Unfortunately I'm 7 to 8 years too late but I have a simple request please. It would be interesting to see a picture of Dogmeat on the Pipboy. This would be a neat mod especially for pet owners always creating personalized crazy dog people gear. I always thought for a small detail someone should create a small leash and collar for Dogmeat. Even a personalized collar and leash too. Like a dogbone shaped ID tag.
Granted I have not seen all the Dogmeat mods if someone has already created one please respond with a link, it would be honestly appreciated please. Is this compatible with any of the other Pipboy texture mods or is this a separate decal?
Kudos for the executed idea turned into a pretty cool smaller mod that brings you into the Lone Wanderer's world and life without being overly intrusive or detailed.
It's a cool idea, feel free to use my mod as a template to get started. I guess you could grab a picture of Dogmeat and paste it in and see how it turns out in game. I'm finished with F3, I may go back to FNV some day but I don't see myself replaying F3. Sorry.
Compatibility wise I guess it can be a problem with any pipboy replacer...
Your best solution for compatibility would be to open the texture files from the pipboy replacer you're using and open the file I've uploaded, resize it to the same resolution (if need be) and then crop the photograph and paste it to the other file (or even better use a picture you like instead).
If you need a free program to edit the texture files paint.net is a freeware program that you can use.
it doesn't work for me...probably i just made a mistake packing the wrong files in a fomod ready archive but i was a little confuse about the folders and subfolders in the file i downloaded. A little readme with some explanations about the installation would be appreciated because the mod concept is nice
It's pretty straightforward actually if you give a manual installation a go, you download the main file and if you want the option you replace the one from the main file with the one from the optional file in the folders.
Make sure you have archive invalidation (which I assume you have of course).
I never made much use of Fomod myself and now I've reinstalled the game and using the Nexus Mod Manager but Fallout 3 is very temperamental on my computer (in my memory it was a lot more stable but I may be wrong there).
@svencrimm: my personal reference is the original Fallout but I'm pretty sure that being raised in vault 101 qualifies the protagonist of F3 as a Vault Dweller no matter what it says on the tin.
I bet my guy would cry whenever he sees this if I used it, but I have a retex that is darker color, and fits better with my armors. This is good though.

Thanks!
I like the Dogmeat as a puppy picture idea or the older one or a combo of both to choose from.
Either way looks real nice, going to try it out tonight
I didn't see it at the bottom of the download page.

Since there is already one of Amata, could you do one of Butch?
after all, some characters DO actually miss Butch (like mine -sniff-)
let me know what you think!
(oh, and I'm referring to the Caucasian Butch btw)
@NicholasKreuz: that is a strange idea but I'm willing to give it a try, I just need to find the right picture and edit it.
