Candle Pond Ranch - Gay

 

NOTE: I consider this mod completed. I have no plans to make further changes, other than fixing any bugs which may be reported.

This is a patch for Candle Pond Ranch, by gentester. Much smaller in scope than my Blackthorn patch.

What Is Different?

• NPCs are now all male. One is a potential follower and spouse.
• Removed all mannequins and displays in the rear room, replacing them with simple deco.
• Brief "welcome" quest to introduce you to the ranch caretakers.
• On completion of the quest, you get two horses and a dog (husky) which you can "play" with [cough], and a normal player-owned horse (palomino)
  

Requirements

• Dawnguard
• Candle Pond Default Mannequins
• KS Hairdos - Renewal
• SexLab
• SexLab Aroused Redux
• NOS Pierced Ears
  

Recommended

• Fuz Ro D-oh - Silent Voice
• SexLab Eager NPCs
• SexLab Tools
• More Nasty Critters
• Grimoas - Almighty TALOS - Statue Replacer
• Undress For Bed
• If you use Clothing & Clutter Fixes, see here for a patch.
  

Change Log


2016-01-03 - V1.2

• Removed nipple piercings and FloppySOS as requirements.

Thanks! Not just for adding more male content to help fill the void, but also for pointing out the cool originals. Now using Blackthorne & Candle Pond originals with my female characters, and setting up your versions (along with the tweaked Isle Of Mara) for my male characters.

 

Much appreciated.

[ButchDiavolo]

The master at work again I agree with vidiot, you always alert me to awesome originals as well.

But (here we go again) I am not a fan of floppySOS (more correctly its dependancies). So... could you also make a version which doesn't include floppySOS? *flutters lashes* please? *beaming smile*

[dragenx]

Installed the mod and I did the welcome quest talk to the Stewart he welcome my PC to Candle Pond and then he had his way with her after that he went into the house and now can't get the quest to move a long all three of the are just standing around the house I try talking to them and just got the normal dialog Now what do I do ?  

[ButchDiavolo]

Well, I have modded your modded mod of the original mod, so FloppySOS isn't needed anymore for me

 

I did notice something while I was modding your modded mod of the original mod. You have two gentlemen with a feminine suffix in their last name. The word -dottir or -dotter, means "daughter of" (just as -son means "son of"). Not at all a big deal though, I just wanted to show off my linguistic skills

I had this problem as well. Load a previous save and wait for him to go inside. Then follow him indoors and talk to him.

 

[ButchDiavolo]

ffabris... I am at a loss for words. What a stunning place Candle Pond is! And what clever scripting you did! My previous comments were made before I actually got to visit the place. After I tweaked it to get rid of the floppySOS dependency, I finally got to go look and wow... it is glorious. The men are hunky, the estate is gorgeous. And the pets and horses are very cleverly um... playful *cough* As much as I love Blackthorn, I think this is going to be my new favorite home. Thank you so much for waving your fairy wand over the place. I am sure the stickiness will wear away in time

There is nothing beyond that, which is why I recommended SLEN for more fun.

 

Edit: Actually, what Vachnic said: save and reload if that happens. But beyond the welcome sex (with all 3 NPCs), that's all there is.

Ha- thanks for that, I didn't know. Oh well, it can stay.

LOL!  Glad you like! I can't take credit for the place at all, however ... except for finding it on Nexus.

 

Actually, there was weeks of work behind this, most of which I threw away. I intended to create a quest with Talos, in a new worldspace. But I was spending 95% of the time fighting CK and its quirks and not doing much actual story writing. Finally, when a basic scene simply refused to even start, I gave up and ripped it all out.

 

Anyway, please endorse the original mod on Nexus, it is a superb build!

[dragenx]

Thanks I finish the first quest  I did play with the dog and horses well also the cows and goats

Hi! First of all I would like to thank you for your dedication in making male oriented mods!

 

Will there be nonfloppy version? Bouncing balls look nice but it doesn't work properly for me.

And I have got no support on the original floppySOS topic. So I don't use it.

I don't plan on making a separate version for that, no - unless there is much demand.

 

But it is easy to rip the floppyness out. Get TES5Edit, load my patch in it, then go into the Outfits section, and for each of the outfits, remove FloppyBalls. Then close TES5Edit, confirming when asked to save changes.

I noticed that some wardrobes in Candle Pond don't keep their contents, specifically the wardrobes in the master bedroom. When I stored some armors and clothes in them, I went outside, came back because I forgot one and opened it, they had the standard fine clothes again and all my armors were gone :-\

 

Did anyone else notice this or  am I special again?

[Guest ffabris]

Hum, not touched those. Perhaps they respawn, dunno.

 

[ButchDiavolo]

A followup on the storage space on the top floor: NONE of the wardrobes are safe for storage. Apparently once you leave the house and come back in, the wardrobes are respawned and you WILL lose your items. As far a I could see, only the Jewelry box on the table in the master bedroom is safe (aka, didn't respawn). I will check the storage in the rest of the house to see if those wardrobes are unsafe as well.

[ButchDiavolo]

Well OK, I have checked all the storage inside and outside of Candle Pond. None of the wardrobes, end tables and small wardrobe appear to be safe for storage. This excludes the Enchanting and Alchemy storage closets though. As far as I could tell, all the mentioned storage are set to respawn. And apparently the location respawns as soon as you set foot outside the building.

I checked with mfgconsole and the issue seems to come from the original Candle Pond mod (NOT this gay mod).

 

Of course it could entirely be caused by my setup (remember, Skyrim hates me with a passion), but just to be safe, please test if the wardrobes are safe in YOUR setup before placing valuable items in them. For example, take out the contents and place a flower (or something) in the wardrobe. Then go outside and walk around a bit. Then go back inside and check the wardrobe to see if the orginal items have respawned (usually Fine Clothing items) or if your flower (or other cheap and abundant item) is still present.

Another check to see if respawning happened is leaving internal doors open. When you return and the doors are closed again, the building has "respawned". Then check to see if your item is still in the wardrobe. If not, again, it is NOT safe to store your items in the wardrobes (noble and simple), end tables and small wardrobes!.

 

[Guest ffabris]

I'll have a look once I've caught up on reading. I'll take the opportunity to make the SEQ file, while at it.

 

Added: OK, I poked at it and can't find anything wrong. The wardrobes, etc are not set to respawn, so I dunno what's up. Anyone else have this issue?

 

Meantime, I made the SEQ file and uploaded that as 1.1. No need to update if you have no issues with the dialog.

[Mylor41]

The storage issue is being raised and discussed on the Nexus Mod site as well.

[ButchDiavolo]

The storage issue is being raised and discussed on the Nexus Mod site as well.

 

Thanks for telling me, Mylor. Unfortunately after reading the thread on Nexus, I wasn't able to find that discussion :-\ I did find talk about the food "containers" in the kitchen, but those work in my setup. It is "just" the wardrobes (Noble, common, small) and end tables that don't work for me. Could you tell me on which page it is discussed, please?

 

Thanks

 

P.S. do you have problems with the storage as well?

[Mylor41]

I looked it over again and I didn't see it either except on page 9 when there was a brief mention the 3-day respawn relating to the mannequins. So maybe I just confused it with this thread. But everything on the Nexus pages are 2-3  years old so I would hope that they've been resolved already. I'm new to all of this modding so I read so much it starts to get blurry in my old brain.

 

I haven't installed or used this mod yet as I was reading as much as I could before doing the installation.

[ButchDiavolo]

Thanks for checking again, Mylor. I did find that mention as well, but I found that the house respawns as soon as you leave the "cell", i.e. go to the giant's camp next door and come back.

 

However, I *think* I have found the problem... I did some more snooping with mfgconsole and the Creation Kit. The problems are not caused by either Candle Pond Ranch (the original mod) nor Candle Pond Gay (this patch). Instead it is caused by another mod I use called "Clothing & Clutter Fixes". For whatever reason, the creator of that mod has set all wardrobes, endtables, drawers and small wardrobes (both normal and noble) to respawn. From the mod-page: "Cupboards, Dressers, End Tables, and Wardrobes will now respawn.  Also, they now use custom leveled lists so that the items they contain will be more appropriate for the apparent class-ranking of the furniture, as well as the type of furniture (i.e. cupboards contain dining and food related items, dressers contain clothing, etc)."

 

In short this means that if you also use the mod "Clothing & Clutter Fixes", the mentioned furnitures are NOT safe to store your items in! If you don't use this mod, there should be no problem.

 

I have contacted the mod creator and asked for permission to post the adjusted esp-file here for others to use. If/ when I get this permission, I will post it. If not, I will post a "guide" how to change the settings to correct the respawning.

[Guest ffabris]

How odd ... I wonder why that choice was made ... to have wardrobes respawn, I mean. Anyway, glad it isn't my fault.

Thanks for this heads up Vachnic! I have that mod installed too. That would make them all unsafe storage. Yikes! I think I will deactivate that mod now because that would work in any house. I think I was certainly seeing results from this mod however when looting in dungeons, etc. -- more appropriate finds were in all the drawers I checked. So it is a working mod for me. But I wouldn't want it working in my houses.

 

If you figure out a fix, let us know please. I like the leveled and appropriate loot in dungeon drawers. B^) Just don't mess around in my house!

 

[Mylor41]

Well, Vachnic, after reading the description for Clothing & Clutter Fixes again, I won't deactivate it. I really do like that mod. But I will just not use any of those pieces of furniture for valuable storage. I can understand the respawn now since it will level up contents with the PC. So if you come up with a fix, definitely let us know about it please.

 

I had put some stolen septims in the end table in Lucas' room in Breezehome. I will have to check and see if they stay around. The last time I looked they were still there but I don't know if that time limit has transpired  yet. I think I'd been gone more than three days and I'd certainly been in and out several times since I put them in there. [i just didn't want stolen gold on my person in case I nabbed for something else and then lose all my gold, not just the 13 stolen septims. ]

[ButchDiavolo]

Well, the "funny" thing is that the respawning ONLY happens with Candle Pond. In all my other player homes, this doesn't happen. I checked them when I found out. So I have no idea why it does happen with this specific house mod. Also, most house mods don't respawn the moment you leave the cell and come back. Those mods have a "NoRespawn" tag ( I think). Unfortunately I haven't been able to find in the Creation Kit where you can find/ set this "NoRespawn" tag. It would probably make things a lot easier if I (we) could just add that tag to Candle Pond.

For reference: the usual respawn time limit is 720 hours/ 30 days (in game).

For checking purposes: an easy way to see if Candle Pond has respawned is to leave the doors upstairs open. When you leave and come back and those doors are closed again, the house/ cell has respawned.

 

I am still waiting for a response from Kryptopyr (creator of CFF) for permission to post the adjusted esp file here. In the meantime I am still looking for a way to make Candle Pond not respawn at all.
