Update: Mod still works like a charm even in 2024!
Like other users here, I also give myself goodies to issue the guards via console command.
I give myself 20 or so military fatigues, 20 Combat helmets and 20 Select Assault Rifles ( Neeher mod , they look great and are a Fallouty version of the CAR15 form Vietnam vintage except for the side charger) Via console commands I issue those items to all the guards.
The only time I had problems with the guards despawning the gear was when I did it inside DC and before the synth incident. Every gear I issue after that seems to stick for the rest of the game.
I also run a mod where I can become Mayor of Diamond City ( Depravity) so eventually those will all be my troops anyway. Kinda a seperate unit but cooperating with my Minuteman forces (whom I equip similarly)
Love the mod. thx for sharing. But I like to add my own armor to them. I chased all the guards down. Made my changes. Went on a mission on the other side of the map. On returning they were back to their ridiculous baseball outfits. Is this normal? I can understand if they died and re-spawned but it's every one of them. EDIT: UPDATE Yep, it definitely resorts back to the stupid baseball uniforms. With a bat for a weapon. No wonder they die so easily. A bat to a gunfight. Won't be able to use this mod in my setup. Not unless I can globally change the load-out for the diamond city security. But as is, I hate having to uninstall this great mod. But to see these guys roaming around in their baseball jammies is to painful to see.
Does this mod change Diamond Security clothing? Trying to track down a mod that make them wear white uniforms, although with whatever change, some of them are naked (with underwear). Poor guys look ridic.
Is there a respawn timer on the Turrets and guards? I run a 255+ heavily combat/war modded game and It took awhile but the Raiders broke thru and got into Diamond City!!! Which WAS AWESOME, but now all the turrets are broken... Is there something I can do in FO4Edit?
I'd like to know the same. I also run a lot of difficulty mods, and basically, I can count on the DC guards and turrets getting wiped out pretty quickly. It seems like because Diamond City is the biggest settlement around, likely having more resources and drawing settlers from across the Commonwealth, there would be an opportunity to replace both guards and turrets. If there is no respawn timer, then the only difference between a game modded with this and the vanilla game would be that it would just take a little longer for the guards and turrets to get wiped out, but the result would be the same, and then really, what's the difference? So if anyone knows if the guards and turrets respawn, I'd love to know.
Thank you for this. Its essential for mods like "NPCs Travel" that result in small groups of DC guards getting pancaked when ANY enemy patrol passes by.
Hi, this is a great and needed mod with a randoms patrol mod that i have installed causing enemy's to attack DC..one problem though, a Gunner squad cam to DC and annihilated the defences.....despite leaving the cell and a day or two passed, there has been no reset of the cell and all defences are still destroyed?
Can you make the guards essential or protected ? I play with war on commonwealth and ghoul outbreak and more spawns, so its a battlefield. But I prefer that Diamond City be a protected haven.
