Walk into the root cellar and talk to her. The quest is just a pointer so players can find her. But once you know she's in the root cellar, you don't need the pointer.

New player that has run into this issue even with the radio patch installed. Where is the root cellar?

Yeah I just found her. You can use the console to get the holotape and look at it to find the option to track her location.
Press ~ to open console and type: help NX-2C 0 ...That will show you the ID you need, then type: player.additem ID number 1 ...That will add the holotape to your inventory.

 

The cellar is in Sanctuary. Walk to the very end of the culdesac and where that broken down house is go past it to the right and you'll see a cellar behind one of the next houses over. She's in there plain as day waiting for you to do unspeakable things to her.

Edit: Oops! It's to the left at the end of the culdesac, not the right, and it's behind the blue house. I just followed the instructions I gave you and realized I was a little off... like exactly the opposite. ?

Hello again Reginald_001,

I just wanted to come out of lurking to say that you do whatever it takes for you to be happy.  I can't say I understand everything you have and are going through but I wanted you to know I think of you as one of the pinnacle Fallout mod authors to have ever come on the scene.  If you set up a patreon as others have suggested before I along with a lot of others would be willing to help no doubt about it.  The creations you have made especially our beloved Ivy have changed and or made a lot of people take Fallout worth playing or sticking with.  What you created with Ivy has been phenomenal in that she has even inspired others to try and duplicate her magic or abilities.  I have been with you and Ivy since day one of her release and I can honestly say that Ivy's magic still never ceases to amaze me.  Thank you so much for all the great times I would not have had in Fallout if it wasn't for having Ivy with me.

Reginald,

 

You and Chic have already given us such a gift with Ivy, I doubt anyone would be upset at the decision you made.

 

As to what you said about Ivy and your inner demons, so to speak.....  I would guess that Ivy is a type of therapy.

 

I went through a very dark time and depression in my life.  I was close to being found with a note next to me.

 

Then I started exploring digital art.  Now mind you, I can barely draw a stick figure, but with software like poser, DAZ and Blender, I began to doodle about.  I would spend entire nights on the computer just to create one scene and then render it out over another 5-8 hours!!  My machine today can do this in minutes and even seconds, but that was 15 years ago.

 

I'm no artist, but I became better and better at "expressing" my inner demons.  My art, and it became surprisingly detailed and good, became my therapy.  In the end, some of my renders were SO photo realistic and to my own surprise better than the majority of what you see even today.  I had NO idea that I had such creativity inside me, I just needed a catalyst and a medium that allowed it to flow out of me.  And that from someone that thought he couldn't draw a stick figure.

 

I get the sense that Ivy is, or has been a similar medium for you.  The only difference is that I shared my art with only very few, as it is deeply personal to me and quite... explicit....   But it saved my life, and today I no longer need that outlet.

 

Through Ivy, I think you have made many friends here, whether you realize it or not.   I wish you well in your personal life as I'm sure do we all.  You are never truly alone, even if it sometimes feels like it.

 

And.... don't be ashamed to take donations if you need them.  You have GIVEN something wonderful FOR them, up front.  Just... keep the option open.

Thanks for your kind words! I have always tried to express myself through creativity. Music, also 3D art, modding and writing. Ivy was a new experience for me though as it was a true character that I wanted to create. I just had no idea that this would be the form I would create her in. It was @Flashy (JoeR) who introduced me and Chic to help voice her.

Is there a way to make ivy use her custom Body-meshes and textures? Or might this be included in the 5.0 release? Thanks in advance and great mod.

I think someone did that for Ivy 4.0. But I don't know where. Try to search the site for 'Ivy custom body' (top right corner of the site) and make sure to click 'advanced options > include ALL of my search terms' before searching.

@Reginald_001 Just wanted to say I have been down that dark depression hole before and all I can say is good on you for keeping going.  You release this mod when you feel it is ready and when you are ready to do so.  If you need anything I can do or just need someone to talk to let me know.  I know I am just some random guy on the internet but I wanted to let you know you are not alone.  Also thanks for the AMAZING mod.

I wish that there was more that I could do in this moment, but even I am no longer able to reach her. ?

 

Still, I have absolute faith that she will let the cat out of the bag and come back, when she is able to.

All of you, and especially Ivy, mean more to her than anyone can possibly know. #SheWillReturn

I searched multiple times, but the search function returned nothing. I did as you said, i choose to include ALL of my search terms and it found only two TES mods with those words in theyr descriptions and titles. Maybe the file has been removed? Where else could i look for it? I hope im not bothering you too much.

Try the Nexus.  There are some looksmenu presets for Ivy.  Maybe that's of some help.

I forget who made it so I can't tag them, I think it's page 50ish near or before my posts with the IKAROS pics (Back when I though Ivy was a Synth) I'm going to go look for it, BUT if I cant find it. I do have the files saved to my PC, I can upload them. If the creator has a problem with that I will delete the post.

Yes, this file will do that for you 

 

Sorry for the lag.

I used the Radio Patch 2 version .esp and kept the script included.

 

This file will allow you to use custom body meshes and textures.

I included a set of CBBE body meshes and 4K textures for a default fill.

BodySlide support is also included for her nude body. 

It will be listed in the drop-down as Ivy Body.

If you want physics I'm sure you know what to do.

 

Sorry but Ivy cannot use a unique skeleton without changing her race.

I have yet to find a way to give her unique facegen textures.

It seems you can create a dependency, but that texture isn't actually used.

So no unique face textures or skeleton.

 

Thanks Reg, everyone enjoy

@Artorius01Here are the Custom Body Meshes for Ivy that @Bardonan made. I Have used them and they do work. You just have to overwrite the files you want with the files you have. Lemme know if you need help with that

@kchurchjr; Thank you so much. That really helps.

You are very welcome.

You sure that's gonna be a good idea? From what Reg has hinted at, Ivy is gonna have a more organic, interactive stance when it comes to the Brotherhood and your involvement with them, and this won't be altered when mods like Thuggysmurf's quests alters the BoS. Just thought I'd give you a heads up in case you want to consider it from an RP standpoint.

 

Archiving is always a good idea whenever possible, especially now that it's been streamlined thanks to Cathedral Assets Optimizer. Having the game installed on a SSD also helps greatly with load times as well.

I see what you are saying and I agree. When I start Ivy 5.0 I'm doing so Without the Thuggy Add ons. LOL It'll Also be the first time I've done Far Harbor and Nuka. Been waiting on Ivy to experience it with her. I guess I didn't Speak Clearly on that on. 

 

@Tarmane Yes, She requires a New game

@urbanoantigo you were fiddling with this. Can you help this fella out?

Hi guys, very good night.
@JJDemon

 Unfortunately I have no way to help his colleague about XDI at Ivy, I gave up after digging hard and finding a solution, read almost everything I had in the comments of XDI in Nexus, until I find a "latest version" that said solve the problems that I was experiencing but to no avail.
 

Something that gave me a light was a Pacth made by a Spaniard for his Heather Castin translation to work with XDI, this only served to understand that XDI doesn't work "automatically" with all mods, and in some comments gave the understand that "only works with mods that have already been made with some preparation to run XDI", but I can be mistaken.
 

I even remember that there are some escort mods that only work if there is XDI, and others just break with it, I remember I had problems with other companions I tested, I don't remember if it was "I am Darlene.

That's it, I'm sorry I can't help.


 

Taking advantage I'll tell a case ...
 

Spoiler

 

As I was doing some Portuguese translations at the time and using XDI on it, although it's a great mod, it seemed like a bit of a hassle to work with, so I left it to try more on another occasion,
But ... as life is a box of surprises ...

I don't know if I already commented but I managed to get a version of Ramsoware encryption just when my backup hard drive was plugged into the computer and .... years of work and personal files turned into smoke, so far I have not recovered from it, it really was an apocalypse digital here with me,

Now the good side of the story, after this forced reset in my digital life I'm starting over just what's really important. Soon I will have FO4 running again and starting from scratch, I think I will enjoy and make some gameplay videos from scratch and of course with Ivy from the beginning.

To distract me a little of all this, I was moving a little with streaming and did a test channel on twitch there I found that my potato computer (I remembered Gladus in one of the Portal) has to improve a lot to play with it, so ... back to FO4.
 

I'm looking forward to meeting 76, even with so much criticism but while we have over 35,000 mods for fo4 and Ivy, 76 has neither 300 nor Ivy.
 

By the way, I need to install the translation programs again and get in the way for Ivy 5.0, and I need to revise the Ivy 4 translation too ...

that's it, sorry so much talk but I'm away for a few weeks and wanted to break the news and leave that hug.

 


Big hug  @Reginald_001 and forum friends

Sorry, how does archiving work?
Is it something I can do, or how can I do it, to improve my performance?

You use this tool. It has an FO4 profile, and besides optimizing meshes, textures and other things, it also can pack mods into bsa/ba2 archives. Just make sure you put the mod you want to pack into a temp folder first before you run the tool.

You should enjoy both DLC just because, and with Ivy programmed to respond to the new content, I am a bit envious. But still, she'll make it fresh again just by having her along...

 

Gage? Longfellow? Don't worry, you won't really miss a thing using Ivy (although when playing as a female PC, Longfellow can be a bit brusk).

Archiving is simply storing something in a place so it can be found/used later. I have a 3 TB external drive I throw every mod I ever downloaded onto so if I need it again, I don't have to hope I can find it.

 

Performance is a matter of understanding publishers want to sell as many copies as possible, so the minimum specs needed to run something can be questionable. Recommended specs are a much better indicator of what will give us a satisfactory experience.

ABout a year ago while I was going to start the DLC, I decided to look up Ivy and see if she had support for it. Figured I'v started playing with her may as well continue. I thought I'd wait and see for the DLC update. I may have to play through just to see what they are like. Something new to do. Like I didnt know the BOS were Mini Nazi's till I played through thier quests.

This mod "Main Menu Red Rocket Garage (Truck-stop Addition)"  https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/24399 breaks Ivy's Radio and when used with your Red Rocket Basement causes repeated crashing. Just figured I would let you know it's not compatible.

 

Another Red Rocket mod that breaks another Red Rocket mod. How quaint...  Choose one of the two mods  if you want to use RR, they won't work together.

As for Ivy, best to ask them why the hell they are breaking the Sanctuary world space for a Red Rocket based mod.

Lol. This is actually a pretty normal thing. I've tried out around half a dozen mods that change or add to the Red Rocket, and maybe half of them were actually compatible. Here's what I found.

 

Compatible:

Red Rocket Safehouses

Red Rocket BRE

Clean and Simple - Red Rocket Startup

Mighty Clean Settlements - Red Rocket

Any mod that doesn't alter the RR settlement script, main building or settlement precombined objects

 

Incompatible:

Main Menu Red Rocket

Red Rocket Reborn

Covenant Walls for Red Rocket

Any mod that completely overhauls and/or alters the settlement, it's scripts, and it's precombined objects.

 

Honestly I just added Covenant Walls for Red Rocket to the incompatible list because the walls intersect and all but cover the entrance to the basement.
