Important notice: Please do not uninstall this mod while your follower is executing its commands (I'll follow you to.../Lead on). Otherwise, you may encounter issues, including your follower not headtracking or not following you. If you have already uninstalled it and are having these issues, reinstall the mod, interact with your follower, exit dialogue, save your game, then uninstall again.
Manual Installation
Notice: It is recommended to use a mod manager (like Vortex) for installation to avoid conflicts between mods.
Notice: For versions before 1.2.6, it is recommended to uninstall the older version of this mod before updating to the new version.
• Extract the ZIP file (I Follow You.zip).
• Copy the Data folder from the extracted folder into the Skyrim folder, typically located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim".
Manual Uninstallation
Important notice: Please do not uninstall this mod while your follower is executing its commands (I'll follow you to.../Lead on). Otherwise, you may encounter issues, including your follower not headtracking or not following you. If you have already uninstalled it and are having these issues, reinstall the mod, interact with your follower, exit dialogue, save your game, then uninstall again.
For version 1.2.6 and above:
• Delete ifollowyou.esp and ifollowyou.bsa from the Data folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data).
For versions before 1.2.6:
• Delete ifollowyou.esp from the Data folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\Data). To know which other files you copied, check the files inside the I Follow You folder that you extracted from the ZIP file. Then delete the files in the Skyrim\Data\Scripts folder that have the same name as the files in the I Follow You\Data\Scripts folder. Also delete the files in the Skyrim\Data\Scripts\Source folder that have the same name as the files in the I Follow You\Data\Scripts\Source folder. To make this process easier, you can sort the files by date.
