Follow (x) will follow followed (x). Henchman (x) will be attached (much like a summon) to Boss (x).

Got it to work!
Can you explain what is the difference between Follow and Followed? Also, I've found 'boss' status, what is it?

They indeed should.

Extra statuses should just appear in 'set status' menu or am I missing any steps?

I have no idea. A mod conflict perhaps? This one works fine for me (just tested)

For some reasons new statuses don't appear in GM mode. Mod is active, DE version. What can be the isuue?

For some reason giving npc's following status prevents them from entering combat.

After making them a henchman I no longer have the 'follow party' option for them.

No idea @Cyclo Hexanol Best option probably is to set "follow party" manually (again) on the henchman.

Is it normal that setting an NPC as a henchman makes it so they no longer follow the party from one map to another?

There is nothing wrong with this mod and it works fine with all other mods. It is the game that is broken after the latest patch.
Just check the steam and Larian forums to see the reports.

Removing Patch2.pak from ...\\steamapps\common\Divinity Original Sin 2\DefEd\Data and starting a new GM Game and save, then exiting the game and putting Patch2.pak back fixes the issue for me though.

heinz, this mod would be actually what we all need to step up our game.
could you please be so kind to try to fix that in a way that is functional even subscribing to other mods/maps? otherwise it is kinda purposeles...this is cool, but nobody want to play to gm mode in its vanilla version.
if the mod works without any othe mod looks like isn't the game that actually broke it, but seems like a problem in the mod itself.
Me and all the dos2 comunity would be thankful :D

sometimes larian reminds me the fat kid at the beach....he lets u build your sand castle and when u are almost done and turn to say "mom look :D".....he belly flop ovr it shattering your hopes and dreams...

I did a bit more testing. Unsubscribing and delting all Definitive Edition mods fixes the issue but sunbscribing to even just 1 mod for GM Mode in DE (even if it's just a map) the error will reappear.
It looks like the latest patch did break modding for GM Mode.

Would that error be: :

The files of mod "GameMaster" and or it's dependencies are invalid. Thiscan be caused by corrupt files or some files have been changed. You won't be able to play this mod in multiplayer" ?

If so, that has nothing to do with the mod but with the latest patch to the game. Subscribing to even just 1 mod for DE will cause this error.

If redownloading doesn't fix the mod working all we can do is hope Larian fixes the game. I get the error too, but the mod still functions for me though.

Indeed, me too. Cant wait to get all the abilitys available. Sadly i got no time to sript myself cause of studying.

that could be the greatest mod, i managed to make it work once, but when i close the campaign an error pop up in game about corrupted files in that mod.
i removed and re downloaded the mod, tried on a fresh campaign with no other mods, but it doesn't work anymore....what can i do? ç_ç
(i still have statuses but they have no effect at all now)

tnx. Gotta love Larian for opening "scripting" for GM Mode!

me, too. This is cool stuff. Thank you so much. Will definetly use and promote this if possible.

OH HELL YES
I LOVE YOU
