FOnline Development > Questions and Answers
I'm making Fallout Van Buren and I have some questions
hexer:
Hi, I've been busy making Van Buren in Fallout 2 engine ( http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?threads/fallout-3-van-buren-spoilers.88296/ ) and I'm considering to use FOnline engine for it.
I have some questions:
- I have Win XP and FOnline tools work only on Vista or newer Windows. I don't have the means to get a better computer. Since I'm the main developer, this is a BIG issue. Can I run them somehow on Win XP?
- I can't read Russian and most of the documentation is written in Russian language. Is there any documentation or tutorials in English?
- Ambient lighting is nice but makes the art look washed out. Can I prevent this?
- The game runs slowly (but this could be because of my old laptop with Win XP)
- GUI sometimes behaves strangely - I press ESC and the game quits immediately, there's no prompt window. Can I prevent this?
- Options screen isn't implemented yet. Can I implement it myself?

Works fine on XP, not sure why you can't work with it. I use sdk on XP and 7.

Russian documentation is for FOnline: TLA but well, FOnline: 2238 is the same so... uhmm google translate? I'm not sure if this documentation is too old. There are any other documentation and tutorials except mapper tutorial (for TLA mapper but 2238 mapper is the same). You should ask other people, who know FOnline engine.

Yes, you need to better hardware and use FOnline.exe instead of FOnlineGL (FOnlineGL was "work in progress" I think).

.NET version which is required by the tools won't install on Win XP only on Vista or newer. I'm not sure how you got it running unless it's an older SDK version.

Thanks but that is not what I need at the moment. It's a tutorial for administrating an online server game.
John Porno:
we had a problem with winxp compatibility which was due to lacking visual studio 2012 compatibility but an upgrade fixed it. Basicaly, people running winxp coulnt connect to the server. In any case, while I dont know any technicals details, I'd be surprised if fonline tools would not work under xp.
