Two thumbs way up. While I honestly knew *most* of the information in Per's guides (though not the wasteland one), I'll freely admit there was still plenty I wasn't aware of and lots more I wasn't *positive* about the specifics. They also happen to be the ONLY guides I've ever seen for...

Wow... thanks guys. Lots of stuff to play around with. Just figuring out what half of the 'new' ones do, let alone the proper parameters should keep me busy for a couple days. ;) -Wraith

"Secret laws" are crap. If they can punish me regardless of ignorance of them, they better damn well at least make them available for me to review first. The whole airport security placebo is equally crap. I have relatives who work for the airlines. They can explain very easily how all...

You can find the unofficial FO2 1.05 patch (as well as the update for it) here: http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/dload.php?action=category&cat_id=16 It's been out for quite a while.. like, since 2003 or so. Be sure to check the readme and make sure everything in there is something you want...

Yeah, that was what I meant about X number of normal saves and X quicksaves. I probably wasn't very clear. The idea is you'd have say 2 - 5 qucksave slots, which you'd want to alternate but use often (before conversations, battles, whatever) The "normal saves" you'd want 2 - 5 also, say...

:shock: Um... Ok, n00b question #1042 here but... I just searched everything I have on script commands, including all the FO2 headers I could think of that would potentially hold defines for these, and they don't appear anywhere... So, assuming they do in fact work in scripts, er...

Noted, and sorry if I came off a little strong. I didn't intend it that way, but re-reading I can see it might have seemed so. I guess the real attitude where people actually feel (and game developers keep trying to convince us) that "empty but pretty eye candy == best game evah!" irks me...

First off, good graphics != good games. In fact, more often than not, it's entirely the opposite. Some company puts out a load of trash that's essentially just a copy of a game that's already been done under 4 names and tries to make it "uber" by putting a bunch of pretty eye candy on top...

Actually, that's not entirely true. DURING the game, there's actually an auto-healing loop that ensures you can't kill the overseer before the game ends (since he's required to "finish out" the 3 main quest lines). However, if you have Bloody Mess, or I think you're tagged as a Berzerker...

Indeed. If I'm not misreading what you mean, I'd be rather interested in how that works. Specifically, things such as a script popping up a dialogue box with a cusom message and a couple buttons -like the one you get when you click the exit button- which would then pass the result as a...

I don't think 1.04 does, but 1.05 will. There are things I don't like in 1.05 though, BUT.. there's also a seperate add-on mod that will work just fine on top of 1.04 (or 1.02 or whatever else really) that does it too. I *think* that's right anyway - would have to look at all the archives...

Well, upon reflection my "hello" message I thought I'd put here was aparently one of the ones that my browser ate when my router decided to barf on me. I'd thought it was only one in another section. Silly me. Anyways... I live up here in chilly Wisconsin USA, where there's little to do...

LOL Yeah. Moore is just the guy I'd go to for factual and unbiased data. Yeah... right after I ride my pet monkey to the moon maybe.. Anyways, all statistics are inherently flawed. A good example is the quotes up there saying how 53% feel it's a big problem etc. You may note, they...

Iplay may be gone, but someone out there owns the rights. Wouldn't be the first time a "classics" release came out from a different company other than the original owner. On the other hand, if no one bothers long enough, the games will all eventually pass into abandonware public domain...

Glad you got it working, I know very little about the OSX release, but I do know that fallout (especially 2, but still applies to 1) does sometimes have a tendancy to corrupt certain parts of savegames. The most notroious is the too many items bug in FO2, but there are others. What you...

Well, quite frankly windows XP (actually anything from about win95 up, but especially XP) hates dos sound configs. You can get them to work, but without looking at your device settings, control panel, and config files, I have no way to tell you which settings WILL work. All I could do is...

Appreciate it Shadowbird. Is there a list of these somewhere so if I run into more of them (which wouldn't shock me) I don't have to keep pestering people? I kinda figured they must be things Noids didn't quite know how to decompile right when I looked at 'em, but it was beyond me (besides...

OK... new question. It still deals directly with the topic though, and good manners taught me it's always best to try to add to a topic than begin a new one when possible.. so... I've been hacking my way through several scripts with slow but steady progress using Noid's decompiler, then FSE...

Hey Ian, do me a favor and cary these plastic explosives for me will you? ;) -Wraith

Well if not, he's a bit confused since Ian (or any NPC in Fallout for that matter) can't use grenades in the first place. I remember the first time I ever played Fallout and gave Ian my second SMG I found. I was alternately shocked, amused, and annoyed at all the reloading I had to do from...
