Is there a guide to using ZAZ mods?

[Bigbosshog]

I'm using ZaZ 8.0+ from here:

 

But I'm confused as how to place and use furniture and even how to get animations to work. I have SLAL but none of the ZAZ animation stuff shows up there. If anyone could point me to a guide that'd be great!

For the player, (vs mod authors, who may have other tools at their disposal...idk)  placing or moving furniture (or other clutter) is usually done using something like Jaxonz Positioner SSE, although there's another one that many recommend whose name I can't recall.

Visit nexus...

 

As for using ZAZ stuff? Idk.... I have it installed but the only time it shows up is when some scene requires the gear, and it vanishes when the scene ends,

Oh, I know how to move furniture around using jaxonz positioner. But I don't know how to actually get them into the world.

Your best source of information is always the support thread for the mod in question. As this is a port from a LE mod you might get better results in the original thread.

 

For placing furniture in the game the only way I know is using console commands, unless the mod has a built-in system to craft/place furniture. Not sure if that's the case for 8+ as I'm an old dog and only use 7.0.

Basically you type:

help "name of the furniture item" to get the ID, then:

player.placeatme 0000000 (where the 0s are the ID you got previously).

 

That puts the furniture near your character, then you can move it with Jaxonz positioner.

 

The ZAZ animations won't appear in SLAL because ZAZ has its own MCM (well, at least ZAZ 6-7, but I guess 8+ has the same MCM too). In the Zaz MCM you can go to the Sexlab tab and register the animations.
