📋 About This Mod
7pm4uQDE0OI Special thanks to Cocktimus Prime-Zer0 for this playthrough! Be sure to visit his channel! His videos have great potential. YpkW8eN6B-E Huge thanks to AlChestBreach for featuring this on his channel! ZFGGaNcFTCM This mod adds three NEW dungeons to explore and loot, five unique quests, and a NEW FOLLOWER Zadok. Each of the dungeons has it's own unique quest including a quest which rewards you with a new follower upon completion. All cells were carefully nav-meshed and optimized so expect few bugs and glitches in this mod. The follower includes fully scripted and lip-synced(voice-acted) dialogue, along with the companion wheel. Zadok's follower scripts were scripted in the same quest in which all followers are in the G. E. C. K. So he should definitely feel lore-friendly. All voice acting is not mine. And some of the people asked not to be credited. Please vote and endorse as this is my first mod.
- -----WHAT TO LOOK FOR------
- -On your map look for three markers named the following: Concealed Bunker, Camp Iron Sand, and Zadok's Ranch. Within those cells you'll find three of the quests.
- -You'll find another quest given by a child named Jace. He is located somewhat NE of Zadok's Ranch standing on an intersection of a road.(If you can't find him, simply pull up the console with "~" and type the following: coc jacelocation)
- -The new quest from v2. 1 will be found in Zadok's follower dialogue.
I apologize for the previous versions. The files were not properly organized.
Thanks to bugsthatbite for helping me fix multiple bugs and for correcting me on my file structure, making this mod easier to install. ;) Thanks to AbyssAutumn for listing out the bugs.
I've noticed nav-mesh bugs occur when I use COC commands in this mod (perhaps only within the custom cells). So use them at your own risk! =P
Please report any bugs or errors by simply posting a comment or PM me.
Also, please feel free to send in pictures and/or playthroughs of this mod. I would be happy to view and approve your content as well as featuring your videos on this page.
Have a nice day! :)
