Hello ! I'm kinda new to the world of modding, so I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge about this particular subject. I'll try to put as much context as possible so you can help me accordingly ! If I am in the wrong channel please redirect me to the place I should post this. So, there's a character made by SEXYBONO called Daedric Pei. And the author made a follower mod with it. And, I'm really looking forward using the character by installing the mods used by the author, but I came across multiples problems. He didn't put a racemenu preset to use the character as we like (I think it's the author choice or just he didn't thought about it, whatever) and so, I tried to "create" artificially the mod preset by using a mod called "Alternate Actors SE" (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/34448) and "swapped" by character with the follower Pei, but the result is : I don't have all the mod used by the follower to even look close it. (Please look at the pictures uploaded) So, I tried messing with the files of the follower mod to see which mod I was lacking to have my character look like her, and I've come across only one thread talking about it when typing the file names in google. My main point is : is there a way to "retro-engineer" a follower mod to see what mod was used or no ? Am I doomed to look for something else ? Thank you for reading me. ? Edit: added "follower" to the last sentence..png.0b1224e484880a73436f2daeeb1a2c0d.png)

Seeking advice on turning modding skills into a viable career
b00tyblues posted a topic in Off Topic
I had a hand injury semi-recently that severely limits my ability to perform jobs that involves physical labor, which is what I've done for much of my life. I've been working on physical therapy for the last few months, but sadly little has progressed and it's even gotten to the point where typing for too long can be painful too. Naturally, this means that any job that involves lifting anything heavier than 15-20lbs (which is the vast majority of jobs) is off limits. So I'm at a point where I need to start exploring what other skills I have, or can develop into a career. I don't have formal experience with coding, but I've dabbled in modding various games (Skyrim, FO4, Stellaris, BG3 and more). It isn't the same as coding, but I've gotten to the point where I'm self-taught in understanding basic file structures and script triggers. Obviously I can't present my clusterfuck of 500 sex mods as a portfolio to employers, but there has to some way I can translate over a decade of self-taught game modding into skills for a viable career path. As I said before, I don't have any formal experience in coding language, but it's certainly something I'm willing to pick up, provided I don't have to drop hundreds or thousands of dollars on courses or something. Same goes with learning Unity or other game engines, it's not something I'm willing to spend a bunch of money on if there's no job lined up for me after. And on a related note, I absolutely loathe social media and the fact that Discord has more or less become the default for how game devs network and communicate with players. Networking has always been a challenge for me in any career, and it's especially frustrating when it's filtered through vapid parasocial platforms like Discord by default. It's not something I'm completely opposed to using if I have no other choice, but if I could still advance a career without having to resort to social media, that would be ideal. So yeah if anyone has any advice on either coding courses to take, or other places/advice that will help develop these skills, I would greatly appreciate it. -
Morning all, First of all Thank you in advance for any and all advice I get. So, here goes, I desided after a good few year of having a story for a game plot in my head that i would jump right in and try to develop it myself, Tried different engine, First i tried Renpy to make a visualRPG, didnt go well, Then i tried unity, that wasnt too bad but some of the things i wish to add to the game where not possible with this engine so lastly i tried Unreal 5.2, So far its going well but i need help and advice on animations both Standard and NSFW, I dont mind paying for them as long as they work with unreal 5.2. Thanks again Denver25

Hi! For a long time i wanted to make some nice porn videos with story in hd but obviously my pc didn't let me, now i bought new pc and i'm finally able to do do some stuff. For now, i'm looking informations how does everything work and if it is even possible. I want make my own unique characters, some of them just edited some new, also with different proportions (Fatter) and (Taller), same with monsters(normal and new), animals just bigger. And now the questions is, do i can add UNIQUE NPC/Monsters/(For Animals i belive simple edit would work right?) with thier own animations or its all about editing already existed actors. Because im kinda confused, i saw many mods like Immersive Creatures, is this is all modeled? And NPC using more body morphs or its also can be modeled. ? I saw also some mods that gives some random proportions for all npc but not sure if this is gonna work for me. Like i said, i just need few characters just for recording, not for playing. So all i want is my own unique characters with specific proportions and animations also able to make quests for them to record it. How's that work, what's the best way to achieve this and is it even possible. Like for now i can see 2 options, if this is even possible to atchive and ofc i could be wrong, i know sh*. Model characater and put him as a follower ? But do i will be able to do quests for him or as a NPC and use some body morph, but also not sure what with monsters and creatures, sorry i really dont know how this works, just presenting my point of view and sytuaction. Any info will be appreciated, THANKS! +image (showing what im looking for)

Hi, I'm playing Skyrim VR, and hit 255 limit recently. I'd like to add some more clothes/follower mods to the game, which I read are safe to merge. Can you please look at my mod list and suggest what already installed mods are safe to merge? Maybe someone already tried merging some of them, so I'd really appreciate the suggestions. Mod List -
So, I've been running Defeat by BakaFactory, and I love it so far. It has been fairly easy to set up,. but where I get messed up is the tagging of what animations I do and do not want to play. Does anyone have a good idea which tags I should run? Animation packs in SLAL have such a huge amount of tags, and not all packs are consistent in tagging. Defeat lets you check which animations can play with the restrictions you've set yourself, but it isn't a very smooth way to go about it (because of the load time). Anyone got recommendations? I run with all defeat scenarios enabled. -
I like the walk and the 360 movement from https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34713?tab=description but i dont like the running or sprinting or the idle, is there anyway of just having the walk? -
Alright, This is not a request for help - but more a heads up for anyone running Sexlab & related mods with Perkus Maximus. I had endless non-stop issues, hard freezes- CTD's, Gameplay glitches etc... etc... and for the life of me could not figure out why(I obviously did hence this post ), until I noticed patchus maximus.esp's deps (after like 10+ new games LOL). If you are running perkus maximus (I love it), and use LL mods, make sure to add the LL mods to the Perkus patcher's blocklist, and save youself weeks of grief and hours of lost progress. (Quest mods, gameplay. etc... should be on the blocklist - armor and weapons you can and should leave in). Perkus's patcher is VERY intrusive - and tends to try and pull EVERY mod in your loadorder in - with some stunningly catastrophic results. But with excludes configured properly in data\skyproc patchers\patchus maximus\files\blocklist.txt, your game will pur like a kitten. So I know this post may seem pointless - but if it helps 1 other person avoid the mess I had it served it's purpose. Attached is my blocklist, for reference. Cheers! BlockList.txt -

I've just started using the CreationClub horse mod, that comes with AE. I have only used Arvak in the past, so now that I have all these horses and they keep teleporting to me when I fast travel, I find them very annoying. Does anyone know a mod where I can make my horses stay at a stable and not fast travel to me all the time? I've tried Convenient Horses SE and Immersive Horses and neither one seems to stop the horse from teleporting to me. I liked the look of Immersive Stables, but it only supports 5 horses, which is not enough slots. I would really prefer a stable where I can keep all the horses, but bare minimum I want them to stop teleporting to me. To clarify, I don't have Arvak yet in my current game. So I can't just summon him to make my other horse(s) stop fast traveling to me without cheating. -
Guards just walking around while the pc is in a lewd action is really messing with my immersion, any mods to help with this? For example I'd like for the guard count to be less in the nights or their roaming off or something so getting assaulted in the night in a city or a town becomes immersive. Any suggestions whatsoever is appreciated. -

I am trying to make a mod that will apply a different texture if sex is engaged with an animal than if it is with a human, how is it determined what is used. -
Hey everyone, i used to mod oldrim and had a good base of mods, i believe i sued to use TDF, but now i am playing special edition and wonder which on i should use and what you guys, the community think. From what remember TDF allowed you to chose what sex you had, be it oral, vaginal, anal, etc. Which i really like, however to my knowledge Radiant does not. But i do like that radiant has a harassment type system from what i can tell. I dunno which to pick, what do you guys think, i'm wanting a really good Realistic (and if possible), immersive take on prostitution, thanks for any help!

Backstory's backstory: I started with one sim (Cora), then decided that she needed a sister. So I created a new sim (Julia), using her save as a base, made changes to height, weight, facial structure, hair, personality, etc. Saved her off and everything was great. Backstory: No I've got the idea to add a niece (Lena) to the household, but the only way to actually get the family tree sorted out, is to create parents for my two sisters, use NRaas MC to do an instant baby on the parents, and connect them all using NRaas MC's family interactions. From a purely family tree perspective, that works fine. The niece shows both of the sisters as aunts. My original idea was that the niece was having to join the household, because her mother died in a freak accident, the "baby daddy" is nowhere to be found, and the grandparents are both dead. Method used: Since I didn't have any issues creating Julia from Cora (many real-months of gameplay ago), I decided that their parents should be built using the two sisters as a starting point. So I (again) created a new sim using the save of Cora, aged her to elder, and made a few other changes (but not too many, since they were just going to "reside" at the graveyard). This gave me the mother (Angelina) I needed for this family. Then I created another new sim, this time using the save of Julia, aging to elder, changing gender to male, a few quick tweaks. Then dropped them into a new household (using the create household tool to set the husband-wife relationship). Went live, switched over to that household, created an instant baby between them (in menu NRaas | MC | Intermediate). Used MC | Advanced to set the new baby to be the mother of the niece. Then triggered the age transition a few times until young adult. Then switched back to my household. (Only reason for selecting their household was so that they wouldn't go running all over town.) Then force killed all 3 of them. This got the job done. For that world. Issues found: Today I was starting a new world, and was going through finding all CC items used by the sims in my world (so I can clear out the unused packages and fix any issues found). What I discovered, is that both the grandparents/parents (Henry & Angelina) have 'Special' outfits that turn make them look identical to the young adult sims I started with. Henry looks like Julia and Angelina looks like Cora. The same happened with the Martial Arts outfits, but NRaas Dresser allowed removing those outfits. I cannot find a way to delete the Special outfits (which seem to be the one they turn into after getting the university welcome kit). So... How would you go about creating parents? Would you care about whether they 'looked' like they were related, or would you just create 2 new sims and not worry about the whole familial resemblance thing? And, yes, technically, Lena doesn't look anything like the rest of the family, since I grabbed her as a pre-made teen from somewhere else. (For some reason I didn't think of that until typing this up just now). -
nsfw sims 4 Critiquing this video (no sound) 2
violeteyes posted a topic in The Sims 4 General Discussion
Hello! I'm back again with another video. I was wondering if you all would mind giving me pointers again. I'm still new to video editing but I took the advice I was given from the first video I posted (which I will openly admit was awful) and tried to improve! This is still something I mainly made for fun (using only Win 10 video editor) but I wanted to know if here was any way to improve it especially in terms of engagement and video flow. This is the whole video (it's not a clip, but it is short) with no sound and features Vanessa and Vance (her brother I made) Jeong, meaning it does contain "family romance". So, if you don't like that, I apologize. Thank you! I just wanted some advice on how I can make it better or what exactly is wrong with it. So...what do you all think? DRS_A_Loving_Visit.mp4 -
What happened is that when I started using these mods I took all the fun mods I found and played them on Vortex. And of course it was a problem. Especially with AAF Violate, the characters were standing inside each other and the animation didn't work. When I tried to fix even Sex'em up didn't work anymore, so I uninstalled everything. Now I want to start from scratch and look for some simple tips, first, are AAF and Four Play the same Framework or can I only have one? And what order or care should I have to make everything work properly?

Hey all, so I just had this problem and did some googling around to figure it out. I found a bunch of similar threads here with the same issue but I figured it out and the problem was quite simple. But first, let me describe the issue I was having and what I did before I figured it all out. So, the night before I was playing Skyrim SE with my mods just fine and dandy. No problems or anything. Today, I go to check my save but lo and behold all the sudden my game would crash after launching it in MO2 from SKSE at the Main Menu. I've always done this and I've been modding for a while so I figured it would be an easy fix as I must've forgotten to check a Master off somewhere or I'm missing a file that relies on another file. However, I couldn't find anything. I was panicking for a second as I had just had a huge game breaking bug a few weeks back that made me reset everything and start fresh over again and I definitely didn't want to spend my day modding the game from scratch again. So, I refer back to the guide I followed in modding and made a few adjustments to my load order while enabling/disabling some mods. Still, nothing. I was at my wits end. I kept searching for an answer that would save me from having to restart this process until I happened upon a small tidbit of advice. "If you're launching Skyrim and you have it on Steam, go to Steam and verify the integrity of the game's files." "It can't be that easy" I thought to myself. But anyways, I tried it. There were six files that couldn't be verified so Steam had replaced them and when I go to launch it through MO again the game works! Everything worked, I had went in and tested various animations, fast traveling, entering in and out of buildings. The works. But like all things modding IT'S NEVER THAT EASY so I'm coming here to post my load order, modlist, and plugins just incase you friendly folks have some advice for me as I'm not perfect nor am I a professional at such things. Thanks all! TL;DR: Modded Skyrim SE randomly decided to CTD on main menu after working fine for some reason. Fixed it by verifying integrity of game's files in Steam. Posting Load Order, ModList, and Plugins to be reviewed just incase I'm missing anything. Thanks all! modlist.txt loadorder.txt plugins.txt -
Since this seems like the best place to ask and there aren't really any tutorials/resources (or folks to ask directly). And many here are accomplished coders and modders. Hopefully I'm not upsetting anyone or breaking the rules talking about unity. Not to mention how comprehensive and vast the frameworks of Wicked Whims and SexLabs. Would people consider making frameworks like the previously mentioned for Unity games? or would that be too much of a grey zone for folks. There happens to be a lot of usage of BepInEx and Harmony and dnSpy. dnSpy has an amazing write-up faq-sheet. https://github.com/0xd4d/dnSpy/wiki/Debugging-Unity-Games But I'm unable to... Admittedly, Connect the dots. Get it running correctly, And build a proper workflow. Making/creating an add-on sideload to integrate a framework would be amazing specifically adding animations to say something like AI＊Shoujo or recent title. Ideally, I want to add animations. Do I attempt to learn Unity? Should I get a .NET dev environment setup? Work on the tutorials from tutorials and guides? as well as going through modders resources? Has anyone tried or have they gotten stuck at a particular point? Or is it something I'd have to beg wheedle and cajole through someones patreon's paywall? Thank you for your time.

Hello my fellow Loverslabbers I am going to buy a new gaming PC, and i need your advice. What i'm looking for is a configuration that allows me to run Skyrim in acceptable framerates and without stuttering or freezes under these conditions: high-end ENB setups (category Tranquility / K ENBs or similar) 4K or 2160p Downsampling 4K/8K textures + parallax where available high uGridsToLoad (at least temporary for landscape art) hi-poly mesh replacers and flora mods and whatever else you can get for grade A screenarchery. The absolute price limit would be 2000 EUR (2200 USD) for everything including monitor, keyboard, mouse and operating system. This is just my personal pain threshold for the budget, but so far i never paid more than ~1750€ for an entire PC that is supposed to last a few years. So keep that in mind for the pricing. Just talked to a friend who is always up to date with everything PC-related, but he knows nothing at all about Skyrim-specific requirements and that's where i need you guys. Preliminary config looks like this: GeForce GTX 970 4GB (Sapphire suggested) - 390€ (AMD is not an option for ENB, and SLI seems to be problematic) Intel® Core i7-4790K - 350€ G.Skill DIMM 16 GB DDR3-2400 Kit - 135€ ASUS Z97-DELUXE - 290€ -------- ~1165€ for the core parts I also need a monitor suitable for (photo)graphic work, so criteria like color fidelity are important than 20 gaming presets and zero reaction time. Now i heard that the fancy 144hz gaming monitors have issues with low framerates, gonna need the verdict of screenarchers who tried this with extreme ENB setups. 2 random suggestions have been this: BenQ XL2411Z (144hz) - 300€ Acer G246HLBbid (60hz) - 140€ Further i need suggestions for the rest: SSD HDD Cooler / Fans Case (so far NZXT Phantom 820 Ultra+ Tower (250€) or NZXT H440 - Midi Tower (140€) have been suggested) Mouse / Keyboard Soundcard Whatever else i might have missed And i guess Windows 7 is still mandatory for gaming and Skyrim in particular. I also have a Sennheiser PC350SE headset which is probably the only thing that i want to keep from my old PC. Hoping for good input, thanks in advance
