Modding RP

That helped a little actually now it tells me that fallout 2. Exe is the wrong size, but since f2wedit doesnt recocnize it either I decided to buy the game on ebay and install it, on an unrelated note to create my FoT PA critter what program do I need to use with my animated FRM's or do I simply drop them in a folder and adjust some scripts?

Download the 1.02 US official patch and use that exe after you patch it with the city limits fix. It will work, you can also try the one in the RP. You must have a dodgy haxed exe or something. Don't forget that SFall cannot be present when you want to use the mapper, it's one of those undocumented facts everyone forgets.

Re FRMs... that's out of my league.

Don't bust your balls. Here are the Tactics Power Armor FRM's. http://www.mediafire.com/?490lr6o6r64w6o9

One folder (Tactics Power Armor Override) is designed to override the original Advanced power armor. Just copy the 'data' folder into your Fallout2 folder.

The other folder (Tactics Power Armor Extra) uses a new name for the armor, and will require work with the mapper to add them as a new armor to the game. These are the critter FRMs, I haven't got the actual inventory items. If you go this way then your going to need to read up on how to add new items/critters to the game using the mapper, and making prototypes (the information files attached to the FRMs). Check the tutorial section of the Modding Forum for more information.
 
Decided since my .exe is adjusted all kinds of ways I'll wait a week for my new fallouts to come in the mail and try with a fresh install, but I really appreciate all the help this is gonna be awsome.

Edit: finally did it, added the armor as I one of a kind item without using the mapper, I had to rename all 177 FRM files to overwrite the environmantal armor that was still there from an older version of the RP then I used f2wedit to asign it to the brotherhood combat armor and tweak its stats so its now the brotherhood power armor,

You guys were a huge help, thanks for the frms Pixote and Dude101 you answered alot of my questions about the mapper which I will get going soon,

P.s I downloaded the spinning hammer frm, throwing sledgehammers is really fun.
