F2 Save Games got corrupted just so that I cant char edit

P

Paladinj

First time out of the vault
I can play the game fine, but I can't use it in item or character

editors.

They say the inventory data/character information got corrupted.

I modded the game slightly to make poison deadly as a modding

challenge.:twisted: and I item edited so that I have 99x poison,

that's all I did except play the game normally. :D

Could anybody help me get my save games to work in the editors? :oops:

Thanks guys! :clap: :D
 
In fact I have tried but it did not help, I am such a bad player,I can't even defeat the super mutants at military base! Don't know what I did wrong maybe many little mistakes... Its my first time so what can I expect right?Thanks for the help!
 
Would you happen to be using the sfall mod?
The same thing happened to me after I updated sfall from 1.30 to the newest version (1.35c).
Fallout 2 started corrupting my saves so that when I leveled up I couldn't increase any stats at all.
It also prevented Falche2 from working with the error message you got.
After downgrading to 1.30, I loaded the broken save and saved it again, and it started working again.. strange.
 
sfall doesn't (or at the least, shouldn't) modify the save files unless you use the ExtraKillTypes option. It does add its own save file to the folder, but falche will ignore it. Are you using any other mods? Anything that adds global variables will confuse falche, because offsets in the save file wont be where it expects them to be.

That was fixed in 1.35b. If you're still getting it with 1.35c then somethings probably gone wrong with your install...

I'm using Restoration Project 1.2 and the High Resolution Patch 1.6.

Ah, that must be it... it seems I don't have 1.35c after all, but 1.35.
I thought I had downloaded the newest one.. oh well. :?
Thanks for the help!

yup, falche2 can't open saves made with the restoration project. Falche1 might be able to, (I haven't tried it with 1.2, but it used to work) but some fields will display garbage and attempting to change them will break the save game. Just change the ones that you know are correct.
 
I am the one that asked the question not Tabi,

I am using no mod except a small 1 that I made to make stimpaks do more over time damage :twisted:
 
I undid my mod to make super stim packs normal. I also changed my

weight capacity to 1000 but 999 is the game max, I did this way

before the problem started what other reasons can cause this please

help me?

I know, but if sfall was breaking save games then I would have wanted to know about it. :P

I have no idea why they won't work for you. Simply modifing an item .pro shouldn't cause falche any problems...
 
Timeslip wrote this but i could figure out how to make it look like the way it should (yup, falche2 can't open saves made with the restoration project. )

This is incorrect. I have 1.2 RP and I can edit files. As far as the saved game goes. I would start a new one and edit it from the begining if you havent tried it so far.

Also Paladinj if you havent played through the game without cheats or mods as everyone calls them here atleast once, it takes the fun out of it. Try playing through once if you havent then go modding away. Thats what I did atleast

Really? I'm probably getting it confused with the megamod then... In any case, I know the 'character data (main1) not found' error is generally caused by mods, and can be avoided by using falche 1. I'm sure search will turn up something more useful if you search for that error.

Edit: Looks like megamod causes it reliably, and the unofficial patch/restoration project only for some people.
 
Who knows? The only problem I have had is that it sometimes dumps the memory and closes the game down. I make sure to save often now.. lol. Megamod for me had a lot of bugs espically in the temple of trials. The dialogue at the end was reversed, meaning i was the tribal and vise versa. I went to talk again and all i got was error for talking options. I thought it was funny.
 
I agree with BarbedBubble about playing through at least once without mods or hacked characters. Also, the game is very non-linear: if the mutants are too tough for you right now, go do things somewhere else, gain a few levels and get bigger guns.
 
you're right, I already got avenger mini gun 800 bullets $20k laser rifle, what more do I need to get? :oops:

I think maybe power armor, but the only place I can get that is the military base. Also I don't have any party members. Where should I go? Also could you please try and help me debug my saves?
 
I tried FALCHE and it shows my charecter lvl 0, it got all of my skills/tagged skills wrong and I am afraid to use it lol.
is there any way to fix the source of the corruption?
