Je n'ai pas vu "Français" dans aucune des options de jeux. Il y a beaucoup de texte dans les conversations et il serait difficile pour toi de tout traduire. De plus, Il y a beaucoup d'humour subtil et je ne pense pas qu'un dictionnaire serait assez pour tout comprendre.
I don't know what Wonko said, but I do know that for fallout 1 there are language mods available, no mutants allowed apparently only has Russian language mods. I'm looking now to see if there is a french one, I have heard of one, but I've only seen Spanish and Russian.
EDIT:
here's a french fallout website, no clue if there are mods for it

here is a french fallout update patch, it is unknown whether or not it will completely localize the game

Also, here is a mod that updates Fallout 1 to use the Fallout 2 engine

Don't know if this will help much, but here ya go.

Good news! French is available but you will have to make a quick 'adjustment'.


Ouvrez le Fichier "fallout.cfg" et changez la ligne "language=english" à "language=french"
Pardon my French . . .

Here is a detailed explanation in English.
Go to the directory where you installed Fallout (usually C:/Program Files/GOG.com/Fallout).
There you will find a file called "fallout.cfg".
Open that File with a text editor.
Go to the line "language=english" (it is near the end of the file).
Change it to "language=french".

You can also change the line to "language=spanish". If you wanted the game in Spanish.
Nice ^^ thanks et merci.
So the Gog versions of Fallout 1&2 already include all the files for the French version?

I wonder if I'll take the opportunity of the current sale to buy them again (had already the Mac version of both but they probably don't run anymore since Lion). But then I quoted only English is quoted.

Are the French files has been removed because of some problems? Or even it doesn't work well in French?

Salut, la réponse est par là : http://www.skritz.com/traduire-les-jeux-gog-com-en-francais/

Cela fonctionne très bien avec les versions Mac (je suis sous Mavericks 10.9.1).

If you've downloaded the Mac version of Fallout 1, it's probably corrupted. You have to download it via the GOG Download manager.
