Hi all

Im not really into the mapping thingy yet. the big reason I work with it, is that I want to chance the appearance of my fallout 2 party.
I was able to make press. bodygaurd (horrigan) into Vic. It has alot of problems. like : this critter cannot hold anything. and the combat abilitys cant be changed. Also he doesnt walk after me on maps.

What I do is : i create a body that i want my npc in. then i edit the body. put in Vic script in for example and the Vic party thingy.

After this the body react as Vic but im not pleased with the results

Is there someone that could explain what im doing wrong or maybe explain it an other way.

Tnx in advance
 
horrigan can only have the claw and the plasma weapon ( as seen at the end of the game.. ) and has no animations for the rest of the weapon types ( so for example he cannot hold a rocket launcher.. )

as for why he is not following you, i have no idea.. have you just changed vics appearance, or have you altere'd horrigan into vic??

because the vic character is 1 of 6 prototypes ( depending on level.. ) and is referenced thet way....
 
yea i altert horrigan into vic.. I dunno how to chance vics animation.
I know about the weapons on franky. what I tried to say was the combat control on him didnt work. I couldnt select for example" run when your finger hurts"

but is there a way to change the animations of the NPC in Dims mapper ??
 
that's because every character in the game has a prototype.. and even though you changed frank to act like vic, his prototype has some things turned off that vic doesn't..

you need to change vic to look like frank... not just change frank to act like vic...

to edit prototypes.. find red's posts on the subject..
 
Yeah. The blade thing is actually in the knife category, can't remember what his wepon is... But given you know it he can wield any weapon of that category...

As for him not following, he's correct. the PID would need to match something found in party.txt fir him to follow you.
 
ok tnx for the help. to bad that we cant change the looks in dims mapper yet.

As for editing the pro files and stuff like that think it messed my other fallout up. And like I said before im not really into editing. So i probly messed it up myself :oops:
 
just to clarify for me though Red!, he can have any blade weapon, but it will look like his claw????
 
i can awswer that.... yes. Give him a knive and is looks like his claw/sword thingy. You can also give him the big energie weapons it would just look as his main gun
