Now the person who saved it needs permission from Bethesda to release the old code online
The original source code for Interplay’s Fallout and its sequel Fallout 2 was thought lost and destroyed. But it turns out that at least one person defied orders from the studio and saved the source code behind two of the most popular PC RPG s ever made. In April, Fallout creator Tim Cain explained that when he left Interplay in 1998 he was ordered to destroy any game assets or code he was holding onto that didn’t belong to him. This included the source code for the OG Fallout .
No exceptions. When I did MacPlay, which existed beyond my tenure at Interplay, every game we ported, I snapshotted. It included Fallout 1 and 2.” Heineman confirmed to Videogamer that Cain’s comments about Interplay demanding all employees who leave the studio destroy all assets or face possible “litigation” in the future was true. She just didn’t follow those orders.
