Fallout 2 mod Megamod version 2.47 Bug Reports and Suggestions

hello ... I reinstalled this beast via the installer to a subfolder away from base game, and again, I'm stuck with the good 'ol "can't find\load text fonts" error. I reinstalled the game. I've tried changing the master.dat and critter.dat paths in the cfg. file to where Fallout 2 is, and even copying the .dat files from Fallout 2 into the Megamod folder and changing the cfg. paths again, but I can't remember what I did to make the mod work the first time. I know everyone likes being asked the same question over and over, but if you can help a guy out I'd appreciate it ... sorry
if your game installed in c:\games\Fallout 2, then the mod is installed c:\games\Fallout 2\megamod.
If you want to install in the main folder with the game, then: specify the main path c:\games\Fallout 2 and on the next page check "root directory mode"

Will this not cause errors and bugs in the game
 
Okay, so, I selected the root directory mode and reinstalled the Megamod into Fallout 2's folder. Then, I copied the master and critter .dats into the mod's folder and almost made the mistake of deleting the patch000.dat file. I put it back, and now I'm able to play and save. Thank you Vali and Pyran. Hopefully this comment finally puts the "can't find\load text fonts" error to bed.
 
1. Install Fallout 2, example C:\Games\Fallout 2
2. Install Megamod to C:\Games\Fallout 2\Megamod
3. Start Megamod from desktop icon.

1. Install Fallout 2, example C:\Games\Fallout 2

3. Chech "Root directory mode"

No more manipulation is required. No need to delete patch000.dat, it particaly of megamod. Original (F2) patch000.dat renamed to .da_

@Vali Can you get me the needed files to get the brotherhood working right please

I am trying to fix also that thing with the vertibird.

For the Brotherhood is only a Dialoge that you normally get from Major Burke that guy without helmet waiting near the Elevator.
