» Fri May 25, 2012 9:00 pm These companions are designed to be plug-and-play, so no fancy quests or conditions on hiring them. I just wanted a bit more variety and I like designing characters. There are 7 right now, but I'll probably keep adding to them. All have custom classes and combat styles but none of them have been extensively tested except Sylgja, who seems to be handling herself just fine.
I've picked the options I think are most popular. You are, of course, free to change any of them to your liking. You're also free to use them as the basis of a more elaborate follower mod if you find one you like. If you have a request for a specific race/gender just let me know. I'll consider creating one.
- all companions can be married (this sometimes requires a change of voice)
- set to essential so they won't accidentally die when you hit them
- maximum level is 100
- followers will level with the player--you just need to sleep and their stats will update
- the DialogueFollower quest has been edited to remove the hunting bow: while this mod is active, all followers will now use any bow you give them, but you must supply them with arrows
- the hunting bow fix also fixes the carry weight bug where followers lose the ability to carry items over time when you dismiss and rehire them
- followers will be wearing ordinary clothing when you meet them; you can remove this from their inventory and give them something else to wear
- all followers have the Lightfoot perk so that they won't trigger traps
- followers will return to their starting location when you dismiss them (ie. Sylgja will return to Shor's Stone, Erdi to the Blue Palace, etc.)
