Thoughts on AFT

[Adipose]

I'm quite fond of Amazing Follower Tweaks...as are a good many players. One of the aspects of the mod that I've come to appreciate is the provision for making someone a follower. Since I'm using the mod "Flower Girls" one is able to find women of "negotiable affection" in most of the major towns/cities. If one wants to, ahem, rescue them from a life of sin and degradation it's possible through use of AFT. I believe the term is "intervention". The result can be unpredictable. The first one I recruited had very low stats...fives all across the board. However, after about three or four level events she began to level with me and became a very useful follower. However, I'm now running her with two other retired ladies of the evening and she's not yet moved off her fives, though the others started off respectably leveled and have continued up with me. Go figure. Mod results have a tendency to be unpredictable and it seems to me that the more one uses the more unpredictable they become. Unexpected consequences and all that. Also, the bigger a mod is the more unpredictable the consequences will become...at least in my experience. Frex, I'm using a truly massive armor mod now and while it's a very good mod, and I'm only running about 98 mods, a small handful of the npcs are running about with pale mauve gloves and boots. My understanding is that this indicates a stressed video card, stressed memory allocation or ... ? Oh well, back to mod management. Bless Vortex, Loot and FNIS.

That color usually indicates missing textures or bad texture file path.

 

Blackface or black textures is the usual indication I'm getting a vram prob, IMO.
