Fallout 2 mod Fallout et tu - Release v1.7

try adding ddraw.dll and f2_res.dll (both native and builtin) in winecfg dll overrides. If you haven't touched upon that you've probably did not install, directX libraries either. It will be hard to run fallout without theese. anyways there are some stickies how to run Fallout on Wine under MacOS or whatever in the stickies look for your answeres there.
EDIT: while you're at it you may want to also consider adding VC++ libraries (at least 2015 if not all of them [ also both x86 and x64 ] )

 

I'm having issues with changing my resolution. In the current versions, the in-game menu has no effect for me, no matter what I configure, be it scale 2x, windowed, you name it. Even rebooting the game isn't guaranteed to apply my changes.

I had to roll all the way back to version 1.0 before the menu worked properly.

 

The only mode that isn't DX9 in SFALL is Mode 0 for 8-bit fullscreen.

But it worked for me so the screen config works again. Although, in theory, F2RES itself is configured by default to use DX9 so the game's probably still using it even if SFALL's settings disable it.

Thanks for the response =b

 

I see.

Personally, I'm still running Windows 8.1.

 

Where do you find the motorcycle?

 

BTW, I noticed that the INI files in the config folder allow you to configure, among other things, the behavior of the Skills system.

Including the ability to disable the x2 skill point bonus to Tagged skills.

Is that a potential way to, le gasp, make Skill perks useful? :O

 

Whenever I set my resolution to 1920x1080 the game crashes with a generic "memory could not be read" error on launch. Any smaller resolution works. It will play the splash screen then immediately shit itself.

 

@Lexx
I found several NPCs that use generic "tell me about" texts instead of their own "tell me about" texts.
(I'll check a few more characters and give you a list here)

Next I would have two questions:

1) In the BoS bunker, there is a female paladin (right at the entrance on the first floor) who has a virtually complete romance written in her texts, which has never been activated.
Do you think you could reactivate it?

2) This is more of a personal question: How hard would it be to add a few new holodisks to the game?
"Hundreds of years ago" one of the original F1 translators (to my language) added a few holodisks to the game with a few extra texts and I would like to restore them in my translation of et tu. I know that the holodisk, which must be able to be read in pipboy, is probably a lot more complicated than an ordinary item, so I'd rather ask if it makes sense to try at all.

 

Can I add more days to the main mission like in FIXT?
Thanks :3

 

How do I add fuel to the bike?

 

It's the same as how you charge your car in vanilla Fallout 2.

 

A small note about the region Warehouse in Boneyard.
(The place where deathclaws live.)

It's not a warehouse...
It's an old cinema.

This is clearly visible from the layout of the building, movie posters on the walls and about a dozen mentions in dialogues where everyone says that Rippers had a base in an old cinema. Wouldn't it be much more logical to rename the whole area to "cinema" or "old cinema"? This thing has got on my nerves for almost twenty years...

 

It's how the devs original set it. As a total conversion mod, I doubt Lex would change content. Outside of project's scope.

 

@Lexx
All characters have been checked and these show problems:

1) Three stupid mutants in a waterworks in Necropolis - They have their own dialogues and their own "tell me about" texts, but both is unused.
(Although it may be remnants of unused texts from the original game.)
2) Bouty hunter Chriss - His "tell me about" texts will give you errors.
3) Seth in Shady Sands - He uses generic "tell me about" texts, instead of his own, original ones.
4) Water Guard in Vault 13 - He uses generic "tell me about" texts, instead of his own, original ones.
(But in his defense, his own "tell me about" texts are not very extensive.)

 

@Lexx
This does not directly relate to et tu, but is it possible to copy the "doors close automatically" option from et tu and use it regular Fallout 2 (wit the RP installed)?
