[SOLVED] Can i set a 2nd steward for my Hearthfire house?

[BlacKy #SlavaIsraelini]

I have a Hearthfire house in Falkreath and i have set a random mercenary to be my steward. Sadly, due to complexities with UFO mod, she was set to be my follower and not my steward, and now stuck that way (altho not leaving the house). I want to have a normal steward, as my current cant do anything regarding being a steward.

I cant seem to have a option when im asking other NPC's to become my new steward, including Lydia and other random NPC's. Is the game limited to make me pick 1 steward per house, and eliminating the option after that? I even tried killing my first steward before asking another one, but it didnt work.

What the heck is wrong with UFO these days? I have used it for a long time and never had any problems I have been reading from here.

UFO should not interfere with you setting a steward. I just bourght a follower that were capable of becoming my steward to the area, then asked him/her if he/she would like to become the steward of that house. After saying "yes" they leave from my service and start working as a stewards.

Has something been changed there, or are peoples somehow doing this wrong?

You can attempt to dismiss your steward and add the new one with console commands. Note, that I do not recommend doing this, before you have made sure that this indeed is an presistent bug.

Instructions can be found from below.

Well it could be my fault as im adding mods while playing the game so it causes some issues, especially follower-related mods like the one i recently added, Convenient Horses, which has already been removed since i never use horses anyway.

* My Solitude housecarl, Jordis, wont stop following me even tho i tell her to part ways.

* My former mercenary which came to be my steward, Rayya, cant follow me even tho i tell her to (basically shes useless in my house, as she cant follow nor be my housecarl).

* When asking my Witerun housecarl, Lydia, to follow me, she makes my current follower, Jordis to immediately part ways with me, as i can only have one follower at any given moment (thought the main purpose of UFO is to have up to 15, wasnt it?).

* When asking Jordis to follow me again, Lydia parts ways with me at the same time.

* Either way, the Falkreath steward wont send me another personal steward, nor i cant seem to tell friendly NPC's to be my steward, even after i killed my current steward, Rayya.

Sorry if this was a bit confusing, but i gave all the facts i know.

[BlacKy #SlavaIsraelini]

From your wiki link:

Once a steward has been chosen for a particular homestead, the choice is permanent; you cannot replace that steward with someone else later.

This summs it up pretty nicely.
I guesss the only solution besides console commands is to make a new house in one of the other 2 regions.

UFO should allow 15 followers. I doubt that this is a UFO bug, altough it may be contributing it. Similar problems have been seen in the original game as well.

This is a bit confusing to me. Hold stewards do not send you any stewards. They send you housecarls. Unless you especially made her your steward, Rayya was your housecarl and did not take place from your steward - you can have both at the same time.

Try the following

- Backup your saves.

- Install unofficial patches, if you alread have not done so. HF patch is important.
- Run LOOT
- Uninstall UFO: Follow the orders from the UFO download page:

UNINSTALL:
1) (Only If You Do Not Want To Play UFO Anymore) First dismiss all your followers.
2) Talk to Tina the Firefly on river island by Riverwood. Clicking her three times will restore default follower outfits. Save. Disable UFO. Load the save you made. Now you can go on playing without UFO from that save on.

- Exit game
- Run Save Script Cleaner. Instructions are at the page.
- Reinstall UFO, or try playing the game without it for a while. (I do not recommend installing any other follower overhaul to this game, except reinstalling UFO. You do not wish to mess up your scripts any further.)
- If reinstalled, run LOOT

Hint: If you have problems to clear your followers before talking to Tina, then use the following console command:
set playerfollowercount to 0

Thanks Ilja i will try it soon.
If i recall correctly, the Falkreath jarl told me that 'i can purchase a land near Falkreath and i can ask people to be my steward', so i guess i messed up saying its related to his own steward.

Already said i tried it. Didnt work.

I cant seem to find Tina the Firefly. I'm assuming the river island near riverwood is the lumber mill, but there is nobody called Tina in this location.

Well we're talking about UFO so yea shes an NPC mod, and still i cant seem to see her in game while the mod is installed. I will ask in the nexusmods page of this mod regarding her exact location.

[Ilja]

When you step out of the inn, walk over the bridge to the small item. Tina is a firefly that is located at your right side, near the large tree stump and mushrooms.

If they aren't being able to have more than 1 follower at a time. Could it be that the UFO mod isn't working. Still haven't seen any UFOs yet tho.

I do have the 'you know...' chat option which i can fully configure an NPC like to make it essential, learn speel books, etc.

Did everything and its still the same. But idc much. It doesnt bothers me too much to give a damn about it.

On a side note, while UFO was uninstalled, i did manage to part ways with Jordis peacefully, but unfortunately the steward, Rayya, was still stuck at the 'follow' mode even tho shes not leaving the house. Then i turned UFO back on and Jordis is now stuck to me and cannot part ways anymore.
