Player Companion Endearment Dialogue WIP

View File

 

Spoiler

FYI - llmaRCA updated Heather to include the missing SHOW topic responses which are used by the player Command Call.  WOOT! 

 

After testing I noticed that llamaRCA actually added some Player Command Call Hellos without any conditions AND, patching out Heather's new less than endearing PC Command Calls didn't works as well as expected.  Going to have to make a more....extensive patch which includes the voice files for both Nate and Nora which will "add back" the endearments from this mod which refuse to play now.  Stay tuned.

 

OLD NEWS - While I was testing Heather's lack of response to the Command Call at a distance I noticed some of Cait's vanilla responses were....less than appropriate given the state of our relationship and so I'm thinking of conditioning those down to be used BEFORE max Affinity and add a couple of others which will more accurately portray an appropriate response AFTER max affinity has been reached.   Nothing you haven't heard before no doubt, but maybe something you'd like to hear more often.   We shall see.  Till then.  Game On!

 

Player Companion Endearment Dialogue Heather Test

 

Player Companion Endearment Dialogue Heather Test with vanilla dialogue only.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

BOTH male & female voiced player dialogue is included in the mod.  I just don't have a female PC with max affinity companions to create screenshots to display.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

This is a VERY simple mod anyone can do themselves with F04Edit and BSA Extractor and the time to sift through the possible vanilla dialogue to use.

Since I was in the military I have used terms like "look alive" and "heads up" in real life......but I would NEVER use those terms with someone that I loved.  This mod will allow the PC to use terms of endearment whenever activating their Max Affinity/CA_IsRomantic = 1 Companions OR any Companion with the Spouse Wedding ring in their inventory.

 

The other normal vanilla dialogue will still play properly as long as the Companion's CA_IsRomantic = 0 and they don't have a Spouse Wedding ring in their inventory.  Kinda a no brainer there.

It's an ESL ESP....so put it as low as you need to if other mods conflict....OR choose not to use it if it takes away something you like....OR....Create a merge with F04Edit. 

 

No BSA.  Won't ever be one.  I'm at my limit.  You can make your own though. 

Not too sure if I want to expand upon what I've started.  Guess it will depend upon what happens in my game to irritate me enough to desire a change.  Or if someone makes a polite request and I'm feeling especially generous.  No...I won't make one for Dogmeat.  Ever.  Please don't ask.

Till then.

Game On!

 

OOPS.....Forgot Credits:

 

@Reginald_001 who "showed me the way" in what was possible to make PC & Companion interactions as realistic as possible.
llamaRCA who shared Heather and who made me wonder if my PC would REALLY talk to their in-game companion wife the way the vanilla game forces them to. The answer was...NO.
LeahTheUnknown helped me test the Female PC side of the mod. She's a CHAMP!
Bethesda for Fallout 4 of course.

Dedication - I dedicate this mod to Cait, Curie, Darlene, Ellen, Heather, Ivy, Piper, & X6-88 (Feminized).   They deserve to be talked to endearingly.  But I digress.  Again.  Game On! 

 

PROBABLE HARD CONFLICTS - Any Silent Protagonist mod.  The Male/Female PC Speak these lines.

 

TRANSLATIONS - Would LOVE to see the mod translated into as many languages as possible and I can certainly help with that by giving you the exact FormID's of the vanilla dialogue responses that I used so you can extract and upload them with your translation.  Consider this OPEN permission to do so as long as you plan to keep up with my updates within a reasonable amount of time.  THEN, I can take your sound files and make PATCHES which allow my PC to speak the endearments in other languages because I actually have Japanese speaking Follower NPC's in my game AND it would be cool to add some French speaking lines to an optional patch for Darlene.  But I digress.  Again.  Game ON!

 

CONSOLE CONVERSIONS - I wouldn't know the first thing about doing that because I've never owned one.  But, I don't see a need to deprive console users of the FUN so....the FIRST person who PM's me and asks permission to do it will probably get a "YES, please!"  Till that happens.....it is what it is.  Game ON!

Does your "esp only update" need your previous version?

 

It sort of seems like yes (because it's labeled "update esp only"), but it sort of seems like no (because for all I know maybe the updated mod maybe only needs the esp)...

Oops....sorry I missed this.  If you don't ping me, I guess I won't know if someone posts to the mod.  I'm not on the internet very much.  I jump on, check what's new on Discord sometimes, sometimes not, check Nexus & LL, then bail and shut my wifi down whenever I play or mod so my computer is on total Play POWER!  I don't stream or twitch and I'm not a fan boy.......that's just how I roll.   New version is UP and I probably won't ever just post an ESP update again because I TOTALLY get how that can confuse peeps.  It does me quite often.  But I digress.  Again.  Game On!  ?

No worries, you responded before I had fixed some other mod issues. So, for me, you responded "instantly"!

 

Anyways, thank you... I hope to see your mod in action, soon.

You're friendly for a former army-man :)))) I know 2 guys like you. They're not proud or brag about their service which I think is good. They just paid a debt to the Motherland how we call it.
