Buggy NPC mod!

    [​IMG] Now I had installed a few new NPC mods and I tried them, I got Keto and immediately liked her, and decided to take her. (this made a total of three bards in my party, my PC as a Chorister, an Arcane Fist MP created pal, and I SKed Keto into a Skald.) Well we are a bunch of merry-go-happy adventurers. :roll:

    Anyway, I met Wizard Slayer Kitanya in Umar Hills. The voice quality was low, especially when compared to Keto, but I had heard good things and decided to take her. Here I guess there are a few bugs.

    1)First, isn't she an elf? Her avatar and dialogus scream she is elven but character sheet says she is HUMAN! Further, since she has 16 STR and 17 DEX she CAN be dualled into a thief? Why? This is not supposed to happen, right?

    2)Second, she can NOT use her own equipments. Her personal sword, armor and shield, usable ONLY by Kitanya, they are all RED (forbidden) to her. She comes already equipped by them, but once I take them out she can never re-equip them again. Why?

    3)Third, Kitanya mod also had a component to buff Wizard Slaayers, giving them new Anti-magical powers AND Detect Illusions ability. Kitanya does not have any of them. She has bonus save vs spells and penalty to other saves as stated in Kit description, but other abilities are non-existent. Why?

    And as so I had to leave her, as she could not equip her own items and had no new WS abilities at all. I tried resting and even leveled her up via cheats, she did not gain any WS abilities.

    Is this a known bug, if so is there a cure, OR is it a fatal mod-conflict with my over-crowded mod list? Do you have any idea?

    You've got a corrupted install, if Kitanya's gear isn't useable by her. Sounds like you may have had an editor open when you installed the mod.

    I am %100 sure I did not have an editor or anything else active in my computer when instaling the mod. I don't take installing new mods lightly, just so you know. ;) Perhaps the download was corrupt? A pity. Can't I do anything to fix via SK? Huh?

    If you shuffled the install order at any point that could have done it, too. I had a game ending bug that I fixed by restoring a clean install and reinstalling all the mods except the ones that I theorised had caused the bug. After doing so, Kelsey was no longer human, had an invalid kit assignment, and all of his strings were munged up. Kelsey had a built in string fixer, so the strings were fixed easilly enough, but I had to fix his cre file manually. My personal reccomendation is that you either control-y Kitanya and summon her again with the console or fix her cre settings manually (make her elven). Once she has the right race and kit, she'll be able to use her gear again and won't be able to dual class.

    OK this can fix her gear problem, what about abilities? She does not have all those new and spiffy WS abilities which INDEED limits her usefullness. But her plot and dialgues sound cool, I really want to try her out provided she can be useful and her trueself.

    Ah she has 19 CHA. Interesting, I guess this is not a bug, right? :shake: Even my Chorister has a humble 15 CHA. :p

    If she isn't getting her wizardslayer abilities, you should control-y her and summon her again with the console. She'll have everything, then.

    Hmm. Maybe this can work, indeed. I will just try it, thank you!

    Sounds to me like you have the wrong version of the mod. The item usage thing was fixed a while back.
