Post install - Runs regular fallout 2

[dennissherb]

After installing (on linux) via undat.sh & undat.exe (I tried both) and running Fallout1In2/Fallout2.exe using wine runs the regular Fallout 2 game (intro and game start is the same as Fallout 2)

Tried multiple install locations with steam on both flatpak and dnf

Since you didn't mention how you run the game:
https://github.com/rotators/Fo1in2/blob/master/Fallout2/Fallout1in2/README.md#mod-installation

When using Linux with Wine, if there are issues running the game correctly, set the *.dll override priorities in Wine: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n,b" wine Fallout2.exe

Running the game using these arguments causes the game to be extremely slow. Should I open it as another issue?

Maybe check this past issue first?

It seems that the issue is that wine attempts to run the game using nouveau instead of nvidia drivers which are installed and working, this happens on both wayland and X11

If I may enter this thread (I believe my issue is related), I managed to fix the issue with FO2 starting instead of FO1, but I need to go through the (un)installer:

1. Run env WINEPREFIX="/opt/Fallout" WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b" wine uninstaller
2. Click "Install..."
3. Select "Fallout2.exe" in the "Fallout1in2" folder
4. Fallout 1 runs perfectly (and in my case, without lags)

But it's annoying that I have to go through the installer. I tried running:

env WINEPREFIX="/opt/Fallout" WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw=n,b" wine "/opt/Fallout/drive_c/Program Files/Interplay/Fallout2/Fallout1in2/Fallout2.exe"

but it seems like the WINEDLLOVERRIDES part is being ignore since this boots Fallout 2.

Any clue what I need to modify?

The SCALING X2 option is buggy under Proton and you need to disable it to make it work properly on Wine, you also need to fallback to the original ddraw renderer and use the sfall implementation of Hi-Res to fix the framerate issue, sadly the Fallout Community Edition and its forks doesn't support all of sfall features yet (the DirectX 9 renderer mode has a unusually high GPU usage, which is not convenient for handheld devices like the Steam Deck for example).

If you use a high resolution display you will need to lower the display resolution to avoid the small UI issue, Lutris as a launch option to assist you with that, I don't know it if works under Wayland though, if your GPU supports Wayland you can also try to run Fallout under Gamescope.

same issue in debian 13 wine 10 i installed q4wine and set the parm "ddraw=n,b" for an ddl override for a icon and it runs great now.
i could not get undat.exe or sh to run. ill make a issue for that

I installed the game following the instructions normally with the UNDAT.exe. Opening the game, the Fallout 1 opening video plays with Maybe but then the opening monologue of Fallout 2 plays and the rest of the game is Fallout 2 despite the character creator being Fallout 1 as well.
