📋 About This Mod
DISCLAIMER: This patch will NOT receive support from the teams behind Fallout New California nor Tale of Two Wastelands. Mod at your own risk. If you experience any issues with either FNC or TTW, do not bother their authors about those issues. If you are using this patch, you likely waive your ability to ask for their technical support. ALL issues with this patch should be directed to this page. Nowhere else. This patch is FULLY compatible with both Fallout New California AND Tale of Two Wastelands. If someone told you otherwise, they LIED to you.
Spoiler Warning: This mod, this page, and the images on them will spoil the events of Fallout New Vegas, Fallout New California, and Fallout 3.
NOW ALSO AVAILABLE IN RUSSIAN!
The Idea
We wanted to patch Fallout New California (FNC) and Tale of Two Wastelands (TTW) so that we could combine all three games. Pretty simple goal really. We wanted as much Fallout in one game as we could possibly get. Some people said it was impossible. Some, for technical reasons. Some, for lore reasons. Well, we did it anyway. We've tested this mod quite a bit, but combining three huge games like this means our tests are surely inadequate. We don't have plans on adding more features, but please let us know if there's game-breaking bugs. Also, using this mod with a prior save could be catastrophic for all we know. Best do it with a new game. Anyone is free to add onto this themselves as detailed in the permissions section.
The Installation
2024 Note: Many people have struggled with these instructions over the years. The gist is that you need to install TTW like you normally would, and you install FNC to a dummy folder so that you can then package FNC's content and install it like a normal mod. Then you simply install this mod. Remember to check that the start quest in your ini file is the Fallout 3 one! Also remember to have NVAC and no experience modifying mods!
The patch was made for the latest Tale of Two Wastelands (version 3. 2. 2) and what was the current Fallout New California (version 231). However, our tests indicate this patch shouldn't have any issues with the latest version of FNC (version 2. 3. 1). Ideally, any newer versions that are released won't change any of the things we modified, but we cannot be certain of that, of course. Other versions of FNC or TTW might work, might not. Read the instructions below for installation.
1. Install TTW 3. 2 as per their normal instructions. Follow the instructions on their site, whether you are installing the mod manually or through a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2. <
This patch merges Fallout New California (version 231) with Tale of Two Wastelands (versions 3.2.2 and 3.3), letting players experience three games in one. It's a niche compatibility fix for modders who want to combine these major overhauls. With 493 endorsements and 22,793 downloads, it's a proven solution for a specific setup.
