Bugs or Problems

You can only have one Follower at a time: if you want a different one (in my other mods), you need to dismiss the first one before you recruit them.

If telling the follower to return at home (With message: “Your dog heads home”) doesn't dismiss him, or if you have lost the active Follower, you can try this:

Type “²” key to get into console, and type:

set playeranimalcount to 0

With Amazing Follower Tweaks or other mod with followers, if problem to dismiss the followers, you can uncheck this mod (AFT or other) in the Data Files when you launch the game

If problem with the Dialog Box of the followers/ companions (Wait - Follow - Trade - Favor - Dismiss) you can also enter / exit a house or make a fast travel
