Does anyone know if the games in Fallout Collection are UK version, or are they already patched or unpatched with patches included? I don't know if I should buy Fallout Colletion or wait for buying Fallout Trilogy (is it US original unpatched version?) --[[User:NovaRain|NovaRain]] 02:08, 20 April 2009 (UTC)

::Yeah, it's not too hard, I was just curious =) And by the way, do you think we should create a page for "Bittercup Runneth Over" (unmarked quest)?

Js, you definitely deserve this userbox. If it was not for you, this wiki would have died because of the split. I give you this because you are the most important user we have in here and I hope you're going to stay here for a long time, and we really need more people as dedicated as you are. {{Userbox|bg=#EEEEFF|left bg=#CCCCFF|left image=Pigeon_approved!.png|text=This user is very pigeon approved}}
I got my Fallout Trilogy and installed it today (Woot ^^) but it only lets me play Fallout 2. Anyone else have this problem/know how to fix it?
 
:I have this disc, but I can't play Tactics, as it says I need the Tactics disc in to play it. Of course the Trilogy is a different disc, so I can only play 1 and 2. [[User:RudiganRex|RudiganRex]] 07:01, September 21, 2009 (UTC)

I think the White Label Collection (The one you can buy in the UK) uses the US version of the games because it has Children in it. Beware btw, as on some batches, the fallout tactics disks are corrupted.

Yup, pretty snazzy. I wish I could afford the luxury of buying all the add-ons for PC, but it's a bit pricey. I appreciate the time you took making the models; thanks buddy. --[[User:Kastera1000|Kastera]] <sup>[[User talk:Kastera1000|(talk)]]</sup> 03:30, August 17, 2012 (UTC)

Can anyone confirm if the non-White Label European releases are cencored or not? I have been thinking of buying the collection from somewhere in Europe, but only IF it is not cencored - then I'll have to get it from the states. [[User:VonVince|VonVince]] 00:31, May 11, 2010 (UTC)
 
:The non-white label collection I picked up on amazon UK is quite strange. Fallout 1 is alows max violence but has no children present, whereas Fallout 2 allows max violence and has children. I haven't added any patches to the game so I don't know why it includes kids in one game and not in the other. As for tactics i'd love to tell you what it's like, but unfortunately I can't play it, and cracking it is proving to be problematic. Hope this helps.--[[User:GreyMullen|GreyMullen]] 20:33, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

== Patroller Application ==
I'm just bought this game from the store and am trying to get it to work on my brand new Windows 7 laptop. Unfortunately, Fallout 1 has issues where everything looks like it is covered in not-so-pretty rainbows (haven't even tried Fallout 2 yet). Apparently, this is a rather widespread problem, but every solution people have suggested (short of downloading patches) seems to work for everyone but me. I clicked on the link given to download the patch (nma-forums or something to that extent) but my anti-virus starts screaming at me that the site is dangerous and probably brimming with cyber-AIDS or something. Attempting to even play the game for a couple minutes just for the hell of it caused it to crash (that may have been a fluke, I don't know).
 
   
  +
Hey Jspoel! I'd like to apply for the position of patroller and these are the reasons why...I've been active on this wiki for 3 months while the requirement is only 1, I have 300 edits on articles (the requirement is only 250), and I have a major contribution to the site as in creating and helping maintain the page [[Edward Rutledge]] on behalf of the Logical History project. I have a deep understanding of the notable loot guidelines, supported by many of my edits, and of assorted wiki guidelines like the capitalization policy. I also pride myself on almost always including an edit summary on any edit revisions, a quality even some admin's lack. And finally, one of my most frequented time slots (11PM-1AM EST) is often without users with rollback. Thanks for any consideration!

Is there any way to get these games (at least Fallouts 1 and 2) to play on a Windows 7 laptop? If there is a patch to download, is there any place I could download it that is safe and reliable?[[User:Son of God-Enel|Son of God-Enel]] 17:33, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 
:NMA is very safe. You could also try Atomic Gamer, if you don't trust NMA. Those patches will make it work; the Sfall in the latest release of the Restoration Project will too. Change the colors from 8 to 16 bit in the Sfall menu. [[User:Nitpicker of the Wastes|Nitty]] <sup>[[User talk:Nitpicker of the Wastes|Tok.]]</sup> 17:35, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

:Thanks, but unfortunately, the high resolution patch that everyone says will magically fix the game did absolutely nothing. Not only that, but I've confirmed that the game crashes every time the Vault Dweller takes a hit, making the small rat just outside the door to Vault 13 the most powerful adversary I've ever faced. Is there a specific page or link that has something I can use to fix the game completely? I just bought this game from Gamestop and it's really annoying that it can't just work properly.[[User:Son of God-Enel|Son of God-Enel]] 19:04, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hi! I'm having trouble with this page [[Caravan guard (Fallout: New Vegas)]]. There's 6 different NPCs by this name (look for 0015e48e in the GECK), and all of them have different stats. Stats which currently on the page is a mixture of [[Rose of Sharon Cassidy]] and some other unknown ingridients! So i can't decide, either place 6 sets of stats on the page either blank the infobox. Can i have your ruling on this? --[[User:Theodorico|Theodorico]] ([[User talk:Theodorico|talk]]) 01:56, August 18, 2012 (UTC)

Unluckily, everything is much more complicated. "Real" NPC is the "LvlCrimsonCaravanGuard" (formid 0015e48a) which inherits all properties form it's Actor Base, which is LVLN "VarCrimsonCaravanGuard" (formid 0015e48e), which contains 6 possible candidates: "CrimsonCaravanGuardAAMTemplate" (000ed4d1), "CrimsonCaravanGuardAAF", ..., "CrimsonCaravanGuardHF". Short version: Real guards are being selected from the list and can be ANY of them, and "CrimsonCaravanGuardAAMTemplate" (000ed4d1) is only one of possibilities. --[[User:Theodorico|Theodorico]] ([[User talk:Theodorico|talk]]) 03:59, August 18, 2012 (UTC)
