Arcade Gannon is gone after vault 87/raven rock. Also, two companions?

I was doing the main FO3 Quest, and Arcade was my companion. I got up to that point in vault 87 where the Enclave does that pulse grenade thing and kidnaps you to Raven Rock. I think your Companion is supposed to be dismissed at that point?

Anyway, I continued playing, but Arcade seems gone. There isn't an "arcade" marker on the map, I don't have his perk, I went to the lucky 38 and tried dismissing him, it didn't do anything, he isn't in the presidential suite, he isn't at the mormon fort. I tried using player.moveto with his ID (I was in the mormon fort originally), and it dropped me in the capital wasteland in the middle of nowhere, not near Raven Rock or Vault 87/Lamplight/etc, but there was nobody nearby.

How does TTW handle this script, anyway, with regards to followers? The part where the enclave kidnaps you, I mean.

Also, I have one other minor question. After Raven Rock (since Gannon was gone) I joined up with Fawkes since he appears outside. I then did the rest of the main quest and watched the FO3 end slideshow. After waking up at the Citadel, I found Paladin Cross (I didn't look for her, she was just in the room nearby) and she asked to join me and I said OK, and now she and Fawkes are both following me around (This was before I realized Arcade Gannon was gone, I had assumed he was in the mormon fort or lucky 38). Is this a known TTW issue, having two companions? I took them to the Lucky 38 while I was searing for Arcade Gannon, and just to see if it would work, asked Boone to join me, and he said no because I had somebody.

I'm only using one mod besides TTW and it's a minor radio mod that shouldn't effect this, TTW is installed properly and I have the steam GOTY fallout 3 and my specs are fine.

Arcade was definitely following me around until the Enclave kidnapped me.

I have an update about that, though. I tried using player.moveto his id, and it placed me in the middle of nowhere. But I tried using it again, from where it put me, and then it took me somewhere ELSE (to right outside the Super Duper mart), and he was there, for some reason.

I dunno what's going on, lol

If you're using TTWFixes, it errorneously overrides some TTW companion handling scripts with companions from both wastelands to script from only FNV. Might be the source of the issue perhaps. I made an override for the offending scripts making TTW.esm conflict winner and haven't had an issue so far.

Is that included with the TTW installation? If not, then I'm not using it. The only thing not included with the TTW installation I'm using is a radio mod

I don't think that Fawkes and Cross thing is a TTW glitch. I got Cross and Fawkes the same way playing vanilla Fo3 before.

No,you didnt. You cant get both of them at the same time unless you use a Mod.

I'm pretty sure I wasn't using a mod since it happened on the Xbox 360 version. What happened was after exiting Raven Rock I got Fawkes as a follower, then I went to the Citadel and before the final battle I talked to Paladin Cross (who I never talked to before) and she went into her little speech about how my father was a great man then I asked her to be my companion and she agreed.

And that further proves your a liar unless you used a glitch to do so.Which is the only way to get all the companions on the console version.

I never said it wasn't a glitch ! I just said it probably wasn't a TTW glitch because I experienced a similar thing in an un-modded game. Now how's about you get your facts straight before you start calling people a liar.

That's enough of that fellas. It's entirely possible that this is a vanilla FO3 issue, though I'm not saying it is or isn't. Either way, it isn't worth arguing over.
