7-5-23 Update! Sorry for being so quiet on Khash here. I first started up working on her questline, and while I got everything implemented, it was so buggy I didn't know how to fix it. (Maybe it wasn't my best idea to make this questline my more detailed quest learning experience.) Because of all that, I have decided to take this chance with my new knowledge to entirely rebuild Khash. I'm still quite a ways from having this done, but I am 900 lines in, where she will have 1800 lines (maybe more,) in the new update. Sadly, none of this is voiced yet. To give a taste of what is to come though this remaster will have:
reformatting her backstory lines so they are done more naturally and not in phases.
better clothing system with crafting clothes and buying them from a new merchant.
New introduction quest that makes more sense for a kid trying to make her way in the world of Skyrim.
7 quest questline with many new npcs!
All new armors for her to wear.
Questions she asks the player and will remember the player's answers.
New backpack system
More immersive summon spell (no longer a summon spell, but a bird whistle.)
And new system where Khash can get mad at the player depending on their actions and leave for a few days.
These are just a few of the many changes/new features in the update that are currently implemented. And there are more I have planned, but don't want to get anyone's hopes up by saying them. I'm unsure when it will be out. More of a 'it's ready when it's ready,' but either way I can't wait for all of you to see the finished product!
I know load orders are a finnicky thing, but if anybody is having issues with Khash's textures, here's what's fixed it for me after browsing some of the comments here, plus some experimentation with my own LO.
1. Delete/do not use the RaceMenu patch. Apparently it's outdated. Instead, open up the RaceMenu ini (should be easily accessible from your mod manager), search the document for "bEnableTangentSpaceCorrection=1" and change the 1 to a 0 (zero). Save and close the file; you're done there. (Don't ask me what that does though; I have no idea.) 2. Make sure Khash and all her patches load after RaceMenu (and optionally, the RaceMenu Plugin). Depending on what version of LOOT you're on, you might have to manually add in the rule. If you don't know how: open up LOOT, hit the Filters tab at the bottom, search "Khash", go back to Plugins, right-click Khash The Argonian.esp, and on the right, select "load after". Choose "add new rule" at the bottom, and enter "RaceMenu.esp" and, if you have it, "RaceMenuPlugin.esp", save, and have LOOT re-sort your LO. 3. Regarding RBT - have Khash and her patches load before RBT.esp. This may or may not work for you, but it's what does for me, so putting it out there just in case. If you need to, add a rule to RBT to have it load after Khash's esp and patches. Same method as above, just swap out all the times you entered "RaceMenu" for "Khash".
I can't speak for Cloud's Tweaks, as I don't use it, AutoBody, or even CBBE, but I'd assume it'd be placed last among Khash's patches, or sandwiched between them and her main esp. I do, however, use high-poly Khash patch provided by CNPCO Argonians, and it's been auto-sorted to group with the rest of her patches; her textures still look fine.
So, to summarise, my LO regarding Khash looks like this:
RaceMenu (with the edited .ini file)
RaceMenuPlugin
Khash's main esp
Khash patches (minus the RaceMenu patch)
RBT
And her textures look normal in my game. Hope this'll help somebody else, too.
I really like Khash. After numerous playthroughs it's nice to have new and interesting personalities to travel through the region. I definitely enjoy the interactions with the other related follower mods.
The only drawback I have found with the character is that she tends to stay much closer to the player than other followers which frequently triggers her comments stated while moving away (one of which is pretty whiny and seems to trigger more often than the others). I'll admit that thematically, it makes sense for Khash to want to stick close to the player, but that doesn't really make it less annoying to hear so often.
For some reason I cannot get the "tell me about yourself" or "I want to ask you something" to appear at all, no matter what I do. xEdit says there are no conflicts in fact xEdit says nothing is editing or touching Khash's plugin whatsoever. I have tried using Cloud's tweaks, installed all of the patches, put her plugin lower in my load order and I cannot get her to let me ask her questions.
I desperately want her to interact with my kids! Is there any chance of a dialogue update? I love her so much but I feel bad that she and my kids ignore one another
Khash doesn't come with her own mount, but you can try Ride Sharing, which will have her mount up with you, or Horse Branding, which lets you assign a horse to any follower, modded or otherwise. Be aware that if you use Ride Sharing and True Directional Movement's mounted combat/archery functions, if you draw your weapon while mounted, Khash will get kicked off the horse and draw her own weapon; you'll have to re-mount to get her back up on the horse with you.
I downloaded Ride Sharing just for her but she never actually sits, she just stands on my horse like a circus performer lol She needs either a built-in version or some sort of pony I can buy her!
hey im getting an issue where khash's body textures are not loading in below the neck, leaving her body gray and of course untextured any cause and fix for this?
Ok so i fixed the khash grey texture issue but now i have another problem
Forgive me but I believe Khash is broken because every time I look in her direction the screen messes up and kinda cracks like graphics wise and idk what to do cause I have her patches.

The only drawback I have found with the character is that she tends to stay much closer to the player than other followers which frequently triggers her comments stated while moving away (one of which is pretty whiny and seems to trigger more often than the others).

Otherwise a great and enjoyable mod.
