Invisible NPCs?

Post by l84wrk »

Hey,

I had a couple of NPCs with me (Vic and Sulik), but when I went to New Reno and hooked up with Mrs. Bishop, they vanished. I know they're still there because I get their level up message when I level and the NCR police go nuts on me because they're still armed.

any fixes? running fan-made 1.051 (i think it was 051, may have been just 05).

It's a bug. Try to 'hook up' with Mrs. Bishop again and your NPCs should come back. I think it worked for me(played with official patch).

I am quite certain that they are on the floor below.

No, going back to lower floors didn't help, but while they were invisible, they apparently didn't count against my max NPC count. Eventually I picked up Goris. And when I got the scene where Goris said he leaves because he senses trouble at the vault, poof, they all came back.

Seems to me they vanished in a sudden dialogue cut and came back the same way.

well im happy that you didnt have to reload or anything, that problem most likely wont occur again. It seems to only happen with the bishop women (mostly the wife)
