Fallout 2 unofficial patch 1.04

Post by Ausir »

<strong>[ -> Update]</strong>

<b>Locutus</b> has made a new version of his unofficial 1.04 Fallout 2 patch (made using the mapper). Here are some of the huuuge list of fixes:
<br><ul>
<br>- Fixed a bug that enabled you to go thru certain walls in Hubologist's Base and Cat's Paw
<br>- Now you're unable to get the loot from the four boxes in Broken Hills
<br>- Dead Enclave Guard from Klamath now has dog tags instead of the keycard
<br>- Holy Hand Grenade CAN be found now
<br>- Cafe of Broken Dreams no longer repops after being found
<br>- Now Vault 15 looks more like in FO1
<br>- Party Members now change thier appearance when wearing armor
<br>- Fixed a bug that prevented you from getting the best ending for Gecko
<br></ul>
<br>You can get the patch at <a target=_blank href=http://fallout.scifi.pl>Sierra Army Depot</a> or directly here: <a href=http://fallout.ussbrowarek.org/pliki/pa ... .zip>US/UK version</a> and <a href=http://fallout.ussbrowarek.org/pliki/pa ... zip>Polish version</a>.
<br>
<br><b>Note:</b> Locutus has said "Due to the large number of errors in the 1.04 version patches, I recommend not using them. There will soon be a 1.05 version which will fix the bugs." - so maybe think twice before installing this patch.

Very interesting. Sounds cool.

But why take away the best ending for Gecko?

He fixed a bug that did that, Goose.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

I know what you mean. Chris Beddoes just put out a nifty looking Arcanum patch, but I don't feel a real urge to play Arcanum right now.

!!!ATTENTION!!!

Due to the large number of errors in the 1.04 version patches, I recommend not using them. There will soon be a 1.05 version which will fix the bugs.

Sorry for that. :cry:

other than the holy hand grenade, this patch doesn't really sound that useful...

Personally I think there are too many non-essetial fixes slapped in... Like the changing team members... I don't find it useful for the NPCs to change and in fact find it annoying.

The only thing I changed with NPC's is with thier appearance when wearing armor (this is what you're talking right?). It looks stupid to see Cassidy wearing power armor and still looking like a leather dude.

There are some things however that shouldn't be changed or deleted. Got me here. 8) I will change some of them in the v1.05.

It looks stupid to see Cassidy wearing power armor and still looking like a leather dude.[quote]I prefer having them as the original look and be able to tell them apart without hovering over them then to see 4 to 6 people following me in PA... (Whihc is how I usually play the game).

Anyhoo, all the power to those who like it, I don't.
