  • DESCRIPTION

  • Backstory - Somewhere in the wastesland, someone has chanced upon an heirloom collection of antique armour. Most of the antique armour is ornate and offers few advantages in an age of power armour. However, among these is a most peculiar set of armour that looks like it was meant for a medieval noble\'s war-dog... It just might come in handy...

  • FEATURES
  • **
  • Made Dogmeat a shiny set of platemail with chainmail mesh. The armour gives Dogmeat a damage resistance of 50.
  • Dogmeat\'s HP and damage output is scaled. HP starts at 500, and reaches 1000 at level 20. Damage should scale as well, but may still be a bit weak at Hard difficulty. Please let me know.
  • Implemented dogmeat\'s Dialogue commands from Fallout. Eg: (I wonder if I can get Dogmeat to follow me differently?) used for distance command.
  • Extra \"Find\" commands. Armoured Dogmeat now knows how to find armour and skill books too.
  • New Combat commands. Accessed by the dialog \"You are one meeean-looking dog, aren\'t you boy?\". In Fallout 2, tactics is not accessed via dialog, but when you talk to Dogmeat, you will see \"\"You see one meeean-looking dog\". Options are what\'s available in Fallout 2\'s tactics tab. I also thought it would be cool to get different sort of feedback from Dogmeat depending on the commands (both in the dialog box and audibly):
  • 1) Use cowardly tactics. Dogmeat acknowledges with a whine. He will run away to lure enemies off.
  • 2) Use defensive tactics. Dogmeat acknowledges with 1 bark. He will only fight back if attacked. Will retreat if outmatched. Note: even if he is hurt, he will still attack if the enemy is much weaker and Dogmeat is able to win.
  • 3) Use aggressive tactics. Dogmeat acknowledges with 2 barks. He will enage enemies normally, but will retreat as per the defensive tactics.
  • 4) Use berserk tactics. Dogmeat acknowledges with 3 barks. What original Dogmeat does, attack regardless of his chances and never run away.
  • New Distance commands. Accessed by the dialog \"(I wonder if I can get Dogmeat to follow me differently?)\". This is how you change Dogmeat\'s follow distance in Fallout 2. Options are authentic Fallout 2 distance commands too. Feedback is similar to combat options.
  • 1) Stay far away from me. 1 bark
  • 2) Keep a medium distance. 2 barks
  • 3) Stick close to me. 3 barks
  • A 10% chance of bowling down enemies. (This has been removed due to incorrect implmentation. Base damage and critical chance has been slightly increased to compensate)
  • Armoured Dogmeat is also essential. Please let me know if any of the options do not work properly under certain situations.
