Monday, January 30, 2012 - HTML Version is up with in Depth explanations and images to help guide you.
Through the many guides and tuts that I have read and went through, I never found one person that stated how to get the companion wheel to work. I reverse coded the Bethsoft companions and figured out the ins and outs. I cut out a lot of the redundant coding and presenting this to the community that helps me learn a lot about modding the game.
Please leave comments so I can better support and refine this tutorial.
As a "Thank You" to all the modders out there that share with us. I share my first file hope to contribute as you have contributed to us.
