FO1: NPCs and monsters won't attack me!

H

HybridVision

First time out of the vault
Not sure exactly when this happened, but at a certain point in the game everything stopped attacking me.

I can now freely walk amongst raiders, deathclaws, radscorions, and not be attacked. If I click on my weapon, and thus initiate combat mode, I will then be attacked. Seems the AI has lost the ability to attack me first.

Also, some dialogue options will end with "Now you die!" and after finishing the dialogue, I won't be attacked.

This is basically ruining the game, and I don't want to carry on playing like this. It would be unfortunate to have to start the game again, however :(

Is this a known bug?
 
Did you use any cheating software? Falche for example?

And what level are you?

And I have never seen a death claw turn tail and run...

Well if the uber super mutants even turn tail and run, then you have a major problem somewhere!
 
Are you by any chance playing a character with extremely low intelligence, but extremely high charisma and luck?

Click to expand...

Alecking!

This problem sounds like how it works while you're in recording mode.
 
Sounds as a blessing to me... you could finally safely have Dogmeat around... I mean, a part of me just dies when a Mutie kills him... and yeah, all the Muties die after that happened...

But uhm, I've been using Falche a lot, and I never encountered something like this, so that's probably not it.
 
Well, to answer all your questions:

My guy has a charisma of 6, perception 7, intelligence 8, luck 6.

I'm not using cheating software. The game version is 1.1. I'm not sure if it's the US version or the UK version tho. OS is XP sp2.

Only the raiders "run away" when I try to get close to them. This isn't in combat mode, this is in normal walking around exploring mode.

Nothing can initiate combat mode except me. If I move my mouse over a deathclaw, for example, I get the talk icon. Of course they don't actually have anything to say, but I can walk amongst them pretty much like Steve Irwin.

Oh yeah, I have the Good Natured, Jinxed, Awareness and Empathy traits.
 
same thing

well actually i am having the exact same thing happen to me in fallout 2... it starts right after i umm.... refuse jet from angela bishop. big Bishop yells at me, saying I'm about to die, and then nothing happens. i mean, it is fun wandering around sierra army depot, and the wanamingo mine with a damn thing happening to me... but cmon people...
 
yeah, thats how i know when it happens. i restarted and avoided that part, but has anyone besides the guy who started this thread have this happen?
