Random Overlay Framework

[chaussure69]

hello, i just turn bruise/whipe/spank mark to 0 (i dont like it) but the npc and settler still have the mark on them. what can i do for removing it ?

 

[Invictusblade]

so I had to make a new script (still haven't compiled it yet) to allow both limbs to work. *I would have a better look at it tomorrow, I just had an idea to reduce the work I need to do.

This is not the first time you say that)) About gettin' back. Don't dissapear for too long, anyway. 

  And probably I have to  work on overlays for male bodies. 

I still like the game but something is holding me back from playing the game properly.

 

other examples,

I have had Cyberpunk 2077 installed on my computer since it was released and I still haven't finished it. *but I am actually playing it nowadays

I have Witcher 3 installed and haven't really played it since I finished it back in 2015 (or whenever it was released) *I installed it for the new computer.

I have barely played Baldur's Gate 3 (still installed)

 

here is the weirdest one, I had played a heap of Shadow of Mordor, and gotten somewhere to the end and left it for a year until I played it for a half a hour to finish it. (it is still painful)

so new NPCs or Old NPC's?

 

because changing the options will only work on newly spawned NPCs

 

I will have a look at making some treatments for certain types of overlays. (I did make some for the early tattoos (skin grafts))

I thought I fixed this issue,

when I get around to playing/ testing Fallout 4 again (I haven't played it lately) I will test the internal distribution methods because it is possible for them to pick them up.

but like I said, I thought I fixed it.

 

I will try to get around to modding F4 again in the near future. (because I still need to do the both limbs option)

Looks like I've got the issue sorted.  First I redownloaded the mod, then before installing, went into Distribution\SPID Spell - Enable\INVB_OverlayFramework_DISTR.ini, and changed the Spell section to Spell = 0x52B7~INVB_OverlayFramework.esp|NONE|0xEAFB6,0x13746,-0x72E2~AAF.esm, which was mentioned in page 18 of the comments on here by VaultBait as a possible fix.  Then I installed the mod, making sure to select SPID spell as the distribution method, and now it's working perfectly, overlays are being applied to other characters and not mine.

[katrina.balanchuk]

I still struggle with getting them properly applied.

Or maybe it is just leftovers from before I adjusted the sliders and the NPCs had already been spawned.

 

In any event a lot of my (all male via a mod) raiders have spanking stripes on them despite my settings to the contrary.

I went through all the factions and assigned the overlay group B only to females (with appropiate marks set)  and for the makles I sent eitehr as zero or faction tatoo and they are all group A.

 

But I still get raider males with the stripes. (I dont know about others since I have not "interacted with" say DC security.)

the old npc. i want to refresh them but i don t know how.

for the upcoming version, I will be looking into the removal of certain overlays.

 

more than likely, it will use the internal distribution to deliver a remover. (I have no idea if it is going to work)

 

 

 

 

update->

about the upcoming version,

from the looks of it, I will be removing the Hands and Feet Option from the mod and merging them into Arms and Legs. (there has been an increase of both areas occurring (such as the entire Left Leg and foot being covered by a tattoo)

 

and it will take a while longer.

 

another update->

so I added a faded option (btw it won't actually fade away but disappear after a while(between 1 to 10 days)) -> doesn't work at the moment

as well as adding 2 commands to remove damage from NPCs (and groups) -> does work

update-> so I am going to have a think about it.

 

question for everyone, do you want to do the same for makeup?

 

another new update->

I decided to do something different, I am making aid objects for you to use on yourself or other NPCs.

1. Razor (to shave pubic hair and body hair(will be trickier because the Male Bodies mod added muscles) *so I might avoid body hair at the moment.

1b. but the big thing is that pubic hair should return after a few days.

2. healing balm - heals skin damage

 

still WIP, so it might completely fail. (also don't expect logic to work with these objects)

Edited February 10, 2025 by Invictusblade

[Invictusblade]

update->

 

so I worked out a few different things,

1. so I added a method to remove damage overlays after using the overlay manager. (so it should be completely automatic)

1a. Makeup lasts between half a day to 5 days

1b. Acne and Spanked marks lasts between half a day to 5 days

1c. Bruises and Whipped marks lasts between a day to 10 days

 

2. you can also use aid objects to remove all of the above

2a. however there is an aid object to add new makeup effects after using the cleaner

 

3. you can shave off Pubic Hair and after a day to 10 days, you get a bushy pubic hair

3a. then you can use a style kit to shape it

 

4. there is also a tattoo cleaner also an unique tattoo cleaner.

 

5. with all of the above except 1, there is a 10% chance of the aid object being destroyed (otherwise it will return to you) also you can use them on targeted NPCs

 

so there will be some minor fixes to do

[Jeffey67]

Wow! ROF is gettin' better and better👍

 I thought about acne and pubic before, but didn't realized, it's feasible. You right, acne can't last forever.

your comment has made me think that I should make more than them(overlays) reoccurring as well

 

Acne reoccurs (poor hygiene)

Whipped reoccurring could be a sign of Self-flagellation so for example Children of Atom.

Bruises could also reoccur (it is a harsh wasteland)

Spanked marks (this one is problematic so I am not sure about this one) *unless you can justified it by calling them hot flushes or reactions to bah

 

 

fortunately this should be pretty easy to do at the moment.

 

update-> while it is easy, it is getting out of hand at the moment so I will need to find a way.

for example, there are 6 presets, for the 4 above = 24 separated aid objects. (so there is too many at the moment) *too many options.

Really nice! Moreover, I'd add, that this should work for certain factions, cos the lifestyle of high society members (upper stand, or whatever) is quite hothouse. And in terms of hygiene, in theory, everything is fine with them. And they don't swing hammers on their fingers too often)

 Btw, I found out how to make one set of overlays for body and hands. So I gotta remake skin conditions for eliminate ugly border lines on wrists.

[Invictusblade]

[Madscout]

I really have enjoyed this mod, following it through many updates. I am having the Doppel ganger tat issue. Not such an eyesore, but can break the flow of what other tats(slave tat overlays/tats after rape) may be there. I have been reading and will try the methods mentioned, like group distribution to Garden of Eden, and to pick the SPID Distribution.

 

Is this the best approach or is there another edit I need to perform? I could not make heads or tails out of the edits vaultbait was talking about many pages back.(pg18?)

I was not savy enough to know where this string need to be applied. I do know the version of ROF is many months newer than that post, I still have that issue with the new one.

 

Thanks and I will reedit this if the first options help me. But an edit will just take me knowing where to put it. I am not incapable, just had no clue where those fixes needed to be placed.

Followed it to the T and got same result as poster. It works fine and am glad you guys are so smart.

How do I restart the mod correctly to remove all overlays on existing NPCs and re-apply?

[Invictusblade]

On 2/19/2025 at 8:43 PM, BzDanilka said:

so you can click the command "Clear all Overlays from all NPCs"

but you 'should be able' use the internal distribution system to deliver overlays. (the external system will not work because the NPCs have already spawned)

*I never actually tested this before so I don't know for sure.

 

but I will try to add something to allow this to work. (in case it doesn't work)

 

I will do some testing tomorrow.

 

edit-> heh, I checked the script and I did add something to it. (I have completely forgotten about it so I have no idea if it works)

 

 

update about the update->

so the update will take a bit longer. (also I need to do the MCM pages as well but that should be a copy and paste job)

so the repeat script works perfectly for a single NPC but not a group of NPCs so I need to investigate.

it is somewhat finished but I really need to fix this issue.

 

new update-> it should be fixed now but I need to do further testing so it will take a day or two.

8. Makeup Kit (Add Back Makeup - Neon)

 

New overlay system

this new system will allow certain overlay groups to stay, fade(delete itself) or fade before returning a while later.

this system allows NPCs to show a harsh life,

 

Added Repeating to overlays
1. Adds Only
2. Adds and Fades over Time (simply will disappear after a few days)
3. Adds and Fades but repeats. (for example, Acne reappears after a while)

 

Commands to update NPCs to use the new system, via the internal group distribution system. (so you do not need to start a new game)

 

Please Note

some of the new system is a bit slower than the old system (certain overlays may take a bit longer(a few more seconds) to generate)

there may be unforeseen bugs with the new system.

 

 

 

so I will be making final changes to the MCM, I am not completely happy with the layout at the moment, but I should be able to post the update in the next few hours.

*unless the power goes out, there is a thunderstorm outside at the moment. then it will be tomorrow.

 

update-> mod has been uploaded, hopefully I didn't miss anything, let me know if there is any problems

 

 

edit-> I forgot to mention how the Timer works for the repeats(I need a better name) *default is 5 days

Fixed Time

time to fade = 5(default time) days then

time to return = 10 days (2 x default time)

 

Random Time

time to fade = between 1 to 5(default time) days then

time to return = between 5(default time) to 10 days

 

btw looking at it now, I will be making a option to decrease the spacing.

upcoming minor fix.

 

I adding keywords to the new commands(one to update overlays and one to Clean Damage) so the same NPC won't be selected multiple times. (I completely forgot about them)

as well as adding a keyword cleaner command.

 

I will do a test and post the update in a hour or so.

Great! I've noticed, that some of NPCs gets more than one set of similar overlays. Not all, but sometime. It happens even if I met him/her for the first time.

 upd: Day two. Ver 2.48 wirks ok so far. Didn't noticed any double or triple sets of overlays.

Hey InvictusBlade, amazing mod you’ve created and the newer system seems to be an improvement over the old one for sure.

 

I was just wondering if you had any plans to add compatibility to TitKit (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/82510)?

 

I feel like this addition would definitely add a lot more variety to the female NPCs.

 

Thanks again for a great mod!

I was not aware that it existed.

but to be honest, if I did see the mod page, I still wouldn't have paid any attention to it (the mod page is a bit light on details)

 

also I was actually looking into making a similar overlay mod to it.

 

 

I will add them to the mod in the near future. (I found one other overlay mod that I haven't added yet)

 

update-> I added them to the mod and I will give it another look in the near future,

btw the nipple overlays look quite good,

 

I moved these to tattoos because they don't really work for skin

and I am undecided about the duct tape overlays. (I haven't added them for now)

Hey, I was hoping for some help, I'm struggling with the rust face bug occurring after ROF distributes and I'm pretty sure that at least one of my overlay mods isn't matching the rest of my 2k textures, I was wondering if there was an easy way to figure out which one is the problem so i can take it out. additionally, will that bork my save or just remove the overlay, also i tried regenerating the overlays but nothing happened, I'm guessing that the bug is preventing the refresh from occurring. 

will https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/64270?tab=description work to fix it once the textures are matched or will i need to reload to before the rust face occurred?

I really hate that bug,

 

can you tell me what overlay(or skin override(this one might cause the rust face bug)) mods that is in your load order.

 

also I have both Rusty Face Fix(https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/31028) and Rusty Face Fix Redux(https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/64270)

(at least I have both in my Data folder)

 

 

also btw about the new update, I might be rearranging some of the overlays 

such as moving skin conditions to be in moles

and then rename skin conditions to Nipple type

or

it is ready to be released and I keep nipple types in Skin conditions

 

I am not sure yet.

 

also I might add a new MCM command to suit your issue-ish (mainly a command to show a list of active overlay mods(so you do a screenshot to active mods)
