📋 About This Mod
CHANGE DOGMEAT INTO 19 COMPANION CREATURES! He transforms into everything from a cat to a Mirelurk Queen, each with dialog options to follow, stay, dismiss, trade, and activate items. Except for the cat, they all fight with ranged or melee
CHANGE DOGMEAT INTO 19 DIFFERENT COMPANION CREATURES!
"GO4 (Gameplay Optimizations for Fallout 4) Dogmeat Changer" is a great mod for those who want to have different kinds of creatures as companions without downloading many different mods. With one mod, you can now easily change your companion Dogmeat into 19 creatures, and then just as easily change him back into a German Shepherd. The companions you change him into are true followers who answer to commands like stay, follow, trade items, go there, pick that up, and more. Plus, with the latest update, he can do ranged attacks as a Bloatfly, Bloodbug, Deathclaw, Mirelurk King, and Mirelurk Queen.
The animals, insects, and other creatures he can turn into are an Attack Dog, Mongrel, Mutant Hound, Mole Rat, House Cat, Brahmin, Yao Guai Bear, Gorilla, Radstag, Radscorpion, Radroach, Bloatfly, Bloodbug, Stingwing, Mirelurk, Mirelurk Hunter, Mirelurk King, Mirelurk Queen and Death Claw. After transforming, Dogmeat looks, sounds, moves, attacks, and acts as expected. The cat licks its paws and cleans its fur, the Radstag attacks with its horns and hooves, the Yao Guai stands up high on its hind legs and sniffs the air, and the Mirelurk King acts like the monster from the old classic film, "The Creature from the Black Lagoon!"
🆕 WHAT'S NEW
(1) Dogmeat can now do ranged attacks when he takes the form of a Bloatfly, Bloodbug, Deathclaw, Mirelurk Hunter, Mirelurk King, and Mirelurk Queen. The player must give him the "weapon" and "ammo" before he can do the ranged attacks. (2) The weapons and ammo are in Institute ammo cases added near the workshops at the settlements Sancturay, Red Rocket, and Bunker Hill.
