Duke Your new Best Friend

[Beefy_Chunx]

Hey.  Downloaded the mod, been going to the Concord playground, I'm not finding Duke.  I'm sure I have everything loaded/'activated, but I cannot find him.

 

I've also tried sleeping at my base (RR, right outside Sanctuary) to see if the mod will reset.  I don't see Duke at all in the playground when I go back after sleeping.  But I swear I hear howling kinda close.  I go around the nearby buildings and look, though, don't see him.

 

I haven't really started the quest for meeting Preston and the survivors in the Hall, so I'm loath to go any further down that avenue to look for Duke.

 

Does Duke have a ref ID that I can force spawn him?

Make sure the esp file is checked. Loot can tell you if it is. I use Vortex for my mods and sometimes the esp's are not activated.

^^ Thank you for replying.

 

I checked Loot and for the life of me, I cannot find Duke's mod.  I looked through NMM and Duke's file is there, the mod is enabled and AFAIK also deployed.  Which is all strange because two days ago I looked through Loot to troubleshoot why Duke wasn't showing.  The file was there, it was highlighted in red and I had seen I was missing Devious Devices.  So I downloaded DD and rechecked Loot, by all accounts, Duke's file warning message disappeared.  I then went through the FSE loader, took Nora to the playground at Concord...but I couldn't find Duke.

 

I've looked through Loot several times, slowly reading each General Information regarding files that are present.  Duke is not showing as a file.

 

Very frustrating.  I'm gonna go back and look again when I have time.

 

In the meantime, I'm still asking anyone out there if Duke has a Ref ID.  I'll console him to Nora than pointlessly looking.

 

With all the investment I've made, I want to see this mod work.

^^ Speaking of files, are there any mod conflicts one can think of.  I'm also using Dogmeat's New Trick and Albino Dogmeat, was considering that maybe certain dog-related content was banjaxing Duke showing up.  Also using Beantown Interiors, but I don't see why this could interfere.

I am not even a novice power user lol.  One suggestion would be to start the game in steam, quit without loading any saves and then start like you normally do. I don't think a ref ID would help if your esp file is not activating.

[Beefy_Chunx]

^^ Thank you, I'll give that a try.

Any update?

[shivster000]

Weird question, but how would on go about changing Duke's race? For example if I wanted to change him into a feral ghoul or some other creature but still have the same dialogues and interactions. Would that be possible?

`-console , click on him, and "setrace [race]" not working?

did that, "setrace feralghoulrace" it worked. but he has no head

[DerpedPerd]

i'm having no event happening for "Puppies are kicking", despite lugging his babies around

is it needed for duke to follow around or a mod conflict with FPE?

It does but the ghoul is headless and there's no dialogue anymore

 

[kuzinatra_79]

Can someone help me with Duke not talkin? I've tried many things, but when I talk to him he is just quiet.(dialogue is happening but no words on screen)

Check if you have subtitles on.

[Qtaro]

Hmm, this grammar is horrid! It'd take a Grammar Nazi to fix all of this properly!

[W1NT3R.]

Duke constantly loses his texture and is replaced with the regular dogmeat texture, I used to be able to remedy this by using console to disable and reenable him but that no longer works.

The mod sounds interesting, but unfortunately I don't use ArmorKeywors or Devious Devices. I would like to see a version without these mods as a prerequisite.

I have actualy had requests for the opposite on the discord having people wanting me to add the collar quest. i plan on adding even more devios device content now that i can force equip it to the player like how skyrim mods do. but all that comes after the official LL update

Hey,

 

Why can't I find Duke, I am in the Concord playground, but he is not there. Do I have to reach a certain level to find him?

 

[Guest]

Hello,

 

if Duke tries to restrain me, it will always they can not be equipped or (something with nameless is transferred in my inventory) ... then I have restraints (devious devices) in my inventory ..

Is there a solution ?

 

 

Thanks

[Dieselmutt]

never mind, I'm just dumb and missing a mod...

Quite a few of the dialogues are broken it seems. One example has the option to "bend down", then "blink". Duke then pisses on the character, and then an infinite blank dialogue camera ensues. You can leave this dialogue, but Duke chases after the character to demand a repeat of the scene.

 

Also, is there a forced wearing of the collar ever? I went to Duke's home and picked up the collar, but I never saw any dialogue indicated that he wanted my character to wear it.

[Soulbottem]

this mod still going??
