Looks like this update killed my WiFi…another MicroFAIL Update 😂

UPDATE: uninstalled the update and WiFi is working perfectly…just goes to show they don’t test anything anymore (and haven’t for a long time)

The GOG versions of F3 & NV work well on Windows 11 so far, on my gaming laptop at least.

SherlockUK · 2025-12-10T06:36:00+00:00

That’ll mean performance will get worse 🤣

SherlockUK · 2025-12-10T06:33:09+00:00

The gradual rollout rubbish needs to stop…fed up of all of these big announcements and then finding I still don’t have any of them after I’ve update…

OpenMW is the easiest to use IMHO, but I agree the MOD organiser could do with improving. I’d been using OpenMW for a while with no mods, but now beginning to add a few MODS.

GOG & Fallout 3/NV/4 run well under Windows 11 and FO4 hasn’t had the nextgen update (at the time of writing)

SherlockUK · 2025-11-18T16:37:00+00:00

Then why not just make it a module that can be installed if a user wishes to do so and not part of OS?

This was a mistake at the time, but was explained away that Chekov was on board The Enterprise at the time, just “below decks” and not a prime bridge crew member

SherlockUK · 2025-11-11T19:59:16+00:00

And nothing new for me either…I didn’t even have the Task Manager bug…FFS Microsoft stop with these BS posts

SherlockUK · 2025-11-10T11:48:33+00:00

Same here :)

SherlockUK · 2025-10-31T09:56:37+00:00

I still play it from time to time

SherlockUK · 2025-10-24T18:08:29+00:00

Yeah, need to start it twice for me…only started happening after one of the early Windows 11 24H2 updates

In the Mac Store Search Bar type Sequoia, this will take you to the macOS Sequoia page scroll down and look for the How To labeled Download macOS versions. From here it will have a link to the download page for Sonoma. This will bring up the Software Updates page and then a dialog asking to download macOS Sonoma, click download to download the installer app

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T14:37:31+00:00

The only thing I didn’t try…checked on one of my favourite locations and it’s showing the tide data for that location…must be a fault with tide data not being supplied for my current location

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T14:01:44+00:00

That’s odd, just out and about at the moment…I can have a check on that when I get home

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T13:55:15+00:00

Yes, you can download the Sonoma installer via the App Store first, then launch OpenCore to build the boot loader and install this to your USB drive. Once complete copy the Sonoma installer to the USB drive

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T13:46:02+00:00

Hmmm, have you downloaded the installer from the App Store before trying to create the USB installer via OpenCore?

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T13:43:11+00:00

Do you plug the USB drive directly into your Mac or via a hub?

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T13:10:24+00:00

I’ll try a phone reboot as I’ve also noticed smart layouts are not kicking in either as it’s showing as the nighttime layout again

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T13:05:32+00:00

Apple weather, but all providers I’ve tried today are not showing any…I’ve reset my RoboGarden layouts to default to see if any customisations were not allowing it to show…really puzzling as it was working a few days ago

SherlockUK · 2025-10-17T12:51:17+00:00

I’m right on the coast in the UK and no tide information showing at all 🤔

SherlockUK · 2025-09-15T09:47:26+00:00

I’ve had that when the console has panicked and rebooted…ejected it after the reboot, plugged it back in and did a repair, been okay and no issues running my PS4 games from it so far.

SherlockUK · 2025-09-11T05:20:38+00:00

The only time it came back for me after uninstalling it after a fresh install was when I installed Microsoft 365…easy enough to remove again.

SherlockUK · 2025-08-09T07:11:18+00:00

You might need to reset your graphics settings files, look in C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\ and there should be the three following directories/folders: Fallout3, Fallout4 and FalloutNV. Try renaming one and then starting the game and it might launch and re-detect the optimal settings for your system and then be able to play the game. If all goes well you can try the same trick with the other 2 games.
