ZaZ without SL dependency

[1001nights]

Hey collective swarm-intelligence of Loverslab,

 

does anybody know if it's possible to have ZaZ active without the SexLab dependency? Background is, I like the furniture in combination with ZaZ-Helper to "decorate" my home, but I don't really need all the other functions because I am using OStim NG.

 

So maybe someone could help me or point me in the right direction, like do I have to delete some Quests in xEdit which fire some scripts up etc. etc..

 

Thanks in advance!

ZaZ hooks into sexlab for the bondage sex animations, and it also uses the expression system. Removing that would require reworking a large chunk of the mod. I would just install sexlab and not use it if I were you, much less work involved. Alternatively, you could make a dummy plugin and rename it to SexLab.esm, although that might not be enough for ZaZ to properly initialize. Also, it would probably crash your game if ZaZ tried to reference some sexlab assets that aren't actually there.

Thanks for the answer. I didn't know that thing with the expression system. I already tried to do it with an empty dummy SexLab.esm, but, as you expected, ZaZ didn't fire up. Well, worth a try.

Zaz has a hard dependency to sexlab?
Its been a while, so it might very well possible that i cleaned it manually at some point, but my Zaz esm doesnt have sexlab as a master ?.
Expressions do work for me, but note that I have sexlab installed (with esm disabled).

I´ll share it here, maybe its of use to you. (Zaz 8+, LE version) (might still work on SE) (no guarantues though)

oh damn somehow I've just noticed now your answer! thanks for that, I'll try it.

Regarding the dependency: yes, the ZaZ.esm doesn't have Sexlab.esm as master, but without Sexlab, at least in my setup, ZaZ doesn't even fire up, and neither can't I use furniture etc. (like I said, I just want to "decorate" my homes :D)

 

I come back when I had a chance to test it out and report. Maybe someone else is also interested in that.

Unfortunately Big names like devious device also have hard dependency to sexlab. I do personally prefer Ostim, more fluid and immersive, i hope they add support to ostim integration. I feel like mod authors don't want to migrate to ostim because almost all mods here depend on sexlab.
