I would like to know if there is a simple way to remove the menu to choose the starting wasteland. I'd rather have the game play the Fallout 3 intro and start in DC right away when starting a new game. Starting in the Mojave is not recommended anyways, so I don't see a reason for that menu. Just personal preference.
I could easily do that in FNVEdit, I need to know exactly what entries to change though!

No, it's needed. Some people want it, others don't. Can't please everyone, it's a minor inconvenience.

Re: TTW 3.2.2 start menu removal
Thank you for the reply! I understand why it's needed. But is there a way for me to change it for myself? I have basic FNVEdit knowledge, if there is a way, I would like to do so... What entries are affecting that menu? I mean, if it's too complicated, then I'll just live with it...

You can't change it with basic xEdit knowledge, no.

You can break scripts with xedit is what you're saying.

Sometimes I edit them in FNVEdit, but you have to use GECK to compile them. You should use extender so you can catch any errors...

Re: TTW 3.2.2 start menu removal
I tend to use Geany to edit scripts. I copy the whole script from either xEdit or GECK, paste it into Geany, edit it, copy the whole script, and paste back into xEdit/GECK. The text editing in both xEdit and GECK is rudimentary at best. Good for changing/adding/removing a line or two, not so good for big changes. If you do edit the scripts in xEdit, don't forget to use the GECK to recompile them. Once you use the GECK, don't forget to use xEdit to clean the plugin of all the extra junk the GECK throws in. While in xEdit, be sure to note the name of the scripts as GECK sorts scripts by name, not by plugin. Well, most scripts... some are embedded into things and require you to hunt down the thing in GECK and edit it to get to the script to recompile it. Scripts in dialogue are like that... you gotta hunt down the dialogue and edit it to get to the script.
