This is version 0.05 of the Fallout 3 Bundle. Apparently two holotapes for Spider’s quest were stereo instead of mono, and as such, they didn’t play when you popped ’em in your Pip-Boy. If you already have version 0.04, all you need to update is the Spider mod here.
The rest of the bundle is the exact same as before.
Tales From the Commonwealth – DOWNLOAD v1.7
Here’s version 1.7, which adds a new quest, a couple of NPC encounters, and some fixes. This means we’re almost done with the pre-planned quests, although there’s still a few miscellaneous ones that just haven’t gotten voiced yet. There’s also a few more NPC encounters I’ve been meaning to add but just haven’t gotten around to.
Point is, the next batch of quests and NPCs will take a little longer to develop, because I haven’t even written them yet, whereas these first 20 were mostly written and voice acted before the Creation Kit was even released. But we’ll see how it goes.

I think I’ve abandoned the strategy to release in large phases in favor of just releasing whenever. The reason being is twofold – the lack of testers for new quests and the need for hotfixes for the old ones. So instead of just putting out a fix and walling off untested quests, I think it’s just better to let it fly and see what happens.
Thanks to all those who reported bugs, it really helps to have everything in one place. Remember, you can report anonymously so there’s no need to login, but if you’d like to register or post in the forums, there’s a Social Login option to make registering easy.

Here’s the tenth update and with it a new torrent. At some point I might put it all into a single BSA but at the moment there’s still enough tinkering that necessitates the smaller updates. Had some report an issue with Children Fair, I think it’s a recent problem since I never used to flag things as interruptible, but this scene was, probably because of another report where the scene got stuck. Ah well, since the scene is stopped via a script, can’t see why there’s an interruptible flag, so I removed it.
All Fixes and Tweaks from v3.10:
Changelog from v2.2
– Added new skit Guns in Detroit starring Noi Sek and Audrey Reyel
– Grouped skits together for additional randomization on each playthrough
– Restored MHDT and MLEV fields that were removed by an earlier version of FO4edit
It seems an older version of xEdit removed MHDT and MLEV data from Fallout.esm, messing with vertibird flight patterns if the mod was last in your load order. Zilav was quick with the fix though, I’m just late to the news. Hat tip to Demodus for the info.
Same applies to TFTC, but that will be updated tomorrow as I’m trying to squeeze in one other quest and random encounter.
Hey fellow Dragon Age fans! As a fun little side project, I’ve made a separate Fenris Follower mod for Skyrim. He uses the same voice actor, Gideon Emery, who voiced “MaleSoldier” in Skyrim, as well as Fenris in Dragon Age II. As far as lore goes, in Skyrim he’s a Bosmer, former slave of a Dunmer Great House. He has all the same special enhanced features as AnnaNPCs (the ones not requiring SKSE).
Fenris has a full follower framework, completely separate from the vanilla system, like my Anna NPCs, including riding, sandboxing, set home, meet at inn, and more. His chat is somewhat limited due to availability of vanilla voice files, and some new lines are included that are not voiced. I recommend using Fuz Roh D’oh if you don’t already; it’s just a really handy tool for showing unvoiced lines for longer than a second.
Tales From the Commonwealth – DOWNLOAD v1.4
Due to the size of the mod, I wasn’t planning on making another update for a while but I felt like some of these fixes needed to be implemented right away, so here’s a hotfix. It adds a new companion quest and fixes the 1000 level affinity of another, so the romances should work all the way through for both characters.
I have no idea why Bethesda.net’s patch notes are limited to 160 characters, but that’s how it is so not all the changes are documented there. Fortunately, there are no such limitations here, so this is the one true changelog from v1.

As promised, here’s the open beta for Tales from the Commonwealth(see header for latest version). You can also find the Xbox version on Bethesda.net, which hasn’t been tested because I don’t own an Xbox, and probably never will. Them’s the breaks. As for the PS4 version, it will be released as soon as Bethesda figures out the whole issue with proprietary sound files, from what I understand until that issue is addressed, PS4 mods got no sound. Anyways, as with Interesting NPCs, you can report bugs by using the header at the top.
For quest and NPC locations, you can refer to the wiki or for an easy to scan list, check out this forum post here.
Next item, a hearty thanks to all who contributed. Not every quest and NPC made it into this particular version, so if you don’t see your name here it’s because it’ll be included in the second phase. And if you’d like to help out, I’m still looking for people to make custom cells, outfits, and other stuff I don’t really have the skill or patience to provide. Here are the current cast and credits:, with spoiler tags because the list is long and full of terrors:

The mod was constructed with the vanilla dialogue wheel in mind. This isn’t to say it’s not compatible with Full Dialogue mods or anything like that (although I’m not sure how they work so they may require a patch), but there are occasions where I’ve used the text prompts as a tool to add some specificity to the conversation. For instance, in this video here, you’ll notice how responses like “La Voz?” are used to bridge the gap between the generic dialogue and the specific conversation points being made.
Lastly, a few notes on the companions. They pretty much have all of their base lines recorded – companion swaps, interjections, complaints when you step on a mine, that sort of thing. In fact, you’ll notice they have more exploration lines than the vanilla companions when going to locations that are seldom visited. However, it’s important to note that since these locations don’t have specific comment triggers, and since idles don’t fire as often as they do in Skyrim, a lot of times you’ll have to actually click on the companion to get the unique commentary, as shown here.
They’ll also interject commentary during modded quests, so bringing them along should offer some depth to your questing and exploration. The other thing that’s different is I’ve scrapped some of the more gamey aspects of the affinity system. Right now, the whole thing is tied to time spent together, which goes up on its own. While this will make racking up affinity take longer, you don’t have to worry about losing affinity every time you take some drugs. You can pick whatever dialogue you want, and you can do whatever actions you want, without having to worry whether [Audrey Dislikes That].
Technically two of the three are romanceable, but one is currently blocked off since the personal quest hasn’t been constructed. That will come in phase two. For now though, I just want to polish up the quests we’ve put together so far and make sure everything’s hunky dory. That Dory, such an illusive hunk.
Here’s version 3.19. Not much in this update, but 1ndaJone5 made a nice little comb mesh/texture to add to Veralene’s inventory. Also put in a failsafe script for the mod marriage candidates, in the event the post-wedding sandbox scene gets stuck.
I think the scene is temporary anyway (it’s conditioned to only run when you’re in the cell), but it doesn’t hurt to put a stop to it, just in case there’s some confusion as to why your wifey/husband isn’t following you out the door.
All Fixes and Tweaks from v3.10:
In order to limit how often this idle is run, I set it to only play on 1 of 2 conditions, she’s a follower and it’s Sundas, or she’s married and at home and waiting for your return. Still only a 50% shot the idle will run, even then. Hopefully that will keep it somewhat rare. If Viridiane makes any more of them I’ll be happy to add them to her saylist, which is like a playlist, only you say it.
Changelog from v1:
-Added craftable workshop radio
-Added 2 additional music phases
Changelog from v2
– Forgot the transitions so re-added them
By request, added 2 additional phases of music to space out the talk radio content further. Also added a craftable radio station to the workshop. Turns out it takes all of ten seconds to do.
There’s also a way to replace the music if you’re on PC, which of course you are unless you’re a time traveler.
Lastly, if you weren’t aware of this, if you hear a long program that you’ve heard before, or a song you don’t like, you can change it by turning the radio on/off.
