    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    Historically, Killap has done both. He's posted to the old thread with a pointer to a new thread and locked it down, and then posted the full changelog and feature list in the new thread.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    Any updated ETA on the 2.2 release? Awhile ago, you said that the open beta would be closed on the 19th and 2.2 would come out shortly after that. I'm not trying to pressure you to commit to a date, I'm just curious what the current plan is. :)

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    You might consider adding "(or C:\Program Files (x86))" to the text, since many people may not realize that they're functionally the same directory, but that 64-bit versions of Windows split them up to separate 64-bit and 32-bit programs. I'm not even sure 64-bit versions of Windows will allow...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    Fortyseven, I'm afraid this is a problem with the installer (the user), not the installer (the app). :) "C:\Program Files (x86)" is the 64-bit Windows version of "C:\Program Files" for 32-bit apps. Both directories are functionally equivalent, and both are going to have the same problem in the...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    I've never had Steam install games to Program Files, and I don't remember what the default was. My copy of Fallout 2 isn't from Steam, either (my current copy is from the "Dual Jewel" 2-CD FO/FO2 pack that was in stores about a decade ago). However, this is easy to solve. When you click...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.2 - OPEN BETA (ie NOT FINAL)

    This is the best news I've heard all year! Okay, the year's only five days old, but I've been waiting for this for a long time, and I'm really excited to be replaying Fallout 2 again with so much content restored. Thanks so much for all of your hard work Killap, Pixote, Mash, Timeslip, Darek...

    Hi-Res Patches for Fallout1&2 & the BIS Mapper

    Perhaps more importantly, a new version of the Restoration project is due out soon (how soon? Who knows), and when it's released, it'll include the then-latest version of the high-res patch. Personally, I'd wait on playing the RP until the new version comes out. Lots of bugs have been fixed...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    You could always take a break and then switch to modding Wasteland 2 when its editor comes out (the funding period broke the $3M barrier at which they promised an editor). You could even make a FO2RP total conversion using the newer engine. :D

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    As the old engineering maxim goes, perfect is the enemy of good enough. :) I look forward to replaying Fallout 2 whenever you do finish the next release, Killap. However long that takes, I've got plenty of unplayed games to keep me occupied until then.

    Which mods/patches for Fallout 1&2?

    Should this thread be "un-stickied" and replaced with a new thread? It appears that whoever created the thread no longer has an account on the forum, and nearly all of the links in the first post are dead. Given that the purpose of making this thread a sticky post is to make it convenient for...

    Hi-Res Patches for Fallout1&2 & the BIS Mapper

    Wow, that's a lot of new features! One question - will the feature above only go on PC LOS, or will it also go on NPC LOS? Given that the game is party-based, it seems like it might make sense to include NPC LOS, but given that you only control the main character (though I think one of the...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Are you forgetting the whole Fallout visual motif?? The whole game world's look and feel is based on the 1950's era ideas of what a nuclear fallout would be (which is very, very different from reality). Pretty much everything in the Fallout games is retro-futuristic, based on 1950's ideals...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Any bugs you find should be entered here: http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/Restoration_Project_bug_reports This way, Killap doesn't have to sort through umpteen pages of forum posts to find them, and can easily track their progress. IIRC, you do not need an account to edit this page.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    The simplest solution is actually to install the RP. Fallout 2 (or Fallout 1 for that matter) isn't especially compatible with Windows 7, but sfall (and/or Mash's high-res patch) makes it much more compatible with Windows 7. Both are included in Killap's Restoration Project.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Re: Vic won't fight I'll take his knife away from him or change his distance. I equipped him with a shotgun, but he kept switching back to the knife, even though he's told to favor ranged fighting. I don't remember this being the case in "vanilla" FO2, but it's been a number of years since...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Vic won't fight Vic ran away from a fight awhile ago because he was injured. He hasn't attacked a single enemy since them, making him useless as anything other than a pack rat. Savegame link (7-zip format) From the quick save above, go down into the outhouse and fight the big rat. Sulik...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Kaga too hard? No way! All this discussion on how hard Kaga is has me baffled. I finally got around to starting a game with the new RP, and ran into him outside of Klamath as a level 4 player with almost 20 unallocated skill points (hoarding them for when I'd need them). Sulik and I killed one...

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Thanks Darek! One note. The file is "f2rp_wt.htm" but the internal section links are to <a href="F2RP_WT.htm#den"> Since URLs (beyond the domain name) are case sensitive, this results in a 404 error. A better solution would be to change those to: <a href="#den"> (and #klamath, and so...

    RP Walkthrough? I know it hadn't been updated with the last major update, but is the RP walkthrough being hosted anywhere? The numerometria.com domain for the one listed on page 1 of this thread doesn't seem to exist.

    Fallout 2 Restoration Project 2.1.2b (Unofficial Expansion)

    Is there any chance that you might put some drop-in post-fixes on the front page of this thread, like you have for prior versions? According to the wiki, an awful lot of the bugs are already fixed, but the fixes aren't available to the unwashed masses, and it seems a shame to have to wait 2...
