First thing I tried was the simple "resurrect NPC" sequence:
prid 00135f19 (Cass)
resurrect
disble enable
This brought her back but she would only say a line or two after which I'd only have the option to end the conversation. She was also not behaving like a companion (no wheel, wouldn't follow, etc.) Later I found:
SetPlayerTeammate 1
which brought up the wheel, but Cass still wouldn't take orders such as follow. I also tried resetting both her quest and birds of a feather but that didn't do a thing. Any ideas? Is there a way to spawn a brand new copy of NPCs? Thanks ahead for the brainstorming help
