[search] Simple invite NPC to your home mod

[Fraying9981]

Hi,

I'm looking for a simple/lightweight invite NPC to your home mod.

Something that looks like this:

either:

talk to existing NPC -> they come to your home for a defined timeframe and hang around

or, even better:

I'm at my player home -> NPCs come for a certain timeframe, they hang around

 

I don't care if it's cloning, if NPCs are generic or not. I just want NPCs to come for a limited time to my house without going through the hassle of making them followers first.

I don't need them to live at the house. Just come for a few hours, pretend it's a party.

I use MinAI so I don't event need any dialogue once they are here, I just need them to come and hang around

 

Some player home mods have NPCs inside them. Some do not. Over time I realize permanent NPCs at player homes are more of an annoyance, so I'm looking to have some NPCs (whoever) temporarily.

 

Does anyone have good recommendations?

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Posting here some of the mods I have found:

- Live Here Plus https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/68153 -> this seems to be for permanent living & heavyweight

- Sevants sort loot https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/235 -> same this is to employ NPCs at home, not invite them

- Guild Starter https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/14673 -> same, start a guild -> I dont need that.

- NFF: I see you can allocate followers to homes, but I don't even need that. I just need people to populate temporarily a home. Also would like to avoid going through recruiting them 1 by 1 to tell them to go to my home.

- Sexlab Eager NPCs has the option to create parties but again looks super heavyweight

If anyone sees this there is a way to do this in a strange way but requires a hands on approach. NPC Lookup allows you to search any npc in game and can teleport them to you, or you to them. Now if you don't want to teleport a person from Riften to Markarth and leave them to a long walk home, you can instead clone the NPC and an exact copy will appear that is unrelated to the main npc and you can do what you need to do. When you are done you can just get rid of them through the MCM but a quicker and simple way to do this is use Proteus and just send the NPC to the void.

yes in the meantime i found Modex which allows you to spawn NPCs

 

and also Skyrimnet: you can ask a NPC to follow you
