Alture

I can confirm that this fix worked for me with Valdimar. What was interesting was that my broken Vald had a different code than the stock one. I used the placeatme code and it spawned a new stock Valdimar who is now serving as my ward. The old Vald was still chilling out at my place, unable to be talked to so I disabled him like above and everything seems to be working well for now.

Ive just recently ran into this problem, except reloading at a previous save does nothing. I can talk to Valdimar once, and then I lose the ability to interact him. Resetting him through ATF doesn't work, disabling then enabling him in console works, but doesn't fix the issue. I can go back several hours into my game and it's the same deal, like he's been ruined retroactively. I'm very upset as I've had him for nearly my entire play through and had built him up with tons of great gear and a great rp angle. The only upside is that I can get all my gear back.

I've narrowed it down to Realistic Lighting, or CoT misbehaving with something, and I've tried BOSS and then manually placing RLaC at the bottom of the list (like it says in the readme) but it's still having issues. Once again, any assistance would be massively appreciated.

So, in light of DB's imminent release, I finally broke down and purchased DG through steam. Now, I already had about 35 mods installed when I activated DG so I went through every single of of them and any that weren't immediatly compatible I disabled, and the ones that had options for DG I kajiggered so they would work properly. I instantly had CTD issues with my saved characters, so I simply erased them and started anew. My first run through as a Vigilant of Stendarr (using Alternate Starts) worked fine for about 20 minutes, then I CTD'd near a modded horse. So I disabled that mod and tried again; almost the same amount of time passed and I CTD'd again. So now I decided to disable all mods and do a "clean" run through. I started a new character and sat through the vanilla wagon ride..ok...no problems. So I installed Alternate Starts again so I could streamline the process of checking mods, and everything still worked. I slowly went through every one of my mods until I got a good working order with some disabled. This was fine for a short while (around 45 minutes), but then I CTD'd again. I've started to fray at the edges with frustration as I can't figure out which mods are conflicting. I know for a fact that DG is the issue (at least partly) because all was fine before I installed it. I would list all my mods, but it's quite a few, so if there's any easy way to get a list I could copy/paste then please tell me, otherwise I will just manually do it. Thanks in advance for any help.
