So, as I encountered (a) problem(s) with my game uninstalling/deactivating all mods, ENB, and resetting the inis didn't couldn't make vanish so I couldn't really pin down anymore where it came from, I decided to reinstall the game.
That problem (just in case someone has a solution for later as I'm quite sure it's gonna turn up again eventually) was the character shadows making me appear "floating", as the leg shadows were either gone when in a certain outfit/armor or at least the feet shadowsnot showing up at my feet. Looking for a solution for that I had encountered setting uiOrthoShadow (or something close to that) to =3, which once resolved that, but after further modding, it didn't anymore. I couldn't figure out what was the culprit.
So, as I said, after trying all else, I just uninstalled. Now I'm left with a 14GB Data folder still in the FO4 install folder. As I really reeeally wanna keep my mods and savegames (which I backed up, I mean the characters/playthroughs as they are), I am now wondering, can I safely delete that Data folder and reinstall my mods with all the stuff saved in my NMM mod profiles/my NMM FO4 folder? I mean that's 50 Gig of data in there, do I need to additionally backup the entire game's Data folder? I pretty much installed all my mods by either the NMM or at least the Bethesda thing, I think there ain't even anything in the Data foolder I put there by manually installing.
Please, someone, enlighten me.

Same here, and of course it's the one thing no one ever replied to.

Hello, I think I may have found a fix for PC. I had the same problem you did so I did some troubleshooting and I found out the glitch might be caused by having to many saves. I got my game to work by making a new folder called backups than going into Documents - My Games - Fallout 4 - Saves. And copying a whole ton of saves into the new folder and deleting the ones in the original folder. (keeping in mind that any save files that were glitched should just be deleted) This has worked a few times now so I figured I'd post it. I hope it works for you!
This one worked on Skyrim, tryin' it on FO4 now. Actually, I have good hopes for this.

Hm, I'm not sure if the Old Orc can be made into a follower, as I think his factions do not allow it, but I will see what I can do later and let you know :smile:
EDIT: Done, seems to be working fine. Due to the new relationship so he'll be friendly, he will also make you blood-kin when you talk to him.

I had to spawn him with the console so his usual dialogue about death did not appear, so I'm not sure if it will appear in the actual encounter or not. But in any case, you know what he wants already :wink: He can be married now, but he is not essential, so perhaps, with your help, he'll find the good death he wants so much!
I didn´t even know there was a request forum for mods...now I can make that old man my follower-cool.Thank you for making that.
Gotta reinstall FO4, what do I do with the Data folder?

Thank you. I shall proceed to do so, then. I got Steam in a directory other than the basic C:/Programsx86-ish thing, is that what you mean with an alt Steam install folder? I pretty much did go for the beginner's guide (well I followed S.T.E.P.) back in Skyrim days, now with FO4 I was just happy everything worked quite well even with just the NMM and some LOOT here and there. Cleaned one mod with FO4Edit and even that wouldn't have been necessary also forgot what else it was for, let alone WryeBash. All in all, for the amount of mods I have, so far it just frickin' worked. I think the entire Beth modding community deserves a medal for what it's become since Oblivion days.
