Looking for working NPC spawn list modification that eliminates female guards and bandits

[poporaltemporal]

My issue is that many mods add female NPCs and as succubus character there are too few men out there. I would like to there for filter the default NPCs so that there was more males.

 

Sons of skyrim only doesnt seem to work.

Idk about first one but 2nd one obviously only edits vanilla npcs, and only generic ones. I don't know of a mod that patches other mods like that, you'd have to manually go into xedit and maybe just removing female variants would yield you what you need? Maybe someone else can tell you if something would just break here if you did it this brute force way. How many npc adding mods do you have anyway? Outside of modded quest npcs I only have Populated Skyrim legendary (edited by bakafactory), npcs are game and FPS killers I wouldn't run too many of populating mods. Btw do you have SE or LE skyrim? This is LE section but you posted one mod from SE and one from LE.

The masculinized list mod you mentioned should do what you want, as you describe it. Either it doesn't work as described or you are over-writing its changes with another mod.  What I would suggest is looking at all of the NPC list editing mods you have and make sure they aren't conflicting and if you have have mods that add NPCs or might otherwise change the lists, double check those as well.

 

What you might end up needing to do is creating your own patch mod in xedit. This is usually simple enough. Just load all of the NPC adding mods, skip those Sons and masculinized mods (remove them from the game, unless they do something else like adding more faces, voices or such) and add the leveled lists to a new mod (there are a lot of tutorials on how if you don't know already). Removing the female entries from the leveled lists will work just fine.  Removing the male ones occasionally has problems since a in couple of locations, only male voices are used for the dialog.
