RobCo's Slave Compliance Enforcement & Protection System, or SCEPS Frame 1.0.0

THE LORE:

 

Following total nuclear annihilation, the rebuilding of this great country of ours may fall to you!  But why should it?  As a Vault Dweller, you’ll have important things to do, like exercise, science, and educating the next generation of Vault Dwellers after you.  That’s why Vault-Tec is proud to announce yet another collaboration with the bright minds at RobCo Industries – SCEPS!

 

The Slave Compliance Enforcement and Protection System, or SCEPS, is a modular system designed to enable remote or even autonomous control of uncooperative persons.  Following a nuclear war, it is expected that the enemy will invade our nation.  These foreign devils will largely succumb to the leftover fallout of their own weapons, but those who remain will be hardy individuals who would be ideal candidates to carry out the manual labor required to restore America, if it wasn’t for their pesky free will.  With SCEPS, their ability to make decisions for themselves will become a thing of the past.  They will obey every command delivered to the SCEPS Frame’s onboard computer without question, lest they feel the wrath of one of RobCo’s line of state-of-the-art shock collars that works in tandem with the SCEPS Frame.

 

A system of such power should, naturally, also be reliable.  Have no fear, for if SCEPS had an “R” in its name, it would stand for “redundancy.”  Should contact be lost with the Vault or other controlling facility, the onboard computer will automatically initiate a pre-programmed activity loop until contact is restored.  This ensures that the “slave” is never idle, always performing valuable labor on our behalf!

 

While SCEPS is still in the testing phases, early prototypes of the system already show a 99.9% compliance rate.  RobCo and Vault-Tec are accepting willing – and very well paid, might we add - volunteers to help us iron out the remaining kinks.  Any interested individuals are encouraged to visit your local Vault-Tec Regional HQ today to learn more, and to fill out an ID-10T form if you wish to participate in this exciting opportunity.

 

OK BUT WHAT IS THIS MOD THOUGH?!

 

This mod is an expansion of colourtemp3000’s “New milking and devious costumes” mod, specifically the non-milking version of the “robo suit.”  I was a huge fan of the Dwarven Devious Cuirass from Skyrim and was always bummed out that nobody ever took it further than they did.  I also really wanted a version for Fallout.  I somehow missed the initial release of this and only recently discovered it.  (As well as the fact that someone made improvements to its Skyrim counterpart, but that’s another story.)

 

Anyhow, when I saw this a month ago I knew what I had to do.  The SCEPS Frame takes colourtemp’s mod and enhances it with several special features, namely:

• The frame is classified as a KFT Corset, as well as a DD Suit and DD Heels.  It uses KFT for locking and unlocking (because I find KFT’s system much cleaner), but benefits from DD’s Heels slowdown effect if you choose to enable that in DD’s MCM.  This way I can give you a user-toggleable slow while still using KFT’s simpler removal system.
• It blocks power armor, lockpicking, pickpocketing, and combat.  The first 3 are provided via additional DD flags, while the no combat effect is part of Torture Devices (which DD requires anyway.)  The SCEPS Frame prohibits its captives from doing anything “evil” but lacks the on-board intelligence to identify hacking vs. legitimate terminal use.
• Importantly, the SCEPS Frame does NOT block Pip-Boy use.  Nevertheless, I strongly recommend either Pip-pad or Pip-Boy 2500, simply because the vanilla Pip-Boy looks very strange on the robotic arm.  (Personally I use Pip-Boy 2500.)  Either way, this means the suit also doesn’t block fast travel, quest tracking, or the radio.  There are other mods which allow you to prohibit fast travel while wearing DD heels, and those will affect the SCEPS Frame, if you want that feature.
• It also does not block the collar, torso, nipple, vagina, or anus body slots.  This means you CAN equip a collar from Real Handcuffs, DD, or KFT.  You can also equip, for example, a bikini from Dicky’s Pinup Outfit, if you want to leave a little more to the imagination.  And of course DD plugs and nipple piercings are also an option.
• The SCEPS Frame also has mod slots for DD plug shock and vibrate effects built into the Frame, so you can use other types of plugs (iron, inflatable, etc) and still get those effects.  These can be changed at any armor workbench for 0 material cost.  Note that you will have to equip SOME type of plugs for DD’s periodic events to fire.
• On the other hand, it blocks all arm and leg slots.  This was done to ensure that other mods cannot equip cuffs or leg irons over the SCEPS Frame.  Several popular AAF mods try to stick Real Handcuffs on the player without any option to disable this behavior, which in turn will lock out the Pip-Boy.  This is my way of preventing that.  Note that the default slot for Real Handcuffs is NOT blocked.  You will need to install the DD Compatibility patch for Real Handcuffs to make Real Handcuffs use the correct slot.  (This is included in either DD’s or RH’s FOMOD, you just need to install DD first.)
• It also uses slot 33, the body slot.  That should be obvious.  There’s no possible way to make something like this work without that, sorry.
• Lastly, it provides strong Ballistic, Energy, and Radiation resistance.  I believe I’ve got the values at 200 / 200 / 600 right now but don’t quote me on that.  This is the “Protection” in “SCEPS.”  The idea here is that you can’t fight back (because the Frame won’t let you), so the Frame gives you considerable protection from damage to compensate.  You can, of course, still die.  You can also voluntarily surrender to your enemies at any time (by using a combat surrender mod), if you choose to.
• Also, while not a feature of this mod per se, the SCEPS Frame aligns surprisingly well with the Fframe used in Bound in Public.  In my own playthrough, I utilize Provocative Perks along with Bound in Public and the SCEPS Frame to form a sort of “alcohol-fueled personal teleporter” that is, in my head canon, built into the SCEPS Frame.  This gives you a means to rapidly explore the map...if you don’t mind spending a couple hours getting very, very friendly with the locals at your randomized destination, of course.

 

INSTALLATION:

 

Install the requirements below, then overwrite colourtemp’s ESP file with mine.  Bodyslide “DevRobo” (and the hands), then craft the SCEPS Frame at any chemistry workbench or add it with ESP Explorer.

 

NOTE: You need to drop the .esp file in your Fallout 4\Data folder manually.  I intentionally didn't set it up for mod managers.  I fully encourage you to use a mod manager, but to avoid providing support for them, this mod is intended for manual installation only.

 

REQUIREMENTS:

 

• A working AAF Installation, obviously.
• Devious Devices and its requirements, including Torture Devices.  I recommend RC9, but RC8 should work fine.
• Kziitd Fetish Toolset
• High Heels Sound – I will make a version without this if there’s demand but I personally don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want this.
• New milking and devious costumes + WDF pasties/bottles replacer.  Specifically, you’ll want the non-WDF version.  This entire mod is really just an ESP replacement for his mod, and all art-related credits (a.k.a. the hard part) go to colourtemp3000.

 

STRONGLY RECOMMENDED (but not required):

 

• AAF Sexual Harassment for use with Real Handcuffs
• Real Handcuffs, specifically for the Shock Collar, to use with Sexual Harassment’s collar master approach

 

MUCH MORE OPTIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS:

 

• The Cheat Terminal.  I use this for several things, but the main thing for this mod is you can set both Raiders and Gunners as neutral with it.  Sexual Harassment already does this when you make them eligible approaches, but this way you can bring a follower/escort to the raider camp with you and your follower won’t start combat with them.  It has a million other useful features too, like the ability to summon booze on command.
• Bound in Public and Provocative Perks.  As mentioned above, this gives you access to a simi-immersive and fun means of randomized fast travel.  Use this combo a dozen times and you’ll have unlocked fast travel points all around the map.  Alternatively, you can use just Provocative Perks as a very reliable way to spawn threesome/foursome animations on demand.
• Captive Tattoos is always a solid pick for playing as any kind of enslaved character.  “Free use” and “mistress property” tats go especially well with the SCEPS Frame, depending on your specific play style.  I recommend equipping the Frame before applying the overlays, otherwise you will probably not be able to see some of the tats you choose under the Frame.
• Finally, you’re going to want either a really capable combat follower, or else a death alternative mod.  Without a follower who can kick some mutated butt when you need them to, and even with combat surrender mods like AAF Violate and Purgatory, there WILL be times you die, since the SCEPS Frame disables ALL combat on your part and there are NPCs that lack valid AAF animations.  Personally, I’m using Synthetic Love, because there’s nothing quite as entertaining as being enslaved to a Synth version of yourself.  Note that Synthetic Love’s Synth Nora does NOT copy your overlays, though she does copy every other aspect of your character’s appearance.  This means she won’t wear your tats.

 

Also note there’s nothing preventing you from installing the SCEPS Frame on Synth Nora, or any other NPC, just like any other device.  The mod includes literally zero dialogue, story, or quest.  It’s just an item you can craft at the chem station.  Accordingly, you can RP it however you desire.

 

Anyhow...let me know if there are any bugs or such.  As far as I'm concerned this mod is feature-complete, but I'm not against adding to it if I can.  Note that I am not an artist, nor do I know Fallout's scripting, so what I would like to do and what I am capable of doing are two very different things.

 

PERMISSIONS: Same as colourtemp3000's permissions.  All I did was heavily edit his mod's ESP.  It would be weird if I had any permissions other than his.
