A Possible Fix For The GECK Installation (Fallout 3)

If you tried to install the GECK for Fallout 3, issues may have prevented the installation of the main file and update from working. The comment below, made by a now-deleted account on Nexus, explains what to do. It worked for me.

Fallout 3 - Cut Content (DC Ruins)

I watched this interesting video, made by TriangleCity, which talks about the cut content of Fallout 3. It's focused on the DC Ruins. 

First 2024 Post

Hello, everyone. It's been a while since I posted here. This is the first post of 2024 and I hope to produce for the channel what I had planned for 2023 (a rather complicated year for me).

The Fallout 3 mod showcase continues. It's funny that some of these videos take longer to edit than 2 or 3 episodes of my old Fallout 3 playthrough.

Other games besides Fallout may appear on the channel this year, but I don't want to promise anything. The videos will appear on the channel by surprise.

Finally, and I know those who watch the channel are waiting, the New Vegas playthrough (with lots of mods) is still in the plans. Many factors have delayed this project such as real-life, technical issues, and the quantity of mods being released and updated.

That's all for today.

I'm Back.

 Hello, everyone.

I'm slowly getting back to posting videos on the channel. Most of them will be videos showing mods I've used or those being released for Fallout 3 (the ones I find interesting). No new playthroughs yet, but that's the plan for the next few months (and not just Fallout). There will still be a playthrough of Fallout: New Vegas and it will be so long that we'll all die of old age. I'm analyzing what I want to add to the game, the compatibility details, and more.

That's all, folks.

Fallout 3 - Alton (IL) - The Mysterious Book In Houck Residence

If you played the Alton mod for Fallout 3, chances are you found a Mysterious Book in Houck Residence (the southeast area of the map). If you try to pick the book, you'll hear an unlocking sound, but nothing happens. Upon some search in the comment section of the mod page (using the forum), I found that the content related to the book was cut before release. Ignore that book, and don't spend 15 minutes trying to figure things out (like I did).

Missing DTS Surround Option Through SPDIF Fix (Windows 10/11)

I noticed the DTS Surround audio option was missing from my computer. After hours of searching for a solution, the video showed a quick solution.

In case you can't watch the video, follow the instructions below:

1 - Download the latest version of APO Driver (your version will probably be x64).

2 - Extract the executable from the zip/rar. Maybe Windows or Antivirus wants to fight the program, so disable or put APO as an exception or in a white list.

3 - Run the program and advance (Add or Remove) until you reach the window below. Select DTS Connect APO and DTS Digital Entertainment. Click Next and wait for the program to complete the process before closing.

4 - Open FXConfirgurator and select Realtek Digital Output (Realtek High Definition Audio) as in the images below. Go to the bottom right corner, and under Tool, click on Product Config Tool select DTS Connect (SPDIF), and click "Apply ProductSettings to Selected End Points."

5 - Go to "Sound" and select the DTS Interactive option. Now you can send the 5.1 signal through the SPDIF output (Optical Cable) and to your Home Theater.

That is all, folks!

A fix for GTA San Andreas not loading or crashing with RoSA installed.

For some reason, I could no longer start GTA San Andreas with RoSA installed. The game only worked when the folder "RoSA Project Evolved - Exterior" was disabled in the ModLoader.

After scouring the internet for a solution, I found that the mod NoDep solved the problem. The Windows Data Execution Prevention (DEP) prevented the mod from working (probably the "ImgLimitAdjuster.asi" file).

I extracted the "_noDEP.asi" to the game folder, and everything is fine.
