Fallout 1,2, tactics and 3

[Thor22]

1.I'm playing Fallout 3 now(ish) and while I have discovered a lot, can anyone tell me how to get into the Vault at the back of Little Lamplight?

2.I can't open the gate. Do I need to be uber friendly with the kids?

3.How about getting into the Vault which is heavily irradiated in the middle of the western edge of the map. It was gaurded by some mutants but now the way is clear but I get creamed before I get to the door by the radiation.

4.I'm wearing the advanced radiation suit (+40% rad resistance) and have taken Rad-X. Any ideas?

5.Top left corner of my map is a place called Raven-something. How do I open the door and have a look around?

Actually, I was going to run you through this, but I don't know how to make 'spolier text', so you could always look up an online walkthrough such as this

Hope that helps!
