Runs perfectly out of the box.
The game itself saves, but when you play the game on a different operating systems it does not cloud save to continue where you left off.
Runs amazingly, no issues what so ever. My controller works perfect, even if it is plugged in to my PC before I launch the game or I plug it in after I launch the game.
Runs and plays pretty good.
Works right out of the box, the most annoying things I do encounter is my desktop cursor is in the game along with the Dead Space cursor (just move a cursor to any corner, if you're playing on controller.) And 2nd annoying issue for me, NOT sure if its only happening to me, but the game freezes time to time, but overall it is still playable.
It worked for me for a while and then the game freezes, not sure if its my hardware or the game.
So, I did play around for while how to launch a game and make it playable, and I hope this works for other people. This instructions is ONLY for FO3 NOT FO3 GOTY.
Obviously, of course you will need to download Fallout 3 on steam to able to do the other steps.
You will need to download the Xlive.dll
here is the the link where you can download it from: https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout3/mods/22591?tab=files
Now, once you have downloaded your Xlive.dll and extracted it, copy it, and paste it to the following: $HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/Fallout 3
Now, once you have done that, and before you launch a game, you will need to do couple of more steps is to right click on the game and select properties, and type this custom launch command: PROTON_USE_WINED3D=11 %command%
Once, you have pasted a command, and last step is go to compatibility on games properties and enable a "Force the use of specific steam play compatibility tool" and select which proton you would be using the way you chose the proton on steam settings.
Enjoy.
I am really not good explaining, but I do want to help others how I figured out in my own way, but I sure do hope this instructions will help.
No need to tinker or tweak anything.
No need to install 3rd party scripts to change stuff in your files to make the game work. Runs out of the box perfectly, basically plug and play.
Works right out of the box. And runs and plays extremely good. I only would have some odd camera bug once in a while when panning my camera around to check the surroundings or when on the move, but other than that, it works flawlessly.
