    And yes, it is difficult.

    Ugh, it's not like I expected it to be on this forum. Anyway, I figured out that combat is too hard, and that you have to run around the entire map gaining XP before even thinking about going to the BRC. Lots of problems remain though.

    Tess didn't tell me to go back to kill the deathclaw (which just, won't happen as it killed me in one turn), she just sits there and sobs. Really, lots of quests are kill this and kill that, but killing even a single critter is really hard. Where can you get NPCs to help you? I only have the dog so far.

    I'm pretty sure I'm going to start a new game, as this one is FUBAR (I've been radiated for a few months now). Any good tips on building a character?

    *edit* Fixed Tess thing, but killing the deathclaw is impossible. How many locations do you get from the BRC computer? I only got the military base. Where is Barter town located? What early locations should I go to, especially to get NPCs?


    *second edit* I got the fuse in Rust town, how am I supposed to repair the old machine? When I use the fuse on the machine it says "Does nothing". Same thing when I use my repair skill on it. Major bug?

    I've urm aquired a copy of this map, and as far as I can tell the problem is the Master. Through a process of elimination I ended up replacing the awaken\entities\AWAKEN\locations\map_bbb\amster.ent with core\entities\Special\Mission10\mis10_freak.ent (tagnamed Master and set to player index 15) and the map worked fine in TB mode.

    So I presume amster.ent got corrupted somehow though why that would only affect TB I don't know.

    See for your self:

    I installed awaken mod in original fallout dir, but no help if installed in separate palces. I tried to update awaken mod and Fallout T but no help too :( . instaling awaken from Setup_Awakenv132_English.exe this file.

    I am using XP with sp2. PLEASE, IF ANYBODY KNOWS THE SOLUTION, PLEASE HELP

    Anything to do with mods, be it making or playing them goes in the modding forum.

    Moved.

    From your screenshot it looks like you haven't patched the game. Patch it to 1.27 and then install and run Awaken.

    Hi to all :)
    I`m stuck in Awaken mod for FOT.
    After finishing 1st main quest, I headed to Military Base (Mutants), but cannot talk to anybody there. Where should I go now, or what should I do?
    I`ve finished the side quests in Oasis, Glow & Rust Town.
    Any help will be most appreciated
    Thanks

    Having a problem with finishing the quests in the very beginning of Awaken. The Coachroaches were easy enough, and I got the donuts for finishing that quest.

    However, I have the spirits for Henry, and the "strange white powder" that (I think/hope) is from Rebecca's room, but I can't get the quests to resolve. I go back, but I get nothing except the barter screen.

    So, am I having acutal problems, or am I just missing something stupidly simple??? (I did load the patch, just in case I needed that to fix any errors.<grrrrrrr>

    Thanks in advance, James

    Use the barter screen to give the items to the respective people and then the quests should be completed.

    Nope. Didn't work.

    I tried to use the spirits on him, but it won't let me, I tried using barter, but nothing.

    I can see others made it much father than I did, so I know there's a way. Anything else???

    If bartering the spirts didn't work, you have the wrong brand :P (he's a discerning drunkard), try a different bottle.

    Did you not see this? http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=148886&highlight=train#148886

    If that doesn't work delete the movie file, awaken\movie\train.bik and then load up your saved game. IIRC you can also try skipping the movie as soon as it starts.

    It's caused by a simple omission, they didn't add a wait command between the action to start the movie and the action to go to another map. So the game gets tied up trying to do both things at once.

    thanks for your help ! :)

    ok all finished.. not bad at all.... some sound effects were a little loud, and some of the text needed a better translation, i would have prefered the tactics sound effects, as i thought they were an improvement on fallout 1 and 2.... the end level (after the train) was great!
