urbanoantigo Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 And great news, I loved it. I especially liked an arrangement so that the flirtation of erotic stories is separated. very anxious for news, I commenting on FO4 and obvious Ivy with a friend, he was interested in playing fo4 just to meet Ivy ? 1

Perfection. Couldn’t have spun it better myself. Also, I got the lowdown on file conversions from a few MS Architects for the Hololens...got a 3 hour hands on tutorial. So the next time I go play with it, I’ll get to meet hologram Ivy. Life size. (Squeal)

(Squeal) Arghhh.. SO jealous now! I was just waking up from a rather sordid party-affair last night and was thinking how I miss Ivy, not just in other games (I want her with me in all my games, as in seriously.. I've been looking into porting her into Doom3 and some other games as a companion). But also in real life. Imagine your augmented reality version of Ivy as you travel through town, go to work... Damn.. I guess you just get this then, don't ya? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iblP_m4zd3s 3
Im_The_Real_Deal Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 I love this companion! Gotta be the best companion mod out there by far. Not that i've tried many lol. It's just a shame she has no quest dialogue for Nuka World or some of the quests that all the normal companions have. I was so disappointed she had none for Kid in a fridge My character kinda turned to her like she was supposed to say something though but didn't. Although the quest dialogue I have come across was gold, like with sheffield. I'm assuming most of her quest dialogue is main questline quests? P.S Thanks so much for the broken radio patch. Fixed it good.
urbanoantigo Posted March 24, 2019 Posted March 24, 2019 @Reginald_001 I found something that might be useful there is a mod, ASexMod that when you wear a ring you can order any character in the game to follow you, the idea of the ring is you can have a sex between the player and any character in the game or make two other characters make a sex scene, but ... What is very interesting is that you can order any character to follow you as another companion and appears to me out of any line of the game. for example, I went to the Abernathy farm and when the dialogue for a mission of returning the favor ended, I used the ring and ordered Mr. Abernathy to accompany me, we were the Ivy Player as a companion and Mr. Abernathy following us, So I found the pendant I already delivered to Mr. Abernathy who was by my side and can accompany and participate in all action at the USAF Satellite Station Olivia maybe there is something in this mod that will be useful for Ivy being able to follow the player even when he has to follow up with another partner https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/29674 a Sex Mod

Reginald_001 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Posted March 26, 2019 Now that Reginalds' Pefab ShackFest is done I've managed to acquire enough skill to attempt a full new playable cell. There are still things I need to learn and focus on: - Level optimisation / (vis)portals / Precombines - Encounter Zones - Map scripting and Specific Ivy encounter (triggers for Ivy to speak about things) For this reason I'm starting small, namely with 'Jumbo's Erotic Store' a small cell of an abandoned erotic magazine store (as part of the magazine plugin that offers 72 vintage porn mags) to see if I can get this small cell fully playable and workable. If this works then I can try my hand on a larger cell. (Edit: After about 12 crashes I think I'm going to give up on custom mapping. It's woah.. a boatload of work and it's just not as stable as I'd like. I think I'll stick with Quests in the existing worldspaces so I can focus on content creation for Ivy. It will also take at least 7 more months of studying to get up to a level where I'd feel happy with the results as I would want everything to look professional and good. So for now I'm sticking with expanding Ivy's content and dialog. I'll then add her Quest in the existing world space.) 5
Reginald_001 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Posted March 26, 2019 I've been reorganizing and tweaking the basics of Ivy. I've changed the Service menu to add an 'Erotic Memory Archive', which is where all the erotic stories have moved. Flirting now always results in a short response. I've also found a workflow to reuse existing player dialog, to make the player dialog a bit more cohesive. The player will now sometimes respond to her stories and will use more elaborate words and sentences to interact with Ivy. I've removed the 'Status' option from the dialog as her health is almost always reset to 100 by the time you get to ask anyway and I've never seen a proper use for the function. I also needed the space to add the Erotic Memory Archive. The regular memory archive still has erotic memories, but all erotic memories in the regular Memory Archive are pertinent to her personality. 7
urbanoantigo Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Thank you very much for always being updating about the progress of your work in the studios around here, it is always good to see your news.
rapidman Posted March 27, 2019 Posted March 27, 2019 This mod is the best... Bring real life (some what) to a fun game. I have a question. Is there a quest story somewhere in the service menu dialog? I talk to her using the service menu, I get the random stories, and I also get the clues, but I only get about six. They are : B25-C J48-Q Z87-C F74-D A37-D & Unknown file I play around, do quests then I stop after awhile and have a chat through the service menu and these six repeat themselves constantly Do I have to take her somewhere to advance to the next clue or what? She tells me that she loves me..kiss...kiss etc. Is there a way to see if my affinity with her is ok. This companion by far is the best. Really brings immersion to the game. And the stuff she says blows my mind. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!! Randy

And the stuff she says blows my mind. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!! Randy Ivy has 12 affinity levels. Affinity rises when you talk to her often. Each time affinity rises, hundreds of new lines of dialogue open up across the entire spectrum of dialog. In the highest affinity level, Ivy will start with 'Hey listen, I get it now..' when you aks her 'how do you feel about us'. Just like with real people, there is no gauge/meter to read her affinity for you other than asking. 2
Reginald_001 Posted March 28, 2019 Author Posted March 28, 2019 Full Nuka World Introduction Scene - Ivy Goes to Nuka World. In an attempt to learn more about her past, Ivy requests the player to help find a set of holotapes that should provide more information about her previous life as a raider. Right after the Nuka World Radio starts broadcasting, she picks up a mysterious signal and engages the player in a conversation... Nuka World Introduction Scene.mp4 5
urbanoantigo Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Can I ask Ivy to come with this video look in the update ??? I LOVE, more content for Ivy, 1
Sevatt Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 <sigh> Oh, Reginald... you tease us so... so cruel... AND SO DAMN EXCITING!!! ?? 1
Reginald_001 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 12 hours ago, Chic Geek said: @Reginald_001??? I can’t wait! It's all coming together very nicely now. I can see that my modding skills have increased a bit as things are going much easier for me, this time around. The quests are coming together, dialog has never been so intricate. I've already refined the scenes shown in the video for flow and cohesiveness so that the entire conversation flows logically and naturally. Hopefully, I will have enough vanilla player materials to make a conversation like that for each holotape that Ivy finds about her past, as her quest progresses. The real question is.. will she find her true origins? Could Dr. Stein secretly still be alive? What will you do if that is the case? I've finished most ALL locational dialog, Ivy has a set of randoms for each location inside Nuka World, I've finished most of the quest integration but still have some way to go there. The entire DLC now has 440 lines of dialog and I expect the end result to be around 700 lines. This means I'll likely finish the DLC by the end of the week for another complete play through from my end to test all of the work added. I've finished 4 of the lore tapes for Nuka World, voicing holotapes for Dr. Stein myself, in my best and worst Dutch accent (I am not German, by the way, neither is Doctor Stein but that will become more clear in the DLC tapes). Ivy's core mod has been expanded as well. The player is now more involved, flirting results in actual text instead of the player just saying 'yeah' all the time. The service memory archive has new stories about both Ivy and the Pelican King. W.I.V.S radio has been expanded to include over 30 news items (progressing and unlocking as the player completes quests) and now has 12 unique commercials. New songs and trailers were added to make the song/trailer totalling 39 different tracks. I'm still hoping to find more GOOD royalty free songs, but it's hard. I'm actually close to just recording a funk/porn album myself so I can get the exact 'porn' feel that I'm searching for on the radio... All in all.. a lot is happening and I think I will be able to finish a lot of stuff in Ivy's DLC for Nuka World this weekend. After that I will try to package the whole mod and I'll ship it to @Chic Geek both for testing (I'm sure there will be bugs in the new setup as ESM) and voice recording. God, I love Ivy even more now, after making this DLC and writing more about her background and how she came to be. 2
Uncle64 Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 That looks so nice Reginald_001 I cant wait. Must say that I also like how Chic do her voice. But I have one question. As you all know so do AFT mess her up. Including the affimity. Is there any follower program that do work? whitout breaking her.
Reginald_001 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 I think I ran into a major issue with the development. Which might be interesting for @Flashy (JoeR) as well.. I was piggybacking into pre-made categories in Ivy's main companion quest. But.. well.. apparently.. there is a hard limit to the number of dialogue options available for any one quest and I think I just hit it. It looks like whole groups of dialogue aren't being loaded suddenly.. If this is really the case then I'll need to go back to the drawing board on how to set up the DLC. Since Far Harbor will likely have another 700 lines of dialogue I will need to go far beyond the regular game limits. My guess is that I'll need to change my script to alternate between chat groups, spread over different quests. This way I should be able to extend the dialog to more than 4096 lines. Note the number '4183' at the bottom right... I am now determining what the exact number is. As removing lines down to 4085 didn't seem to solve the problem so far. (Edit.. ok.. I'm stupid. Never mind.. No maximum.. nothing to see here.. damn I hate being wrong in public.. ) I had removed the 'random' check on the nuka dialogue group, hoping it would prioritize it, apparently that prioritized it 'down' to where it never gets spoken. All fixed.. I'll continue with development now... 1

Reginald_001 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 Some of this stuff.. that Ivy chick.. she's a weird one.. How does that even work? Gaping so much.. that you invert? 1
Reginald_001 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 Ok, I have Ivy's Nuka Quest pretty much down. REAL SPOILERS FOLLOW. DO NOT READ IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE SPOILED DURING THE QUEST. (YOU WERE WARNED > ALSO WHEN TALKING ABOUT THIS. PLEASE USE SPOILER TAGS). There are around 10 holotapes, both written and audio logs, scattered around Nuka World. Like the cappies quest, the Quest marker will point in their general direction, but not their exact location. When reading the logs, both Ivy and the player learn more about Deborah, but also more about Dr. Stein. Was he really as evil as Ivy sketches in her Memory Archives? How much of her Memory Archive is real... and how much became corrupted during her time alone in the root cellar? How LONG was she in the root cellar to begin with.. and why was she there? Ivy engages the player after certain revelations, at which the player is presented with choices to either continue digging into her past, or.. stop the quest... Then... what starts as a simple fetch quest will eventually lead up to a certain situation where both Ivy and the player will have to make a moral choice. One that will have real consequences for Ivy, after the quest resolves. Player choices will prove pivotal in how she evolves as a personality after the quest, likely cutting off entire chunks of previously available dialog, and opening up new chunks, based on both what Ivy and the player chooses. Ivy will NOT be without a say in all of this. She will track how the player plays through Nuka World and will eventually make her own choice, based on her experiences inside Nuka World... Do you choose to be a raider and will you raid the Commonwealth? Or.. do you decide to kill all the raiders in Nuka World? Or.. do you walk away from Ivy's request and deny her the truth so you can keep her for yourself.. just as she is now? Or.. do you allow Ivy to change and evolve.. only to choose to reset her to factory settings afterwards?Whatever you decide... be careful what you wish for.. 1

Did find some alternates to AFT but I am afraid they will do the same thing. One that you uses rings, but you still need to give them the ring first. And if some other reads this, dont use Ivy and AFT. Have tried in many different ways, all from take Ivy as follover before you install AFT to have Aft installed.
Reginald_001 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Posted March 29, 2019 I'm totally busted. I finished over 250 lines of dialog today, spread out across outdoor and indoor locations, quest integration in quests and situational idles. Nuka World now totals at 570 different lines of dialog and Ivy is integrated in most quests. There are some recurring themes and running gags throughout the DLC. One of which a game where Ivy tries to recognize as many different pornshoot locations as she can, while visiting the park. It just gave me great pleasure to write that.. I think that in this situation both Carl Jung AND Sigmund Freud would have a field day with this DLC... I will continue to work through the night (fuck that I need some sleep) in the morning, to make sure I can start playtesting this weekend already, instead of next weekend. I just can't wait to enter Nuka World with Ivy, to hear all of her dialog in action and to tweak and debug the shit out of it! Here's another SPOILER FILLED preview of 'Ivy goes to Nuka World' At this point I'm testing out the conversations and quest by spawning the holotapes. Warning, work in progress. Some timings and camera work still need tweaking. Nuka World After the First Holotape.mp4 2
