Make sure to install it in Fallout 3's prefix and the following directory (drive_c/Program Files/Bethesda Softworks/Fallout 3/fomm) otherwise it fails to work, at least for me. Now it's time to install FOMM, I used PlayOnLinux for that. Net Framework and have run FO3, skip this section. You can get it with the following command: NET Framework 2, if you intend to have mods then you need FOMM, therefore you need.

And now that you've got your game installed, it's time to do the rest of the things you need if you're going to run Fallout 3 with mods.Д«efore doing anything else, you have to actually run Fallout 3 Launcher and Fallout 3 in order to create the required inis (Fallout.ini and Fallout_Prefs.ini). You need a 1.7 patch otherwise you're in for a world of hurt. Now, while the PlayOnLinux says I don't need a 1.7 patch for a GOTY, I downloaded and installed it with PlayOnLinux anyway, just to be sure.

Repeat the process for DLCs as well (if you have a GOTY game) Navigate to Fallout 3 disc and select setup.exe Sudo mount -o loop /path_to_image/image2.iso /mnt/iso2 Sudo mount -o loop /path_to_image/image1.iso /mnt/iso1 issue the following commands which will create two directories in /mnt and mount the images in them (skip the part for image2/iso2 if you don't have GOTY): Burn an iso image from both of your DVDs (or one if you don't have GOTY) Open K3b or Brasero or whatever it is you use for burning CDs That seems to be the easiest way too, so I'll explain it: Now, here's the thing, when I tried to install from disc, installation failed (twice) so I had to create a DVD iso image, mount it and choose 'Use setup file from my computer'. Start PlayOnLinux, wait until it refreshes, click the install button, search for Fallout 3, select it and click install. If you already installed the game, you can skip this part. If you need better instructions, search for it on Google. I won't provide much info since there are plenty of videos showing this same thing. I'll explain the process for installing Fallout 3 GOTY using PlayOnLinux, I don't like using WINE alone since it tends to be.

ATI/Nvidia graphics driver (I won't explain how to do this, it would take a lifetime) FO3Edit (for making merged patches and cleaning mods): GamesForWindows LIVE Disabler (To make everything work right): Fallout Script Extender (For mods that require it):

Fallout Mod Manager (For load order management): WINE (PlayOnLinux will ease the installation process for some things but you don't have to use it if you don't want to)

A Linux distribution (This should work for Mac too) and PlayOnLinux 4.0.14, the process differs from distro to distro but it's basically the same thing with slight changes.Д«efore we begin you'll need to gather some stuff, so here's what you need: I'll be explaining the process for setting up the game and modding tools on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise with WINE 1.4. I only gave possible solutions I discovered working for me, not definite answers set in stone. Every Linux distribution is different and will this work depends on a bunch of factors. NOTE: While everything I'm about to explain below works perfectly for me, that does not mean it will work perfectly for you as well. It's pretty simple, no hacking stuff or 'super terminal skills' needed. I know that there are a bunch of videos and tutorials mentioning how to run Fallout 3 on Linux using WINE/PlayOnLinux, but none of them explain how to maintain your load order or how to get the mod-required tools/programs/utilities to run in WINE.ДЄnd after seeing that people have problems making Fallout 3 capable of running mods effectively in WINE and/or PlayOnLinux (especially having troubles with FOSE), I thought I should post the way I managed to make everything work right.
