I tried to add the script to the MF Hyperbreeder Alpha (GRA) which isn't included in this mod, but I can't get it to work. Is there an additional step I'm missing apart from adding RechargerWeaponMFCellAddSCRIPT?
The script itself is working fine - when I gave Arcade the normal recharger pistol he could use it
@kurvakristakoko: That's because the script which fixes this issue is SPECIFICALLY attached to each weapon. Mod weapons which use recharger ammo won't benefit from this mod.
What you may want to do is contact the creator of the mod and let him (or her) know about the issue. They're more than welcome to use my code and just put it into their mod, so long as I'm credited.
hello i;ve been looking for a fix for this for long time, but i use recharger pulse sniper rifle from http://www.newvegasnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37342 and companions still don;t use it
@RJ the Shadow: my bugfixes are ALL marked as ''you can use this file in other projects so long as you credit me''. I really don't mind who uses it for what, so long as they keep track of who did the fix.
@da2pacalypse: I haven't tested this in full, but for NPCs the weapons currently will function as if they were infinite ammo. However, there is a clip size specified, so I don't know if the game will pause for them to ''reload'' or not.
Truthfully, if the Recharger weapons didn't suck so much (comparatively) I'd be more concerned. As it is I really doubt that having no ''cooldown'' time on these weapons will matter much.
Anyway, to the best of my knowledge what kept these weapons from recharging was the fact that they weren't equipped. So long as NPCs and companions equip the weapon they should get the regen effect. Whether or not their AI will cause them to unequip once they are ''out of ammo'' is unclear. Ideally they'll just wait, but if not I can add something to the script so that on their last shot they're given another round.
I haven't tried it yet but I will. I'm just wondering if you were able to re-create the regenerate ammo effect for npcs. Will they have to wait for the ammo to regenerate or will you see npcs firing unlimited ammo. I'm just curious cause I know the recharger weapons function differently and npc would never even equip them.
Okay, thats actually pretty brilliant. Especially when I just started out my new saves, I wasnt all to happy that my last companion didnt equip the Recharger rifle and instead chose for the cr*p default gun they got.
Ill download right now, and I think you should consider letting Project Nevade or nVamp implement this in their overhaul.

Seriously, its damage and DPS are atrocious.
thanks for your time

I had tried before to equip my RTS villagers with rechargers.
