FO1 - Super Pulse Rifle - Help

[Mad-Max]

Hi everyone. I just registered. Im glad to be in a FallOut community now. I absolutly love the FallOut series. Cant wait for FO3. Anyway, i need alittle help. I seem to have lost my Super Pulse Rifle that i had gotten upgraded in the BoneYard Town. I think i layed it on the ground to manage some of my other items do to weight problems. I was out in the map, after a random encounter. So now i have absolutly no idea where i layed the weapon. I was wondering if its at all possible to upgrade another, or buy another, or put a cheat code in to get JUST that weapon again, being hows i already earned it, i wouldnt consider that cheating. I just really need that Super Pulse Rifle back again. Awaiting your replies. Thanks =]

Well, remains to be seen if Fo3 will actually be a Fallout game.

Anyway, i need alittle help. I seem to have lost my Super Pulse Rifle that i had gotten upgraded in the BoneYard Town. I think i layed it on the ground to manage some of my other items do to weight problems. I was out in the map, after a random encounter.

It's gone, and the inventory editor for Fo1 has limited options. (I don't know if one of them can get you a Turbo Plasma Rifle.) However, if you absolutely have to have this weapon you can do it in a sort of roundabout way like this:

1. Go to the world map just outside the Boneyard and save.
2. Load an old save before you upgraded the rifle, or start a new game if you have to.
3. Do what you need to do to upgrade the weapon as before. Drop it on the ground before leaving the map and save the game.
4. Alt-Tab out and look in the save folder for your new game. There should be a map file called laadytum.sav or something like that.
5. Load your original game, then Alt-Tab out and swap out your current laadytum.sav with your new one, keeping the old one around.
6. Enter the Boneyard. You should see a gun where you left it. Take it, hug it, leave to the world map again.
7. Alt-Tab out (or save and quit) and put your backup save file back to restore the map from your old game.
8. Profit.

Step 2 probably involves the most work unless you have a recent save file (from any game - doesn't have to be with your current character). You'll have to decide if it's worth it.

But um hey, can i ask about your sig message? It says..

Could you explain to me what thats all about? Why is the FallOut community a "glittering gems of hatred" ?

 

[Per]

It's a long story. Let's just say our favourite franchise has been repeatedly abused by arrogant, deceptive morons. Some think this gives us the right to be angry, some don't, some think we should be wary of more abuse, some don't.

I see, I see. Well if one of those abuses to FallOut is that peice of shit of a game on the original Xbox, Then i agree. That game was truely an insult to the fans who have been waiting and waiting, and waiting for another FallOut. The only thing about that game, that was any use, was the graphics. It had pretty good graphics. All they had to do was give a FallOut 1/2 Camera veiw, and impliment an "Action point" System, a better story, and that game wouldnt have been half bad. I wouldnt mind if FO3 was on 360/Ps3, as long as they make the combat system exactly like its supposed to be, and a story worth sittin down for.

It's called Fallout.

This is not the Fallout 3 forum.
Closed, since the issue was resolved.

If you want to talk about what should and shouldn't be in Fallout 3, read parts of the Fallout 3 archives first and then post in the Fallout 3 forum, if you think you have something new to add.
