Wait...what? The game "crashes" you when you hit ALT+F4? This is the "problem" they chose to fix?
Also, God forbid that the game crashes because people are too bored to watch the credits.

These are the things they chose to fix...

How about fixing the pinball physics or the crashes on save/load?

If you're crashing, uninstall ffdshow. If you're experiencing stuttering or mouse lag, install D3DOverrider and turn v-sync on.

If you can't do either of these things, please insert the game disc into your face as hard as possible.

Looks like it doesn't work with the securerom patch: "Old File not found. However, a file of the same name was found. No update done since file contents do not match."

bah, no audio fix for the radio cutting out (no it's not part of the game). A temp fix is to hit esc, wait 5 seconds then go back into the game and it will play normally.

So, um, no fix for everyone who crashes (and there are a lot of us) constantly after leaving the vault? You know, a fix for the people that can't play at all? Christ....like I said before, this is the last Bethesda game I am spending money on...dealt with this shit ever since Daggerfall, no more.

What raises my eyebrow is the fact that a fix apparently made by a guy who ripped the game (and many other games) is being used by both 'legal' and 'illegal' players - with great results!
