Fallout 3 Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints

How do I get started on this add-on?

  • 1 of 5: First, make sure the add-on is active.
  • 2 of 5: On the game's launcher menu, select "Data Files" and make sure there's a checkmark in the box to the left of Anchorage.esm.
  • 3 of 5: Click "OK," then run the game and load a save. (If you start a new game, you'll have to wait until you exit Vault 101 to get started on this add-on.)
  • 4 of 5: Wait for a pop-up window to inform you that there's a new distress call being broadcast across the wasteland. This will start you on the quest "Aiding the Outcasts."
  • 5 of 5: NOTE: A bug may prevent you from getting the quest when the pop-up window appears. If so, restore a save and try again.
