Any way to make NPC’s not hate you?
NPC’s are just bombarding me with lovely dialogue like “What do you want? You’ve caused enough trouble.” or “I don’t like talking to someone who holds their honor so cheaply.”

Is there a way to reset their dispositions toward me? Already tried getting myself thrown in jail and serving my sentence, that didn’t do anything. No guards try to arrest me on sight so I don’t have an active bounty.

Civil war quest is done. Imperials won yet it was imperial soldiers who I first noticed the negativity from. Best I can figure is that maybe I hit someone during the civil war battle somewhere but is there seriously no way to get rid of that?

No way hitting some random person during the war is the cause when I've accidentally killed people before.

What mod were you using as I've not played Skyrim in about 2 years but don't ever remembering this happening.

Hit them with your two handed broad sword.

Kill them if they aren't essential npcs.

Also, you'll be hated by some regardless which sides you joined.
When you've finished the civil war, there are like 20 exiles jarls and their household members in a room... So, I don't know what you are expecting...

You can do this by console commands
setrelationshiprank player 4
player.setrelationshiprank player 4
But not all npcs like Revyn Sadri will return back being nice again after you screw him over on his quest to return the ring

By the way.. this wondering what did you do to piss them off?

OP, Khajit suspects that Khajit has an answer. Most likely, it's because they have a low Disposition toward you. This is independent of crime, because although stealing from somebody is one way to lower their Disposition, it's not the only way to do that. It can be done by simply by belonging to a faction that NPC doesn't like.

So how to increase their Disposition toward you, and thus make them like you again? Safest way is to do quests.

Not using one specific mod. Tempus Maledictum pack from Wabbajack.

It's not the deposed jarls (obviously they hate me, whatever). It's just any random citizen/guard. Any city I go to about half of the people are in the "Dragonborn, you saved us from Alduin" mood while the other half are in the "I hope the gods smite you" mood.

Unfortunately this isn't really an option at this point because I am quite deep in this playthrough and most quests are done. About only ones left is a couple of modded ones I either am not interested in or haven't gotten around to doing yet.

I did play around with these commands to a degree. Interestingly enough when looking at people's disposition toward me in the console it showed a zero for the number, not liked or hated. And that applied to both those who wanted me dead and those who worshiped the ground I walked on.

I only briefly tried to alter these numbers (finding faction id's was annoying) but it didn't seem to do much. They went from cursing me to just not saying anything (I could still choose dialogue options, shop, etc.). So that ended up being a reload to avoid more potential breaking of the game.

If I knew that I wouldn't be in this mess, lol.

Important question do you have a mod called Skyrim Reputation?

Does not appear to be in this modpack, no.

Ok I asked because that alters how people would interact with you
