About this mod

Face it, Fallout 3 has a lot of problems. But it\\\'s probably one the funnest games to play. I had a lot of issues getting this game going. But here is what my settings ended up. In order for me to play Fallout 3 without any problems at all.

Permissions and credits
My Pc Specs are as fallow.

Windows 7 - 64bit
AMD FX 6100 Six-Core Processor
8Gigs of Ram
XFX AMD Radeon HD 7750

First I must explain how horrible my game was. I was only maybe able to play the game for about 5 minutes or 10 tops. Before crashing to desktop. Same would happen when I would enter or leave a room, at completely random times. This is my first time attempting to do this on this site. So this contains my Fallout.ini and I\'m also giving you a link to.

http://www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php

This is what the software (free) developer says this application does. I used it myself and I was finally able to play my game without problems, with all my mods, graphic enhancing mods for hours at full resolution and graphics at ultra.

I originally wrote this tool for a friend of mine who needed it. This very little tool patches x86 executables in order to let them have 4GB (instead of only 2) of virtual memory on x64 platforms. This tool comes very handy for applications which need a great amount of virtual memory like games, 3D renderization, multimedia etc. To gain these 2GB, you just have to use this tool to patch the executable (*.exe file) of the software you want to have these additional GBs of virtual memory. It can be used by clicking on it and choosing the file or through command line (e.g.: \"4gb_patch file.exe\"). It automatically creates a backup copy of the original executable.

Why things are this way on x64 is easy to explain. On x86 applications have 2GB of virtual memory out of 4GB (the other 2GB are reserved for the system). On x64 these two other GB can now be accessed by 32bit applications. In order to achieve this, a flag has to be set in the file\'s internal format. This is, of course, very easy for insiders who do it every day with the CFF Explorer. This tool was written because not everybody is an insider, and most probably a lot of people don\'t even know that this can be achieved. Even I wouldn\'t have written this tool if someone didn\'t explicitly ask me to.

I do want to thank the site, NTCore for the program they created.

Also before doing any of this back - up game saves. As after I up these setting into the game and ran the program. Windows Game Live was disabled.

All I am providing is my own .ini file and a link. Do whatever you want with the .ini Just thought i would share.
