I don't know why no one replied this before, but this is simply one of the most analytical and informative posts on this forum. It could actually qualify as Fallout science. Thanks for publishing your paper here. I just wish there was some peer review of it from other members.

Here's a massive bug that costed me several NPCs: Do not try to fight in the ring in San Fran (and probably in New Reno too) with any NPCs following you. Their models will be replaced with yours, some of them will later become invisible when stationary, and cause random crashes of the game.

Works good. So far the only bug I found is that NPCs confuse weapon animation (if there are is a weapon in each active slot) and after a fight they can't shoot until they hit the re-switch button.

I think I found a solution. The Hi-res patch that comes with RP 2.2 is one year old. I installed the newest version and all seems to be working well now.

I also tried to play around with "verynice" and renice. No effect. However, I think it must be something like that, because the game randomly works perfectly smooth. For hours. And then it stops again.

Where could I find those unofficial compiles?

Is it possible to control party members during combat? If so - how? I couldn't find any information other than "sfall has this option". I set ControlPartyMembers=1 in ddraw.ini, but it doesn't have any effect. They still do what they want in combat.

I didn't renice anything. But this is a broad subject, so if you could help me out with some concretes I'd appreciate it quite a bit. I tried the regedit trick and I thought it worked for a while - at least it seemed a bit less choppy(or maybe it was just my impression), but after an...

I find random encounters with hubulogists around SanFran a very good source of high-value guns and rare ammo. Will those encounters cease if I kill ASH-9 and the hubulogists in San Francisco HQ? Also, will I still be able to get to the secret Hubulogists base (not the one in SanFran)...

I observed something else. After I started Fallout, I run Diablo2 also in wine, on another desktop of the same laptop. And suddenly Fallout2 became VERY playable. Almost smooth. It lasted for several hours, but at some point I closed Diablo, and Fallout went back to hell. Now, I tried your...

I got RP 2.2 to work on Wine, but there is one issue - mouse! First, it was really slow, even in the menus. So I did what wiki says Except, it made things even worse - now mouse does move faster, but only in a narrow area of the game screen, if I try to get up to main menu buttons, the...

I installed it as it says in RP2.2 thread. It didn't start (Cities error). So I went to Faloout2 Wiki and did the dx9 thing, and run it with WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n" wine FALLOUT2.EXE Now, all I get is "Error initializing video mode 1400x1050." And I tried it with all...

Would it be possible to remove screen lock in combat outside of your own turn? This is very annoying if there are many characters fighting, and your screen gets stuck somewhere where you can't see anything until your next turn begins (and you may die before that happens).

CommonOddity If this is partially addressed to me, I am running Arch 64, xfce strippedo of desktop manager (pcmanfm as desktop manager), compiz, Core 2 Due, NV Quadro, etc. Apart form fps issues (which largely went away after switching GPUBlt to 1), I am getting an occasional windows box...

Ok, it worked but made the fps drop made things veeery choppy. I'd rather see less and have the game playable. How do I go back without downgrading sfall and HiRes patch? Changing scaller options between 0-7 in ddraw.ini does not seem to have any effect.

jirik, do you have extra resolution menu in the Main Menu? Because I haven't. And in what order you install those things?

I have this set this way already.

Right, I used to play with Hi Res patch and it worked fine. The problem is, I am now playing RP and it looks like you can't have both.

Is there any way to enable hi rez when playing Restoradion Mod 2.1.2b on WINE? I have not found one. The screen always scales up, or remains in original resolution, but with huge black box around it.

I would gladly use hi rez mod, but found no way to do so, as you could see in my previous posts in this thread.
