Bit frustrated... My save game is corrupted. When I try to load it, I get an error saying cannot load game. I'm frustrated because I just had a grueling fight clearing out a cave full of robbers, and really don't wish to repeat it. Here is the corrupted save...

Glad you were able to reproduce it yourself! Ah, thanks for the background. That's ridiculous that Windows works that way. I would expect it to just be a simple shortcut so there would be no difference between using the shortcut and the EXE. Like having one method that simply wraps another...

I reproduced the issue, and found a workaround. The issue is caused by using the start menu shortcut that I let Vista generate for me by right-clicking on the fallout executable and selecting "Pin to start menu". When I run the executeable directly, everything just works. One other consequence...

First, thank you so much for taking the time to help me with my problem! I reinstalled FO2 and the mod from scratch into a clean directory. Then deployed the save and it still breaks. Version of game=1.0 (the installation instructions for the mod said it was not necessary to patch to 1.02...

My game crashes every time I try to talk to someone. This started happening after I got some healing powders made by Hakunin. I tried to talk to Klint, Sulik, and Ms. Buckner and the game crashes. The error: "Application Error C:\Fallout2\FALLOUT2.EXE The instruction at 1000c0f8 referenced...

Re: perception problems Also, game seems to freeze quite often in combat when I have the speed multiplier on. Though it's only been happening around the Vault City area and hasn't happened before then. So far it's happened 3 times around Vault City. A bit annoying when the past 3 out of 4...

Again, sorry for not catching that earlier. I did do a search through this topic trying to find mentions of my problems, but my search criteria doesn't match what other people write. I assume there is no way to fix the permanent perception modifier once it's been incurred?

that fixed it, thanks. My search criteria wasn't hitting that post. Couple other queries: 1) I assume that when the random element from NPC leveling is removed, NPCs still don't level every time I level, correct? I ask because when I leveled to 8, Sulik and Vic both leveled to 2, but...

This one is finally about playing the mod. I got Klint at level 2 and Sulik at level 3. When I hit level 5, neither of them had leveled once. I went into the ddraw.ini and turned off the random element in party leveling, hoping that it would fix the problem. Then I leveled to 7, and...

Thank you, it finally worked! I thought I had already tried that memory address. Apparently I must have had a typo and failed to verify. I tested the first memory address more (the 168) because I thought sfall was looking for memory address 168 but kept getting returned 348 from fallout2.exe...

Oh my goodness, thank you. I missed it in this thread because it didn't match my exact search phrase. Sorry, but what's the CRC code that I want to put in? I looked at the properties of the executable but didn't see any "CRC code". I skimmed the wikipedia article on CRC and even googled...

Ah, okay. I installed 9.0c, and started fallout 2. This time, new error! I'm sorry I'm having so much trouble, but could you please tell me what's wrong with my game? All I did was install the megamod. I'm pretty sure I AM running v1.02, though it might be Killap's patch. But, if I...

My DirectX is not of date. Your readme says I need 9.0c or or later. I have 11. 11 > 9.0c. So it should work, right? Or do I need to install an older version of directX to get this to work?

I'm having sfall problems too! None of the solutions in this topic worked. I installed Megamod 2.35, then the 2.35.2 patch, then the 2.40 patch. Then I tried to run the game, and it told me sfall was out of date. I updated sfall from 2.0b to 2.2b, and ran it. Now I get an error This...
