Fallout 2 error initializing video mode 640×480 как исправить
I recently bought the Fallout Series pack as it was on sale.
I installed Fallout and Fallout 2, and it seems that they installed properly (Steam hasn’t notified me of anything wrong)
However, when I launch the game I get an error saying «Error initializing video mode 640×480» and the game never launches.
I am running Win7 64 bits.
I looked through a few forums and they say that we can fix this by downloading the hi-res patch update, but it didn’t work for me.
Regardless, I think it’s crazy that Steam allows to sell a game that won’t play on modern systems.
I feel completely ripped off.
I don’t want to spend 4hours trying to figure out how to patch/mod the game just so I can play it, when I can just pirate it and get it playing directly.
Ok so after some research, it seems that this error will occur on most modern systems.
I think it’s shocking that steam proposes a purchase without at least telling us that there is this compatibility problems. Did they even test it before releasing?
Also, apparently the patches and the mods that fix this problem can be applied on the 1.1 version of the game, but not the version 1.2, which is the one Steam gives. The 1.2 is not an official version, it’s the Steam release (basically the difference is that it forces the steam client to be opened for the game to be launched).
So all in all, Steam sells a product that won’t run on current hardware for the most cases, and doesn’t warn the buyers, and to top it off they modded the game to fit their requirements, without regards for the fact that it blocks any modifications on the game that would actually fix the problem.
Since steam doesn’t seem to be responding to my messages, I’ve been looking around and I found that gog.com sells these games, and they are 100% compatible with recent systems.
Not gonna buy them, because I’m not gonna pay twice for the same game, but for anyone wanting to buy that game I’d recommend going there, at least for older games since they always make sure they are compatible with current systems, run in full screen etc.
I made Fallout 2 work, with many difficulties, and following this guide here, but it didn’t work for Fallout 1, and I can’t even think of trying Fallout tactics, because of how complex it seems to be.

This guide tells you how to use high-res textures, which is nice, and incidentally fixes the video problem (at least it did work for Fallout 2).
I recall telling myself : «I should always buy games, if only to avoid all the hassle of patching / cracking / modding a game before playing»

You mean the patch that comes with the game from steam, that Bethesda provided?
or are you telling me I need to go and fix something that neither company has payed any attention to?
I’m referring to the patch that contains the file: f1_res_Config.exe
Do you see that file in the game’s root directory?

Yes, and I already tried altering settings in notepad. nothing worked.

Open f1_res_Config.exe and change the Graphics Mode to «DirectX 9» and then enable windowed mode.
Try the game’s native resolution (640×480) and go up.
Try the game’s native resolution (640×480) and go up.
even when I change the resolution size, it gives me the error, «Error Initializing Video Mode 640×480»
changing the Color Bit doesn’t work either.
Enable compatibility (Windows XP SP3)
Set «disable display scaling on high DPI settings» on
Disable «run on 640×480 screen resolution»
Set SCR_WIDTH=640 and SCR_HEIGHT=480
Also try running as administrator if none of that works.

We are making progress I think, now its saying Error Initializing Video Mode 1024×780.
thanks for your help btw.

Had the same Problem and solved it!
Here my solution:
Go to the Fallout 2 Game Folder (..\Steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 2)
There you’ll find a File called f2_res_Config.exe, run it!
Choose your Screen resolution and refresh rate (60Hz)
I also enabled «Fallout 2 US v 1.02d»
Then click «Done»
Run the game, it should work now!
Была такая же проблема и решить ее!
Вот моя решение:
Перейдите в папку Fallout 2 игры (.. \ Steam \ SteamApps \ Common \ Fallout 2)
Там вы найдете файл под названием f2_res_Config.exe, запустите его!
Выберите разрешение экрана и частоту обновления (60 Гц)
Так что я включен «Fallout 2 США против 1.02d»
Затем нажмите «Готово»
Запустите игру, он должен работать!
