Fallout 2 Submitted by Kay-Win Knub lostduck88@hotmail.com GameTip: -------- When you are traveling form vault 15 to broken hills, If you have the Fortune finder perk (Would help you had character editor) you might find a federation shuttle. If your luck is ten and the plays its part there is a hidden cave that has almost every item and shows where all towns are Vault 13, San Fransisco, New Reno etc... OH! Go to C:/ Directory and go to program files find blackisle and go to data Then savegame find yer slot and go to proto file then it says critters and items. GO TO CRITTERS. Rename the file to allitems.sav and add it to zip. All your weapons can be upgraded for free! ------------------------------------------ Go into the basement of New Reno Arms (Behind the bookshelves) talk nicely to The idiot you'll find there and he'll upgrade your weapons for free. Tested on v.1.0/1.02 -------------------- Take the man his stuff!!! ------------------------- If you see someone with a nice gun walk up to them hit "3" and click on them (did i mention Save the game first? DO IT!!!) take his stuff like ammo so he cant reload then after enduring how ever many times you had to be shot KILL THE S>O>B and take his stuff! Get free guns!!! ---------------- In New Reno go to the Arms shop and kill the shopkeeper you're karma won't change but you can steal his guns (he has a minigun, sniper rifle etc.) All Xpoints you want! --------------------- Unlimited. In NCR go to the building were the woman asks you to help her with the power plant. Inside is a cop about to blow himself up. Let him. Then fix the computer the woman rushes to. Fix it and recieve 4000exp and books on science and healing. Try and fix it again, keep trying to you do. When you fix it, its like the first time all over again. Talk to the woman and she'll give you them books and exp. Repeat, its unlimited. 300% in ALL skills ------------------- Get the Book I found a book in the game that will give you 300% in all skills. It is in New Reno after you beat the game. To get it you must talk to Father Tulley. He will say your a hero. He will give you this book and you need to read it. Good start ---------- For a bunch of cool weapons and stuff near the beginning of the game, hunt around for a random encounter. When you find one, search for a cave entrance and go inside. There should be either geckos or bandits in high quantities. Once, after killing a load of female bandits, i got a bunch of money, guns, and 3 pairs of plated gloves! Also, in Redding, you can get a bunch of money by talking to the red-text dealer and betting $100 every time, and by looting the room behind the cash guy in the same casino. Free weapons ------------ Go to San Francisco and talk to brotherhood of steal guy and then go up to navero and kill guy in purple robe and got inside building and enter base talk to big guy and say your a recruit he will let you in storage and you can take anything you want in lockers!! Kill mutants easy ----------------- It's in NCR, where the doctor tells you to prove the antidote for the mutants, after you prove the first one on any mutant, you go back and he'll give you the dog, talk to him again and he'll give you the antidote again (this is a good way to kill all the mutants of Broken Hills). Tip1 & Tip 2 Submitted by: Roger "Big Bogg" Tip1: ----- If your character is relly good at energy weapons you`ll find an extremely good weapon in the brotherhood of steel san francisco base ( to enter you`ll have to get the vertibird plans for them ) it`s downstairs in one of the lockers , it`s a YK42B Pulse rifle, dmg 54-78 , aim and shoot in the eye , perhaps not so good percentage but almost always a good critical hit approximate dmg 100-250 ( range doesn`t matter )depends on various armors. Shoot them and you can use them ón your grill! Later there`s a perk called sniper which makes every shot a critical hit IF you can make theluck roll ( your character has to have good luck ). Tip2: ----- To get some extra help you can get some triggerhappy friends . The first one is a bartender in Vault City , you`ll find him in the bar just outside the walls go talk to him and he`ll be really keen to follow you . In Broken Hills there`s a mutant called Marcus , he looks to be wearing a black leather armor and a quite big gun (a minigun) but to get him to help you you`ll have to frame the two humans who wants to get rid of the mutants and you`ll also have to fix their mine with some air-cleaning device , first then heŽll join you . Lenny is a Ghoul living in Gecko city you dont have to do anything just talk to him and be a part of your small army, he`s either in the first or the second house on the right side when you enter Gecko City . Vic the trader is a prisoner at the slavers guild in The Den free him and heŽll join you . Then there`s two mechanical dogs , the first one is located in NCR talk to the owner ( a doctor of somekind ) and he`ll give you a hypodermic need! le full of poison , he wants you to inject it into a mutant , after you`ve done that talk to him and you`ll be the owner of a mechanical doggie . The second one ( much better than the first one ) is located down in the navarro base ,tell whomever`s asking that you`re a recruit and go down with the "elevator"? inside one of the rooms there`s a doctor and an out of order dog , talk to the doctor and he`ll tell you some stuff that`s worth knowing and also that the room is sound isolated ( dumb mother€#%"! ) shoot him then go find the missing part for the dog its "upstairs" in the top left corner an engine or battery of some kind , when you`ve found that put it in the dog and he`s all yours. ---------- HexCheat 1 ---------- First, start a new game and choose a custom character. Save that characters blank sheet to whatever and edit it with a hex editor. After the line with zeros and a 19 theres a huge range of zeros. Change all those zeros to 20. This makes the character 300 at every attribute. Move on to the last 2 00s. Change this to 37 or 36 not sure. It will give u 36 things to add to ur strength intell, ect... make sure u have the right ammount because u have to use all of them. ---------- HexCheat 2 ---------- When you create a new character in Fallout2 spend the char points and save the character. The get the newly created ".gcd" file and open it with a hexeditor. Change the following lines to "0A" (for 10 - maximum possible here): Offset - Byteaddress - Type --------------------------- 0 - 8 - ST 10 - 2 - PE 10 - 6 - EN 10 - 10 - CH 20 - 4 - IN 20 - 8 - AG 30 - 2 - LK Voila, all you characteristics are on 10 and that increases the skills as well. Unlimited Money and Jet: ------------------------ In the Den, there is a thug named Joey. He will try to sell you the drug "Jet". Talk to him and he'll ask you for $500 a dose. When you first talk to him, have less than $500 in your inventory and say you'll buy it. He will say you don't have enough money and tell you not to buy it anywhere else. There will be an option that says "Wait, I'll buy it". Click on that and he'll say "You'll be coming back". Then say "Maybe". In your inventory, you will have the jet, without even paying for it. Here comes the best part! Go into his inventory by using the steal skill. He will have the $500 you were supposed to give him. You can then steal that money! You may do this as many times you wish for unlimited money and jet. Hints: ------ When generating a character, try to avoid reducing any stats below five except perhaps luck. Average is as low as you can safely go in such a combat- intensive game. To pick up the lucrative ability to skin geckos, make sure to talk to the trapper you rescue outside Kalmath when he gets back to town. Killing a president should always be done quietly. Walk up to him, get out of the conversation as quickly and politely as possible, and then inject him with eight super stimpacks. Waste ten minutes, and when you check the head fascist, he should be gone. Then you'll get his vital pass key.
