I discovered how to make this work with the Steam in-game overlay!
Just have all the EXEs in the Fallout folder, correctly named (fallout3.exe, fose_loader.exe, Fallout_Fullscreen.exe) EXCEPT FalloutLauncher.exe. That's the one Steam uses to launch the game, so name it something else. Now, run this in a cmd window (and of course, replace the paths with whatever your Fallout 3 directory is):
Basically this makes a "shortcut" of the mod's exe, and makes Steam think it's the launcher exe. Now just run Fallout 3 via Steam, wait for the fake fullscreen to work its magic, and there you go! A few things I have to note though. You'll have to hide your taskbar (right click taskbar, Properties, check "Auto-hide the Taskbar"), or you'll get a thin black bar on the bottom of the screen, displacing the window.
Also you may have to do this as well:
set SteamAppID=22370 fallout.exe
I had to do this previously to make FOSE work with the Steam overlay.
Those who are having issues watch GophersVids on modding fallout part 4 he explains this and making your game run amazing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tONiXNbwSt0
