Tales from the Commonwealth: Just a reminder I will not be providing support or visiting/replying to comments on this page, because it's easier for me to manage all my mods from a single website, one that also happens to have a mini-wiki that will answer many basic questions for you.
Wiki for TFTC Here you will find info on quests and companions as well as random NPC encounters. It is also recommended you play the Fallout 3 Mods (bundle download from the header) for additional backstory on NPCs, in particular companions Audrey and R4-04.
The Built-In Quest/Location Finder: You don't need to rely on the wiki, however, or random chance. There is an easy way to find many of the quests and locations in the mod (although not all of them). It's by completing the short, You've Got Mail quest by visiting the post office in Nahant. The reward you get for completing it will put many other locations on your map.
Bug Report, Troubleshooting, and General Help Section Any bug reports or troubleshooting questions should be searched for before being asked. If your question is new or you can't find an appropriate answer in the database (or the wiki) then feel free to ask a new one. I will get an email notification and answer within 24 hours.
Notes on Atomic Radio: I had to take down the file with custom music, will upload a safe version with only vanilla music, to add your custom tracks, you'll need to enable loose files and add tracks 01.wav, 02.wav, all the way to 44.wav (or 01.xwm if WAV isn't working for you) to this folder:
Data\Sound\fx\mus\radio\atomicradio\FM\
***If you want to download the version with custom music added, you have to go to, you guessed it, http://3dnpc.com.***
Twitter: If you like, you can follow me on twitter here. Nothing to do with mods though. I'll also be posting some trailers and content on my Patreon page.
I noticed there are conflicts in the Harbormaster Hotel with the updated game content (Halloween Workshop), any idea if patching is needed? Foward the door records?
I am sorry. I've really looked. But I could not find the solution to my problem with the You’ve Got Mail quest. I have the network cards but the girl just does not talk to me. She keeps spamming "I don't know what I''ll do if he dies" (referring to her mail man dad).
I've been looking for console commands to complete this quest, but I found nothing.
Trying to guess by memory: Maybe you did not get all the items. There might be a YouTube clip of someone doing this quest that might help. Best wishes.
I was having this issues, and on an earlier quest during alternative medicine, leaving my companions outside ( i run heather as well so had her and a tales companion with me) and coming back in weirdly solved it on both cases. Not even sure why i tried that during the issues with alt medicine but it worked then so i tried it again during the mail one and it worked then too. I don't know what the actual issue was or anything and i tried entering and exiting the cell a few times before then but only when i had everyone stay outside and come in would either quest move forward. I cant promise it will work for you but hey worth a try i guess.
Nothing game breaking, however the door you have to use to get to the roof is boarded up like in the vanilla game, and the door upstairs with the kids has rubble blocking that it. BUT you can still access both. At first when I saw it, I thought game over, but realized I can still use it because the door is still visible between the boards. Just hover over the door between the boards and it works. There is enough visible door upstairs to use.
This is one of my favorite mods so am very happy the next gen update didn't break it. A very big thank you to the mod author for this!!! Audrey is my favorite modded companion.
I'm trying to install this mod in Vortex but it is giving me an error saying that the 3dnpc_fo4.esp file requires DLCrobot.esm, which is the file for the Automatron DLC, which I do not own. The Mod page however says this mod should not require any DLC, so I'm not sure what's going on there. I have looked around and found one other user on reddit who had the same problem but no solution was offered. Any help would be appreciated!
When Kris updated to 3.02 he included the version from the 3DNPC.com site which requires the DLCs. The DLCs are well worth having for extended gameplay.
One of the main quests takes you to Harbor Hotel - the NG CC changed that interior location. It would be useful to know if the CC breaks that quest- it's an important one as it's tied to another quest which you need to complete to get full affinity for one of TalesFrom..'s companions.

Heavy dialogue options, multiple endings, and choices throughout. Basically if you like TFTC you might enjoy this as well.

I've been looking for console commands to complete this quest, but I found nothing.
Can anyone help, please?
Thanks in advance.
One question though. Are there any location conflicts between A Forest and this mod?
Interesting NPCs really was on a totally different level from what i was used to up until then so i do not doubt that last part at all.
Great mod, a Deathclaw companion was something i didn't know i needed, haha.
I already completed FCR on another playthrough but i'll take a look at his other mods, thanks for the recommendation.
