Using a holodisk
Using a holodisk is a useful way to find items in Fallout 1. These items are useful for many purposes, from locating items to helping you spawn specific items. Holodisks and notes are also useful for the game’s spawn system. Here’s how to use them:
Recording mode
In Fallout 1, the Recording mode for the holod disk lets you record gameplay as if you were the narrator. Once you have recorded a scene, you can play it back whenever you want. Unlike the game’s normal recording mode, this recording mode is not affected by the difficulty level of the scene. It will be saved in a directory named “selfrun” in your game folder. The recorded material can be played back later by clicking on the video files.
Time limit
If you are in the middle of a quest and need to use the holodisk, the game will tell you that there’s a limited amount of time left to finish it. The time limit will vary based on your level, but you’ll want to know as much as possible beforehand to ensure you don’t accidentally run out of time. In Fallout 1, you have the option of using the holodisk to transfer information to your PipBoy. It will also let you know how much time you have left to save and load your game, so be sure to know how much time you have before the deadline!
Tricking mutant guards
In Fallout 1, a common method of tricking mutant guards involves using a radio to sway them to follow you. This is a particularly effective method of getting out of the ‘City of Skulls’ without being detected. After a successful radio trick, you will be rewarded with 1500 xp, frontal assault, and a holodisk containing the entrance code. You should remember that if you do not have one of these items, you will be unable to unlock the door unless you have a high skill level, and a radio.
