For FO1, use Mini DatMan instead of DatMan Light.

OOOhh, oops, I thought he meant the mapper didn't work, my bad. Sorry. Personally I use the good old DOS version to extract stuff from FO1. Once you get used to it it's much better then the GUI'd versions (well, unless you want to extract everything, the "dos box" version seems slower).

Um dude, I didn't post any mapper, Dims did. And there's supposed to be a version (ie .96a or .96b) since he released both.

As for Windows, is it 95,98,98se, ME OR Windows NT4, WIndows 2000, or Windows XP?

Now by the looks of your answer, you're probably on Windows 9x/ME, and the mapper doesn't work on 9x/ME...

Oops, I was looking at the "Last Post" category. Yeah, I got 2k...

EDIT: on second thought, what do you set the "Local Data Location" box to?
