Fallout 2: Power Fists vs Bare Fists ?

Yes. Mega Power Fist is much better than just using bare fists.

Edit: In fact, it's the best unarmed weapon in the game.
 
The Mega Power Fist does 0 damage to Frank Horrigan, every time.

Bare Fists does 0 damage to frank horrigan, every time.

Any suggestions? I'm 1 Intelligence and thereby cant use the presidential pass to use the turrents against him.
 
I thought his thing's a patch? I have the necessary prerequisite patches for his patch/mod installed.

Yeah I just looked, he calls it the unofficial fo2 patch.


I'll try that game-editing stuff suggested in the thread when I have the time.
 
Since killap's patch is preinstalled on any reasonably recent fallout cd, doesn't it count as semi-officially vanilla now? The technical help forum is going to get very quiet if you block anyone using killaps patch from using it. :P

Anyway, another guess as to the problem is that you also have sfall installed, with the damage formula mod turned on, which does tend to make Horrigan pretty much immortal. (Which would mean that yes, it's a mod problem after all.) If you have a ddraw.ini in your fallout folder, look for a line that starts with 'DamageFormula=' and make sure it's set to 0.
 
I use Windows Vista

There is a ddraw.inf file, but there is no ini file of the name

the ddraw.inf file does not have anything close to damage inside it.

is it because im using Vista? am I screwed? is there an easy way to make my character invincible or something like that, so that I can just kill this guy (the turrets hit him regularly for 10-20 dmg a shot, even though they aim at me) and get my ending?
 
You sure? I use Vista, have Killap's patch and I have the ddraw.ini file.
 
k my retarded ass found it.

it's already set to 0

maybe ill just load from an earlier game and thereby disable the horrigan encounter altogether,since there's an option to change that.


hope this works

IT DIDNT WORK.

OK forget it all, I just want to see the ending cinematic. How do I do this?
 
He is 100% invincible to anything I do to him. The Holy Hand Grenade did 0 damage, dynamite does 0 damage.

I thought i could just let the gun turrets do all the damage to him, since they spray him better than they do me, but they ran out of ammo eventually.
 
I had the same problem, but I killed him with ~220% unarmed + mega power fist (yes, little by little with ~5-10 dmg). Gauss rifle always did 0 dmg to FH, and Marcus with a yk85whatever rifle (the one I found in the BOS base) hited him with a ~50 dmg every time, but then I used that weapon (with a energy weapons %200) - I did no dmg at all (the same thing with a Gauss rifle).

Solution: take a lot of stimps and beat him to death with a 5-10dmg from a mega power fist :).

P.S. Sorry for bad english.
 
I got 14 free skill points, but that would only raise my unarmed to like 165%, from the 157 it is now.

My Mega Power Fist, targeted or untargeted, does 0 damage EVERY time. ZERO DAMAGE, critical or not. I can cripple his legs so he can only walk about 2 squares per turn, but eventually the turrets run out of ammo and there is nothing in the entire room that can hurt him (i have 5% Speech so I can't ask Sgt Rock's crew to help)
 
Edit your melee damage to 999. :mrgreen: Then test it on the junkies in the Den and the ghouls in Gecko. It takes surprisingly much effort to dull the effect at least for me; only when I'd slided half the population of New Reno across several screens each, leaving their major organs strewn along the way, did it occur to me that maybe I could do something more productive with my time. Well, technically I was producing corpses, but whatever. :P
