I'm making Fallout Van Buren and I have some questions
JovankaB:
The game and tools work on XP for me. I don't remember if I had to do something special to make it work, but it's definitely possible.

Nothing like this really exists. You can ask questions on this forum, auto-translate Russian docs and learn by studying existing scripts and other files. Ease of learning is not exactly the best selling point of this engine.

There could be many reasons, on my old Windows XP it works reasonably well. Try changing "Fixed FPS" option to 100. If you have 100, try a small negative number, like -10.

I might be wrong, because I never really looked into it, but I don't think the main menu of FOnline is scriptable. Maybe it's possible with some dll magick, I don't know.
What you can do for sure, is changing layout of the menu and implementing screens in game. So you could hide the options button in menu (because it doesn't work anyway) and implement options screen in the game. Or make external application like FOConfig.

Hiding button doesn't sound quite right to me; better to create gui button element from scripts, with exactly same size at exactly same position with same graphic. Catch mouseclick, so it won't go back to engine, and display own screen. IIRC FOnline2 was doing that, in same manner 2238 "Online" button on character screen was added.
All position/size/picture data is already in interface .ini, so there's no need for creating server-specific properties, or even worse - hiding it all in scripts :)

Thanks to everybody for help! I managed to install .NET 4 and now the tools are working. I'm gonna try them out now. :D

Does anyone know of any good critter artists for Fallout? I'm looking for someone who can create new monsters.

Could this interface be created in FOnline engine?
