    Fallout 2 mod Mutants Rising...

    It _REALLY_ helps to know the basics of how C/C++ works (C in particular, since there are no classes in Fallout's StarTrek Scripting language). Specifically, SSL (StarTrek Scripting Language) is an amalgamation of C and Pascal, though it doesn't have some of the nicer functionality that C offers...

    Fallout 2 utility ProtoManager virus?

    Good question, I don't know where to get older versions though, so this may not be answered until Mr. Stalin bothers to return here. Although, I doubt he would bother responding, since he hasn't bothered to clean up the code enough to remove the false positive yet.

    Fallout 2 mod filling tiles a critter can see

    I saw that last weekend, looks pretty awesome! Going to try out set_global_script_repeat() this weekend, see how well it works. Yeah, there is a short stutter whenever the player moves, and I haven't quite worked out how to get the script to detect critter movement yet, but I'll probably try...

    Fallout 2 mod filling tiles a critter can see

    Ok, I went a completely different direction this weekend, and just passed an object around the screen checking if the critter could see it or not. After some iterations trying to speed up the process (passing a critter object around 40k tiles sure does bog the engine down) I've come up with...

    Fallout 2 mod filling tiles a critter can see

    Hey! Here's another question from my adventures into the scripting realm. I'm trying to write a script that will place an object on every tile the critter can see in sneak mode. I borrowed the gl_withinperception.ssl script to start working with, and these are the modifications I've made so...

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    aw thanks for the support! its fine though. I often get people dropping by the stream helping me out with the scripting, so this hasn't been nearly as difficult as the lack of responses would suggest. For instance, here's my latest version of this script: #include "..\headers\define.h"...

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    Ok, so the script seems to work more or less consistently, on successful hit the engine will spawn one of the random goo types on the ground (though it doesn't work sometimes, and only seems to work on first hit, not subsequent attacks). HOOK_AFTERHITROLL doesn't give you the weapon used...

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    ok, crazy thing happened last weekend, I was trying out a different script with this one running in the background and it totally started working. Don't know why it won't work on my sand-box map though.

    Does fallout engine support unicode/wide characters?

    I'm getting toward the end of making a modding tool for Fallout/Fallout 2, and I'm discovering there are a couple of technical aspects I don't know very well. I know Fallout/Fallout 2 were/are incredibly popular in Russia, and I've seen the game played in russian text on russian speaking streams...

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    ZIBRAPOO is just a script attached to the poop itself. It destroys the poop on map_enter and when a shovel is used on it, but that's it. Its possible create_object_sid() has some compatibility issues with the sfall hook though, any thoughts?

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    hmm...ok I was afraid of that. Well, here's my first attempt, it loads and the debug message displays, but it doesn't seem to create the poop yet: procedure start begin if game_loaded then begin display_msg("Debug: Poop_bomb script loaded..."); register_hook_proc(HOOK_AFTERHITROLL...

    Fallout 2 mod Place items/scenery on the ground on successful attack?

    Me again, with another odd scripting question. I've been looking through a lot of the original Fallout scripts and haven't found an answer yet, is it possible to place an item on the ground when attacking? A specific example I can think of is the flare...when thrown it will hit the critter and...

    Well, whatever you do, thank you for your contributions! And a special thank you for making the code open source! It really helps out all us noobs to be able to see how the older modders solved these problems, especially the visual ones you worked on :) edit: Oh one thing, you have a link to a...

    Fallout II Visually Enhanced Patch (FKA Hi-Res Patch)

    Hey! this sounds amazing! Unfortunately I can't get it to work yet, keeps giving me an error: "Error initializing video mode 1920x1080" I got v4.18 with zoom to work though, so I'm not sure why the VE version isn't working. On Windows 7 with steam install of Fallout 2. Tested with vanilla...

    Wait, don't some of the merchants that have weapons equipped drop them into their shop inventory sometimes?
