devious devices Devious Lore

[iceta]

I was retarded and installed both patches, i'm pretty sure that since that i've lost the ability to remove any device (i'm sure i cannot remove the device what i'm not sure is about when it started). i've tried to make  clean save and reinstall everything "devious" and i still cannot remove them through any means.

 

Has this happened before? Does anyone know of  a way to fix.

 

i've attached a copy of the papyrus log for if it helps

 

thank you in advance

I went to all the inns, but I could not find any Lore-Mongers, and could hear any rumors from the innkeeper. Why is that?

They don't always appear, play normally and when you enter an inn the innkeeper might know something

Hey @Code Serpent I had a request. I'm actually using the SE conversion of your mod by @nomkaz and was originally thinking of asking there, but since they said to ask here directly for any questions I guess I'll come here to do just that.

 

Anyway, I have always loved your mod because of the little mini game about escaping, and all the other stuff is just icing on the cake. But I did have a quick request, if you dont mind. It concerns the Allies options in the MCM. Well, two requests, I suppose.

 

The 1st thing is, could you add an option to add/remove the "Can you help me with something, friend?" options in the dialogue? Something similar to how Devious Device Helpers does. I use them too, but for different reasons, so I disable that in their MCM. The reasoning is right now I'm using a different mod, Devious Followers, as the main way I'm trying to escape since it's a bit more limited. I love a lot of the stuff Lore provides, I just wish that one option could be easily disabled somehow, at least temporarily. Currently the best I can do is try my best not to take advantage of it since it's easier, but I really would prefer if I could hide it from the menu to avoid the temptation.

 

The second thing, is there a way you could add an option for changing the speed or something for dominant followers? Or, maybe an option to just treat them as dominant? Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I've asked them to lock things on me and unlock things before but never really noticed them becoming more dominant, and they've never denied helping me so maybe I'm just not doing it nearly enough. But I figure if there was a way I could quickly "level up" their dominant spirit, or just flick a switch, maybe then I could use it in conjunction with, instead of as a replacement, for getting unlocked. That way there's maybe a chance I can get someone's help for free, and if not, then I can pay to get the main follower's help without having to go to the blacksmith and potentially pay more~

 

I hope that made sense~ tldr, an MCM option to remove the "help me" dialogue and/or a way to either change the speed or force a follower to become more or less dominant?

 

Since I see you're still updating it, I was hoping maybe you would include something like that in your next version? I'm not sure how hard any of that would be to do, but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Please and thankyou~ ❤️

Try opening and closing the console. No comands, just open and close.

I don't know why, maybe it's my load order or the number of mods I have, but this seems to get things going. Sometimes I have to do it again for the next dialog box to appear.

FWIW, I'm on SE and Vortex is my mod manager.

That should be easy to add.

Honestly, I didn't think anyone was using that portion of the mod. It's pretty barebones. Adding a slider and an "instant dom" option should be easy enough.

I think that what @unmog is looking for already exists in your mod. There are mcm settings that define the chance that a follower will help you out of your restraints, for each of the 3 dom levels. Just set them all to the chance that you like and you have the desired behaviour? Or am i missing something?

There are chance sliders, but no way to make your follower that level so its hard to test or see what level they are at, no way to set their level, and no way to revert their level. Theres also no way to disable the dialogue in the menu.

Please read through the description fully. The loremongers will only start appearing in towns and cities after you've found and opened one their associated items, and the appear after asking the innkeepers about odd people. They will then open up their shops after you talk to them for the first time.

I've talked to the multiple times and completed their quests too, how do I get them to open their shops?

I kinda liked this feature and was really surprised when it happend the first time. It was great because it adds a bit of risk to the "can you help me with something friend." mechanic.

 

It would be great if there would be more to it. Im not talking about a full dom but so that you have to choose more Carefully from who and how often you get help.

Maybe something like "You are bound again? This time I won't help you because it pointless. You will get yourself tied up in 5 Minutes again"

How do I get Hjorni's favor?  I gave her 5 Urns and nothing.

 

Do I have to wait a certain amount of time after giving the 1st urn?

I went around every inn in Skyrim three to four times. It would have taken a few months in the game. Nevertheless, I still haven't heard any rumors. Is this normal?

Sounds like you’re using the vanilla rumours dialogue option of the innkeepers. Maybe try the ‘have you seen any strange people’ option, that is added by this mod?

Yes, I'm sure I'm using the mode translated by myself. And I just heard the first rumor. At this pace, it will take two to three years to make all NPCs.

[Pornucopia]

Not sure what happened, but I did the quest for Laekette and opened one of the packages afterwards. I got tied up, so I went to find the location of her base, but it was locked. After some finagling I managed to figure out where she was (inside the tower with the door still locked), and upon talking to her she only sold stuff, and did not pay any mind to the plethora of restraints I was stuck in. What did I do wrong?

[xyzxyz]

Is it random which lore monger you meet? I always start the quest in whiterun and never met Hjorni in a dozen jobs.

And please make the lore mongers immortal. I sometimes failed a quest while they were wandering around in skyrim.

[hydra-2000]

I faced a new problem. After meeting about three to four people, no matter how many rumors I ask at the inn, only three to four lore moger come out and no new people appear.

[Xuvish]

How do I get Hjorni's favor to get the devious training quest?

I have given her urns after completing her quest for the 1st time, but still can't seem to get the quest.

[verel]

@Code Serpent I had a problem with Hjorni never opening her store, even if you did her quest once.  I looked it up in tes5edit and found that the ai package for the store only runs if the queststage for _dl_statusscholar is equal to 5.  Mine was at stage 20 at that time, so she never unlocks the door.

[xyzxyz]

Is Hjornis nude body supposed to be twice the size of normal NPCs?

[xyzxyz]

I bought a set of restraints and equiped it and talked about the practical use of them but no quest showed up.

[hydra-2000]

It's been more than two weeks since I used this mode. But I only met three of the five lore mongers. Even if I ask about rumors at the inn, only three mongers I've already met come out repeatedly, but the other two didn't. There seems to be a need to change the way we meet lore mongers.

[Pornucopia]

Seems like this mod allows me to talk to guards and they'll have me walk with them to the guardhouse to get unlocked. Problem is, the game considers Aela to be a guard, and the "struggle in your restraints" dialogue overwrites everything else. I can't talk to her without her pretending to be a guard and unlocking all my stuff for free!

There doesn't even seem to be an option to disable this feature. I'm just stuck with it.
