SOLVED, KINDA. I solved it by using two scripts in the same magic effect. One with AFT and one with everything else. In that way if AFT fails to load, well it fails to load. Everything else loads no matter what. It feels a bit clunky but this seems to do the job. And this seems to be a hard nut to crack. When I do have AFT on I guess moveto runs twice on the same actor as well. Nothing noticable in game though. It looks at least for me as it does run only once.

Ok you’re probably not active anymore but thank god for nexus not deleting any posts… It works!!!

@keeronsmods A bit late in the discussion but I have the exact same problem with my follower. Did you manage to solve this?

I see. So basically re-do all the properties?

How would I go about doing that? What do you mean with bring down the MagicEffect? I mean if I activate the AFT mod it does work. What doesnt work is if I have it disabled in vortex in other words if I dont have the plugin in the data folder.

Thanks, I'll try that. So I'm best off using skse? The thing is that I tried remaking the magic effect, and spell. Didn't work. I even replaced it with a script that actually works, but for followers that arent waiting. And even if I used that script in a new file and placed it in the SummonAllFollowers Magic Effect it didnt work. The only thing that is working in that regard is if I use the exact same script file for the one that summons players that arent waiting in the magic effect for the ones that are suposed to summon all followers. But then I cant do anything with it since it belongs to the other magic effect. To clarify: I have two magic effects with the exact same settings and a spell and spell book attached to them separetly. WellSummonFollowersMagic and WellSummonAllFollowersMagic. WellSummonFollowersMagic has a script attatched with the name WellSummonFollowersME.psc WellSummonAllFollowersMagic has a script attatched with the name WellSummonAllFollowersME.psc If I use the script WellSummonFollowersME.psc on both of the magic effects it works but it works the same way since it's the same script. If I copy paste the content of WellSummonFollowersME.psc into the WellSummonAllFollowersME.psc it wont work. How could it be that it is a single file that work but not another file with the exact same content? Is it something wrong with the file that actually work perhaps or what is going on? This is driving me crazy. I have restarted my computer several times, started from a clean save when trying using Alternative Start Live Another Life. I have coc:ed right from the menu, I have quicksaved and loaded, and oh, I have the Creation Kit Extended installed as well. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/71371/ I even cleared my cache on the computer. Is there any other cache or anything that i'm not aware of that may cause this?

Ok. so I've figured out why it returns 0 even if I have AFT enabled. It's because of as quest in if (Game.GetFormFromFile(141763, "AmazingFollowerTweaks.esp") as Quest) It should be if Game.GetFormFromFile(141763, "AmazingFollowerTweaks.esp") So now it returns 1 at least, if AFT is running. But the bigger issue is still there. Why doesn't it recognize that the plugin isnt loaded and acts on the if statements. All I want is that if AFT is loaded, listen to the AFT functions, if its not loaded. Listen to the other functions. Also 've noticed that it does actually work as intended if I disable it in creations. But not if I disable it in vortex. In other words I can't detect if someone doesnt have a plugin installed. Only if they are not using the plugin they've already installed. What would be the best way to achieve what I want to do if not like this? This is the code in its entirely as of this moment.

Hi, I'm in the making of a script that summons all followers. I try to make it recognize AmazingFollowerTweaks. But it just gives this error as soon as I try to cast it without having AFT enabled in vortex. [01/26/2024 - 11:40:00PM] warning: Property DialogueFollower on script WellSummonAllFollowersME attached to Active effect 1 on (00000014) cannot be initialized because the script no longer contains that property [01/26/2024 - 11:40:00PM] warning: Property CurrentFollowerFaction on script WellSummonAllFollowersME attached to Active effect 1 on (00000014) cannot be initialized because the script no longer contains that property This is the whole script. It should return 0 or 1 in notifications if the script exists or not. But it doesnt return anything if the script actually is activated. And yes, I've set the properties in CK. But here's the thing. Whenever I have the if AFTScript part in the script and try to access the properties through CK it just says Errors encountered while attempting to reload the script. So it is almost like CK can't communicate with the script whilst AFT is referred to. It gets weirder. Because it returns 0 if I have the script activated.

I solved it by using a placeholder npc that i attatched a voice type to. Then I put all the voicefiles with the approriate name in mod/voicetype/apropriate_name.wav/.lip. Somehow the reference from the other mod picked it up and used the wav and lips.

Hi! What would be the best way to make two npcs from different mods talk to one another? So far I've been able to import the first npc to the second mod with getformfromfile() and put it into a refrerencealias with forcetoref. But the referencealias doesnt have a voice type and it only seems lke the first phase is initializing since thats the only one that is subtitled. I really just want to make one npc comment what the other is saying, when it is saying that.

Hi! I can try to help you. Or perhaps walk you through it if you have blender 2.49b? There might be a way to do it in nifskope but I’m not that good at nifskope. More of a graphics guy than technical changing values type of guy haha. let me know how you want to do

Hello again! I'm learning a bit blender and modelling at the moment and. All is good but I have noticed that my textures are first of all quite large when I create them, a seamless 2048x2048 of a tree bark becomes 64 mb. Which I guess is understandable because of how DDS works. As I undersand, pngs are "internally zipped" and dds aren't for instance, so if you were to zip a dds, the file size of the zip would be quite small. However, I've tried to compress my dds with all the above, dx1,2,3 which I understand is what new vegas supports but it wont show in geck nor the game. It looks fine in nifskope, but that is pretty much it. I've tried Photoshop plugin https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-texture-tools-exporter, GIMP which I believe had built in support if recall correctly. Even https://vvvv.org/contribution/dds-converter which is listed by nexus on their getting started page. What have I missed? I even disabled all mods, opened the nif in mini geck and still no luck. Even tried to apply the texture to a different mesh. Even tried a different image with the same procedure.

I see.. but then again, it is a 13 year old game. So in that perspective I think we got quite a lot to work with though. I'm quite new to modding but come to think of it. How does evelators move in the game? I'm thinking if you can "move" objects, why not npcs. But maybe then they might not even walk, just floating away

Haha! Just recently got back playing FNV again aswell, even started modding. Through my hunt for modding recources I found this one from Jokerine. https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/62671?tab=description Haven't played it yet but Jokerines stuff are solid!

True! Maybe you could achieve the same with purely conditions in packages and “activate” it depending on how you want to trigger it. https://geckwiki.com/index.php/GetInCell? Or if you wanna get more specific I think you need to use triggerboxes like you’re already doing. What is considered natural for you? That they aren’t teleporting? Then I suppose packages is your only route.

Have you watched this one? You have to use blender 2.49b. It helped me a lot. Tammers things are awesome as well.

Hi! What is the best way to get your own face onto an npc that actually can make expressions and talk to you? If I were to make it for the PC it’s pretty simple since there are no lipsyncing or any real moving parts involved. Just a skeleton. But for npc’s it becomes more difficult since you have a bunch of other things to keep in mind. Tri facial animations, egms, egt’s etc. The easiest way I can think of right now is to use a combination of Facegen exchange, facegen ripper and importing headhuman into Facegen. that way I can transfer the Facegen properties via exchange and ripper to an npc and then just replace the texture that Facegen modeller photo fit created. But since importing custom meshes, UV-maps etc only is possible through Facegen’s ridiculously expensive modeller enterprise program it seems like a no-go. So I’m wondering if there are any smart souls out there that could figure this out? I just want my face onto npcs, how can that be so hard after 10-15 years, haha! it has been done for Skyrim SE: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/41094

On top of my head I’m thinking through packages. See https://geckwiki.com/index.php?title=AddPackageAt https://geckwiki.com/index.php?title=Category:Package_Functions you can set everyone that should leave be in a certain faction. Then do an if statement that says if the npc is in that faction. Add this package. Which makes them travel to the specified location in that package.

Thank you so much. Just sent you a DM.

Hi! I’ve grown up with this game and I absolutely love it. As I suppose most here do. I started fiddling with modding for it about two years ago. Just to see what I could do with it. Then I forgot about it and for about three weeks ago my passion for modding rose from the ashes so to say. I’ve picked it up the skills necessary and think I could manage my way around GECK pretty good. I have a decent understanding of how things work. I love stories and think that is the driving force of any good creative piece of art. So that is what I decided to create. A quest mod focused on storytelling in its rawest form. No super-trooper armored enclave soldiers with big guns or bounty hunting like mod. Just a plain old good engaging story. Much like I believe Naughty Dog aim to do with their games. Since the mod I’m currently working on is my first big mod and one that I take very seriously and have close to my heart I don’t want to spoil to much of it. But I can say that it involves a kidnapping of a woman’s two children and a cult-like vibe. Since I do take this very seriously I sincerely do not want to step on anyone’s toes or use any illegal assets of any sort. I’m just a guy who wants to show my appreciation for the game and tell a story. I have tried to navigate through resource mods and see which I can use and which I have to ask for permission for. But it is difficult and I feel a bit restrained. I come from a graphic design background and love to draw but I can’t manage to do this mod AND learn blender or any other 3D making software. Even though I would very much like to learn to do it myself later on. So my question to you guys is as the title says: Did this peak your interest and is there anyone who would like to help out to create this dream of mine become a reality? Things I haven’t found and would like help with: Old burning candles. Preferably animated and lit. But also in an off state. pedestals Altars Misc clutter for an underground village custom Creatures (if I’m not able to use monster mod without having to make it a requirement) Probably a lot of other stuff I can’t think of at the moment. Other things I need help with: voice acting Someone to brainstorm ideas with. If anyone likes creating custom houses, caves, world spaces etc I’m interested in listening to your ideas. For that matter, if anyone want to contribute to anything, anything at all. Be it, writing scripts, fleshing out side quest or what ever. Please DM me or write here. This is as I’ve been saying, something I’m really passionate about and want to finish in the best possible way. I can see my vision for it and I can see how I would go about doing it - almost haha. Which makes it so exciting. Also, I have never posted anything here, I have no idea how it works with people helping each other out in the modding community. Please educate me if you feel that it is necessarily. Thank you. //Oscar
