Custom Follower Mod

[NineTails1mod]

Greetings one and all.

 

I am sure this has been a topic since the beginning of time for this site but have patience with me for a minute.

 

 

I have 3 - 4 ladies a rotate through as my main character and what I wanted to do is actually make them into followers so that I could have all of them at once. haha

 

Now I have watched all the videos on how to make a custom follower and even tried to read all the posts as well (Videos are easier, reading disorder and all but after 53 years you just learn to live with it, ha) but there are no new video's (2015-16 newest) and the ones out there skipped steps like with the SSE Nif optimizer that I was able to peace the missing parts together over time taking it to LE and then back to SE after completed and poof my fist ladies appeared in the game.

 

The problem comes that I can see her from a distance and she looks like what I wanted, but if I try to approach her the screen goes crazy and if I push forward in first person mode I can see it seems there are meshes missing in her face. I have gone back and redid everything for 3 days now but this does not change and I cannot figure out what meshes are missing or pointing in the wrong direction.

 

Is there an easy way to figure this out?

 

I have found solace in the Lazyfollower mod which is great but wanted to actually accomplish something here, hope that makes sense.

 

If I can figure her out I would like to share her and the others on Nexus

 

I used

Creation kit

Nifscope

Nifmerge

SSE NIF optimizer

I don't know if you've seen Project Proteus already, but it aims to make that job a bit easier for you.

I have not used it, so I can't say whether it's user friendly or not, but I thought you might be able to make some use of it.
