Fallout is a role-playing open world video game.

Making it work

German version should work, english works as well with the same tweaks. Others probably too? CHANGEME

Install

If installation complains about missing diskspace use the freesize parameter:

mount c /your-dos-dir -freesize 999

Sound

Sound problems can be solved by deactivating the Gravis Ultrasound emulation and then using the auto-detection to locate the soundblaster.

gus=false

Stability

To make the game more stable (and to get rid of a save-at-map-end bug) you can try to increase the amount of memory.

memsize=128 #for example

Speed

The game seems to run quite slowly with output=surface. Try output=overlay.

EDIT: I'm using output=overlay successfully. output=surface makes it slow.

If you require support for general issues, see the performance guide and FAQ.
