    You could try setting the process affinity to 1 through the task manager.

    Yeah, the default 100 really is slow. I remember how agonizing it got in my initial playthrough years ago. Since 110 was too fast for me, I found a nice compromise was 105 or 106. I also reinstalled Fixt and went to custom and untoggled NPC Speed-up, so now the children aren't suffering from ADHD. Definitely understand about looking for the ideal setting for the majority of players.

    Noob here with 2 questions: (sorry, 161 pages is a LOT to go through)

    1: I've purchased the European Fallout Anthology and the discs have the German FSK 18 rating on them.
    However, when I inserted the Fallout 1 disc to install, it switched over to Steam so I now have the Steam version. Would this be the German version and do I need the German Uncut patch?

    2: Since you can't prevent Steam from updating the games, do these patches hold? I remember losing several Half -Life 2 patches in the past because Steam was overwriting files.

    Soo...I'm hoping these forums are still read and moderately active. I have recently purchased FO1 through Steam. I have tried individually installing the patches and updates as well as using FIXT. With both methods I have been unsuccessful at using the NPC mod. PLEASE HALP!

    @Nisei if you want the uncut version, yes, you need uncut. Not sure if steam version is German. Probably steam will overwrite files as well, although why would they release patches to Fallout? Just use GOG, man.

    @ Duncan you'll have to be more specific.

    Okay, I have a question. I've looked around but couldn't really find any answers via Google...

    Fallout 1 (and possible 2, haven't played it in forever) has this really annoying problem with any type of container in your inventory. It can't "see" what's in it, such as ammo, and therefore won't reload your guns unless you do so manually. I do not recall seeing an option related to it during the Fixt customization, so I was curious if there's any possibility of it being addressed.

    If at all possible, that is. I'm not gonna chew someone's head off cause it isn't, would just be nice to be able to keep all my ammo in say, a backpack, since I tend to carry a lot of it.

    Cool idea. If anyone could do this it's probably @Crafty

    Thanks burn. So, if I'm not sure I have the cut version, will it hurt if you apply the German Uncut patch to the uncut version? I guess not since all it would do is overwrite files which are already there but I'm asking anyway just to make sure.

    It has been awhile since I last updated Fallout FIXT. Is .81 Alpha supposed to install in a separate folder inside the Fallout folder? If it helps any this is being installed on my old GOG copy what gog currently calls "Fallout Classic".

    I apologize if this issue has already been reported, but I have the latest patch and I chose "Partial" new content option. The bookstore merchant in the hub has not restocked the skill books even after a week's time has passed. Is there a fix for this?

    Mouse became laggy after install. What kind of a fix is that ? Using Windows 10.

    Not enough analog RP but for F1.
    Lots of quests and characters removed from the final version.

    Settings in f1_res.ini and ddraw.ini should fix this, specififcally look for the mouse and keyboard and speed settings. Maybe all try changing graphics mode (DD/DX/etc). Let me know which on e works for you!


    Could you be more specific what you mean by analog RP?

    Sduibek, did you already read my e‐mail concerning the Colt .45? It’s cut content that’d be quite facile to implement.

    So is there any chance of this working on the OSX GOG version, or is that a no-go?

    Good news everyone, I have to finish my class by December 4th so I should be able to get back to work on this some time in December.



    If you mean an actual email then no; I haven't checked falloutfixt @ gmail.com in a few months. I'll look at it soon.

    Unfortunately you'd have to run it in Wine or similar virtual environment. Some of the coolest functions are using ddraw and DirectX functions with the Sfall plugin which is Windows-only.

    I've heard it suggested that you could set everything up in Windows, then move the whole thing to the Mac. Would that work, or are the necessary plugins actively required?

    Feel free to try, and let us know if it works, but the plugins are pretty important.

    Has anyone gotten the Instruction at (random hex memory address) referenced memory location (another random hex memory address) error on Windows 10? It appears to be an issue with sfall, since renaming ddraw.dll seems to eliminate the issue. I'm running fixes only and have gotten this from travelling across the map (particularly the random encounter with the Maltese cross icon) and also have gotten it in combat (mother deathclaw and the battle between the blades and the rest of the boneyard once they got geared up by the gun runners).
