I want to delete all the modified ammo prototypes from Celestial's patch, so I used the mapper to find the prototype numbers for all the ammo and then I'll delete all the matching-numbered PRO files. But first I want to make sure: is the number the mapper gives the exact same number on the item's PRO file, or is there an offset?
Any offset between mapper number and filename number?

Yes the number corresponds to the prototype ID.
If you look in your mapper2 directory ....
mapper2\scripts\headers\itempid.h
You see a list of items with their PID numbers.
If you load up FIC and go to options, set the tool to point to your fallout2 locations, like this:
msg files -> master.dat\text\english\game
items.lst -> master.dat\proto\items
inven.lst -> master.dat\art\inven
critters.lst -> master.dat\proto critters
(assuming you extracted master.dat)
You can check that the PIDs do match.
FIC shows item 94 as a shotgun, which matches the itempid.h number in the mapper directory.
So there doesn't seem to be an offset, but what people do in their mods, who knows?
