UPDATE: 12/12/09

Regards the Menu Freeze or Jessi not talking and just greeting you. If you experience this bug then follow the instructions to reset her that's in the manual or below in the previous update then when you re-enable her avoid using the GUARD HERE function and instead use chill out instead. Sleepytime as worked out that this is causing the problems and for more info refer to Jessi's discussions on the matter.

Thanks.



UPDATE: 15/08/09

MENU FREEZE:
A few people seem to have a case of the Lazyitus lately :)
If you have the issue where Jessi's menus lock up then could you please take another look at her known issues read me for a work around.

This should be the first thing you do when you encounter an issue.

!!! Please install the new esp for version 4, this should fix the menu freeze. !!!
Please keep in mind i'm only having editing rights for this Jessi, if authors have done translations and conversions i can't provide support. You are welcome to message me, to ask how to fix her.

FLASHING TEXTURES:
Many people seem to be new to fallout 3 and have problems with flashing textures or big red ? around Jessi.

Here's the Solution.

First install this little program: ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated.

Link:
http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=944

Make sure you download the Automatic version and run it just the once. Doing this will save you much heartache in the long run with mods in general.

Now that's over onto your main problem.

Basically you have made the classic mistake of not copying the files over correctly and/or not clicking Overwrite to ALL when prompted.

So re-install Jessi and make sure that this time you drag and drop Jessi's DATA folder into your Fallout 3 folder (Don't copy it into Fallout 3s Data folder)

Now when you get a overwrite prompt click YES to ALL. Don't worry because all that's overwritten is file attributes or Jessi's existing files if a previous install was done.

If you do not click overwrite then you will for sure get the problems of the Big Red ?.

Update:
Setting Her Height
___________________

Some people have asked how to set her Height to A smaller size and some to a taller size, Heres How.

Approach Jessi and enter the Console(Tilde Key). Now Click on Jessi so her ID appears at the top of the Screen.

Now Type: SetScale (Size)

Size can be anything (Don't Include the Brackets ofc) but heres some Guidelines.

Child 0.95 (Or there abouts)
Adult 1.00
Fawkes 1.3 (Or there abouts)

When you are done Press Enter. If you wish to try another size then simple press the up arrow on your keyboard and edit the number and try again.

Note: When you save your game the changes will be saved also.


IMPORTANT
__________

If you load your game in Rivet then make sure you exit Rivet (Change Cell) then go back before hiring Jessi (Very Important) or she will have issues with her gun and her heal menu.

But the best way is to just save outside before enabling Jessi.

CLEANING:
You will NEED to clean your saved game for this Version if upgrading from ANY previous Versions including RCs and Releases and Instructions are included for cleaning your saved games..

For Version 3.5 this is a must do i'm afraid because folder structures have changed and some dialogues have been re-done which may cause conflicts if you don't first clean your saves.
___________________________________________________

TEXTURE MISMATCH:
If you have body/face/hand mismatch issues then try adding this to your Fallout.Ini file located in the same folder as your saved games and make sure you make a backup just in-case.

Add this in Fallout.ini under the line: STestFile1=Fallout3.esm

bLoadFaceGenHeadEGTFiles=1

Use a Text editor like notepad to edit and save Fallout.ini and always make sure you back up Fallout.ini before editing.

NEW MESHES:
Please make sure you Install ALL of Jessi's Main Folder as some of the Meshes and Textures have been updated to there latest versions.
____________________________________________________

WARNING:
As with all mods. Backup your saves before activating just in-case theres some major Plot/Game busting bug there. I doubt it but you never know. You have been warned! LoL.
