I'd have no problem with removing or changing the default characters. It would be nice if you could change the base settings and/or formulae determining the Vault Dweller's base settings.

Good to see @Sduibek back here. Best wishes with the updates and bug fixes.

This isn't the right thread for this but, forgive me Fallout Universe. Locking open doors is a time-honoured Fallout tradition. It avoids unfortunate lock-yourself-and-others-in mistakes. There are over 40 lockable doors in Klamath alone. That's 1000+ cheap experience points right there.

A lot of the game elements were put together quickly and without forethought. Presumably the designers didn't expect gamers to use items on non-NPCs. If they had they might have made using non-medical items on non-NPCs an aggressive act that resulted in combat. Radiation testing on every game...

I tried this on other game characters and NPCs some years ago. It didn't work. Neutering potential combat enemies with jet and alcohol then waiting 10 minutes DOES work. Fine for Metzger's gang, King Arthur's Knights, Enclave, New Reno families, etc. The game checks characters for everything but...

In vanilla the price you pay for a $1000 item is, (or at least it should be), determined by the merchant's barter skill and the player's barter skill. The final price can be anywhere from $1500 to $6000. (i'm just making up figures here to demonstrate the principle rather than quoting useful...

I agree with this. The problem is the default barter.ini hasn't been sufficiently playtested. There were significant flaws in the math and there were trading consequences which the designer didn't foresee. I spent time playtesting different areas of the game on normal mode using different...

It's not a bug, as such, but rather a major design flaw. Adding NPCs to the Chosen One's party gives the Chosen One certain abilities. For example, adding Vic will allow the Chosen One to use Vic for repairs with Vic's comparatively high repair skill. The same is true with the barter skill. The...

To be honest I was referring to

The economy is broken in F1 almost by default. There was so much to take from the Raiders Camp you needed an NPC purely as a mule, (a 0 AP non-combat mule if necessary). You could then take everything from Killian's store at 0 cost, (the F2 engine makes this easier).

I liked what this mod tried to do. Its aims are good and the combat rebalance is nice but the economic changes aren't great. The problem in the original Barter formula is easily identified and there were 3 fairly straight forward ways of dealing with it. Unfortunately another solution has...

Perhaps the villagers of Arroyo also mine coal and iron ore so they can forge steel tips for their wooden spears, (when they're not using flint of course).

I offered someone else some image editing assistance and was asked to help here instead. I did PM the OP some weeks ago but i've had no reply. If you want some help send me a PM.

Has this project been abandoned or is it still ongoing?

Could someone explain how to edit the values of the Critters/Items .PRO files in step-by-step, plain English to a complete beginner. I have IN:9 but Science :0. Thank you for your time and patience.

If you need a small free program for resizing images that's easy to use with a few basic tools i'd recommend FastStone. I won't post a link as I know this forum has rules regarding spamming and advertising.

Good point. The Wikia guide says "Reach 'Accepted' reputation with Gecko. Will not join childkiller".

I don't know of any previous issues. The dialogue tree is to talk to Lenny about the Chosen One's ancestor running around and Lenny not being brave enough to join him. You then give him the chance he didn't take with the Vault dweller. If you're not getting this dialogue path then that's what...

Back on topic - Possible future perks: Self-defense1 & 2. unlike Dodger which helps avoid attacks at all ranges by increasing armour class, (not enough) SD1 would be a zero range only perk allowing those with it a 6% chance to block/avoid the HtH attack or zero range gun shot, (would fail...

Interesting thread. I wasn't going to be rude to anyone who thought +20 HP per level as the perk for Lifegiver would bring 'balance' but at least now I won't have to put him/her on ignore...or AdBlock Plus >_>. I come to gaming from a maths background, some extremely outdated computer...
