When Fallout 1 was finally released (after I must have played the demo about a zillion times in agonizing anticipation), and I met this cool guy named Ian and thought, "Hey, great! A hired gun! Just what I needed!" So then I get over to V 15, and find this nifty submachine gun. My...

Agreed. Particularly since, one expects, they'll all be reimplemented once the expansion is ready. Yes, I'll miss them in the meantime, but given the intent of the patch is to fix, not to add-back, this seems the cleaner, more logical way to go. Sorry I didn't speak up sooner. Life had me...

Hey there! Long-time lurker, fan, yadda. First off, kudos for an awesome patch, killap. This thing is awesome. Also a quick obligatory thank you and round of applause to Per for the legendary and insanely helpful Ultimate Guides. You guys are the Cat's Paw. (Well, it seemed more in flavor...

Well, the developers are all parts of various new companies now as the companies which created the Fallout games no longer exist. When they did however, the best answer we ever got (from Chris A.) was released in the Fallout Bible. In my own words, his answer to the question was along the...

I can completely agree that he can and sometimes does raise some interesting points that merit further questioning and investigation. I just wish he could do so without the deception and manipulation of the data and facts involved. I realize that some people simply don't believe he does...

@ Dude_Obj - Yeah, I understand how the items work in stock Fallout 2. It sounded like you were saying you were going to pretty much completely randomize loot. I guess you must have been speaking more specifically in terms of containers than corpses because we seem to not be entirely on the...

It's not 100% bullshit. If you read what any of the reputable information that contradicts him says, you'll notice that much of what he presents is in fact quite true. The problem is, it's been manipulated, rearranged, taken out of context, put into fabricated contexts, and a variety of other...

Heh.. I missed this thread somehow previously. I too have been working on a bug-fix patch for Fallout 1. It's going along slowly, as first, I've got to learn this stuff as I go. Right now I'm concentrating mainly on scripts and dialogues (mostly because I've got those figured out better...

The whole concept sounds rather interesting and promising. One thing to consider though... I know that personally, it bugs the hell out of me when someone HAS something, yet it's not lootable. It's more or less a matter of logic holes. If a guy was just shooting at me with say a laser...

You're quite right on everything you said there Fallout_expert. Only one problem. He wasn't talking about the 5.56x45 nato rounds. He was talking about 5x26mm 36 grain rounds, which have considerably less power and a much lighter projectile as well. Sure, they can kill a person, but...

Actually, unemployment figures are taken from <gasp!> people collecting unemployment. Therefore, people who are not collecting unemployment, while they may technically be unemployed obviously have some other means of income and are therefore not counted into the figures. Hmm... tough stuff...

Additionally, if it matters... Explosive Rockets are PID 14 AP Rockets are 37 I don't know though what the actual file names are (or if they differ like the launcher) as I haven't done much with items as of yet -just figured the ammo might make a difference too since they contain damage...

Admittedly, his looks would be indicative of a much higher charisma, but he's just so abrasive to most people he meets out there. In the first movie, his wife & kid and best friend liked him. Pretty much everyone else didn't very much. Second movie, the really weird guy in the little...

I don't think I've personally ever heard of that happening. You got any mods installed? My first suggestion would be to back up save games etc and uninstall/reinstall. Cuz that's just weird. ;p -Wraith

You could try extracting the sound files and playing them. If your machine chokes on one, try to find a replacement for it and put it in the proper data\etc folder with a read only bit set. Might fix it, though again, this coming from PC and not Mac experience.. so I am grasping a bit in the...

Nope. And I'm gonna admit off the bat I know next to nothing about macs. However, were you on a PC, my first guess would be maybe something screwy in your sound files and or sound drivers? That, or the projectile effects. Those are about the only things I can think of that ranged weapons...

Why not go a step further.. "FanBuren". Someone should seriously start writing some emails. If they have a semi-working engine and some dev tools, the community could do fun stuff with this. Depends largely on how much work was actually completed though really. Bethezda though has...

Actually, now that you guys mention it, I vaguely recall something about the description of drymeat that said it can distract certain attackers. So that makes sense. :) -Wraith

Far as I knew, you can't do that even with editors. I've used several in efforts to test things on the fly while I modify all sorts of scripts, but I don't think the character file (or game engine) even allows for 3 traits. There's just no extra space to tell it the third one and the engine...

Sums up my view on the matter nicely. Thanks Dove. ;) -Wraith
