DoubleYou Posted September 14, 2015 Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) In my research with Skyrim INI settings, I figured it would be fun to apply what I've learned to Fallout 3. From this I have created a the following, which is a comprehensive list of all valid settings for Fallout 3(any settings not listed here are invalid and not recognized by the game) along with their default values, with floating point values estimated to four decimal places. I have also added relavent comments left by Bethesda from the Fallout_default.ini file and some of my own. It is not recommended to use these as your INI Files! Well, actually, on second thought, I totally recommend everyone replace their FalloutPrefs.ini with the one given here and selecting your Fallout Launcher preset again, as the default INI generation mechanism makes a royal mess out of the FalloutPrefs.ini file. Extra tip: Fallout 3 allows you to make a Custom.ini that works just like the SkyrimCustom.ini if you care to do so. Please note that this is not the same as the Fallout_default.ini in the Fallout 3 game directory, which is copied as your default Fallout.ini file at startup. These are the default settings that are hardcoded into the game itself if the setting is not specified to be some other value. In the case of the FalloutPrefs.ini, most of the defaults are determined by the values assigned when pressing the Defaults button in the in-game settings. The rest were gathered from the saveini command with a blank INI with three exceptions. With three exceptions. Those three exceptions are the following, which are required to exist in the Fallout.ini for Fallout 3 not to CTD at startup. It is assumed that the default settings for these three settings are erroneous, and therefore the values from Fallout_default.ini were used. These three settings are: [Archive] SArchiveList=Fallout - Textures.bsa, Fallout - Meshes.bsa, Fallout - Voices.bsa, Fallout - Sound.bsa, Fallout - MenuVoices.bsa, Fallout - Misc.bsa [Fonts] SFontFile_2=Textures\Fonts\Monofonto_Large.fnt SFontFile_7=Textures\Fonts\Baked-in_Monofonto_Large.fntWithout these settings, Fallout 3 will CTD at startup. It should also be noted that four settings also had to be added to the FalloutPrefs.ini in order to satisfy the Fallout Launcher that it needed to detect game settings, or are only used by the Fallout Launcher and therefore reproduced here, as they do not affect the main Fallout 3 game in any way: [Display] sD3DDevice="AMD Radeon HD 8650G" ;This is the name of my video card, which would be the name of your video card. This is the only setting required for the Fallout Launcher not to run its detection. [Launcher] bEnableFileSelection=0 bShowAllResolutions=0 uLastAspectRatio=1 ;These three setting are only used by the Fallout Launcher, and these are the defaults. They have been changed in the FalloutPrefs.ini below to their most desirable values.Now here are the default INIs: Fallout.ini Reveal hidden contents [AnimationWarning] bClampWarning=0

Kelmych Posted September 15, 2015 Posted September 15, 2015 Do you recommend changing the Fallout_Defaulf.ini for Fallout 3 based on these? DomI understand correctly that the PalloutPrefs.ini here should replace the existing version and then the Launcher rerun to add or replace values based on the capability of the graphics card?
DoubleYou Posted September 15, 2015 Author Posted September 15, 2015 I haven't recreated a fixed up Fallout_Default.ini for Fallout 3 yet, although I will soon. As of now, yes, replace FalloutPrefs.ini with one here, then select your preset. The end result should not have a bunch of extra settings, which will show that you did it right.
DoubleYou Posted September 16, 2015 Author Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) Okay, so seeing how messed up Fallout 3 INIs are, I decided to clean them up a bit. I have gone through the Fallout_default.ini, which is applied to both Fallout.ini and erroneously to FalloutPrefs.ini at Fallout Launcher startup (most annoying) and removed all the erroneous settings and all lines that are not different from the default. The result is given below: Fallout_default.ini Reveal hidden contents [Archive] sArchiveList=Fallout - Textures.bsa, Fallout - Meshes.bsa, Fallout - Voices.bsa, Fallout - Sound.bsa, Fallout - MenuVoices.bsa, Fallout - Misc.bsa [Audio] fASFadeOutTime=10 ;default is 5 fDialogMaxDistance=1800 ;default is 50000 fDialogMinDistance=125 ;default is 70 fFilterDistortionGain=-7.5 ;default is -18.2 fMinSoundVel=90 ;default is 10 fPlayerFootVolume=0.65 ;default is 0.9 fRegionLoopFadeInTime=5.0 ;default is 0.6 fRegionLoopFadeOutTime=5.0 ;default is 1 iCollisionSoundTimeDelta=150 ;default is 333 iRadioUpdateInterval=250 ;default is 75 [BlurShader] fAlphaAddInterior=0.7 ;default is 0.5 [BlurShaderHDR] fBlurRadius=7 ;default is 4 fBrightClamp=0.225 ;default is 0.35 fBrightScale=2.25 ;default is 1.5 fEyeAdaptSpeed=0.5 ;default is 0.7 fGrassDimmer=1.5 ;default is 1.3 fSunlightDimmer=1.5 ;default is 1.3 fTargetLUM=1 ;default is 1.2 fTreeDimmer=1 ;default is 1.2 iNumBlurpasses=1 ;default is 2 [Controls] bAlwaysRunByDefault=1 ;default is 0 [Display] bAllowScreenShot=1 ;default is 0 bLODNoiseAniso=1 ;default is 0 fDefault1stPersonFOV=55 ;default is 75 fEyeEnvMapLOD1=500 ;default is 45 fEyeEnvMapLOD2=800 ;default is 65 fLightLODMaxStartFade=3500 ;default is 1200 fNoLODFarDistanceMin=100 ;default is 1700 fPipboy1stPersonFOV=47 ;default is 68 fShadowLODMaxStartFade=1000 ;default is 300 fSpecularLODMaxStartFade=2000 ;default is 600 iDebugTextTopBottomOffset=20 ;default is 10 iLocation X=5 ;default is 0 iLocation Y=5 ;default is 0 [Fonts] sFontFile_1=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Large.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_2=Textures\Fonts\Monofonto_Large.fnt ;default is bugged, likely Data\Fonts\Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_3=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Medium.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_Medium.fnt sFontFile_4=Textures\Fonts\Monofonto_VeryLarge02_Dialogs2.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Monofonto_VeryLarge02_Dialogs2.fnt sFontFile_5=Textures\Fonts\Fixedsys_Comp_uniform_width.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Fixedsys_Comp_uniform_width.fnt sFontFile_6=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_VL_dialogs.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Glow_Monofonto_VL_dialogs.fnt sFontFile_7=Textures\Fonts\Baked-in_Monofonto_Large.fnt ;default is bugged, likely Data\Fonts\Baked-in_Monofonto_Large.fnt sFontFile_8=Textures\Fonts\Glow_Futura_Caps_Large.fnt ;default is Data\Fonts\Glow_Futura_Caps_Large.fnt [FootIK] fFootRaisedGain=0.9 ;default is 0.2 fGroundAscendingGain=0.4 ;default is 0.35 fGroundDescendingGain=0.4 ;default is 0.3 fOnOffGain=0.5 ;default is 0.01 fRagdollFeedback=0.7 ;default is 0.9 [General] bAnimateDoorPhysics=0 ;default is 1 bEnableBoundingVolumeOcclusion=1 ;default is 0 bUseThreadedTempEffects=1 ;default is 0 sCharGenQuest=0001f388 ;default is 00014E85 sEssentialFileCacheList=Data\Fallout.esm|Data2\Fallout.esm, Data\Music\Special\MainTitle.mp3, Data\Fallout - Sound.bsa|Fallout - Sound.bsa, Data\Fallout - Voices.bsa|Fallout - Voices.bsa, Data\Fallout - MenuVoices.bsa|Fallout - MenuVoices.bsa ;default is Data\Fallout3.esm, Data\Fallout - Misc.bsa, Data\Fallout - Sound.bsa, Data\final_master_xml.dat, Data\Shaders\shaderpackage.sdp, Data\Music\Battle\*, Data\Music\Battle\Finale\*, Data\Music\Base\*, Data\Music\Dungeon\*, Data\Music\Endgame\*, Data\Music\Exp sIntroMovie=Fallout INTRO Vsk.bik ;default is blank sUnessentialFileCacheList=Data\Fallout - Meshes.bsa|Data2\Fallout - Meshes.bsa, Data\Fallout - Textures.bsa|Data2\Fallout - Textures.bsa, Data\Music\Dungeon\*.xma, Data\Music\Base\*.mp3, Data\Music\Battle\*.mp3, Data\Music\Explore\*.mp3, Data\Music\Public\*.mp3, Data\Music\Special\*.mp3 ;default is Data\Fallout - Meshes.bsa, Data\Fallout - Textures.bsa [Grass] fGrassMinStartFadeDistance=0 ;default is 400 fTexturePctThreshold=0 ;default is 0.3 [HAVOK] fMaxTime=0.016 ;default is 0.167 [Interface] fMenuBackgroundOpacity=0.76 ;default is 0.8 fMenuBGBlurRadius=2 ;default is 0.01 fPopUpBackgroundOpacity=0.87 ;default is 1 fRSMFaceSliderDefaultMax=3.5 ;default is 5 fRSMFaceSliderDefaultMin=-3.5 ;default is -5 [InterfaceFX] fBlurIntensityHUD=1.2 ;default is 1.5 fBlurRadiusMenus=0.3 ;default is 2 fDefaultBurstIntensity=2 ;default is 3 fMiniBurstDuration=200 ;default is 150 fMiniBurstIntensity=1.5 ;default is 2 ;pulse effect fPulseBrightenIntensity=0.25 ;default is 0.1 fPulseRadiusIntensity=0.5 ;default is 0.02 fPulseRate=0.0006 ;default is 0.0003 fScreenLightBaseIntensity=0.6 ;default is 0.3 fScreenLightRadius=6 ;default is 32 ;pipboy menu transitions fShudderChance=0.2 ;default is the same fVertHoldChance=0.08 ;default is 0.05 [LOD] fActorLODDefault=5 ;default is 6.5 fDistanceMultiplier=1 ;default is 1.2 ;There is a misprint in the INI that would have specified that fFadeInTime=2, but since they spelled it fFadeInTimet, it doesn't work, so I have left this in the comments.

Kelmych Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 The GOG version of Fallout 3 uses a different set of default values for Fallout_default.ini and FalloutPrefs.ini. There are also different INI default files for the other 2 Bethesda games that GOG supports, Oblivion and Fallout New Vegas. These INI files are typically setup for a somewhat more capable system than the INI values found in the Steam version.
DoubleYou Posted January 8, 2018 Author Posted January 8, 2018 I would be interested in seeing these variants. Maybe they fixed some of Bethesda's mistakes.
Kelmych Posted January 13, 2018 Posted January 13, 2018 You can find some of this in GamerPoets video on INI tweaking. I'll do some comparisons between the two INI files with the Steam and GOD versions and see what I find on the differences.
