    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 1.2 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    Strange, I have no idea what version of the game I found then. combat.txt todo.txt Enjoy. Many of the ideas would require engine changes, some can probably be done with scripting. @Dude101: Cameron and Lucas are named Dumar and Standing Fist respectively. Other than that, it's all typos...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    Coffee | nose > keyboard In a figurative sense, related to Magnus' comments on disk space. Wish I had a fancy one like the Optimus Maximus, but no, I'm still banging away at a 9-year-old Mac standard. Maybe I should give it a new paint job, racing stripes, something like that.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 1.2 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    I went through the Mac version's master.dat, and found some interesting differences with the Windows version, though most are replaced by patch000.dat . A bunch of maps and scripts are different, but it's hard to figure out how. In data/city.txt, the Military Base and SAD have town map entrances...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    You owe me a new keyboard. Also, pre-existing ammo in crates and such looks the same, but counts as only one stack when you pick it up. For example, if you have 5 rounds of 10mm AP and take a stack that says x24 out of a locker, you end up with just 17 rounds. Weapons will still be fully...

    Just give me a trainer that does infinite money, health, etc

    Very short walkthrough: 1. Go to Klamath to look for Vic. 2. Vic's not there, try the Den. 3. Turns out you don't need Vic, since other people can tell you how to get to Vault City. 4. VC isn't V13, but the central computer might list the locations of other Vaults. 5. Fix the Gecko reactor...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    Protos 189 (bounty hunter leader) and 190 (bounty hunter) are the only critters that appear to wear regular power armor. I'm not sure where it overrides the name in pro_crit.msg . The leaders actually have APA stats. Protos 291 and 292 are the other Enclave guards; they have APA Mk2 stats...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    <s>Maybe I borked my installation somehow, but I'm finding gang 'tough thugs' using Mausers loaded with 14mm ammo.</s> Edit: yeah, somehow copied 14mm ammo to proto 360. Also, the 'ncwriply' script needs to be updated. It is used by the Wright children playing outside, and if you give them a gun...

    Fallout 2 official guide

    Appendix B is perhaps the most useful part, where he talks about the making of Fallout 2 and games in general. The quality isn't as great as I'd like it to be – selectable text is sometimes out of alignment with the visible characters, and I'm having a hell of a time getting it to scan plumb –...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    I recently tried a variant like that, with ammo quantities cut to 1/4 of their normal values. I found that weapon capacities need to be reduced as well. Otherwise you still find just as much ammo on defeated enemies, which is often enough to go through the entire game on. It might be good to...

    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2: Weapons Redone v2.3

    I have to argue against changing the CAWS animation. The description says "The bullpup layout gives the weapon a short, easily handleable, length", which isn't at all like a Big Gun. Also, according to the proto it weighs 20 pounds.

    It does raise the question of whether or not you should be able to skin fire geckos. Is there any other evidence for it? I've checked the Fallout Bible, but didn't find anything relevant. Another thing of note is that you're not supposed to get into the reactor room at the Enclave. This is...

    Fallout 2 mod Unofficial Fo2 patch thread - problems, reports, suggestions

    I'm still having a problem with the Arroyo Elder walking through the forcefield. Also, her team number seems to be set wrong, since she keeps walking out of her cell and attacking my platoon, which promptly guns her down. Edit: found part of the problem, she's actually standing on the...

    Here are some quick scans of the different weapons. I'm planning to do the whole thing, but that will take a while. Compare with the final images here http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_2_Art_Index#Small_Guns

    Fallout 2 official guide

    I finally got a copy, and there isn't all that much background information in it. Given the number of typos, errors, and inconsistencies, I'm not sure I'd consider all of it to be canon. They wanted the book to be available when the game came out, so it went to press before everything was...

    Engine reversing/exploration

    The function ai_search_inven_weap is where critters choose which weapon to use. For any quadruped, with the exception of Goris, it immediately returns, preventing them from using weapons. ai_search_inven_armor is used to select the best armor. It only works for party members, so other...

    Geographic changes after the Great War

    The maps are fairly accurate, but a bit off. They put Redding a bit southeast of where it should be, The real Klamath is right on the coast, due west of where they have it, which is in the middle of nowhere. There's also a Klamath Falls in Oregon, but that's well to the northeast and off the F2...

    Question about the Gizmo quests in Fallout 1

    Unlike some games, a large amount of experience is gained in quests and other non-violent activities, rather than 'grinding' random encounters. Radscorpions are tough early on; the rats in V15 are much easier to handle, and you can find some armor and a better weapon or two there. You could also...
