So now that we have gotten our hands on "Dick", what do people think? Was this the "Dick" we were craving? Are there any parts of "Dick" that we can take and make our own here on Loverslab? I personally really love "Dick" and hope the modding community starts using their imaginations when it comes to new and exciting mods... for "Dic".

 

Actually, it's a rare instance when the name of the patch befits the quality. The fanboys were craving for this patch with closed eyes and open mouths, expecting that Paradox would put candy there. Not this time, fellas. This time the fanboys got treated to a very different flavour. They did figure out that something was wrong only after that patch was brutally thrusted right in. They still pretended to enjoy it. Have you been on the Paradox forums? They have a button "Respectfully disagree". Because if you disagree without the "respectfully" part, someone might have a heart attack.

 

The gaming community has been asking Paradox to fix the growing lag that was problematic starting in mid-game. Paradox should have fixed it by optimising the game engine via use of more CPU cores. But that would require a lot of time and money to completly rebuild the engine, which is irrational for a game that has exhausted most of its resource. Have you noticed that the DLC did not even get as much coverage on the main Steam page like the previous DLCs? Instead, they broke the population growth. No population growth, no extra lag. Why is the empire not growing? Just because, don't ask questions, hand over the money.

 

The second thing is the negligence towards the quality of the DLC. They didn't even bother to make decent new ship designs and structures, reusing the old assets.

 

All in all, it could mean that they will start working on Stellaris 2 in the near future, hopefully using a much better and optimised engine.

So i was wondering if you were gonna make any stock races with the mods traits to replace the vanilla stock? I'm currently working on custom races to force spawn, but im pretty ;azy at it lol.

- Become the crisis: Would it be possible to reuse this UI for something non-genocidal? Accruing points for making hybrids or having a diverse number of species in your empire. Make the lewder aspects of the mods into a kind of minigame where you can gain benefits at different tiers for doing lewd things in the game. Final tier would not be galactic annihilation obviously but I could see you winning by breeding out all other species until only you remain?

 

Yes, that will be nice. Good example; enforce on whole Galaxy your "levd" practices, custom or rituals.

 

It also could be a Succubus thing, when other races becomes your "slaves", annihilation is not the only goal in wining, especially when PDX introduced Necroids;).

 

 

Edit: Btw, Im looking for "Elves of Stellaris Portraits LV Patch", and can't find it on download list. Is there build on compatibility, or its no longer supported/developed ?

Hey this is a cool idea, I've always wanted to see sex/romance in Stellaris whether organic or not and also with player specific stuff, and it's hard for me to imagine most societies of the far future not having sex work. Also, if you actually figured out how to get around the binary gender system for organic non-fungoid/plantoid pops, I'd be impressed, I tried to look at building a mod that has gender neutrality as the base and then randomly assigns pronouns to leaders but couldn't get it to work, and that doesn't do everything I want to do, which includes having appearance options not distinguished by base anatomy, but I'm a little intimidated by the possibility of all the stuff you have not being optional*, including graphic content (erotica suffices for me, that's not to say that I don't like to look at stuff, but I'm picky). Does your mod have a config or optional install (I didn't see instructions for that so I presume that wasn't the intention)? If not I might try editing it myself for personal use, but I'd probably have to learn exactly how your mod works to do it without breaking it. Thanks so much for reading this, and hope all is well what with the pandemic and all

*Nothing against the other stuff you have in your mod, it's just not for me, I'm very picky, i.e. I want sex/romance/ace queer/trans/nonbinary content that feels realistic and can be erotic and kinky but isn't a fantastic/comedic exaggeration, and again, I don't expect you to make that, this is a mod, it's just something I wish for from games generally, it disappoints me that deeply queer grand strategy game or rpgs centered around off the binary/trans aliens aren't really a thing. That's not something you or I can easily change if we wanted to and I'm not expecting that, just curious if your mod is easily customizable ❤️

Since 3.0, when playing as a hivemind, you can build a brothel for some reason, and your drones can be escorts, but apparently not whores. The position is there, but it just can't be filled. Bug or feature? Likely a bug, because in 2.8 drones could be whores, but still...

[Abominus]

I think there should be another jobs for "drones", since they are not workers but maybe "simple drones"?

No, it's definitely not that. Sex Cows, both normal and exotic, are Worker strata, and those jobs do get filled, like the screen shows. It has to be something about the job itself or something working with it, but I wasn't able to pinpoint the problem.

It's just a misunderstanding, sorry if I took the wrong words (german here ;)), it was just some general comment, that "I" would like to see those jobs in the same manner as the other drones. But, IIRC, the normal strata for enslaved non-drones is livestock, right? They are also worker strata, even when you play with drones?

[Tyrgalon]

I think milk cows consumer goods production should maybe be nerfed a bit.
Also the goverrnor trait that gives 10% slave production AND 25% milk cow production is pretty insane, the milk cow % should maybe be nerfed to like 15% or something.

You can do that.

Hello everyone !

I have a little problem here and I need some help, please.
So actually, the mod works since I can see the origins, the traits of my characters, dairy and sex buildings and the lewd advisor. But I don't have any LV event who pop up, except the sexbot event. I used Better Cheats to activate the "Anomaly Generation" (pop up event), but I still only see the vanilla events on every planets (and the sexbot event). I can trigger the LV events only with the console.
I tried to modify the options of the mod from the ingame menu, tried to reinstall, checked my mod order, nothing change.
It happened to me before the last DLC update. So it's not because of that.
Did I mess something with the installation ?

Thank you !

Divine Coupling civic doesn't seems to works, i'm not getting any concubine job from temples or there is something im missing?

[Courier70]

Not sure if this has been answered or not, but I can't seem to get Parallel Evolution, Sadomasochistic Evolution, or Symbiotic Evolution to work. My empire spawns with only the primary species. Has anyone else encountered this issue and found a fix?

No estoy seguro de si esto ha sido respondido o no, pero parece que no puedo hacer que la Evolución Paralela, la Evolución Sadomasoquista o la Evolución Simbiótica funcionen. Mi imperio se genera solo con las especies primarias. ¿Alguien más ha encontrado este problema y ha encontrado una solución?

I had the same problem recently, another of your mods must be overwriting the file "start_of_game_effects"
go to the folder "lusful void"> "common"> "scripted_effects"
rename "lv_start_of_game_effects" to "zzzz_lv_start_of_game_effects"
that worked for me

PD1: I speak Spanish, not English, this is traditional with google translator
PD2: this is the first time I have written in a forum

can anyone tell me how to make perfect hybrids

You kinda can't.

 

Well, there is a way to get a Perfect Hybrid in-game, but you can't make it happen. If you leave the Bio Hybrids system active, every now and then any of your planets with more than one species on it will create a new species. This is random, doesn't happen that often, and the new species usually sucks. But every time one new hybrid is made, it has a one-percent chance of being a Psionic Perfect Hybrid. So it's entirely possible to go an entire game with Bio Hybrids turned on and not see one Perfect Hybrid turn up.

 

The alternate method is to open /Lustful Void/common/traits/lv_species_traits.txt in a text editor, do a search for trait_lv_perfect_hybrid (it's down at line 2023), and change the 'initial = no' into 'initial = yes'. Then you can create a Perfect Hybrid in the initial empire creation system. You could also change 'modification = no' to 'modification = yes' if you prefer to pick it up later in a run, but that opens it up for the AI to use, not recommended.

Thanks very much for keeping this great mod updated, can't wait to start a new playthrough!

[Neri]

PSA:

If you get a crash on the new 3.0.3 non beta patch it is not because of LV!

It's the dynamic overhaul that crashes the game. Either wait till they update it or use the beta addon in your mod lineup.

I thought the issues with Pops not becoming Sex Priests was fixed, since the DICK update (which can't have been named coincidently) its back to not working again. . . . what's up with that?

I had the same problem. I got it to work by removing the Forgotten Queens mod, even though the patch notes say that the mods should be compatible. I've no idea why it happens.

Clear. And then I began to think that something is wrong with the mod itself. Well ... OK. I can do without Forgotten Queens for now.

I had an idea for a civic. It was inspired by a leader trait called 'Sex Trophy Collector' in the All You Need Is Loving mod (which sadly hasn't been updated since 2.8.1).

 

Civic: Harem Traditions

Required Ethics: Xenophile, Militarist and/or Authoritarian

Required Authority: Imperial (and maybe Dictatorial?)

Banned Ethics: Pacifist, Xenophobe and Egalitarian

 

Your Ruler automatically gains a unique trait upon becoming Ruler called 'Harem Collector.' This trait's bonuses starts off kinda of meh tier, but is replaced with better versions of it the more their harem grows.

 

Their harem grows when the following happens:

• You have an owned leader with some variation of the Lustful Body trait (or anything similar).
• One of your fleets defeats another fleet with an Admiral with some kind of sexy trait.
• You conquer a planet with a species and/or governor with some kind of sexy trait.
• You win a war against another country whose leader has some kind of sexy trait.
• Your ruler gains the Sexbot Companion trait.

 

Naturally, these should be accompanied by events telling you it happened. Every so often, another random flavor event can trigger giving a random bonus (or malus), based on things going on with the harem.

Love this mod, had played quite a few versions of it now over the last year or so. Seeing how many bugs and various issues have been addressed and fixed since the start, it almost feels like i am being ungrateful for bringing this up, but i noticed something funny that was probably unintentional?

 

I started a civilization with parallel evolution, and made both of them female only. And right at the start, i got the female synergy event, with one breeder job added.

 

Nice to see my cat- and puppygirls getting along, but i have the sneaking suspicion that they would still need actual males for this to work as intended.

[Henoninheaven]

So I've been having this issue where my species profile photo appears over all the Lustful Void events. I've tried clean install, deleting the cache, reinstalling lustful void, the only thing I've noticed is rolling back to a much earlier save but replaying an in game decade is a lot.

I'd settle for a booleg solution where I just make my pop invisible. But I really would love some help.
