Original page description:
Prevents NPCs from making random greetings unless they are in front of the player.
The Winking Skeever is packed with people as you enter. After renting a
room - miraculously still available - you make your way to one of the
few empty chairs. As you sit down heads turn all around you, mouths open and out spills an endless flood:
What is it? - What do you need? - Yes? - Let's hear it! - You have questions? - Something you need, you miserable wretch? - ...
The mod works by modifying game code with SKSE. No scripts. No esp file. Safe to (un)install at any time.
Requirements
Skyrim Script Extender (SKSE)
Installation
Install with your mod manager or drop the contents of the archive into your Skyrim\Data folder.
By default the affected comments are triggered when the player gets closer than 150 units (game setting fAIMinGreetingDistance) to the NPC. This mod adds the requirement for the NPC to be no more than 20 degrees (mod ini setting MaxDeviationAngle) sideways from the direction the player character is facing.
Permissions
You are free to use the mod and it's source in any form as long as you give
full credit and link back to this page when you publish your
modification or reupload the mod. I would also appreciate if you let me know when you do so, but that is not a requirement.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 3,089 endorsements and over 336k downloads — clearly a must-have for immersion fans.
- Tiny mod that does one thing well: no more awkward greetings from behind, which breaks the flow in survival or roleplay runs.
- Still updated as of December 2025, so it's likely compatible with current game patches.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires F4SE, so you'll need to set that up first if you haven't already.
- Only affects greetings from behind — if you wanted a full overhaul of NPC dialogue, this isn't it.
- No detailed documentation or troubleshooting guide provided by the author, so you're on your own if something goes wrong.
For Fallout 4 players who value immersion and hate when NPCs shout 'Hey, you!' from behind during stealth or exploration. Perfect for roleplayers and survival mode enthusiasts. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes or dialogue overhauls — this is a subtle quality-of-life tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure F4SE is installed and you launch the game through f4se_loader.exe, not the default launcher, or the mod won't work.
- This mod is a simple ESP/ESL file — just drop it into your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2.
- If you're using a mod manager, enable the plugin in your load order after F4SE is set up.
