coralfang Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 So since now we have the faction system, isnt it possible to create a new faction with some npcs that you could engage and form a family? The basic idea : Add NPCS with a new faction that would be marriageable. In order to the npc accept your request, you would need to gain faction rep by doing some quests, bringing rare items to her/him, speech checks and whatnot. Then you would need to burn some caps to arrange the ceremony, contract a priest, buy a ring, etc... After you marry, you would need to buy a house to install your wife/husband, after sometime she/you get pregnant and have childrens. You would also need to spend some caps each week/day on your family, random chance to your kids to contract a disease, get hurt by wasteland creatures while playing outside, etc... and... idk? trips to new vegas? Your family would function like a companion that would "always" wait for you in your house, except when you take them out for some fun. Also they wouldnt be set to essencials so you would really need to take care of them. What do you guys think? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coralfang Posted October 25, 2010 Author Share Posted October 25, 2010 Very interesting.Sunny Smiles is my waifu already.Lets make it official. But then you would have to change her faction to the marriageable one :P I think it would glitch the tutorial at the beginning and the powder gang shoot-out...or another alternative would be like the sharing and caring companion mod for FO3, where you could team up with any npc in the game... Sometimes i wish i had payed more attention on my programming class, because now I could be doing cool mods :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therussiandong Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 When you think about it, this mod wouldn't be very complicated. I mean to me it seems impossible, but thats because I really have no modding experience lol. Marriage- Companion follows you or can stay in a house. Couples House-Pretty obvious, player house where the companion and child could stay Child-Generates a kid (not able to leave house) can create name more?

D: Like I know what it would need but I dont know how to code this stuff :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkZerker Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I mean it is quite possible up until the "child" part. Because the first two parts are easy. Just let the player set a home marker(like many fallout 3 follower mods). The child part is hard because it's a bit immersion breaking to have a child pop out of nowhere. So just make a very long follower mod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kemarianking Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Awesome, someone has had the same idea as me :D I think this kind of mod has a lot of potential, though I understand it would probably be pretty tricky to put together. Any veteran modders out there who'd be keen to give this a shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just make a very long follower mod... The kid part isn't hard, and the pregnant part is doable as well (as is the sex part; or a hint at the sex part anyway). You'd need a baby or at least something that could be carried around like a baby. Maybe you could fast forward through the baby year with a text or picture story time kinda thing and go straight to toddler/short kid. TV shows fast forward through the boring baby period all the time. Here are some outfits that make the NPC look pregnant. The one that I've seen in game shows off a cute little baby bump (the merc outfit): http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=12793 :) llama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazerithx Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Well. i like the mod idea myself. in FO2 you could marry the one girl/guy where they made jerky i think it was? anyhow if anyone want's to do this, I'd gladly voice the preacher if you like ^_^ i did the voice for Wild bill in Talon Company's mod, so ya know. and no, im not linking it, cuz im not doing a shameless bump. but still that would be a cool mod, also with all the radiation floating around and whatnot, if a same sex couple where to marry, maybe throw in a 20% or so chance, one get's preg's as well, for shits and giggles, like in the sims 2, some male chars got preg after being kidnapped by aliens Lulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
