    How to turn your player character into a follower?

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi all, is there a way to turn your player character into a follower using the creation kit?

    I would like to use one of my previously played characters as a follower for my new hunter gatherer character, could you please advise on a tutorial that will help me achieve this aim. A video tutorial would be great but if there are no videos then a text tutorial would also be great.

    Many thanks.

    Hi all, could I get some suggestions as to the best mods that allow me to build my own home anywhere I choose. I want to be able to have a usable garden or small farm. I also want the greenhouse and all the features from the Hearthfire DLC (I have this DLC + Dragonborn and Dawnguard) .

    Many thanks

    Skyrim Creation Kit: Custom follower creation

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi all, could I please get some recommendations for tutorials on creating custom followers with the Skyrim Creation Kit.

    Detailed tutorials on how to set the look of my follower, spell list, behaviour, dialog etc. Also info on how to release a created follower as a download on the nexus. I'm interested in creating a deep character with a lot of dialog so I can interact with them.

    At first I just wish to create individual followers who fit with the playing style of whatever character I am currently playing.

    My long term goal is to create a small hunter gatherer tribe who can set up camp, be assigned tasks such as cooking, foraging, using tanning rack etc. I am currently big into "realistic needs & diseases", "Hunterborn", "Frostfall" so would love to have my own small nomadic hunter gatherer tribe.

    Many thanks.

    My current favourite mods.

    These 3 mods are simply amazing when used together: Frostfall, Hunterborn, Realistic needs & diseases.

    They have added a new dimension for my personal style of play. I'm big into survival, foraging, hunting, camping in real life so as a newcomer to skyrim I was blown away by how cool these mods are. If you have not tried them, you just have to give them a shot if you want to play a hunter/gatherer type character.

    I also posted a request in the mod request section for a craftable canoe/kayak mod so you don't freeze to death when trying to get to Islands and places only accessible by water. If you run the frostfall mod, you stand a good chance freezing to death in the water.

    I was just looking for such a mod. With all the new emersion mods, like frostfall, hunterborn and realistic needs & diseases this would be a great addition. I'm surprised that with so many hunting mods this has not been implemented.

    Craftable kayak/Canoe for frostfall users

    in Mod Ideas

    Posted

    Hi, Would love to see a mod that adds craftable Kayaks/Conoes for users of the Frostfall mod. I have seen the mod that adds drivable boats but would prefer to craft a hide Kayak/Canoe. As we all know, Freezing water can be a killer, yet some locations are only accessible by crossing water. I know there are magic items that can deal with this but as I play a Nord Hunter and like the emersive game and RP I avoid most magic. Would also be very cool to add trolling for fish as an option to the boat. Be able to craft troling lines and hooks, then when out on the water drag them behind the boat.

    Would love to hear others thoughts on this subject.

    Vampire face fix?

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Robbieblack

    Go to your Skyrim data folder. Then go to: textures/actor/character/male (or female)

    If you don't have a texture replacer for your NPC's yet, I recommend Better Females - Natural Edition but there are many others. Now there can be 4 different files for the head, but only "femalehead.dds" is necessary. However, if you find something like:

    "femalehead_msn.dds",

    "femalehead_s.dds", and

    "femalehead_sk.dds"

     

    Keep them. Now copy these files to a temporary folder and then simply add "vampire" to the end of head for each of the files. So it would look like this:

     

    "femaleheadvampire.dds" ----->This is the only one that is necessary, however, it won't look as good without the other files.

    "femaleheadvampire_msn.dds"

    "femaleheadvampire_s.dds"

    "femaleheadvampire_sk.dds"

     

    Then copy these files into the same texture folder: textures/actors/character/female...and voila! Done! You can delete the temporary folder when you are done.

     

    Many thanks, this is a great help. I am using the UNP http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/6709/?

    Female mod. So will the files you mention be named the same?

    Also, will this fix the sunken face problem? I found a forum post about this but the links dont work. I was thinking of downloading RaceMenue http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/29624/?tab=2&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmodfiles%2F%3Fid%3D29624&pUp=1

    In the hope that it will have extra sliders to help get rid of the sunken cheeks, what do you think?

    Again, many thanks for taking the time to help me out : )

    Just replace the vampire face textures with your regular face textures.

     

    It should be placed in the same folder called "maleheadvampire.dds" or "femaleheadvampire.dds" This applies to the normal maps and specularity maps as well.

    Thank you so much for the reply. Could you explain in a little more detail what exactly i have to do, what folders my regular face textures are in etc?

    Male body mod question (Better Males)

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Robbieblack

    Thank you for the reply. I'm sorry about my questions. I'm new to skyrim and mods. If I wanted a normal body hair & stubble and beards & muscles what files do I need to download? I'm very confused as to what ones I need to get. I'm not interested in a nude version either.

    Also what file do I need to only change my character and not all NPC's?

    Hagraven character creation

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    I am afraid I'd not know where to start with that, but I think it's a really cool idea. I use youtube a lot to find creation kit tutorials. One of the better ones I've found is Darkfox127. I found a tutorial by him about creating playable races, hopefully you'll find some things in there, and on youtube in general that help. Good luck

     

    Thanks for the reply. The video looks very complex. I'll try adding a request in the mod request section. I have seen in game you can change into a werewolf & Vampire with extra powers etc, so it would be cool to be able to change into a Hagraven with extra powers ;)

    Male body mod question (Better Males)

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi all, I have some questions regarding "Better Males" mod.

    Does this mod:

    1. Add better muscle definition?

    2. Have extra hairstyles & beards?

    3. Change all NPC's or just your character?

    4. Does this mod work at character creation and/or with the showracemenue?

    5. Can I use this mod on to alter a previously created and saved character that was made before adding this mod using the showracemenue?

    6. I am not interested in a nude or smooth body so are there any other male body/hair/beard mods I should consider?

     

    Hope someone can help me better understand what this mod does, I am new to Skyrim & Mods so please forgive my lack of understanding.

    Female vampire creation and face fix

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi all,

    I like to switch between playing styles so I like to create a number of different characters to play. I currently play a male Ranger/Hunter style character and am also going to create a male Conan style barbarian character.

    I'm a huge fan of underworld movies so intend to create a vampire female character also. The build will be a dual wield dagger/stealth for standard combat, but I will also be dabbling in necromancy.

    But I'm having reservations, I have read that becoming a vampire drastically changes the look of your character, skin change, sunken cheeks etc. I don't want to take a lot of time creating a character exactly as I want them, just to have them change once I become a vampire. Could anyone recommend a simple fix/mod that will prevent my character from changing they're apearence.

    I have all 3 official DLC plus I will be using these mods:
