I never found that building, there is no building beside it, all ruins. Anyways. lol

You can't get to it by just walking out of the National Archives as it is blocked off by ruins. Basically just look left of the Archives on your map (so the river) and go right a little and you are there.

Guys I am doing the Fort Constantine Quest and I'm not sure if I have glitched the game or not. I got two of the keys without killing people (Dave and that pimp guy) and I stole another guy's key (Ted's). I killed Mister Crowley though (and all the other ghouls) because I got that deal from Tenpenny. Do I have everything I need to assault the Fort?

Now I am confused, I went to Mister Crowley and got the quest "You Gotta Shoot Em In The Head". Is this the same quest your doing, killing all those guys to get the key. I am not sure if I want to do that, is there a way around it, a better way to do it?

Sry for another reply (edit was gone)

I am at the point, I have got all the guys he needs. I am at the point where I need Ted Strayer or whatever his name is, but he is fleeing, and I don't want to shoot him. Is there anything I can do?

Yes since I am trying to be good this first time around, I didn't want to shoot anybody either. I got Dave's key without killing him, bought that pimp guy's key, but I went along with Tenpenny so I killed Mister Crowley but didn't get any bad karma. For Ted, I thought I was going to have to kill him, but during the middle of the night when he was sleeping, I stole his key from him and got out of Rivet City scotch free.

Haven't played this game properly in a while. Just had a good 3 hour play session, very fun stuff. I really can't be bothered with side quests, that's just not my play style however I'm loving playing through the main story.

I'm finding it quite hard though, very often I'll find myself surrounded with very little health, no stimpacks and not much ammo. However it isn't frustrating because there's a quicksave/quickload. EVERY game should have this.

anyone find the UFO yet and get the alien ray gun? it kills everything in like 1 to 2 hits. I found a second crash site as well, but no UFO, just extra alien ammo. Have like 200 shots with it now.

Also, just came across some dinosaur looking thing. Its like 10 feet tall, has a tail, and long arms and legs. It was wandering outside near vault 112.

You might be finding it quite hard exactly because you didn't do the sidequests. That way you are a higher level, have more health and stimpacks and more ammo.

I found it hard from the beginning. The game goes against my play style. I'm no really an rpg gamer.

I'm stuck on the part where you have to get the G.E.C.K. from one of the vaults. I've got inside the vault, but there's SO MANY DAMN SUPER MUTANTS. I just don't have enough ammo or stimpacks to take them all out, and I have no idea where to find this G.E.C.K. thing. I tried sneaking past them all with the stealth boy, but it either runs out, or there's a patrol which is near impossible to get past.

In the end I just had to run out, only just making it with barely any HP, I'm a level 10 or 11 I think. Are there any easier ways to do this part? It's too frustrating, I remember getting to parts like this in Oblivion, no fun atall!

I cant remember exactly but are you are the part where you need the find WHERE it is by looking on the computer terminal? IF so, check the "87" entry, i cant remember exactly what its called.

If you have already done that, and need to actually retrieve the G.E.C.K., i asked Hawkes (the super mutant you will let out) to go into the radiated room since he has tolerance to it.

Ah, I remember hearing him on the intercom as I was inside the Vault, but there were LOADS of super mutants chasing me/approaching me so I didn't have time to look for him. I'll get more ammo and go in again. :p Thanks.

Yeah, go back to him once that little area is clear. Get him out and he will take you where the GECK is, he will take most the damage on the way and you can easily take the mutants out.

Completed the game.

Really enjoyed the game, kind of wishing I hadn't rushed the main quests and had done some of the side ones, but the game isn't really what I look for anyway so the fact I even completed it is kind of amazing.

Thumbs up from me!

Just got it yesterday for the pc. People weren't kidding when they said it was like Oblivion! That's ok though, I liked Oblivion. I can't wait for the mods to come out.

I got it along with FarCry2, which really didn't grab me, but Fallout 3 has me really hooked!

    • BATorrent 3.0.2

      By Copernic · Posted

      BATorrent 3.0.2 by Razvan Serea BATorrent is a lightweight, open-source BitTorrent client built with modern C++ and Qt 6, offering a clean, fast, and privacy-focused alternative to traditional torrent apps. It supports magnet links, .torrent files, resume data, sequential downloading, per-file priorities, and even imports from qBittorrent. Power users benefit from integrated RSS auto-download with regex filtering, duplicate detection, and automatic tracker lists from Stremio. Streaming is seamless thanks to auto-detected players like VLC and IINA. BATorrent includes robust VPN tools—interface binding, auto-detection for WireGuard-based services like Mullvad and NordLynx, kill switch, proxy support, and IP filtering. A full WebUI enables remote control, while integrations with Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby automate library updates. With themes, speed scheduling, system-tray alerts, and cross-platform support for Windows, Linux, and macOS, BATorrent delivers a polished, high-performance torrenting experience. BATorrent features: Core .torrent file and magnet link support Resume data — picks up where you left off after restart Import torrents from qBittorrent Create .torrent files from any file or folder Sequential download mode Per-file priority control (skip, low, normal, high) Seed ratio limits with auto-pause DHT, PEX, UPnP, NAT-PMP RSS Auto-Download Subscribe to RSS feeds — automatically download new torrents as they appear Regex filters — match only what you want (e.g. 1080p|720p, S01E\d+) Per-feed settings — custom save path, check interval (5–1440 min), enable/disable Auto-download — matched items are downloaded automatically in the background Supports magnet links, .torrent URLs, and tags Tray notifications when items are auto-downloaded Duplicate detection — never downloads the same item twice Stremio Stremio Addon System pre-installed — works out of the box Auto tracker list from ngosang/trackerslist Streaming Play while downloading — stream video files before the download is complete Supports mp4, mkv, avi, mov, wmv, flv, webm, m4v, ts Auto-detects installed players (VLC, IINA, system default) VPN & Privacy Interface binding — lock torrent traffic to a specific network interface (e.g. tun0) Auto VPN detection — identifies VPN interfaces (tun, tap, WireGuard, Mullvad, NordLynx, ProtonVPN) Kill switch — automatically pauses all torrents if the VPN interface drops Auto-resume — resumes only the torrents paused by the kill switch when VPN reconnects Proxy support — SOCKS5 and HTTP proxy with optional authentication IP filtering — load P2P blocklists to block unwanted IP ranges Protocol encryption (enabled / forced / disabled) WebUI Remote management — control torrents from any browser at http://localhost:8080 REST API with JSON responses Add torrents via magnet link or .torrent upload Pause, resume, remove torrents remotely View peers and files per torrent Dark theme matching the desktop app HTTP Basic Auth with SHA-256 password hashing Configurable port and remote access (localhost vs 0.0.0.0) Interface 3 themes: Dark, Light, Midnight (bat/vampire aesthetic) Real-time speed graph Detailed panel with tabs: General, Peers, Files, Trackers Filter bar: search by name, filter by state (Active, Downloading, Seeding, Paused, Finished) Drag & drop .torrent files and magnet links Drag & drop reorder in torrent list System tray with notifications (download complete, kill switch events, RSS auto-downloads) Splash screen with bat animation Bilingual: English and Portuguese (BR), auto-detected from system locale Bandwidth Scheduler Alternative speed limits — set different download/upload limits on a schedule Time range — configure active hours (e.g. 01:00 to 07:00), supports overnight ranges Per-day control — choose which days of the week the schedule applies Automatically switches between normal and alternative speeds Media Server Integration Plex — automatically trigger library scan when a download completes Jellyfin / Emby — same automatic library refresh via API Configure server URL and authentication token/key in Settings System Cross-platform: Windows, Linux, macOS Auto-shutdown — automatically shut down PC when all downloads complete (60s cancellable countdown) Auto-update system (AppImage on Linux, installer on Windows, DMG on macOS) CLI arguments: pass .torrent files or magnet: URIs directly Keyboard shortcuts: Space to toggle pause, Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+O to open BATorrent 3.0.2 changelog: Phone pairing & WebUI The browser WebUI was reskinned to match the desktop app — same dark palette, Inter font, flat surfaces, the real BATorrent logo (it was a random bat before), and a proper magnet icon. It now looks like the same product, not a separate dashboard. Pairing is one tap and zero typing: the generated WebUI password is now copyable, and the QR code carries the credentials — scanning it from your phone logs straight in (no typing the IP or password), then drops the credentials from the address bar. Search Two new providers: RuTor (CIS sources, no login, via a public TorAPI relay) and Torrents-CSV. Results are sorted by seeders (healthiest first), and each search now times out after 15 s so one dead provider can't hang the UI. Files & trackers Per-file priority is back: right-click a file in the detail panel to set Skip / Low / Normal / High. Rename an individual file inside a torrent (double-click or the file menu), separate from renaming the torrent. Remove a tracker from a torrent (the ✕ on a tracker row); adding was already there. Smart Paste on Ctrl+V — paste a magnet, a 40-char info-hash, or a .torrent URL straight from the clipboard and it's added immediately (text fields still paste text normally). Covers & titles Anime fansub naming ([Group] Title - NN) now resolves to the right show. Audio channel layouts in titles (DDP5.1, 7.1, …) are stripped so they don't pollute cover matching. Under the hood The legacy QWidget interface is gone. QML had been the only UI since 3.0.0 (reachable old code lived behind a hidden --legacy flag); with parity confirmed, the entire QWidget layer — main window, every dialog, the theme manager — was removed (~13,400 lines). The four restored actions above were features that backend already supported but the QML port had never wired. macOS: the WebUI password hash moved out of the keychain into app settings, so launching the app no longer pops a login-keychain password prompt on unsigned builds. The actual password still lives in the keychain. Cleanup: ~400 orphaned translation strings and a batch of dead code removed; internal duplication collapsed; an ARCHITECTURE.md added for contributors. Unit / security / memory tests and the ASan/UBSan/TSan sanitizers stay green.

      How about a global switch to turn the awful things off instead of a registry hack? Then everyone wins.

      This doesn't strike me as so shocking when... " IT admins do have some control over this rollout. If they choose to opt out, devices in their tenant won't automatically get the dreaded Copilot app"
