Whetstone

I had this issue when updating to relinker v44 on my load. I rolled back to v40.

You can recruit those followers into EFF from the EFF MCM.

I haven't experienced this particular issue but sometimes the EFF "Train" menu option will reset a bugged out follower.

I am thinking it was a bit script heavy.

Oh, I don't know. It is pretty easy to get up there. This guide will get you close, My current load (below) is loosely based on this guide and is pushing around 70K strings. I don't feel that it is too ridiculous.

I actually just experienced the same issue when updating to relinker v44 on my load. I rolled back to v40 and didn't have the issue.

I don't think anything bad will happen other than snow falling through the roof or maybe some weird transitions when moving in/out of shelter. I've had the everyone goes hostile bug a few times. I don't think its caused by any specific mod. You probably kicked a chicken or something. This usually fixes it: Commit a petty crime (I usually pickpocket a torch off a guard) and then get caught any pay off the bounty. This seems to reset whatever flag causes this.

I believe it is just the new snow types added by vivid weathers that are not compatible with real shelter.

The 16.11 Patches all work with V17

err broke the album link. https://imgur.com/a/Q3bnG

I thought I would share an album from my current build based on excellent Yash'd up guide. I'm not much of a screen archer. Most of my textures are 1-2K. Be gentle. https://imgur.com/a/hHDKN

I am running CCOR before Yash2 and then just forwarding the conflicting recipes and a few outfit records to a patch. It works for me but may not be what everyone has in mind. If anyone wants the patch let me know.

Make sure you pulled those extras ESPs out of main 3DNPC mod in MO into their own mod, otherwise it will try merge all the assets from 3DNPC which will take forever.

Kudos to you guys. Just built this out with all the bells and whistles and it looks great. I am liking the dynamics of Yash.

Have you looked at Book of UUNP? It's similar but fully integrated into the world.

Arthmoor says that on all of his mods. If you want to get support from him you probably shouldn't extract. There are arguments on both sides. Personally I extract everything. I like to dive into the guts of the mod and micro-manage my load to my liking. Extracting makes that much easier.

New Arthmoor mod looks interesting. https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/79508/?

Just drag them into your profile folder.

If its effecting your character than I don't think using the CK is going to help. That method is for fixing individual mods with facegen issues. I think your issue is just resources getting overwritten.

Are you sure this is only your character? Check some NPCs that are not altered by the NPC retexture mods and see if they have the issue. If so its probably something overwriting your head mesh. If its truly only your character I am not sure. Maybe try changing the complexion in Racemenu.

Just a guess. You only have 2GB VRAM so I am guessing your stutter is VRAM paging out to system RAM rather than script lag. SFO would be one of the big hitters on VRAM.

I am big fan of UUNP. However there really isn't a great set of vanilla armor conversions. The only decent one that I know about is currently unavailable.

The original mods that had the ESPs moved out of them stay checked in the MO left pane. The ESPs folder in unchecked after you do the merge.
