Hi all, new to the forums but not too fallout. Third timing playing through #2 and loved playing #1 many years back. Anyway this is the third time for me playing through fallout 2 and I've developed a stange problem ive never had before. I've tried searching to find the answer but to no avail. Im running OSX 10.3.9 a dual 2.0ghz G5(no intel obviously). Anyway I forgot to install the patch till i already had done most of the game....my problem is simple but sooooo anoying when in combant mode i can not toggle between weapons...since i like to play with stimpacks in the 1st slot and the gauss rifle in the second slot its making Navvaro really freakin difficult.....so heres the deal i can switch back and forth when not in combat mode, but when in it i cant...however it does change to the yellow mouse pointer crosshairs thing wheh i change from the gauss rifle to the stimpack but i cant use it as nothing happens and the image doesnt change showing the stimpacks it keeps showing the rifle...........once i discovered this i installed the patch and tried reloading multiple saved files.....no dice on any of them, what can i do at this point i really dont feel like starting over but its gonna be impossible later on...also when in combat for a while with alot of people it like to crash the program which really sucks after i wiped out half of navaro(DOH!!!!!) and it crashed and my last save was right before i took out the commander...anyway if you all have any suggestions id really appreciate your help..sorry for the long post and I CANT WAIT FOR FALLOUT 3!!!!!!!

Don't double post, the edit button is there for a reason.
Check if you've trying to use a two-handed weapon with a crippled arm. Also, have you tried reinstalling and then applying the patch?
By the way, it's normal that patching the game will render your old savegames unusable.

Uh first of all, last I checked it costs 2 AP / stimpack target select (aka 2 AP's per stimpack) if it's in an action slot. Whereas it costs 2 AP (assuming you got QP- FFS it's one perk to make accessing your inventory [unlimited reloading/healing/drug using/dynamite planting/weapon changing] to the same cost as reloading ONE weapon) and even if you didn't take it, you can only use two stimpacks in your slot before it becomes less effective. Also, as another critique of your build, Gauss Pistol > Rifle anyday...1 less AP/shot for a little damage and a little range..
My solution to your problem: Build a better char so you don't have to switch at all, OS X FO2 isn't trustworthy.
That isn't true for OS X FO2 players, and the OS X patch was pulled for a reason, it didn't really help much and I believe thats because it was only necessary to patch a very early version of the game[which was later dropped in favor or a newer more recent version].
