Well, I started a new file (~180 down the toilet, but whatever) and even deleted my installed data and reinstalled the game in an effort to try and avoid the game-breaking bugs. I've been using the save exploit to make Chet in Goodsprings reload his inventory very fast, and I've been buying Caravan Cards from him...and they're not showing up in my inventory. I have yet to play Caravan (Ringo was sadly killed for the sake of 13 more perks), so they might just be disappearing, but I'm not sure. I'll have to test when I get to Primm.

Something worth noting is that the game seems to avoid requesting to install patch 1.01 and jumps straight to 1.02, and even matches the 20 MB size of the second patch. So could it be possible that the two patches were actually conflicting with each other???


Edit: Something else I've noticed is that Ammo Boxes seem to be fixed as well. They will ALWAYS be opened upon purchase, and the amount you purchased will ALWAYS be recieved as well.

so are they available to put into a container, or are they simply not showing up at all?

there is a known bug with cards not going into your deck, but not going into your inventory sounds different..

They just don't show up at all. And the don't stay in the merchant's inventory either. I'm gonna go to Nash tomorrow in Primm with my new file and play Caravan with him to see if I still have them.

What do you mean by "for the sake of 13 more perks"? And also the cards are supposed to go into an inventory item that's named "Caravan Deck" or something like that can't remember what it shows as. They aren't supposed to show individually in your inventory. That was a bug.

For your first question, there is a glitch you can do that lets you get 13 more perks by leveling to 30 up in Goodsprings before leaving the area. Search "28 perks" on this forum or youtube.

For the second bit, yes I know that the cards were supposed to go into your deck. That was the thing, they weren't before I did this. Even on my other file that I was playing post 1.02 patch they were just going into my inventory.

I can confirm that having Patch 1.02 and NOT 1.01 places the cards into your Caravan Deck. I juts started playing Nash and all my cards are there.

Oh, and sorry about Double Post.

You've obviously played Caravan on the new patch ?
Could you help me out from before.. How come the option isnt there after 5 games on v1.02 but on v1.00 it is, have they changed something ?
They won't release a full change log, so im finding it hard to get answers!
