Duck and Cover

The only thing is the one action point super sledge attack doesn't work in FO2. In FO2 fast shot doesn't affect melee. Still 12 attacks is pretty impressive for fallout.

Thanks, Pooperscooper and Kahgan, disabling the sound acceleration worked just fine. Beating the game is just the much more satisfying now.

Though gambling may be overpowered its fun. What other games can you base a character around gambling? Overall, I think there are a few skills that are almost worthless. Science, repair, traps and outdoorsman aren't very good. Science and repair may be useful for a few quests but usually trying a fe...

Yeah, I thought it might be that. Does anyway any good apps I can use to slow down my computer? Or correct compability settings that would solve the problem?

Recently I reinstalled FO1, tried a big guns character and beat it. One problem, tho, the end game slides don't play write. The voiceovers don't play and then when I put the subtitles on the slides flick by faster than I can read the text. This is really friggin' annoying as I'm playing with some di...

WOW! I just saw this and all I can say is its very good news. I was hoping Trokia would just forget about the whole fallout thing (with FOT and FOBOS the franchise is pretty much screwed up) and do I new post-apoc game, I have good feeling about this.

:shock: Wow this stuff is great. Every time I take a gander at the new fan art it seems to be getting better. I'll have to try to do something and submit it (mind you it won't be good as these). My favorite is the one with the guy on the wall. Keep up the good work!

Thought this is geting way off topic... I would have to agree with the arguments that if people in the wasteland can manufacture/fix laser weapons that some one would be able to get some cars/ride-on-lawn mowers running. After the bombs drop a suspect people would get a lot more inventive and improv...

Well IMO the most important thing about F3 is that the designers genuinely aim for a good RPG (like the original Fallout) not a wanna be RPG that built to sell but doesn't because it’s just like five other crappy games.

Wow! great job. Wish I had that much talent. Sorry to hear your leaving for a while.

To reply to the original post: 1) be focused on the 'vault dweller' and his descendants. 2) be have to be a prequal/sequal. 3) be set in california. 4) be about a hero going on a vital quest. 5) involve a human PC. 6) be focused on a single PC (i want to control my npc's and send them on quests that...

Thanks for the advice. That part I am most worried about right now is the bandits so I'll use some of the grenades you find at the beggining. I'll try to get the bullet schematic as soon as possible because I am find hard to keep getting all those bullets. I'll probably go for a mix of stats/skills/...

I just started a new character in Arcanum and decided to go with the opposite of what I played before (A melee/magic elf) and play a dwarf gunslinger/technologist. As soon as I started the game I noticed how much harder it was. I managed to get to the first village but I am not sure if a will be abl...

I disabled off visual themes and FO is set to win95 compatibility, but game/death screens still did not play correctly. What is this indeo codec? Will it make the screens work in-game?

I am having the same problem playing FO1 in windows XP. Some of the end game screens don't play. I am running it in windows 95 compatabilty mode. What do you mean by visual themes? Do you mean set the theme to the standard XP theme or windows classic?

I think that it is inevitable that Fallout 3 will be in 3D in less it comes out fairly soon. It seems to me that all games are going in the direction of 3D. Though it may not necessarily make the game better by putting it in 3D. Soon any game not fully 3D will be pictured as out of date and marketin...

You can accuse Farrel of stealing the gold watch and say "why would a poor man have a safe� and he gets pissed. I think that is the only purpose of the wall safe.

Why doesn't Junktown have any children? The Hub has kids, so does Shady Sands and the boneyard. I could see if the game didn't have any children at all, but why the exception for Junktown. I don't see any reason for the citizens to be sterile; I think Boneyard residents are probably more filled with...

So what you're saying is there is a "correct" way of playing the game huh is that what you're saying? If it is, why don't you go jump in a lake P: Not exacatly what I am saying is there are hard ways to play and easier . Like right now I am playing a character from FO1 with 1 intellingenc...

Thanks, iy worked great. I feel stupid now that I couldn't figure that out.
