Well, I didn't read all the comments on here, but I what I did look at didn't mention We Are The Minutemen. So I'm wondering if it's at all possible that you made this with that mod in mind? (translated - is this compatible with W.A.T.M.?)
may I suggest a version without the military and army clothing? If they spawn with the army clothes and combat armor they look more like gunners than Minutemen
Hi, can you explain how to change their clothes and weapons? I currently have this mod installed, but I had some ideas that to me would look better on them and wanted to try them out. But I have no modding experience, so I don't know where to start.
awesome mod really, loving it so far... However i like to keep Preston unique, so any chance to get a version without the colonial duster? would be much appreciated
Im considering remaking this Soon, It may include Patches for some new Gear sets like the Raider Overhaul and it should include new features like increased flare gun range and Patrol Chance. The aim of this mod was to keep the Minute men looking like a guerilla force.
Anything that makes the minutemen more active in the game is a welcome change. Every few corner I turn is a brotherhood vertibird while I've yet to see a minutemen patrol.
Would it be possible to make the Minutemen summoned by the flare gun to be Protected or essential as well? I don't actually need the extra help from the Minutemen to fend off an attack on a settlement, it's just that I'd like to roleplay a General who rallies troops to help defend a settlement. The problem is that they die so easily. I feel bad that they'd die because I summoned them ...
Now if only we could craft Minuteman defense posts, to increase the size of the response zone. Or at least see them more often at settlements. Anyways good work Naf. Can't wait to see what you do once the GECK comes out.
Is there anyway to tweak this so they they only use one type of armor? As in, just the combat armor, or just the leather armor? I really love this idea, but I would like to have my militia have a uniform.
Please don't take this as a complaint. You're mod is awesome! And I thank you for the work you put into it. More just curious if I ever want to take a crack at this (mainly do Texture mods).
I actually like that they're all wearing different kinds of armor since they are an ad-hoc militia and not an actual army. The people who join are for the most part volunteers from settlements that we happen to liberate, also we're not really a well funded army, so people would be expected to carry their own equipment.
I do want to add some unit cohesion though so I think I'd rather have them all wear the Minutemen uniform and militia hat (or just the uniform since we already have the "hat only" version) I think it would give them a uniform look while keeping the rag-tag part of their armor and equipment. Especially if the armor is retextured like the ones in this mod:

Even not it would also be nice to add something like blue bandannas or something blue if they don't have the means of an actual uniform.

If they were protected (not essential, but not 10-second men) they would work better.
I would also suggest that the minutemen have a level scaling metric that tracks the player's level to some extent.
The way level works in the game, the minutemen remaining at a low level makes them completely useless by level 20.
Settlers have the same problem - it seems like an oversight.
