Part 1: Changing things in your game files #1

1. FIRST, install either Fallout 3 or Fallout 3: game of The Year Edition. It's unconfirmed if you don't need to download it first or if you can do it while it is downloading, so if you do these steps while it's downloading, It will not be my fault for what happens.2. Go to your hard drive (Which ever one you have Steam games on)3. If you have a 64-bit Windows 8 or 8.1 device, open the folder "Program Files (x86)"If you have a 32-bit Windows 8 or 8.1 device, open the folder "Program Files"4. Open the folder "Steam"5. Open the folder "SteamApps"6. Open the folder "common"7. Open the folder "Fallout 3"8. Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "FalloutLauncher" (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "FalloutLauncher.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows 7" (That's correct WINDOWS 7) and then exit out of FalloutLauncher Properties.9. Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "Fallout3" (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "Fallout3.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows Vista (Service Pack 1)" and then exit out of Fallout3 Properties.10. Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "Fallout3 - Garden of Eden Creation Kit" (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "Fallout3 - Garden of Eden Creation Kit.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows 7" and then exit out of Fallout3 - Garden of Eden Creation Kit Properties.11. Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "GDFInstall" (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "GDFInstall.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" and then exit out of GDFInstall Properties.12. Open the folder "VCRedist" Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "vcredist_x86" (It's could be named something else for Windows 8 or 8.1 32-bit devices) (NOTE: It sometimes is named "vcredist_x86.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows Vista" and then exit out of vcredist_x86 Properties.13. Open the folder "DotNetFX" Click (DON'T DOUBLE CLICK!) then Right click the Application called "dotnetfx3_x64" (For 32-bit users, it's called "dotnetfx3". It should still be the same as what to do for the 64-bit users, but if not, I'm sorry) (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "dotnetfx3_x64.exe") Choose the option "Properties" Click on Compatibility and change the Compatibility mode to "Windows 7" and then exit out of dotnetfx3 Properties.14. Now, go back and open the folder "VCRedist" and this time, double click on "vcredist_x86" (I don't know what it's called for a 32-bit Windows 8 or 8.1 device, but I would guess either "vcredist or "vcredist_x86") (NOTE: It's sometimes is named "vcredist_x86.exe") and allow it to install to go onto your hard drive15. Now, go back and open the folder "DotNetFX" and this time, double click on "dotnetfx_x64" (For 32-bit users, it's called "dotnetfx3") (NOTE: It's sometimes called "dotnetfx_x64.exe") and allow it to install onto your hard drive.Congrats! You are done with the FIRST part of changing you game files. We have some other things to do before we need to do more things in the game files.
