📋 About This Mod
I tried a few different bugfixes and none of them worked, and the latest patch didn\'t fix it for me either so I decided to fix it once and for all. It is not as fancy a fix as the others and it won\'t let you talk to Ranger Andy if he is bugged. But it will kick start the companion quest, and it won\'t force you to use a console command. This mod adds 2 pills into Rauls inventory. Raul Quest Pill 1 & Raul Quest Pill 2. Just click on Raul and open his inventory. Take pill 1, then eat it and talk to Raul. Then carry on playing. The quest should start soon and you should not need pill 2! But if he doesn\'t start the quest conversation with you after a few minutes, take his second pill. That will bump him along one more step and I guarantee he will talk your ear off after that. And thats it. Sorry it is not elegant, but it worked for me, and it might work for you. Good luck.
