📋 About This Mod
Introduction To me, being able to recruit a companion to accompany you through Fallout 3's endlessly entertaining campaign is one of the areas in which the game really shines. Unfortunately, I've always felt that there are too many NPCs in the game that would make perfect companions but kind of left behind from all the fun. Also, the companion system itself seems to lack something that would make it stand out as a worthwhile feature in the game, as you could only hire one follower at a time. In response to these issues, I've spent an absurd amount of time applying a few much needed additions and changes to the companion system of Fallout 3, with the ultimate goal of adapting it into something coherent and worthwhile.
Features 1. 7 fully voiced companions made from Vanilla NPCs: Harkness, Sydney, Ronald Laren, Rory Maclaren, Herbert Dashwood, Bittercup, and Mei Wong have been turned into perfectly-integrated companions, all with interesting and unique methods of acquiring them and without any convoluted questlines (just like the Vanilla companions, see section below on how to acquire them). The new followers function EXACTLY like the Vanilla ones (i.e. Wait, Tactics, You're Fired). Additionally, I've introduced a few new, interesting interactions that only take place when the NPCs are your teammates, while maintaining interactions from the Vanilla game (see pics).
2. New Charisma-based follower system: A complete overhaul of how you can get more teammates, based entirely on your Charisma stat. Essentially, the number of followers you can have directly corresponds to your character's base Charisma. In other words, changes made by Chems and clothing effects aren't applied in determining the number of potential followers. Keep in mind that Dogmeat doesn't apply to the "Potential Followers." You can always recruit him no matter what.
3. Changes to Karma restrictions on Good players: It's never made sense to me why buying a slave would require you to be Evil. I mean, if your caps are good, Clover should be accessible for purchase to you even if you wouldn't be a slaver yourself. With this mod, followers no longer care about what your karma is when you attempt to hire them except for Fawkes, Butch,
CCP - Conventional Companions Pack turns 7 familiar NPCs into fully voiced and lip-synced companions with lore-friendly recruitment methods. It also adds new interactions and fixes to the follower system. A solid choice for players wanting more immersive companions, though it's from 2015 and may need compatibility checks.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 321 endorsements and nearly 7k downloads.
- Fully voiced and lip-synced companions add real immersion.
- Lore-friendly recruitment keeps the game world believable.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015 – may be outdated for current game versions.
- Only 7 companions, so not a huge pack if you want variety.
For Skyrim players who want more immersive, fully voiced companions without breaking lore. Great for those who enjoy follower mods but prefer quality over quantity. Skip if you're looking for a massive companion pack or need up-to-date compatibility.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if your game version is compatible with mods from 2015 – you may need to patch or use a compatibility mod.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to avoid overwriting files and to easily uninstall if needed.
- Since the mod adds follower system fixes, load it after other follower mods to ensure its changes take effect.
