In this video, I will show you how to create a follower in the most detail possible. This video is fairly long so bear with me and be sure to follow each step carefully. Also, be warned that certain mods which interfere with followers in any way may affect your created follower and in some cases render them useless.
I also cover a little on creating combat styles and classes, as well as the grey face bug which everyone experiences during NPC creation using the kit.

I know this video is 8 years old, but... Can I just say, I have really bad ADHD, and every CK tutorial so far has been awful to follow along with and understand what's being said. I don't know how you do it, but I've managed to follow, hear and understand everything you've explained in this entire 41 min long, detailed tutorial. I'm pretty amazed actually. Thank you so much!!

@twotall1299 6 лет назад

Not sure why somebody would dislike this tutorial. This is the most in-depth one that I found that someone actually took the time to go through the entire process

Theyre jealous they didn't do it first....thats all I got.

@Dragonbleps 8 месяцев назад

I have a Skyrim character I created over 10 years ago, played multiple games with him, drawn and written things about him, but I think I'm finally ready to try and create him as a follower so he can be immortalized in others games, too. It's late as I type this and I'm only 15 minutes into the video, but it's already given me confidence to attempt it tomorrow. We'll see what happens! Thank you for the in-depth video!

@FormalKiwi Год назад

I plan on making a fully custom follower for my Skyrim adventures...And this really helps a lot since ive never opened creation kit before. Im probably gonna end up binging all your videos in one day to help out since they are really in depth, thank you!

@Sigmundzore 10 лет назад

Thanks alot! Really good tutorial with a quick and yet easy to follow phase. I will be watching all your other tutorials now!

@lillianwilson1146 10 лет назад

Thanks so much for sharing this. I referred to it several times while making my latest mod.

@Shadowhawk827 10 лет назад

Very helpful video. You cleared up a couple of things about the creation process that weren't explained very clearly elsewhere.

@nathangabrielmusician 8 лет назад

Thanks heaps Darkfox127! What a well spoken and detailed tutorial! Really helped me understand a lot more about the different areas of the kit.

@pdarwin25 7 месяцев назад

👍 I am very grateful that you have shared this video with the community. Your video helped me immensely! I was succeeding in creating a character in CK - but failed to get them into the world visibly. Your method for creating a character has everything I needed to succeed in making my very first follower. I am stoked!! You are awesome! Hope you are well. I will be watching more of our videos soon!

@Gothdir 6 лет назад

Great video! Everything worked out great! Now I need to find out how to combine this video with the custom NPC voice video.

@rickrosemeyer1313 7 лет назад

Thank you. Making my first NPC follower. This vid helped a lot since "How-to-make-a-follower" vid [very good, "Skyla Skyrim"] used pre-made CK follower. Generally, thanks for your work to help us all to be better users of the tools provided by generous modders like yourself. First saw your work with Elianora; your name here (in helpful U Tubes) was clincher. Peace. Rick

I know this is an old tutorial but thanks for making it! Been wanting to get into Skyrim modding and I thought making followers would be a good start.

@ThatsMrFrank 4 года назад

Old vid but thanks so much man, other guides missed subtle details that make it fail.

@RayMaxey 9 лет назад

Awesome job DF127, This video cleared up many of the questions I had regarding the Creation Kit. I have always wanted to add more Redgaurd NPC's to the game to use as followers, house stewards, or guards for my player homes. Can you suggest a tutorial that explains how to make changes to Player Home Mods for personal use in game? And this method does work with EFF so far, no problems.

@tonystanney3804 8 лет назад

Fantastic tutorial DarkFox. I have my follower up and working in under an hour! Might be worth pointing out that Ctrl + F4 doesn't work if you highlight your new follower in 'All' within the CK. But it works fine if you highlight her in 'Actor'. Another strange quirk on the Creation Kit I suppose. Nevertheless, an excellent tutorial!

@schmokerpatrick 10 лет назад

Hey thanks I went though several videos several times over trying to make a Follower including you advance one. But all I kept ending up with was an NPC who would help me in a local fight. The follower only voices was the only thing that stopped me from making my follower a follower. So thanks for that last bit of info.

@gamingwithdragons8542 8 лет назад

Awesome and informative video, thanks so much! I have a couple questions: Can you make it so the armor in the follower's inventory is leveled? Is there a way to give the follower perks that are compatible with perk mods such as Ordinator (without requiring a specific mod)?

@Darkfox127 10 лет назад

That information is mentioned in my basics tutorials as it just wastes time having to guide people through the basics every video like I used to do. If you are looking at watching a detailed video I expect you already have a grasp of the CK so there's no need to cover esp files.

@SS-cv6lq 4 года назад

I agree. Having a series of videos that follow an arc or a progression is more valuable, and a better use of time than recreating the wheel every time it's mentioned.

@Darkfox127 10 лет назад

Thanks for the support.

@freasgarringer8907 10 лет назад

No problem Dark. Thanks for your work! your tutorials helped me go from simply changing weapon stats and such, to building entire environments, and have the respective elements work properly.

@thebattlebrothers7344 8 лет назад

I have followed your steps, hopefully by the letter, and though the video has helped me immensely such as getting the relationships tab to work. I'm currently having this problem where I'm not getting the option to tell my follower to follow me, all she does is sit there and looks at me. I've obviously missed something but I've re watched and redone this follower several times and still the issue persists, some assistance would be helpful to a scrub such as myself. p.s. Your video is great, please don't misconstrued my words for ungrateful, it really did help me out.

@ytbeth567 8 лет назад

+The BattleBrothers If you haven't figured this out yet, then try pulling up the AllFollowers FormList under Misc. in CK. This will tell you all of the voice types available for followers. This is discussed in this video, so you might want to re-watch it. Also, if that is not the problem, try loading into your cell where the follower is through the console command (~ coc type your cell name)from the start of the game, rather than using your pre-existing savegame to test.

@CrystalWingDesigns 8 лет назад

+AvengingNarwhal The video shows how to locate what voices will work with followers. You pretty mucyh want to look up the follower form list and double click it, any voice shown inside will work, make not of one of them and apply that to the follower.

@ohigetjokes 7 лет назад

I'm getting the same problem. Oddly enough it WAS working, but I made some changes and suddenly it won't work anymore. Changed back, didn't fix it. Ever find a solution?

do you have other tutorials on creating combat style. i want to make a follower that can use spell mods and tk combat. really appreciate if you answer. love your vid!

@LoneChipmunk 9 лет назад

For some reason, when I got to the new follower menu to initially start, there were no options what so ever in any of the boxes to the right, such as race, weapon list, etc. What am I missing?

@BroTechGames 9 лет назад

For anyone having problems getting him to talk to you, try changing his voice to none or their race type, that default one makes it so my follower wont talk to me

@shenratensai 3 года назад

Really great vid! Thanks a bunch! Do you have a Discord channel / name?

@DiaborMagics 9 лет назад

Hey darkfox or others who read this! First of all to darkfox, thanks for yet another great video! And yes, have a questiln to anyone who can help: i want to create a follower with custom hair and maybe even custom clothes... how can i do that? Also, does darkfox have a video on retexturing? I cant find it and if i wanna make custom clothes, hair etc, i think it will be needed? Darkfox generally explains tings the best and least chaotic of many others, so id like to see a tut on that as well. Oh and how can i make the follower vampiric? Basically i want to create a follower based on the await the night poster by anne stokes :P EDIT: also, if i would create one big mod with like 20 followers, could i split it into small mods, so that no one would need to install all followers if they wouldnt want all of them?

@DiaborMagics 9 лет назад

thanks, that's quite some info :D I'll need to re-read it after school tho :p

@rayquantum6677 4 года назад

3:08 I know this tutorial is 7 years old but you have that backwards protected means only you can kill them

@patrickjinks 3 года назад

Is that right? I know it's seven years old, but I'm doing the exact same thing XD

@belowroller 2 года назад

@Sweet “What in the Goddamn?” Tea essential means they cannot die. Protected means only the player can kill them (if other NPCs or creatures take their HP all the way down, they will go down on their knees until they recover). Most vanilla followers are set to protected. A few are essential. Quest NPCs and major NPCs like Jarls, are set to essential by default, so you don't accidentally break a quest line. A handful will switch from Essential to protected after you complete their quest line.

@nagaplagius2854 7 лет назад

Hey just wondering when using this am I able to use mods when creating a new character? For example a specific character enhancement to make them look better

@BohrokKiller 10 лет назад

@dalkarancalimon 9 лет назад

eh darkfox, this brings up a good question, have you thought of doing a follower creation using immersive armors and weapons for creating them? im currently in the process of making a dunmer vampiric follower who is using a set of armor from the immersive armors and weapons, hope to hear from ya on this

@Huge887 5 лет назад

Very nice tutorial, very helpful even if it is dated. Maybe it makes too much time, but I have an issue (I'm beginning in modding): I want to make a personalized outfit with an armor from a mod, I can put the elements and save the outfit, but when I quit then restart the CK, the outfit file is still here but the pieces of armor are away. I added the right .ESP as a plug-in file and all. Is it because it is an ESP? This doesn't happen with ESM files from mods.

@XChaXGirlX 7 лет назад

Thanks! Some of the tutorials did not have the information that yours did and I managed to make a working follower for the first time. I'll be experimenting on the creation kit more when I have the time but how do we share our followers? Which files are needed to share our followers on NMM/Besthesda/sending files to friends?

@metalcollection1 8 лет назад

Hey Darkfox, do you have any tutorials (or know any) about setting generic dialogue for what followers say during combat, sneaking, discovering specific places etc. using custom voice?

@Kyro23 7 лет назад

Michael Aries I think he did a video about it now

@CrystalWingDesigns 8 лет назад

Any tutorial update on adding in custom dialog? Or even existing dialog so you can go through it before they become a follower?

@radagasttw 6 лет назад

Hi! great tutorial!! congratulations.! .ok,my question. the defaultSandboxCurrentLoc IA Pack, allow to NPC go to sleep in a bedroll automaticly in defualt time to sleep? (20:00 hours for 8 hours)?

@ElegantArtist21 10 лет назад

This is awesome! I have a question though how to you apply mods to your mod? Also how can you make it so that when people download you mod they don't have to download a ton of other mods for "hair and eyes" how can you make your mod just a one click download with all the details intact?

@Darkfox127 10 лет назад

That involves converting esp files to esm temporarily so that your mod can pull resources off other mods. The other way is to get the author's permission and add their textures, meshes or esp changes to your own mod. It's not easy and can be long winded, but I've never done it before myself.

@SIG442 8 лет назад

Basic follower that does not say or do much, could proof handy. I however would love to my follower having more skills etc. For example you speak to them and get them to do something specific, open their inventory. such things. Or the plain and simple guard or set home here modes. So definitely will check out the rest of the tutorials, perhaps I can find what I need. BTW, I did notice that this follower will stop following you if essential and you hit them too many times. You can get them to follow right away again, but it may cause for issues during battle. How to fix this?

@marmalade627 7 лет назад

He's not following me, just stood there.

@ZapGamez 9 лет назад

I've been really trying to find a tutorial that explains how to make a fully voiced follower (Obviously with custom Voice Acting) It would be awesome if you could possibly make tutorial explaining how to do so.

@zavodillaakakumacomoutrono9998 8 лет назад

The perks for the followers still work when I have mods that change them? For example, a have Perma and want my followers to have Lightfoot. Anyway, brilliant tutorial

@ricardomaccotta6367 9 лет назад

@michaellucas8426 6 лет назад

@DarkFox127 I love your videos but just watched this one trying to figure out how to fix my grey face problem for 37 min then you promised a link to another video in the description but there isn't one! LOL I think I am going to delete my custom NPCs and just try copying other vanilla characters hopefully export data will not be required. :S

@michaellucas8426 6 лет назад

Well that didn't work, used a duplicated default Khajiit and still got purple fur... :( I feel like in 2018 it should be very easy to research this problem yet all the fixes recommended seem only to fix it on my end which doesn't help me if I'm uploading to others. FML

@nobecasz3497 9 лет назад

Your video is awesome! Anyway, i tried to create my first follower based on this video, it was actually a flame atronach but i cannot interact with that. It's just say hello when i approach it, and do nothing but standing

@DaynJo 8 лет назад

Awesome video. Can you point me in the right direction please. I am trying to find the easiest way to change the face of an existing follower, Vilja, Lydia etc... Is there a mod, or tutorial that explains how I go about changing an existing. Not creating a new one. As I like fully voiced, just with a custom face I design. Thanks.. ☺

@instinctofficial8745 7 лет назад

when I talk to him there's no dialogue box

@magisterofasariel4854 9 лет назад

Darkfox127, thank you for this tutorial! I've watched a lot of others on RU-vid, and this is by far the best one. I'm just having one major problem. I noticed a lot of other people on here are reporting the same problem, but I haven't seen any helpful tips on how to fix it. So my problem is that when I go into the game, my new follower won't talk to me. When I click on him no dialogue options come up. I have pretty much duplicated each of your steps exactly, other than making my character's name and appearance different. But I even picked the same voice type you used, and everything else matches. Yet he won't talk to me. I don't understand what I did different and why it's not working. I've went back and double checked everything multiple times, and now I'm just stumped. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as at this point I just don't know what else to do.

@magisterofasariel4854 9 лет назад

You used the voice type MaleEvenTonedAccented, and this is the same one I used, but it wouldn't work for me. When I switched it to MaleNord, it did work. I got the dialogue to ask him to be a follower. Why would the first one work for you and not for me?

@schmokerpatrick 10 лет назад

If it was on the first floor I think that model is the silver blood attack so he may be only available during that one scene of the game. you might be able to tell if there are a couple of bodies to the right of the main entrance. hopes this helps.

@kennethjarvis4216 Год назад

Can you do a video of how I can properly move a vanilla npc for instance Jenassa to her own house or any npc that could immersively be somewhere else. Also in the video how to make them come outside and work during the day. You would see them as you walk by. It gives you a chance to ask them to come along for an adventure. Really any npc even if you made a new one and set them up in there house and function outside.

Ctrl F4 will only work if in "Actor menu" was not working in "All"

@michaelmartin4383 8 месяцев назад

Dark Fox, I want to create a "dynamic follower", by dynamic, I mean the follower dose much more than a regular follower. Built into the follower mod are different texture groups, some for muscle definition which is based on whether or not the follower is engaged in combat or if the follower hangs about the house or Inn they lose muscle and become more fat, rounded and soft, while if they are captured they become slim and weak. Therefore, the followers body is continually changing shape according to the activities the player puts them through. Also, strength, stamina and health also changes, to reflect the type of body weight. Such, a follower will have to use optimized textures and will probably be script heavy. For me game-play if far more important than high-resolution graphics. How, I imagine this working is using the weigh system, 0% weigh is slim and muscular (no breasts), 50% weigh is normal (normal breasts), while a 100% is fat and soft (large breasts).

I'm creating a custom follower/replacement of Alesan, using mainly Racemenu and RS Children. I have run into an issue where the Racemenu ears wont show up on the character. Everything else with my replacement is working perfectly. I just cant figure out how to get the ears to show up. If anyone can help, please let me know what to do?

@SatvaE 10 лет назад

btw my question I sent you from your website is under my real name ;-) It's about my follower not dismissing and automatically being a follower without me asking him.

@GailsonPvPwtf 8 лет назад

Can you or did you do a video on adding mod assets to your follower? like apachii hair and Eyes of beauty and skin textures or mod equipment

@joshdionne2777 8 лет назад

It's really not that hard to do. First go to the hair menu in the Ck and make a new hair thingy and depending on what you made first you'll either have to find the base hair or the .tri file. You'll have to make two because if you don't the hair will either not work entirely or it'll be transparent, the latter because you didn't export the tri file then once you have both made you find the hair with the base nif in it and link it up with the tri file, that should be it (sorry if it's vague I can't exactly remember how to so don't quote me on this)

@Sigmundzore 10 лет назад

Is there a way to make custom followers semi-essential like the vanilla followers? Making enemies stop attacking them when they enter bleedout and restoring their health when out of combat?

@KavosDreams 3 года назад

So about the part where you said the sleep outfit doesn't do anything... I found out the hard way that if I didn't select a sleep outfit for my mannequins, they went naked instead of wearing the thieves guild armor I gave them all for their "default" outfit. So apparently it does something in the Skyrim Creation Kit.

@Thicketford 11 лет назад

Great tutorial. I followed it carefully, but I have a problem. Using the default combat style, my follower keeps raising and lowering their crossbow in combat and they don't actually attack. They have plenty of ammo.

@ncshuriken 9 лет назад

I followed everything in the tutorial to the T (except I imported an NPC file of my old player for the "char gen parts") yet when I load up the game, I can't see my NPC anywhere... I looked all around Riverrun for a good 5 minutes & she's definitely not in the game. What could be causing this? I have version 1.9.32.

@Korgass 6 лет назад

I did everything as shown in the video and it worked for my first Follower. Used Apachii hair on her + custom race (half dragon). But when I made 2 more custom Follower my Game crashes everytime they are (or rather should be) in my sight. I dunno what to do. My first Followers ID is pretty normal (llike other NPCs starts with numbers, not 0) while the other 2 have a weird ID like 0f22.... I dont know what to do.
