OK, I now see my issue. I use Fallout 2 CE, as per your instructions over at https://cambragol.github.io/Fallout-Sonora/download/. My problem was that I only copied F2_res.ini over and not ddraw.ini. With the latter in its proper place, it now works fine! Thank you for the help and also for the...

Hi, I'm really excited to finally play Sonora! Before I start though, I wonder if there is a way to change the resolution. Maybe I'm missing something obvious... Thanks.

Thank you for the answer! Hmm, it's very strange, I tried installing it my Fallout 2 folder, but that didn't work. Is it because I use the GoG version? I don't have a CD-ROM drive anymore, so I couldn't use the original disk. It isn't a problem, though, because I could run the Fallout Nevada...

Hi, I'm having trouble running the Fallout Nevada installer (latest version, as per 2020-04-07). Regardless of where I try to install the files--my C drive, D drive, the Fallout 2 game folder (I use the GoG version), inside Program Files or Program Files (x86), or without--I get a pop-up window...

Wait, were people actually trying to remake Fallout 3 in Fallout 4's engine? Why?! What would be the point? I mean, even if you liked Fallout 3, the only improvement would be graphical, right? Granted, I've never seen more of Fallout 4 than maybe a total of 30 minutes of gameplay on Youtube, but...

I woke up by falling out of bed and hurting my knee. I was out of milk, so I had to eat my cereal dry. I came in late to work and my boss yelled at me. At lunch I got mustard all over my shirt. When I got home, my wife divorced me and the dog had eaten both our kids. Also, on the news they said...

I have such fond memories of that car trunk. At first I didn't even realize it was a bug, I just thought that when the Highwayman ran out of fuel, my clever character fashioned a make-shift hand cart from the rear part of the car. Only when the trunk continued to follow me underground and spawn...

Yeah, I thought that was silly and felt completely out of place in a game that was touted as a return of the old school RPGs. However, Obsidian made the feature optional, so I can't say I have anything against it. If you don't like it, like me, don't use it. Unfortunately, the Bethesda way of...

The inclusion of synth cats would have been a nice nod to Philip K. Dick, considering how synthetic animals play such a big part of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (which is something that wasn't carried over to the Bladerunner movie). I have no problem with having real cats in F4, though...

Yes. We are also counting actual barks by Dogmeat.

On Amazon, the game has a 2.3/5 (and that's on a scale of 1-5, since you can't give 0s) and only people who actually bought a product can review it.

I don't get it, the critic metascore has now slipped to 86, from 87 earlier today, but the number of reviews hasn't changed and is still 19. I'm no INT 10/Science 100 kid, but that can't be right--did some reviewer change their score or sumfink? As for the alleged removal of negative user...

My favorite argument ever. Change is good in itself, it's progress and should be accepted, even embraced, without question. It's very comforting to hear that when your house is on fire or when you are diagnosed with a serious illness. Just stop hating and accept the change, it's easier for...

There was a PC Gamer article today called What the critics, players, and my dad think about Fallout 4, yet there wasn't a single mentioning of the 4.7 Metacritic score. The writer did mention the Steam ratings, but only so far as to relate the number of positive reviews. The fact that the game...

Well, to be fair, he was one of the more complex, well written and believable characters in FO3...
