    New findings. This crash will actually occur with ddraw.dll renamed, but the call stack is different.
    err-4-no-ddraw.PNG

    EDIT: It crashes with f1_res.dll renamed as well, but I can't get a call stack from it. I'm thinking I may have a corrupt save.

    EDIT 2: Full re-install of Fallout and FIXT crashes with my saved games when I hit the random maltese cross encounter.

    EDIT 3: Saved games are here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_vH2oCiYgUNUTFlaF9jWnF5Mk0/view?usp=sharing

    SLOT04 Xplorin is what I've been using to re-create the bug. Just travel back and forth from the hub to the top-left corner of the map until you get the maltese cross encounter. I run from the other encounters. The game always crashes when the maltese cross encounter happens.

    EDIT 4: I was able to finish the game. I'll be starting another playthrough with Fixt 0.81a (possibly with Wine under Linux). Hopefully, the new playthrough won't have the crashing problem

    If all goes according to plan, I'll be able to get back to work on this December 5th.

    I'm also holding myself to my previously discussed schedule, so no matter what happens, I'll be releasing something on or before January 5th (six months since last release)

    After killing all regulators (alone or with he help of Blades) nothing happens. Blades are standing still and you cant talk to them. Dialog with blades is stuck on the part where they ask me if i am going to help with an attack on regulators. But nothing happen, i appear in Adytum with them all standing still in same posotions they were after we kill the last regulator. Or i moved there alone without anyone if i already killed regulators. Can do this forever.

    Okay it looks like maybe I won't be able to start working on this until roughly Christmas time, BUT, I just got brought on full-time (instead of contractor in probationary period) at my job that I got in October after moving to Los Angeles, so I'm no longer in panic mode, worried about whether I'll be staying with the company.

    This means I can do more than sleep & work & fret, which is good news for the near-future of Fixt :)

    I just found a pretty serious grammatical error with the description of the leather armor when you right click on it.

    grammar leather armor.jpg

    Also when you kill Killian with Gizmo and you return back to Gizmo's casino after already killing Gizmo with Killian, you'll find another Killian walking out of Gizmo's casino and you can talk to him and tell him you got the evidence and use it to exploit him for more items. Also if you decide to kill Killian it's impossible to get to gizmo because Izo is glitched and will block the door making it impossible to get in! On top of that when you fight Gizmo Izo just stands at the back of the casino instead of being in the room with Gizmo and attacking you like he normally is supposed to. Izo also doesn't show the text where he does the throat cutting gesture if you go to Gizmo and decide to work for him and kill Killian.

    Thanks for this project. One question. Will you release new version until New Year?

    Thank you for your fix, Sdulbek. I didn't see your post to me twenty pages back until now. I'll have another go once I'm back in front of a Windows PC :)

    Any chance of an OS X-version compatible version in the future?

    @coldroll @darkpilot @Neptoess @TopQuark @Romanophile @cool_recep @reryan @KaelemGaen @Hiroshi Mishima @Duncan Atreides @AnotherLife @Nisei

    ^ Everyone please remember to report bugs at the Bugs Wiki ( http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/Fallout_Fixt_bug_reports ). It's better to report bugs there for a variety of reasons. Thank you! I appreciate it.

    @Nisei Good question about Steam, I think it should be OK because Fixt installs to a subfolder.

    Thank you :) It is many many hours of work, probably 1 to 2 thousand at this point, but it's worth it.

    Jan 5th is my goal. It will be a small release... a fixed version of the Restored Endings Add-On (standalone) as well as implementation of in-game customizations. And some customizations in the installer that I forgot to implement. Finally, I'll check if there's new versions of f1_res (doubtful) and ddraw (definitely) so whatever Crafty has added to ddraw in the past 6 months will be included.

    If I have the time, I'll try to fix some of the more significant bugs (crashes and such) but I may not have time.

    Cool cool, and thank you! Regarding Mac/OSX, unfortunately no, because Sfall/ddraw is very important and it is Windows-only. I apologize.

    Hey Sduibek, if you're still working on this project is there any chance your mod can run with the updated steam edition?

    Hey Sduibek instead of feeling bad for whatever reason you came up with (eg. not fulfilling deadlines you made for yourself by yourself).
    Don't feel bad about it, just tell us what's going on. Lack of new version is not bad news, lack of any news usually means bad news. ;)

    He was here just recently, saying he would release his new version on the already passed Sunday/Monday. He deleted it though, along with my comment on it.

    yeah that is why i'm worried for the well beeing of the project...

    on a side note I've decided to power level on the deathclaws up to lvl 99 wich was recently unlocked by Crafty's v1.19 sfall.
    Curently i'm at 46lvl and already I've chew through majority of my micro fusion cells (bought from the gunrunners, some from glow and rest from pickpocketing brotherhood paladins and looting their armory) still got like 1100 left back in hub but given the fact it's usually 2-3 shots to kill one deathclaw (i'm playin' with fast shot triat so no eye shots) i'll soon have to switch to a plasma pistol or .223 pistol to go any further besides it's like a 1lvl per 1day from now on, so the invasion timer is gonna take hit a bit. not sure if it's even possible without picking the 48000 or so days to the insta endgame+invasions.. i estimate I'd need at least 150 days to get to 99lvl just by exping on deathclaws maybe it's a good time to have an optional 5000 exp per deathclaw instead of 1000 in the FIXT installer, to save a bit on the ammo and timer. I've calculated i'll need between 10000 and 15000 shots fiered total to reach lvl 99 not sure i have enaugh of good ammo (MFC+SEC+.223) maybe i'll need to grab a minigun and have a go on 5mm ammo i've got a lot of this one, and no use for it, but i guess that would be it, because 10mm smg and combat shotgun are just too weak. Not sure about 14mm pistol, it should pack quite a punch too since the caliber is way larger than .223. the .223 is roughly more or less an equivalent of 5.56mm caliber though the 5.56mm is seposedly messy when it hits the target as it tumbles within the flesh so maybe that's why .223 ammo gets so much damage in game. Good penertation and tremendeus internal wounds = high in game damage i guess
    What do you guys think? is it worth it to reach lvl99? Or is it only yet another wierdo like playing dumb or pacifis char?
