companion Meet Companion Ivy

Ivy is stalking me!
I sent her to a settlement, but she keeps teleporting to me at different intervals, even when I'm in a building for a mission with another companion.
I have disabled teleporting in the settings, but she still keeps teleporting to me.
Sometimes I have to save and / or do nothing for a while before she finally stops appearing.

Any idea what could be causing this?

Talk to her, re-recruit her, then dismiss her through dialogue, the re-recruit your other companion.

Sometimes when hiring a new companion, the follower script doesn't completely 'dismiss' Ivy.

Okay this is a cool feature, Ivy just randomly picks up and equips new guns?

Vanilla companions will as well

I found the solution, it was a mod conflict but I solved it. I do have another question, how can I change her weapons? She has both a 10mm and a pipe pistol but she always equips the pipe pistol again even if I manually have her equip the 10mm (which deals more damage)

Check the NX-2C Controller Holotape. There is a feature in there to force equip her own handgun.

I already figured that out, but then she won't use a fatman or something for example right?

Das habe ich schon herausgefunden, aber dann wird sie zum Beispiel doch keinen Fatman oder so etwas benutzen, oder?

 

Put something like that (the launch pad) in their inventory and 1-2 "eggs" ... and what do you think will happen?

you can "make" her use other stuff by removing all ammo, then give her fat man and ammo for it and equip it while in trade screen.

 

wanna commit suicide in an interesting way?? give Ivy the Big Boy (two shot fat man) modified to have the MIRV added and give her some ammo,

then enjoy your death (or possibly ctd if you hit a mob with lots of members).

 

and yes i have done that - Ivy rained absolute hell down on a group of feral dogs (lol) i survived the first hit (in fully tricked out X-01 durability PA), but not the 2nd

and by time death screen was over i saw 2 more hits (and yes Ivy was still alive).

 

i can jsut imagine what Ivy would have said ........ Well  you gave me this big ass gun so what did you think was going to happen??

I assume - that you use one of the multi-companion systems? That can lead to conflicts - the only system that works properly is the one recommended by the author.

 

Otherwise... why would you park the strongest combat companion in a settlement? That's actually the purpose of Ivy!

No, I don't use multi-follower mods. Only "Better Companions", which shouldn't affect Ivy and hasn't so far.

BTW: Why are your quote german? ^^

Super! That's exactly what it was! I replaced her with another companion and sent her to a settlement, but didn't explicitly dismiss her beforehand.
If I explicitly dismiss her beforehand and only then take a new companion, it works!
Thanks for the tip!

Nein, ich verwende keine Multi-Follower-Mods. Nur „Better Companions“, was Ivy nicht betreffen sollte und bisher auch nicht getan hat.

Übrigens: Warum sind Ihre Zitate deutsch? ^^

 

I wonder too ... because actually I am posting the English translation of my text written in German

Not sure if this is the right place but in Stein's Construct

Spoiler

The epidermal key won't spawn where it's supposed to according to the walkthrough video

That's because it's in a random drawer/cabinet in that room, different place each time.

Right, I found it but now I have a new problem. I have to enter the code which I found but it doesn't appear in my list of choices

You didn't find all the notes yet. Backtrack and make sure you got and read all the notes.

I found all of them though I think, I followed the walkthrough, I read the "optional" note too for the objective and made sure to follow the walkthrough all the way

I have a plugin for my browser that translates every Internet page into my native language, German, in real time... otherwise I wouldn't be able to interact with this site at all.

-

If I have a quote in a reply, it will of course be shown in German for me... and... when I send the text, this part is not shown in English on the forum page.

-

I don't see it myself - for me, everything is in German... except for the text contributions I have inserted in English when I write a text - which come from another translator.

Hi there,

 

Installed Ivy yesterday (for the 1st time) and something strange happened.

Upon meeting her in the bunker for the 1st time, she was without head & neck! (however the glasses are there)

Other than that she behaves correctly, talks etc...

I have not seen this with any other npc in the game so far.

 

I am using the NG version, AAF, DFS & physics, TWB. Of course I am using MO2.

 

Any help / opinion most welcome.

 

UPD : Found the culprit myself. It was the facegen patch from X-Cell.ini. Set it to false, Ivy is all good now!

 

UPD 2 : 2 things to mention, regarding Ivy. The facegen issue was solved eventually by installing Ivy's facegen from Wasteland Wonderglue mod.

I have reached the point where Ivy asked me to find some holotapes from her days as a raider (affinity around 70). I have been using Ivy along with AFT, AFT+ & Ivy patch. So far, no issues with Ivy whatsoever. Maybe, I was lucky, for once...

 

Definitely the best follower mod I have seen in my years in Skyrim / FO!

 

Thx and kudos of course for the mod!

Is Ivy's affinity tied to XP like vanilla companions? I just started a new game with her and a level cap mod and an affinity fix for it(which is probably for vanilla companions), I've seen "Ivy likes that" messages with "0/100" affinity notifications many times, it never increases.

Ivy does not use the vanilla affinity system. She has her own follower system that is separate from vanilla.

Ivy verwendet nicht das Vanilla-Affinitätssystem. Sie hat ihr eigenes Follower-System, das von Vanilla getrennt ist.

 

Isn't that already stated on the mod description page?

I just got to the point in 'Ivy goes to Nuka World' where I need to get Nukaworld Holotape 5 but while the marker is there, the tape does not spawn in the suitcase. Is there anyway to manually add the holotape or skip this part of the questline. Thank You.

Yes. In console: "help stein 0 note"

Write down the ID for the holotape, then

"player.additem <id>"
