Hello,  is there something wrong? 😪

On the bottom part I think "dgwhorebody -  black rose.esp" has to be all lowercase. I don't remember exactly why, but I think it was just something with the PapyrusUtil stuff I'm using to read the file where it wouldn't read it correctly if not all lowercase.

It works for you, it works for me, but that doesn't mean it works for everyone. It's also possible they've done something wrong or simply complained that you have to install something extra to make it work. #SkyrimGetUpdate

In any case, even if you can do something to make it work it's best for me not to have a version of the CK that will use the extended form ID range because if it started using it that could introduce the possibility that the form IDs between the SE and LE versions wouldn't match unless I first applied the the fixes to the SE version before release.

As far as I remember, this applies to ESL files ( Means light plugin), but I won't cut my head off for that.

 

Nevertheless, as you don't need the latest version of CK i.e. AE to improve the mod in terms of features, I don't see any reason to change CK from the SE version to AE.

 

I personally I have CK 1.5.73

Thank you, its working now.

First check "sqv tapqvanikseth04" and see if the quest is running. If it's not try "startquest tapqvanikseth04" and see if it starts. If not we'll have to go from there on why.

It says enabled and Running. Quest stage is 100. But if I go to his workshop it gives me no options other than regular dialogue.

In that case, the courier should come to you and deliver you a letter. I assume you've traveled around a little bit and gone to various cities to give the courier a chance to get to you?

 

If you have, and he's still not coming for some reason, then you may have something interfering with the courier. You should be able to advance the quest with the console, though.

Yes I have traveled around and its been 17 in game days now with no courier, so ya something must be interfering with him. The set stage command worked for me so thank you very much. 

 

I will say that when I checked the quest status, it reported a line that said dayhaspassed_var=false so maybe it's something interfering with the reading of  time passed.

That's not what DayHasPassed tracks

Can I somehow remove the harassment from all the ragged people I meet? And I would like to remove it completely outside the walls of the Gardens or the tavern. To be honest, it knocks me out of the immersion in another Skyrim where you are a hero and all that. Perhaps in the future you will consider linking the dialogue with harassment to some object, for example a necklace or ring, so that these dialogues appear only when this object is equipped.

I'm honestly not sure what you're talking about. TAP doesn't have harassment dialogue. Only random comments I've added for people to say are comments when you're a succubus, in the same style as things like "don't like those eyes you've got" when you're a vampire.

During the Sybil homecoming quest when i take the sybil back up to broken tower redoubt there is no briarheart among the forsworn there, only women and one hagraven. I get a notification that the sex scene failed and they all become hostile. I can kill them all but there is no dialogue afterwards and the NPCs just sorta stand around. Is there a specific npc i can summon or some way i can force advance the quest?

Translation difficulties). I mean that my heroine pesters everyone. She always has the dialogue "Do you want me?" This is not what I would like to see when going through the epic heroic quests of the great hero. If only it could be somehow limited to wearing certain items. For example, if you want to work, put on some kind of amulet.

You don't have any mods that alter that location do you? The briar heart is a respawning boss actor in vanilla. I don't remember his ID right off to tell you what you might need to check with console commands. I'll try to get some info for you when I'm back at my PC.

I'll consider it, though I'm not much for that kind of thing myself. In the meantime you can turn off freelance solicitation in the MCM when you don't want it.

Oh. Is she there right now? Why didn't I notice her?

Yeah that option has been there a while.

There used to be a mod for a player's house near Whiterun, which also served as a bathhouse and a brothel). I liked it so much, but it's nowhere to be found now. People from all over Skyrim would come there and have fun with the girls. These were mostly vanilla NPCs. Although the House itself wasn't exactly lore-y (it was inherited from the previous Dragonborn), the vanilla NPCs' visits added realism to it. I didn't notice any bugs, people were having fun, bathing, and then going about their business. I have a suggestion to implement something similar in the Gardens of Dibela.

It was called "Bathing beauties and beefcakes." It was taken down for unknown reasons years ago from the Nexus. It was a cool mod, not sure what happened to it.

So it's been a while since I've been here, just wasn't interested in Skyrim for a while. Any news as to when the next update will be?

Nothing specific. I'm aware that it's been much too long since the last update so I do want to get one out but I don't know for sure when it will be.

It would be possible to see what has changed there. But the baths are in the same cell with the Gardens, that's just bad luck.

I'm not usually too interested in pulling vanilla NPCs in on things like that. It's too easy for it to feel out of place.

Cool. No worries. I would rather it be done well than rushed. Hope you're making good progress and enjoying the process. Best of luck!

For the quest Political Favor, how is the scene with Gisli supposed to work? After delivering the letter to Erikur, waiting a day then talking to him, I waited in Gisli's room until after 10pm, but all she does is call me out for trespassing.
