Fallout 2 Restoration Project Walkthrough

• Fallout 2 Lightsaber

Feb 5, 2019 - Restoration Project walkthrough. Installation instructions: 1. Make a clean installation of Fallout 2 (humongous install). If you are running.

• Fallout 2 seemed to take the 'more is better' approach and went overboard on lots of stuff, and it ended up wrecking the atmosphere. Both games were good, but I liked Fallout more for the overall effect, whereas Fallout 2 was fun for different reasons.
• Oct 17, 2017 - This walkthrough assumes you have installed the Restoration Project mod v2.3.3; 'Area' or 'map' or 'screen' means a sub section of a city.

Fallout 2 Lightsaber

Create a shortcut to the game on the Windows 95/98 desktop. Then, use the Settings/Control Panel/Display/Effects options to turn on 'Large icons'. The desktop icon for the game will now turn into a new graphic.

Access the PipBoy and stay at that screen to eventually see the old Fallout screensaver on the PipBoy screen.

Hold [Shift] and click on the 'Credits' button to hear various comments from the development team.

Another RP release packed full of fixes is at hand and we even have some restored content to go with it too! With the imminent arrival of Wasteland 2, hopefully you can get at least one more Fallout 2 round in.
Will there be more RP releases? Well, you can only chisel away for so long, but there does seem to be some critter animations (Punk Girl, actual combat leather jacket animations, etc) being worked on and it would be a shame if they didn't find their way into the RP. And of course bug lists make me sad. But I will say this, if you've been waiting, don't wait anymore. Seriously. Just play. It seems obsession is the only driving force for me to keep working on these continued updates and that's just not as fun as it should be.
So without further ado, enjoy!
Note: Previous 2.3.x save games should be compatible, but to ensure no problems come up please start anew. There are some areas that will potentially break with old saves unless you enter them for the first time. You've been warned.
Bug reports should be added to the Fallout 2 RP bug report wiki. A link can be found below. Posting issues only in this thread risks your report being lost over time.
