| I was never a fan of FO3 but I'm getting pretty damn bored with New Vegas so I decided to go back and mod it. After I got FO3 installed however, I got a nice little notification saying it's incompatible with Windows 10. Fun fun. Any way to fix this? Thanks in advance. |

| How i got it to work is that i kept uninstalling it completely and reinstalling it and it eventually worked. If you dont use enb, try and use the d3d9 fix, then use the injector version of enb. _________________  |

| If you're so bored with NV and want to go back to Fallout 3, why don't you just install Tale Of Two Wastelands? |

| Download games for Windows, after downloading and installing, use the Windows compatibility mode vista or XP. It worked for me

| Tale of Two Wastelands.
It's not the standard, original Fallout 3 but it's pretty much the same thing, with numerous gameplay improvements. You can even ignore all of FNV if you don't wanna play that.

| Download F3 Script Extender and the mod manager, it should work just fine after that, the compatibility settings can help too.
Like some have said, you should try Tale of Two Wastelands, just remember that it is kind of an alpha/beta/don't know what state.
It still has a lot of bug and glitches.
So if you have never really played Fallout 3 then you should play Fallout 3 before using Tale of Two Wastelands.
Up to you, have fun! _________________ "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us"- Gandalf the Bla- I mean the white.  |

| Tale of Two wastelands runs completely stable for me. You have to make sure the mods you add are converted properly. When I finished installing it and all properly converted mods I could plays for hours with no crashes. The only thing I miss is no rumble zones in New Vegas unless its been updated but I doubt it has been yet. Roy said he would get around to it much much later.
