Deviously Gagged NPC Dialogue (public beta!) 0.9

This mod attempts to stop NPCs, including followers, who wear a devious gag from speaking common and random dialogue.

It should work for all followers and hirelings from the base game, and also mod-added or DLC-added followers who use the vanilla voice types.

The mod overrides several vanilla dialogue quests and topics, including greetings and good-byes, common follower dialogue and commands, random chatter, and world interactions. All of these have had keyword checks added to their conditions which should stop gagged NPCs and followers from saying those lines. Important dialogues, such as commanding your follower, have had new topics added with new subtitles ("hmm!") and a gagged sound effect from DD.

This mod does not alter quest-related dialogue! It should be fully useable in a normal playthrough. USSEP fixes are included in this mod.

Compatibility with other mods which alter the same vanilla records is probably poor. This quite likely affects follower framework mods or perhaps also Relationship Dialogue Overhaul (or similar). Please inspect and compare the mods carefully in xEdit. When in doubt or if you don't know how to use xEdit, please load my mod before any potential conflicts to ensure they work as intended.

Please note that this is a beta version! I did test it in my game, but with so many different followers and dialogue lines affected, it is likely impossible to find and test all possible permutations of NPCs and dialogue lines. I'd very much appreciate if some brave souls could give this mod a try and report back any issues they might encounter.

Being a beta version, I strongly advise against using this mod for a serious playthrough.
