It depends on what you think is fair and what you want from the game. The Gifted trait makes the game much easier. However, NOT taking Small Guns at the start but adding it with the Tag perk at level 12 is a complete game-changer. If you take Small Guns at the start it's difficult to raise the...

Not sure how the spoiler works but i'll give it a go.

Problem #1 is rescuing Tandi. Once rescued I can interact with her on most screens but if I click on her at any mountain location the game crashes. (There is a lone raider encounter in the mountains near Shady Sands that is related to the Khans. Could this be connected?). If I try to talk to...

I'm getting a lot of crashes and game errors so I could use some advice. I loaded a clean 1.0 UK version, updated it with 6.72 alpha, then updated it with 6.73 alpha with the custom options, on a Windows XP system. Is it worth reinstalling the original version and then trying a team X 1.2 patch...

Thank you for the work you are doing with the game. I hope the conversion with the Fallout 2 engine is going well. The 'Change Log for Fallout Fixt' file says that you welcome feedback. I post mine here rather than adding to the 'Vote for features' thread. You've changed the effects of...

You could be right. I had a 286 and later a Viglen machine of some description that had some upgraded parts. I never knew exactly what it was but I got it before 486s were common and they were also out of my price range. The game had a noticeable delay every time it had to load a location...

I remember those days. I remember installing the original version of Doom from 5 diskettes on what I think was a 286 machine. I remember loading Spectrum games from audio cassettes. I even used to write games and code in those days. Maybe 1 of these days i'll actually complete a Fallout game.

I'd recommend a Google search for 'white label fallout collection'. The 3-in-1 disc has served me well over many years. At £1 it was 1 of life's better investments.

Fallout 2: Mostly i'd like simple changes that would make the game play better. EG Merchants that start with and stay close to their guards rather than rush into combat. Replacing the sub machine gun with a hunting rifle and spare ammo would be a start. Merchants should actually have some stock...

The safest way to kill someone that isn't immediately hostile is to use jet. (Obviously don't make the mistake of using it on yourself or your companions). 2 X jet on all opponents before you start and a suitable time delay will reduce their AP to almost nothing. You won't need companions or...

@Svankensen, it's probably the wrong forum for me to say this but if you need easy & cheap help to kill potential enemies that aren't immediately hostile then jet and alcohol is the way to go. Example: you use 2 jet capsules on Metzger and each of his guards then rest for 20 minutes. Now...

@CPL, thank you for your reply but i'd already read the Wiki report and tried that. I have Sneak and Steal at base levels, (20% & 30%), but have 99 skill points at my disposal. Even using 10 booze, base sneak, and steal at 110% fails. It doesn't seem to matter what combination level of sneak or...

Any chance of moving the Guns and Bullets magazine in the bookcase in the Shark Club in Reno so that it can be stolen? The easiest solution would be to put it in a different bookcase. The next best solution would be to move the guard away from the bookcase. Karma query. Killing prostitutes in...

Unlimited Ammo bug: Give an NPC several identical empty guns and appropriate ammo. Remove/trade other guns or ammo so they won't be selected. Set the NPC's combat choice to ranged. Select 'Use best weapon' then click on 'Talk'. Click on 'I need to talk to you about your gear' then 'Put your...

Along the lines of the Yakuza running away the Frog Morton gang at Redding will only use guns at point blank range. If you hit/shoot and have enough ap to run they won't fire back. They'll just chase you. General bugs: Combatants who are knocked over or unconscious still taunt but use all...

Re: Major bug discovered! The problem exists only when the molerats fights and finishes, without crashing, when either molerat dies. There's a similar but much lesser problem with the "Some people in the wrong place at the wrong time" encounter. I thought I was just me since no-one else was...

Curious! All of my later 2.1.2b saved games had a bug that caused the game to crash if I returned to the Ghost Farm. I copied the SAVEGAME files to a different folder, completely uninstalled the game, reloaded, and used the new 2.2 version and the saved games work fine! To check it I...

Dynamite related problems: If you kill Mordino Snr, Salvatore Snr, or Mason by planting timed dynamite on them and running off-screen before fulfilling their quests the game crashes. This corrupted my save games!?! Doing the same thing to little Johnny at the Ghost farm doesn't result in the...

First off many thanks for the superb work. Any chance of fixing 2 minor, but really annoying, weapon accuracy issues from 2.1.2b? The FN FAL is classed as a pistol for range modification - meaning accuracy is increased/decreased by 8 x Perception rather than 16 x perception for rifles. The...

The thing that's annoying me in FO2 is the combat/targeting mechanism. All guns appear to lose 4% accuracy fro each hex you are from the target. An increase of 1 in Perception adds 16 to your small arms skills for rifles but only 8 to hand-guns. With low skill levels and low perception the...
