Recently started playing the original fallout and it seems my character cannot target enemies, it just won't give me the icon when I right click. I created a new character and right clicked in unarmed and I can. If I load my saved game from the newgame with targeting mode enabled I can use it my save game but I soon as I disable it I can not re-enable it. anybody else had this problem?

I haven't heard of that bug before. Aimed shots are disabled with some weapons(burst) and also if your character has got the Fast Shot trait, but other than that I can't figure out what the problem is. Install the latest patch if you already haven't done so.

Yeah most likely fast shot perk :noob:.

hmmm... seems to be bugged out the current game I am playing. even though the intial traits I chose were bloody mess and finesse, highlighting finiese shows fast shot on the right. In my karma also says child killer but highlighted it says berserker. Strange, but starting a new character seems to have solved it. But having this bug showed me by loadig a charcter with targting enabled and then loading a charcter with fast shot alows you to target, so as long as you don't disable it. lol.

That's just odd.

Just to avoid even more screwups try not to save/load during combat.


Also it seems like linked lists have become mismatched, like getting the teeth wrong on a zipper.
Mebbe replace some .dlls?
