    Just started a new Fallout New Vegas run. Using the GOG.com version it actually runs well even with my heavy mod load. The only problem is that I can only run it in windowed mode, the game simply crashes if I try to start anew game or load an existing while in fullscreen.
    I've tried many "fixes" but they are all old and were made for previous generations of video drivers, cards, and Windows. Does anyone know a workaround for "fake" window fullscreen or full screen that runs on Win10 and RTX 2080 Ti card?
    Thanks

    Maybe don't go "full ham" on the resolution? I'm having no trouble
    running the Steam version on Win 10 pro with a 1060 (which uses the same drivers) with fullHD. With that GPU of yours I'm guessing your trying
    something 4k or there about. And the engine wasn't build for that.

    https://blog.der-boese-metaller.d?I was trying to run it at my monitors res. Since I reduced to 1080 things are going much better. So wish there was a proper 4k remaster. Even on Ultra with all the texture and mesh mods the game doesn't look good. But it's still so fun to play.

    I wouldn't get my hopes up. Maybe some enthusiasts will port/mod it but
    I wouldn't hold my breath. Glad that you're enjoying it now again.
