Fallout 2 CE changelog
build-20 (pre-release) · Oct 15, 2026
A complete Fallout 2 CE port for PlayStation 4. The engine renders natively
via sceVideoOut
Aim Assist — three modes on L2
A new target-snapping system that makes the game feel console-native on a pad.
Everything runs on holding L2 (+ modifiers), and you cycle targets with the D-pad.
Enemies — Combat Aim (hold L2)
- The reticle snaps to the nearest enemy.
- D-pad ←/→ cycles through targets; you see the % to-hit.
- Cross fires, and Cross + R2 opens an aimed (called) shot — VATS body-part window.
- The target list is frozen when you engage: it never jumps as the camera moves (only dead/out-of-reach targets drop off).
NPCs — Interaction Aim (hold L2 outside combat)
- The cursor snaps to the nearest person to talk / barter / interact with.
- D-pad cycles people, Cross opens the interaction.
Items & Objects — Loot Assist (hold L2 + L1)
- Snaps to the nearest container, corpse or door — works in and out of combat.
- D-pad ←/→ cycles objects, Cross opens/loots — or applies an active Skilldex skill (e.g. Lockpick) to it.
- Reach and skip-empty behavior are configurable.
> All three modes (Combat Auto-Aim, World Auto-Aim, Loot Assist) can be toggled
> from Settings; scope (screen vs. whole map) is tunable in ps4_controls.cfg.
RobCo Boot Menu — multi-game & on-console config
- Auto-detects game folders in
/data/,/mnt/usb0/,/mnt/usb1/— Fallout 2, Sonora, Nevada, Olympus 2207, Fallout 1 (et tu), RPU (custom names viatitle.txt). - Hold L1 or L2 at launch to open the Boot Menu at any time; on first boot it opens by itself (no countdown).
- D-pad selects a game, Cross launches it, Square opens the **RobCo Configuration Terminal** — 16 options with no file editing: TV resolution & scaling, stick roles, aim/loot assist, melee approach, cursor & touchpad speed, on-screen keyboard, Circle behavior, and CE QoL packs (auto-open doors, party loot/barter, inventory columns, always-run + fast combat…).
- Saves land in
/game_folder/SAVEGAME/and survive reinstalling the package.
