Cutscenes and talking heads in both games work fine for me with sfall (RP 1.2 for F2, and just TeamX patches for F1), and I'm running Vista 64.

Gifted is by far the most overpowered of the traits, which is why it's so popular. Per's walkthroughs have some ideas for non-gifted characters, though. Yes, you could use Big Guns without tagging it, if you like spending double the skill points on your combat skill -- which, at least for me, is...

Concerning Vault City: it's stated that on at least one occasion, the raiders funded by Bishop had disabled at least one turret and had a clear shot into the city. As far as I could tell, the only reason they didn't have their way with VC is because Bishop didn't want them to (and, to be sure...

It shows "Error" and "Error." Line 1 causes Dogmeat to wait (or, if he's waiting, brings him back into the party.) Line 2 exits dialogue. I'd look at the files and see, but I know nothing, really, about modding F1/F2. Edit: Wow, finished up the game and... apparently, mutants destroy...

If you're talking about the EPA, then yeah, I want it to be a surprise too -- no offense to anyone involved, but the EPA of 1.2 was somewhat disappointing and extremely labyrinthine, you know? No, a screencap is not at all the same, but it'd give people an idea what to expect -- even if a...

killap's Restoration Project includes both sfall and his unofficial patches (and, according to BR4ZIL below me, the official ones too); all you'll need is killap's RP 1.2, then F2 High-Res, installed in that order. Enjoy. :D Edit: Oh, my bad. It's been a while since I installed the RP --...

Do not question the all-mighty Per. I use Fast Shot the majority of the time, actually; yeah, you lose targeted shots, but you don't need to hit the eyes when you're running up to point-blank range and burst-firing. It's like a super-melee character, really. Also, Fast Shot seems like it'd be...

In that case, I see why they replaced him. But just because I'm spiteful, I hope the new team's at least as bad. In terms of this whole issue... has Beth ever published (let alone developed) an MMO, especially a successful one? Clearly no to the latter, because I can't find anything about one...

Sounds boss. Looking forward to it... so much so that I find myself checking NMA several times a day. I mean this thread specifically, like they wouldn't put something as momentous as 1.3 on the front page. Oh yeah, and... Jesus, read/lurk moar. Dravean, as writer/proofreader/etc. (AKA one of...

I noticed that, too -- and took hope from it. Like I've said before, it feels bizarre to be rooting for Herve's Interplay, but they're better than Beth for the moment. Beth's lawyer does seem like a scrub. Didn't they just get a new guy? Why would you replace incompetent with incompetent...

Sittin here trying to figure out why Dogmeat's dialogue is all "Error," I mean I don't even see him mentioned in the readme's. Any ideas? Not that it's that big a deal, of course, just puzzling.

Bad luck, for sure. Pulse weapons should be at least competitive, and generally have better results. This has been true for me in my playthroughs, and seems to be recommended in Per's walkthrough as well. (http://user.tninet.se/~jyg699a/fallout2.html#combat) The pistol's marginal like the other...

As proof that Interplay != geniuses even back in the day, I received three games (Fallout, MAX, and MAX 2) for free in the mail, for registering something I did not in fact register. Had to've been '98, but I didn't discover Fallout 2 until years later -- only shortly before Tactics, in fact.

The climate is far too complex for us to say with any certainty what effects we will have or have had on it except for the painfully obvious ones (deforestation, poisons, etc.), and a bit of global warming isn't actually that terror-inspiring to me. Sure, it would destabilize/change weather...

I see two possibilities that'd make sense in the setting: a) He's being electrocuted, and needs a Darwin Award. b) Something somehow related to the Psykers (have people forgotten those?). Wasn't one of them electrokinetic or something? After checking, yeah: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Wiggum

Seconded. +1 Internets. I used to hate the car for that kind of garbage. Also: the glitch with the flying robots in Bigtown was supremely irritating.

I can barely imagine a Fallout movie being accurate/good. It doesn't seem like even a 3-hour movie would do the setting or story full justice. Also, thanks for the sig, Jay-F.

I hate Herve as much as the next guy, but Beth's somehow worse, so... awesome. Rooting for Interplay is nigh incomprehensible, but yanno, doing it anyway 4tw. Hopefully the injunction will be a preview of the whole case; Bethesda failing miserably. Also: Beth's policy of sorry game, super...

Well, if you take Van Buren as at least semi-canon (personally, it's Fallout 3, and nothing Bethesda says will change my mind), then NCR's expansion was largely halted by the war with the Brotherhood. As far as the glaring flaws that become apparent when you pay attention to FO3... they're...

Gotta throw in my $.02 on this. Dashus is a massive douche for acting like he even sort of cared about the project, then disappearing without even releasing what had been done -- at least that way maybe Stoney or someone could have used all the work TG had apparently done. I know an early...
