I hate to ask, but does anyone have any idea how I may have broken quest progression? 

 

I return to the shop with the strange rock, and Katarina releases me and gives me keys and gold - and then nothing happens. I've noticed the dialogue that usually happens between Laura and K when first entering the shop didn't happen either .... soooo, it seems like I've managed to break that somehow? But I've tried every combination of changing mods around and load orders and uninstalling and reinstalling things and I just can't work it out ... 

 

[EDIT]  - okay, so it turns out it was the voice files I was using. On'ce I totally scrubbed the voice over mod from existance, started a new save and walked into LBS, they started their usual chatter upon entering for the first time. 

 

Shame... does anyone know if there's a version of the voice overs that won't break this for me? 

 

[EDIT 2]  I'm very sorry to keep making edits, but ... I just found out there's a more recent voice pack, so I'm going to try that one. 

 

Just wanted to get this in there before anyone spends any time trying to help me when I might have a solution. 

 

Okay so not only have I fixed the issue - but the newer voice files for L's BS are absolutely incredible. 

In case anyone googles in the future with my same issue - Here's how I fixed the problem, AND found amazing new voices:

I have an issue with invisible strong ball gag, i'm assuming it uses DD meshes, and i check DD ones, they don't have that problem. I saw a similar problems above, but didn't find the answer. Can you help me with that?

This is usually fixed by downloading the missing FaceGen files. But those are already part of download so something else is probably going on.

Do you have multiple character texture mods or something like that?

That's odd. Like you said, it uses the same assets so it should work.

Usually I'd check if I used the assets correctly but I would've gotten way more reports about this if I messed it up. Do you have mods that change DD's assets?

Only Devious Devices NG, but it's practically required for latest SE/AE patch, DD just wont work on a new version without it. I noticed that all gags in get devices quest are also invisible.

What's your character's race? I'm also on the latest DD NG and it looks like the armor addon that Laura's head gear only supports the human races. However, the gags from the framework have four additional armor addons that cover the other races.

Cheers for this, not really played much much with DD stuff since ages ago when for me it was just hassle. Really enjoyed the the play, fluid and entertaining, only at the end went a bit petetong, returning to kill Laura, but cant get out the shop the doors locked, rolled saves back but just not having it. Consoled the door open but had slight quirks subsequently like Jade wasnt close enough to talk to through the bars in the showdown. No real biggy. I loved how the go fetch quests didnt feel like go fetch and not getting my ears jizzed on by sweaty nords. Reminded me a bit of the Umbra flying sword mod. Defo potential for a bit of Evelyn (?) back story

 

Thanks a lot great stuff, really good x

You right! I played with a bossmer character, just now tested it quickly on the nord, and it works fine, there is no invisibility problem with a nord.

technically, yes. 2 of them. though if they were an issue, it would be effecting others too. also, from a little experimentation, if i disable and enable her, her face fixes for 1 second, then it becomes purple again. happens on all saves.

Hi, I was wondering if I could ask for advice. I think I have installed everything necessary, I have all the mods on, but the house is just not there. there is no house, no anything? What am i doing wrong?

 

If I am honest I have no reason to believe devious devices installed correctly at all... except for i followed the steps and the game loaded lol.

The mod is not installed or active, evidently.

 

And if you suspect DD is not installed properly either, this is as good as time as any to do the age-old "make sure everything is installed properly and in the correct path"!

Does this mod work with mod organizer? I downloaded this mod, then installed it via mod organizer, then ticked it to enable it.

I am not sure what I missed here

Almost every mod works with Mod Organizer. The only exceptions are ones that install outside of the Data folder, like ENBs.

You said that your DD isn't installed correctly. This mods needs DD as master, so it cannot work, regardless if you're using MO or Vortex.

[MickeyC22]

I really dont know why that isnt working either. TBH though I dont know how to test it. I just know that every mod regarding DD isnt working, but my game runs perfectly. I followed every step fairly closely too. And honestly no idea what I have done wrong

Which version of Devious Devices are you using? Is it the correct one for your game - LE or SE? Is it version 5.2? Do you have ALL it's dependancies installed, and all their dependancies installed? "Following the steps fairly closely" makes me nervous!

 

Spoiler

Small prediction: You installed Devious Devices NG without installing 5.2 as well. Thats the most common reason recently for DD not working.

Ooo i just had a massive breakthrough, so i was thinking maybe i just dont know how to check if the mod is working so i installed cursed loot and it stated that "devious devices intergration.esm should be active but is inactive, so it sounds like that is the mistake i have made. but the next question is, how do i do that? 

 

I am so sorry i am quite new to this clearly

 

[MickeyC22]

Never have I been so happy to see an error message. I have looked over old posts and can see there is a seperate intergration mod, but I cannot find one for special edition and for 5.2, where am I being dumb here?

 

Again I am so sorry lol

For SE, Devious Devices Integration is included as part of the single unified Devices Devices SE 5.2 mod.

 

DD SE 5.2 includes multiple ESM plugin files.

 

After installing DD SE 5.2 you need to enable all of its ESM plugin files.

Tell your mod manager to bloody use all 4 esps of the DD mod. It comes in one package since v5 because Kimy was fed up with checking so many threads. You might do well to keep your questions over in the DD SE thread. As I said before, this mod cannot run until you've got your DD installation straight!

[MickeyC22]

I am sorry, i have read the instructions, I am sorry if i am being annoying. But i think i figured it out

Hi, @Laura!  Voiceover we talked about https://www.loverslab.com/topic/107764-devious-devices-lauras-bondage-shop-24-dec-2024-v353-lese/page/341/#findComment-6941985 is almost done. There is a tiny issue though - I voiced some NPCs not in their assigned voice types. For example, Katarina's voice type is "Female Commander", but I voiced her dialogues in "Female Condescending". This means she will say vanilla greeting/combat dialogues in her default "Female Commander" voice, but modded topics - in "Female Condescending". I can make a plugin that will change her voice type to "Female Condescending", if you would permit it.

 

List of changed voices:

 

Katarina - from Female Commander to Female Condescending;

Holden - from Male Commoner Accented to Male Commander;

Hagtr - from Male Even Tone Accented to Male Drunk;

Jade - from Female Young Eager to Female Commoner;

Sloane - from Female Condescending to Female Unique Vex; I needed to change her voice because Katarina was already using "Female Condescending". Katarina and Sloane are present in the same scene, so we can't make them sound the same.

 

Also, I'm not really happy with how Daubeny and Karo turned out. They don't sound assertive enough.

 

Would you like to have a look at the result? Maybe you can give me some pointers. I can upload mp3's here or send you a message, which ever you prefer.

 

P.S. My apologies for taking so long, it should have been done within a month or so.

Hey, I'm currently having an issue while trying to proceed along the "Ghosts of the Past" quest.

I've followed along to "Find Sirgen in Falkreath". But when I get into Falkreath and try to enter the barracks/jail, the game will just CTD. Just wondering if there's a way I can bypass going into the jail without causing any major hiccups.

Things I've tried so far:
- Using the console to complete the quest, but going back to Laura just tells me I'm already helping her (was also getting a console error from Unforgiving Devices, saying it was looking for a catsuit and catsuit socks, I tried consoling those into my inventory and equipping, but it didn't change anything).
- Checking in SSE Edit, which found an audio segment that was changed by USSEP, so I changed it to what should be the correct value in the mod, but that didn't fix it.
- Editing quest stages (but it doesn't seem to reflect in the quest log, but is changed using SQS in the console, so no idea, I didn't want to break it too hard).

- Going back to a MUCH earlier save before I even went into Laura's shop, same issue.
- Going back to that same earlier save with the mod disabled, same issue.

I've got a couple of crash logs, and both seem to crash at the same moment, but I've no real idea how to read it, so maybe someone can help decipher.

 

Otherwise, if there's any easy way I can bypass this segment, it would be much appreciated.

 

 

*EDIT: Right after this I tried just getting arrested and that seems to have worked.
