Trump Companion Update v1.3

Here it is. A brand-new update for your favourite Fallout 4 companion, the president of the United States himself.

This update brings a bunch of new audio from recent speeches and interviews along with a new ‘relationship’ dialogue option to check the current affinity stage. The Trump Suit has made it into the game as well.

This will be the last update for a while. I don’t focus on FO4 modding at the moment since interest in FO4 is declining rapidly. I’ll look at it again when Fallout 4 VR releases in the 2nd half of this year.

Caution! Explosives! Note 7 is coming to Fallout 4

I was able to finish a new mod for Fallout 4 this weekend. It’s a parody on the Note 7 glitch. It adds explosive Note 7 and S8 phones to Fallout 4. But it wasn’t enough. Don’t ask me why but I had that odd need to make this whole thing kind of lore-friendly. Well, it was a partial success , but I’m happy with the result.

The mod adds an NPC named ‘Noogle Gow’ to the Drumlin Diner. You’ll get why I used that name when you hear him talk: I used a free text-to-speech engine for his voice. For the story part, he’ll claim to be a pre-war Synth built by Noogle, long before The Institute even existed. sa_note74When asked, he’ll tell the very true story about Synths and how The Institute stole Noogles technology after the war. I also used the chance for a bit of sarcastic self-critizism here I guess.

Trump Companion Update v1.2

After a few nights of tussle with the affinity system in the Creation Kit, I can proudly present a new update for the Fallout 4 Donald Trump Companion. Here’s a quick recap of all the changes made.

Affinity System

fencesVersion 1.2 introduces a basic 5-stage affinity system. I’ve included all the vanilla stages (Hatred, Disdain, Neutral, Admiration and Infatuation). Just like with any other Fallout 4 companion, the affinity level moves up or down with certain events that Donald likes or dislikes. However, the “Infatuation” level is the only one that actually does something as of now. It triggers a new dialogue that will reward you the all-new “Affordable Walls Act” perk.

Back from the dead – with updates

TL;DR: If you want to skip all the drama, you can scroll down to the release notes and changelog or go to the download page directly.

Long story:

It’s been over two months since I originally released a Fallout 4 mod called “Donald Trump Companion & Quest – fully voiced” on Nexusmods. The idea was to create a satirical impression of the current race for president in the US. Unfortunately, the mod was deleted by the staff just a couple of hours after it was posted, insisting copyright infringement.

Let me share with you my opinion about this. I’m not a lawyer, so I might be wrong eventually. But I’ve done some research and these are my conclusions. Continue reading “Back from the dead – with updates”
