Thicket excavations graphical bug FIX

[Chad Narukami]

Hi everyone,
For those of you with the graphical bug when entering the Thicket excavations area, it may be because the initial load from the vault to the map was incomplete. But fear not I believe I have found a fix.

1. Enter Thicket excavations area
2. Stand in any part where the graphic is wierd or at least stand in view of the area (according to dogg Thanks)
3. Save and quit to desktop. (Quitting to the main menu also works according to Darkostrasz. Thanks.)
4. Reload game
5. Win :)

Just ran into this, there's a sleeping bag in the trailer with a turret on top of it, just before you descend into the quarry. I rested there to save and when I reloaded it was fixed.

This worked for me, too. Thanks so much!

Worked for me too ... wish I would have looked for this fix before clearing it of the raiders, would have made it a lot easier.

Hi Daft, I just encountered this bug too. Thanks for posting a quick-fix.

Just quitting to the main menu worked for me. I figured I'd give it a try since you said you haven't tried that.

Cool. Thanks. I couldn't test it myself since the glitch never occurred after coming back to revisit the area (after 126 hours), I'll edit the post to give you credit as well.

Confirmed "fix".

I did a quick save while standing on some glitched terrain, quit to main menu, then hit "Continue". Graphics = fixed.

It's only the 2nd glitch I've run into this far, and luckily was harmless. Needs to be patched, though.

(other glitch was: I was casually walking along, and I drew my gun on a feral, then suddenly I teleported a short distance away and wayyy up into the air. Power armour = no fall damage, luckily. LOL)

worked for me too, thanks

[mceasy12]

Confirmed - it works. Thanks man, huge post!

is there a screen shot of the issue? the pics in the post dont seem to have anything wrong that I can see. I have cleared that place out a dozen times now due to radiant quests and dont recall having a graphic issue.

This only occurred usually on the first time going through the area, if you don't have the glitch, then good for you.

Well, for me I have had that glitch ocurr on the same playthru when I went back to check if it had drained yet. It had not.

SeriousCCIE, unfortunately I don't have a screen grab of it, but basically for me there was a white surface above where the water should be. I could not see through it and the water was completely hidden.
