Forum:GOTY edition add ons

I admit this might be in the wrong section and if so I apologise.

I have the GOTY edition for the PC and as far as I can tell I have installed all of the add ons (there is a .bsa file for each in the Data subfolder of the Fallout 3 folder.)

However there is no in-game indication that they are working. The suggestion is that I would receive several radio messages pretty much as soon as I left the vault inviting me to enter the various extra areas but infact this has not happened. Is there an easy check (in game or otherwise) to see if these add-ons are actually working?

Make sure the addons are activated in the title screen under "downloads". It may take a minute or so for the radio broadcasts to appear. (I fast-travelled somewhere else and received all of them while fighting raiders) Kamuikaze 23:29, January 12, 2010 (UTC)

Try re-installing them.AreYouGoingToEatThatNuke? 23:46, January 12, 2010 (UTC)AreYouGoingToEatThatNuke%3F

Hi. Ditto re: wrong section. Is there any way of confirming this with the X-Box version? I bought GOTY after (almost) finishing the main game (except for finding Bryan Wilks). I got the message re: the ferryboat (Point Lookout) and that I can now level up to 30 (Broken Steel) but that was all. I only got one disc with GOTY with Installations for Broken Steel and Point Lookout on (No mention of the others). I have since picked up the radio signal at the crashed spaceship but nothing happens (no beam of light etc). Am I missing something, like perhaps another disc or was there only one disc with GOTY? Cheers!
 * you have to walk right into the spaceship, like, get right up in the dead aliens grill. then you'll get beamed up.

Don't forget, with GOTY edition, after you do the install and you're at the launcher, one of the options on the list is "Data Files". You have to click this and check a box for each add-on you wish to use.
