XBOX1: Restore Codsworth to Pre-DLC form/reset NPC?
Post Body

Hey folks. I done goofed. I need some help.

So, I had to do a system reset/reinstallation recently, long story, but basically I did everything the way I was supposed to, put everything back just right, game running better than before, ghost space sorted.

BUT one thing I missed was that a mod for Automatron parts (Mini Liberty Prime Automatron) Codsworth was wearing became unselected when I wasn’t looking because the Xbox didn’t download the Automatron DLC when I queued it.

I downloaded the DLC manually and went on my merry way. About two days worth of saves later, and I notice that Codsworth is missing his head, right arm, armor. Sure enough, it was that Liberty Prime parts mod. I quickly reenabled, but it was too late. Codsworth is broken and trying to alter his parts in the Robot Workbench causes Crash To Desktop. Fortunately, I only had those modded parts on him and one custom automatron, so Currie and Ada are both fine. But looks like I might have to take what’s left of Codsworth out to Spectacle Island and leave him with a nice view to rust out husband days.

I have tried:

  • The Eyebots Automatron companions workbench debug holotape

  • Replacing Codsworth with various reskins, Synth skins, Codsworth Prime, etc, they probably don’t work because he has already been modded by Automatron DLC and they were meant for Vanilla Cods

  • Using Cheat Terminal to make companions non-essential, killing him and resurrecting with Lazarus - he comes back still broken (i.e. his head and arm are still missing)

  • Spawning in replacement Codsworth with Spawn NPCs (he is invisible or just disappears completely)

  • Deinstalling Automatron DLC completely and reloading (he is just invisible again, obviously the game doesn’t have a reference for him without his automatron form)

I’m gonna try killing him and bringing him back again but then trying him on the Robot Workbench and see if that debugs it, but I don’t think it will.

It’s clear to me now that I have to disassociate him from the DLC to get him back. I know we don’t have any console commands on XBOX1, no ‘recycleactor’ or anything, but still; any ideas?

Gonna try that ‘Codsworth Automatron Fix’ some people use to make him able to wear a hat again. Probably won’t work either because he’d likely still be moddable by Robot Workbench.

Does anyone know of any way I can restore an NPC to their default, base game version on XBOX1?

TLDR: gotta debug Codsworth, reset him to default

Thanks guys, hope you can help. All the best.
