    What makes good and bad quest design?

    Yeah that's true, most of the rules have exceptions like this. I think generally rewarding specialisation makes for good replayability (eg thieves' guild quest only available for thief characters) as it gives you new things to do for every new build you try. But too much of that means less...

    what the new vegas ending that should be canon

    House makes sense from a storytelling perspective because it allows the three factions to all exist for the 'sequel', as well as the minor factions. All House really needs to do to win is get the platinum chip and activate the Securitron bunker, then let the NCR and Legion wear each other down...

    Fallout 2 utility How to recolor sprites automatically: a Python script to replace colors in FRM files.

    By request, here's the red-haired Katja leather jacket sprite. This is auto-replaced so there will be an orange pixel here and there on the jacket unfortunately, I haven't done it manually yet. To use these the files should be placed in Fallout 2/data/art/critters.

    Wild Wasteland for Classic Fallout?

    I don't doubt it's possible if you replaced a useless trait, it would be a lot of work though. It would probably be easier to make a mod that just removes that stuff and someone who wants Wild Wasteland could just play vanilla.

    What makes good and bad quest design?

    Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this but I'm working on a Fallout 2 mod and I'm thinking about how to make the various sidequests good, or at least not bad. I'd love some input on what factors impact how much you like doing a quest. Now I know the answer to a lot of this is 'It...

    Fallout TV Series season 2 teaser for a trailer

    It's funny that they could have solved all these plotholes by just putting the new vaults near where Shady Sands actually is, which is maybe what they planned originally. That would raise the question of why the Overseer didn't send you to those as well as Vault 15, but that could be explained...

    Fallout TV Series season 2 teaser for a trailer

    The only thing I'm vaguely looking forward to is the 6 hour video essays.

    Fallout 2 utility How to recolor sprites automatically: a Python script to replace colors in FRM files.

    Here's a big update for this tool. I got ChatGPT to write me a tkinter GUI for it. Here is what it looks like with the Katja metal armour critter from Fallout Fixt. The problem with the original script was that it recolours the entire image whether you want it to or not, like this: But with...

    This might not be the most blasphemous game anymore...

    I wouldn't believe for a second that Ubisoft would release a game with an attractive woman dressed like that in the promo art in the current year. But yeah it looks like it would absolutely fit for Far Cry 1 or 3 minus the BOS tattoo.

    Fallout 2 utility How to recolor sprites automatically: a Python script to replace colors in FRM files.

    Thanks! I haven't tested this so take it with a grain of salt but what I was thinking about was editing, say, the top 40% of the frame by doing something like this: frameimage[0:n] = [144 if i==196 else i for i in frameimage[0:n]] where n=int(np.floor(0.4*framesize))) is the number of...

    Fallout 2 utility How to recolor sprites automatically: a Python script to replace colors in FRM files.

    Hi Quantum, I'm a fan of your Youtube series. I just uploaded it to Github here: https://github.com/Dr-Felix116/frm_recolour_python Your program looks promising, a paint-like tool for FRMs is something the modding scene is lacking. I'd be happy to help out if I can, send me a DM and we can chat...

    Fallout 2 utility How to recolor sprites automatically: a Python script to replace colors in FRM files.

    Have you ever wanted a bright pink super mutant? Maybe you want to give Myron a red shirt, make combat armour blue, make a critter's blood green, or change the skin or hair colour of some NPC. I made a Python script to recolor FRM files en masse (it also works for .FR0 to .FR5) while editing...
