JeremeW5257 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Ok...I have 6 female followers. Lydia is the main one. Jordis is an "animal" one. I can equip each of them with whatever I want and they use the weapons I give them. The other 4 followers I got by adjusting their "factions" and "AI packs" with the NPC Editor, so they are not "true followers", but they fast travel with me (which is all I care about). I can equip them through the console commands, but every time we engage the enemy, they want to fist fight instead of using their weapons. They are set to "setplayerteammate 1" so they sneak and draw weapons when I do, which is even stranger. Is there a fix (hopefully through the console) that will make them "equip" their weapons in battle? I know the answer is probably...Wait for the Creation Kit, but hoping there's a quick fix before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the answer is probably...Wait for the Creation Kit, but hoping there's a quick fix before then. Sorry I don't have a solution... I have the same problem with Lydia, but sheathing - un-sheathing got her to use weapon ...disliking that I removed sword and she used her bow ....damage was not so good.....so I enchanted some "heavy" gauntlets with "unarmed" {I got crazy enchanting level} and she was killing with one punch...good for a laugh!.....I run solo 99% of the time ..but it gets a bit boring without any player comments. So I don't think it is because you {consoled} "setplayerteammate 1" ...just another Bethesda BUG...am running 1.3 patch but noticed there is 1.4...maybe it's been fixed, GL, tc.

JeremeW5257 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Share Posted January 10, 2012 Lydia and Jordis (my main follower and animal follower) will actually use the weapons. It's just the other ones will not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunnie Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 Lydia and Jordis (my main follower and animal follower) will actually use the weapons. It's just the other ones will not. I don't think anyone is going to be able to fix this for you until after the toolset releases. The game was never designed intending to let you directly have more than 1 follower and 1 animal follower at any given time (places in the game where you have 2+ temp followers are scripted). A lot of things will become doable once we we have the toolset, that is just not possible or not understood now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
