    Fallout 2 mod FO2 Engine Tweaks (Sfall)

    I don't remember which version it was exactly, but one of the newer sfalls said something to the effect of "Fixed incorrect APs being given at the start of each round, resulting in enemies having a hidden higher AC than they should." Well, I've done some testing with the newest sfall and I can...

    How to set CORRECT widescreen resolution for Fallout 2

    I am vomiting just looking at these screenshots, this is exactly the effect that I was trying to avoid. I appreciate the effort you put into it, but I can't play like that. See now, THIS is what I'm talking about. Even the addict in the corner agrees with me. Everything is crisp and clear, like...

    Help a Newb ------- how to add new party members to the game prop. Also, where is the PARTY.H file?

    Hmm. Have you checked the script sources that came with the mapper? If you're using some kind of mod, then you should get the script sources from that mod. Party.TXT sounds like it might be in Data/Text/English/Game.

    UP and RP updates

    Hello all. I'm really looking forward to trying these out, but I'm hesitant because apparently there are a lot of issues with it. Has anyone been able to play it with no problems? My plan: Install Fallout 2 from steam. Install RP 2.3.3, installer version. Install this. Possibly update sfall and...

    Fallout 2 mod Converting video to mve

    Somewhat off topic, but I've been toying around with making a video for finding the car in Fallout 2 based on clips from this: I want it to look old and 16 bit like the other movies in the game, is there anyone who is a master of this that I can talk to once I finish the video?

    Fallout 2 mod FO2 Engine Tweaks (Sfall)

    Y The following line: ModifiedIni=42 Is the ONLY thing you need to put in the new ddraw.ini. Basically, 1. Install RP 2. Overwrite sfall with version 3.8.4 3. Put ModifiedIni=42 in ddraw.ini.

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.3.3 (Unofficial Expansion)

    I have just played through an unarmed char with a setup similar to your PC, and landed many, many Haymakers with no problems. But, that was with an older version of sfall. Newer sfalls contain edits by a crazy genius Russian hacker named Crafty, these are not all that well documented, and I...

    FO2 restoration project seems to have some old bugs that arent fixed...

    Mrs. Bishop's requirement is literally right there in the line you highlighted. The third parameter to XOption is the Int requirement for that line.

    FO2 restoration project seems to have some old bugs that arent fixed...

    Have you tried finishing the rest of the Slag quests and seen if there's an option to tell Vegeir about Johnny as you go back to Modoc? I seem to recall the RP/UP included one such option for convenience.

    FO2 restoration project seems to have some old bugs that arent fixed...

    Upon further inspection it looks like our boy here is actually right about the Cult of Personality issue! I looked at the Duntons' script, and the way it treats that perk means they will always act as if you're Idolized in Klamath if you have it. So you can't armwrestle them or take the job...

    This happens without the perk too. I think it's a Speech check, you get one chance with each Dunton so two in total. Cult of Personality actually lets you become a Slaver without pissing off Sulik, came across it in his script the other day. If it works like that with all Slaver-haters then...

    Is Jinxed overpowered?

    Insanely well if you use F2WR, otherwise pretty much the same as the Lit Flare cheesecake? Basically hoarding Flares and aiming for instakills. Man, what a fucking goofy way to take on the Enclave :D I suppose you'd want Finesse as well, since Sniper doesn't work for Throwing?

    Is Jinxed overpowered?

    I ran a Jinxed+HtH Evade game once, Navarro was absolutely hilarious (Plasma Turret critically missed and its weapon exploded). It seems that ranged distance modifiers are capped at some point before AC is applied, because the baddies did miss. But they were aiming at my legs and other body...

    Fallout 2 mod Balthas/Happy harry's restocking scripts

    Oh good lord, you're right. Every time I get back into Fallout 2 scripting it takes a while before I realize how spaghetti it is.

    Fallout 2 mod Balthas/Happy harry's restocking scripts

    What I'm wondering is, why is OP getting errors for a Redding macro when he's trying to compile a script for a Vault City merchant box? Are you trying to compile all scripts or just the one for the box?
