OSL Aroused - Arousal Reborn (SSE & AE)

[johnhamm]

For some reason this mod doesn't interact with sexlab RDS. The PC is always treated as if they have 0 arousal, even when I manually set it to max. I'm on the latest version because I wanted to be sure, but I'm pretty sure all NPCs dont have arousal recognised by RDS

[Moon255]

It says it's compatible with other mods that use SLA/SLAX but it also says the author didn't test extensively. By now, it would be nice to keep a list of mods that require SLA/SLAX and were tested and confirmed to be working with non/small issues. Not just for the creator's benefit (so he knows what needs to be fixed/reworked/added) but also for anyone considering download this mod to replace SLA/SLAX, hard to do because it's a hard requirement for the adult side of the gameplay to work. But I'm using SLAX Redux by Baka Factory right now and it doesn't have the option of flagging clothes as skimpy/conservative it's either fully clothed or naked, so to prompt arousal, I have to set everything to naked. Which kinda sucks. 

 

Edit: Decided to throw caution to the wind and install this mod, will report back if everything worked, currently using:

 

- Baka Defeat

- DAYMOYL

- Sexlab Approach

- DD 5.2

- Sanguine Debauchery Enhanced (SD+)

- Sexlab Dialogue

 

I'm on SSE/AE 1.6.640 (I knows it's obvious, but there's always a lost lamb needing the most basic info)

People have been reporting this issue so may be a regression I will need to take a look at.

Installed midgame after uninstalling sexlab aroused worked perfectly the exception being the keyword thing everyone already mentioned. It's still a bit rough, but I'd recommend.

OSL works really well for most mods that rely on SLA and while the transition from SLA to OSL was smooth enough, I was unable to revert back to SLA from OSL. By the time I realized/was informed that some mods would likely never work with OSL (Nether's Frea follower for example), it was too late to turn back.

Went through the usual Fallrim tools cleaning process several times and the original SLA(X) versions refused to populate their MCM data - it would show up in the MCM list but the pages remained blank. Usual methods of forcing MCM updates didn't work as they usually do.

 

Maybe I waited too long, gave up too soon or have too many mod dependencies but worth keeping this in mind. Nether's Frea does have an alternate standalone "Libido" function that works but does not integrate with other Sexlab mods.

 

All that said, the performance is much much better with OSL v.s SLA(X).

Is it dropping to zero after sex? Or is it the libido/baseline going down to zero? You can fine-tune arousal/libido gains and losses in the MCM, and you can set a minimum libido level for the PC and all NPCs so even if their arousal drops to zero after sex, it will still raise back to whatever their minimum libido is.

If it's going down to zero on its own randomly then it's probably another mod that uses arousal scripts that might be overwriting OSL's scripts. If you're using SLSO then you need to have OSL overwrite it by placing it lower in your load order. 

i am using vortex, i also got similar issue except mine is orgasm always cause 0 arousal (changing arousal after no orgasm in settings of osl does work but that says "if you do not have SLSO installed" which i do have so SLSO should be dictating that part no so obviously it's not detecting SLSO then.

, i currently have "sexlabaroused.esm at 22, OAroused.esp at 65, OSLAroused.esp at 115, and SLSO.esp at 64. should SLSO be set a lower number then the others or higher up?

Because I'm absolutely insane, I decided to not only return to SLA, but instead of the SLAX Baka I was using before, I'm going for the original SLAX. Will report later to see what happened.

 

I understand that OSL uses a dummy esp for aroused and that's why the transition is, as you said, seamless. With OSL I had a blank sexlabaroused option in the MCM, so I believe in order to transition back, OSL must be completely cleaned so the plugins will not conflict, but of course, it's also possible that even doing that (you did use Fallrim, so...) we'll still have issues, but it's worth a try. For now I'm not using Fallrim tools, I'm just doing everything through NMM as per usual.

Tried every trick in the book and then some to switch to and test the new SLAM on my old LO (AFTER I was done with it). No matter what I did the SLAM MCM would not show up. So good luck with your endeavor. If you still care for your current saves though, I heavily recommend testing on a different profile.

You are absolutely correct. While transitioning to OSL is ok, revert back is impossible without ruining the save, because it bugs the hell out of sla(x) mcm menu. So, the option is to either stick to OSL until the very end or starting a new game. Because I wanted to test a few overhauls, I decided to risk my save (my character progression was saved by SUM) so yeah, it's a bit annoying having to play a few quests again but... It is what it is. 

 

Bottom line: OSL's performance is great, but it doesn't work for all the sla(x) mods, it's okay to change from sla(x) to OSL midgame, but it's definitive choice, there's no going back. I would still recommend OSL for those with mods that work just fine with OSL, but if the intent is to avoid conflict or incompatibility just stick to sexlab aroused/extended/redux/baka edited.

If both performance and compatibility is a concern, one might wish to try the NG version of SLAM:

Performance seem similar to OSL. I'm not 100% certain about some of the keyword options and it of course lacks the Osex integration. It also appears to suffer from that old runaway arousal problem slax is 'famous' for, but like OSL it's under development, so perhaps that problem can be fixed. If the wider compatibility is not a concern I would still recommend OSL, so far it seems a little more mature. At least once the keyword bug is fixed again.

Is there a way to  make the player character masturbate with this mod? i remember the old sexlab aroused had the N key to do it. But cant find anything like that in this one.

If not anyone knows another mod that does it and work with osl aroused? thanks.

SLEN comes to mind, of course it's a bit overkill just for a masturbation power.

Hi,

I like this mod, really fun together with SLSO. I also like the idea of having buffs/debuffs based on arousal level, so that you have to watch your arousal level. But I am using "Requiem Static Skill Leveling" (I have disabled gaining experience by skilling and killing, can get only experience by doing quests, Slave Run etc., this is much fun), so "Lover's Desire" buffs/debuffs are  useless (even harmful, becauses this messes up the calculations of how much experience must be added to the player for the next level). Would it be possible to buff/debuff health, mana, stamina regenaration instead of skill improvement rate ? I know almost nothing about Skyrim's attribute, magic spell and effect system, it would take me ages to do this with Creation Kit. Maybe someone here with more modding experience could add this ? This would be a great addition to Aroused/SLSO !     

 

Ps: I had a look at OSLAroused.esp with xEdit. As far as I understand, the spell "OSLAroused_SLADesireSpell" adds via the effects "OSLA_SLADesire05Mgef" etc. the perks "OSLA_SLADesire05Perk" etc. to the player, which modify the experience rate multiplicator. If I want to modify mana and stamina regenerate rate instead, I would have to do something like in the "OSLA_OArousedMagicaInc/Dec" magical effects instead of adding perks, right ? Btw., how are the perks removed again in your code, I see only, that you do a "PlayerRef.RemoveSpell(SLADesireSpell)" in ypur scripts, does this automatically remove the perks, too ?

 

 

It was surprisingly easy to change, because the effects "OSLA_OArousedMagicaDec" and "OSLA_OArousedStaminaDec" already do what I want. One only ha to replace the effects in "OSLAroused_SLADesireSpell" with these effects and to choose an appropriate magnitude for them, then it works. I only hve to find a way now to reduce my arousal, otherwise I am totally debalitated

 

 

Edit: No, I was to optimistic. First, there is a bug in OAroused and OSLAroused, the detrimental effects like "OSLA_OArousedMagicaDec" must have the "detrimental" flag, not "recover". But when I set magnitude >= 1.0 magicka regeneration stops completely, and when I set it to a value > 0 and < 1, magick regeneration rate doesn't change at all. I don't understand this, maybe there is some sort of rounding. 

 

Phew, finally found out how this works. You have to set both flags, "recover" and "detrimental", for detrimental effects. "recover" isn't the opposite of "detrimental", it means that the effect is reverted before it is reapplied (unlike a drain spell, where the effect is applied every second and the applications accumulate, eg. a drain health spell is reapplied until you are dead). With the flags "detrimental, recover" and magnitude 0, 250 max magicka, a magickrate of 1.15, recovering 130 magicka takes about 25 seconds, and with magnitude 20.0 ~ 40 seconds. That's longer then 20%, but at least the debuff works.

 

I attached a patch for OSLAroused.esp, which changes the experience rate debuff to a magicka/stamina buff/debuff based on arousal rate, and adds the "detrimental" flag to the negative effects

Lol. Well i found "Sexlab release SE" mod to work if you want that your PC masturbates automatically went she reaches a certain arousal threshold. If not "sexlab eager nps" has a spell to masturbate. Release is more realistic but haves your character masturbating in public wich is not very immersive haha.

Well, I just remember that original Aroused used to have this spells on LE. ?
 

Eager NPCs sounds nice, I will probably drop SL Romance in its favour.

Thanks for your advices, ravanara!

Np problem Nagib! eager is cool so far. a lot of options.

[ravensm785]

is this comepatible with SLP+ ? and if so, what load order?

[Someone92]

I've used it together with p+ and have not noticed any issues.

I let LOOT sort these two mods.

[Empt1e]

How to fix this? Every time I enter the game, a warning pops up that I have the usual Sexlab Aroused installed, although this is not the case. The only esp is provided by this mod. How to turn off the warning?

You are certain that you do not have another SLA variant installed (SexLab Aroused (by Fishburger), SexLab Aroused Extended (SLAX), SexLab Aroused Modular (SLAM), SexLab Aroused NG, etc.)?

Another mod is overwritting one of the files in OSL. Make sure it wins all file conflicts
