Using vortex and have followed the list of mods from the list as best as possible any ideas what I have done wrong? Just my thoughts. AFF has options during install where you can determine if you want completely undressed or partial or none. And yes, as @rubber_duck mentioned. Check if you ran Bodyslides on your character.
VNLXV Posted October 26, 2021 Posted October 26, 2021 So the default cbbe physics is pretty... well sad. When compared to 3BBB or w/e else. But when I try to use 3BBB the ass and breasts stretch like crazy. Is there a good BBB mod that doesn't break the animations?

Whichever body you build last is the one which will be used in the game, as they each overwrite the same meshes.
bloodbus Posted October 27, 2021 Posted October 27, 2021 This guide was misleading at one specific and very important part. The specified version of looksmenu doesn't work at all. I switched to the newest version of looksmenu and everything started to work as intended. Super irritating

Some self troubleshooting for you to try "NO_F4$E" F4SE installed incorrectly or modding not enabled in Fallout4Custom.ini. Infinite Black Loading Screen This is very likely and in most cases, a pop up from some mod loading in faster than your game. Usually AAF's popup when installed, cheat terminal's popup and/or others. This happens because the game's pop ups (Not to confuse with the notifications on the top left of the screen) pause the game itself. Simply press Enter key a couple times to 'confirm' the popups and let the game fully load. Problems with using the "Home" key in AAF The game needs to be run at least once through steam (not your mod manager) so that proper files are created. AAF was never properly installed in the first place: When starting the game for the first time there will be a dialogue (pop up message after character creation) after all the mods have initialized, showing that AAF has properly started. For the "stuck at 30%" see below. Home is hidden behind a function key, usually labeled as [FN]. Another mod has registered the use of this key (A mod conflict). Non-standard / broken keyboard. UI mods interfering with AAF. AAF Force Start command Open console (usually the `/~ key found on the upper left of the keyboard). Type in: stopquest aaf_mainquest. Exit console. Wait 5 seconds. Open console again. Type: startquest aaf_mainquest. Exit console. Missing rufgt's Animations.esp Probably have AAF SEU XML Addon installed, which has Animation XMLs in it asking for that .ESP. Naked NPC Spawning when pressing HOME Uninstall Dongs of Fallout, it's incompatible with AAF. Replace with BodyTalk or Atomic Muscle. Skeleton Problems ZaZOut or CBBE Knee Fix installed along with ZaZ Extended Skeleton. Remove them and keep ZaZ Extended Skeleton only. [061] No available Actors found within the scan range Missing patch(es) for custom race, incorrectly installed AAF and its mods and/or no animations installed at all. Removing transition due to error Mod Order (MO2's left panel) / Vortex Rules issue. AAF ERROR | Animation ID XXX not found Missing animations. Animation Id not found often is also a file load order issue, often when there are patches for animations and one of them is different version than the other. AAF ERROR | AnimationGroup ID XXX not found Probably incompatible patch and/or fucked XML files. Actor Scaling Scaling can be enabled in AAF\AAF_settings.ini and in Atomic Lust installer. AAF UI fonts look like blocks A mod is likely modifying UI fonts and should be removed. One such example would be 'ModoFonto - Classic Fallout 4 and New Vegas Fonts'-. Installing F4SE Manually Buffout 4 Installation Requirements: Address Library for F4SE Plugins Buffout4 TBB (on the Buffout4's download page) xSE PluginPreloader Incompatibilities: Achievement enablers (Already built into Buffout4) Installation: Install the xSE PluginPreloader manually into Fallout 4's main folder where the Fallout4.exe is located. Change its loading mechanic by editing xSE PluginPreloader.xml (With Notepad++) and then changing the value of LoadMethod to OnThreadAttach. Install TBB manually into Fallout 4's main folder where the Fallout4.exe is located. Install Buffout4 and the Address Library via mod manager. Dependencies: Install/repair the MS VC++ ("2015, 2017 and 2019" - first downloads) runtimes 32bit[x86] AND 64bit[x64] in this order (first x86, then x64). Credits for proper Buffout 4 install instructions: The whole AAF Team who built these up and tweaked over time for them to be perfect.

computerguy13 Posted October 28, 2021 Posted October 28, 2021 For some reason all my male characters are now staying flaccid during sex. I use Bodytalk 3.15 hotfix, and it only started happening recently. Looking through my recent downloads I don't see anything that should have affected the AAF (New Faces for Raiders, FG 1.85, FG vanilla cloths conversion, etc.). Where would I start to figure out the source of this issue. I have over 200 mods and I really don't want to turn them off and back on one at a time to see where the problem lies (unless that really is the only way).

Are you using Buffout 4? If so, is the F4EE fixes patch enabled in its config? Well that's interesting... I can't remember the last version of LM I've used since I just recently started with Fallout 4 and mods (took a 10 month break from the game), and when I got back this guide recommended 1.6.18 so I didn't even bother downloading 1.6.20. Yes, I'm using Buffout 4 and the F4EE fixes patch is disabled in its config (I've disabled it since I run the older version of LM). Basically what happens is when starting a new game loading certain presets immediately crash the game (about 90% of all my presets). The other 10% load up normally and work. I've since found a fix to this - start the new save using the default preset and then after about 24 in-game hours (or better yet - restarting the game) changing the preset by using 'slm 14' command. This allows me to load up most of my presets, but still there are a few of them that crash the game. I don't know whether it's the preset issue - could be that I'm missing some of the required mods, but if that's the case the preset should load, but it would look different than it should. Any ideas? I don't know what to do now. I'm using MO2 so I might try LM 1.6.20 this weekend. If everything works as it should I'll stick to it. Else, I'll revert back to 1.6.18. As for the mods, I have quite a few of them. Almost every mod mentioned in this guide, in fact. So I'm not sure if changing the LM will break things.

I don't think there are any mods assuming specific LM versions (except the F4EE patch in Buffout 4 which claims to be specifically addressing issues in 1.6.20). Newer LM does fix the rather obnoxious crash with its remove clothing feature, at least. As for what might break, I wouldn't expect anything other than maybe the aforementioned penis morph problem. You'll want to turn on the F4EE patch in Buffout 4 though, in order to get its fixes. There was an F4EE patch Buffout 4 applied to LM 1.6.18 back when it was current, because (if memory serves) it LM 1.6.18 was causing crashes with Buffout 4's replacement memory manager. They seem to have dropped those fixes though when they were baked into later LM releases, on the assumption that all Buffout 4 users are running with latest LM (if using LM at all).

So you're suggesting that I enable the patch even though I'm running 1.6.18? I will install 1.6.20 and try it out a bit (when I update, do I 'Merge' or 'Replace' mod in MO2? I just recently started using it). Also, once I update to 1.6.20, I should enable the patch from Buffout 4, right? One more thing (that I just cannot understand)... The mentioned 'breaking morphs' - those affect all male NPCs? My character is female, and so are all the LM presets. If I built a male body in Bodyslide (BodyTalk 3), why is LM such a big deal? I mean, I get it that in LM you can choose body overlays and shape, but aren't the morphs like hard-coded to the game once the body has been built? Edited October 28, 2021 by rubber_duck

Not suggesting that at all, just saying that there were memory corruption issues known when combining LM 1.6.18 with Buffout 4 which I believe resulted in CTDs, and so an optional F4EE patch was added to Buffout 4 in order to address those. Those memory alignment fixes were integrated into a later LM release so Buffout 4 dropped the patch, but then when new bugs ("exploding heads" was how it was described) cropped up with LM 1.6.20, Buffout 4 added a new optional F4EE patch for that problem. What I'm saying is that your crashes could be related to the earlier problem in LM 1.6.18 when used in conjunction with Buffout 4, so upgrading to LM 1.6.20 might resolve them. 10 minutes ago, rubber_duck said: I will install 1.6.20 and try it out a bit (when I update, do I 'Merge' or 'Replace' mod in MO2?

I do uninstall earlier LM when I install a new version of it, so that's probably the same thing as MO2's replace function? 10 minutes ago, rubber_duck said: Also, once I update to 1.6.20, I should enable the patch from Buffout 4, right? Yes, if you're using LM 1.6.20 and latest Buffout 4 then you're going to want to enable the F4EE patch option in its config. 10 minutes ago, rubber_duck said: One more thing (that I just cannot understand)... The mentioned 'breaking morphs' - those affect all male NPCs? My character is female, and so are all the LM presets. If I built a male body in Bodyslide (BodyTalk 3), why is LM such a big deal? I mean, I get it that in LM you can choose body overlays and shape, but aren't the morphs like hard-coded to the game once the body has been built? I don't really understand your question, morphs are applied in-game when the body is deformed or reshaped, for example distending the abdomen in pregnancy mods, or a penis growing erect for sex and then going flaccid again after.

Those memory alignment fixes were integrated into a later LM release so Buffout 4 dropped the patch, but then when new bugs ("exploding heads" was how it was described) cropped up with LM 1.6.20, Buffout 4 added a new optional F4EE patch for that problem. What I'm saying is that your crashes could be related to the earlier problem in LM 1.6.18 when used in conjunction with Buffout 4, so upgrading to LM 1.6.20 might resolve them.

Right, sorry for misunderstanding. Anyways, I've updated to 1.6.20 and don't see any issues with it. The notorious morphs are working for me (just to clarify - people were reporting issues with said morphs because during animations the penis didn't go up or down, or was it something else?) Don't really understand the morphs lol I will test 1.6.20 a bit more later today, but so far I didn't notice anything game-breaking. About my question... Basically I don't understand the connection between body morphs (building body with morphs in Bodyslide) and LooksMenu - one is for body, the other is for the face and overlays. Why would LM cause problems with morphs? Might be difficult question, and I'm sorry for that, but I just can't seem to understand? Edited October 29, 2021 by rubber_duck missing 's'

All it bloody takes is one slightly out-of-order mod/plugin... Sorry to ask I'm sure I'm blind but I'm new to installing fallout 4 stuff from this website I've always and only used either NMM or Vortex until now but I'm trying my best to figure out how to install manual mods and this one I just can't figure out. Maybe I put folders in the wrong place or something? I know this post is old now and might not get a reply but I want to install this so badly lol but I have no idea what I'm doing and this stuff is all so confusing to me. I tried placing every folder where it said it should go but then when I look in game under the menu it says it's missing files and I don't understand what to do...if you can remember could you try and help me out on what things go where? Sorry.

If you use BodySlide to build morph files (those are the ones with the TRI extension) for bodies and clothing meshes, then LooksMenu will be able to adjust body sliders in-game (either through its extensions to the ShowLooksMenu interface, or on its own through BodyGen), and other mods can call LooksMenu's API to adjust body shape as well (this is how things like the pregnant belly or erect penis happen).

You haven't provided enough context for us to guess which mod you're talking about. Did you maybe quote the wrong old post? 1

I get it now, thanks! Well, after quite a few hours of testing, it seems like I'm going to keep LM 1.6.20. Didn't notice any issues with morphs (guess I'm lucky!). Also, after updating from 1.6.18, those few presets (which crashed the game after trying to load them) now work! Thank you again for your time to explain stuff to me. Have a good one, and take care!
Snaloe Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 So, I am having the problem that effects the Looksmenu (just dose not load when using new game, and load in as male character with no looksmenu options at all) This happen's due to having Mod Configuration Menu installed (MCM) when disabled it works fine. Is there a work around to have this installed and use looksmenu as well? Thank's Either way.

As far as I know, I've done nothing special in order to be able to use them. Also, per the bold note at the top of the manual, you're likely to get better and more timely answers if you ask in the help channels on the AAF Discord.
Snaloe Posted October 30, 2021 Posted October 30, 2021 (edited) I use NMM, so I don't think they would help. All I know is that I use the version of LooksMenu stated, and the latest MCM and when MCM is installed it disables Looksmenu (not in the manager its always active) but installed on new game I get no looks menu and it just loads in the bathroom as male pc and when its off I get full looks menu options on new game. If needed I will just use it with out it installed. (MCM that is). Edit: Found the problem to be "Slaver Camp, Brothel, Strip Club (Egret Tours Marina)" dunno why tried the lose files and bsa versions and both did the same thing. Edited October 30, 2021 by Snaloe
