User Guide

GENERAL
When you start Fallout, you can press the space bar or ESC
to bypass any movie. You should not do this unless you have pre-
viously viewed the movie. Important information is contained
within the movie segments.
The first thing you will see is the main menu.
MAIN MENU
The main menu is very simple. From here, you can start a new
game, load a previously saved game, review the intro movie, see the
credit list, or exit back to your normal operating system.

Fallout Main
Menu
INTRO
Replay the first two intro movies. You can always press the space bar or
ESC to cancel a movie, but if you want to watch them again and again
(we do) then use this feature.
CREDITS
If you want to see a list (a
very long list) of the
people who have worked
on Fallout, this is the
button to press.
NEW GAME
To start a brand
new game from the
very beginning,
click on this button.
You will then go to
the character
selection screen (see
page 4—2). If you
have just installed
Fallout, this should
be your first choice.
LOAD GAME
To restore a
previously saved
game, select this
option. You will
go to the
standard load
game screen (see
page 4—35),
where you can
restore any of
your previously
saved games. If
you haven’t
saved a game
yet, then clicking
this button is not
suggested.
EXIT
Clicking this
button will return
you to your
normal
operating
system. There is
no confirmation
necessary.
Thank you for
playing.
