follower bug

[IITyRaNTII]

my followers are experincing a very weird bug. when im running they run behind me and keep up.... but 3 seconds into me running, they walk casually as if we are in no rush to get where we are going lol

I'm not sure whats wrong but this suddenly started happening. I've tried uninstalling mods I got around the time it happened and apparently that wasn't the issue....its annoying cuz I have to stop and wait for them to walk to me every 3 to 6 seconds to catch up. if anyone has a solution I would greatly appreciate it and my followers would too lol thx

1. Are you using mods? If so, what organizer for your mods are you using? NMM? MO?

2. If you are using mods, are you using LOOT to help sort them? If so, go into your LOOT program and find the 3 dots in the top right and inside that menu is a "Copy Load Order". Click that and post your load order here.

3. Be advised, whenever you move/alter/delete a mod, you can screw up your active saved game. Skyrim bakes information into your save, so make sure you are loading an earlier save from when you started deleting mods and make sure they are still there for skyrim when it goes looking for those scripts. If you do want to move/alter/delete a mod, consider starting a new game or using a script cleaner program for skyrim.

4. If you are on Vanilla skyrim, I'd suggest a clean install: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/906390-cleaning-skyrim-for-fresh-install/

I was thinking maybe I have too many mods? I have merged packs too so I'm going over 255 esp limit. I also noticed whenever I clean my save, it seems to get orphaned scripts again as I continue to play without me altering any mods

1. USKP is NOT compatible with AFT v1.3x -> v1.5
2. Make sure that none of your mods are:
- A mod that increases the number of NPC followers you can have
- A mod that specifically targets the 5 Horses that you can PURCHASE.
- A mod that improves the AI of NPCs when they are following you.

There are some outdated mods you are using. Some of them are considered "dangerous" but I wouldn't think they are causing your problems. I would guess it is the fact you are using USKP still and some of your many, many followers and AFT prefers USLEEP

I successfully switched to usleep but it didn't work or change my follower issue. it was working well at first but then the issue started again. but atleast I have usleep =) I'm not sure what to do from here though. any suggestions? and if not I appreciate the help you have given me so far and I thank you!

[snelss0]

Go into your TES5Edit and see if there are some conflicts between your mods. I believe there are some youtube videos showing how to do this if you don't know. It might point to which one(s) are causing the issue.

sorry I'm late getting back to you. apparently the issue was I had too many followers registered with aft, which at first didn't cause any problems. so I reset aft when prompted to and they followed me like normal again :) I really wanted to thank you for taking the time to help me, that means a lot man. I really appreciate you replying to me, you are awesome!!
