Thanks alot for the info, I will certainly look into getting that patch, as I AM running it on a modern system. This is not an add-on, it is a campaign all its own. I also recommend using the Fallout 2 high resolution patch. Features: 19 new locations, custom weapons, missions, dialogs and more. If you play Fallout 2 on a modern machine, you should install sfall anyway. Set to -3 to remove the time limit, automatically reset the date, but override fallouts GetDate function to return the correct year.The game will lock up on 8th of March 2255 Set to -2 to remove the time limit without resetting the date.Set to -1 to remove the time limit, and automatically reset the date back to 2241 each time you would have reached it.Set to 0 if you want to die the instant you leave arroyo.Regarding the time limit there a few options, I will quote them here (everything sfall related is configured in a file called 'ddraw.ini'): sfall is a 'engine tweak' and incorporates countless fixes and features for Fallout 2. Is there anyway around this at all? Thanks. I never did like this, and am finally tired of dealing with it. SergeantDornan: I was just wondering if there is anyway at all to bypass the damned 14 year time-limit in this game? I mean, I beat the game and just want to chill, guard caravans and have some fun exploring, but after 14 years, game over.
