Two modders showed interest in doing this companion mod, but real life got in their way. It's been a long while and I am hoping someone might have the resources and time to get involved in this project. Write me!

Bump. Still looking. :D

Thats right! She was the one with multiple outfits who did all the cooking. I had her shacked up in Novac. I need to replay NV. So much fun! I know the mods are just getting going now, thats why i wanted to make my presence known now so i could get in early with a dedicated companion modder.

I went to check out the Willow mod from Skyrim, but it seems set to private. But if the creator is interested...I am still looking. :)

I understand it will likely not be done until the creation kit comes out. I'm patient. :D And yes, female companions are more popular for romantic and eye candy reasons. But that doesn't mean everyone looks for love in video games. Inigo and Hoth were great companions. And I have no issue recording romance lines that go both ways. Some people are turned on by bald baddass dudes with a big rifle. ;) Honestly, I think ANY companion that had the configuration and AI depth of Cerwiden, Inigo, or Vilja (Or Willow or Wendy from Fallout NV) would be magnificent. I think that definitely requires the creation kit though. Female companions tend to be more popular... everyone wants their waifu. However, I'd roll with this dude you're describing if he's well constructed on config and AI, and therefore useful. (Right now, I'm running around with Cait, MacCready, Josephine (Mod, uses settler AI and voice, though follows you), and Dogmeat. I ditched the automatron bots, because they don't leave me anything to shoot at.) If I had the tools and skills, I'd be on this right now. I struggled to retexture an article of clothing. I am mostly commenting here to show anyone looking to take on a project that there's interest. Nice-to-haves would be a few levels of chat frequency, ability to sneak well, aversion to traps, configurable hostility level, separate "backpack" storage (so you can give him a fatman to lug to a trader without him killing your party to take out a radroach at your feet), follow distance settings, and gold-tier would be setting up a campsite. (I know Wendy does this in NV, I forget if Vilja does.) Being a good shot should go without saying.

If you know any of the great modders who did the companions in Skyrim...send them this way. I tried out , Hoth, Cerwiden, Inigo, Sofia and Vilja. I am thinking something along those lines.

I've played the entire franchise and have long wanted to make a companion of myself. One that looks like me, is voiced by me and fights how I like to fight. I'm, 6'2 250, bald with a van dyke beard. I'm a hobbyist blacksmith, I am an archer, can shoot, and can brawl (I was a bouncer in NYC for a few years). I've voiced characters in Skyrim mods and in some developing Fallout 4 mods but have never gotten to voice a full companion before. I'm from the Boston area and my voice is perfectly suited to the Fallout 4 environment. I don't have a strong Boston accent, but honestly the NPC's with strong accents all sound fake anyway. I looked into the tutorials to see if this was something I could manage myself, I'm pretty tech savvy, but the number of applications used sets just too steep a learning curve. So I was hoping a modder here might be interested in creating a companion with me. I'm open to any storyline ideas or even just busting out a simple voiced companion without the extra baggage of special locations or custom weapon/armor textures. The scope of the character would be largely up to you. I'm happy to write and voice quests if you want to make the companion robust and fully fleshed out. I see him as a Hunter Survivalist, and occasional bounty hunter (this part may tie in with the quest line). As a hunter he'd use a killer hunting or sniper rifle for ranged, and a super sledge for melee. I've seen a mod that shrinks the super sledge to make it a one handed weapon...ideally that's what I'd want. I'm a blacksmith, so the idea of using a one handed sledge is really appealing. I don't expect anyone to make a bow/cross bow, though that would be frickin sweet. The mechanics and animation, I think, would be a lot of work. When I voiced an NPC in the Wheels of Lull - Skyrim mod, that mod had augmented the dawnstar crossbow into a gun...but trainwiz is well, a wiz when it comes to making custom animations. And I think he spent a ton of time making it. As a Hunter he'd be independent and if you wanted him to have a faction alliance it would be with the Minute Men. Maybe he is a Big Game / Synth hunter and has a cabin in the woods decorated with the heads of destroyed synths and Deathclaws and Radscorpions. I'd love a giant Deathclaw Skull mounted above the fireplace. Maybe he could be someone the Minute Men hired for a job(s) that fall below their moral threshold? Would Preston stoop to assassination? Please write me here or email me at gabrieldunn _at_ gmail _com. If you want to make this companion together. Thanks!

If I knew how to mod i'd have already made myself into a companion. That would be my ideal role here. Someone who models the companion after me. My look and preferred fighting style and attitude. So if you create companions and would be down for it, let me know. I don't mind recording lines for days. it's what I do everyday anyway. :) And I'm a big bald scary muthfuka and would be right at home in the Wasteland.

Thanks. I do paid work, so the mic quality and sound space isn't an issue. I do mods and machinima because I'm a gamer and want to do more creatively. Not much creativity in doing phone system IVR's. email me if you ever need a voice. GabrielDunn _at_ gmail.

I know, right? I assumed they thought that's how someone from boston would say it...but fuuck, why not just hire a Boston based VO actor who knows?

Sent you a msg.

I am a professional Voice Actor. I have been working for over five years doing IVR's and phone systems, audio books and some animation. I voice Minute Avvarri (The Blacksmith) in the Wheels of Lull DLC mod for Skyrim. I am from the Boston area and do a better Boson accent than most of the actors in the vanilla game. (I hate they all say Quinzy instead of Quincy. NO ONE SAYS QUINZY!) I normally speak without the regional dialect but have no trouble turning it on. I have a home studio and can record high quality voice tracks. I use a condenser mic and can convert to whatever format you need (wav, mps whatever). I love Fallout and Skyrim and would love to voice a full companion. I am aware it would take a good deal of time and I am willing to commit to that. You can hear some of my work: http://gabrieldunnvo.tumblr.com/ https://soundcloud.c...ce-overs/tracks If you want to talk over skype or have a sample you want read...send it to me.

I personally am trying to get all the voice acting recorded for my mod before the creation kit is released. I want to have all of my writing done and recorded so it will be ready to be imported into the game in a timely manner. Nice! I'm bad at thinking ahead like that. I'd probably go around the other way. First finish the stuff in Creation Kit, including dialogue trees and then find the voice that fits the finalized companion, maybe tweak some things around with the actor if they're interested, but that's just me. Well when you need a tough male, or hero male voice...or a Boston townie...write me. I'll still be here come spring time. ;)

Thanks. I know the GECK isn't out yet. but most modders working on the big mods, and not just retexures and nudes, are already writing. just getting it out there. Thank you for the heads up though.
