There's a JSON file under SKSE\Plugins named "SexyBanditCaptives.json".  You can edit the file names to be whatever you need them to be, either because of versions of those mods, or merging.

Perfect! That solved the problem. Thanks!

You remember when another captive dropped from nowhere when the first one was handeled? Exactly the same happened here again as I reloaded a save from just before entering the vicinity.

This is a case of the code doing exactly what was commanded, regardless of what was intended.   Had an epiphany and added a single condition to the search sequence that the found subject's Location not be the Location the Player is in.  That should fix it (difficult to test that condition), and it will be included in whatever patch or version next contains the ESP file.  What it won't prevent is you rescuing a Captive but leaving the Boss who is inside (like at ReachCliff) alive, then being sent back there 24 hours later because it's the only site with a living Boss left.

Please add some kind of debug, skip quest or reset quest feature to in game  

I've attempted the questline with 4 playthroughs and only progressed decently once

 

Genuinely having a crack here but it's just brutal if the quest bugs out and can't be solved without starting a new save

 

currently:

0.98f SSE, patch SSE

- progressed to Taarie obtaining panties in read between the lines

- get the update to check back in but she has no dialogue for the quest, can't get dialogue from other npcs in the city

- tried adding patch 2 & 3, loading earlier but no luck

Will examine.  This is the first report of an issue progressing with Taarie.

Do three things via the console with Taarie from the point where the Quest has sent you back to her:

1. Check to make sure your version of Taarie is RefID 000132AB to make sure another mod hasn't replaced her with a copy with a different RefID
   • Since you got this far, this probably isn't our issue, but it doesn't hurt to check
2. Check the current stage for the Quest as follows: "GetStage SBCSV" and if it's less than 30, use "SetStage SBCSV 30".
   • If it's >30 there's really something wrong
3. Check her FactionRank for XX015895.  If it's not =2, set it to 2.  Then try the dialogue again.

Will troubleshoot from this end.  Thanks for the report; please report back your results.  This is the branch that's been tested least due to its prerequisites and shop hours.

[eldritch68]

So, I started a new playthrough, 0.98f with patch 1,2 & 3. Innkeeper sent me to Winterhold, but when I get there, neither the Jarl or the Steward have any dialogue regarding it. Please tell me I don't have to become Archmage first.

Please doublecheck it's Winterhold and not Windhelm.  People have mixed them up before.

 

If still in doubt, run "StartQuest SBCRecovery" to see the site log.

Thanks for the fast reply!

1. base ID 000132AB, ref 000198AC
2. getstage returned 30
3. she did not have that faction at all! there's no faction with form location for this mod
   I tried AddToFaction 00015895 2  - not found for parameter faction
   not sure what else i could try as the first two characters for that

Speaking of bosses: The camp at the exit of Bleak Falls Barrow  has two bosses. Is this a relict of MBC and Einarrs Patch? Is either boss valid for SBC?

Vanilla Skyrim has some boss handeling code as do some other mods out there (SLEN for example). Is there a boss boss in this camp?

This won't do

You have to replace the leading zeroes with the digits that indicate SBC's load order (for me its 27, yours might be different)

You can try "help sbc 3" and check the first two digits there

Thank you, I was able to add the correct faction and proceed

 

Now the next NPC Ahkari is missing dialog and an SBC faction

 

Is there a way for me to find the required factions in console or SSEEDIT?

Use "AddToFaction XX015895 4" where XX is your SBC load order as @RomulusAugustulus kindly described.

Is the Sofia Integration working? I always find her at the whiterun stables. And the mod can't find my PAHE.

Integration is currently suspended, but the detection module still functions.

Known issue, but only for some users.  Unknown cause, but the only thing you're missing as a result is direct conversion to PAHE from a subjugated state.  This can be replicated via the console "Set SBC_PAH_On to 1", then the dialogue for that option should show.

 

How about editing your post and putting the giant graphic under a spoiler?

Chalk this up to being a WIP, but when I talk to a quest giver (i.e. Nenya) I get an initial captives dialogue, there is a silent moment her mouth is moving, then she talks like she gave me something to pursue, but I got no item or quest. I've tried moving the esp to the bottom of my load order.

 

thanks!

That sounds like some serious lag in the processing for the available dialogue(s) for the character, but is likely more a symptom of your processor and mod load.  The only way to help any of that on the mod end is to put a disqualifying Faction condition at the top of the list (several were further down the list).  That has now been implemented and will be in the next version.  Thanks for the report.

[RevanCathal]

So a couple things: First, the compatibility detection is not picking up that I have Paradise Halls installed. While I'm currently using v0.98f for SSE (and yes, I'm running SE 1.5.97 with SKSE 2.00.20), this was also a problem with v0.98e SSE. The only SE version of Paradise Halls I can find is PAHE (Paradise Halls Enhanced). Second, I got to the dark elf in the college and freed the first captive and before letting her go her merry way I was going to enjoy a little merriment with her but the dialogue that lead to a selection of style of sex through further dialogue didn't actually activate any scenes.

[RomulusAugustulus]

Another report:

I was tasked with Nilheim. I went there and for some (I guess vanilla) reason, Telrav wasn't there. I went in anyways, got to the top of the tower unchallenged and found Adrari. Her story was she was a farmer somewhere. I removed the restraints and in this moment, the guards became hostile, killing Adrari in the ensuing fight.

So I reloaded a save from earlier, again went to Nilheim and this time, Telrav was there. I followed him, the vanilla quest played out as expected. We (Mjoll and me) killed everybody, I approached Adrari and this time her story was that she was a former member of the gang. Well, in my book that means subjugation, I did so and after this was successfull, I thought of rewarding Mjoll. I told Adrari to serve her, she accepted and - nothing happened. According to the Sexlab logs, not even an attempt to start a scene was made. I tried again with the same result. I took her to Breezehome, offered her to Lydia, but no sex.

So, Follower reward doesn't work, at least for me.

Is it correct that the captive story is not determined at the time of placement?

No; it's a determined Faction, however there are three non-mutually exclusive versions of each story so you just heard a different one.  All three are true.  She was a farmer, though not a good one, when the war started and was rejected from the army.  She eventually fell in with the bandits who betrayed her.

The last patch posted was script only, and there were some changes to the processing for scenes.  It may be that without the updated ESP, which didn't change anything except possibly the Property declarations, it's causing this script to fail.  Will test.  v0.98g isn't quite ready, but may solve this problem.

Addressed three posts before yours.  Known issue / unknown cause / remains unresolved / impact and workaround described.

I do no longer have the topic of offering a slut to friends. Is this intentional or a bug?

In the FAQ (this is the 3rd Person interaction):

Spoiler

"Q6:  In the last version . . .

A6:  Which is totally incompatible with the current version.  Leave your expectations at the door because SBC has fundamentally changed.  Some things will be astonishingly similar, many things will be totally new.  A few features have been disabled pending further development and testing: Custom Captives, 3rd Person interactions among them.  Upgrade from anything <v0.98 must be done on a new savegame or a save completely cleaned of all previous versions of SBC."

 

[Blackbird Wanderer]

The bad news:  All of the scripts running scenes under the Subjugated Captive section appear to be (currently) non-functional.  This makes the affected SexLab scenes not fire; they just stop.

The good news:  Recompiling them seems to have jogged them out of whatever funk they were in and they're working again.  Will include the newly compiled scripts with v0.98g.

Can't attest to why Telrav wasn't around.  SBC does nothing with that Actor.

Got it working with the recompile.  Try this script pack and see if that fixes it for you.  [Note: There are some diagnostic debugs turned on in this pack.]

For example If I pick a dialogue line, and she responds, there is a long pause/silence ( which is where her response is supposed to kick in)

Hazard a guess you're not using Fuz Ro D-oh?  It significantly improves the issue with the delay you describe and is on the recommended mod list.
