Custom NPC refuses to spawn in-game. Help?

[CausticRKS]

Is there anything that could prevent an NPC from spawning PERIOD? It's driving me nuts. I got it to work ONCE, but after I make ANY changes to the npc, it'll totally break it. I'll even re-insert the NPC in ones of the Inn locations I placed it after I've made any (very minor) changes, and it STILL will not spawn. I don't understand. I never had these issues modding New Vegas. What am I doing wrong?

Did you try a clean save?

Actually, I found something rather interesting after doing a little more fiddling around.

 

I created my actor to be used as a follower. The actor would appear, but if I saved the "dunShroudHearthPhantom" script or "defaultGhostscript" on the actor, he/she would not spawn under any condition. I'm not really sure why. The second I take either of those off... the actor would spawn.

 

Why would either of those scripts, which SHOULD only make your NPC look like a phantom, mess up spawning? Very strange.

I have found a solution for my problem. I didn't select what effects to use in the actor's script, so the game had no way of knowing what I wanted; so my actor wouldn't spawn. If anyone is having the same problem and need more specifics, let me know and I'll post some screens of what to do.

I have the same problem.

I dunno what to do. qwq

I made a custom NPC, nice and dandy with items, skills, perks, etc.

I have her a spot to be found (A seat) and I placed her on the map screen to where she is next to the seat.

:/

Herlp?
