?Lots of construction works going on. Blog evolve with my understanding of the whole thing.

 

Blind experimenting while under @Corsec's watchful eye and with @AndrewLRG's custom gas mask to compare led me to the idea to create a DD Custom Device from Predator-JR's Outfits. They just scream "lock meee".

I have no clue, so instead of a patch there will be a new plugin to archive this. After some try and error it seems to work ingame now.

I made a check list from this text: https://github.com/DeviousDevices/Docs/wiki/Creating-a-new-device

 

? Copyright Warning: Created Devices like this are for personal use only.

 

? This guide is an attempt to help absolute newbies (like me) with no clue about TES5Edit but with a strong DD fetish ?

 

 

How to begin is the hardest question and here are the tow Tes5edit commands that triggered everything else (careful those are addictive).

 

Right click menu on plugin entry:

> copy as overwrite into ... (useful to create patches)

> copy as new record into ... (useful to create a new mod)

 

Rudimentary Checklist to create a new DD custom device:

 

Program needed: Tes5edit

Material (either self made or existing one):

• Armor Addon
  • from the original mod
• World Model
  • from the original mod

 

Armor DD templates needed for (template = existing standard device):

• Inventory Device
  • is the script part
• Rendered Device
  • is the visible part

 

 

Method:

• Armor Addon
  • copy as new record into...
    • creates new plugin (esp)
• Standard device as template
  • Inventory Device
    • copy as new record into...
      • add to the new plugin
  • Rendered Device
    • copy as new record into...
      • add to the new plugin

 

The Inventory Device:

• Keywords
• Script
• Properties
  • device inventory
    • if this isn't correct = shows in inventory or no DD effect
  • device rendered
    • if this isn't correct = wrong device will be shown ingame (most likely a standard DD copied as template)

 

Rendered Device:

• Armor rating
• Slots the Item uses
• World Model
• Armor Addon
• Name
• Weight
• Description
• Keywords

 

 

Now for the Screenshots:

 

Example for: @Predator-RJ's Latex Condom Suit Kit

 

Requirements:

• Tes5edit (or xEdit)
• Skyrim.esm
• Update.esm
• SexLab.esm
• SexlabAroused.esm
• Devious Devices
• Latex Condom Suit Kit

 

How to start:

For this example only the Latex Condom Suit gets modified.

 

• Start Tes5edit
  • optional: right click > deselect all plugins > select only the plugins you want to load
  • Activate the plugins you need

 

 

Creating a new plugin (esp) while grabbing the original Armor Addon from Latex Condom Suit.

The AA will include all information we need as base for the custom DD:

 

 

Now for the DD Inventory and Render part of the new plugin.

For this I take DD armor entries as template.

Armor:

 

 

Next and last step.

Modifying The Inventory and Rendered entries to fit the Latex Condom Suit

 

And done (I hope).

Closing TES5Edit will save all changes.

Activate the new plugin LCS04 in Load Order and test ingame.

 

Notes/Tests:

Latex Condom Suit mod has some nonfunctional ground models, replace them with working ones by changing related Male world model, Female world model (for example from DD or Skyrim.esm armor, any *ground.nif)

If Update.esm is missing from masters of LCS04.esp it's devices won't show up ingame > with Tes5edit right click menu > add masters > add update.esm

If 2 times for the same device show up in inventory check Armor > CondomSuit_black_Inventory for wrong settings

If device equips but shows as DD catsuit check CondomSuit_black_Inventory for wrong settings and CondomSuit_Rendered Armature

(interesting for later) if equipped part of the Latex Condom Suit is invisible, deactivate DD device hider and check again (hood for example, maybe used slots can be changed)

 

Here is an example that seems to work:

LCS04.esp:

 

LCS04.esp Tes5edit:

 

LC04.esp Screenshots:

DD blindfold effect kicked in! zad_DeviousBlindfold

Suit is BHUNP but PC is UUNP, might explain the gaps

Hood = zad_deviousgag + zad_PermitOral = simulates ringag

 

Ideas for a better workflow:

Instead of renaming the DD templates right away, just add an "x" or something (if anything) to it's name and only later give them the final name.
