It adds a new set of options on the main game screen and you'll be able to change the resolution there.
There is another option, however, namely the Fallout 1 High Resolution Patch 2.2b. Higher resolutions worked in windowed mode, but then the performance was sluggish.
This one didn't work well for me, when I tried to run the game in a higher resolution in fullscreen it would crash. It's a modification that will allow you to run Fallout through DirectX 9 instead of DirectDraw, letting you to change the resolution and scale the graphics through the use of some scaling filters (known from console emulators, such as ZSNES). You should get something called Sfall with the community patch. Just unpack it to the folder where you have the game installed overwriting any files it asks you about.īecause we're on a modern machine, it would be good if the game could look a little bit better. That is why it's great to have a vibrant community and Fallout always had that (and still has)! Modders have released several unofficial patches to the game, so go to No Mutants Allowed and grab the newest one you can find that suits your version of the game (usually 1.3.4). The latest official version of the game is 1.2, which sadly still has bugs. So instead of letting the autorun program deal with the installation, close it and start the installer manually by running it as administrator. Run the installer with administrative privileges. It's best if you disable the antivirus for the duration of game installation. My copy of the game is legitimate and bought in a game shop from official distribution, so this is a false alarm (I hope! :P). I am using NOD32, but I saw other users report the same issue with different antivirus solutions. Instead I decided to give it a try on my own again and here's what I came up with.įirst of all, for some people your antivirus software may complain about trojans and other nasty things in some executables on the DVD. Shadur's answer is OK if you don't own the games already, but I do, so I didn't want to re-purchase them. I asked this question, because I remember when I tried to run this game on Windows 7 a year ago or so and failed, if I remember correctly I was getting a black screen.Īfter completing Fallout: New Vegas earlier this year I felt an enormous urge to sink in the post-apocalyptic world again and decided to finally finish Fallout 1 & 2 (I have played both when they came out, but I was a different type of gamer back then and never finished either), however remembering the issues I faced previously I figured I'd ask first.
