    Ok, a question FROM me for a change...

    Well, if I remember correctly some people have found the offsets on how to edit the perks. I'll look around - and that's hoping you can indeed change the rad resistance... Try asking Temaperacl about them. Otherwise, do you know how radiation damage normally happens other then when hit by...

    Fallout & Fallout 2 LCD Sprite issue, PLEASE HELP !

    Yeah that was my though however I don't quite grasp what he means by lines... When the LCD performs scaling it should fill the gaps... Sometimes there are options to tell the screen NOT to scale (usually inthe BIOS).

    Ok, a question FROM me for a change...

    Indeed they are hard-coded. You can always make your own albeit they won't exactly act like normal perks. ChildKiller, Grave digger, Gecko Skinning are all perks only done through scripting, so it's not impossible to code new ones - but they won't be available through traditional means.

    Random fallout 2 lockups, wtf

    You don't need to nuke any HD to install 2000 (or XP) over 98. In fact when you do you can boot both (if you wish so).

    Fallout & Fallout 2 LCD Sprite issue, PLEASE HELP !

    it being sprite based has nothing to do with anything... I never heard such an obcsure reason to explain a bug. How would you describe those lines? 1 black line from to to bootom every few pixels? Can you take a snapshot or something? (I would guess that a screenshot (F12) wouldn't display...

    Fallout Mod: Randomizing every location...

    That's an EXE patch though, not a script patch.

    Command line Dat Packer/Unpacker

    Just wondering why you need a command line packer... If you use the directory structure correctly you'll only need to make the patch file once: to build your own patch000.dat for you mod... (unless you're planning on working with "mod controller" programs of course in which case the name doesn't...

    Fallout Tactics Editor Help

    You mean the occlusion principle? Or perhaps simply trying to get tiles to dissapear a bit ahead of time? In the latter case you'll need to put invisible tiles. I don't quite recall where it is and how you toggle viewing them though. It's been quite a while for me. ColJack: I just re-read...

    Fallout 2 - Rat caves problem...

    FO demo, FO, FO2 pics all have backgrounds. It's FOT. And (as usual) per is right as it's labelled "Betray" in FOT.

    How many characters to have in party and leveling.

    That's right, they have to be with you for them to level up. Not just on the screen either (even though they join to fight with you) - in the team.

    Fallout 2 - Rat caves problem...

    The reason is that the 10mm pistol is in the inventory of a dead body. If you leave the map and return, the body will turn into a pool of blood. When this happens ONLY the WEILDED weapons remain on the ground. Since the pistol is in the inventory, it dissapears. It's not really bug... Think...

    FRM file format - Critters

    You should have asked beforehand... I've dealt with all this quite a while ago :P (albeit to display them not to make them)

    Problems With The Torr Quest

    I've spend quite a bit of time investigating this. Right now my only hunch is that the game screwed up while counting the radscorpions. When you kill the last scorpion, you should get the message "You've killed all the radscorpions that were threatening the brahmin." in the pipboy. If you've...

    Fallout Mod: Randomizing every location...

    I guess you don't read the press often... When an editor adds a comment or makes the text clearer, he'll traditionally put the comment in square brackets, usually also in italics. So now in addition to knowing what to do with those folders/files, you also learned something about press editing!

    Quick question

    Actually you couldn't have a 100% same layout in Word no matter the computer you view it on. Don't even think about talking to me about HTML for print layout. Changing minor browser version changes everything... As for Word, well, first it's quite limited in pagination, second you NEED ALL...

    Split from troubleshooting

    Just a note about the XP Blackout bug. Instead of always unintalling.reinstalling drivers, you could simply create a profile (name it "Fallout"). Boot in it then disable the video drivers. Once you're done playing simply boot the computer and return to the default profile. It's a bit more...

    Fallout Mod: Randomizing every location...

    Hey... why don't you try to read my "How the engine finds files" thread? huh? Here's a link in case you missed the sticky. Of course I write a 1000 word report on how FO2 finds files with a 500word addendum but people don't read it. Maybe I should make a shorter version.

    Quick question

    Well, the nice thing about the pdf is if you have a good color printer you can print the front page - just like the real manual! Then print the rest of the manual with a good laser printer and spiral up the thing! The biggest problem might be finding a spiral-hole making machine. I would guess...

    Quick question

    Looks fine on my 22" screen. Obviously it's a bit blocky. Some newer cheap screens sometimes leave gabs between pixels in lower resolutions which might make it look crappy though.

    How the FO2 engine finds it's data.

    Even more about directories (well, just a bit). I just found out (say you're working on a translation - though clever people could find other good uses for this) that changing the "language" setting in the Fallout2.cfg actually looks for whatever you put in there in the text folder. Rename...
