The mod authors (I believe one of them have this on their mod page) state that they are safe to use together.

It doesn't look like it's moved her. It certainly gives her more AI options for where to be on the college campus, but that shouldn't even be an issue considering the fact that I tried to move her to my position via the console and nothing happened.

Every single time I get a follower, I always set it to non-essential.

I've edited the main post to show the changes I made to the load order. I also replaced the images with a text list to make it easier to read.

I was a little unclear when I said that I had disabled Summerset Isle. That particular mod was never active for this save/playthrough. I would simply never be able to load the game at all to do anything. However, you did mention ICOW which is active and does alter the college, but still, even if that were to be the cause, I'm not really sure how to undo the problems it has already created. @Algabar I didn't know about the LOOT text file, I'll look into that and edit this. EDIT: Just used the Mod you recommended, Algabar, and the game loaded with Summerset Isle installed. So I think that is fixed now. Just need the other two problems fixed!

So I have two issues with the College of Winterhold right now: 1: This is minor, but really annoying. The LOD on the actual College building is broken. It cuts out about half of the body of the college. I have rerendered the LODs via the TESVLODGEN tool with no issues other than this. 2: Faralda (the gatekeeper woman) has decided to just vanish into thin air. I've tried using console commands to locate her, but she's just gone. I had to set a quest stage just to get entry into the college. Not sure how she vanished, but she has. Cool magic at this college, eh? Lots of things vanishing... Gatekeepers, half the damn building at a distance...yep. Cool tricks. ------------------------------ Complete Side Issue that I'm having: I've been trying to use the mod "Summerset Isle," but I can't seem to actually load my character once I install it. The game loads fine into the start menu, but once I try and load my save file, it crashes. I think it might be a memory block issue (as the scrap heap memory block hits 256 on the crash), but there are times when it hits max and doesn't crash while playing the game, so I'm not sure. ----------------------------- My load order is linked in the image files below for anyone wanting to take a look (Summerset Isle isn't in there as I disabled it when taking the screenshots). ~~Mod Load Order Below (Yes, I know there are a lot there)~~

I would also like to ask if maybe there is some hidden script that affects certain characters to make them essential that isn't a part of the quest/follower aliases as there are some characters with absolutely nothing that would seemingly make them essential when looking at them in TESVEdit, yet somehow they are still essential.

Well, I do like to consider myself as an amateur VA (since I do it so much while streaming). I am also a full time uni student, but I may be able to work on some small lines and what not (really just depends on the size and deadline).

Have you verified that it isn't an issue caused by memory block overload? Tons of mods can cause the game's memory blocks to hit their default max very quickly regardless of load order. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/50471/? The videos on that mod (and the mod itself), are very informative about this issue.

~~Load Order Screenshots are supplied in the Spoiler Tags at the end of the post~~ Problem 1: Essential Followers As the topic title implies, I'm having two main issues here. Surprisingly enough, the main issue that is annoying me the most is with my followers. I have done everything feasibly imaginable to set these followers to NOT be essential (I want them to be able to die). I've even made my own mod to alter character sheets, quest aliases, the follower dialogue alias, and pretty much everything else that I could think of that would be relevant. This really is extremely important since I've been streaming a "Hardcore Legendary Skyrim" series that involves massively increasing difficulty and the sort, and followers are pretty much required if you want to survive, but to balance that out, they need to be able to die. I've had only moderate success with my mod that makes them non-essential. SOME, and only some, seem to be non-essential (seemingly the followers that are added via the "Lots More Followers" mod appear to mostly all be non-essential, or at least show the most consistency when compared with Skyrim's normal followers and the followers added via the "Interesting NPCs" mod). ------------------- Problem 2: Random CTDs. They aren't overly common, and I do not believe they are caused by memory block overloads (I know some are, but I generally know when those are going to happen, so that's not the issue). These seem to occur at complete random with absolutely no warning. They can happen in both interior and exterior cells, and frankly, seem to have no consistency whatsoever. Again, they aren't overly common, but I tend to get them at least once per each time I stream this. ------------------ Side Issue: I've been using Barndog's Magic mod (it makes destruction magic power grow as you progress the skill tree so that lower magic spells are completely useless in 3hrs), and it seems to sometimes work and sometimes not. I think it has something to do with my survival mods as being cold, hungry, etc can lower stats, but then once cured, it doesn't seem to reset the magic power (this is speculation, but it seems like the only thing that could be affecting it). Again, this is only a side issue, but if some kind and knowledgeable person has any ideas for solutions, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you to anyone who bothered to read all of this or even make a reply. I really appreciate any help/ideas here. ~~Mod Load Order Below (Yes, I know there are a lot there)~~ Sorry that the actual images are on the external link, but it wouldn't allow me to embed them on the post, sadly.

My question is pretty much that of the title: I've made new animations (for a custom spear mod), but I have no idea how to add these into the game (essentially, how to create a new animation set in the weapon tab. I'm not trying to replace any old animations, but add new ones.). I've done a little looking around, and it seems that this isn't exactly the first time these sort of issues have been encountered, yet I haven't seen a solution. I can do modeling and animation creating, but I really don't know much about coding or the like, so any help would be greatly appreciated. I originally posted this in the wrong section, so just reposted it here. Hopefully a mod can remove the previous post, and sorry about that.
