This is a great mod. I appreciate all your hard work in upgrading the best companion mod on the FO3 Nexus. I don't get why it doesn't have more downloads. You did a fantastic job integrating FCO and the cool looking Colossus Power Armor. I feel I should vote for this as File of The Month. I'm only 7 years late
How do I install this mod. I install colosus BOS and all brotherhood armor changes to Colosus armor but Praetus still uses the original BOS armor. Is this because the main file is an .esm? BTW in the original mod Praetus always uses his helmet.
What is the AER16's id? I entered the Anchorage Sim and he died, I've loaded the save before entering the pod and he's dead by the elevator outside, I've ressurected him but I'd like for him to use the Prototype rifle instead of his default one.
Oops, I remember getting your pm now and I totally forgot to reply.
I can't remember the code for his helmet, but if you click on Praetus while in the console and type INV it should be in the list somewhere. If the list is too long to display fully, use PageUp and PageDown to scroll it. Then just type "removeitem ******** 1" (with the stars representing the helmets ID).
Hope that makes sense, sorry for the delayed answer.
I know this is a bit late, but thanks for the image. Sorry it took so long, been trying to verify it for a while, but it's the first time I've had to do it and the button wasn't there until today.
Like the new look! I always prefer my followers not to wear helmets, but not seeing them speaking always breaks the realism a bit.
I always liked Praetus' voice and his original face wasn't too bad considering how hard it can be to make a realistic looking face with the geck, so once I'd learned how to generate .lip files it was the first thing I thought of.
When you say silent, do you mean actually silent as in no voice at all or voiced but no lip sync? It could be either of two things. Have you downloaded the voice files from Praetus' files page? Also changing the name of an esm/esp stops it from finding its associated voice/lipsync files. Have you renamed anything?
I'm glad many others are getting introduced to Praetus.
Have you noticed the problem that when you say "use a weapon I give you", he just uses his fists? And he won't use his Laser Rifle, Power Fist, or Minigun when instructed afterwards? I'm new to modding myself, so I would be grateful if you were to look into fixing this. Also, there are some dialogue parts that are misspelled.
I've been checking the original mod now and then, and it seems to still be getting quite a few DLs for how long its been around. If any of that is down to this addition, then I've achieved what I set out for. I have come across this issue, not sure what causes it though. The only thing I can think of is it could be a problem with AI package conditions. I'll take a look, maybe I can find the problem. Who knows, I might even learn something.
Did some investigating, really not sure what is causing this issue though. The feature works via a system of global settings, and although I can just about decipher how the system works, I'm not good enough with scripting to spot any leaks or loopholes which would probably cause this problem.
@mutieblaster - He is a great companion; there are hardly any male companions around with much to say. This was a great project to take on; and a lot of work for you to do. I'd give you a kudos, but I gave you one a long time ago.
It was quite a task. I started out planning just to do the follower stuff, but I got sudden OCD and couldn't stop til they were all done. Thanks again for the kudos all that time ago, funny so many like us still come here regularly after so many years. Guess Fallout 3 is just one of those games.
It's a little esp I made for myself using the XENH race, which can be found here on the Nexus. I'd upload it, but I don't have permission to use the assets. I believe I also overwrote her face with the one from "Project Beauty".
