Two things.

I have two completely different questions. At first I was going to put them into two separate topics but I think that it might be frowned upon to post two topics in a row, so here are both of them.

First of all: I seem to be experiencing a bug in NCR, while talking with the car-watching junkie. After talking with him for a little bit while wearing power armor, I close the conversation with the "moron" or "retarded" dialog-- he says something like "woah, thought communication, let me try it", I say "Uh, yes?". He replies something like "Good, talk to Merk, he's always got things need doing." All fine so far. But then my only dialog choice is "Go bye-bye!" which seems to be clearly one of the "retarded" dialogs. What's up with this? I don't know if this is connected to a mod or to vanilla game so I'm posting here.

Secondly: Is there a mod which makes the dialog screen and stuff when using the resolution patch look nice? They currently have really sharp corners which cut them off, and I think that adding a little metallic border to them would fit much more with the vibe of "old tech" that they have to them.

Why do you specifically mention wearing the Power Armor? Do you think that the bug is related to that factor?

Anyway, have you by any chance used Mentats some time ago? Maybe its effects wore off suddendly after having this conversation and you're victim of the lowered-intelligence side-effect.

Have you tried setting the DIALOG_SCRN_BACKGROUND option to 1 in the f2_res.ini? It really improves the dialogue screen while using the High-Res patch for me.

I had assumed that the reason he thought that I was a "giant" was the power armor, as this is the only circumstances under which I've had this conversation.

Nope, never used mentats. No need-- this character had 10 INT.

I'll take a look, I'll edit this once I've tried it.
