    I is a ol' fogey (hardware question)

    Thanks for all the input and suggestions folks, seriously. I know exactly what's in the box right now including model numbers, (built it myself actually). I just sort of got... outdated, y'know? :| More memory is definitely a go and probably that 5200 or something similar. Thank you for...

    I is a ol' fogey (hardware question)

    Knowing me, I'd play through the main game once and then ditch it all for the world building tools. :) Plus (God forgive me) I'm an old-school D&D player. Not to give away my age, but I still have two booklets in a white box - if not the very first, one of the first D&D releases to my...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 1.0 (Unofficial FO2 Expansion)

    You is one dedicated dude. Can't wait to try it all out, and heartfelt thanks for seeing this through. It's one hell of a contribution to the community, and you should be proud.

    Fallout: A Post-Nuclear War role-playing game bugs

    I think I have to go with Per on this one. Money/equipment/etc awards can be withheld if the NPC doesn't like the character, but experience rewards are something different. They're just experience for things you've done, not how many drugs you were on when you did them. Killing the NPC in...

    Flamer vs Bozar

    I like the idea of the normal flamer not being able to use Mk2 fuel, with the improved flamer able to use both. I don't know if that could be done though. I've actually never seen this.

    I is a ol' fogey (hardware question)

    I came into this aware I'd have to go online to find parts for this dinosaur. :) Motherboard: ASUS K7V Slot A - 1x/2x/4x AGP Slot Processor: AMD Athlon 800 MHz Memory: 256 MB My current vid card is an old ATI Rage. This is a great system for me, I'd just like a bit more power for...

    Flamer vs Bozar

    Okay, apparently it was the mushrooms. After spending the morning burning Vault City to the ground (very cathartic by the way, I hate that place) I've come up with some numbers. This isn't exactly scientific, I just walked in with both flamers and 50 rounds of both fuels and fried anything...

    How did you discover Fallout ?

    Bought it brand new off the shelf, fondly remembering my ol' Commodore 64 and Wasteland. :)

    Fallout 1 mod FO1 to FO2 conversion, for real

    To actually make F2 a continuation of F1 would require a LOT of story rewriting, since you wouldn't be a "stupid tribal" anymore. As for the character's age, I guess you could say the radiation from the Glow mutated you, giving you a long lifespan like a ghoul without melting your skin off or...

    Flamer vs Bozar

    Ah screw it, I'm gonna go take out Vault City. I'll report back. :twisted:

    I is a ol' fogey (hardware question)

    I've been using essentially the same computer since 1998 or thereabouts. Nice solid system, does almost what I want. Still running Win98, kinda resistant to trading up - bad personal experiences with XP, and I'm not into the "new" games much - Fallouts, Baldur's Gate, Arcanum, etc. are more my...

    Is this possible?

    Based on those pictures, I'd make it a rifle/shotgun with a high ST requirement and AP cost, and a low ammo capacity. An SMG doesn't really seem to fit. That's just one guy's opinion though. I'm not sure that thrown weapons could also be treated as ammunition, but I'm probably not the guy...

    Have I mentioned lately that you da man?

    Flamer vs Bozar

    One thing in your equation: The Bozar shoots more bullets, meaning the Bonus Ranged Damage perk should apply to every bullet fired, not the burst as a whole. Plus the ammo used is highly effective which will alter the "on paper" stats. I like to keep a flamer around anyway but that's...

    Spreading the Fallout greatness :)

    I'd say it counts extra. If he's playing Fallout instead of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi II, that's a step in the right direction for our youth. :)

    Have You Seen These Bugs II

    Definitely not something I've ever come across. I would say either Solon's answer is correct or this individual is used to Fallout Tactics.

    Spreading the Fallout greatness :)

    1 person, both Fallouts, borrowed one at a time from me. When he was playing F2 he called me up and asked about the dream sequences - he was still a touch paranoid about the time limits in F1. :) After that, he went out and found his own copies. I should also mention that he's a total...

    Fallout 2 mod FO2 Engine Tweaks (Sfall)

    This may have been addressed or may be totally impossible. Who knows? One thing I would love to see would be the ability to reorganize your inventory without needing to use a container or your active items slots. i.e. You click on an item and drag it to the location in your inventory you...

    Have You Seen These Bugs II

    I tend to travel light and not hoard items, but I can say with 99% assuredness that the evil number of PIPBoy entries is twelve. I’ve paid close attention to this in both F1 and F2 and it's the same number in both - Eleven is fine, twelve and you instantly hit problems. It also doesn’t make...
