📋 About This Mod
Vanilla! Points Auri's follower logic to vanilla scripts to maintain historical compatibility with frameworks like NFF (along with some script cleanup). This covers the following dialogue:
-
[]Follow me. I need your help.
[
]Wait here.[]Follow me.
[]It's time for us to part ways.
The other basic options were left untouched.
Save games! Resolves issue with no follower dialogue for Auri if you update to 2. 0 with an existing save and have already talked to her.
I have tested loading existing saves as well as basic function with NFF.
If you have this mod and have any issues related to following you or not, don't go bug Waribiki. Bug me.
Do NOT report problems with this mod to the author of Auri!
Auri 2.0 - Vanilla Following and Save Game Bridge Fixes is a compatibility patch for the Auri follower mod, redirecting her follower logic to vanilla scripts for better integration with frameworks like NFF and fixing a save game issue that prevented recruitment after updating to 2.0. It has 87 endorsements and was last updated in October 2025.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Fixes a real headache for anyone updating Auri mid-playthrough (87 endorsements from players who've been there)
- Keeps Auri working with popular follower frameworks like NFF, so you don't have to choose between them
- Lightweight patch that does one job and does it well
⚠️ Cons
- Only useful if you're already using Auri 2.0 and hit the save game bug or use NFF – otherwise it's a no-op
- Small mod with a niche audience, so don't expect frequent updates or broad community support
- Potential compatibility risk with other mods that alter Auri's follower scripts or rely on custom follower logic
For Skyrim players who use Auri 2.0 and either run follower frameworks like NFF or have an existing save where Auri won't recruit after updating. Skip this if you're starting fresh or don't use Auri – it's a targeted fix, not a feature pack.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install this after Auri 2.0 and any follower framework like NFF, then load your save and test recruiting Auri to confirm the fix works.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it overwrite Auri's scripts – that's the point of the patch.
- For Skyrim Special Edition, make sure your load order has this patch after Auri and NFF to ensure the script changes take effect.
