Companion Mod for Fallout 1?
Is there a mod I can install for more options with the Companions' gear loadouts? I want to equip my companions in power armor. I saw one mod but it required me to start a new game. Is there one I can install which I won't have to restart?

I've made it through the whole game with companions in FIXT and only had to reload a save three times to keep them alive but I hear the mileage can vary. Don't even try to keep Dogmeat alive, though, he's completely worthless the moment you step into a certain place with rocket launchers.

They're not scripted to be of any real use, so there's no need to obsess over them. They're not 'companions.' They're meatshields with really bad stats, that you can load down with loot. Even with the best armor, Katja and Ian will both die in two hits mid way into the game.

Thank you Facepalm and Rain for the input. I think I'm almost through the entire game so I'm not going to worry about it. I'm just going to do one play through and move on to Fallout 2.

You could give this a try. I believe its the same version as used in Fallout Fixt, without installing the entire Fixt mod compilation. I haven't tried it though.
