same issue, attempting to fix, any tips ? thanks in advance, this is the best dogmeat in the nexus once I crack how to make it work thansk for this addition
One thing I can appreciate about this compared to FO3 is that Dogmeat actually looks more realistic as opposed to being somewhat blocky like he did in FO3.
Still kind of a slap in the face that Bethesda nerfed his damage, but luckily there are mods that make him tougher and more deadly. His AI is still somewhat broken though, since he keeps fearlessly charging at enemies before one of them tosses a grenade at him near an exploding canister and incapacitating him.
Or just anywhere not near Sanctuary, so many mods plop companions down on the bridge, just not great for pacing and lessons the charm of (FO4) Dogmeat.
2) Diamond City/Duggout Bounty board; "I heard a dog whimpering near [LOCATION] but I was too scared to go in myself. Maybe if by some goddamn miracle you care enough, you could investigate and help out that Lone pup."
3) The [LOCATION] is too small for you to go in; 3A) -Beckon for the dog holding out a Teddy (Vaultsuit equipped, Item required) 3B) -Lay out a Dog Bowl, Dog Food, Purified Water and a Teddy and come back in 24hrs. (Items required) 3C) -Command the dog to exit (Attack Dog perk required and even then it's an orange charisma check) 3D) -Ask the dog to exit (Animal Friend & Wasteland Whisperer) 3E) -'Reason' with the dog "Come on pal, let's stick together" (Lone Wanderer perk and Dogmeat)
4A) Succeeded via 3A or 3B: Dog emerges and does Dogmeat's teddy animation.
4B)Succeeded, other: Dog emerges cautiously.
5A) Succeeded: Dog appears 'downed/defeated' you have ample chance to stimpack the dog before being asked to send this 'Lone Wanderer' 5B) Failed: Try a different method at least 24 hours from now.
This is now an immediate must-have in my load order, and I know a lore-buff who'll also be greatly pleased to see the old Dogmeat back in action once again. So thank you from him and me both.

He's here. He's finally here. The best boi.
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar.

[Companions had feelings about that]
So thank you from him and me both.
