What this mod is about:
This mod reminds me a bit of a zombie shooter game. But, since this is Fallout 2 you shoot ghouls in graveyard-looking dark maps. To add a bit more to difficulty and feeling, there are no shops and no heavy or laser guns to be found. You pretty much go around with sawed off shotgun, desert eagle and sub machine gun. There are lot of hidden weapon and ammo stashes and lot of random spawning items in boxes. If one box was empty, the second one does not have to be. It's totally random what’s going to be in them. Sometimes it can seem that game is impossible, but trust me its tested and you are fully able to survive. So if you get killed a lot it just means you are missing something or doing something wrong.

Some things to think about:
If you step on an exit grid that is supposed to take you from one map to another and nothing happens, just walk around on it. They are not bugged, they just work on one spot, which does not really matter since they are not so big. Ghouls do drop ammo now and then, even if it might seem sometimes that none of them do. Search around on maps and always open all boxes you find, it will make the game easier, concerning the ammo shortage. If constant darkness annoys you pick perk night sight and problem will be less annoying. Ghouls will only attack you if they see you, or if a ghoul next to them saw you, so if you do not want to get attacked hide behind trees and gravestones.

Installation:
The Patch000 file contains all changes that you need to play the mod. It should be placed in your Fallout 2 folder so it looks, for example, like this: C:/fallout2/patch000 than you are ready to play. Also, if you get tired of this mod or just simply dont like it, all you have to do is remove file patch000 from fallout 2 folder and game turns back to regular fallout 2. Also you must have the official Fallout 2 patch installed for this to work.

Encounters are lvl based. At the start, you will meet only rats and scorpions unless you enter caves which i advise players to do to gain those first low levels faster. The higher level now means the higher amount of harder encounters.

Things to think about:
This mod contains only 5 towns, 4 shops and home all regular towns are removed. Every time you enter the shop map it will refresh, so dont leave anything you plan to keep in it. Home is the place to unload and store your valuables, hence it will be saved when you leave the map. Random Encounters on world map may show innacurate description.

What this mod is about:
The Enclave made some failed experiment while developing a new type of A-bomb, blasting everything into oblivion. So basically the game is about going around in true wasteland with fresh encounter tables. Collecting all kinds of junk to sell it and afford to buy ammo and weapons. This mod has no ending, its eternal walking around in wasteland leveling up. And this wasteland is a lot less populated making it much harder to get rich fast or use any kind of spoilers that where already in the game. If you are a fan of quests, this is nothing for you. But if you love wasteland feeling and harder gameplay, then you should give it a try.

Features:
13 custom locations, custom weapons, custom missions, dialogs and more. This is not an add-on, it is a campaign on its own.

Installation: backup your Fallout 2.exe and "fallout 2/data" folder and replace them with the ones that come with this mod, and you're ready to go. Also if patch000 file exists in your folder rename it to something else or move it to another folder. We are aware that there might be some minor bugs in the mod and we will fix those if we ever make an update for this mod.

What this mod is about: In this mod you are not the chosen or vault dweller, but a simple mercenary warrior that goes around in the wasteland looking for missions and jobs. All missions and jobs are redoable and are intended to be done several times. If you come to a town and nobody seems to be willing to talk to you that means you're not high enough level to get that mission. Then usually they will tell you to get bent or come back when your better in various ways.

Note:
This is an expansion for Haris and Miran's Fallout 2 Wasteland merc mod. That means that you must have the original Wasteland merc mod installed in to your Fallout 2 game for this to work. We chose to do it this way so that you don´t have to download the entire mod all over again. However, you are required to start a new character for this to work. Your save file might still work but new location won't show up.

Features: One new location called 'Black Market'. It was added to balance out the game's economy. We realized that later on in the mod players would get big amounts of bottlecaps and not have anything to waste them on, it would become totally useless to do missions. Now you can buy crafting resources and drugs that will advance your character. Also there is a shopkeeper in this location that will be able to buy excess items that you have no use of. We also fixed a couple of bugs. One of them is nerfing encounter table a bit and making outdoorsman skill useful when traveling again so that it isn’t so hard to travel if you chose to raise outdoorsman. There will still be a lot of encounters, but not like it was. We also made it impossible to steal or loot shopkeepers.

There are still some minor bugs left in like pipboy showing normal game quests. But we don´t feel that it is effecting the gameplay what so ever.

Installation:
Take folders "scripts", "data", "maps" and "text" that come in this zip file and place then in Fallout2/data folder and override the existing folders. Remember that it requires original wasteland merc mod to work.
