📋 About This Mod
CUSTOM ROBOT FOLLOWERS 2
Claptrap Only Edition
Claptrap:
You will find Claptrap at Camp Golf (see screen shot), just approach the barrel and wait for something to happen. Claptrap comes with his own unique rifle the Corrosive Renegade along with a bucket load of ammo (he's trigger happy). He's happy to follow you (even more so if your female) , is fully voiced and location aware. When dismissed he should remain where you leave him and he also has cloaking while sneaking!
Issues:
Claptrap is completely custom made by me including animation files and this means he is presently restricted in the weapons he can use, currently these are:
Corrosive Renegade (player can use this also) 12. 7mm Sub-Machine Gun Assault Carbine Marksman Carbine All-American Service Rifle 10mm Sub-Machine Gun Sawn-Off Shotgun Big Boomer 9mm Pistol Maria Silenced . 22 Pistol 12. 7mm Pistol
Q and A.
Q: Why Custom Robot Followers 2 A: With 4 robots plus variants the file download section was getting crowded with esp's.
Q: Why only Claptrap in this issue? A: Claptrap is a special case due to his animations, unlike other robots I will be creating many more animation files to expand the weapons he can use and just to add extra character to him.
Q: What weapons are you planning on making available to him? A: I decided to limit him to the 2 handed automatics, rifles / shotguns, and pistol / revolvers. The other weapons are just way too big for him to handle and that also means I will restrict some of the rifles he uses also, like the sniper rifle.
Q: What about weapons from other mods? A: Creature weapons are limited by a weapon list so to make these available to him for use 2 things will have to happen, one they will need to make use of the animation files he currently has, and second it will require NVSE for me to provide a dynamic way to add to his list. This makes for a fair bit more work and would mean a variant esp dependent on NVSE, adds to the reason why I am only having him as the sole robot for this mod. There are some very cool guns out there and I fully intend to do this.
Q: What about the other robots on your to do list? A: I haven't forgotten them, and I plan on adding them in Custom Robot Followers 3, starting with T3M4 and a variant of my Flying Mine Bot (because they're cute).
Update:
V1. 2, Fixed weapon attachment issue that could leed to CTD with inventory access, expanded his available weapon selection, added JIP Co
