How to add a Companion Wheel to a Custom NPC Companion

[falconcrazy99]

Kind of disappointed in the community support in these forums, maybe people don't uses these forums, or understands how to make a companion.

 

Since I figured out the answers to many of my questions, edited them out from the above posts.

 

(Every companion I downloaded was different). You need to do a lot of different steps in different areas of the GECK. If you miss a step or forget to do something, a specific function will not work.

 

Was able to find the Blanca companion that actual helped but that companion model, still has some errors in the commands and she doesn't fully work.

 

This was the best video that I found on YouTube.

This project was a royal pain to be honest. Had to go in an figure it out all on my own. Which made the process take longer than I wanted. Using two GECKS on two different computers and than drawing out the commands in an Excel spreadsheet was finally able to figure this out, it took a lot of hours !!!

 

It takes well over 24 hours to make a basic fully functional companion. Than to add all the goodies even longer. From start to finish it took me about 2 1/2 weeks to fully figure out, how to make a fully working companion.

 

Every person who make a companion, even the ones in the game, are all created a tad bit different.

 

For example Veronica was made different than Boone, than Arcade was created different than both of them. Which leads me to believe they were created by different people. In order to create a correct companion using the proper commands you have to use and learn how Boone, Arcade, Veronica and Cass were made. Than looking at some of the custom comapnions as well.

 

In order to make them work correct in the game a lot of things need to be done it is not as simple as setting the player to a follower. However as much time as it takes to make a companion setting them as a follower is easiest and quickest way of doing this.

 

Because my spelling and grammer is so bad I am not the one to write up a tutorial on how to make a companion. It is a hell of a lot of steps and they are basically not covered or posted anywhere on the internet.
