January 3, 200620 yr I started playing this again today (out of boredom). Is there anyway to get it to play in a window?
January 3, 200620 yr Short answer, NO! Not that it's impossible, just that to be able to do it... would require alot of effort. "I'm a programmer at a games company... REET GOOD!" - Me
January 3, 200620 yr Author Why would someone want to <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mainly because I want quick access to winamp. Fallout 2 music, well... It sort of sucks.

January 3, 200620 yr I started playing this again today (out of boredom). Is there anyway to get it to play in a window? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OK. Set up the second PC and connect via Remote Desktop to the first (where you have Fallout) and run the game. You can now make your Remote Desktop connection be windowed and Fallout will actually run fullscreen on the 1st machine. :D :D :D

January 3, 200620 yr I definently think so too, btw. Would you know where I could get that music? I dont have any program that can read .ACM files.

January 3, 200620 yr Theres a plugin for winamp that will let it play the acm songs. The soundtrack was also released on the interplay website and may still be available for download on some fallout sites. You could also get acm2wav, convert the files in your directory and listen to them.
January 3, 200620 yr Author Fallout 2 has wonderful music. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I disagree. I was good the first time I played through it... It was rather forgettable though, and it really doesn't cut it this time around.
January 3, 200620 yr FO2 had music? - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
January 3, 200620 yr Author FO2 had music? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It had a bunch of ambience.... I guess that's what they refer to as "Music"
January 3, 200620 yr I'd suggest you patch fallout 2 with the latest patch in the no mutants allowed "fallout modding" subforum sticky tread. Wow. Bad phrase. Edit: Easier to link actually. fallout 2 patch Edited January 3, 200620 yr by Serious Callers Only
January 3, 200620 yr Philistines!! FO 1&2 had wonderful music... I can stil hear the "Do-do do-do... Do-do do-do" i my head and it makes me happy and warm inside DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner.

January 3, 200620 yr Great ambient music, sometimes chilling and spooky. Mark Morgan is the one to blame for the great score Fallout had.
January 3, 200620 yr FO series had great theme songs; but otherwise the music while good was unmemorable. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
January 3, 200620 yr Guess it's the way I'm wired but I still can remember quite a few of the game's music.
January 4, 200620 yr I loved the map music. And Vault City. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
