Fallout Tactics mod Fallout Tactics: Lost In The Wastelands Campaign

Dunno what is in the mod, but this version is in Drobovic Database :
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ooj7kh3yf42m9sp/FOT-Lost_In_Wastelands_v1.2_by_noisist.exe/file

And there are other mods there :

Wow I will need to look at all this stuff. Had no idea all this was there! Thank you for replying!!

 

Also, noisist link from 4th september 2013 on this thread might work. (there is a countdown)

 

Oh my my, this is a real gold mine... I'll dig into that! I don't remember how many many files I just downloaded, all is there!

 

If you are looking for more mods, beside drobovik database, this section, and the nma download section, there are also the archive of the old nma download section (you have to replace "www" by "archive" in order to make some old links work) and the mod wiki by dude101. There might be stuff at Duck and cover, but it is a bit hard to navigate in it.

When i am done with this guide, (probably by the end of the year) i intend to do the same for Tactics Mods, so i guess we will exchange more informations in the future.

I had this bug occur on multiple attempts at the final battle as well. Like Snikers I was able to complete the mission despite having my BoS brethren shooting me in the back for no good reason. I surmised that for whatever reason, the BoS troops were turning on my team when hit by any friendly fire whatsoever - even when they hit EACH OTHER and my squad was not involved.

I found a way to prevent this, however. By lining my squad up at the left or right edge of the map, I convinced the muties to move toward me, instead of down to the camp. This practically prevented the BoS troops from firing at all, and when they did, they never had sharp lines of fire that put each other in harm's way. I think I killed every single one of the mutants myself (well, me Bruno and Den - Den is awesome with a rocket launcher if you build up his HW) except for one that a BoS trooper direct hit with a rocket launcher from a mile away. Anyways, using this tactic I was able to defeat the attack without the other base defenders turning on me.

 

As far as we know: The brotherhood will attack you if the mutants destroy the generator.
1. Mining the field.
2. The stand on the front line, not far from the boulder.
3. We are fighting (no one is hitting in the back, we are all together taking down mutants).

Has anyone completed quests for Martinez?

 

I am sure I've been turned on by the Brotherhood when the generator was not harmed. As I said, I suspect they blame me for their own friendly fire.

As for Martinez, I've wondered about him having quests but in my experience his mercs are instantly hostile the first time you enter town, so I have never been able to have a conversation with him. What is the trigger to make his forces hostile?

 

Friendly fire - i don't know, I haven't encountered such a thing (shot off on par with everyone else using a gauss and neostead).
Martinez - I'll assume that it's a matter of reputation, or the problem is in scripts\triggers ...
Also, 3 unique meetings are mentioned, but there is only one (but she wasn't involved).

 

On reputation... I started a new game, took a new character and went straight from the training grounds to Garbage, talked to no one, and went up to Martinez' base and the mercs were already hostile. My reputation was unknown. The only thing I can think of would be to wander in the wastes until you get a chance to kill some civilians and see if a bad reputation is required. But it's not important. I'd rather play the loyal BoS soldier than a psychotic murderer.

On a totally different subject, I think it's pretty funny that if you take Raul as your starting character and modify him a bit (Fast Shot, 8 perc and agi,) his starting equipment is more than enough to wipe out every hostile in the training grounds and Garbage without breaking a sweat. But if you create your own character you start off naked.

 

Is this mod’s new campaign a continuation of Tactics or a new campaign with different characters?

 

A new campaign. Small compared to the OC but I enjoyed it. - Hint: take one of the pregenerated characters, modify him/her if you wish, but don't create a new character from scratch.

 

In the original, the "create new character" button is missing.

 

- Unofficial patch 1.2 UPDATE 3:

• An introductory video has been added.
• Fixed the display of buttons in the menus for English Lang.
