Festus Companion

Are you aware of any fairly competent mod authors that might be willing to cooperate with me on making such, or would I be better off tackling the endeavor on my own? I actually don't mind learning to do it myself, but I would very much prefer to find someone with a little more experience under their belt to give me a hand.

If your patient I'm writing up a tutorial for creating completely custom creatures that will tell you what you need to do. Yes I could make him a complete new creature including animations, but I'm up to my neck in my own projects so the best I can offer is a tutorial in the coming weeks.

 

On the plus side for your project you won't have to make the mesh, UV map and texture him which is the major time consuming part.

 

The tutorial will be based around 3DS MAX and not Blender.

 

That sounds awesome. :) Unfortunately, I'm much better acquainted with Blender than Max, but I can learn.

How about just taking Festus personality and sticking him in Victors body they both have cowboy hats on just add a mustache to Victors face you would have a RobCo Securitron model-2060B. After I killed Mr. House there is a Securitron model-2060B with an empty face screen outside Victors shack Festus AI could be uploaded into that body. Of course I'm just tossing idea's out there I don't know how hard or easy doing such a thing might be. I just thought that Victors face kind of looks like Festus and with a change to his cowboy appearance he could look like Festus . . . Or Woody from Toy Story.

A securitron is an interesting idea. With a bit of basic talent it shouldn't be hard to draw some woody faces (there's a function for changing faces so you could draw one for several different emotions.

 

Another might be a protectron. Both the hat and mustache from his original model would transfer/translate well to that type of bot.....you can have boots, as well.

No harder to do a securitron follower than any other bot (except for a little bit of extra work for drawing some screens). Festus doesn't have a ton of audio, but I'd bet his voice is easier to impersonate that many other NPCs (because it's such a caricature). Might be some Sunset Sarsaparilla dialog that could pepper his responses, making him a walking audio billboard.
