Don't ask me about presets or custom assets, the answer is NO.
Every comment with unwanted nitpick will be hidden from now on, I'm just DAMN tired of seeing it and I 100% don't care about your personal preferences, seriously. If you prefer something else, cool, save it for yourself, I will not change what I like because of you or what you want. The mod comes as it is.๏ปฟ๏ปฟ
HUGE THANKS to everyone who downloaded, endorsed and put "Double Melana" in the HOT MODS ๐ฅ
I am very happy you like it, tried my best to keep her essence and pay respect to your work! Thank you so much for such amazing follower! She must be more known by the community, is a great addition to any game! ๐
Hi, LOOT gave me this error message: Error. This plugin contains records that have FormIDs outside the valid range for an ESL plugin. Using this plugin will cause irreversible damage to your game saves.
Would the other download in the files section possibly fix it?
[UPDATE] I resaved the esp and now is working without issues. Please, those who had this problem before download the file again and reinstall (safe to update midgame) Thanks wickedface09 for testing! ๐
Dado que รฉs Brasileiro e eu Portuguรชs, permite-me que escreva na lingua de Camรตes. Grande trabalho...ou trabalhos...pois todos os mods que criaste, estou a usar e sรฃo de louvar. Ansioso por mais mods, principalmente replacers ou followers de um dos meus modders favoritos. Obrigado!
Afinal รฉs uma Senhora, peรงo desculpa o engano no pronome. Eu nรฃo gostei, eu adorei e cada notificaรงรฃo que tenho, fico sempre na esperanรงa que seja um novo mod da tua autoria, pois sigo-te aqui na Nexus. Nรฃo vou fazer pedidos, pois por mim, mudava todos os NPC's do jogo por criaรงรตes tuas, logo acho abusivo. :) Obrigado e continua com o bom trabalho!
Melana is already a standalone follower, I don't know what you meant with that honestly. This is just a visual replacer of the mod, please read the requirements and original modpage.
I mean I just want the follower (how she looks) no custom voice, no quest. Like just 'Melena' - Nord - femaleeventonned voice - basically Lydia that I can just pick up from Whiterun.
Obrigada! ๐๐ค O mod รฉ muito bom, acho que vocรช vai gostar! Eu acho a Melana muito divertida, nรฃo รฉ o tipo de companion overpowered, รฉ bem imersiva.
Probaby a dumb question but just want to be sure. Backported Extended says not to install it if playing version 1.6.1130 or later as it is redundant. I am on 1170 and was just curious if BE is still required? Thanks kindly and mod definitely looks great!
Thank you! I'm glad you like the mod! ๐๐ค No, for latest versions it is not required and should be fully compatible. Let me know if you face any issues during the installation.
This is one of the most natural and beautiful female follower replacers on Nexusmods.
I really appreciate how you manage to capture realistic features. Both masculine followers like Uthgerd and feminine followers like Melana come out so... life-like? I don't know how to explain it, but there's a new problem I didnt expect to encounter: all other NPCs in game look less realistic now because of your few replacers :).
Thank you kindly, I'm glad you like her and the other mods! ๐ค๐ I try my best to make them as realistic as possible. I don't use other npcs in my game at the moment, but I think using a good skin (like BnP with mature maps) makes the vanilla ones already 100% better. I wish to grab some from Nithi's packs, some from Northbourne... but it requires a time I don't have atm so all the rest in mine is vanilla HAHA
Thank you so much for your very kind words, this is one of the reasons I didn't stop creating. Thanks for taking the time to come here and leave nice words, I appreciate it! ๐๐ค
How did you learn to make NPC Replacers for skyrim? I just spent an entire day trying to make an NPC replacer of my own, but it still just came out looking all wrong.
Smp hair all messed up wrong eye texture etc
Sucks, it seems to be no good tutorials online for skyrim modding.
I used BellaDovah's tutorial, is not much different to do standalone followers and replacers, replacers are easier because you have the npc record already and doesn't need to create one, give them skills and all bla bla bla, you just tweak the cosmetic parts. As I don't use smp hair in my mods, I don't know how it works, tho. But do reverse engineering in other person's mod, to see how everything is set in CK. Is one of the best ways to learn too. I learned most of the things with my friends, Alenzar1 and TheMagnusTheory, and also AnnAccident, but BellaDovah's tutorial is very good, is simple and straight to the point. You can find it on Youtube.
Beautiful Replacer! Looks really well done and while still staying true to the original design, just overall one of the better replacer mods i've seen and i got like 40% of my modlist consisting of custom followers XD. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this and for reading my long ass comment :)
Thank you so much for your kind words, I'm glad you like the mod! ๐
About the troubleshooting, don't worry, I am pretty ignorant most of the times too HAHA I always ask for help for my friends that are more knowledgeable than me in those conflicts and anything else.
Well, about the dark face bug, need to point that my Melana is standalone, so she has her own body meshes and textures, it is not affected but what you have installed on your end, so disabling stuff would not help in this case. Basically, the only thing that would happen is a strange texture position in case you try to equip UNP clothes on her that shows too much skin. Besides that, the black face bug could be a conflicting of FaceGen/thing that edit the same records, I believe. She should be in the bottom of your load order to avoid anything overwriting her records. Maybe this article can be of use. MAYBE, just maybe, if you have RSV installed, it could be messing with her too (in this case, would need to add her in RSV exclusion list, but I don't have idea how to do that, I believe their modpage should have something about it, tho).
Let me know if you need more help, I will try my best! ๐

Such a lovely replacer in such a short time
I love it! You really captured her essence.
Thanks!

Everyone can do this with xEdit.
In its current state the plugin might cause issues or parts of it will not work as indented.
Thanks wickedface09 for testing! ๐

Can you tell me where the sword mod is from? I looked in the permissions tab and credits but couldnโt find it.
No, for latest versions it is not required and should be fully compatible. Let me know if you face any issues during the installation.
