Fallout 1 US Retail on Win7 64bit colours etc.

Post » Fri Sep 06, 2013 9:43 pm

i just got it in my mail, the first edition full uncut i guess from the states, sadly only the case with cd and artwork, the box version is too expensive if found :(

didnt want the cut gog.com edition!

i could run the installer the colours were strange though, when fully installed i ran the game and the videos still have a strange colour.....
any ideas how to fix?

and what else do you recommend? i think i will play the game unaltered to know how the devs wanted us to have it played?

how hard is the game if turned to hard mode?

To run Fallout 1 on modern hardware, you need to patch the game to make the graphics work properly. I placed a link to a high resolution patch below.

Install ^that high resolution patch, in the game menu, go to screen preference, and make suke to change the colors to 32-bit.
