Devious Devices - Laura's Bondage Shop (16-aug-2025) v3.55 LE & SE

Vor 2 Stunden sagte Kitty Kisara:

 

Alles gut.

 

Falls Sie die bearbeitete Version heruntergeladen haben, beenden Sie „das Spiel“, falls Sie es aktiv haben, und aktualisieren Sie den Mod anschließend.

Dann sollte die Hauptquest dort weitergehen, wo Sie aufgehört haben, bevor Sie die Variable aktiviert haben.

 

Ein erneutes Speichern sollte in diesem Fall nicht erforderlich sein.

 

Wenn Sie die Quests bereits abgeschlossen haben, ist alles in Ordnung, da 3.51 nur einige Fehler behebt.

 

I still have an old version - which doesn't contain the new quests... it is the basis for my blog story - which I am offering here in the thread as a solution for the main story.

 

since I really know the main quest pretty well - I didn't want to have to play through it over and over again for my current test runs (which serve as preparation for the continuation of the blog story)... I need to start the game again for each test run - because I have to install new mods (which are necessary for the story)

some one.... any one...?

[Jbecker97]

Found a bug, or I guess I'm blind. In the quest Taking Control, I am stuck on the objective to Free Jade in Sloane's house. Can anyone help? I have tried reloading and loading saves just before I came here to get her to spawn in. Nothing is working.

No, not really any help, just answering so that you know your request wasn't lost. Guessing that you're on SE/AE because it's one of the known bugs, that the moving of characters go wrong. With this mod it's good practice to save often - hard saves that is - so that you can begin any quest of the main story again when things get wrong. With the longer ones towards the end of the storyline, even saves mid-quest are advisable.

Laura is a great storyteller, but no professional modder, so programming-wise this is a mess... uhm... just like Skyrim...

 

Only real advice: do you have any mods that affect the free camera? Those are prone to mess things up.

Or - do you have a long modlist, especially ones with a heavy load on the papyrus? In that case you might want to start a new game with only the minimal amount of mods, because it's only getting more complicated.

Ich habe einen Fehler gefunden, oder ich glaube, ich bin blind. In der Quest „Die Kontrolle übernehmen“ stecke ich bei dem Ziel fest, Jade in Sloanes Haus zu befreien. Kann jemand helfen? Ich habe versucht, neu zu laden und Spielstände zu laden, kurz bevor ich hierher kam, um sie zum Spawnen zu bringen. Nichts funktioniert.

 

Well - I assume the cell is locked and you need a key?

 

Where are the keys?

 

If you remember a previous quest then you actually know...

Having some issues with the new version for SE. Playing as a Khajiit and a lot of restraints are invisible now. On the quest after Jade where you're put into the tough iron prisoner chains and they don't show up. I've ran body slide and I can get the non-quest versions of these restraints to show up fine. Wondering what else I can try to troubleshoot?

 

Thanks in advance.

This mod doesn't change the model of any restraint. Did you change other mods too?

Hey Laura, just dropping in to feed you a compliment cookie: The new update is great! The thotium collar is well paced, a fun little mechanic to mess around with.

 

I hope we'll see some new quests soon, I enjoy your style!

Thank you so much. ❤️

I'm on the process of reinstall skyrim for the 10000th time and I want to try out the new update without going through the whole main quest again. Is it possible to use the console for the quest or will that break things?

It'll likely break. The skip is still in the works.

[Toopa]

I'll just do a quick replay, glad to see the mod still updating

Well that is the problem. I opened every cell and used ghost mode to open Kats cell, but nothing moves it forward. I even ran upstairs to sloane's room because I thought that she was in the upstairs cell, but that was a bust too.

 

Am I missing something?

Isn't the key just on the table in the anteroom?

Nope. Nothing there. Just reloaded the save to check, and nothing there.

 

I guess my shit is just scuffed, for whatever reason.

[Toopa]

I'm getting a crash at the point where

Spoiler

you find Njadi behind the rock and then she transfers her bindings on you

 

I know its not the mod's fault because I've played through it in the past. Is there a way to skip this particular step with the console without breaking everything?

Du findest Njadi hinter dem Felsen und dann überträgt sie ihre Fesseln auf dich

 

Ich weiß, dass es nicht die Schuld des Mods ist, weil ich ihn in der Vergangenheit durchgespielt habe. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, diesen speziellen Schritt mit der Konsole zu überspringen, ohne alles kaputt zu machen?

 

It will break the quest ... you should clarify why a CtD happens there

Don't change the stage to skip stuff, it'll break.

About the crash, it must have something to do with the restraints that get equipped there, Maybe something with your characters body or physics. Do you remember what you changed since the last time it did work?

[Toopa]

Thanks for the reply. It just froze on a black screen as soon as the restraints equipping should happen. Couldnt even open task manager.
Anyway I did manage to skip past with setstage and I finished the whole main quest normally afterwards.

[Zaflis]

Is there something different in how DD are equipped and unequipped in the latest update? Having some issues with Unforgiving Devices. I played through the whole main story without issues, but then trouble starts with the new minigame. I see devices added by the collar, but whenever i unequip them, or the mod unequips them they remain registered on UD. So they show in the list of items i can struggle from and in debug MCM even if i don't have the items in inventory anymore. I even checked in console i don't have even the hidden items of the devices.

 

That in turn seems to cause issue where equipping new items in those slots is not possible until i unregister them manually in the debug MCM.

Other than that the collar's effects are working, she gave tiny sapphires from doing a delivery quest etc. and also did some ingredient fetching quests.

 

I have tried to troubleshoot UD to what i can, updating all to latest (including DD-NG on AE) and patching every device if they weren't already. As said the main story didn't have these problems and neither does DCL.

 

Edit: It actually now started happening largely with other devices too, i might have borked my UD.

Vor 6 Stunden sagte Zaflis:

Gibt es im neuesten Update einen Unterschied in der Art und Weise, wie DD ausgerüstet bzw. nicht ausgerüstet sind? Ich habe einige Probleme mit gnadenlosen Geräten. Ich habe die gesamte Hauptgeschichte ohne Probleme durchgespielt, aber dann beginnt der Ärger mit dem neuen Minispiel. Ich sehe Geräte, die durch das Halsband hinzugefügt werden, aber wann immer ich sie ausrüste oder der Mod sie ausrüstet, bleiben sie bei UD registriert. Daher werden sie in der Liste der Gegenstände angezeigt, mit denen ich Probleme haben kann, und im Debug-MCM, selbst wenn ich die Gegenstände nicht mehr im Inventar habe. Ich habe sogar in der Konsole eingecheckt, dass ich nicht einmal die versteckten Elemente der Geräte habe.

 

Das wiederum scheint ein Problem zu verursachen, bei dem das Ausrüsten neuer Gegenstände in diesen Steckplätzen nicht möglich ist, bis ich sie manuell im Debug-MCM deregistriere.

Abgesehen davon, dass die Effekte des Halsbandes funktionieren, hat sie winzige Saphire durch das Abschließen einer Lieferquest usw. gegeben und auch einige Quests zum Holen von Zutaten abgeschlossen.

 

Ich habe versucht, UD so weit wie möglich zu beheben, indem ich alle auf den neuesten Stand gebracht habe (einschließlich DD-NG auf AE) und jedes Gerät gepatcht habe, falls dies noch nicht geschehen war. Wie gesagt, die Hauptgeschichte hatte diese Probleme nicht und DCL auch nicht.

 

Bearbeiten: Es passiert jetzt tatsächlich auch größtenteils bei anderen Geräten, ich habe vielleicht mein UD kaputt gemacht.

 

I hadn't played Laura's mod with UD yet - so reading her post was very interesting for me.

-

At least I could still play the main quest on my SE version (1.5.97) ... although the "Circle of Lust" mod comes with a special patch for UD (the player's "trainer" can unlock this from DD devices)

Hello,

 

I have an issue with some quests of the mod. Sometime (for example with The lost Merchant), the NPC is stuck and and the quest can't advance, making me stuck because it's usually during a cinematic.

 

Spoiler

In The lost merchant case, Hontaf appear after I touch the chest, but stop at the prison gate without saying anything. The issue also appear when I do Seeking the Curse, in which case Laura say she will free me, but don't, and we are stuck, and not in the DD way.

 

First time I had the issue was with the v3.43 French version of the mod, but I tried it with 3.51 and the bug is still there. I tried some stuff like TC the NPC to move it and see if their script goes right on track or something. Couldn't try setstage due to not being knowledged enought to know the quest id without wiki (and seems like it was good for me since I read that it mess some stuff).

 

Can someone help me unstuck myself ? I really like the mod and would like to finish it.

 

EDIT: I could do some hacky fix by spamming quick save quick reload, which seems to make the script advance a little bit each time, but still with no dialog. Not really the best way to play, but hey it is what it is. Still looking for a real fix.

The most common reason for NPCs getting stuck in scenes is that you don't have the right version of Fuz Ro D'oh for your version of Skyrim, I think the old voice file mods also used to cause conflicts, though I believe the newer versions don't mess with the mod in the same way.

 

TDM can also cause problems with pathing.

[Lady Wintrish]

I'm on 3.42 version of this mod. Still on 16640 version of the game.

Safe to update to 3.51 mid game?

First of all thank you, I appreciate the help. But I tried multiple version of Fuz Ro D'Oh (V2.5 SE was what I had, but even the V2.2 and 2.3 which are supposed to be the versions me doesn't work, and SKSE was panicking). Do you know which one should work ? Maybe I should look into downgrading my skyrim (I don't even know if it's possible). The Laura's Bondage Shop mod page only speak about skyrim classic. 

 

Also, what is TDM ?

Do you have anything that alters the behaviour of the camera? I've read in this thread that this tends to mess things up.

(But I'm on LE where all these camera mods never work properly anyway...)

Yes, Laura develops on LE, and it's transferred to SE by some volunteer, last version by Kitty Kisara.

AFAIK no, I don't. (As in, unless one or more mods that I installed do that without saying they do, no)

I understand that, I was just wondering if their was somerwhere I can see the SE dependancies (i.e. Fuz Ro D'oh is 61 on LE, but 2.5 on SE, and seems to only work with my version of skyrim with v2.2 or 2.3)

I'd make sure that your other mods are also updated for your version of Skyrim, especially if they use a DLL file and don't have a DLL-free or an updated NG version.

True Directional Movement.

 

I'd also look at your papyrus log for the times when the scenes are freezing.

Hello. I get stuck on the first quest A Strange Rock. Everything goes fine until i have to go talk to Katarina to get freed from my restraints, she does speak to me and removes the restraints and gives me the keys and gold, but after that nothing happens, the quest doesnt progress. Talking to Laura and asking does she have anything for me, she just says "you already are doing something for me" eventhough the quest is stuck. 

 

Any help would be appreciated.
