AS Companions Reloaded w/ NOSCO!


Originally this mod was a massive WIP that did more than just add companions, and eventually I found myself not only overwhelmed at the countless prospects, but seemingly never satisfied with the results. I retooled my Mr. Dark & Co. mod once more, removing any superfluous content that I felt shouldn't have been added (grocery king, crazy bosses, mutants, etc) in order to solely focus on companions and their factions. This mod will come in two flavors; original, in which any and all AS Companions can be hired without risk and Factions - where all AS Companions will be assigned to a designated faction. 





Features:

  • More than 20 unique companions to choose from
  • All companions come essential and with limitless ammo 
  • Two bases to act as potential player homes 
  • An unmarked quest that takes you on a scavenger hunt across the Mojave

Requirements:

  • All official New Vegas DLC (no exceptions)
  • A copy of Fallout 3 and its official DLCs (this is important for several of the companion armors, otherwise they will not appear correctly in-game)
  • NOSCO companion system

Installing the FO3 Meshes:

With your legal copy of Fallout 3 and official DLCs, you need to use a BSA browser (like FOMM for example) explore FO3 Textures .bsa and look for "pink power armor" place those in their appropriate designation in the New Vegas folder. Now explore 'Anchorage - Main.bsa' and look for "dlcanchenergysword" as well as "Outcast", extract and place them in your New Vegas dlcanch folders. Now Open 'The Pitt - Main' and search for "armor", basically extract all of the armor from this mod (specifically though the Raider Commando, Bombshell & Paingiver Armors) place them in your respective New Vegas/Dlcpitt folders. Explore 'Broken Steel - Main' and look up "Hellfire", extract the hellfire armor Meshes & Textures and place them in their appropriate folders.

*Note: Red's Bandana and the Outcast Armor & Decals are included in the New Vegas textures 1.bsa, therefore it is not required to be ported from FO3 or made from scratch. 

IMPORTANT!

Be sure to use the NCCS System to either mark a house as a home for your companion or send them to the Lucky 38 DO NOT fire them without choosing one or the other, otherwise they will disappear from the game.

Do not use this mod with my previous AS Companions mod, they will overlap and ruin everything!
