You should just put the contents of the mod folder in your game/mod folder (i.e. the folder containing the executable you're using). The reason you're not getting any buttons is (I think) that you didn't place the PCX folder correctly, which means the button graphics aren't being found. So what you get if you simply unpack is a data/scripts folder (if you don't already have one) with the script, an .ini file in the main folder alongside the .exe you use, and a PCX folder with the graphics.

OK. I had a feeling that might have been the case with the PCX. I also installed the latest version of sfall, too.
Well, installing the latest version of sfall and making sure the PCX files were situated in the art folders did the trick. All is working well, except the buttons are white with no labeling, and I keep getting a warning about the fact I overwritten the version of sfall that was installed on the RP and I should revert back before it's too late. Is that something I should be concerned about? It hasn't crashed or anything so far. If not a concern, is there a way to shut that warning off? Since it's kind of annoying, since it keeps popping up every few minutes.
You shouldn't overwrite RP's ddraw.ini with the "default" one from sfall package. killap added the warning for a good reason. With the default ddraw.ini, you may not be able to access newly added elevators in RP, the locations list panel might be glitched, no restored karma FRMs, and some dialog scripts related crashes.
Um, as for the RP related stuff I'm deferring to NovaRain. It seems that you've gotten a step further as in the menu loading correctly, but the buttons aren't loading probably because of an error in attaching a procedure (if you have debug running the log would tell you that) to the button, which in turn would seem to suggest that you're still not properly updated to 3.6... maybe RP is conflicting (I'm assuming you did overwrite the .dll and not just the .ini, heh), but I don't know, sorry.
I did overwrite both the .ini and the .dll files with what came with the version of sfall 3.6, but I do have back ups of the original files that came with the RP. I learned that a long time ago to have back ups. Hell, back ups of back ups. Should I just restore those, or just leave it alone for now?
Now that I think about it, I had this issue years ago with sfall and RP. It was probably RP 1.2 or something like that. One of the ones that took a long time for the new version to come out. I tried to install a newer version of sfall back then, probably for some mod that needed it, and had that problem, or something similar and I just had to wait for the newer version of RP to come out with the latest version of sfall at that time. I think it was something like I didn't have the US version of Fallout 2 .exe or was expecting it (I've had that issue with trying to use the mapper, too.) I never could understand that one, considering I live in the US and as far as I know, the copy of Fallout 2 I have is not imported. Well, at least I haven't had the issues that a lot of people had with the game crashing and whatnot, especially from those early versions of the RP. I've been lucky about that.

I have a sensation you should make proper readmes for your mods, Jimmy, such as the one for your damage formula in Sfall on how it works and calculates. As for this mod, I have tried it in vanilla Fallout 2; it works okay until I try to click the buttons, nothing happens at all... I use the high-res mod at a native resolution and DirectX 9, should I use Scale X2 to make up for not wanting to use 640x480 SVGA resolution?
Oh, and does the PCX folder go into Fallout2Install/data like the graphics for Mr. Fixit? Help me with this, thanks.

I agree about the readmes, but in this case it wouldn't say any more than what it says in my OP: "Just unpack it in the main folder of whatever you're using and see if it crashes!" Main folder being the one where the executable is that you're using to play the game, so the PCX folder doesn't go in the /data folder (I used the convention of FON rather than Fixit).
Besides, if the graphics are loading fine it doesn't have anything to do with misplaced folders. Could you perhaps post your ddraw.ini and f2hires.ini's in the same way NovaRain did earlier in this thread? That way I can test it out and see if it works for me.

OK, everything seems to be working good now, other than the buttons still being white with no labeling, but that's not really a big deal, since it's working. I put back the original .ini file so I wouldn't keep getting nagged because of it. 
Before, I didn't realize that you could change the .dll file but keep the older version of the .ini one and thought I had to change both. I guess you learn something new everyday. By the way, why does that even matter with the .ini? I would think it is the same file since it has the same info on it, but a few newer things, hence the new version.

Well Jimmy Rollins, whatcha gonna do about this mod's problem regarding the High-Resolution patch and UAC? I have no intentions of setting UAC_AWARE to 1 just for the problem NovaRain had.@Fox Wernicke, then it won't work in all likelihood, champ. The source files are right there, so if you feel like improving on it, be my guest.

For me setting UAC_AWARE=1 doesn't work either. The cause might be something else.

I happen to have figured out the easy way (or was it the hard one?) about the inventory sorting mod not working: I disabled the high-res thing, and then your mod worked Jim. What could possibly have made the resolution thingy conflict with it? I tested again with Scale X2 (and still DirectX 9 mode), it didn't work either...

I'm not even sure sfall is entirely compatible with the hi-res mod actually. At least, I often see phobos posting about conflicts in the hi-res thread, but Mash doesn't seem that active these days. I honestly haven't got a clue what's going wrong, and am not at all familiar with the workings of the hi-res mod (I just turn it on whenever someone says some mod of mine doesn't work in it
).All I know is that the mod works fine in hi-res mod when I do it, and that I can only get it to not work by disabling UAC....

What about my options in both the f2_res.ini and ddraw.ini? Anyone could test with 'em, or perhaps another problem is other Sfall mods I have that conflict with it?... I have "Party Member Perks" and "Custom Perks", Destroy Bodies and Blood, part of the Rapid Perks mod (to avoid losing previous perks because I didn't pick a perk when I had the chance). I had also tried the Lootable Armor and Weapon Drop to test, but they just made critters in-game attack themselves every single time... Of course, it looked hilarious seeing Frankie in the Den's Hole bash himself to death trying to beat Whitney who tested his patience. They were found on Nirran's website.
There's also the "Party Order add-on" (unofficially expanded one by phobos2077) I have, mostly to allow picking things up obscured by scenery that doesn't let me take things blocked by the graphic. Lastly, I also use the NPC Loot Bodies mod.

Oh well, when the Falltergeist project is complete, many of the things here will likely be built-into it while some others like in Sfall remain optional.
This is most excellent. Do you plan on adding any other sort options? Such as:
Weapons on top (these item types sort to the top, before everything else)
Ammo on top
Armor on top
Drugs on top
Holodisks on top
Skill books on top
Containers on top
Skill-boosters on top
Brofist for including the source code, btw.
Also do subsequent presses of each button (Weight & Cost) toggle between Ascending & Descending? It should.

This is one seriously awesome mod. Inventory management is such a pain. Thank you.
@JimTheDinosaur do you think it would be possible to do buttons for inventory filtering -showing only one type of items at a time? (If it would, I might try to do that)

@NovaRain what is this badass pistol you've got? That desert eagle looks rad too.
@JimTheDinosaur this looks like a fantastic improvement to the game, I'm so sick of having to scroll up and down all the time. I'll give it a go once the kinks are ironed out.
