• The very latest in Stealth Field Technology for those sneaky covert mission assignments
• Gains the benefits of the "Inspirational" perk when selected, and the "Lone Wanderer" perk can be selected to gain its benefits when travelling with just Silver Streak (because Silver Streak is a "Teammate" instead of full "Companion").
• Available at the beginning of the game: visit the new RC Enthusiast map marker in the northwest corner of the world map beyond Sanctuary.

WARNING: Install only one of the downloads provided by this mod
WARNING 2: Not compatible with "bad guy" Player Characters; e.g. when allied with Nuka-World Raiders
WARNING 3: Not compatible with mods that control or affects companions / followers, such as Unlimited Companion (Follower) Framework, Amazing Follower Tweaks, Quick Trade, and Quick Trade Redux. Better Companions might also be a risk, but has not yet been confirmed. In general, *never* use some other mod to "recruit" Silver Streak, or to manage Silver Streak, or interact with Silver Streak, or affect Silver Streak in any way. Always use Silver Streak's own Controller functions instead.
I've been modding my game for hundreds of hours. I've downloaded and played with a thousand or more mods, and currently have a load order with close to 600 plugins. I've tried every big-name companion mod, "The Machine and Her", "I'm Darlene", "Heather Casdin", and all sorts of others and this had ended up being my favorite "companion" mod of them all. I often find myself not even using other companions when in the company of Silver Streak.
There are a few things I'm a bit disappointed by, such as no in-game explanation as to how the little guy can carry 300-400 pounds of items (Digitized Storage Device maybe?), no upgrades for the storage capacity, and also no capability to craft them at settlements for defense forces, but realistically all three of those are just light nit-picks.
Hey, it's been a while since I've played this game. Wasn't there a quest to start Silver Streak up for the first time or do you do that on your own? I just went to the shack to grab him after completing When Freedom Calls and there are no quests associated with this mod in my quest log. I can't remember if that's normal. Thanks!
I decided to see for myself. I guess I was being forgetful, as usual! Thanks for your great mods! I've been using this and Sparky together for probably 2+ years now.
See Silver Streak's Notable Features via the Articles tab above for the level requirements of each quest. The first requires Level 2 or higher. The in-game holotape might provide that same information.
I no longer remember the details. But likely this mod and that one both alter the same location somewhere or other, and so depending on load order sequence whichever one is above the other will have its changes negated.
for some reason the quests 'Target Seeker' and 'Molecular Disruption Technology' aren't starting, i've finished all previous quests without any issues but nothing happens after finishing 'High-Impact Ballistic Weaponry'. i'm currently level 76
Given that you have completed the Gauss quest and at least Level 40, the next quests should only be waiting to present themselves if one or more of the following is true:
• SilverSteak has been destroyed and not yet rebuilt/repaired • the game is currently in menu mode • the player character is currently in combat • the player character is currently unconscious • the player character is currently talking
silverstreak is fully functional and i've been playing normally for at least 20 hours since completing the gauss quest. i spent a few minutes just standing around at silverstreak's cabin but the quests still won't start
Okay, then feel free to make a copy of your saved game available for investigation. Saved games are in \Documents\My Games\Fallout4\Saves with .FOS as the extension. It should be a "full" saved game, not a "quick" save. Upload it to somewhere I can grab it from with instructions on how to do that, or email it as an attachment to: [email protected]. Have your character and Silver Streak be near the cabin or landing pad.
NOTE: I am often (but not always) able to load a player's saved game and do some investigation, even though I do not have the other mods installed.
Did you actually complete the High-Impact Ballistic Weaponry (gauss cannon) mission, and did you upgrade Silver Steak and receive that mission's completion message?
There is no evidence of completing that mission, or even starting it, and its script is not currently running. In fact the items to be collected for the gauss mission are still in their initial locations.
The Molecular Disruption Technology mission has not appeared because the gauss mission's script launches it upon successful completion, and that completion has not occurred.
The seeker missile quest, Target Seeker, is quietly running in the background, waiting to present itself. And has not yet done so because the gauss mission is not marked as completed.
Currently investigating what could/might have gone wrong with the gauss mission ...
if I reset progress back to the beginning of the Plasma Weapon Technology mission (which you did complete in the saved game you provided), it works correctly and successfully launches the High-Impact Ballistic Weaponry gauss mission ... the gauss mission also then completes successfully, and the Gauss mission's script successfully launches the Molecular Disruption Technology mission. At which point the Target Seeker mission becomes available as well.
So not yet clear why that mission sequence failed for you ...
... although one very real possibility is that you have some other mod installed which conflicts in some way with a Silver Streak mission location or objective, which then causes a scripting failure in this mod.
There might be a way for me to provide a work-around, or a set of console mode commands, that enable you to properly resume play.
oh you're right i didn't complete the gauss quest, my mistake. not sure why i thought i did. i definitely completed the plasma weapon quest though, it shows up as completed in my pip boy and i can select the plasma weapon in silverstreak's controller, so it stops progressing after 'Plasma Weapon Technology' for some reason.
though shouldn't the script still at least start the quest even if one of it's objective cells is edited by another mod? i have no idea what could be preventing it from even starting
i finished 'A Bigger Bang' and then 'New Age Galvanics' without issue after completing the plasma quest
The game does not start a quest/mission if there is something wrong with one of the target locations or objectives. So if some other mod alters any of those from what is expected, then that quest/mission is not started by the game -- the scripting is never run
I believe that kind of conflict situation is what occurred for you. Not my script failing, but instead the game not running the script due to one or more conflicts.
In this case the destination location is the National Guard Armory, and one of the objectives is a ruined base-game vertibird at that place. Either that vertibird is altered by another mod, or something else -- there are multiple objectives there. The result being that the game ignores the request to start High-Impact Ballistic Weaponry.
Whereas when I reset the quest/mission sequence, and do so without the other mods that you have installed, it all works fine for me. Ergo, there is a conflict of some kind between my mod and your installs, and it in some way involves the National Guard Armory.
Install the Gauss Mission Fixer ESL patch from the Miscellaneous Files download section, and then load your current saved game. One or more messages will appear, either indicating success or notification of an abort.
If the fixer declares itself to be successful, you will then need to wait up to a minute for the Molecular Disruption Technology mission to present itself, and a minute or two for the Target Seeker mission to appear. While waiting, stay out of combat and avoid game menus and Pip-Boy screens.
Ideally, this patch forces successful completion of the High-Impact Ballistic Weaponry (Gauss Cannon) mission, enables immediate use of the Gauss Cannon, and ensures the launch of those two other missions.
the fix was successful, a few message boxes popped up and then 'Target Seeker' started about 5 seconds after followed by 'Molecular Disruption Technology'.
i checked my load order with fo4edit and the only mod i have that edits the national guard armory is Heckler und Koch - MP7, it places a few things in the same room the gauss parts are in, so maybe that's the conflict?
When you reach Level 2 or higher, a mission will appear which enables you to upgrade Silver Streak to include automatic self-repair technology. There is no way for Silver Streak's damage to be repaired until that mission is completed, unless Silver Streak is completely destroyed.
When you reach Level 13 or higher, a mission will appear which improves Silver Streak's self-repair capabilities.
When Silver Streak is destroyed for the first time, a mission appears that enables you to repair/rebuild Silver Streak whenever destroyed.
[ see the Silver Streak article above via the ARTICLES tab for a list of the available missions ]
I just redid my entire load order with Buffout 4 and other fixes and I needed a small quest mod to allow me to roam about and test all my mods in different circumstances and locations.I just did all the fetch quests for the upgrades and explored a great deal of the map, got 6 settlements, and 5!! of the vanilla power armors. This would be great for someone who was unfamiliar with the game to have a path to exploring and acquiring settlements and gear in a lore friendly way. Of course the further East you go, the challenges become greater but its gradual. The little guy is hovering over his landing pad in RR (cant get him to land), He is pretty good in a fight. Thank You!
Hi there i absolutley love this mod playing on og xbox memory for mods is full (around 60), i only have a question if as im starting a new playthrought and i got the silver streak and i still got to do nuka world, will it work if i leave silver streak at landing site? And just do the nuka world and then get it back or would that make issues ? And also i use everyones best friend, and ice storm combat drones, i wonder if its compatible with those as they alter campanions, ISCD can be depleyed as teammate ,but its said that it doesnt affect other campanion mods ,playthrough on survival mode
I absolutely love this mod! I did run into a small problem, but also a solution. I was coming back to turn in the Galvanic and Gauss quests, and interacting with Silver Streak to apply the upgrades did nothing.
I saved game, and went into console, tried to nudge the quests closed. That didn't really help, other than allowing the quests to close. I wouldn't recommend this as a method to get past stuck points like this.
So, I went to the nearby bunker, and slept for the night. When I awoke, the pending events that granted Silver Streak the new weapons finally triggered.
In other words, if someone gets stalled trying to turn in these quests, just sleep on it. :)
Finally got around to trying out Whirly and Silver Streak after being a long-time fan and user of Sparky - I don't even want 'normal' companions anymore, I just want to be a woman in a walking tank suit with my very own ad hoc satellite defense system in orbit at all times.
I also just wanted to say, I love the shack and in the spirit of your memorial I couldn't even begin to bring myself to scrap all those RC plans and they have a permanent home in my Sanctuary Archives.

Thanks so much for this little guy!
The equivalent settlement defenders can be crafted using my Settlement Radar Station mod.

So any thoughts on those?
