phantom follower

[dharvinia]

recently I started cleaning up my Skyrim game, you know add some mods take away others.

One of the mods I removed was my own custom follower using Iona as a base. I removed the mod because I had created a situation where the follower was always following me even though I dismissed her. At first this was great because I could have up to three followers at the same time, the down side I had a follower that was always setting off traps and alerting enemies to my presence....sort of a "loose cannon" as my Father called it.

So the bottom line....is there some way I can access my character's factions and turn the follower faction off or reset it to zero short of starting the game over.

Have you tried this console command?

 

set PlayerFollowerCount to 0

 

Save your game first. For the command to take effect, change cells. Or save again and reload.

Yes, thank you. I managed to find the command this morning while looking over the console commands.

This is a good example of read your manual first.

Thanks again!
