Found some errors

first i really like the new quests!!! great job
but in the primitive tribe the missing hunter quest doesn't get crossed out and the hunter is lying in the wall of the cave
got a save for that

also the slaves wont leave their pens after i open the door at the slaver camp with suliks sister
got a save for that one aswell

are there a lot of slave camps?
and how can i free all the slaves across the wasteland? or is that asking for a walkthrough ;o)

please give me your e-mail i'll send the saves

It sounds like your ddraw.ddl (or sfall.dll) is not working. What OS are you running and what does your main menu say?

I'm running XP(been working flawlessly before 1.1). :p
My main menu says...uh..nothing out of the ordinary? o_O
I could try reinstalling the entire thing again, who knows.. :-p

Then your Expansion installation has failed. I believe it's mentioned pretty much everywhere that the main menu should say "Expansion 1.0.22.x" or something in the lower right corner after a successful installation. Here's how:

1. Install humongous to new folder
2. Install Expansion (in same folder)

(Or, just read the first post in this thread, which has more detailed information)
 
Hi,
I started playing Fallout2 again when I saw the game CD in a corner and realized I never actually finished the game. Coincidently, that was just about the same day the Restoration Mod got released XD
The bad thing though was, it kept crashing at every oportunity especially when returning to sharpen your Spear and at other opportunities.

When I finished the game about 40% using just the regular 1.2 patch for the german version, I went to some forums to read about a bug and stumbled about the solution of having to rename the english folder to german.
---> game is running fine and without ANY crashes now.
It was really WORTH the trouble of starting a game all over again, a really great mod you did here Killap.
I made myself a gmx account to become able to register in these forum just to be able to say my thanks to Killap and try to contribute at least a bit to improve the mod quality.


Now for some minor bugs I encountered:

-talking to the Buckner daughter about the Brahmin mutiliations makes here give an 'error' aswer where you can also choose between ending the dialogue or giving two different 'error' replies.
I just figured one of them would be accepting the questthread and the other going back a level. Still a minor cosmetic issue.

-the gun I usualy find in the trapper town sewers goes on the second level disappears after leaving and reentering the sewers. Thats at least what I read in this thread, but I still consider it a bug since I do not feel it was intentional in the game and quiet a bit inconvenient.

-saving and loading the first encouner with Kaga, results in his position reseting about 5 fields east of you and aborting the fight.
The dialogue script restarts and the fight doesnt continue until he finishes his speech. I saw an opportunity to steal his 1000$ and his super stimpack that way. I mean most surely do not want to cheat and a reward if being able to kill him at that stage of the game looks nice, but it's still an issue.(Fixing such an issue would require a saving-function redesign I guess which is not that easy to implement I presume)

-I might add a lot more bugs soon, but I forgot about the most and didnt write them down : (

regards, Skel

Be sure to grab the flint fix from the first page.

Also, saving a loading while in combat (or kaga's encounters for that matter) is never a good idea. There is no way I can really fix the problems with saving while in combat, but I'll see what I can do about the kaga encounters.
 
... I don't think it has been said=> a bug with the car in special encouter. I can no longer park my car in a special encounter... I men, I can't leave it there.
 
Empty kaga encouter

also got the empty kaga encounter
after the fight he leaves en when i travel along i get an empty encounter made a save of it if you need it
i think you must be on top of it already
really appreciate your effort Killap!!!

Special Encounters are not like other maps or encounters. Leaving the car there was never possible.
 
I found a possible bug with the slaver camp/NCR Rangers. I killed all the slavers long before getting to NCR. Talked to the Rangers, they said thanks for killing them, etc, got the exp points, then took their quest to free the slaves outside NCR. Did that, then Elise asks me if I want to be a Ranger, I say yes, but there's still an option to tell her about the slaver camp, which has already been wiped out. You can even request other Rangers to come along, and you're transported to the camp with a bunch of pools of blood. Does this mean you have to free the slaves to complete the quest, or is it a bug? (I never released them because of my problems with Sulik's sister and entering Primitive Tribe.)

Oh, another problem: After doing the Broken Hills skimming quest and getting Chad taken care of (he's gone from the caravan office) when you do a caravan, Chad returns as the caravan leader during the trip...
 
I fixed the problem, for now at least. :p
Installed the game manually(a few times) before it decided to fix itself.
Oh well... ._.' Confused..

In my situation I have killed all slavers and release all slaves before my travel into NCR but Elise still want to clean that camp, but nobody there already. So I can't take any other quests from Elise. I had go to this "dead" camp and return to NCR but I can;t say about it to Elise and she still want to beat that camp. So I don't know what to do with this "brush" of quests.

Several reports indicate this is definitely a bug. I'll look into it.
 
Jeeze, with this mod I get encounters almost every half-second. Seriously, it's every pixel I move that I get into another random encounter.


My friend's having the same troubles, too, and he says that maxed Outdoors man doesn't make it any better.


Is there a file we can edit to lower the probability of getting raped?
 
And I have travelled across all the map but I have find only "Abbey" location + "Slavers camp" location I had get after quests from The Den. So nothing new...

And there are so much encounters - 2-3 for each square - I haven't much bullets for travel between The Den and Modoc. And so I had use "WorldMapEncounterFix" option to fix this.

And (may be not bug) I have killed Skeeter for car part but quest "get super repair toolkit for Skeeter" still in my Pip-Boy.
 
this may have been mentioned, but:

i go to vault village, for the extermination quest.
i tell them that sorry, i'll get guns.
i go back to vault city.
then the guy in the bar tells a better, peaceful solution.
i talk to the councilor, he says that he supports the 'sheriff'.
i talk to the 'sheriff' guy, and i refuse to help in makin them servants, and he says that he sends an assault force immedietly.
i go back to the village, and i can tell them that i talked with the councilor about leaving them independent...this is quite weird, since the guy didnt tell me that they'll leave them alone...only that he does not know about the servant thing.
and the assault force is nowhere either...:/
 
I've found an issue with Bess in Modoc.
Apparently, if you heal using a doctors bag, she never gets up, and you never get the xp for healing her. You cannot heal her using doctors after that, so she's just there, lying on the ground, and there is nothing you can do about it (well maybe just reload and heal her without the doctor's bag).
 
got crashes when entering the map northwest of Klamath.
after throughout testing and retrying different orders of quests I could not specify any circumstancial conditions about what causes the crashes.

Here is roughly how I did it:

-refuel the still/kill rat god (not sure which order I did theese in)

-accept quest to find the Brahmin Mutiliators(I just presumed it was the upper one of the two error replies you could give to Mrs Buckner, the quest appeared in the log after that)

-rescue Smiley

(saved game)
-Duntons refused to offer job during 'guard brahmin' quest (because town reputation too high?).
(loaded saved game)

-bet first Dunton with arm wrestling after multiple tries->refused to offer job

-bet second Dunton in arm wrestling after multiple tries->got offered the job to scare away Thor.

-picked up the scorpion pincers and told Thor to run and get help(massive town reputation colapse)

-rejected any reward from the Duntons

-got offered quest to find Thor by his mother and got offered quest to find Thor by his sister(no dialogue option to show pincers or complete 'find brahmin mutiliators' quest.

-went east to the Vertibird Crash site

-game crashed with an application error when loading the new map.

thats how it happened. I dont know exactly how the game engine works, so analysis is a bit difficult for me, but I'll try to update this post in case I figure out something more specific.

regards, Skel



-UPDATE-

I just loaded a savegame prior to entering Klamath.
I traveled to Clamath and went directly to the crash site resulting in an application error.
So I finaly realized the crash had nothing to to with the quests, but I made so much effort of writing the stuff here that I'm too unwilling to just delete it again ^^
 
Folks,

Enlighten me, how does Fallout 2 Restoration Project relates to the MIB88 Megamod, recently released?
