Surprising Bug - my female character suddenly became male!

Recommended Posts

A bit of a background - I started a new game with a ton of mods, this time around I'm learning how to merge them all properly.

So far, so good. Got 210+ mods running and many armor mods were merged up and working fine.

-----------

One of the mods I had been using was [same Sex Couples and LGBT](https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/25254?tab=description) - heh, don't judge.

I'm playing as Nora so it would be weird for me to be attached to a male spouse.

I also had [Amazing Follower Tweaks](https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/26976/?tab=4&&navtag=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Ffallout4%2Fajax%2Fcomments%2F%3Fmod_id%3D26976%26page%3D1%26sort%3DDESC%26pid%3D0%26thread_id%3D6014643&pUp=1) which has an immersive feature to revive your spouse.

SSLGBT also has a compatibility patch for AFT. This means I'll have a female character (Nora), a female spouse (automatically named Natalie), whom I can revive later on as I move forward with the game.

-----------------

So I went ahead with my new game. Merged a ton of armor and weapon mods. Put them all ready in my lockboxes in Sanctuary, then saved.

Next up, I went ahead and installed a few more mods for some extra features like Quests, Power Armors, and Gameplay Changes.

Sorted everything via LOOT. Loaded my save....

And Nora suddenly turned to Nate!

--------------

Now here's the weird thing - I used the sexchange command. So if I was playing as a male character, using sexchange would turn him female, but he would still have a male voice.

This time around, sexchange turned Nate into Natalie... with a female voice!

I went back inside Vault 111 and found Nora in the Cryopod!

So yeah - for some reason - maybe a mod, or just changing the load order, also switched my character's gender and identity!

---------------

Now the issue is that I do need to have the load orders changed because AFT is expected to be placed at the bottom of the load order (and below that is the Compatibility Patch for SSLGBT).

I put SSLGBT > AFT > Compatibility Patch - as the last three esps I have.

And still it did not work.

--------------

Now I'm not so sure how to fix it. Hours of spawning my merged armor pieces and organizing them, down the drain.

I obviously cannot continue the game further because it might cause more bugs.

Anyone else had a similar issue?

I've got, and tested the mod that is being referred to in the OP.

It's an interesting mod. The new camera angles in the Character Creator, and being able to see morphs and presets applied to both the characters there, makes for some really great working tools.

The author did some really extensive work, on making that mod work the way that it does. Unfortunately, that much extensive work, it's also very easy to get conflicts with some of the scripts involved in it. It's one of those mods that you REALLY have to start the game with a BARE MINIMUM of mods, and pretty much avoid any other mods that have scripts that fire as soon as you start the game.

Also back to the original posting..... yeah. For some reason, if the mod stops working, or goes into conflict, or is uninstalled/deactivated.... the wife reverts back to Nate. Regardless of which you choose for the playthrough during the CC. Or at least in the dual femme version. Dunno why that is.
