BUG FIXES/CHANGES: -Player would get stuck in workbench if modifying Heather's armor and the PC was male. Added male models to 'armoraddon record'.
------------------- VERSION 1.02 ------------------- July 21 2017
BUG FIXES/CHANGES: - If player refused sneak bonus the topic would play repeatedly. Fixed it so topic behaves like it should.
- Added toggles in Heather's bunker terminal so that player can turn on/off the Power of Alternative Medicine perk or Heather's sneak invisibility perk.
- Fixed missing Hancock dialogue when talking to Heather.
- Alien convo could play more than once. Fixed that.
- When you told Heather to "stay" in the command menu she would wander around so far she could wander into combat. I've cut that radius to about a quarter of the size it was originally.
That's it for this update!
------------------- VERSION 1.01 ------------------- June 18 2017
Nothing shocking this time, just an update for llama's version v1.01
------------------- VERSION 1.0 ------------------- May 29 2017
The way the Shorter Sneak Follow Distance worked has been deleted, so that option has disappeared from the FOMOD installer.
A few lines from llama herself :
My official position about updating to v1.0 is that you should not install it into a gamesave that had an earlier version of Heather in it. The changes I've made are substantial and fundamental. I could not support such an install if there were bugs, etc. If you insist on updating into an existing save, dismiss/rehire Heather. Remember, though, I will be unable to support bug reports in these gamesaves. Most things that go wrong will be with her AI and that kind of thing isn't fixable in the console.
llama
Which also means if you experience any bugs with the patches because of not following the aforementioned instruction you will also lose support from me
------------------- VERSION 0.92 ------------------- May 19 2017
Initial release ( thanks for uploading llama )
COMPATIBILITY: If you use a mod like Quick Trade It might conflict with the patch. If you see the same lines over and over like two talk and two trade options when you talk to Heather, remove said mod.
This is a Fix or patch that I have uploaded if you use (Heather Casdin - A unique companion experience SPANISH and Extended Dialogue Interface XDI) together and solve a problem in the dialogue text, visit for more details. Spanish only https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/29693?tab=files thanks to @mindkiller316 for the guide.
Kinda late to the party but I'm here - meaning the "Heather" experience. Love the name btw.
I am assuming that this patch is still needed for the most recent "Heather" mod..?
Ok, I've installed the main Heather mod and used the no CBBE patch. Then I've downloaded this patch here due to having Valdacil's Item Sorting and, related to that mod, Valdacil's Item Sorting. So I tick the option to install such support and then note 2 esp's have been installed. One related to the VIS patch seems fine. The other related to AE (Armorsmith extended..?) patch.
For now, as they are installed, I enabled the VIS one but left unticked the AE. BUT do I need both to be enabled as I do not have ArmorSmith Extended installed...?
Many thanks.
BTW When I try your link to your Discord channel I get the typical message about it being an invalid invite.
The automated installer detected Armorsmith Extended.esp being installed and active. That's the only way the pluggin from AE can be installed.
If you somehow managed to install the version that installs the AE version and you actually don't have that mod installed and active, you will get an error because you have a master file missing, being AE
And as far as I know I don't have a link to discord (I don't have a server/channel there). Maybe you mean Llama ?
Something is wrong on your side, I'm pretty sure of it.
I just downloaded the latest version of the Patch, without having AE installed. The FOMod goes straight to this menu :
"Which Sorting mod do you use (select only one ! )"
"I have (VIS-G) installed ."
"I have Valdacil's Item Sorting (VIS) installed ."
I don't have Heather installed, not do I have VIS Installed , so I get the error :
Some of the enabled plugins depend on others that are not enabled: llamaCompanionHeatherV2-VIS Patch.esp depends on ArmorKeywords.esm + llamaCompanionHeatherv2.esp
there is no Armorsmith Extended.esp within that list as I do not use the mod.
I'm not sure what triggers the installation of the patched esp, perhaps it is a problem at my end. But I do see it in the list and just disable it.
It does to be because I have ArmorKeyowrds.esm installed, from Armor and Weapon Keywords Community Resource (AWKCR) BUT I do not have Armorsmith Extended installed.
I get the impression that the AE patch from these patches is triggered to install by having AE or AWKCR installed. And will only work correctly if AE is actually installed.

Didn't i just tell you that it DOES work ? That there is something wrong on your side ?

You're not only telling the mod doesn't work correctly, but also that I'm wrong in assuming so and that thousands of people have issue but didn't report it. Sorry, but the mod works as intended and proven
Yes, you have missed something, Llama telling you all that a patch for XDI/FDI is now integrated in the main mod. From the main mod's description page :
2. Compatibility FDI/XDI: Heather no longer needs a patch to work with XDI or Full Dialogue Interface
it is that's the patch that I'm using. I re read the patch for the silent mod and it says to not use the fomod on MO2 so I'll try using just the patches themselves an see if it works, if not would you have any other advice? I apologize I'm kind of new to pc modding.
I re read the directions on the mods page an downloaded the patches separately which fixed a lot of the issues I was having with the silent mod including the character lines for the heather mod, however it's not a complete patch there is still some voiced lines that come through, I've tried contacting the author of the silent mod but it looks like he is done modding an won't be updating his mod anymore unfortunately. I would love to make a patch myself but like I said I'm new to all of this on pc, I looked up some videos on bae2 archiving and it confused the hell out of me. I apologize for taking up your time. I just really like the heather mod, but I HATE the voiced protagonist in FO4.
How do I get Heather version 10 back on Xbox? Or revert to previous updates. I don’t own any dlc and I accidentally updated her now I can’t play with her.
Congratulations, you are the first in 700+ people to experience this. Not this mod doing that to your game, or my inbox would have been full with people complaining
Heather is, by far, the greatest companion (and companion mod) one could ask for in FO4. About those patches, I have one question: is a patch also needed for FIS (FallUI Item Sorter) ? And if so, may I ask if you are planning on making one?
I don't suppose there would be a patch planned for Start Me Up Redux? if you do an alt-start where you are not Nora/Nate and have nothing to do with Shawn, Heather convo options still mention him, as well as Heather's comments when in vicinity of certain locations, etc. Thanks!
Would it be within the scope of another mod (that you know of, or main Heather mod perhaps)? Or are you saying that alternative start compatibility is not planned at all, period? Alt-start mods are quite popular, I am sure it would be highly desirable.
I'm planning to make something that works with SMUR sometime later this year. That'll happen on the main Heather page.
Also, I try to build compatibility into the mod itself, so like the FallUI issue with food would be something to mention/talk to me about on Heather's main page as well.

I do not have the mod or esp of AE installed and only selected VIS as the mod that is installed and needed the patch....
I opted for.....
You have Valdacil's Item Sorting installed but not Armorsmith Extended .
Select this option if you want the VIS patch .
Yes, you're done :)
and both VIS and then AE esp's are installed.
I unticked the AE option, as I do not have it, as flagged above.
I just downloaded the latest version of the Patch, without having AE installed.
The FOMod goes straight to this menu :
"Which Sorting mod do you use (select only one ! )"
I don't have Heather installed, not do I have VIS Installed , so I get the error :
Not a single mention about AE
This is my list, I listed it alphabetically so you can easily see it....
List of mods loading esp's etc
there is no Armorsmith Extended.esp within that list as I do not use the mod.
I'm not sure what triggers the installation of the patched esp, perhaps it is a problem at my end.

From the main mod's description page :
P.S im a big dumb i had the patch above the heather mod in my load order.
P.p.s never mind that did not work. any help? i have silent then heather then the patch.
They ask you to check this Silent Protagonist Patch Compilation mod.
Heather is in there somewhere I believe
I can not give you other advice and there will be no patch made by me.
Then again if someone else wants to make a patch they can go right ahead.
But like I said : I think the patch should work ...
2.5 does not need additional patching
I can't help you with this, because this page is just for the patches
- Compatible with the latest version of Heather (v2.3) . Dumped Bhaals Sorting mod.
- All .esp are flagged light.
- Updated the FOMod
If there are any issues, please let me know here so I can keep track of them
( please post thank yous and other comments further down as usual )
Then why do want to download The Assorted Patches ?
