Fallout Cheats

Create a shortcut to the game on the Windows 95/98 desktop. Then, use the Settings/Control Panel/Display/Effects options to turn on "Large icons". Then, the desktop icon for the game will turn into a new graphic.

Your character can hold infinitely more than his maximum
carry weight by trading with someone. The game doesn't check to
see if you can carry what you are buying. For example, a character
can have the minigun, the flame thrower, rocket launcher, plasma
rifle, .233 pistol, as well as lots of heavy ammo. If you have
a problem where you need to pick something up from the game world,
you can give everything except your money and other light things
to Ian, then pick up the item. You can get all your items back,
thanks to both the "Barter" and "Weight" glitches.
Unfortunately the NPC fails to realize that the items are yours
and that you just gave them to him to hold.

Bring an NPC through the mutant vats from the watershed mutant in Necropolis. Load him up with your weapons, armor, stimpacks (save 5-10 in your inventory), and ammo, but do not bring everything. When Harry takes you to the vats and the torture begins, use the stimpacks in inventory to heal in between the torture sessions. Take your items back from the NPC after returning to your room.
