Time for another instalment of "Have You Seen These Bugs", this time for Fo1.
1. Something I found on the net, slightly shortened for your convenience:
I have been unable to replicate this following the described procedure (the "may not work in every case" bit tends to indicate you won't). There are one or two details that don't make sense - for instance, Gizmo and his gun are not created when you go to fight him, so the only way to get two of him is to load the map twice without saving it in between. But even if somehow the game managed to load the map on top of itself, there shouldn't be two guns in one corpse - unless there were two Gizmo desks, but I doubt the poster would have neglected to mention that. And if Gizmo loads on top of himself, why wouldn't Izo? However, I know for a fact that fucked-up things happen on this particular map (and it's probably this rather than the dynamite procedure that could have made this happen), so I don't want to dismiss it just yet. Has anyone else seen this?
2. Jay reported on this board a while ago, on the topic of winning the game with the water chip timer still ticking:
3. I've been unable to find the dead kid in the Glow. Could anyone give a detailed description of where to find it? (But please don't mail me screenshots unless they're jpg-ized and resized.) I don't know if this is related, but when I hit kids with the Flamer, they never do the dancing death by fire although I verified that the graphics are there. I still get other kinds of special kid deaths, like the sniper rifle "side of meat" thingy, so it doesn't seem to be a violence setting thing (it's on max).
4. The Billy miniquest. I've verified that all the code is in place - however, it needs to be triggered by Dan coming over to the pen to yell at Billy. The timed event to accomplish this seems as if it _should_ work. Billy has a very similar set of timed events to make him move about the pens, but he does it extremely rarely. Yet the fact that it happens at all means that maybe Dan could get his ass moving too. Could a scripter take a look at Dan's script and see if there's an obvious reason for why he wouldn't move? I thought maybe it's because the pathing breaks down (the pens being across the street from Dan's house), but that wouldn't explain why Billy is sluggish as well.
5. Someone reported the game often crashes when fighting in the Brotherhood on level 1. I have no idea why it would. Anyone else experience this?
6. Chess in the Glow - anyone ever win? If so, were you on mushrooms at the time? If not, what stats did you have? You need a critical IN roll success to win, but at the moment I suspect that you can't even get crits on stat rolls, only skill rolls.

I tried this but my game never fails to end, whether I'm in travel or sleep or combat or running around mode. Anyone else?Jay said:
