Old Fallout fan, lost, need help for FTBOS

Like Tactics? Found a cool mod for another game that reminds you of Fallout? Playing those crappy spin-off console games called "Fallout"? Discuss here.

Yeah, because moderating the FOT forum is a full-time job. If Temaperacl and Retlaw83 are feeling too stressed, we may have to rely on Winston Henry.

This was established long ago. The only xp that is awarded individually is for healing and repairing otherwise if you kill someone worth 10xp everyone gets 10xp no matter how many are in your party and if the reward for completing an objective is 100xp everyone gets 100xp regardless.

oh yeah Alex - Winston Henry made this great game called "Killa" - you should try it! It's probably better than the console Fallout game!

Then call it that I don`t have any idea about how to put a finger on a keyboard`s buttons...Think about this : You got a job(your own job) which starts at 8.00am / finishs at 8.00pm; now this is a full-time job and my only time for myself is sunday.I don`t want to see a computer screen outside my company at my off times.(I`m writing these from office)

Uhm,sure? :? (I mean that`s ok about your healing,repairing etc. skill using part but number of members matters for the base combat xp. for each character as I know.)

Nope makes no difference, the game awards experience to your player index not individuals (other than any use of first aid, doctor, repair and science). This is part of the reason squad members continue to gain experience if returned to the recruit pool.

...and if you are saying this for a second time then this probably means you took its math. part for both a full squad and for just main character in combat; right?...which makes you %100 sure.Ok,then.

I don`t believe, I`m not even that psycho at gaming :giggle:

Checking my squad and I figure out that the guys I recruited (aside from Farsight and Stitch) are NOT the characters I edited.

I've modified the files for 3 characters (Torn, Jax, Robin, iirc), but they don't show up on the Alpha Bunker after mission 1. Even after editing my main character to Senior Initiate, I don't have those 3 characters (rank Initiate) even though I now have the option to recruit higher-level characters (Ice, etc.). Why is this happening? Any help?

Yes, having spent the best part of 4.5 years modding the game, I'm certain. Plus as I said this was established long ago (not by me) any experience reward (other than skill applications) is applied equally to your squad not divided between them.

Or they could try the modding forum like everyone else wanting to modify the game.

Did you start a new game after making your changes? What did you use to edit them with? You might have corrupted the files.

Edited with the Fallout Editor. Characters are "legal" (ie, no superstat, and made only with the "make" button). Files are "unpacked" with the Fallout Booster program, so no .bos files here but just .ent files in folders.

And yes, it's busted for both "current" games and for "new" games.
