Fallout 3 Walkthrough (Modded) Part 290

I finish exploring the northeast areas and then return to Hartrick to advance the main quest. This is the thirteenth episode of Alton - IL.

Note: My experience with Alton wasn't the best. Many instabilities and crashes, but I managed to complete the quests.

The mods I used in this series are listed here. Also, the complete playlist is now available on Youtube and Odysee

Follow the timestamps:

• 00:41 - Heading southwest after leaving the Last Chance Gas building. I find a path between the rocks to the south. Wastelander Hideout discovered.
• 01:43 - A "Go Away" note is in the mailbox. Of course, I'm not going away.
• 02:30 - The structure had an entrance, but not what I expected. It's a hatch to the Wastelander Cave, near the garden gnome outside.
• 03:26 - The Wasteland didn't have much to say, so I left.
• 04:14 - I go northwest past the road. A sentry bot was on the way.
• 06:38 - I continue heading northwest. Mirelurks live in the ruined and flooded area.
• 08:02 - A fridge in one of the houses. Sunken Hollow was discovered.
• 08:27 - I enter a Flooded Ranch on the east side of the road. A footlocker was near the bed. A copy of the DC Journal of Internal Medicine was on the kitchen table.
• 09:46 - Back outside. I take the road to the north. The rocky area under the elevated highway caught my attention.
• 12:41 - I jumped on the rocks to the north and discovered a path between the rocks. It led to nothing, so I returned west. The northeast areas looked unfinished.
• 13:31 - I take the road north (again). The road ends in more rocks. I check the map and turn west under the highway.
• 14:17 - Sentry Bots south of a waste disposal area.
• 16:11 - I cross the north fence and follow northwest. I checked the map and noticed the Faramount Toxic Waste Dump to the northwest. I (decide to) fast-travel to Riverview.
• 17:41 - I go northwest to finish exploring the city ruins and then focus on the main quest.
• 18:54 - Passing by Wild Track Bikes (seen in part 279). I turn east and discover the Grain Mill. I take the road northeast to see where it goes (invisible wall). I return and enter the Industrial Ruins.
• 21:22 - I deploy the MTS-400 before eliminating the Feral Ghouls. A few frag mines are placed in the area.
• 22:38 - A tripwire near the door to the hallway.
• 23:21 - Some filling cabinets. I retrieve the MTS before moving forward. I go to the room on the left first. Only a first aid box.
• 24:32 - I go to the right and then upstairs. A lone Feral Ghoul to the left, near the vending machine.
• 25:14 - I take the left path and enter the room on the right. Some shelves and items.
• 25:48 - The last room floor collapsed. The area below has many radioactive waste barrels and the "Doctor's Orders: #2" on the ground (Sneak +5). The first "Doctor's Orders" was found in episode 279, in a ruined house (43 minutes mark).
• 26:17 - The holotape mentions a Godfrey, but I was too tired to check what the person was doing.
• 27:08 - Now I'll check the right side. The path is blocked, so I only reach the cafeteria. A rigged shotgun was on a bench on the left. I almost missed the tripwire.
• 29:04 - Going downstairs and leaving the building.
• 30:08 - The local map. Time to move on. I go northwest and find a (highly) radioactive crater to the northwest. It was deadly even with Rad-X.
• 32:52 - I turn west and spot raiders in the parking lot below. I kill them, jump on the rocks below and go north toward the water. A few more enemies near the picnic tables (+ a first aid box).
• 35:01 - I jump on the water, trying to swim to the north side, but the invisible wall haltered my attempt. Back to the parking lot to loot the raiders.
• 37:47 - I finally return to the Underground Railroad.
• 38:23 - Talk to Frank Randolph in the corridor. He doesn't have the 1000 caps required to move into the station. The "Friendy To The Needy" quest begins.
• 39:05 - I offer to talk to Hartrick for him. No reward is required.
• 39:26 - First, I'll sell some stuff.
• 41:04 - I go south and into the tunnels to meet Hartrick.
• 42:16 - A quick stop at the workbench to manage and repair.
• 44:05 - Looking for Hartrick. I found him in the room with the sandbags.
• 44:31 - Godfrey is free of Super Mutants. Also, the truck to return home needs a Prism Fusion Coil Reflector Device.
• 45:10 - Telling Hartrick about my capture.
• 45:53 - Hartrick mentions a GECK in Vault 59. I don't want to destroy it, so the option to disable the water purification system arises.
• 46:48 - I talk to Hartrick again. It's about Frank's situation. He offers a spare room in exchange for 50% of Frank's profits.
• 46:59 - The "anything else that I could help" option is a quest to fix the boiler. The "Give It A Good Mopping" quest begins. I need to find Tom Howard.

I complete the two side quests in the next episode.
