JRHT Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Hi everyone, Firstly, I apologise if I've posted this in the wrong forum or if discussing mods from other sites is frowned upon. I downloaded the Modern Firearms mod from Dragonporn (http://modtype.doorblog.jp/archives/30282266.html) and it's working fairly well, but for some reason, my followers seem incapable of using it properly. They'll equip the gun, but when faced with an enemy, all they'll do is try and raise it above their head, despite having bolts in their inventory. I believe that it's not the follower that's causing the problem as they're capable of using the Flintlock Rifle (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26653/?). Has anyone had experience with this mod and does anyone know how to overcome the issue? I'd ask on the originating site, but it's in Japanese.
dje34 Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 First, thanks for the links ! Didn't know about them ! Second, as I didn't use them yet I cannot help you but if npcs don't use modern firearms correctly and use the flintlock rifle correctly maybe it means npcs don't have the possibility to use modern firearms. Maybe it has something to do with the archery perks/skills/system, maybe it is just that modern firearms are not supposed to be used by npcs, well actually idk but you could try to uninstall flintlock rifle and test modern firearms. Maybe there's a conflict between them.
JRHT Posted January 13, 2014 Author Posted January 13, 2014 @dje34 It could well be that NPCs can't use the guns in Modern Firearms. I uninstalled the Flintlock Rifle and the NPC had the same issue. I tried uninstalling Auto Unequip Arrows as well, but that didn't seem to make any difference. It's a shame - I quite liked the idea of arming my followers with automatic weapons.
JRHT Posted January 16, 2014 Author Posted January 16, 2014 Just an update - From trawling around the net, I've found that there's a problem with followers using "some" crossbows. I've sent a message off to a modder who has overcome this problem for guidance, but am yet to hear a response.
cornbreadtm Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Modern Firearms adds an enchantment to the equipped user of the firearms. Try this mod out, it makes it so normally non-functioning enchantments work on npcs. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48542/?

cornbreadtm Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 That means it doesn't work with followers. But with NPC Enchantment fix you could give them Zephr and let them pluck arrows at enemies very fast.
bleach025801 Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 I know this is unrelated to the topic but i installed the modern firearms mod sometime back and well since then i had to re-install windows and so lost it and ive used nexus mod manager to install it but it doesn't work and i cant remember how i did it the first time haha can anything tell me what im doing wrong and help please? :3
