the quest from ZAZ workshop is part of tryout and the quest sends you to vault 19 where epstein enslaves you, though the quest is not required just go to vault 19 and talk to him.

So i have also a question: How can i escape when my skill for Lockpicking and Hacking is to low ? ... Sure i can walk behind Epstine throught the door when he leaves, but i think this is not so planed. What's the mod's way to escape ?

You can also probably try pickpocketing him for the master key. Although yeah, hacking/lockpicking the door would probably be easier provided you have the skill required for it.

 

As for me though, I thought he would "naturally" set my PC free after servicing a set number of customers. I thought of this because as my PC was forced to satisfy more and more johns, his armor upgraded from Powder Ganger > Reinforced Leather(?) > Metal Armor > Combat Armor. I thought after a few more he would move on to something ridiculous like Power Armor, but there's a bug with this mod (or Sexout in general), wherein my PC, along with the customers would be frozen in their places, unable to transition into the fucking phase. So I just escaped and never looked back. Was hoping to see where it would have led however.

I can't even play this because the Powder Gangers hate me - I've tried repuation/karma fixing mods, but nothing works, they are always hostile to me.

Perhaps you should have skipped Ghost Town Gunfight or helped the PGs take over Goodsprings. But then again, in my experience, I visited Vault 19 and despite having a Merciful Thug reputation with the Powder Gangers (having completed Ghost Town Gunfight, wiped the NCRCF clean and finished Booted), they just let me roam around the Vault, not shooting unless I provoked them.

To get around Ghost Town, I simply avoid administering the killing blow to any of the Powder Gangers.  You can cripple them, you can shoot the guns out of their hands, you can wear down their HP, all with a few well placed shots, without actually killing them.  Just don't make the killshot.  Let the villagers do that.  This will keep you neutral for the prison.

 

As for Vault 19, and the PGs at that little house near vault 19... I do believe they are marked as a separate faction from the PGs at the prison.  I have been a villain to one and still accepted by the other simultaniously, many many play throughs.

Funny, whenever I get Ghost Town they all seem to drop dead like sacks of produce due to what I affectionately call sudden heart attack syndrome. I haven't quite figured out what causes it, but I suspect me opening the console, clicking on each one individually and typing kill may have something to do with it...

Malvin: Yeah but Jim, you're giving away all our best tricks!

 

lol  I do that sometimes too when I've run out of giv-a-shit.

Past versions of tryouts have had problems with this mod because of "pathing problems".

 

The mod will set up a conversation that has to happen, and set the NPC (Eddie, I think, always, but maybe I have overlooked a conversation) to talk with you, but because of where things were set up, and maybe because of other NPCs which do not move, he gets stuck. And, since you cannot move, nothing can happen.

 

A solution for this kind of thing, I think, would be to set a timer for how long the game will allow things to progress without the conversation starting. And, if the timer goes off, fade to black, and do some kind of fallback presentation (maybe removing everyone from the room and/or putting everyone in pre-set locations?).

 

A variation on this approach mightbe to give all NPCs assigned locations, and change them a few times while the scene hopefully-progresses-but-maybe-not, before doing the fade-to-black last ditch effort...

Vault 19 and Epstein has been volontary deactivated due to a lot of issues.

 

So... you went to the effort of digging up a thread from December but didn't read the last post?
