FO1 children problem

Oracle

Vault Senior Citizen
I'm replaying FO1 with the children patch but somehow they still arnt in the game.

I'm also useing the folowing mods :

patch V1.2
Cpt corpse cheat tool.
The end game patch

I put the FRM's in the data/art/critter folder and used the falloutw.exe thats with the mod

Might there be a conflict between the child patch and the mods I'm using ?

tnx

Did you install the children patch as the last one?

I installed it before and after installing the mods. I believe I had the child patch working one time(before the mods)

So you think its the mods fault that the kids are removed again?

It seems that the game doesnt even look at the child frms

Use the FIFE FO1 critter patch and report back if it worked!

http://wiki.fifengine.de/index.php?title=Fallout_critters_patches

Download the needed package depending on your Fallout (1 or 2) and language (uk or ger) version

Create a new folder on your desktop: patch

Copy the CRITTER.DAT from your Fallout CD into the patch-folder

Execute the fo$fallout_$language_US.bat

The CRITTER.DAT gets patched now, the original file gets renamed to CRITTER.OLD

Ok I did this. the new CRITTER is 0 kb in size. is this correct.

I made the folder "'patch"" and I put the Critter.dat from my fallout folder in it. I did the humongus install so both mater.dat and critter.dat are located on my hard disk.

Then I placed the 3 files the the patch folder aswel. I started FO1_UK_US.bat and the new critter file got made and the critter.old was created aswell.

When in placed the newly created CRITTER.dat back in the fallout folder, the game gave me the error : couldn't find critter.dat please insert the disk. I made an extra critter.dat backup so no harm done.

I get the feeling that I didn't do it right. soooo WHELP MEEE
:P

Yeah, but did you use the US patch?

Yup I did.

I made a backup of my whole FO1 folder and patched the other FO1 folder with the patch from teamx. The mods I had installed weren't working anymore but the children where back. I discited to remove the FO with kids and bring back the backup one. When I went to see if the mods where working again (and they did) I took a little trip to shady sand. and guess what... children

very odd as I removed the FO folder completely and didn't let the backup overwrite it.

thanks for the help all !

Edit

The children are even back on the maps were I have been before. neat :)
 
You'd better install the TeamX's patch after the Children Patch but before any other mods or patches. And children should work fine all the way.
