Fo1in2 VS Fallout2_Restoration_Project

Fallout - Install Fallout Et Tu or the open source re-implementation project for a better experience.

You will want to use et tu for Fallout 1 and Restoration Project for Fallout 2 as they both include a bunch of bug fixes.

You can just use this.

FO 1 with this is a far better experience than with Fixt.

Play FO1 modded with this.

I suspect in time it will come: https://github.com/rotators/Fo1in2

Fallout ET TU - Play Fallout 1 in the Fallout 2 engine.

Fallout Et Tu: https://github.com/rotators/Fo1in2 More up to date than Fixit, and it basically takes the first Fallout and puts it into the Fallout 2 engine, meaning I'm pretty sure you need to have Fallout 2 installed. Also includes a lot of QOL features. Pretty sure it restores the good endings for the Hub and Followers. Companions can definitely wear armor and you can play after the ending. I prefer Fixit though because Fallout Et Tu makes too many changes such as adding a motorcycle for the player, new encounters, Fallout 2 creatures, weapon upgrades, etc.

For those who want to play Fallout 1, there is a port of Fallout to the Fallout 2 engine called Fallout et tu (https://github.com/rotators/Fo1in2). It brings quality of life improvements, bug fixes and stability.

Updated restoration project link in case anyone wants to give it a try. Also the talking heads mod on nexus is very good

Here's a link to the currently updated version: https://github.com/BGforgeNet/Fallout2_Restoration_Project

Fallout 2 - Install Sfall or the open source re-implementation for a better experience. Install the Restoration patch if you want additional content.

You will want to use et tu for Fallout 1 and Restoration Project for Fallout 2 as they both include a bunch of bug fixes.

For Fallout 2: For Both I suggest either Restoration Project Updated*, or updating Sfall. Sfall features a lot of QoL features (that you can toggle), such as quicksaving to individual save-slots, and a bunch more save-pages. In Fallout 2(and to an extend Fallout 1) you really shouldn't save in the same slots, as save corruption is not an unkown issue.

For fallout 1 use fixt: https://www.nma-fallout.com/resources/fallout-fixt-full-all-fixes-and-mods.8/ and for fallout 2 use Restoration project updated: https://github.com/BGforgeNet/Fallout2_Restoration_Project both mods will (probably) make your save files uncompatible with the game, so you will need to start from zero, I'd recommend reading through both pages. Both mods have a custom instalation which you can select which of the contents you want installed since it also restores cut content, some people don't like those so it's up to you. Also both mods come with sfall, while holding left shift you'll be able to highlight items in the ground and containers, pretty handy

Fallout 2 Restoration Project - This is an updated fork of the original Fallout 2 Restoration Project.

https://github.com/BGforgeNet/Fallout2_Restoration_Project is all youll need for f2. Its still getting consistent updates too so its ongoing support for the game is wonderful. If you ever planning to go back to play f1 again id recommend grabing fallout et tu. It puts fallout 1 in fallout 2's engine which has significantly less bugs. I also recommend gamerpoets guide on installing fallout et tu as it recommends some tweaks that are very good improvements.

I suggest playing the first one with Fixt and the second one with the Restoration Project. Have fun!

and here is a link to the most up to date restoration patch.
