Small question.

 

Does the 1.8.1 version work with LE alone, or do I need to install 1.8.0LE first?

 

Use Cathedral Assets Optimizer once installed. There are some meshes that need to be backported. You don't need to install 1.8 LE first.

Hi. The interiors are terribly dark in my game, especially with Lux installed. Is there a possibility to make them much brighter? Thanks

I have no lighting mods at all and all of the brothels are very dark even with brightness at max. I still love the interiors, but If I'm playing a lady of the evening character I have to use the Live Anywhere mod to add additional wall sconces to the player's room or I might as well not have Sexlab, since I can't see what's going on in the adult scenes.  In the Windhelm Dibella's Garden I also add a compact cooking kit atop two dwemer cabinets squished together with their legs submerged into the floor to replace the chest. The added heat keeps my character from freezing while she works (Frostfall). I also have a dance mod, and bard mods so I usually have to add lighting to the main room of any given brothel so there is enough light that I can see my character sing and dance. Otherwise it is just too dark.  I understand the desire for ambiance, but at the end of the day, these are interiors for an adult mod and if you can't see the adult scenes because it's too dark, it's time to put on the carpentry apron. I'm glad the author is considering a brighter version, that would be fantastic!

You can use https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/149920 for better lighting in the meanwhile, I need to reconstruct my CK setup, right now is crashing a lot.

 

I'm not replacing the beds, you can find a model replacer for that, just don't use the Base Object Swapper on the beds, it will cause problems.

If you turned TAP interiors into a ESL then it will not work with any of the patches, the patches will be pointing at references that do not exist anymore, hence the issues.

The esp that I turn esl was TAP more customers.esp soo is the same issue or is something else?? I actually havent though of made tap interiors a esl, and sounds like a good idea, should I do it or could potencialy break something?

[xtrange988]

Current versions of TAP Interiors can't be turned into esl, too many references. 

 

The more customers patch is already a esp flagged as esl, doesn't need to be turned into the esl format. Another reason could be a mod modifying the garden's exterior cell.

Fix next update. Along with layout changes to improved NPC movement, custom meshes, occlusion planes and better lighting.

Would it be possible to have this without SexLab.esm required as a master?

And please LE for next version. You can make lightning optional ? 

i made redlight in some other mods, but my actual mouse has problems with holding the wheel down so i cant rotate in CK.

Right-click on the object you want to edit and select the ‘Edit’ option, there you will find everything you need without using the mouse wheel.

You need the mouse wheel to rotate the house !

I will but no promises of how the lighting will look in LE. Should be brighter compared to older versions.

For Ostim I suppose?

Yes.

 

Not a big deal, as one can always keep SL installed while using Ostim conversion, but it would be another step towards thinning the plugin count 🙂

Does the update from saturday contain brightness ?  I installed it midgame and saw no changes to non-interiors TAP 

[metanight78]

I'm having a really weird issue with version 1.9 LE. I install the mod, and it doesn't add any of the changes. All the brothels are the base TAP brothels. I uninstalled 1.9 and reverted to 1.8 LE and 1.8 works just as it always has. Am I missing something? Yes I used loot, yes i made a bashed patch for each.

I checked and unfortunately, the author uses the latest version of CK for Skyrim SE/AE, which results in Header Version 1.710000, which LE itself cannot load. You can easily change this in SSEEdit, select TAP Interiors.esp and change the value to 1.700000.

Thank you. I'll will make that change to my file. I would be willing to share the completed file to replace the current download if the mod author is interested.

Please do, I had no idea about that change, I don't have a LE setup to test things.

There are some small changes, Whiterun, Solitude and Riften brothels now use the exterior sky sunlight and have the same lighting template as the rest of the city interiors. Riften is now separated in two zone and that allows me to extend the light radius considerably.

Let me know if the ESP replacer works for you.

 I started a new game to test it, no changes to vanilla tap. Ir IS vanilla TAP !

I tested LE 1.7, 1.8 , 1.9 in a row, 1.7 and 1.8 working fine, though dark, when it came to 1.9 i get a message " missing file TAP Interirors".   So you made an empty file.

Ok. I changed the header as discussed earlier, and the mod is detectable now by Skyrim. However another issue seems to have come up. For the Windhelm Brothel, I'm unable to do the nude party, despite all of the requirements having been met. I talk with Sonje, go through the dialogue tree to start the party, then the quest never starts and all NPCs stay dressed, and keep doing what they where already doing. I'm holding off uploading my modified file until I know this is an issue with just my file, or with version 1.9 of the mod.
