Fallout 2 Steam Not For Mac

Forums: Index Fallout and Fallout 2 general discussion Fallout 1 and 2 for Mac help. Hey everyone. I'm assuming most of the people who have played Fallout 1 and 2 have PCs. However, I just discovered that Fallout 1 and 2 is available for Mac (which I have). But after doing some researching I.

I've encountered the same problem but here's how I fixed it. 1) You will need to play the game on fullscreen windowed mode to do this go to the games files and open the program 'f2_res_Config'.

Once it's opened be sure that windowd is ticked than press the button 'manually edit config' Then find 'WINDOWED_FULLSCREEN=0' change the 0 into a 1 than save and exit the text file. Afterwards the game should work if not the here's another way. 2) Open the program 'f2_res_Config' and change the graphic mode from dirext X9 to basic and untick windowed and the game should run. (Keep in mind that this will make the game run really slow afterwards) Well those are my ways of fixing it I hope these where helpful to you!

I got in, I can see now, and after the opening cinematic, I get to the main menu.

I can see my mouse cursor, but when I hover over the options, I can't do anything. EDIT: Nevermind.

Figured it out. Just using the keys ('n' for New Game, etc.) works. Mouse also works after I restarted game.

Contents [] Fallout Tactics on Windows Vista/7 Windows Vista uses functionality called UAC (User Account Control) which, among other things, scans executable files before launching them. This may cause the installer to be launched after a long delay, depending on its size (sometimes many minutes). You can bypass or disable UAC for the duration of the installation process to bypass this delay. It is generally advisable to disable UAC altogether, as it is known to cause problems in some software, especially games, both old and new.

To disable UAC: On Windows Vista, go to Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety -> User Accounts, click 'Turn User Account Control on or off', uncheck the option called 'Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect my computer' and click OK. On Windows 7, go to Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety -> User Accounts, click 'Change User Account Control settings', move the slider to the lowest position ('Never notify') and click OK. You could also try launching the installer by right-clicking the setup file and selecting 'Run as Administrator'. Finally, if your installer is divided into multiple files, make sure that you're trying to open the executable file (with an.exe extension and an orange icon) rather than a.bin file. The.bin files aren't disc image files, but archives used by the executable file.

Both Windows Vista and Windows 7 have built-in compatibility tools for such games, but to invoke compatibility mode there should be information about specific exe-file in the corresponding part of the registry. DirectDraw Compatibility Tool allows to completely automate process of compatibility rules creation. DirectDraw Compatibility Tool has two operation modes: • create compatibility rules for a given game • save compatibility rules to the reg-file. 'Apply' button allows automatic creation of the compatibility rule. When the field 'Pathname of the target exe-file' contains desired game, it will be analyzed and the corresponding rule will be formed. If problems were caused by incompatibility on DirectDraw level, they should cease immediately after rule creation.
