Pipboy army!

[discord]

okay so my game is now crashing on special encounter finds. i play a solo char which wasnt as clunky and reminded me of FO1 and FO2. anyways i came across pipboy after i found out you can have THREE different special encounters on one square. then i encountered him again... and again... and again... and a FIFTH time! they were all in a row. im using the "latest version" so whats up? anyway... so he didnt want to become my fifth pipboy even though i had an extra slot... but he said he would. so he wandered off the screen and i followed. immediately after that all my pipboys turned into CORE_Pipboys and i FREEZE when trying to enter further special encounters. once it even came up as a bunker before it froze. the pics might help.... but should i just kill these pipboys to fix this problem? regards.

edit: well i killed off two of them and then tried to travel, and CRASHED. goodie. all this work was fun i tells ya

edit2: as you can see from the new pic... i traded them in but being a senior knight restricts me to having just one fool trevor to join me. even a reply saying: "no clue" would help

okay final edit. i think i solved my own problem. i think i got ALL of the encounters even MORTE... pipboy was my FINAL encounter. so because of the exploit where one square can have many encounters.... the last one repeats itself each time. after filling my party up it bugged out. i can do every other mission but i cant get a special encounter.... so ill just have to save a lot.... or reload to riddicks encounter.

Yeah you can get most if not all the encounters from revisiting a square where you found one. Though usually if you've got all the encounters and encounter* a new one the game will just crash to your destop not repeat the last one over and over. That can happen with any encounter at any point in the game, though it's more likely if you keep returning to the square where it was placed on the world map.

If you can still get the missions you'll have to just avoid the encounter squares. There's a map here of all the possible encounter locations so you can avoid them.

You should have more than just Trevor as a senior knight, what did you do with the others?

Saving a lot is good, and... oh yeah avoid the encounters!

Otherwise start over, and if you still have problems uninstall-reinstall.




*Pun not intended. Yeah right

im lucky this is a SOLO char where i intend to beat the game with just my main..... just before i went on an encounter hunt to find some energy cells i checked the recruiter and had ghouls mutants and deathclaw OH MY! i beat the riddick encounter and now all i have is trevor.

Your install definately looks corrupted. As a senior knight you should be able to see most of these recruits depending on how far you've gotten, whether you are using them or not.

And on the world map screen your visited and current missions/bunkers should be listed on the right.

Backup your saves and then uninstall delete the fot folder and reinstall and repatch.

If you wanted energy cells didn't you loot the turrets in Preoria? Even with the laser gattling it's hard to get through all the energy cells available there (unless you mean the small energy cells)?
