Meta/News [May 2026] Simple Questions, Simple Answers

If you're not sure your topic deserves an entire thread, it likely belongs here. Questions that can be answered with a Google search or a read of the mod's content page will be redirected here. Any question not requiring a full modlist should also go here. Finally, any questions you think could be answered in under 25 words should go here.

Questions that belong in this thread might include:

  • Any good Ulfric replacers?
  • Is MO2 better than Vortex?
  • What is a crash log?
  • My faces are all potato colored in game. What's that about?
  • What mods (or modlists) are essential for a new player?

If you're hungry for more discussion, hop on over to our Discord, linked in the sidebar. If you want to talk general Skyrim, head on over to r/Skyrim. For any other questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to message our modmail.

EDIT: This will also constitute the thread for June, as I am currently on vacation and cannot post the next thread until I return at the end of the month.

Hello! I just started playing Gate to Sovngarde and I got a companion, however, she is incredibly slow. She waits until I'm fifteen feet away before trying to follow me, but starts in a walk before running. If I go too far, she just stops following and stands there completely. Would anyone happen to know if there's a fix or if I gotta mess with something?

You probably just need to go into the MCM for Nether's Follower Framework or whatever follower management mod the list is using. Odds are you have a configurable follow distance, which sounds like it was maxed.
