Dynamic Non-Player Characters (SKSE)

Dynamic NPCs

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

When multiple mods change the same NPC, Skyrim only keeps the last mod's version and throws away everyone else's changes. This plugin fixes that. It finds everything that was lost and resolves conflicts properly: inventory items, spells, perks, AI packages, factions, outfits, stats, skills, AI personality, traits, keywords, and Papyrus scripts.

This mod not try to resolve FaceGen (using it as a generic term) conflicts, because that would absolutely create issues. Instead, in the .ini, you can list .esp files you want to be the winner no matter your plugin load order. This allows, for example, a Serana specific mod to dictate how Serana looks no matter your load order.

This is an alpha release that has not been tested through an entire playthrough, it may have bugs. It may cause NPCs to behave strangely, or not drop the proper items. Everything looks fine on my end. It is safe to install and remove at any time, but make a backup save before installing, just in case.

    What This Mod Does

    (I am trying to keep this simple. Questions are welcome.)

    When multiple mods change the same NPC, Skyrim only keeps the last mod's version, for the most part. Every other mod's changes are silently deleted. This plugin checks every mod that edited each NPC, figures out what was added or removed, and puts it all back together at startup. Think of it like an automatic Bashed Patch for NPCs, but better for NPCs.

    [*]Resolves NPC conflicts across multiple categories/records. The typical scenario is you install a bunch of mods that change NPCs in different ways. One mod gives Lydia new spells, another gives her better gear, a third puts her in a new faction, and a fourth changes her combat style. Skyrim only keeps whichever mod loaded last and silently throws away everything else. Then you're stuck h
