Fallout 2: Modding Guide

I made it. "Reinstalled" and seted maximum fps to 144 in Nvidia control panel. I don´t know why the game needed too much fps to run smoothly, especially on 60 Hz monitor, but nevermind.

I'm a Strait up computer "noob" but loved fallout 2 as a kid and want to play again, am just about to buy and install but would love to play these extra modifications people have made for it. Would it be hard to install and run these programs with extremely limited computer knowledge?

I brought a reconditioned HP probook 430 G5, i5-8250 @ 1.6Ghz, 8gb, intel(R) UHD Graphics 620, 256GB NVMe, win 10 pro

Is this laptop good enough to run moded fallout ?

[Magus]

More than enough.

Hi, I would love to add an Ecco Mod along side ones you already mention. Haven't played F2 for like 10 years and I am really exited that so many cool things were created, so obviously I would love to install them all at once to play thru the game.
Do you know if its gonna worka together and is there any specific order when i should install Ecco?? 

[Magus]

@Gore You can install it after RPU.

Check out Speed options in ddraw.ini, and also ProcessorIdle.

Please, I still didn´t make it. I don´t know why is game so laggy at 60 fps, and need to raise fps cap from nvidia control panel for example to 240 and turn vsync off every time I wan´t to play F2. It's disturbing . At which fps you play it? Thank you.

[Magus]

It's probably something to do with drivers or driver settings.
Maybe also try different DirectX/DirectDraw settings in ddraw.ini.

Ah, my fault. Keeping the game up to date (rpu_v2.4.32) did the trick.
