Hi, thanks, I never get to try it in any game advanced in history, it works with the followers I found. although I had to make a new game and now I won't be able to use it since I can't use followers. but thanks for the mod, it works
Hey so, Inigo doesn't have the usual dialogue from this mod is Inigo incompatible with this mod or am I doing something wrong? I tried managing him with AFT and he had the dialogue but he keeps breaking the game(huge fps drops, and sometimes doesn't move when he switches from AFT management to default).
There are instructions for using unique custom followers with this mod at the bottom of the description, but I wouldn't generally recommend it. Inigo has his own custom AI and importing him into mods intended for vanilla followers is liable to break him. This mod has a light enough footprint that it might still work, but you'd want to do some testing to confirm that (always make a back-up save before installing/updating a mod, in case you need to revert to it), but I definitely wouldn't try managing him with any follower overhauls (AFT or otherwise).
Even the Torch thing seems to work, but I barely kill the first one with strict stealth and although they have not discovered me, my follower shoots out to kill the others, throwing the whole strategy away
Conclusion: If you are going to kill stealthily, never carry followers
Alright, so recently I've been having a major problem with this mod where it doesn't work AT ALL. My followers constantly initiate combat as soon at the enemies even think that I'm there (The stealth eye isn't open all the way, not even half-way). Yes, the dialog for the mod with the follower is there and when I go back to check it it still says "Continue to Wait for the enemies to come to us" (or something along those lines), so according to that it is selected and working as normal. I usually only use custom followers so i have gone through and tried the "addfac xx002dbe 1" (WITHOUT THE QUOTS) on my companions and that hasn't worked either. The problem still occurs and the dialog acts as "normal". However when I try looking up the "help BetterStealthAICustomFollowerFaction" command to make sure I'm using the right number for the load position, the console shows nothing so I'm not sure what that's about. (Yes I am typing it right -with no spelling errors and no quots- I have gone back and checked many times). I'm not sure what occurred to make this happened but this mod has worked great for me in the past (with the same followers I am using now), but only recently has this become a problem. I am using EFF but I had been using AFT in the past until I switched. I'm not sure if the switch is what screwed it up or what, but I'm out of ideas at this point. I have uninstalled then reinstalled, checked my load order so nothing overrides it and nothing has fixed it. If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated!
It's very possible that switching from EFF to AFT was what caused it. EFF is very compatible with other mods that affect followers, and I believe it generally plays the nicest with mods like this one. Did you start a new game after switching? If not, you may need to do that in order to get it to work. Another thought would be if you changed load order recently, then that might have created a conflict where there hadn't been one before.
I am having the identical issue, im using RDO, tried changing the load order to before and after this one with no luck. did you ever get it figured out? i really want this one to work!
I dont think its working... I get the dialogue options, but even when asked to stay behind and not initiate combat my follower still rushes in as soon as i fire the first arrow... super frustrating because this is the kind of mod many of us have been looking for forever! I followed the instructions on the page, re-installed it, tried the console commands, everything i can think of to do... any advice?
Had something odd but interesting happen with this mod. Never under any circumstance ask the Miraak companion about stealth tactics. It'll immediately turn him hostile. Being a very squishy mage he owned me instantly. Update: It happened again with my Familiar Faces follower but fortunately I wasn't as squishy. Something about asking about stealth tactics makes my followers become hostile.
I have noticed that the only time the followers don't use the torch while sneaking is if you tell them to stay behind you and not attack before the enemy attack, if you tell them to attack as soon as they see a enemy they still sneak with the torch in hand...can this be fixed?
EDIT: It comes and goes this issue, today i had 2 followers with me and only the first follower sneaked without torch.After i dismissed the second follower the first follower started to sneak with torch again
And some times it works flawlessly?
and you under UFO or other followers manager mod?? this one is working ok for me under UFO.
No i don't use UFO, I'm using Multiple Followers Lite, its a verry simple mod that only allows you to have more then one follower...and the author of "Better Stealth AI for Followers" and i have come to the conclusion that "Multiple Followers Lite" can't cause this issue.

EDIT: For some reason the mod has stopped working, Lydia has started to sneak with torches again? EDIT2: Is there any console command to restart any script to make followers sneak without torches again? EDIT3: Had to uninstall the mod + clean the save and then install the mod again to get it to work again.
