📋 About This Mod
Hi everyone this mod works very much like sharing caring companions or extensible follower framework I currently have 20 slots available and you recruit them using rings.
The rings are located outside red rocket truck stop close to the gas pumps inside an ammo box!
:Installation
Unzip my followers extended .rar file into your main fallout 4 data folder and activate using the usual ways of using mods!
Currently the rings are only able to be equipped to npcs who you can trade with so like settlers or actual followers all you need to do is equip them with one of the rings to recruit them and unequip the ring to release them.
You could also use console commands to force an npc to allow you to trade with them there are plenty of example of how to do that on the internet.
You should not have to update or anything the current follower framework is the same all the old one it just uses a more user friendly way of recruiting npcs.
Also I am going to be releasing this for xbox one and ps4 since I am pretty sure it will work so just be patient I have some bug testers that are going to help me.
This is my mod i would prefer people ask before including it in any of their work.
Have Fun!
