I doubt I did something wrong. People would've found it a long time ago.

Anyway, try this version and let me know how it goes: Laura's Bondage Shop.esp

It's a temporary fix, but it should work.

 

It’s not that no one finds it, but people don’t know this knowledge or can’t be sure which mod caused the problem?

 

I just tested the search curse quest, there is no problem

But now I'm kinda sad. This error must have been there for ages, somebody should've found it earlier, but it seems like nobody plays that quest.

I'll look into it further.

 

I mean, I played it multiple times in the past and never had issues, even with an old install+mod list barely held together with spit and prayers. So this is probably not an easy bug to come across.

No reason to be sad. I admit that I haven't been seeking the curse for quite a while now, but when I did, I never had any problems with the mod.

I dimly remember that I had the problem of "you're already doing sth for me" once, but even back then I couldn't remember which quest that might have been, as I usually make a lot of things in parallel...

I don't know for sure if it's a bug though. I couldn't find any dialogue for stage 15500. It could also be because it's a mess, but still.

Well, it was thoroughly tested and it's been out for a long time. So I don't really believe that issue has been there the whole time. Maybe I just couldn't find it.

I rarely play repeatable quests unless they're required to do something, like to gain reputation or relationship ?

Super glad it works now.

 

It's v3.31 with some adjusted conditions.

 

Yes, go back to the previous one. This was just a temporary fix.

 

Glad I could help.

I'm so sorry it makes you sad !! ?

 

And it's probably my fault for a bad organization of my mods and for some updates !

Sorry again for this, and thank you so much for your help ! ❤️

Your mod is absolutly awesome, I'm playing it since the first release, and to me it's really the best DD mod !

I dont normally post things, but I would also like to chime and say that I actually really like seeking the curse >.> its easily my most oftenly played/ran repeatable objective across base game and my mod list. I (I would say never but the way skyrim works ill stick with "havn't yet" xD) have not yet run into this bug either.

SLA is needed for the DD Framework and does not use masturbation animations by itself. If you have masturbation animations, that is because of other mods you have installed and not a problem of this mod.

If SLA arousal gets high enough other mods can trigger a masturbation animation. To prevent this from happening go to the SLA MCM, select the Puppet Master tab, set the Exposure and Time Rate sliders to low values (like 0), and then select Lock Arousal. This will prevent arousal from increasing.  This will prevent masturbation animations and DCL traps (if below the threshold values for traps).  This will not cause any issues with the mods just keeps events from happening. You do need to remember to unlock arousal in SLA when you want these features to start happening again. I typically lock arousal while doing Laura’s quests so I can experience the story as she intended.

I’ve played Seeking the Curse numerous times (on SSE) and on multiple play-throughs and have never had a problem. I’m just getting ready to try Embershard Mine now … wish me luck. ?

[JustMe469]

Same here. I've played that part probably at least 10 times. Every time I've gone to Swain, then back to Laura and it works just fine. 

I don't have the most stable game but that part has never been an issue for me. 

[Robmonster13]

Took my time and did a few checks while playing through A Familiar Face on SSE twice.  Each time I had my followers wait for me before starting the quest so I didn't have to worry about them accidentally messing something up.  I did not encounter any problems at all and everything worked as expected.  The only minor issue was a few lines of dialog that did not show up on the first play-through but did show during the second attempt with a couple of different lines missing ... a totally insignificant issue.

 

Every quest in the mod works together perfectly to tell what has to be the best story/overall adventure in Skyrim!!!  I have to say ... up to this point the quests with Jade have been my absolute favorites!  Bring her back as often as you want!  ?

 

As for the new collar ... I definitely hope that it makes additional appearances!  I'm not the most creative person, but I would love a recurring challenge to wear the collar for a period of time, with the minimum and maximum times increasing each time that you accepted the challenge.

 

I cannot wait to play through the next quest ... but it will have to wait until tomorrow.  ☹️

[Alpha719]

Does anyone have the 3.21 english version Laura's bondage shop I accidently deleted it but have the new updated version but it doesn't show up in my game since i don't have the original.

There's something weird going on. Because I can't find any dialogue for stage 15500. So I don't see how it can work for you. It seems like I just did something wrong and forgot to add it.

When you played it, was that a long time ago?

Here it is: Laura's Bondage Shop v3.21.7z

You can just use the newest version though. No need for a new game or anything.

Yes, it has been quite some time since I last played Seeking the Curse.

I must've messed it up in a somewhat recent update. I'll fix it and upload a new version.

[Laura]

v3.32 is here!

Alright, it's not as exciting as the colourful letters make it seem. But some stuff needed to be fixed.

About the guard freezing in SSE, I investigated it and even installed SSE myself, but I couldn't replicate it. It worked for me. So we're now looking at either perfomance issues or mod conflicts.

 

 

Anyway, here's the underwhelming changelog for v3.32:

 

Added: [A Familiar Face] There is now a teleport trigger at the bum end of Embershard too. So if you want to be cheeky and enter from the back, you'll now get teleported too.
Thanks to Naps-On-Dirt for the report.

 

Fixed: [Seeking The Curse] After going to Swain, there was no dialogue to advance the quest. I added it.
My guess, I messed it up when I changed some stuff not too long ago and everyone thought it was their own game at fault.
Anyway, it's fixed now.
Thanks to Hellethea_ for the report.

 

Fixed: [The Lost Merchant] A text error has been fixed.
Thanks to Neghthraw for letting me know.

 

Fixed: There are no longer underscores in the EditorID's of the new locations. That seemed to mess with how saves were made in SSE.
Thanks to Tatras66 for telling me what was going on.

Awesome Laura. Guess I'll have to install this version now, and at some point (maybe this weekend?) I'll actually get around to getting started on this again. Been having too much fun dragging Serana around.

 

Nice thing is, because I haven't actually done anything with your mod, not even set up the MCM, I can nuke the old file and replace it with the new one with no issues.

[Robmonster13]

Ok. Just finished playing through the Origin quest on SSE latest version BEFORE 3.32. I played through twice using a save from right before touching the totem. On both play-throughs I was forcegreeted by the guard, led through to my cell, and was able to sleep without any problems. After waking, one actor came into the room almost immediately but I had to wait for the second … as they apparently had to walk a long distance. I used the wait action instead of just sitting there staring at my screen. No problems with cooking any of the foods. However, on my first play-through I was not able to talk to the actor after making cooked beef. I was able to talk with everyone other than who I needed, so I quit the game and started my second play through. On the second play-through everything worked as intended. The only issues were occasional missing dialog lines but this did not stop me from understanding the story; so I consider this as insignificant. 
 

This is not really a spoiler but instead my thoughts on the update and quests so far.  I decided to post it so that those who do not wish to read it … don’t have to. 
 

Spoiler

A Familiar Face was awesome and I really loved this quest!  Kept me busy and made me think.  I enjoyed Origin and, without any doubt, it is the most significant quest to date, as it provides the backstory for the entire mod. Without Origin the story to date would not be complete.  As such, it is essential to the mod.  However, From the playability aspect, Origin is probably my least favorite quest from the mod since it didn’t really challenge me or make me think.  In many ways it was more like watching an interactive video than playing a quest.  That said, I rate this update A+++ and cannot wait for the next update or completion of the story!!! Once again, Laura delivers a home run!

Just for clarity, if you had Laura's mod installed and you have visited Whiterun stables then you have indeed "done" something with the mod. There may be starter scripts and stuff just to make MCM exist at all but those may do other things like set starting variables for quests and stuff.

 

Still.. you probably won't get issues but it's not technically a clean start if old version of mod was installed and enabled in load order.

Um is this just the update because I installed the 3.21 english mod and the store isn't in my game even with the latest update 3.32 I need the actual store mod but for some reason I don't have the store in game I also tried creating a new save and the store isn't in the game either I did enjoy the mod but ofc I deleted it by accident

[rhino_4]

Does 3.32 require a new game?

Thank you so much for that! ❤️ It seems small, but it is a big quality-of-life improvement for SE players!

[pappana]

Bondage in skyrim seems to have become a trend, there's apparently gold to be made.

 

I now have four shops in my game. The captured dreams shop, The dollmakers shop, Elvira's shop and Laura's bondage shop.

 

Skyrims citizens have certainly opened up their eyes to restraints.
