Make sure you've installed the included meshes and texture files to the correct folders. If that doesn't help, try using the console command "resurrect". I recommend removing all items from Lydia's inventory before attempting this.
Props, verry good mod. i chekked several but none seem to work like this, i love how u compensated the ability to die with allot of strength and a selfheal spell. I wished however that we could make her essential, i tend to keep this follower with me troughout the game and dont wish for her to die. atm i applyd the console code "Setessential a2c8e 1" to keep her from dieing, question tho does this console command derp up anny of ur scripts ? hope not..
To fix this, select Lyida in console. Type "setnpcweight 25" press enter. Type "disable" press enter then type "enable" and press enter. This should scale her body down to fit her neck.
I know this is a bit of an annoyance, I'll fix it as soon as possible.
-Updated- Young/Tough Version 4.0 -CK Young and Tough Lydia have been updated with CK as well. Custom hair colors and face morphs to give them both a unique look. They have all the features present in version 2.0 of base Lydia.
::: I had to rebuild each version to get them to work with CK, hence the delay. ::: (They may look a bit different' from the previous versions, I'll be uploading some screenshots momentarily)
Thanks for your excellent update, I have a question regarding the torch, she is using some permanent never ending torch, is the torch considered as a factor while sneaking or hiding? If it is, can you make a version with no torch please?
The best Lydia ever.
@edit- after loading your latest version, no more torch in Lydia's inventory, is it one of your changes or you never gave her a torch to begin with and she just picked them up? There is still a torch, It was indoors so I thought you changed it.
I've checked "lydiastat" and found her carrying capacity to be (after "bat lydia") to be 500, so I guess your mod by itself adds 100 to her permanent stats? If it's the case I'll apply "bat lydiaoff", 400 seems quit enough.
Last general question: doesn't her stats (or any other follower) improve with leveling? I've leveled up from 15 to 25 and her stamina is still 77, health 193 and magica 100 (with "bat lydia" applied)? If so, then why the increase of Level Cap?
Torches never burn out while being held by followers, it is a normal torch somewhere in her inventory and I'm not sure if she'll consider putting it away while sneaking. You can take it out of her inventory like any other item; if you use the torch yourself, it will burn out within a few minutes.
Lydia's base carrying capacity is also increased by her "Extra Pockets" perk and current stamina. I will likely remove the carrying capacity change from the batch file in a future update.
The leveling problem has been present since the game's release, and surprisingly, it hasn't been sorted out by any of the patches yet. To scale her stats to your level, have Lydia leave your service as a follower. (Always Save Before You Do This) Open the Console and select Lydia. Type " Disable" then press enter. Type "Enable" then press enter. Use "Bat lydiastat" to check to see if her stats have scaled to yours. Have her become your follower again.
The reset will not work while she's your current follower. She will likely equip her default outfit after she's reset. Simply take/add something to her inventory that she'd normally equip to get her to reequip her best equipment.

-Updated- -CK Increased Level Cap to 300 Changed Default Outfit Now stars with Full Steel Armor set Properly added existing perks Now uses the Light Foot perk! (Doesn't set off pressure plates) Novice and Apprentice Restoration perks added. Recovery Perk added. Restoration Dual Cast perk added. Shouting Removed Added Fast Healing Spell Enhanced Magic Resistance Removed Restore Health Recipes Removed Enchanted Magic Necklace Bow Perks Removed
::: I still can't seem to change her base magicka, I guess its locked into her combat class. -_- I've included the old batch files from the previous versions, you'll have to use the batch file to make use of her stronger healing spell. It seems I'll be able to change her class easily however. Expect Mage/Assassin/Ranger versions in future updates. :::
Note: If you don't want to wait for Younger/Tougher versions. You could simply copy the "meshes" folder from one of those files into your Data file. Doing this will not change her height, weight, skills, inventory, or voice.

@edit: bat disable - bat enable causes her basic bow to be used again, fixed easily with bat fixbow.
Lydia is bumping me from behind very often, knocked me off my feet while aiming for a shot. Has this to do with your mod? some profile change of her?
There have been a few mods released that remedy this problem though.
that we could make her essential, i tend to keep this follower with me troughout the game
and dont wish for her to die. atm i applyd the console code "Setessential a2c8e 1" to keep
her from dieing, question tho does this console command derp up anny of ur scripts ?
hope not..
endorsed the file give it a 8 out of 10.
Also, this mod doesn't use any scripts. >_<
To fix this, select Lyida in console.
Type "setnpcweight 25" press enter.
