    FO2 unexplained radiation death (possible bug?)

    Withdrawal stops at 1, yes, but the problem is that the radiation code might be looking at the wrong numbers. Radaway lowers the rem count which determines (at least partially) the severity of radiation sickness, so it might help that way, but it can't prevent it entirely once it's triggered. So...

    FO2 unexplained radiation death (possible bug?)

    Not really, since there is no "death check" except when radiation is involved. You can try either taking drugs to boost the stat in danger of dropping to 0 or use a character editor to boost stats temporarily.

    Fallout 2 Mouse lag/freeze and Keyboard input problem

    You shouldn't use both of those at the same time. It should say so in the instructions. Not sure if that's the problem, but in any case you should have posted in the mod forum.

    Chris Avellone Fallout 2 podcast

    I disagree. Better location character and detail, better world cohesion from connections between locations, better writing (on average, boosted by Avellone), better humour.

    FO2 unexplained radiation death (possible bug?)

    A wild guess is that the Buffout withdrawal would have dropped some stat below 1, a minimum of 1 was applied, but the radiation code looks at the modified stat before that minimum is applied. There are some other weird goings-on in the game (notably pariah dog Luck modifications) that have to do...

    Merged with relevant thread, and judging by the last post you are not alone. (Did I just make an accidental X-Files reference)

    It is advisable to put some distance between you and the rest of the party before casting Omega Murder Blast.

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

    Three random minor things I came across and didn't see mentioned in the corrections file: 1. Car disappears if it's in Arroyo at the time of the invasion. Does this fall under some general car fix? Or is it deliberately not addressed since it makes sense the car would be taken or destroyed...

    Re: Pandering To Prevarications We don't delete posts here. We do move posts or chunks of threads to a read-only forum as part of normal forum moderation... which you kind of should know if you registered in 2011? For people in general who are new to moderated forums and/or the internet...

    Doctor Who

    I watched the "Silence in the Library" 2-parter, continuing my slow sampling of pre-Moffat Moffat. It was OK, worse than Blink, better than The Girl in the Fireplace. There are some nice touches but there's also: 1. Everyone is just so damn obsessed with how cool the Doctor is (supposed to...

    Subm.: System Shock 2

    I just don't consider skills and inventories to be defining "RPG elements", they're just elements that are typically found in RPGs. I wouldn't say the Diablos are RPGs either, for instance. Far more important is what a game offers in terms of choice, and the choices presented to you by SS1+2 are...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    I really like PoP: The Sands of Time, played it through three times already. For some reason it's the first game since the Fallouts and Wasteland that's made me want to write a guide. Now playing Midtown Madness 2 from 2000, more than 11 years after my missed opportunity to buy it. Yay for...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Yup. Primer is awesome, although there comes a point in the movie where you basically have to stop and replay a section once or twice. Upstream Color is nice, well acted, good moods and music, but again there are one or two plot points you can't actually find in the movie itself.

    When do skills cap?

    That's pretty much it. If I don't misremember, some skills like Sneak, Steal and Outdoorsman may even be capped before modifiers, silly as it may sound. There could possibly be a lock in the game with a -80 modifier, so you'd need Lockpick 180 if you always wanted to open each lock on the first...
