📋 About This Mod

Followers Hire Continued Developed by Jalor Maintained by Degrelescence Current Version 1. 0 http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9184 0h Followers Hire Continued allows you to obtain more companions then would normally be possible. There are four possible ways of going about this: 1. FollowersHireContinued-CharismaCheck-KarmaCheck.esp allows you to have more companions then the default (1) with a new restriction based on your charisma (see chart below). 2. FollowersHireContinued-CharismaCheck-NoKarmaCheck.esp removes the Karma check from obtaining companions. You also can have more companions then the default (1) with a new restriction based on your charisma (see chart below). 3. FollowersHireContinued-KarmaCheck-NoCharismaCheck-NoCountCheck.esp removes the limitation on companions allowing to have as many as are willing to join you, provided you have the appropriate Karma for each. 4. FollowersHireContinued-NoChecks.esp allows you to have as many companions as exist. It also removes the Karma check from obtaining companions. NOTE: Do not have more then one esp active at a time as they will conflict. ------------------------------------------------------------ The number of companions you can have in Charisma checks is determined by the calculation below: Charisma : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Followers : 0 1 1 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 Dogmeat does not count toward this calculation. This should allow for all the characters in original Fallout 3 at a Charisma of 10. If your Charisma is not high enough to obtain the requested companion you will receive the message: \"You can only have one follower at a time.\" This is not a bug, it is intentional, even if you have 5 followers at the time. ------------------------------------------------------------ Installation: 1. Extract the .esp to the Data folder in your installation directory. 3. Set one .esp to active in the Fallout Launcher (make sure the other 3 are not there or not checked) 4. Enjoy. ------------------------------------------------------------ Troubleshooting: 1. Open up FALLOUT.ini in My Documents\\My Games\\Fallout 3 with Notepad or other text editor and locate the following line \"bInvalidateOlderFiles=0\" and change it to bInvalidateOlderFiles=1. 2. Make sure the timestamp on the .esp is more recent than your FO3 installation. 3. If you cannot get the checkmarks to stick in Data Files in the FO3 launcher, locate the following file: XP : Documents and Settings\\\\Local Settings\\Application Data\\Fallout3\\plugins.txt Vista: Users\\\\AppData\\Local\\Fallout3\\plugins.txt (The folders might be hidden, so enable \"Show hidden files\" in your Windows settings.) If the line \"FollowersHire.esp\" does not appear, add it after \"Fallout3.esm\", without quotes and on a separate line. ------------------------------------------------------------ Uninstallation: Uncheck any .esp related to
