ED-E bugged after patch!

Post » Mon Jul 18, 2011 4:22 pm

After the latest patch ED-E have stopped to follow me regardless what i tell him to do?, i have locked around the Internet and seen many more then me having the same problem (with or without companion modifications). Is there any one that know a fix for this, i cant find any one so far that has a solution for this :(

I have tested different things now and if i quit and restart the game he follows me again, but as soon as i am in a fight he stops follow me after the fight is done...the last try i did notice that he dont fire his weapon ether during the fight (he is not set in melee mode).

Are you given the option to fire him? Part ways? Then can you rehire him? Maybe that would clear things out and he'd work? There's some kind of interface at the Gun Runner's about firing or hiring companions since the last patch. I've never used it though. Maybe that would help? Good luck!

It's not the patch , this is an old bug that has not yet been fixed.

You can try firing and rehiring him , but it didn't work when this happened to me.

Are you on PC or console ?

I have tried to say to him to go home but not fiering him totaly, will try that now...I'm on PC.
Funny if this is an old bug, due to that i have never encounter this in my previouse 5-6 game plays i already have done before?

After this last patch, I had trouble with ED-E's quest triggering. I went to every known triggering conversation and did them all again and waited the right number of days in-between again and it finally triggered. I knew what to do but it just hadn't been working. Now when I do his triggers, I'm going to run through every speech option twice.

Also, if firing ED-E works, he'll head back to Primm and you can find him there.

Did found out what the problem for me was, i had made him some new Zap Guns and for some reason the game don't like that? Reverted back to his vanilla ones and the problem is solved, go figure :)

I had problems with ED-E too post patch. He sticks, won't follow, his quest woul'dnt trigger again and again. I had to send him home sometimes because he stuck in narrow places and companions could'nt pass.
