I finally finished dl'ing it from "Steam" last night, installed and runs perfectly.
For some reason... I got the Russian copy but theres an "update" for it called Fallout3-Trivium.
Just extract the Trivium files into the install directory and run the "fallout.crack.patch.exe" or whatever its called (its close to that) and then run the game.
Follow these instructions they worked perfectly for me.
-----------------------------------------------
Quote:1. Download any Fallout 3 (Russian/english) 2. Open up 'RUN' 3. Type in: cmd and enter it 4. Type in/Run: [dvd]

setup /lang=en (replace [dvd] with the drive letter of where the fallout 3 image is mounted on) 5. Wait for everything to install (End will take 10-20 minutes. So don't try closing it out in the thought of it being frozen. Note: This doesn't ALWAYS happen) 6. Download Trivium crack (

Go into Data folder (within the fallout 3 installation folder) 11. Select RUSSIAN.esp and rename it to english.esp 12. Run it and enjoy

Oh and BTW, "steam" seems to be running slowly/inconsistently, the seeders are about 1/20th of the leechers so its slow going. Using Vuze I got to a constant down of about 40k-80k tho.
