Megamod 2.44 problem

First time out of the vault
Hello

Today I have felt nostalgia call to play Fallout 2 and I've spent numerous hours trying to make Megamod to work. What basicly is happening - I get error: "Instruction at XXXXXX referenced memory at YYYYYY. The memory could not be read from. Click OK to terminate application."

I am using system: Windows 7 64bit, i7, 8gb ram

What I did:
1 Fresh install off CD (no patching)
2 Apply windows install version of Megamod 2.44

My saves do work until after I talk to village elder (just after trail), then they stop working right after I talk to village shaman.

I've searched various tips over the forums and google as well and nothing is helping.

Hope someone here could lend me a hand.

regards
meneq
 
What version of Fallout 2 CD do you use?

Does black window with bunch of running text shows up at the end of megamod installation?
It should patch master.dat.
 
I've got fiew versions at my disposal. First one is complete edition of Fallout series DVD, but thats from local store and localized, so I didnt use it. I also got copy on Steam with some bundle, but I knew better not to use it as well, and finally I've found some English cd image on the net and thats version 1.0 UK - I used that one. What do you advice?

My master.dat has been modified. Original has 333 176 843 bytes and moded 333 181 953 bytes

So what game version is best to use? Let me know and I'll try to get it.
Or maybe I should apply 1.02d to this 1.0 UK? And then remove the patch000.dat file?

Additionally I tried patching 1.0 UK to 1.02d before applying Megamod 2.44 (incl. deleting patch000.dat file), but that hasnt worked :/
 
BTW, meneq,
Did you apply fixes in my signature after installing the Megamod? If you didn't, it might be what's causing the save problems.
 
No I havent. Havent found instructions how to use them. Can I just extract files over the patched version or should I download manual megamod installation version and extract files before running the patching procedure?
 
You have to extract them to DATA folder in Fallout 2 folder AFTER installing megamod.

Fixes replace few scripts that are bugged.
