FOT won't start up properly.

I can't get Fallout Tactics to start up correctly and was hoping somebody could help.

Yes. Open your files, go to "core", and select the "bos.cfg" file, and change your resolution to height 600 and width 800. Then go back to your main Fallout Tactics folder, and launch "BOS_HR.exe" and go to video settings and go to video and press "default settings".

had same problem, tried the above edits to the bos.cfg file but with no luck. i noticed comments from another post here (in spanish) - it mentioned the height/width edits but also the {display.bpp} = {32} line (also in the bos.cfg file) - my value in that file was defaulted ato "16", so i edited it to 32 and set resolution to 800x600 and it booted great at fullscreen (on a 65" Samsung), also booted at 1920x1080, but was condensed/windowed style display - it worked for me so thought would add here (didnt work without 32 edit - others may run into as well) . have had game for quite a long time, first time finally getting it running. yeah!

Actually you only need to change {display.bpp} = {32} and it works!

Older, non-steam version Ft BoS (in PL was sold by CD Project) works propertly even on win10 in full screen mode (and polish ver. has full dubbing), so I don't know why steam version is broken & only in english...

Thanks a lot, bruh! This worked for me and I'd been thinking I'd never get to play BoS!
