Ah okay. Wasn't sure if it was just me or not. I've been trying to find mods with Skeever companion/followers. So far not a lot of them have worked out. This one sounded cool because he had a voice.

I'm really sorry about that, E°. It just seems to happen to some people. I'm not sure what's causing it. I'll try and see if I can fix it at some point when I've got more time.

So I found him he said nothing, but did run to me. I thought he was suppose to say something beforehand? I waited a few minutes...literally 6 minutes and some odd seconds. Then I killed the mud crab. The entire time he said nothing. But when I walked away he followed me. I could not interact with him. I did this first with all my mods. Then second with just his. Both times, same thing. So I could just have a weird quirk. I've no idea.

@The LawnGnome all I did was Spawn in another Sam and Sam and Dave both started working normally after a while

@J9j9
Great! I'm glad you got it working. What exactly did you do to fix it? Other people who have similar problems might be able to do what you did.

Have a great day!

J9j9 Archmage Mar 1, 2013 @ 10:14am

sunday is long

I'm not sure if Sam is the source of the problem, Dustyruse.

Sam isn't technically a follower/companion. I didn't want to him to be affected by the follower limit so I just gave him an AI package to follow the player around and did other things to make him act like a companion. He doesn't use any of the stuff followers like Lydia use. (He's not part of the follower faction)

I even keep Sam around with me when I'm with Lydia. I really don't know what would be causing that issue, sorry.
TygerB0nes Oct 18, 2012 @ 5:34pm 
I dismiss Sam from my service,but when I try and talk to one of my other followers(like Lydia), they say I already have someone with me. Can this be fixed?
TheLawnGnome  [author] Aug 16, 2012 @ 6:59pm 
Okay, someone said this helps with Dave, so it might help with Sam, too. If you can't talk to Sam, try putting him earlier in your load order.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Jul 29, 2012 @ 8:18pm 
Yeah, the computer I use for my gaming and modding has got to be repaired. I can't use the construction kit until I get it fixed. It might be a week or two.
Nongwin Jul 25, 2012 @ 4:01pm 
That'd be awesome.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Jul 25, 2012 @ 2:31pm 
Hmm, would you like a talking miniature sabre cat instead?
TheLawnGnome  [author] Jul 25, 2012 @ 2:29pm 
Shhh, you'll hurt poor Sam's feelings.
Nongwin Jul 25, 2012 @ 8:47am 
I don't like skeevers. They are... not cute...
TheLawnGnome  [author] Jul 24, 2012 @ 9:08pm 
What creeps you out about him?
Nongwin Jul 24, 2012 @ 1:34pm 
I like Dave. I don't like Sam. He creeps me out.
A Meat Popsicle Jul 20, 2012 @ 9:40am 
Hey, is there any way you can have Sam stop his breathing sounds? It's really irritating to have him follow you and hear nothing but mouth breathing. Also! He's not good for a Vampire. He attacks anyone you feed from...
Moni Jul 7, 2012 @ 6:34pm

I'll see what I can do about it. :)
Wild Randy Mar 11, 2012 @ 2:37pm 
im pist whenever i play skyrim for more than 2 minutes it says skyrim has stopped working
YENDOR MOSREH Mar 10, 2012 @ 12:43am 
i like this rat, i wonder if his home could be in the rat way or the raged flagen in rifnen and he could sell stoma and herbs or a mission to deal with his rivals
TheLawnGnome  [author] Mar 3, 2012 @ 8:19am 
Great video, AstroWalrus! I hope you don't mind if I add the video to this page.

A decent start on this mod. Though he does seem really fast. If you want to see this mod in action we made a short video on it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1oTnlfVk5I&feature=plcp&context=C38fd183UDOEgsToPDskKKkqKtbyFXEdvatdAc7ggt
Fortuna Risk Feb 26, 2012 @ 3:36pm 
i dobt know if i shuold get sam or dave
PK1 Feb 25, 2012 @ 7:42am 
I could not get this little rat to talk to me. Id ask him to follow me but...he would just sit there and stare at me never saying or doing anything. :(

Boofala Feb 22, 2012 @ 12:40pm 
Does he replace your follower?
shailaigh Feb 20, 2012 @ 7:05pm 
I went to a Stormcloak camp for a quest and they didn't like Sam very much. They warned him a few times and then a battle broke out. It didn't pull me into combat, but it was kinda funny watching a skeever take on the camp.
leiurus Feb 19, 2012 @ 4:15am 
this mod is so cute, i love it! I've been waiting for a good skeever pet mod.

like other people have said, you should look into adding more dialogue if you can, because you did an awesome job with what's there now. if he said some phrases during fights(other than the mudcrab battle), that'd be really fun. (i do like how he lacks idle chat though, as i have never liked humanoid or canine followers for that reason. i do love the little skeever purr sounds though.)

i did run into a small problem where he stopped responding to commands after a while. i reloaded and it seemed to fix itself, but i'm not sure if its a glitch or not.

I can't find Sam or the map marker.....
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 17, 2012 @ 4:36pm 
Sam can be found at the map marker titled "Sam The Skeever", just west of the Whiterun stable map marker.
Microsoft powerpoint 2007 Feb 17, 2012 @ 2:37pm 
where do i find him
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 16, 2012 @ 7:51pm 
UPDATE: Friendly fire is really gone now. Sam will also not get too close to you.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 15, 2012 @ 12:38pm 
I sure will! Expect a working fix to his friendly fire issue today.
Mortifer Feb 15, 2012 @ 6:08am 
hey this is a great mod! you just need to fix the friendly fire problem and can you please change the follow distance for him because he follows way to closely and its pretty anoying.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 14, 2012 @ 3:34pm 
I might have spoken too soon. The fix that worked for Dave doesn't seem to be working so well with Sam. Tell me if y'all have any problems with it.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 14, 2012 @ 3:26pm 
UPDATE: Friendly fire is gone. Sam will never attack you.

O_O
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 14, 2012 @ 8:40am 
Good news everyone! I found a way to end all the friendly fire issues! I'll include it in today's update. :)
SpittyTheDude Feb 13, 2012 @ 1:18am 
I will give this a try, sounds funny!
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 12, 2012 @ 7:47pm 
I will be sure to add more then. Thanks!
Rubb3r Chick3n Feb 12, 2012 @ 7:01pm 
Love it!! Voice sounds pritty spot on. Needs a bit more dialog tho. Only has 2 or 3 lines.
TheLawnGnome  [author] Feb 12, 2012 @ 6:50pm 
Thank you! Be sure to make a comment on what you thought of it. :)
Rubb3r Chick3n Feb 12, 2012 @ 6:11pm
