Sorry for being so late in posting a response to this. I had always wanted to reply, but my MBA program has kept me very busy for the past month and a half, and it kinda slipped my mind.... Anyway, I think you missed my point. My original case for giving the Sniper Rifle (and possibly the...

Some more bugs: 1) I'm not sure if you can do anything or not, as this seems like an engine bug, but here goes: When you look at some creatures with the Awareness perk, it states something like "It has 10/10 hps" (Small RadScorpions). However, without the perk, it will say: "He looks...

Well, there's no confirmation in the Fallout Bible that I know. Why I made the guesses that I did is due to some dialog from Joey, Lara, and Tyler. The relevant line from Joey's dialog is 350 (or 351, if Lara died in the gang war). He says this in lieu of line 222 if Lara has successfully...

Actually, the logic does exist in the game, and it is a bug that you fight all of Tyler's gang except for Tyler himself. I should know, because I was the one who originally told Seraph how to fix this bug. :D In fact, fixing this bug was what inspired me to come up with the unofficial update...

I see that some people have talked about the shopkeeper inventory purging issue. Since I was the one who originally brought it up, I feel I should add my two cents. Here's the link to the original posts where killap and me talked about it. I'll let them speak for themselves...

Great job, killap! The rest of the Fallout community certainly owes you a big one for all your hard work. :D Just a quick comment to those of you using the manual installer: make sure everything under the data folder is set to read-only after you've extracted the stuff -- I've noticed that...

Got a quick question for killap, but thought the rest of you might be interested in his answer as well: Is your quick fix for the tanker fuel problem currently in your latest June 11th patch? If yes, was this fix uploaded to NMA? -- The Haen.

The Friendly Klint 2 Mod is available for download on this site. Basically, it turns Klint into a somewhat versatile NPC that can join you in your party. As for making this mod work with killap's latest patch, only minor work needs to be done. Klint himself was not modified, so you can...

Ok, I see your point about the slavers, and I agree with it. Good call. As for appropriate conditions, that'd be a bit tougher. I think you'll need new global variables to keep track of the populations of each of the town or base (using the reserved GVARs come to mind, or making new GVAR...

Found another possible issue (I hesitate to call it a "bug"). If not included in the patch, then maybe at least it's a possibility in the upcoming unofficial expansion pack. When you destroy Vault City (i.e. run in and slaughter all its inhabitants), you can still run into Vault City patrols...

Hmmm...good point. Off the top of my head, I don't think there is a variable that keeps track of the population of Gecko, which is why I did not put it in my list of conditions (all the rest of the conditions I mentioned have a variable of some sort keeping track of stuff). That being said...

Well, one possible way to deal with this is to totally rewrite the part in Horrigan's script where it assigns the end movies, and treat the Gecko and Vault City endings as only ONE ending with one or two cutscenes being played at the end depending on city/quest status. Looking at all possible...

I thought about that too way back when I was planning my own little patch. I have two separate trains of thougt about this. 1) The player simply just screwed themselves over. Critical game components in Fallout 2 are usually clearly marked/labelled/emphasized/etc. as such, and if they decided...

In terms of gameplay, I think why the developers placed the Jet Antidote with the Tanker Vagrants is for balance purposes in the event that the player accidentally turned Vault City hostile or got himself/herself banned from Vault City (and we all know how easy it is to piss off the First...

I respectfully disagree with this assessment. Dr. Troy is presumably not the only group looking for a cure for Jet, since it is so prevalent and devastating in the Fallout 2 universe. What's more, Dr. Troy's own research is severely hampered by the fact that the Vault City Council would not...

I don't know if that'd be the best way to go about it. Of course, killap has final say, but this would be my suggestion: 1) For the upcoming expansion/add-on pack, implement the Vertibird-to-Oil-Rig scenario. Off the top of my head, I believe there is already a .msg file written for this...

Killing everyone shouldn't prevent you from finishing the game, assuming that's the first thing you do after you set foot in San Francisco -- you can always use the chemistry terminal in the Shi base. Having said that, I don't know if you need to have the Fuel the Tanker quest active before...

Hey killap, Great job on this latest patch! :) Now that this "final" patch is out, will you be finally releasing your source SSL files as well? :D -- The Haen.

Hey Per, I can give a brief answer to both questions, but you're right. Let's take this to PMs and stop turning this thread into English Grammar 101. :lol: Sorry, killap, for the thread hijack, and I apologize to others as well. Per, if you feel it's necessary, maybe you can clean up the...

Haenlomal puts on his English tutor hat.... Good call there, Per. You are correct in this particular instance. As a general rule of thumb, if you are quoting the exact name of something, only the name itself should be enclosed in quotes, unless the punctuation itself is part of the quote...
