    Fallout 2 mod Fallout 2 Restoration Project Discussion (ideas/suggestions)

    Forgive me if this has been mentioned (I didn't read the whole 33 pages). Upon fighting the Masticator, wasn't it originally intended that the fight would take place in Bishop's basement boxing ring? If you've already killed Bishop maybe it wouldn't make sense, then the fight could be held...

    Why Throwing Knives Suck, and what to do about it.

    I haven't ever used the throwing skill in Fallout 2 so forgive me if it works the same way as in Fallout Tactics. In Fallout Tactics, it seems to work like this: As your throwing skill increases, the AP cost to throw grenades decrease. That could make the throwing skill more useful (unless it...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    Movement was lagging for me in the Den but only when the ghost (Anna) was visible (it never lagged during the day), and only on that map. As soon as I gave her the amulet (and she disappeared) the lagging stopped. I don't have a save unfortunately. (This was also without the high-res patch.)...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    One crash every few hours is about how often I get them too. I remember reading in Per Jorner's walkthrough that the fights in San Fran have a tendency to become bugged if you kill your opponent (rather than just reducing his hitpoints or knocking him unconscious). Still I was able to...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    I had a similar problem (except nobody could do any damage - the hit points were not reduced and it wasn't displayed) in a save which I unfortunately didn't keep. I know exactly how it happened though: I saved during combat and then reloaded. (It also happened in the Cameron fight by the way.)...

    Ahh okay, now I see why: I can't see the exit grid.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    Can I just install the latest hi-res patch on top of this installation, without having to go through the trouble of reinstalling the whole game and the RP? [EDIT] I tried to just install it, and yes, it works! EPA loads just fine now. Very nice! Thanks Mash.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    I would be very surprised if this was bug-free on release. No matter how many testers you have, when a large amount of people start playing the game (rather than just testing parts of it looking for bugs) they will always find more. The best testers are usually the community. If you want to play...

    Guns, guns, guns

    I didn't say the people should be allowed to do whatever they want. I said they should be allowed to own whatever they want. And what right do they have? They are elected by the people, then they are making whatever laws they want and justify it by manipulating the uneducated masses with...

    Guns, guns, guns

    At least I provided a logical argument. If you would rather not have the opportunity to defend youself, fine. But if I want to be able to defend myself, then who are you - or anyone else - to say that I can't own a gun? What right do you have to make that decision for me?

    Guns, guns, guns

    Knives, spears and clubs are the oldest weapons in human history. They were all designed for killing. It is true that most knives today are designed for utility but you still have bayonets and combat knives, for example. Tasers are ineffective. A "stun gun" (the type that doesn't shoot two...

    Guns, guns, guns

    Common sense, my friend. Although I think it should be called rare sense. Yes. You stated that I was wrong and provided no arguments whatsoever except that the people are stupid and need to be governed. Are we having a discussion here or do you only feel the need to argue? Ever stopped to...

    Guns, guns, guns

    Whatever. It doesn't mean I'm not right. Morality is an extension of the laws of nature. The is no randomness or interpretation. Either it is right, or it isn't. People can of course have different opinions in which case either they are wrong and I'm right, or I'm wrong and someone else is...

    Guns, guns, guns

    The way I see it, I think a lot of people are missing an important point: What right does the government have to forbid people to walk around with whatever they want wherever they want? Or, for that matter, to own whatever they want? Merely owning a tank causes no damage to anyone. Walking...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    I found a bug in Modoc, using the 2.0.2 version. When you try to talk to Farrel you can't reach him (you get a "can't reach" message). I'm guessing this is the same as the earlier rug issue since he's standing on one of the new rugs. Still I didn't enter Modoc earlier with that save, I reloaded...
