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

    Oh damn you're right, been a while since I played a pure diplomat. In any case, he is geared towards players with parties. OP said he ran into him after the Den, at which point you normally have Sulik and Vic. There's no way Kaga walks out of that victorious. If you're playing without a party...

    Fallout 2 mod Skipping the temple of trials

    Buddy, he TAKES your healing powders before the fight. Better idea is to drop a Sharpened pole on the ground before talking to him, he will pick that up and try to use it, but it sucks and makes him easy to beat. Of course you can also drop some Healing Powder for yourself, but what kind of...

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

    He's not too difficult at all. If you have a high AP just punch them and run, or talk him down if your speech is high enough. If you have a decent Melee weapons skill you can also just stab them to death.

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    I say they are. I visualize the 14mmAP rounds as anti-material "tank openers", hence their increased weight and armor penetration, and why the Bozar uses them. Putting them in a handgun is only possible because this is a videogame, and I wish I could make that handgun have the ST req to match...

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

    Can you open Darion's proto file in a hex editor and tell me what the 4 bytes from offset 8 and onwards say? They should point to the FRM called HMLTHR (hero male leather armor), which contains all weapon animations. Or you could open Vault 15 in the mapper, equip him with the flamer and see...

    People not having guns in their inventory is a feature in the base game so you can't steal their guns. AFAIK you can only do it to Buster's guards in NCR because they don't actually have their guns equipped. You can sometimes get around this by Bartering with the person a couple of times, the...

    Fallout 2 mod FO2 Engine Tweaks (Sfall)

    Guys, I'm having some questions regarding the BonusHthDamageFix and DisplayBonusDamage INI settings (both handled in AmmoMod.cpp). From what I can tell, it works like this: If you enable BonusHtHDamageFix, then however many points of extra damage you have from the Bonus HtH Damage perk gets...

    OP, could you try to collate the bugs we've confirmed into a report and put it in the RP thread, or edit your first post to include them? So far it looks like the list is: Confirmed: Renesco does not give discount. SAD robots use Dude's repair skill even if Vic does it. Car behaves weirdly if...

    How to set CORRECT widescreen resolution for Fallout 2

    If you use 1280x800 it sounds like you have a 16:10 monitor. In that case it probably can't display the higher 16:9 resolutions. Try these settings instead: Sfall - 1920x1200 (and remember graphics mode 4) Highres - 960x600 I'll show you screenshots, but it will have to be in the end of July...

    Fallout 2 Savegame Editor

    One other way to "fix" this is to drive until the car runs out of fuel. The car WILL appear then, and should work properly after you refuel it (don't ask me why).

    What I think is, New Reno is such a huge area that seems to have been done in a haste, that probably they had someone who was inexperienced with the mapper do it, to make it in time for the deadline. All the barter modifiers in New Reno are coded backwards too, so people overcharge you horribly...

    It's not a bug, but it's bad design since no other enemies in the game work like that, so for the sake of consistency it ought to be changed.

    Working download link for mapper2.exe?

    You need both the high res and the unlimited cities patch for the mapper.

    But I've bought that MFC. Maybe it's removed when you leave the map and re-enter after a few days, i.e. the first time he restocks?

    Harry doesn't restock the armor, but according to Per's Fallout 2 guide there should be one in his shop inventory. Have you checked the map and seen if there is one in the box when you enter? I know for a fact he sells MFC, which doesn't restock either. Bishop's guards really shouldn't have...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    You're welcome! It *is* a fantastic game, and I want to make it the best it can be by improving the feel of the combat without changing it too much. I think I've mostly succeeded, but there's always things that can be done better. You can start your game with the current version of F2WR right...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    The plan is to have it out this weekend! Saturday maybe? I've got the crit fix mostly working, the rest is just a matter of editing protos.

    Memory error

    For the first 6 months of Fallout 1's development, it was all done by one guy. For the next 6 months, it was that one guy, plus an artist and a scripter. They never had the budget or the intentions to make the game moddable at all. Hell, the game is barely working as it its, it's got those...

    Highwayman trunk thingies

    The idea of weaponizing the car isn't that far-fetched. Imagine you starting in a random encounter with two raiders already dead on the ground - because you drove over them!

    VC leather armor: Have you checked all the Stuff on Harry's tables? A lot of shopkeepers have different inventory depending on whether you try to Use one of their tables, talk to them and ask to trade, or press the Barter button in the interface. Chad and Darion running away: Do you have a very...
