📋 About This Mod
The Machine and Her by NikaCola is a great story. This is our attempt to revive it and make it a staple in everyone's load order.
We have cleaned up the cell headers, removed extra cells, rebuilt new navmesh, generated new previs and precombines, and tried to fix a lot of the bugs.
You still need the original mod for the textures archive. We are providing a rebundled main archive from SpaceFiddle, which should fix some audio issues.
Vanilla previs is built into the mod, and there is a separate PRP . 74 previs patch under optional files.
Due to the changes in the plugin, a new game is STRONGLY recommended.
Compatibility
You need the original mod, The Machine And Her, by NikaCola, for this to work.
If using XDI, please get this XDI patch by EnvyDeveloper. The Wolfmark patch for XDI might also help, but has not been tested. XDI without either of these will cause quest issues.
Kit can't wear most modded clothes or outfits, as her race is based on human child. There is this mod by McMacHack, which might work, but once she has a different outfit equipped, she'll never return to her default outfit. And do not try to put any CBBE outfits on her. You have been warned. It's just better to leave her in her default outfit.
Also, The Machine and Her Atlantic Office Patch is no longer needed. That cell header is no longer part of the plugin.
A huge Thank You to NikaCola for creating the original mod, and for granting permission to upload a replacer.
Thanks to MisterNumbers3k for his work on rebuilding the mod's navmesh and other CK work, and for allowing me to bounce ideas off him.
Thank you to Crayonkit for their support of the mod, and providing detailed documentation of the bug reports (and fixes).
And thank you to SpaceFiddle for allowing us to use their repackaged main archive.
