That probably means you have another mod editing dragons or this dragon in particular.

You need to have Parasites near the end of your load order to make it override the default dragon.

Okay, I tried disabling any mods which would affect dragons, but I still get the same problem. After pushing the button and getting the message about the queen being free, it spawns the dragon not the queen.

 

I also checked and SexLab Parasites doesn't have any conflicts with any dragon related mods. Only conflict is with ZaZ and SLP is configured to win the conflict.

 

Is there anything else I could try?

 

UPDATE -

Okay, it seems just disabling them simply wasn't enough (for some reason). I had to completely uninstall them, and then it worked, Thanks again!

Any idea why my Chaurus Queen armor looks like this in game?

Okay, ich habe versucht, alle Mods zu deaktivieren, die sich auf Drachen auswirken würden, aber ich habe immer noch das gleiche Problem. Nachdem Sie den Knopf gedrückt und die Nachricht erhalten haben, dass die Königin frei ist, erscheint der Drache, nicht die Königin.

 

Ich habe es auch überprüft und SexLab Parasites hat keine Konflikte mit Drachen-bezogenen Mods. Der einzige Konflikt besteht mit ZaZ und SLP ist so konfiguriert, dass es den Konflikt gewinnt.

 

Gibt es noch etwas, das ich versuchen könnte?

 

AKTUALISIEREN -

Okay, es scheint, dass es einfach nicht genug war, sie einfach zu deaktivieren (aus irgendeinem Grund). Ich musste sie komplett deinstallieren, und dann hat es funktioniert. Nochmals vielen Dank!

 

Well - you can also call this dragon beforehand with a shout (Relenting Force) (roar at the artificial sun) and then defeat it...
(of course - that you have to go to this top platform)

.. before you go into the "interdiemsional" gap - if you kill the dragon - then it usually works with the Chaurus-Queen.
The dragon is almost "iconic" - like the ebony warrior, there is only one of them

You need to rebuild the body meshes with the CBBE bodyslides available on the download page to match your body.

I'm using the BHUNP presets that you linked in the mod description, since I'm using BHUNP body. I rebuilt them several times trying to see if it would help, but it didn't. Is BHUNP support broken?

I don't use BHUNP.. maybe someone who does can confirm.

There's only so much that I could do at the time. And probably the same with the guy who did the BHUNP bodyslides. The starting meshes aren't the highest quality - those lines you see are how the mesh is made - with big huge shapes instead of smaller ones. It was either a pointy ass or your naked ass clipping through the middle of it. There was no in between because there were simply not enough vertices.

 

 

 

However, I've just found a tool in outfit studio that might let us fix that....  (w00t!! Leveled up outfit studio skills again!)

Open the chaurus legs in outfit studio and select Shape -> Refine Mesh. Do that twice. Now add the BHUNP body reference and conform all the sliders again.

Delete the body when done and save the project. Close and reopen bodyslide and rebuild the outfit.

 

Spoiler

 

 

 

 

Should be much less pointy. Example with a thick preset and 3BA.

Updated Chaurus Legs only for 3BA and CBBE.

Also, I'm not sure if you noticed while building, but there's two versions of the chaurus armor. Make sure you're building all the same set if you meant the armor is two different types.

 

Your top looks like the 'blades' version. The legs are the 'chaurus hunter' version.

I cannot for the life of me get scaling to work with BHUNP. Is the NiOverride functionality just incompatible?

The scaling inside Parasites is very limited.. it relies on Hormones to do the heavy lifting... and Hormones is broken at the moment (but I just fixed it in testing so a solution will be published soon!).

Hey zarantha, thanks for taking the time to reply!

 

To answer your question, yeah I noticed the different versions of the armor and I tried them all, but always the same result.

 

The strangest thing for me is that when I preview the build in BodySlide it looks perfect:

 

But then in game as you saw it looks terrible.

 

Do you know why that's the case?

 

EDIT-

Am I to understand correctly that the mod applies that weird leg mesh over the armor itself to simulate an "insect-like" body? If so is there a way to just disable that aspect of the mod altogether and just enjoy the armor for what it is (i.e. so it looks just like in the BodySlide preview screenshots I attached)?

 

EDIT #2-

Okay so I just ended up deleting chaurus legs.tri and chaurus legs.nif. That got rid of that goofy looking effect and the armor looks like it does in the BodySlide previews (except there's no feet now lol). I guess that's as good as it's gonna get atm, unless someone decided to add replacement feet meshes Also that glow effect which comes with the armor is really annoying, so I'm gonna pass on using it, even though it's a nice concept overall.

Is there a way to increase chaurus queen armor rating? It doesn't seem to go up with heavy armor skill levek/perks.

Installed mod, everything seems fine, MCM pop up normal.

 

I can be infect and seek for heal.

----

BUT I can't ever start Brood Maiden quest.

Neither talk to Lami of Marthal directly nor finish heal quest with Danica of Whiterun. There are no dialogue about Lastelle, the daughter of Lami, and no stage advance.

 

The most strange thing is. Once PC got infected, Kyne's Blessing quest will automaticlly start, and it indeed show up at quest list. But when I want to find more stages information via command "sqs", this quest didn't show up in console line, I didn't saw its quest code.

-----

I don't know if I'm dummy. If anyone know how to fix it, I'll be a lot appreciate it

The dialogues about Lastelle only start when Lami talks to you about her directly, as an Hello topic. 

If you are not using an overhaul of the inside of the shop, you should find a note on the counter in front of Lami asking about her daughter. You can read that note to start.

Is there a way to be able to still wear armor while being infected by a parasite, i like the idea of the mod but don't want it full appeding normal gameplay whenever there's an infection

Maybe using the Device Hider from Devious Devices, although I have not tried it.

This might work, since it's the purpose of the device hider

Oh, thank you so much.

I find the note, the quest finally start as normal.

For the next update of Parasites, I am currently working on fixing the timing issue with Spider Eggs being immediately ejected after infection.

 

As part of that, I am adding a system of thoughts or messages similar to the Bimbo thoughts in Hormones. 

This will allow me to display more immersive messages about the parasites as the player is running, riding, fighting, having sex or just going about daily business.

 

It will come in two flavors.

 

- Third person messages to show the player being fearful of side effects from the parasites, like 'The eggs painfully stretch your abdomen and threaten to burst an any moment.'

- First person messages to show the player eventually accepting or welcoming the changes from the parasites, like 'These eggs feel so good inside me! I can't wait to get more.'

 

The transition between the two is governed by a Pheromone level, which will work directly with Hormones if you have it and still work without as well.

 

If anyone is interested in contributing, I am open for suggestions of messages the player will experience based on each parasite.

The messages have to be relatively short but I can open up for longer, more role play messages if you feel inspired.

 

Right now, I added messages to Spider Eggs and Blackreach Barnacles since that is what my character is wearing at the moment.

 

Send me a PM if you can think of messages you would like to see.

Would it be possible to have a dialogue box pop up at certain points, so you could decide if your character was for or against the parasites?

 

Sort of like this:

You feel the eggs move around inside you.
1) Oooh, that feels strangely good.

2) I've got to get these things out as soon as possible.

 

Just an idea, I understand if this would be more work for you or against your idea for the mod.

It's a good idea but I am currently fixing bugs with the frequency of messages and I don't want to make the mod more complex than it already is at the moment.

I prefer to focus on bug fixes and adding immersion messages and quest stages.

[buttonpop]

the living armor keeps getting stripped in sexlab animations, which is causing issues i think with quest progression
