So I've been looking for a way to remove all NPCS from skyrim without effecting my access to the cities.
after searching the interwebs i found no mod that does this the way i want it.. so i made my own with what was available online.
A bat script that removes everyone i could so i can repopulate skyrims world with my own mods of choice.
I found a mass revive script by Toaster on the skyrim forums and edited it to remove everyone instead of resurrecting them.
first zip is to remove everyone (nopeople), It does work, i made this so it leaves all the merchants.
when i ran it, it did throw a couple errors but i still saw no one but gaurds and people marked essential after the fact. I assume the errors were because i had been playing that save for a few days and already cheated lol.
to run this open console and type
Bat nopeople
The second script is the same as the first except with most of the merchants included, so they get deleted as well
The 3rd script is to enable all that was disabled, just in case you already saves and want everyone back.
to run this type
bat peopleback
personally i made sure i was indoors and away from everyone when i ran this to be sure i didn't cause a crash. As i play a bit more if i find anyone i want out of my game I'll add them to a revised version of these scripts. The original resurrection script was from 2013 so i don't know if he did have everyone on the list from all DLC packs. the list was a bit over 700 people long so i think so.
It does not remove any guards as far as i'm aware. Thanks to Toaster from the skyrim forums for making his resurrect all list so i didn't have to hunt down all the ref ids.
