A mod that can break Skyrim in half.

[LiquidFerret]

I had a problem with a mod that's called Multiple Followers Framework and oh boy did it break my game. When I talk to a follower and press a button on a dialog box the game crashes. I thought Nethers Follower Framework was the issue. WRONG! I started fresh and when I talk to a statue of Mara, the game crashed. I removed scripts that could have had conflicts hoping it would fix the game. WRONG! Now I have to reboot the game and disable mods in Nexus Mod Manager and Mod Organizer 2. Now that I have uninstalled the game by getting rid of the folders of the game, I have get SKSE back as well as ENB for Skyrim SE. Is there any Follower mod that I won't have to worry about breaking the game at all? Because I have to do adventures all over again with a new fresh install. Now I know the game is no fault of its own but a certain mod that can break the game. There is no proof how to fix at all. None at all!

I see immediately a big red flag NEVER use 2 follower frameworks or any mods that do the same thing at the same time

The Ultimate Follower Overhaul is not wasn't working properly since it's been outdated for years. Maybe the author died or who knows where the author is at. Nethers Follower Framework may be the best option.

The problem lies how saves in SSE work a LOT of data is stored there so removing mods or mods that do the same thing are tricky

I have yet to have an issue with Nethers Follower Framework. There is Busy Follower Framework which is newer and the mod author is active.

But yeah, you gotta just delete your saves and start a new when you enable, disable, add, or remove mods most of the time.

As has been stated, it’s not a good idea to try using multiple mods that handle the same thing.

Think of it like anything else. What would happen if you tried using JK Skyrim, JK Solitude Outskirts, Enhanced Solitude, Enhanced Solitude Docks, and Redbag’s Solitude all at once with no patches?

Unless two or more follower mods are stated to be compatible with one another or there’s a patch of some sort to make them compatible and combine them - choose only one.

Personally, I’ve never had an issue with NFF by itself, and I think it’s still regarded as the best, most up to date follower framework mod. Using another mod that makes you able to have multiple followers accompany you at once isn’t needed anyways - NFF has that feature.

The obvious has been stated.

The less obvious is that there exist follower mods having functions included making them incompatible with follower framework mods. Check the mod's description and the comments/bugs to figure, if a follower mod is prone to break your game, when using a follower framework.

I might try Nethers Follower Framework mod again. Hopefully there won't be any issues since I removed other follower mods from Mod Organizer 2. Sa'chil and Inigo and that Bosmer lady are unique. UFO is like I said outdated since 2019.

As you may have already read in the Mod description, I just wanted to state something if anyone in the future finds this post.

When using Nether's Follower Framework (NFF) and also having a custom follower (Inigo, Sofia, Sa'chil, etc.) installed, do not use the import follower option. This will potentially cause issues with that custom follower.

Additionally, do not import quest followers, such as Serana, until after all related quests are complete.

to be more explicit on the modpage of Inigo it's even stated that it breaks his AI
