Yesterday @Forgotten Knight released the long anticipated version 1.083 of the Fallout 2 total conversion mod Last Hope. Here's the download page.

You wake up in the Execution Chambers of a prison and, due to a total amnesia, are granted a second chance - or so you've been told. After fighting your way through a number of trials to prove your right to freedom, you'll be allowed to enter a new part of the fallout world, free, but with a task to find and eliminate a group of escaped convicts, a task that may put the entire wasteland at risk...

Main features of this mod are:
- new "mountain terrain" world map
- 17 new Locations (3 cities, 3 towns, 6 settlements, 3 Ruins and 2 maps)
- new NPCs, dialogues, scripts and quests
- new vehicles, not directly roadworthy but the trunk can be used to store items
- new items and weapons
- new main story
- checking the inventory of NPCs requires a steal roll
- adjusted combat difficulty and barter prices (new)
- automatic consumption of water & food rations, hunger & thirst system (new)
