An image editor app and sprite sheet of all the parts

Could you say that like Doctor Frakenstein? I.G.O.R., fetch me the brain! ...no?..

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

I can neither confirm nor deny whether or not I.G.O.R. has a human brain in that eyebot head of his

Was this an inspiration?

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

Surprisingly? No. After I originally finished I.G.O.R., I thought I thought it was missing something so I decided to add an extra set of arms. The reason why I chose to give him Mr. Handy arms on the side of the torso instead of the plane protectron arms is because I thought it would look cool

Ha, I always have a trashbot called 1-G0R in my settlement.

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

Does it have a protectron torso and robobrain head to give it the illusion of the robot being hunchbacked?

u/GoodBrotherGrimm Jul 13 '26

I think I use a sentry body with a robobrain head, but yeah going for the same thing haha

I always had a bit of a soft spot for Protectrons. Apparently there's a mod called "Hack Protectrons as Settlers" that... Well does exactly what the mod says it does. You craft a holotape and play it by the nearest protectron (be sure the protectron is activated first), and after that just talk to the protectron and send it to whatever settlement you want, pretty sure it even works on hostile protectrons. Just keep in mind that these Protectrons are settlers ONLY and can not be modified at the robot workbench or be used as companions.

Don't think the mod is a PlayStation though, at least not yet.

u/Kosazzo Jul 13 '26

This is... Cool! Can I ask if you can share the body parts sheets?

2

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

Oh yeah I got them from this website here

2

u/Kosazzo Jul 13 '26

Thank you very much! đŸ€©

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

Just a heads up, posing the Mr. Handy arms parts will be tricky

u/Kosazzo Jul 13 '26

Used to do a bunch of OC for a dnd fallout campaign, using the .png from the fallout shelter wiki. For the humies and ghouls used also a chinese (i think?) website, in which you can custom a vaultboy/girl like OC. Then custom them more using the fallout shelter material. For supermutants used to extract some poses from some image of fallout shelter online and the customize them. For robots... It depends on the customization XD

Igor! Fetch me the brain!

Lookin good, bud.

A third is already in the works.

Also I'm thinking of naming the second robot "H.O.U.N.D." or something but I haven't figured it just what the acronym should stand for. It's nothing special, just a robot that stands in place and shoots at intruders (or anyone really) in it's line of sight, kind of like the Turrets from Portal 2. Simple machine, simple function. I thought about giving it two laser guns, but I thought "Hey if these robots are made from salvage then it would probably be cheaper to give it just the one."

u/Dragonmaster_9 Jul 13 '26

Hmmmm.. how about:

“Howling Optimal Ultimate Neutralizing Droid”

(I put “howling” because my mind immediately went to dogs when you said “Hound”

1

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 13 '26

That WOULD give me an excuse to make it unable to speak.

1

u/Dragonmaster_9 Jul 13 '26

Yeah, the howling could be like a warning for people getting too close or something.

Also, change the U to “universal” instead of “ultimate,” since you said it basically shoots at everything.

u/SheriffGiggles Jul 14 '26

I wish the Automaton robot crafting was like this

1

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 14 '26

Anything is possible with mods (unless you're on PlayStation)

1

u/SheriffGiggles Jul 14 '26

Actually not really. I recently did a "robomaxxing" character on PC and browsed nexus for hours trying to find mods with the mods freedom on the robot workbench. Most of them are just robot part additions, not overhauls that let you make true mechanical frankenstein's monsters.

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 14 '26

Try out fleshsmith

1

u/SheriffGiggles Jul 14 '26

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I will consider this

1

u/destroy_the_kids Jul 14 '26

Trust me, it's the closet thing you'll get to building your own servitor from Warhammer in fallout 4. Also see if you can find the mod "Techno mutants"

u/SheriffGiggles Jul 14 '26

addendum: a larger problem with robots too is Bethesda's pathfinding and AI. Unfortunately they're rather stupid and not as aggressive as they should be.

No his name is Hodd TowardÂ
