Don't mean to be obnoxious but is there a date I missed somewhere or it's "when it's done"? Anyway, keep up the good work killap!
 
What do you want to know?

hmm like at what point in the game your savegames crash?
its something random? or its at a fixed location?

btw, seriously no one knows if Miria Mod will be an option to install with the mod?

It's random. Sometimes at Den, sometimes at Modoc or the NCR. But I have to say that I save very very often.

intalled Patches and Mods:
  • Restoration Project 1.2
  • Fallout 2 High Resolution Patch v2.2a (from NMA. But I played a few months ago without this patch and I had the same problem)

OS:

Windows 7 Professional 32 Bit


I never had this problem with the "normal" version of the game, so it has to do something with the RP.
 
I have one problem : my savegames crash often too, but not "crash" crash, but more like the game becomes extremely slow when I save a lot. When I load it, it still remains slow and sometimes the loading takes forever, I left it to load and went to lunch, and when I came back it was still loading. Then, at one point, the game just went to hell with it, gave up and the savegames just went dead.

I'm playing with the RP 1.2 , so I wanted to know is it the RP thing or just a game thing, since I'm not the only one with savegame problems.

if memory dont fails me killap stated its "when its done" but it might come out this month as many people working on the mod are saying

(to Infektionsgefahr) hmm might be because of the blood patch and the german translation, other than that it might be your PC config, i dunno, i can play with the RP in Win7 normally, try to reintall Fallout last time my game kept crashing in the toilet explosion and reintall did the trick
 
Infektionsgefahr, installing any patches along with RP is usually a very bad idea. I'd say that if you have any problems, that's the reason.

Some mods are compatible with the RP. The high-res patch is one of them. But many aren't so just don't install those and you will be fine.

What about killap's patch? I bet it's OK to run in with RP?

No Killpas patch is already included in the RP. So no need to install it. In fact if you do you might mess things up.

If installed in that order it should be fine.
The bloodpatch is just some art that is missing from the censored versions of the game, and the German translation is just translated text files, nothing strange there. It's more likely to be your OS, I'd say.
Maybe some incompatibility issue with sfall or something?

It's very hard to say anything really since you don't say under what circumstances the game crashes. What did you do just before you save. For instance, never save in combat if you can avoid it.
 
Darek, i can assure you that win7 is not at fault here, i use Windows 7 Ultimate and didint had any issues with any fallout even without any patch at all (well, i had to use compatibility mode, so fallout 1 could stop saying i didint had enough memory).

Infektionsgefahr did you used any dinamite and left the map before it went off? thats the only thing i can remember besides the toilet thing

and really, i am asking if you EVER did the dinamite trick, because you might have corrupted a map file in another playthrought

You know, I always save during combat because I'm a huge cheater, but it's never given me any problems. I've replayed FO2 probably ten times. Guess I'm lucky.

No, do not apply ANY other patches\mods that aren't designed to work with RP (make sure to check readme for this info). If you play with RP 1.2, you can't install killap's unofficial patch or the official 1.2 patch, because it will mess up the game and make it unplayable.
 
Hello Mr. Wolna, the ugly flying critters you seem to be referring to are the ones ported from Fallout Tactics into the EPA, unfortunately this task wasn’t done as well as it could have been. Some of the artwork, (namely the edges) were lost during process. But this has been rectified with the new release of the Restoration Project 1.3. People need to be aware that results can never be perfect, though the ugly flying critters are as good as they will ever be. As to whether they will be found in RP 1.3, well that’s up to Killaps discretion.

To all those individuals waiting patiently for RP 1.3, it is well worth the wait believe me. I am the individual who contacted Killap out of the blue around September 2008 wanting to contribute something to the Restoration Project, that being the enhancement of the maps found in Fallout 2. I spent approximately 1000+ hours throughout 2009 laboring over this project of love, and have built close to 1000 new artworks, I am not trying to boast here, (but the new maps for Fallout 2 do look pretty good), but critically the scripting must all come together. There are many individuals working quietly away to complete this project, and you the community will also play a critical role in catching many of the bugs that inevitably slip through the net. As well there have also been fixes to basic errors left by the Black Isle team, some very subtle, others not so. I personally am waiting for the release of RP 1.3 eagerly so I can move straight into new work for RP 1.4.

Please when you finally get RP 1.3 don’t go looking at the maps in the game editor, or test screen. Grab a beer, turn off the lights and play the game as it should be one map at a time.

I only had the internet connect yesterday; otherwise I would have popped up earlier in the discussion.
Thanks
