Follower problems, Please help!!!

[Neocyte]

I attempted to download a patch that was suppose to lower the chances of crashes during fast-travel. I forgot to uninstall my mods. I went on skyrim and was baffled with confusing so I deleted items in my skyrim directory that I thought were defective including the mods. I then went on steam and pressed the view integrity of game cache and fixed almost everything. My problem is everytime I try to talk to my spouse, Anneke Crag Jumper, her dialog is constantly in the follower menu (Follow me, trade, part ways, etc) and even though she's a recruited blade member, she still goes to mine in darkwater crossing. My follower at the time, Erik the Slayer, has the opposite problem He won t show his dialog options when I try to talk to him. Sorry for the long description please respond as soon as possible.

 

P.S- Here are some of the following mods I had.

1. Spouse can live anywhere (Nexus)

2. Followers keep up (Steam workshop)

3. Followers equip anything (Steam Workshop)

4. Navi (Steam workshop)

well, i will try to be shot but sometime i talk more than a women, so it's to explain a little thing,

 

1 -i don't know what is this patch you have downloaded supposed to stop crashing, for me (and it's my (oppinion) you don't need it, but i have never view a crash caused only by the vanilla game but whit mod it's possible, this patch is like a mod, so a chance to grash your game,

2 - you use spouse can live anywhere, you use this for what?, make living you wife in a cavern?, you can already make her living whit you in the vanilla (you go whit her in any of you house and you say her to stay here, but we have each our way of playing so ok,

3 - Follower keep up, why?, you have already this in the vanilla version, they will follow even when you are in horse the follower run like the wind, they follow you and if you are to far away or in the up of a rock, they appear on your side, or if you don't view her when you pass a door event if they are in 5 mile they will appear on the same time of you in the other side of the door, sometime on you, but anyway, Lydia can make bumping whit me when they want Ha ha Ha!, the only time it's not working it's when they rest stoke somewhere,

4 - Follower equip..., ok, but have some trouble whit it, the fix are not make again, so it's can cause problem, and it's posiible you lose some stock,

5 - Navi - They change the sound of the magic when you cast, ok, if you have not other mod they touch sound of magic..

 

only in this four you have three mod they touch follower, they can be compatible i don't remember, but they mush be in good sorting, but it's depending of your other mod two, if you have only her i suggest you to disable follower equip..., and try if it's change something..., and..., i don't remember what i want to say but anyway begin by this..., if it's not work, try to disable (not delete) one after the other until you find which mod they make this, but i don't know all the story, because it's more complexe, remember the follower don't go anywhere, they have some place like labyrinthe or other place, the follower wait you outside,

 

 

 

for you follower (your spouse) you say they have always the same list of menu of talking, but what they want they have to say more, i am lost on it, me my wife have never say me happy birthay or other thing, the same menu of you?, if you don't want to have it in your menu you need to say her to stay here, do you have a mod they make you able to have 100 follower and more or other thing like that,?

I have this same problem but I didn't load anything new. I was placing some items near my follower and one fell. While trying to pick it back up, holding E, my follower was near and I might of been clicking and holding on her. Not sure. Anyway, now I can not engage her in dialog. I can go into cmd mode and tell her to do things, but she will no longer open the dialog menu. Help please.

Mods that affect followers can leave lasting negative effects if not uninstalled properly. You may need to restart a new game and reload your mods. In the future, it may help to read and follow the mod author's installation instructions in order to prevent similar problems.

Try to travel to another location, if that doesn't fix the problem, try to disable/enable your follower via console command. This should reset everything.

What commands would do a complete reset on follower?

It depends on which follower mods you have installed. If you haven't installed any, just type into console "setstage dialoguefollower 400", this should dismiss your follower. You should also get a "dismissal-message". If you have installed any mods affecting follower behaviour, deactivate these mods an try to load your savegame - any follower should return to their usual AI behaviour. But probably they are still in "teammate modus", which means they sneak and draw weapons simultaneously, as you do. To stop that, click on that npc, while in console mode, and type "setplayerteammate 0". If all of that doesn't work you could try "resetreference", which completely resets that specific npc to its origin state, including the inventory. So be careful with that as you could loose things you "stored" in that npc before. If you can't get into dialogue with your follower to get your stuff back, click the npc and type "removeallitems player".

Another command you could try is "resetai", which clears any AI behaviour of that actor. For more info about console commands:
