Creation Kit Follower Disappeared Help1

[Tomination22]

Ok, so i've been working on my orc follower for the past few hours (my first). I made him perfect, saved him, cheked the list of actors to make sure he was there, then exited the kit without adding him to a cell. when i reopened it, my beautiful Lognar and accompanying custom combat style was gone! can anyone help me find the missing follower?

Did you open the CK, choose your .esp to open, and also set it as the active file? Best to start with the simplest things first, I guess.

yeah, and when i open it, it looks as if i never touched it

Did you save the plugin? I don't see that in your recount of what you did. Making the record and ensuring it is in the list does not mean it has been saved to the plugin.

 

Another possibility, making the actor record and doing all the changes without having OK'd and closed the record can and does result in missing data on that record. It is always best to OK out of each new record and reopen it to ensure that it will take whatever changes you give it.
