fallout hi-res patch

neuralll

First time out of the vault
Fallout Fans Let's celebrate. today I managed to start and PLAY fallout at native resolution 1600x1200 (only first map works for now). First screenshots are from res 1280x1024 since this is resolution of my LCD and is best for testing on my side. First screenshot is with original gui position so you can get idea what was visible before and what is now. But biggest plus I see in fact that what was pixelation before is a lot of detail now. Not all is working yet . Namely there is problem on entering new map (black screen) and videos are not scaled plus ingame videos just crash. but I am working on it. It would help if I got saves from every map. And for One map I need 5 saves with player at center and all corners. Pls notify me via icq if you wish to help before sending. thx
Gui still thinked it runs at 640x480

This sounds awfully familiar to me. The degree of commitment is nice though


edit: ooh, and the pictures didn't work for me.. also, please use some other format. BMP files rapes peoples bandwidth.

If so.please post link to that existing hi-res mod so I don't spend month reinventing wheel ;)

The word "yip" in my post above was in fact a link to the existing hi-res mod.
 
thx. looks like there really is working hi-res mod. That's nice since now i can focus on adding multiplayer to fallout. Since that was why I started hi-res mod at first place. Anyway thx for saving my time. And please. Let me know if there allready is Multiplayer mod .;))))

Yes there is already a multiplayer "mod" (though the term "mod" is quite wrong in this case) in production. I guess you should try to post at the teamx forums and see if you find the guy who works on it there. I know that it was a teamx member but I forgot the name :-(

thx for info. They released only videos thou. I think that I will roll my own MP version anyway since programming Fallout is fun.

Um I wouldn't say it's totally working, try it out, 800x600 is the only resolution that is playable, and the talking heads and other things are still messed up. What I'm trying to say is please finish it! :D
 
The only part that's unplayable is the haunted farm on any resolution above 640x480. This has all been discussed more than a year ago. Doesn't look like any progress has been made.

I'm replaying FO2 right now at 1024x768 and reverted back to 640x480 just for that one spot.
 
Last time I tried it the talking heads were all out of wack while at anything higher then 640x480
