Moonlight Tales - Werewolf followers?

[KiseeraCey]

I am sooo frustrated at this point. Okay, so we know that the dialogue option for followers to "consume werewolf blood" Doesn't work. Nothing happens. Zip.

 

It's been stated, so I KNOW it doesn't work, but no one seems to be able to tell me WHY it doesn't work. Is that so hard?!

 

I want to know: Why doesn't it work? Is there a fix for it? If it doesn't work, why is the dialogue option still there? And if it will never work, HOW can I turn my follower into a werewolf without pissing them off? If I attack them, they attack me!

 

I thought I managed to get around it once. With Faendal, I attacked him, he attacked me, I ran. He caught up later and was seemingly fine with everything and was acting as a normal follower. He was infected and I got him to turn when I did. Woohoo!

 

BUT! He wouldn't attack anything. I'd be doing all the fighting and he would just follow me around like a big ugly puppy. Also, (whether he was in wolf form or not) If I attempted to talk to him while I was in wolf form, BAM! Instant enemy.

 

What the hell is going on?! DX I'm pulling my hair out here!! SOMEBODY, for the love of Sithis, (don't judge me) HELP!!!!

Same problem, exactly. Since it has been 4 years, and no one has responded, I am giving this a bump.

YES. I've had Ondolomar as a follower for a while now, and have tried just about everything under the sun to force transformation -

 

- Giving werewolf blood potion, after which gives options for when to transform and even which skin to use. Trying all options yields nothing.

- Adding him to player-werewolf factions via console

- Adding Beast Form ability via console

- Having him equip Hircine's Ring

- Full moon has no effect on him whatsoever (I have the chance is set at 100% transformation on Full Moon nights).

 

I've been able to get random Thalmor at the Embassy to transform though...
