Best mods for Fallout Tactics?

[roshan]

I've been thinking of playing Fallout Tactics again. What are the best mods for it? I think there's one that makes it a more Fallout-y open world style game?

I think the mod you mean is unfinished. There really aren't that many mods for this game let alone the ones i would recommend. I also used to play the game with some "overhaul\cut content" mod called Redux that i ended up deleting for having too many cringy changes to things that never needed them, so i just switched to unmodded game.

You can try this one, seems cool enough https://www.moddb.com/mods/enclave-mod

Awaken mod is alright. It's a total conversion that tries to emulate Fallout and make Tactics more of an RPG than a tactical game. Given the limitations of the engine (particularly dialogues) it only partially succeeds but it's worth a try.

Fallout Enclave have some nice ideas, but it's unfinished. Most works was put in the first mission (prison escape) then less and less for the rest...

Has anyone tried "The Sum"?
It's not a new mod, but I saw it covered on Warlockracy' youtube channel (https://youtu.be/k433iBVN8CQ?si=sjZ_s2IPq_FKbI2B), and it looks intriguing, original, if very janky.

I would wait a bit more, the dev said the next big release is in beta testing and will come out "soon".

Anyway, it's a very interesting game. The idea is to just live the life of a person in the post-apocalypse. You're not supposed to explore everything, min-max, save-scumm or anything, just accept the stories that emerge. For example, one of the playable characters is a father with a sick child. The kid wants to see the ocean, so I take him there, he dies, I decide to live the last of my days in a nearby town. The end.

I don't use mods. Just made it 1.27 (I think), and messed with the existing missions and weapons to make it more challenging for myself turn-based.

The only two mods that I have looked at is equilibrium and redux, but that was years ago. I remember that one of them (redux, I think) had an overpowered .50cal sniper rifle and I immediately skipped it. Given my style of play (stealth sniper), it would be far too unbalanced. I just took the interesting new random encounters and replaced the useless ones in the base game (things like Mir, Reaver Dance, etc.) with them. The other one is basically a revamp of all the weapons and armour, which I do myself anyway, so I never bothered.

I installed the updated version from NMA - it doesn't work. Cannot create BOS process error. Any idea how I can fix this?

VERY janky, but most definitely a very interesting mod to play

Just the fact that it's a state funded anarchist mod is funny enough to give it a try
