Hi, I started the first bounty, and Wren tasked me to deal with Walker in a bar. As soon as I give him the collar The Marshal starts shooting Walker and prior to the collar I can't interact with him and he's invincible, is it a bug or am I just doing something wrong?
Is my problem a known issue? Wren sends me to 'deal with Garret'. The pointer is on the marshal's head. I kill the ghouls and keep him alive, but he can't respond to me, just looks at me. Killing him doesn't satisfy the task either. Any help here please? Ok, got it solved. Walked about twenty feet away from him, and he was able to talk. Forced me to kill him. Looks like I can proceed now.
So, I have this idea of a quest storyline that aims to expand the main storyline after the we destroy the institute to maintain peace between the 3 factions using synth cloning as an amazing plot device for plot twist, the scale of trinity tower and view of trinity tower for huge fights, and the using the different factions to portray human nature not just when put into the world of fallout but also reflecting our social issues in today's modern society.
This story starts when you as a player adopt the child Shaun. You can recruit Shaun as a companion, train him how to craft weapons, armor, robots, and survive in the wasteland as you do those things; he likes when you do them and increases the players' affinity with him. When the affinity gets maxed, the sole survivor discovers the Father created a symbiotic switch in Shaun which basically unlocks all the Institute knowledge depending on whether the Sole Survivor is trustworthy enough so that the Commonwealth could become a better place, and also puts Shaun as Institute's failsafe in case the player decides to eliminate them.
So Shaun unlocks the hidden omnipotent knowledge and decides to help you create an industrial revolution that could catalyze civilization's reset.
But before all this, Shaun reveals that Father have basically created a killswitch for wastelanders by assigning a newly developed Gen 5 synth to bring an army of synths, robots, and A.I. controlled Deathclaws and Behemoths for unknown purposes.
You as the player embarks on journey of meeting interesting people, small factions, and undiscovered lands as you follow the trail in finding the Gen 5 synth's base and prevent this 'doomsday device' from ever being started.
You'll meet 3 families of gangs that the Gen 5 synth secretly started to act as a conduit to influence the events in the Commonwealth, this will be discovered later in the story.
The player will do their quests such as bounty hunting, delivery, and pick up quests. The first family is made up of disillusioned Railroad veterans that were traumatized after the assault on switchboard so they decided to be covert spies working like hired mercenaries that execute hits on abusive BOS soldiers from their victims. They abide by a higher moral code than gunners; they avoid killing or stealing from civilians but steal weapon caches to sell to gunners and the next family.
The next family is a non-racist family of super mutant that trades with only few people to conquer territories from gunners, seize advanced technology away like BOS, and also attack BOS. One member is a former BOS that became Supermutant so was vilified by his faction so he became the leader of this new faction of supermutant armed by his charisma, discipline, and economist mind to gain advantage from all sources including humans. But they deal with raiders such that they collect and train slaves.
The last family is a group of ghouls cast away from Diamond City. They developed resentment toward Diamond city inhabitants. They were trained to hack robots and were highly intelligent mainly on gamma weapons. They are friendly with Children of Atom and support them on gamma weapons. They're envisioning for a commonwealth with no humans but non-feral ghouls as they developed a god-complex from hatred for those who kicked them from Diamond City.
Paladin Danse recognized that the leader of the second family was his friend Cutler whom he thought had died. Cutler survived and also revealed that gained intense hatred towards the BOS not only for turning on him for being accidentally infected with FEV but also for Danse becoming unreasonable to kill him despite them being great friends.
The player had an option to report Cutler to the BOS (if BOS were spared) or alternately,
The player now needs to go to his close friend from the 1st family regarding more information from Cutler but it will be revealed that the Gen 5 synth was responsible for cloning Cutler back to life since he grew special mutation of the FEV virus. The virus allowed him not only superior intelligence compared to other mutants but also to famoose them into obeying him. Cutler became a loyal soldier to the Gen 5 synth.
This close friend helps Sole survivor and Shaun hunt down Cutler for more information which is now defended by the second family. Within the base, trained deathclaws are freed (which Cutler gathered the device from the Gen 5 synth) after fighting Supermutants with repurposed BOS power armor pieces.
The player was given an option to betray the friend from the 1st family to get the trust of Cutler to be available for companion and join the Gen 5 synth. Had the player chosen this, in the last fight between Gen 5 synth and SS on the trinity tower, the morally upright people from the 1st family, ex-railroad veterans will not rescue the SS but would hunt him/her after some time for a big fight on the Sanctuary after fight with the Gen 5 synth was done (They'll use the remaining army of the Gen 5 synth to invade sanctuary due to SS' betrayal). When Cutler becomes a companion, it would be revealed that since his alliance with SS who's the parent of Shaun, he became expandable and can no longer be trusted so he helps SS in his fight on the trinity tower with his own army on the fight to kill the Gen 5 synth.
So there are 3 options, betray the friend - get Cutler's trust - summon friendly deathclaws through relay grenade - kill ex-RR spies that have sinister agendas or don't betray the RR friend - stay friends with the upright ex-RR spies - have access to recruiting them.
A more BOS-friendly approach is to report Cutler to BOS and have BOS squad with you to attack Cutler's base. Cutler dies and the trail towards the Gen 5 synth is cut. Only to have the Gen 5 synth send raid parties and until a certain time the Gen 5 synth himself attack the settlement but only his clone.
At the trinity tower, the Gen 5 synth could be convinced to surrender, to end himself, or to fight with the SS.
This has got to be the most sad comment section I have seen in a while, great mod btw, but I can't imagine what it's like to be a mod author and get occasional comments like this it's so f***ing funny but sad.
He spilled his heart out to you, and you crush it LMAO
I'm very independent, I make the mods that I want to make, not that someone asks me to. my main reason I always tell people I wont work at bethesda. its also why I make the tutorial vids, to show people how to do it themselves
Wow I didnt even know that, Im very sorry to hear that about someguy I have played his mods for years. And yes your work really does remind me of him with no disrespect to your unique content.
EDIT one small detail : the legendary gun we can get during the quest is not "workbenchable". I mean, it can't be customized on a weapon workbench (which is quite understandable) and can't be renamed. I like to put the ammo type in front of my weapons name ;)

Worked perfect for me, although didn't try the radiant system (still got PTSD from the vanilla ones). Got a post at bugs section for some esp issues.
Great job
