Hi TTW
I have found an issue concerning getting Butch as a companion after Trouble on the Homefront. During the quest he is not in the Vault ( When I target him with the Prid command he gets targetted but any movement commands moves me to hwere he should be but hes not there) and then after the quest he is also not in the Muddy Rudder. IS he simply not in the game? what can I do to fix this?
I found Butch dead in Vault 108 in the cloning lab (in one of the first bedrooms on that level). Perhaps Butch took up the adventuring life and the Gary's took him out (heard no fight on entry to level, and he had no equipment on him)...
Thought it was weird (what in the name of goats is he doing here?), so I thought I would mention it since you mentioned Butch acting up...
Huh thats weird. but even if you found him there, wouldn't console commands make him appear in front of you? I did so and he simply does not appear.
Never tried. Just went "how odd is that?" and continued exploring, lol...
Butch didn't interest me as a companion, and haven't done the Homefront quest yet - too much other stuff to do... I know where his dead body is in case I want to do the quest, so meh.
Just to clarify, you console yourself to him (so an area transition and loadscreen) and then, where you end up, you can't see him?

Sorry for bumping this thread but I have the same issue, I use prid and his ref id and I see he gets targeted by console and try moveto player but he doesnt appear, moveto refid moves me to the place i supposedly moved him to, so he's pretty much invisible and cant be seen or interacted with.
resurrect him perhaps - could be dead.
Try using the Enable command after you prid him
