A Question Regarding Spawning .. & T3W

Post by James_T_Quirk » Tue Feb 06, 2018 7:30 am

Hi to ALL, I have a Question searching didn't quite find a answer for ....


How do you console spawn a NPC or NPC's in T2W ? Using FONV or FO3 Codes, and in FO3, placement seems a issue, since Placeatme drops the on top of you, 1 at a time, boring ... OK, Found Clicking on objects in Terrain, Guides at Placement & numbers sometimes work ..


Are Console Commands different for T2W ?


SO While I am Here ...


Suggestion : T3W is possible, just going to need a TIME DILATION Device instead of a train between T2W & FO4, Only ORGANICS can Travel thru, like Terminator, SO separating Game Engines, PA, Building ETC...


Either Starting FO4, playing thru getting to a level of quest completion, that allows QUEST to help some "Doc Brown" type, where everything goes wrong in normal fallout sytle, & you are transported back to Fallout3, to start T2W, or ..


Starting T2W in FO3, moving thru till enough quests, levels, & NEW VEGAS is owned by you, you meet up with the "Doc Brown" in a DeLorian or Portable Time Device, then he dumps you in driveway at Sanctuary, for some God Unknown reason ...


Then I could track That bastard down across 3 Maps ... lol

As always formid's depend on

As always formid's depend on what position the plugin is in your load order, many for Fallout 3 will have the first two digits different.


That said, don't break your game with console. Since I now you are doing this I won't help you with any bugs you have.

You can include a count after

You can include a count after the base id with placeatme. I do that sometimes with the molerat repellant stick quest - just drop 10 molerats on my head and get to whaling away! devil

Roy Batty, Thanks, I will be

Roy Batty, Thanks, I will be carefull with my spawning, I was once eaten by a "grue", nasty stuff, I am carefull now ..


I have worked it out, Thanks, FormID was 1 of my issues, but placement also, I find you can place at distance, by clicking on say, a rock, then Placeatme 000c3280 10, and that will work, Producing 10 Upset, eager Deathclaws in Distance, or a Citadel, they like canned meat .. But it depends on the "ROCK", sometimes it don't work, and they drop on top of you ..


So Roy, Me using console commands to have fun Test software/mods is wrong ? So when I use Wasteland Defense Mod, It it still works in T2W, I just never build water tank ANYWHERE, console "WDPLANS" to inventory, and Build a Fort anywhere on map I DEEM Appropriate, hire Guards, Turrets & Robots, just to annoy say, Fiends, for a bit, and take it down to move on, or leave it there, it may break my game ?


OMG, I will have start again, again ..

He's not saying it's wrong,

He's not saying it's wrong, per se. It MIGHT break the game because it's super easy to do something wrong when using the console. So if you're using the console a bunch, he can't offer support when something goes wrong because he has no idea what you typed into the console... not just the last thing, but EVERYTHING you typed, on purpose and accidentally.

I do Understand what Roy was

Post by James_T_Quirk » Wed Feb 07, 2018 2:35 am

I do Understand what Roy was saying, but I am saying OK, I will if I want to, it's on my HD, here, I get to play, IF I Want, ROY is not going to be held responsible, he has nothing to do with my FO* crashing, while I use console, It's all on ME ...


ALL respects to Roy & jlf65, my issue has been resolved, as far as Console Commands go, Thanks ...

The console is for debugging

Post by RoyBatty » Wed Feb 07, 2018 6:27 am

The console is for debugging the game, that's why most games disable it. People do all kinds of horrible bad stuff, like placeatme named NPCs trying to fix stuff which just breaks it worse.


Also, be careful in Zork, Grue's are nasty and have bad breath.
