Playing past the ending in Fallout 1.

I know a mod exists that allows you to continue playing but I own the OS X version of Fallout 1 so I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work for me. I've decided to replay the game but I always thought it sucked that you couldn't continue playing after the overseer exiled you. There is a very informative walkthrough (http://user.tninet.se/~jyg699a/fallout.html) I read to see if there were any aspects of Fallout 1 I missed. Near the end of the walkthrough it states this:
The thought crossed my mind a while back but I could never actually achieve what is describes here. Has anyone actually gotten this to work?So you thought killing the Overseer was funny? Here's an additional twist: use the moment you have before he appears to turn your character in another direction. When the times comes to shoot, your character will fire the gun in the direction he or she is currently facing, and the Overseer still gets hit! That's gunmanship. It's also possible to use this time to run to the world map (if you manage to click on the exit grid before the game takes control away from you, you'll get away). Now you can continue playing the game as long as you don't return to the Vault 13 cave map. When you come back here, another Overseer will appear next to the first one! You only get to shoot one of them, though. He's worth 250 xp, by the way
