Malicia : « Hi-iii♪, Ivy ! I'm very glad you're doing well. I hope you'll get vacations from shooting people soon, yes !  »

To use a response from Ivy 4.0.."Ahhhhh..."

Aww.... that's so cute with the voice thing!  Poor Ivy...

That time when you build a whole new computer just for a fresh fallout 4 Ivy play through.... ?

"My Computer is Ready!"

Yea... sitting here refreshing the page

does she still hide away in the bunker after you tell her to live in sanctuary like v4 did?

Merry Christmas to me!  Ivy is lovely!  Must say I truly appreciated the video too.  Thank you!!!

IMPORTANT: Version 5.1 release

A bug was identified where the NPC's did not have voice files during Ivy's Main Affinity quest.

This has been addressed and fixed.

You can simply overwrite the current mod with this one and continue playing where you were.

Reginald_001:

Thanks for the new version of Ivy.
Now I can continue with the Spanish translation.
I can't promise you a end date.
When you commented that you were working on this new version, I was translating version 4.0 (Approximately 50% was done) and I decided to wait for this new version.
I will have to verify that what I had translated matches with version 5.1 and continue from there.

Thanks again.

@davidbonde for technical support please go to the appropriate section of the blog: 'Documentation and Technical support'.

This is announcements, so I'll clean up this thread a bit.

Hello Reginald_001!) You have created a wonderful mod that today knows no equal in the world of Fallout 4!!! Will you allow me to translate it into Russian and place it on a Russian-language website with mandatory indication Of your copyright and links to Your page?

Thank you in advance .

Sincerely yours

Svetlana

When I try your Discord link I get 'invalid invite'.  What did I say wrong?

@Shor the link should also be in my Sig if not here's a fresh one straight from Discord https://discord.gg/rdW3kr

Using your new link, ...   I get invalid invite.  Damn.  I must've REALLY pissed someone off.

@Shor do you have a Discord ID yet? I can send you a direct invite? 

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

For quests, such as the robot DLC, Far Harbor.. and other quests that require you to have a specific companion. Ivy 5.2. will support her OWN IMPLEMENTATION OF MULTI-FOLLOWERS. This means that from 5.2 (will be released within several weeks/2 months at most) you will be able to travel with ANY ONE (1) extra companion. And if you use the 'Best Friend' DogMeat companion mod you can add DogMeat to that group if you want.

So if this kind of silliness is your thing.. Ivy will support it soon!

I've often wondered how Ivy would interact with other characters such as Piper, Curie, or Cait. I know this change won't answer that question, but her snarky or charming dialogue  towards other characters would be fun. We see a bit of this in her interaction with Marcy at the Museum of Freedom and when she chases her out of Sanctuary. Ivy seems to have some affinity for Piper from the comments she makes about her and I could see those two getting along as traveling companions. You've given us such a rich and wonderful companion to explore and explore with, it just seems like a natural evolution for Ivy, at least to me. Regardless, thank you for all your hard work and dedication to Ivy. She is absolutely the best. I would have quit playing FO4 long ago if it weren't for her. As others have said, it has truly become 'the Ivy Game.'

Thank you Reginald_001! IMHO this is the most significant feature being added to Ivy so far. Despite its faults Fallout 4 is a pretty good game. With the addition of one or two hundred mods it becomes a wonderland of imagination and adventure and creativity. Hell yeah, I'd still be playing Fallout without Ivy. And i wouldn't be playing an "Ivy Game" without Fallout!

Ivy's recent interactions with the settlement NPCs has been delightful, and with Thuggysmurf's new Companion and Settler Dialogue Overhaul has brought Fallout's social atmosphere up to a whole new level. Fallout is the story of many diverse communities of actors. Ivy is the story of one girl (and a pelican).

I don't want to "run" with a gang of companions as well as Ivy. Ivy works just great as a full-game permanent companion. But the vanilla companions are an integral part of the Fallout story and dismissing Ivy to complete their quests now feels very lore-unfriendly. Ivy will add some much-needed spice and humour to the vanilla companion quests.

Thanks again Reginald_001, i knew you could do it.

My only specific wish for Ivy is that someone would come up with an XDI compatibility patch, as was done for Heather. Does not have to be Reginald.

Just Business requires XDI...  Wolfmark has a pretty good XDI "enhancer", but he has been gone from Skyrim for a long time.

Holy Shit @Reginald_001, how many projects are you going to do at once, and when are you going to take a break? Dude, I/we don't need you to burn yourself out. If I was freakin' talented enough, I would take a 1/4 of what you are doing and help you out. All I can seem to do is write stories and do a little xEdit work.

With as many thing as he's doing, don't be surprised if he doesn't figure out a way to create his own kind of XDI. It looks like he's trying to keep everyone from complaining about things. SMH, sometimes, just sometimes, people have to learn to accept what does and does not work and deal with it before they drive the authors crazy and ghost everybody.

Currently I'm working on/off on 4 projects:

Active development:

- Ivy 5.2

- The Extended Lore Project

- RAM-FM (Reginald's 'awesome' multi follower mod lol)

- 'Daddy' a poignant quest and companion mod featuring a male companion ex-raider that hires the player for a quest

Inactive:

- Reginald's Basement

Thank you!

I am relatively certain that is the Wolfmark version I referenced. It is buried deep in the XDI topic.

For those that need, I can recommend it. It make Ivy's dialog fully useable albeit a bit wordy.

It does let me run Ivy (mandatory) and still be able to enslave those that deserve it. Like the Raider bosses.
