Meanwhile my lonely ass been sitting over here absolutely loathing Fallout: New Vegas since its release. I did not like that game. I probably would today if I got over myself and tried playing it again.

do you have the steam version or gog? i played the steam version on windows 11 last year and had no more problems than usual. also if you’re using the steam version, you might have to make sure it’s not installed within Program Files or Program Files (x86). those install locations can cause problems with mods.

you might also benefit from installing the 4gb patch in addition to IStewieAI’s engine tweaks. a lot of the mods in the first few sections of the viva new vegas guide are pretty much essential in order to play the game with minimal bugs and crashes. also some of the “crash fixing” mods cause problems in windows 10 and 11.

hopefully one of the above things works. i had to find a lot of those things out the hard way, it can be a pretty finicky game. really fun though.

GoG, but I really appreciate you trying to help. I already tried the 4GB patch and I don't remember if I tried IStewieAI because it's been over a year since I last tried running the game, and I have ADHD. I'll look into that and the rest. Thanks.
