I've been told about the steam edition of Fallout 3 and NV having some compatibility problems with mods, while the retail version seems to work better. Is this accurate or do they behave similarly for modding? Also, can I run both games on a USB drive instead of using the disc when starting them?
Obtain the Steam editions. Fallout 3 requires changes to function properly on current systems, but purchasing the official or updated version allows full modification of the game into a modified version.
Steam versus retail—what exactly are you asking about? You're referring to adapting the entire Fallout 3 experience into a Nintendo version.
theres a mod called the tale of two wastelands that allows you to load fallout 3's game world and story and everything in NV. and Id buy the steam version. look on G2A or Gamesdeal or anyother steam key site for a good price and you can get the steam version on the cheap.
It looks like you're asking about adapting a story concept involving two wastelands, and you're considering using a specific mod organizer called "the one I prefer" because of reliability concerns. Let me know if you'd like help refining that idea!
According to what I understand, it functions with Nexus' Mod Manager. It appears as a standard mod or plugin, and it should work across platforms. Installation is straightforward, including an .exe file for easy setup without needing manual configuration.
I own all fallout titles on Steam, modified versions 3 and above, and have never run into problems—just use NMM. Only when there are too many mods do they cause crashes due to conflicts.
Sure, even though I agree with MO's approach, I still appreciate his unique style. That’s my perspective.
