:) i dont have delphi 7 compiler ,but i rewrite your patcher.exe in C++ language,and i found the offsets ,it here:

//cn:0x2E3AC en:0x2EE7C
//cn:0x2E44C en:0x2EE1C
//cn:0x2e280 en:0x2ED5C
#define ButtonDestinationsOffset 0x2E3AC
#define ButtonsCountOffset 0x2E44C
#define ElevatorImageOffset 0x2e280

:mrgreen: i recompiled it and it works fine on my version
:mrgreen: thank you for your source code.
 
Hi sonil

You could start mod on the Chinese version?

You have added in pather.exe offsets?

Chinese version aside, how do I install this thing (in English)? I go to the first site, and get what looks like an error message in Russian. Could you host a copy anywhere else please?
 
I read somewhere that Chris Avellone said many resources from F1 were left in and reused in F2. (I think it was the mapper manual.) He said it was taken out due to space considerations, but could be added back in by someone patient enough to do so. How much was left in and what was not? Obviously movies, talking heads, and sound files were left out. What else makes F1 maps incompatible with F2?

The maps are fully compatible. Differ only decorations and walls, which were in f1 in the town of shady shands. In f2 in their place other frm. I added decorations and wall in TILES.LST and walls.lst. And redraw the maps, SHADYE.MAP and SHADYW.MAP. The difference is only in the stairwells in the maps.
In F1 ladder processed through scripts.
 
So, if we add those F1 map files, (other than Shady Sands, V13, V15) and had a worldmap large enough to fit them into, then we could see them in F2?

Map scripts would need to be redone, so not to call old characters and talking heads that don't exist in F2?

Sorry I am ignorant of so much, just trying to understand what might be possible.
 
Adding the locations in is really quite easy. Just need to replace some art in some cases. Will need to remove all scripts attached to any critters and add new ones (or just remove the existing critters). However, the other thing to keep in mind, to make it really work in F2, s to ensure that the locations have been properly "aged" 80 years.

Yes.

All that you say it is possible to do.

You want combined maps f1 and f2?
 
You can't combine the maps directly, as the maps are at different scales. If you shrank the F1 map by about 50%, added lots of ocean, filled in a bit of coastline, adjusted the positions of a few cities, and modified the terrain types of some squares, it would mostly match. However, the artwork styles are completely different, so it would look incongruous. It might be easier to find a good artist to redraw one of the maps from scratch. I prefer the F1 style, having much more variation and detail.
 
IIRC Corpse was working on such a map years ago, with FO1 maps and new ones all added in.

Unfortunitly he's too anal about having sixty bajillion guns with realworld sounds for each one.

TBH Im suprises that so far noone has simply re-made the maps themselves for FO2.

Junktown would be easiest, 95% or more of it simply could have changed in the 80years since.

Shady sands is allready in of course, ditto V15, would just need to re-ad the 'back' door to it that the player used in FO1 (unless thats what the squatters shack entrence that was unusable was)

V13 allready in it.

The Cathedral would be easy, big ass crater.

Military base allready used as well.

The Hub/LA would be a bit of a challenge, you'd have to rebuild the towns AND add more onto them while making changes here and there to the pre-existing parts (cause some buildings would have burnt down or been replaced in the time since, infact a lot might have been replaced due to the prosperity they've had). LA, you'd have to rebuild AND update quite a bit.

BOS bunker interior would be easy, wouldnt have changed too much. Surface would have to have a town on it, a main town area, then outlying farms (because it would both make sense and add to their prefernce to be isolated to allow farmers that want to be left alone to settle there in return for protection and being well supplied in return for the food they provide, prehaps a small scale manufacturing center of various types as well. One for ammo, both re-using brass as well as making new brass and rounds+powder, and another for making weapons, plus it would allow the senior scribers to concentrate on the hi-tech stuff while the junior ones gain experince making lowertech and weaker weapons to flood the market with in return for lotsa gold and supplies for the BOS)

Necropolis would be a pain cause it has so many buildings, and would also have to be updated to have some limited industry, plus the vault repaired a bit. Prehaps a building or two in a 'smooth skin' district with regular human merchants and what not.

Amazing mod! Is it possible to get video and heads back or is this still being worked on? I tried extracting the data from my Fallout 1 master.dat (as you showed in your sample 1.bat) and putting it in the data folder, but it did not work.
