I’ve been trying to get a custom follower mod to work in my game, but no matter what I do, the character just stands there silently and won’t interact. Has anyone else run into this issue with a custom companion mod where they’re completely unresponsive? I followed the installation guide to the letter, so I’m not sure what I’m missing.
That sounds frustrating the custom follower mod you installed leaves the NPC standing there silent and not responding to anything at all
Could the issue be that the game engine is waiting for a trigger that never fires in your save
Maybe you read the install notes wrong or the mod uses a different game version and ends up clashing with your patches
I am skeptical that simply reinstalling will fix it if there is a conflict with another mod or a missing asset
If we think of the follower as a social object the silence could be a design choice that nudges you to engage differently
The idea of a quiet companion can be a cool story beat but it might feel odd in practice and push you to adjust expectations
