For whatever reason even after I do the pathing fix for master.dat and critters.dat in the fallout 2 cfg file it still shows me the error message "Can't find or load text/fonts" when I try to start the game. The vanilla game works fine on my comp but after I install mods such as the Megamod and the Restoration mod (not in the same install obviously) that message pops up. I seemed to be able to fix it using the cfg tactic for the install with the megamod but the restoration mod continues to elude me. I have two versions of the game installed at the same time and I installed the restoration mod in the second install if that makes any difference.

Sorry for the late reply, but it worked. Thank you kindly.
