Drivers & Software

[ADyingGod]

I'm unable to play Fallout 3 and New Vegas. I can't even load a save or start a new game. Instant crash to desktop and removing all the mods, tweaks, INI settings or having the game in its vanilla state doesn't seem to have any effect. Rolling back to previous version solves the problem but I don't plan to stick with older drivers just to play a 13 years old game. Any solution to this problem in the next release would be appreciated. I have a 6750 XT. I'm enjoying to overall experience but these minor things adds up.

i hate that they never care about older games when most of pc gamers love playing older games. Don't ruin older games. Care for the new and old the same. . .

CURRENT FIX

Same problem. After updating to the new driver  Fallout 3 and NV don't work.

I've had this problem all week trying to figure out how to at least get past the scrolling wheel during a new game.

Before I started this, I went for a fresh download, deleting everything. All Fallout NV files, including the ones in

%localappdata% . Went to steam, started the download. After downloading went to verify game files. Everytime I ran it, there's one file that needs to be redownloaded, but doesn't. Go to the Download settings in steam. DELETE THE CACHE. It works still currently, no bugs. Not sure about mods nor Fallout 3 but that's the next test, and at least I can wake up to the Doc finally. I hope this helps guys!!!

24.5.1 still doesn't work - but in the Release Notes under known issues now says
* Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas may fail to launch. [Hotfix pending verification]

gives me hope a hotfix is in the works...

[backFireX64]

It now says:

Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas may fail to launch.[Resolution targeted for 24.6.1]

So next driver most probably.

We get a fix almost 2 months after the show releases. IDK why AMD did not bother to fix this earlier because they knew all the fallout games would see renewed interest. Better late than never. 

[0v3rkill]

you need 23.12.1 to play fallout 3. keep reporting this problem and saying 23.12.1 fixe it so they know.

use the feedback option on your videos card. Forum doesn't help much

Just giving this another bump…but it looks like AMD has noticed at least. Still, I spent all day yesterday modding NV with the DXVK mod and No-Stutter but the game is just too unstable. 

Feeling sad, because I can’t jingle jangle jingle. 

[0v3rkill]

no need for mods. its not the game. Its the amd driver. you need 23.12.1. report problem using feedback on your video card

[0v3rkill]

keep reporting this problem using your feedback button on your video card drivers in home tab and say 23.12.1 fixe it so they know.

[0v3rkill]

23.12.1 fixes the problem. I tested yesterday again.

[darkwombat]

Oblivion is not working properly too now.

[cpurpe91]

This would make sense. Aren't they all on the same engine, and DX9?

[Xylomindus]

Je  viens d'essayer avec la version 24.5.1 et toujours le même problème...

[cpurpe91]

In the release notes they note that a fix is coming. I just wish it came sooner.

[Xylomindus]

I’ve seen the information, I’m waiting for the fix. I don’t trust them

[cpurpe91]

That is fair. In my experience when, they say they will fix something, they intend to do so.

[Xylomindus]

The fact that they finally recognize the problem is the first step

[Fakner12b]

Anyone have any idea when the next drivers update is getting released? I would like to get back to my game.

No crash with 24.6.1 driver, they fixed the issue. Using an rx 6900 xt gpu and windows 11.

[cpurpe91]

Same with 7900 XT
