New Vegas Companions Mod Is Designed

This mod is designed to revolutionize the way companions are controlled and interacted with, rendering the companion-wheel obsolete and bringing new elements of team-work and tactics, with the intention of making the game look and feel more as a proper role-playing game than as an action-shooter.

New Vegas Companions How To Use A

Please see Controls section, in the description page, for more details on how to use a controller.

Moreover, he will no longer be automatically removed from the Companions Bar (you can always remove him manually, via the Companion Settings Panel).

Accessed by holding the selection control (mouse wheel by default) for one second when selecting a companion.

Instead, it is now toggled onoff for each companion, individually, via the Companion Settings Panel.

This should make it easier to identify him and his location from afar.

It is also very helpful when having two or more companions with identical names and portraits, with no way to tell them apart.

This can be disabled from the MCM panel, just in case it causes any problems (though it shouldnt).

This will eliminate any potential conflicts with other mods.

He will be automatically re-added the next time you rendezvous with him.

This is done via special dialogue options that are available for companions managed by the mod.

Note that you first have to enable this option from the MCM control-panel.

Big thanks to luthienanarion, who provided an NVSE plugin which made it possible.

To use it, simply go into stealth mode before commanding the companion(s).

JIP Companions Command Control.esp should be loaded AFTER any files related to these mods.

This is useful when having more than ten companions and wanting to make room for others (thus enabling to select which ten companions are controlled by the mod), or when having companions that do not have a working companion wheel (and, therefore, cannot be controlled by the mod) and are only cluttering the avatars bar.

This option can be reversed by selecting Restore Hidden Companions in the control panel.

It is possible (via the MCM control panel) to select either full-colour or use the HUD colour.

Using a HUD interface, companions can now be given any companion-wheel command (as well as a handful of new commands), all remotely, in real-time, without having to approach them and initiate dialogue.

ANY companion, both vanilla and non-vanilla, should be fully-supported by this mod.
