Hi,

I have a problem with ED-E, the only companion I have found so far. I have a few sets of faction armor, and I want him to carry it. Problem is that whenever I try and put one into his inventory I get a message saying something like "Your companion cannot wear this faction armor" and he throws it away. He has no problem carrying other, non-faction armor.

Also, I managed to have him carry a set of legion armor, maybe because the first legionnaire I found was dead, I looted his armor and gave it to ED-E and he took it. When I tried removing it from him he wouldn't take it back. Looks like it worked before a flag or value was set for my renown with that faction (like faction unknown => value is 'null' => ED-E works, faction known => value is 0 or >0 or <0 but not null => doesn't work anymore).

Anyone else saw this? Is this supposed to work this way? Is it the same with other companions? Whether he can wear it or not he should be able to carry it in his inventory anyway. Is there a workaround or a fix?

Thanks

I think it's a bug with the faction system. Try this mod -

I had the same issue with ED-E and this fixed it right up.

Cool, thanks, that fixed it. I went through the nexus before posting this but missed it.
