What I really really want is a sex related crisis path.

Cosmogenesis-style crisis where the goal is to build the Ultimate Tentacle Monster and feed all the pops in the galaxy into it to be fucked into an Eldar-esque singularity and create Slaanesh.

That would be an option, I personally am not into tentacles though.

But I also don't have a comprehensive idea myself yet.

Just reporting this as of 5/9/2025 Update 4.0 this mod no longer functions as expected and will crash the game. Hopefully the creator will get to a patch or fix soon as at the moment it seems as there will be no way to work around unless you downgrade to a lower version of the game which i do not know how to do.

If you have the game on steam, right click on it and go to properties. There is a betas tab, click on 'none' and and list of versions back to 2.1.3 will appear. Simply select the one you want and steam will automatically change to that version.

I'm probably doing it wrong, but doesn't appear to work on 4.0.3

Not that I'm complaining, I'm not! Just informing. I suspect they're going to be doing a LOT of patching in the coming days anyways. 

 

EDIT: Could just be 4.0.3, which seems to crash more or less whenever it feels like it. 

4.0x changed more than I was expecting. I fixed what I can find, but I'm still getting crashes myself. Will investigate more on Monday

Not gonna lie, 4.0 seems to have broken just about everything under the sun. I'm getting crashes- not repeatable, but still- on just base game and DLC content, no mods at all. So at this point? Any modder that can get anything to work with this broken mess is superhuman in my eyes. This is as bad as 2.2. Maybe worse. 

[AgrioTheMoo]

If I can ask for help, I'd like to see if anyone can find where the crash is happening. As far as I can tell, this should have worked and it doesn't.

I'll keep poking at districts/zones and see if I messed something up.

What?! Loaded after Lustful Void?

[zurtrin69]

It crashed for me at least, patch loaded after LV and with no other mods enabled.

[Master Don]

witch version?

well that might fix the mod but id rather just have a flat out fix that works for current versions so i can keep all of the current updated stuff. Im just going to wait for the update that most likely won't be happening since this hasn't been updated since 2024. It's no big loss in reality but just something to keep in mind

Sorry, if it's a stupid question, but I just started playing LV for the first time and chose the "tentacle symbiosis" origin. That gave me a tentacle world, but when playing, all planets around my starting system are desert ones, with only 25% habitability. Is this intended, or am I just unlucky?

Yes and yes. You got Tentacle World preference, that is the major drawback of starting with an OP world.

I am not certain what level of habitability this preferance has for other worlds but I suspect they are just as bad for continental worlds.

Except for an error involving some "advisor_notification_ships_upgraded_03" (that after 2 hours of troubleshooting found out involved the planet_classes file (which I'll look into tomorrow), but other than that it doesn't CTD for me either on start up, but have yet to actually play with it.. one day maybe..

A few non-CTD issues I've found while trying to patch up LV for 4.x myself that might be worth you adding into your own patch is:
lv_policies.txt: line 355 and 338: "any_owned_pop" to be changed to "any_owned_pop_group"
lv_ascension_perks.txt: line 24: change to any_owned_pop_group
scripted_triggers.txt: a few "pop_has_trait" to replace as "pop_group_has_trait" (the "is_pop_category" seem okay by considering it being used in base files)

That seems to be most of the common folder stuff sorted, so should main be changing loads of pop_ to pop_group_ in the event files

Right, I *do* need to clean that up.

Thank you soooo much for the suggestions tho! Will do~

Honestly, it's kinda funny (and weird) that you can pick "LV Tentacle" as a race, yet when you find tentacle lifeforms on a planet, they are treated like it's something completely different.

So what version of the game does this currently work with? I've never used Stellaris mods before, and with this extracted into the mod folder I'm not seeing anything popping up during starting a new game but also nothing is crashing, so I'm not sure if the mod is in the right folder or if Stellaris is just ignoring it.

You have to activate mods in the launcher, by editing the mod playlist and adding the new mod to it.

 

But pretty sure this mod is not updated and working on the current version, yet.

To install it correctly you should have both a Lustful Void folder and a Lustful Void.mod file inside the Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod folder. Then in the Stellaris Launcher go to the Playsets tab and click the "Add More Mods" button in the top right and you should see Lustful Void there to enable.

The mod doesn't work for the current version of the game yet though, you'll need to rollback to 3.14 or it'll just crash on startup.

Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I've at least figured out how to get this to work when/if it does update. It's rough out here for scifi horny mods at the moment, Rapesector hasn't been updated in a while either and whenever I try to get mods working for RimJobWorld I get all kinds of conflicts and errors.

It wasn't an official announcement, but dev said she thinks she'll have the patch out in the next few days, and if nonthing else the 4.x update of this mod is being actively worked on

Bummed, can't get this mod to work with the latest Lustful Void 0.7.7 (3.12+).7z, crashes when I try to start.

If you're running the latest version of Stellaris, the update was a major one. It'll take some time for Lustful Void to update to work with version 4.x
