Thank you to everyone who has endorsed, downloaded or commented positively on this. I know it means a lot to many of you to have this option.
Update: Version 3 is up for the female version. It should correct all the reported bugs and expand the edits to more dialogue as well as adding lip sync. I will start working on version 3 for the male shortly.
Compatibility: See compatibility section on the description.
I have added a compatibility patch for Unique Player, it is only required for the female version.
I have added compatibility patches for Unique Player and Followers REDUX, once again it is only required for the female version. Make sure to download the patch for the specific options you have selected in Unique Player.
For players of the male version who are using AmazingFollowerTweaks you will want to use the version 1 of the patch. You can find it in the old files section. I will update that file when I put up the next patch for the male version.
For those who are wondering how to change male character husband (as he will not be visible in character creator if using version 2 of this mod), here are some easy to follow steps.
- Design and take notes on what you want him to look like while creating your character (it's easier to see, and will save you hassle later) - Wait until Codsworth asks you to tend to young Shaun. (Nate should be sitting on couch). - Hit tilde key (looks like this '~') then click on Nate to get his ID. - Type 'showlooksmenu' then his ID (e.g. showlooksmenu 0002d37a), which should bring up character creator. - Once you are happy with him, click ok. - Save game and quit to desktop. Then relaunch game (this will make it so you can interact with Nate again after the character creation process.
I hope this helps some people out. Also, thanks Sensia for making this mod. I can't imagine playing Fallout4 without it.
Thanks for the great guide. I also highly recommend Looks Menu for it's ability to save character presets. In either version of my mod I suggest saving both your and your spouses appearance as a preset so that if something gets weird you can open the looks menu and reapply the preset. In the male version you can create a look for your spouse using the main character and save it to apply later using this method. Once you are happy with the spouses look you can create a new look for your character. Since you have it saved as a preset you can use the steps above to apply it to your spouse as soon as you leave the mirror as you don't have to see your spouse to know what they look like. Hope this helps and happy gaming.
For some reason I just can't get this mod to work. I ran a clean install, downloaded the mod, female version, but in-game it's still Nate and Nora. Switching to Nora and leaving the character creator doesn't change Nate to a female character. What am I doing wrong? Do I need the script extender, or what?
It does not require the script extender. What other mods do you have loaded? Any other mod that changes the player record will prevent mine from working correctly unless mine loads after it.
Hey, I know you've got it listed in the perms that you plan on porting it over to console, but was wondering if you could set the perms to green as I'm in a discord server with a bunch of console porters who might be port this over if you've been too busy to do so.
new vegas did it well. this one does too. Bethesda should've done this to get rid of the hassle. Or they spent too much time on hyping it up or turning bugs into features.
I just don't think it makes sense for the lore, I mean the government was couped by a fascist dictatorship, I feel like they wouldn't be too friendly towards LGBT people. In the other games it makes total sense as they all take place 100% after the war, while this one takes place both before and after. I think it's a fun little mod but it shouldn't be labeled as immersive without totally rewriting the whole "America can be just as bad as the CCP" thing they've written for the past decade
I've found two more things to fix about female couple.
First one is PIP-Boy's description of stage one "Out of time" quest says "...the murder of my husband...". Partner seems to fit more.
Second one is "Hi Honey!" holodisc's subtitle shows "Nora" as speaker. And she refers to a player character as "You'll rejoin the civilian workforce, I'll shake the dust off my law degree". At least "Nora" part is immersion breaking.

I have done limited testing with the female version and it seems to work with only a couple glitches.
See the readme on his mod for details on how the process for reviving the spouse works.
Updated version should keep the original spouse appearance for the female version.
You can find it in the old files section. I will update that file when I put up the next patch for the male version.
