Thanks! THANKS! AND MORE THANKS TO YOU! I started play Skyrim this week and when searching about the followers stats, I've founded the "Ask Follower Skill" mods to do that, but after tried a lot to make it work, I just discovered it's has no update since 2012 and just dont work anymore, I was so dissapointed, but then I've found ur mod! So again... THANKS! <3
References to follower skills on the UESP site claim that most skill boosting equipment doesn't work as intended for followers. Yet your very nice mod is able to calculate what a follower should have in skill accounting for bonuses. Do you know if things were patched and followers actually reflect bonuses from their skill based gear?
Great mod! I tend to not use followers, but I still want to view their stats out of curiosity. Using this mod means I don't have to use any of the big follower mods. Thanks for your work!
as dalevj pointed out below, the 1.2 release this morning was missing the script file >< i have now re-uploaded it - my apologies to the users affected.
Hi Zhool, it's me again. Upgraded to 1.2 and now, while I get the dialogue option to "Tell me.....", I get nothing when I click on it! Yikes! I use MO and manually installed and replaced the previous version, that's all and now the mod is non functioning. Any ideas?
ah well, you see, the problem there is that i'm an idiot - I forgot to include the scripts folder >< thanks for pointing that out. i've re-uploaded it, and it should work fine now (just make sure you overwrite the old script file).
Works great on my vanilla followers (those in original game) but doesn't appear to work on a customized follower, specifically Sofia. Works on Zuleika, another customized follower however without problems. Must be due to the unique design/development of Sofia. Quick and EZ to use, very helpful mod. Thanks!
thanks for the feedback. for this mod to work, target NPC must be in potentialhirelingfaction OR potentialfollowerfaction AND have relationshiprank > 0. try (in console) selecting sofia and typing getrelationshiprank player. if it is 0 type setrelationshiprank player 1 and see if that helps. theres a console command to check if an npc is in a faction (getinfaction) but i can't get that to work fsr.
Thanks for getting back to me. I have updated to newest version then checked relationshiprank for Sofia. She comes back as >>3 (Ally). I set her for 1 to double check, but that does not work. She doesn't play well with AFT either so there is no easy way to check her stats other than going to her MCM menu which is only a couple of extra steps so I'll "Play On". Thanks for looking into it.
yes, the new version wouldnt affect that i'm afraid; it must be that she is not in either of those factions. i've figured out how to add her to the potential follower faction: open the console and select sofia (make sure its her - i just spent 5 minutes trying to add an armchair to a faction) and type:
addtofaction 0005c84d 0
this will add her to the potential follower faction at rank 0. you can check if you have added her to the faction with getinfaction 0005c84d which should return 1 if she is. the faction change should persist through saves so you will only have to do it once, and i don't imagine it would affect anything gamewise. i tested this on a guard by also using 'setrelationshiprank player 1', so it should work for your sofia too.
Thank You Zhool! Worked like a charm. You must be one of those folks (I am anyway) who gets a puzzle/problem and has to solve it. I've done a little programming and if I get some error showing up or crash, I can't let it go until I've figured it out. Thanks for taking the time to puzzle this out. Hopefully, others who have Sofia (and there are LOTS), and decide to give your mod a try see this thread so they can get her to work too.
Super follow up. Thanks again for a smooth worthwhile mod and know, your latest update makes it even better.
