Fallout 2 unofficial patch compatibility

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 3:11 am

So, I'm not technically adept with these, so if someone who knows could give an idea how do I get the UOP for Fallout 2 to work under Win 7 (64bit) I'd very much appreciate it.

Situation is:

I have the GOG version. Runs fine and smooth on it's own.

I install the UOP. No problems.

I start the game after UOP installation and it locks up and states that "Fallout 2 appears to run in compatibility mode" and nothing is to be done but shut it down.
I've tried changing the compatibily modes from the Fallout 2.exe properties, I've tried to reinstall both the game and the patch for numerous times, and it's the same message every time.

And the exact same thing happens with Killaps restoration project.

Any ideas from peeps who know about how to handle these things?

Ah, jeez. Do you have an account at NMA? Best thing to do is post in the Killap thread in their modding forum. I JUST re-installed FO2 with the latest Kilap patch without any problems but I do know what you're describing has happened to me before and they've been able to help me through it. Sorry my mind ain't what it used to be and I cannot personally remember what that particular solution was. Just rest assured there IS a solution.
