Workaround for running the game Fallout 3 on Intel HD graphics

There is also a threading bug in the game engine that causes problems on system that support >2 threads (e.g. ILK with hyperthreading, also Core i5-750 and up). Workaround is:

Adding these 2 lines to Fallout.ini in Documents\\My Games\\Fallout3 under [General]

bUseThreadedAI=1

iNumHWThreads=2

Yes, this is a workaround cited on many forums. Although this is not an officially approved workaround, it WORKS.

Thanks for posting.

Would this possibly work on a Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family?

Thanks.

Fallout 3 actually works quite well on my laptop without any tweaks at all, on low settings. Only a few areas experience stutter and very low framerates, otherwise generally framerates are over 20/sec.

My computer specs are:

Toshiba Satellite L510
Pentium Dual-Core T4400 2.20 GHz
2GB DDR3 RAM
320GB Harddisk
Intel 4500MHD Integrated Graphics Card
