I am setting up a new modlist, and testing as I go along. Last mod I installed was The Great City of Winterhold (which is great BTW) but when running around it, I noticed a few naked NPCs.

Then I coc to Whiterun, to do more testing and Aela, Farkas and Ria were fighting the Giant on the farm with nothing on, and no weapons (they were fighting unarmed!)

I opened Aela on SSEDIT and she has no issues - otft record, inventory with weapons all seem in order. Wondering what is causing this and how I can fix it.

Edit 1: see NSFW pic (because they are all naked) with More Informative Console here - https://i.imgur.com/p4kAD2B.jpeg

Is it a bad sign if the Base and the Ref are referring to different ESPs?

Edit 2: I worked it out. I had the first version of this mod - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/109152. It was applying to NPCs, and they were naked because they were too low level for their gear. Because it is all script injected, it wasn’t clear that there were any issues when looking at SSEEdit. The dangers of runtime-patching, manifest!

    Start a new game and check if the equipment is right. If it is, you most likely changed object IDs by swapping mods or replaced a still running AI script

      all of this is on new games. I haven’t finalised my LO yet, haven’t started my run. I am coc’ing into whiterun from the title screen here.

        Then it could be a incompatibility with a skeleton replacer / equipment mods / AI mods… If your loadorder isn’t finalized and there is no save to break,just disable mods in ~50 batches and narrow the faulty mod down
