Dogmeat Won't Leave Vault 101

So I told dogmeat to wait for me by Vault 101 while I cleared out the RobCo facility. Which I did with Jericho. But now he won't follow me when I got back. I tried killing and resurrecting him (console commands), resetting the companion quest, and none of it worked.

 

Any ideas?

I have a mod that removes karma requirements.

like I said. karma.

EDIT: you know how karma works with all NPC followers? they all are scripted to follow only a above average karma level.

 

So in essence, you answered your own problem. YOU removed the function of the game for the followers so they have NO idea what to do, Jericho is Evil, Paladins will not fight with you, no one will as long as you have Jericho as a companion, you are automatically slated as very Evil, that's the the reasons you will not get him to follow you, Fawkes won't either.

 

you remove game functions , you are the problem. If you blow up megaton before hiring, the game has a built in chance mechanize to disallow you companions due to your dastardly deeds. 3 Dog will report of your miss doings too.

 

Karma has teeth. you got bit.

No , you learned something you won't for get. we are here to answer inquiries in the (technical-support) section. we are veterans of the game. Some times it just takes a little more time to think things out. when playing the game, we get lost in it, it seems real......so we kind bring that along in the posts. your post does reflect a sort of missing a companion you liked a lot.

 

but, in the "OP" you had the real reason posted. when the game first starts out, you are neutral karma, and if you tried to recruit Jerico, he will turn you down because your "Karma is too high". Jericho...represents a slime ball Raider character retired. Evil as they come.

 

fallout 3, is guilt by association Oriented. we have perks and resets for karma in the game and add on mods to enhance game play or make it so hard, you can't gain anything. In the games opening screens. there are settings to make it even easier or just plain hard period.

 

Galaxy radio is a popular area for modders, GNR !, custom made sound tracts for the radio stations are available for use to change things.

massive redone versions of the game have been made.

 

3 dog posts/ Broadcasts your exploits, good or bad and the game keeps track of it all, track crime. Jericho is why I know Dogmeat will not go with you.

 

so, you now know what took place. and can obtain him back, all it takes is how you play out the remains part of the game.

Your choices have consequences in the game, that is the whole point of fallout3, for you to choose your own path.

Dogmeat does not have a karma requirement. From the Vault, the Fallout WIKI: "Dogmeat is found in the Scrapyard (south of Minefield), fighting several raiders. Regardless of any other companion in your party or your Karma level, you can recruit Dogmeat."

Mr doggy was already recruited. But as a companion and the other mods he/she had running was left or told to stay at the vault 101 which is GAME default return home for dog meat after being hired. let's do it another way, choose paladin hoss and Fawkes and compare their quirks in the same scenario in game.

 

Fawkes hired Hoss will not join you. WHY?

 

Jericho hired, Fawkes will not Join you WHY?

 

and the list goes on. I have seen Dogmeat leave me and no longer respond due to Evil. really cruel things I did in the game. point blank, that is karma, Negative points in a points system game.
