Fallout 2 mod Unofficial Fo2 patch thread - problems, reports, suggestions

Heh...So I found something in Fallout 2 that basically no one knows about? That's kinda neat. (Ego Points +10, Head size +9) (kidding) I'm not certain if it's something Killap added or if it is something in the game itself...but...either way, it sucks because I ended up losing like an hour worth of work because of that crash. Bleh.
 
Fannie Mae quest was added for unofficial expansion pack. Seems like killap forgot to remove it from unofficial patch.
 
Is 1.02.22 bug free from what was accidentally added to it from the expansion? or is there some place i can get a hold of an older version of the unofficial patch that does not have any expansion content added? I assume that would still be less buggy/more worth it that a newer version with the unwanted expansion content?

PS: there is still support for having children in game in this patch correct? seems like in the installer it used to be an option
 
black screen

i have the latest patch (downloaded from killap's server) and also the v1.1 expansion. got windows xp installed.

my first problem is that i can't go down in the manhole that's in trapper town in klamath (the rat quest). if i try to go down screen goes black and i get application error. :( i have tried reinstalling, start a new game, tried different "tweaks" that i have read here (removing the map files etc) still doesn't work :(

my second problem is that i can't find fred at the den. i have found a guy close to mom's restaurant that i guess is him,. (it say he is a klamath citizen or something) but i can't get a convo with him. :

First of all this is the patch thread, since you are using the expansion your post should go in the restoration project thread.
Second, the patch is included in the expansion so you don't need a separate patch. Using both might possibly cause conflicts between the two. (Not sure, but try it again with only of them installed.)

Fred can be found in Flick's house, or somewhere between there and Becky's.

cheers

Hi!
I found a bug in FO2, just read the description:
http://www.nma-fallout.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=41697&highlight=

Difficult to say whether this is a true bug, though it's pretty safe to call it an oversight.

I also have problems with entering vault 13. I can visit it normally the first I arrive there, but after leaving and reentering some time later the game crashes to the desktop with any message.

This happens if you kill Matt and has been reported.
 
Any word on when the next version will be released? I know there's a lot more attention on the restoration project right now, but I'm losing track of which bugs are known and fixed and which aren't.

No specific date, but it will be before an update to the expansion. All new fixes are done for the unofficial patch and all I have left is to go through about 10 or so scripts and make sure all expansion content is not included.

I haven't visited these forums in a while nor have I touched anything Fallout related in weeks. I have some free time in the coming days, so we'll see where that takes me...
 
Killap,

Your dedication to Fallout 2 is nothing less than heroic. I know you're going to school and who knows what else. Thank you from me and your many fans. Sometimes I thinks your mission to get "everything" correct may be a mission impossible.
Keep up the great work, when you can.
 
Forgot to ask, i bought the whitelabel fallout collection which includes the two games and the tactics one. But apparentely i've been told that the UK games are censored, mainly kid based stuff. Killap does your patch restores the censored stuff?
 
yes it does (at last the child thing)

i dunno if add the gore patch but if not just download it

and hi to all of you guys ( i haven't enter the foruns for a while)
 
Hello, everybody.
I started to play Fallout 2 with this patch. First, I really-really liked it, because there is no annoying bugs at all, which is really good for overall "in-game diving" process :)
But a problem has occurred, effectively destroying in process all the fun I've got so far.
So, I came to the Vault City (spent lots of great time in other cities before), took reactor repairment quest, repaired it. After that I'm going to the brain-rat in Gecko in order to enlist their perspective organization. And here it comes: all dialogue lines with the rat consist from "error" messages only. I don't know, what I've told to the poor thing, but I somehow managed not to piss her off. After that I'm going to McClure, gotta tell him about reactor job. I initiate the dialog and he tells me "error" (yeah, just like that; where his manners are?) So, I reply the same "error"-ous way and dialog collapses. And I get no citisenship at all (and I should, if my memory serves me right), though Lynette tries to scare me about how I got this imaginary citizenship and stuff.
So, I think, my question stands pretty clear. What should I do?
I have already tried to reinstall the game. If it makes any additional sense, my installation consists only of the perfectly english Fallout 2 (dunno though, US it or UK) and Killap's patch.
I really looking forward to continue the game. I haven't played Fallout, like, for several years and in this game I'm getting huge amount of fun. Don't wanna ruin it.
PS: my english looks kinda poor after "preview" button, so pardon me in advance :)
PPS: I've tried to search the problem, but there is 37 pages and search function came back with no good results

This is caused by a mistake on my part due to me including expansion scripts by mistake.

All of this will be corrected in the coming update, but for the time being I put up a fixes directory that contains some (but not all) of the critical fixes in the coming release.

Just download these files and copy them over to you fallout2/data/scripts directory overwriting what is already there.

Grab them here

Again, I apologize for this and any fun ruined as a result.

Thank you very much! Now it works properly :)
 
aven't been able to find this information by reading the readmes and looking around, so if anyone knows, I would be grateful. Is the grav plate thing fixed now? Can I go to T-Ray, get my car back and still get the upgrade after the game? Thanks.
 
Hi, killap:
Just to mention 2 bug i found on your unofficial patch:

MODOC: Farrel doesn't take Cornelius's clock when you give it to him (it stays on your inventory), but at least you cannot give it to him again.

DEN: Smithy doesn't take the fuel cell regulator after install it. I'm not sure if he install it, because you can install it again forever.

Yeah, I noticed that too. And I believe it isn't installed. So, what I did => I put the cell regulator in my character's hand and I talked to Smitty... he finally took it.
