!Maidens of Darkness

[i_beleth]

Hey Rowdy, 

I cant find Sultina’s sister Mina from Rex’s List at the mara eye pond. Can you please tell me where can I find the Ids of maidens in order to use placeatme command.

Does the new version use 3ba bodies?

[RowdyD1313]

Warning
Switching the skins will mismatch the 4 custom maidens look;

Torga, Katarina, Roarri, and Ramona.

 

In the next update I hopefully fix this.
What to expect in the next update:

• Custom enemies
• All maidens placed in the world
• More dungeons and locations
• More new armors and outfits, plus color options
• Quests! Yes I'll be working on the story. 

So why Rowdy, did you release half of what you wanted done for the mod?

 

  A. To put it bluntly I'm going to be out of commission soon. The doctors called and the ball has started rolling for my next surgery. The surgery is a big one. 8-10 hours they tell me. Yikes! The recovery will be a few months for me and I'm probably not going to know what year it is let alone what planet I'm on when I come out of surgery.🤣 So the October release got cancelled for the mod and I gave myself till the end of July as a safety net. I'll take a break from Modding for a few days and then begin just updating the Daedric Maidens to their new looks, which are ready to go.

Yes, all bodies and armors are now 3ba

Hey, man.  Just a thank you on all your hard work, it's really appreciated.  Good luck with the surgery.  It's been almost 25 years now since my cancer surgery, but boy do I remember how scary that was.  Now my sister is about to go through it, too.  But you'll get through this, stronger than ever.  (You'd better, we need more maidens to rescue, bro )

 

Good luck again!

Thanks so much! I wish your sister well and good luck. 

Yeah I don't get anxious or scared about the surgeries till I'm strapped down on the operating table and the mask is placed on my face. That's when the old heart is like "Oh sh**!" 😄

Oh they'll be more maidens don't worry. Once I'm back on my feet I have plans

Thanks again for the comment, I appreciate it. Stay healthy!

Thank you for sharing your creations with us all. Your ladies make Skyrim even more interesting to explore. (and eye candy is always a good thing. lol)

Hoping for a swift recovery. 

Thanks again.

I recommend my home is your home, mod as the maidens will go back to where they were captured otherwise. In the next update I'm planning making "Calia's Lair." A player home/base that if dismissed or freed they'll go to. 

[Sovnfraude]

hey Rowdy just passing to wish you luck on the surgery and to thank you for the mod and for not using mega this time, mega never gives me a good amount of bandwith to work with before having to wait for the reset.

I didnt try any of the previous updates for quite some time to try and sync the new game restart with the next yuriana version but with the content in this update I think its time to start a new run. 
who knows, koz might release the next update this month and make restart the game again but that is a risk I am willing to take.

Hi Rowdy, I've encountered some really weird bugs while using the latest update. I use the mod Proteus, and upon opening Proteus Wheel my character name would become 'Pantea's Flute' for no reason. Not only that, once I enter Solitude guards will quickly become hostile. 
This is really weird because I've never encountered these issues when I used the pre-alpha 1.1.0c version, these bugs only appeared when using the latest one. And once I disable the new version and going back to 1.1.0c, those bugs no longer appears.
I've attached 2 images, one is from 1.1.0c and the other from 1.1.1 version. Both character's names are 'Test', but as you can see one is weirdly appeared as 'Pantea's Flute' in Proteus wheel menu.
Thanks, and I wish you luck on your surgery.

I downloaded the new version. I haven't tested it yet. I was trying to convert it to BSA format with Cathedral. I noticed something like this. The same DX armor pack (2.5 GB) was copied as both:
textures\DX and (this is necessary)
textures\armor\DX. This is not normal. It needs to be deleted.. (2.5gb)

 

Meshes\actors\character\FaceGenData\FaceGeom\!Maidens of Darkness.esp 28 .dds files. The garbage file will be deleted.

Meshes\!DoDArmor 773 .tri files in it. The garbage file will be deleted.

 

textures\actors\character\FaceGenData\FaceTint\!Maidens of Darkness.esp 85 .TGA files. The garbage files will be deleted.

textures\armor\DX Copying the folder incorrectly. The DX folder in the Armor folder will be deleted.

 

textures\actors\character\facegendata\facetint\!maidens of darkness.esp Inside: 8 .dds files have no NIF equivalent. These files are junk files. They will be deleted.
0006fe8e - 0012b43f - 0012b440 - 0012b445 - 0027ed76 - 0029d39f - 0012123b - 00135647

my bsa format: !Maidens of Darkness.bsa (1.3gb)
               !Maidens of Darkness - Textures.bsa (2gb) this perfect running. 1.5.97 for (cathetral 2021 version) total: 3.3 gb.

There is a very light neck seam on some characters. yet... my fovorite girls. thanks you again.

Wow, weird. Are you using the update on a saved game? The new update requires a new game as a lot of things in the mod have changed, though it shouldn't be interfering with things. Hmmm....

Ugh, my own mod working against me. I'm on it. Time for a little house cleaning. lol
Thanks for the info. Amazing how the .tri and .TGA files sneak back in.

I'm still testing. I'm summoning characters with the Skyrim Cheat Engine mod. (Summoning with a code is very cumbersome.) The address is: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/70159
Sibel - Ramona's neck stitching has been fixed. However, the neck cut error persists for: Desdemona - Dominya - Usanni - Erica. You've changed the body type for Sibel - Ramona. This might be the cause of the error. I recommend changing the other characters that are giving the error as well.
Adding hair to the enemy characters is nice. At least they don't look like monkeys anymore. You've also set their health level to 900. They're nearly impossible to defeat. I suggest you lower this, or there should be a way to subdue them, like with the wenches mod. I haven't tested the new locations. But even as is, it's one of my favorite mods. I respect your work and look forward to more.

By all means, keep the feedback coming! I've already removed the tri files and what not this morning along with some other touch ups.

The neck seem issue is another reason I want to kinda move away from Fair/Diamon skins. They are notorious for this when making followers. That's why I love the new skin it's SO much easier to work with. 
Call me crazy but I actually like finding out what followers have a neck seem or other issue, gives me an excuse to work on their look.

Nope. These issues still occur on new game. Opening new game on old version is fine though.

Good luck for your operation mate, hope everything goes well!

 

Can't wait to see what kind of quests you'll add to the mod, that was really what was missing for me, hopefully we'll get to know the ladies better

Check behind the hanging moss in the room where you found Bianca

[LadyPandoramlem]

Hello Rowdy! I'm loving so far what you did, although i almost die at Lucky's pete's lair, the trap triggers cant be seen, so far i have Bianca and so far i haven had any errors. I wonder if you will update the presets too.
