Replacing sprites

carlocijs

First time out of the vault
Is there a way that I can (Or you, becuz I don't know how to hack) replace Cassidy's sprite into a Navarro or Enclave soldier? I wanted to use the program called FUCK for that, but it won't let me open critter pro files. Here's what I did: "Downloaded FUCK and unzipped it, and used it. I said, open existing .pro file. I went to my fallout 2 folder, data, (I forgot what this file was called), anyway, after that, I chose critter. I saw pro files over. And they WERE critters. But FUCK says it isn't a valid critter .pro file. What have I done wrong?
 
Use any of the mappers to open VCTYCTYD.map, select Cassidy; if you are using Dims Mapper select properties and change his FRM id last two digits to 47. If you are using the official mapper I think you can select the critter frm if you left-click under the critter hex (after selecting critters on the object type menu) this should eventually bring up the critter's name in the box in the bottom right corner to indicate the critter is selected; then click edit and there should be an option to select the graphic you want.
 
Will NMA's "fallout 2 3D mapper Beta" work? Or do I need another mapper? Because I can't find Dims mapper. anyway, thanks for helping me out!

No that is not an editing utility, try the link to Dims mapper above.
 
I ve try lots of time to change cassidy sprite but it not change.. but sulik sprites change ..
someone know why?
 
Maybe you have missed something:
- are you using a save where you have already been to that location?
- Have you extracted the Patch000.dat file to your fallout directory and moved, renamed or deleted the dat file? IMPORTANT
The Vault City Courtyard map is in the patch file so if the patch dat is running the map in the dat will be used; files you place in /data/ directory only patch the master dat, not the Patch000.dat.
If you have followed the above procedure and still have problems, I have an edited map with Cassidy in power armor; here is the link.

Have fun
 
i ve do it but nothing.. the only npc that works are sulik and lenny.
marcus ,myron and cassidy doesen't change :(
 
Are you sure you have removed the Patch000.dat from the fallout2/data/ folder? That is the only thing I could think of that is causing your problem.

It works fine for me so I changed a few maps to get all human NPCs on Power Armor, even Marcus was changed to look like Horrigan.
 
but if i remove the patch000.dat i cannot reload the game or use the vertibird patch right?

Wrong, you can reload and use other patches, you just need to make sure you extract all the files in the patch dat before you remove it, just make sure all the files are extracted to Fallout2/data/ folder then remove the dat file.
If you are running any other mods that use a modified Patch000.dat, follow the same procedure; just make sure you backup any files you moded in the data directory before you extract the dat or they will be overwritten.
