Is there something wrong with Version 19 over at the Nexus? Or am I missing something?

I did not see a reply to this in the thread. I'm sure there's a reason why those "in the know" where still pointing to links for Estrus v12.1 when v19 was out there.....?

 

And BattlebenF's screenshots look terrific. Did he ever post his tweaks somewhere?

I would never recommend 12.1 but I do recommend 14.2. Version 14.2 plays seamlessly with Lovers with PK without having to play with any settings. Version 19 requires you to turn some things off so as not to mess up the lovers with pk animations.

Honestly? I think it's because it requires some reading and research. Not had many real issues and it is a radical update under the hood. Now to be fair, English is not remotely the authors first language. Even so, I see many problems mentioned on Nexus that seem down to an inability to follow instructions. Almost as many who can't read the explanation for a lack of a Skyrim port and whine for one without even checking if the Author HAS Skyrim.

Edit: Though apparently there are LoversPK conflicts.

Yea Symon' date=' the conflict is the BU function. If you turn that off in the Estrus settings then 19 gets along just fine with lovers with pk.

Thanks for the tip.

So someone may have already mentioned this but the Estrus mod can have some undesirable effects with many other mods. My biggest problem that I had with it is that it puts into play an idle animation where if you strip the clothes from a character then that characters will attempt to retain their modesty by covering there private parts with their arms. The problem with this animation is that if you have other mods like Claudia's Secrete installed then many of the animations don't work because the NPC's involved strip their clothes off and immediately try to cover themselves with their arms but also have sex at the same time. Trust me I don't care if you crazy limber but that just doesn't work. There are a few other mods where I have run into problems with this idle animation. I don't know the number of the animation file specifically or I would mention it but all in all I thought I would just point this out.

Alternatively Demonwise' date=' you can just turn of 'NudeShy' compatibility in the configuration and that problem vanishes.

Ahh, well, now I feel like an idiot. I'll have to take another look at it then.

Okay, it's been a couple months and I got no answer, so I'll try again. That Depraver mod isn't behaving for me. I can get the creature summoned, but it just melee attacks anything that's not me. I've even tried disabling everything except Estrus and the Depraver mod. What is actually supposed to set off the Depraver's....depravity? I can see the script attempting to fire, when it rears up and does that fireball type thing. I checked the console, and it wasn't very helpful (to me at least). After it "connects" with the fireball thing, this appears in the console:

 

"Error in script 01200084

Param index 01 out of bounds"

 

Sometimes it will just chase its target, then stand there watching them if the target's stuck in a corner. I hope someone can help. I want to have my own portable tentacle rape monster thing!

I don't think the Depraver or the Ambush Caster work with the current version of Estrus. Looked around at them both in the CS a bit to see if there was some easy fix, but the script is beyond me.

I tried the 14r2 version as well, but that didn't help. Maybe I have to try an even older version?

Tell you what, if you (or anybody else, for that matter) can find a way to attach these meshes to the bone structure in blender, I will post my tweaks somewhere.

 

Blender isn't working for me and I can't fully utilize these meshes until somebody links them to bones. I would prefer the animations to be unchanged if possible. Might be too much work.

 

(Actually, all these meshes are missing is a niskininstance, if anybody knows how to do that)

What version of Estrus does this 'Depraver mod' require? If it doesn't say, you have some experimentation ahead of you. Likely it is not compatible with 1.9.

 

The latest version of Estrus has radically different internals to 1.4R5 (don't use earlier Rx versions). Personally I'd try 1.4R5 for backwards compatibility and then write off the mod as incompatible.

 

There is NOTHING wrong with 1.9, except it requires a little reading to update from a previous version. (apparently this is too much like work (grin)).

 

Be aware that as an animation mod it is very prone to being broken by another animation mod.

Had a quick look at the esp.

Two inconsequential dirty cell edits. Quite clean.

Several scripts with the dreaded *MODIFIED suffix which means they were created uncleanly but that's neither fatal nor uncommon.

 

Can't be too sure, sadly the author doesn't mention which version of Estrus this was written with. You can bet it wasn't 1.9.

 

I'd try it with a proper WORKING install of 1.4R5 with both late in the load order and no other animation mods of any note (n.b. no LoversPK, which all my experience shows often doesn't play well with other sex mods, even when you think it is).

 

Failing that, as work on the mod seems to have ceased.....

Yes, that's the disappointing bit. Where is the 14r5 version anyway? Nexus only has 19r5 and 14r2

Posted

Sorry, tired I guess. Meant 1.9R5 and 1.4R2.

I meant The Depraver mod may not work well with other animation mods if it is having issues with 1.4R2.

Can somebody post the links to these things? Maybe I can give it a shot.
