📋 About This Mod
If you like this mod, and deem it worthy - please cast a vote for file of the month - thank you! 01/01/2009 - v0. 3a released. This update now has all of the robots fully voice acted. It is now fairly big in size, so the old version without voice acting is still available for download (v0. 2d) in case you have a rubbish connection. It has been tested and there has been one quick bugfix, other than that I have not heard anything so I assume its all good. Please read below if you are using the same save game from previous versions. WHATS THIS MOD ABOUT? --------------------- This mod adds a new room to the Robot Repair Centre near canterberry commons, containing the equipment required to build your own robots. Building robots requires parts that can be scavenged off robots you find and kill in the wasteland. Certain junk objects can be modified via your robot workbench into useable robotic components (such as conductors). Once built, each robot has the basic functionality of a companion NPC - they can be told to follow, wait, or patrol the area. *********************************************************** UNINSTALLATION PROBLEM / FIX (credit + thanks to Tyana rie) If any mod adds a perk, such as this mod - stopping use of the mod will cause save game crashes, even in vanilla cells. The fix for this problem is as follows: Enter console and type: StopQuest 01000EBE player.removeperk 010038D5 Then make a new save game, exit and you should now be able to load the new save without crashing. N. B. the code will change slightly depending on your mod load order, in this case the code starts 01 because its the first mod in the load order. If your still having problems, I made this to better explain how to clean your save. http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/6575/howtofixdw4.jpg If you are still finding the codes dont work, then I have calculated what codes to use for you in this picture. Use the correct codes corresponding to the mod\'s position in load order :- http://img518.imageshack.us/my.php?image=codesneededur4.jpg Credits ------- Thanks to marcmorr for noticing a bug.

⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2009 — may have compatibility issues with modern setups or mods
- Requires Fallout 3 and possibly RobCo Cert. mod to work as intended
