Try starting a new game and see if it happens in that playthrough. If it doesn’t, the character is the problem.

@E-123  
Your link for the head texture problem didn’t send me to a video.
 
@Wiimeiser  
I just tried it, and it also crashed. It also crashed when I tried to go into VATS.

Some more info on the problem, I started 3, discovered that my compass problems are gone (the map markers are fixed), but when I try to press esc to save or load, it crashes, so it seems to be whenever I do something that stops time, the games crash.

@Meanlucario  
Is not a video because a video tutorial about that problem are rare, but this one its very short and easy to follow anyway.

@E-123  
I’ll read it tomorrow than.

NV and 3 crashing when I try to loot a body, use VATS, or pause the game is driving me crazy.

@Meanlucario  
Maybe the games pause by doing something deprecated. What are your specs?
 
There is no such thing as a universal pause. Often 2D animations in 3D games don’t pause, for example.  
Creatures 3 and Docking Station just flip the paused state of each object, normally this works but you can pause malfunctioning scripts…  
Ben 10 and Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric just set the movement speed of all objects to 0 if their jumping glitches are any indication.

@Wiimeiser  
No idea.
 
And I mean like how the Pip-boy pulse time when you use it, stuff like that.

@Meanlucario  
There’s a blur effect when the game pauses in those situations, right? Maybe that’s the culprit. I’m getting layering issues on my graphics card, where 2D glow effects appear in front of everything else. As far as I know it’s just Source and Bizhawk, but that’s enough to be majorly concerning for the functionality of my hardware. Should I provide screenshots?

@Wiimeiser  
I guess.

why side with the institute?  
for that sweet sweet clasical music radio of course!
 
no really i must have spended half the playtime with that radio on

@team blueplant  
For the drama

@Communist Starlight  
that too  
also blue lasers

@team blueplant  
Giving the BoS a black eye is understandable too.

@TheSupremePatriarch  
Who doesn’t love that

@Communist Starlight  
I don’t, since they aren’t that bad outside of 4.

@TheSupremePatriarch  
@Communist Starlight
 
it took me a long time to siege the airport tho, and didnt even get to loot maxon or danse due to them landing on roofs near the end

@Meanlucario  
All they do is hoard tech, I’d rather be with the NCR.

@Communist Starlight  
In 1 and 3, they help you save the day.

@Meanlucario  
I’ll hold my judgement.

@Communist Starlight  
It’s funny that the Brotherhood in 1 and (I’m told) 2 are like their 3 version, and only become the dicks in New Vegas and 4 in Tactics.

@Meanlucario  
Hmm. That must be where my bias comes from.

@Communist Starlight  
That’s what I assumed.

@Meanlucario
 
I mean, the BOS doorman in 1 sent you on a suicide fetch quest for what amounts to shits and giggles. But otherwise the Brotherhood in 1 are pretty neutral.

@Dustcan  
True, though every group has one asshole.
