Forum:Boone stuck

THIS IS HOW YOU GET HIM OUT To get boone back, go to vault 22. make sure he's you companion then shoot him till you knock him out before he auto ask you the ? ( i cant remember it right now) you will have to use VATS to do so. while he is down run for the exit of the vault!!! fast track to his quest point and wait there for a few hours, and he'll pop up. do his mission and everything will be ok.

So I royally effed up at repcon headquarters setting off the alarms and whatnot, so I tell Ed-E and Boone to wait outside and I go sneaking around inside. I come back out, tell them to follow but Boone isn't going anywhere. The companion wheel says follow, but yet it's as if he's stuck in wait. I've tried to go through all the speech options and everything, but he's being a douche and now I can't complete his companion quest. What the crap?

Have you tried pushing him around? Or initiated fast travel right next to him? I think the recent patch forces companions to your location when you fast travel. If all that fails you could try to use the elevator in Vault 22 to a random floor that seems to fix it for a lot of people. If you're on the PC open console with ~ and click on Boone then type in MoveTo Player, He might start following again after you're placed him at your feet. This will disable achievements until you restart the game though. --PvtNiss 07:48, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Originally I pushed him from Trading Post 188 to Novac hoping for him to trigger something. I tried fast travelling next to him and still nothing. I took the elevator down in Vault 22, and now he's just immobile inside a vault. I'm currently trying to trigger his quest by initiating his history points. I'll update with the results. Also I'm playing on 360. Wilm 08:54, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Strange enough I just had the same with Veronica. (Curse you and your contagious bugs) It appears to happen because they want to move to you and talk to start their personal quest but you are in an unreachable place or something at the time. Not even console commands worked on the PC, or at least none that I know of. I got her to talk when I told her to go to the lucky 38 and after 10 or so steps talked to her and recruited her again. She walked to me and started the 'I Could Make You Care' quest. Haven't had trouble with follow since then. I hope this works for you if you haven't already loaded an earlier save or got it to work yourself. --PvtNiss 22:15, November 18, 2010 (UTC)

Did I forget to mention that I'm a jinx? In my case though, I tell Boone to go to the Lucky 38, and he just stays put. The only reason he moves is to attack something if it's nearby. I went to take the ferry to the Fort, and killed the ferryman and afterwards instead of going to the Fort I went back to Boone and he wasn't there. I take the elevator in Vault 22 and he comes back and talks to me saying something about being in the Fort and no going back. But still he's immobile, and when I actually travel to the Fort there he is, but still immobile. I have yet to kill Caesar with him in my party and hopefully that'll trigger something with him.

I think when you went to that ferry and killed the NPC there, boon will normally walk to you to say there's no going back. So he probably wasn't where you left him since he was on his way to you. I'm not sure how to fix this then. Veronica did move when I told her to go to the lucky 38 after many attempts at trying to get her to move. After that she spoke to me and it all worked out. Killing Caesar might fix it or anything else you can do that would usually get him to speak to you, maybe after Boone initiates an conversation instead of you he might act normally again. --PvtNiss 14:30, November 21, 2010 (UTC)

I have gotten Boone to follow me again by dismissing him and telling him to return back to Novac. Once he starts to walk away just click on him and tell him to follow you again. (Djamp_G) on PS3.

I found my solution. I am on PC. (SAVE BEFORE TRY!!) "resetquest 001349a7" "setstage 001349a7 10" then ask Boone to join you again! (by alec1109 2010-12-9)
