The first version of SexoutStruggle can be found here (with a revised version of SexoutSexAssault that can use this mod).

 

 

 

 

I am working on my first mod for New Vegas which will be called "Sexout Struggle".
Sexout Struggle will determine if the rapist succeeds by triggering a struggle between the rapist and the victim.

I'll need some help as I'm new to modding New Vegas, (I'm pretty self sufficient, I don't need complete assistance but just a little help to fix a few blocking points).

First, I searched if this mod did not already exist...
And I just found a roadmap here https://www.loverslab.com/topic/3675-struggling-before-rape-i-have-a-roadmap/

But no mod released

So I created some scripts that give a way for the player to stuggle to escape her rapist. It works very well but it's still very basic and I would like to improve it.

Currently, my first attempt looks like this (without the green/red bar):

 

 

 

Here the player has 2,3 seconds to right-click 10 times (So if the player character is surprised there is a big chance that she doesn't have enough reflexes and fails).

*If the player fails, the rape animation starts.
*If the player succeeds, the rapist is thrown a few meters away from the player and stops harassing for 30s (I will add a random calculation that will determine if the rapist stops harassing or not and for how long; the charisma of the player will also be taken into account, the more "attractive" the player is the more the rapist will stay harassing).

 

Eventually I would like my mod to have a green/red struggle bar (like on the picture -> I drew it with "paint")

The red bar will increase progressively and the player will have to press a (configurable) key quickly to struggle. The strength difference between the player and the rapist will influence the progression of the bar (with probably a malus if the victim is female and the rapist a male, and vice versa).

 

If I manage to do this, I will add the player's exhaustion by adding the "stamina" mod from fallout2AM. (As soon as the stamina of the player will go below 70% (maybe configurable), the more the stamina will decrease and the more difficult the progression of the green bar will be (I'd like the malus not to be linear)

 

Next, I will be looking for someone to create 1 or more struggle animations that I will center on the player when the struggle bar appears.

 

 

 

POINTS WHERE I NEED HELP :

- Create a simple UI bar and move it up or down (I haven't found anything about this, no tutorials, and looking at mods like "stamina" I couldn't even figure out how to display my own bar. I think we should use 2 bars (a green one and a red one that overlays the green one, or vice versa).
If you have any clue how to display even one bar, that would be a good step forward. [SOLVED]

 

- If you have any clue on how to make this mod compatible with other mods that already have built-in chances to escape the rapist like Sexout SexAssault or that have scripts that undress/rob the player before starting the sex scene. [CONSIDERED SOLVED]
In the image above, I'm using the SexAssault mod and I had to inhibit part of the SexAstalkerScript and add some modifications to make the struggle work properly.

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT :

 

Okay...

 

For those like me who don't know how to create a UI bar, there is a plugin that does the job very easily => SUP NVSE (I haven't tested it yet but it looks really easy).
That so bad it took me so long to find it. This plugin tells that the classic way would be to create XML files... (I don't know more because I'll test this plugin before looking for these XML files...).

 

So I can consider the 1st point solved
For the 2nd point, at first I think that my mod will be just a plugin for SexAssault (as this mod has been abandoned by its author and has no successor, I wont' be bothered with possible updates)

I found some solutions

The mod will be available in beta test soon.

 

 

Is it better to delete and redo the first page or to keep this topic intact and create another one elsewhere?

Heck yeah, good to see people still active in the FNV/3 modding. I hope this project works.

Fallout New Vegas has been needing some content badly, this is awesome to see! Keep it up
