Fallout 1 Modding Help!

This may have already been posted, but anyways...

Is there an editor for Fallout 1?
Something where you can add new cities, modify existing cities and all that mapping stuff?

Modding FO1 is such a great pain for modders, because you can't do many things you can easily do with FO2.

If you want ti edit/create maps, try to use mapper2.exe. It'll help

There is no map editor for Fallout around. You can edit maps either with Interplay's or Dims' mappers with some degree of a success. But both editors give issues when it comes to saving into Fallout 1 format. So currently the only sure way is gzip, hex-editor and tons of documentation. Maps of the Restoration Mod for Fallout 1 has been edited like this.

add new cities

Hardcoded in the engine. Debugger, disassembler and hex-editor. This applies to the quest in the PIPboy as well. Good luck.
