Now... you are wondering How can we fix this? well... really someone will need to make a DLL that will make the older versions able to use the new range of ESL, and remove the version filter, or adjust it to allow for versions 1.71 plugins.

OK if your using a skyrim version lower than 1.6.1130 use !Star Shadow Coven 1.0.1a as this version is backward compatible!

 

Redid this version in SSEEdit

asked in the wench discord about this this is what someoe told me
 

Q: new ck is not backward compatible it seems
 

A: It can be, but you need the latest build of xEdit from their Discord (just copy and rename xedit.exe and xedit64.exe to sseedit.exe and sseedit64.exe, respectively).

With that, you can change the header version of a plugin from 1.71 to 1.70. There can't be ANY forms in the extended range or you will have problems.

no idea what this means will try finding out after getting some sleep

edit found this online

With the latest Skyrim version 1.6.1130 Bethesda has launched a new feature essentially doubling the range of ESL's. This is great and all except 1 thing... This means all these new ESL's will not work on older games. This is now tested and proven, any plugin that you make using the new Creation kit version, will not work on any older Skyrim AE or SE versions anymore. This was also tested and proven. Here is what I DO KNOW (And tested):

• If you added records on a plugin with the new Creation Kit, resaving it in the old one does NOT fix it.
• And OLD plugin DOES work in the new Skyrim. This IS BACKWARD compatible, but not FORWARD compatible. (Meaning the old plugins work on the new Skyrim, but new plugins do not work on the old Skyrim) 

 

Now... you are wondering How can we fix this? well... really someone will need to make a DLL that will make the older versions able to use the new range of ESL, and remove the version filter, or adjust it to allow for versions 1.71 plugins. But until that day comes, I have discovered a 100% fix.... mostly...

there is a number of ways, I will list the best ones.

• Use VR build or Skyrim 1.59 SE. If you have the VR version of Skyrim, you can use the older versions of the Creation kit, and just use that to make mods for Skyrim SE. This is not perfect, but it is the easiest.  The BSA's and plugins are named the same so as long as you are not editing something really deep that is different in VR vs AE, then you are fine. for example NPC's, Outfits, Weapons, Houses, the simple things, these will all work fine in this manner.
• Create your mods using Xedit only. So far Xedit will make mods fine that will work just fine across all versions. Using Xedit, you can easily make a new plugin and do anything except compile scripts and see where you are putting things in the world at. but there are mods that will get your location in a cell and you can use that, and there is also 3rd party mods that will compile scripts, so all is still possible.
• Lastly... you can just make your mods in the newest creation kit. If you make is ESL, then in Xedit you need to remove the ESL, and recompress, and re-ESL it. Also, change the version number. You can do this by clicking on the header, (HEDR -HEADER) and then just below that is the version. it will say 1.7100000 (Subject to change with time) you just need to change the 1 to a 0, like 1.7000000. you can do this by right clicking it and select edit and manually fix this.

 

Is this relative to the issue ?

Disregard this. I was successful with the new 1.01.A  , everything loaded fine. Though I have one slight issue with Misery (no hands)  I have swapped out meshes/textures with my own. All other characters have no issues , just Misery with no hands. This is after removing all armors , that i see no hands.

 

Thanks for fixing this!!

Something about those white claws , when removed , my game does not like in regards to Misery.

Thank you for stating this new Follower set.  I took a look at it for a bit today.  I started with Misery, her default body is missing hand and feet textures.  I checked Circe and Morgana, both were fine.

 

It could just be me but may want to look at it.  Keep up the good work.

Can confirm it works on 1.5.97

[Wolfen09]

No issues so far on 1.64.  Thanks for what you do magic person, your ability to not only churn these mods out, but provide support on issues, and even help teach a bit is very undervalued and we are happy to have you with us.  after i finish the wench sets, if the desire is still there, i might set my sights on your girls >:)

[RowdyD1313]

While Misery's "makeup glow" isn't really noticeable with those not using ENBs, those that are she gets really rosy faced. I'll fix this so her face no longer glows.  Honestly I don't remember giving her such bright highlights🤔

Yes I reuploaded the mods the other day with a fix for it. Just redownload them.

[RowdyD1313]

So recently I figured out how to have the followers I create use the body that the player has instead of using a standalone body. Textures are still separate they would just use the body shape. You can still change the textures to what you prefer or if your using something other than CBBE/3BA/TBD you'd need to use a texture that is compatible with the body your using.

 

Going forward would you as the player prefer that the followers use the body your using or continue to use the standalone body shape?

For some reason, I'm sure on my end, nothing from this mod shows up in my game.  When I say nothing, I mean I don't even find the esp in my item adder!  Annoying.

[Rabat]

Same problem as Chasm has. Loads up fine into Vortex and shows up in xedit, but nothing from the mod is showing up in game. The version just prior worked absolutely fine so it shouldn't be a load order or conflict issue, unless i'm modding stupid again.

Sorry for the late reply. Yup I see what happened. I'll upload asap. Thanks for the heads up guys.

 

Ok new version is up. 
So what happens is when a mod is now open for ANY reason in the creation kit, it slaps a new "version" number on the mod 1.710+. The "1" after the 7 has to be changed to a 0 for it to be compatible with all versions of skyrim. Stupid I know.  I've triple checked this one before uploading.

just got back on game. Everything's works now. Thanks for the quick repair. And thanks for the explanation on what happened.  Next time I run across this issue now I'll know what the problem could possibly be.

Hi, I love the look of your girls but, being a realist, I'm not a huge fan of monstrously sized boobs  . I can change their default bodies with my own 3BA bodies in their mesh folder in MO2 but, as for their outfit's I don't see an option for that. Is there any chance you can assist me with using a smaller sized mesh for their clothing? 

Thx, Attila

Sure I'll link the 3ba stuff. But I only know manual, not to familiar with MO2 myself. Just build them with the body you prefer then navigate to
 

  data/meshes/DX/necromancer

  Copy the meshes in this folder (easier to just grab them all)

  Then go to;
  data/meshes/!SSC/Armor
  Paste them here and that'll take care of the necromancer robes. Yes to overwrite when asked.

 

  For Sage's outfit, once built navigate to 

  data/meshes/Obincii/ForestAttire

  Once again you can just copy all the meshes here

  Then paste them in

  data/meshes/!SCC/Armor

 

Thats it they'll use your body now.

Had a few requests as to "will my blonde version yuriana, with the glasses, be in any of the mods?"

A: Yes she will be added to Star Shadow Coven here after I'm done the revamp on Maidens of Darkness. I've flipped her hair to the opposite side and of coarse she'll have a different name and all.

Also I'm thinking of renaming SSC to Maidens of the Craft or something to keep with the maiden theme. Any who enjoy the pics!

I'll upload an updated headmesh version in a few hours. Just testing things out. That should help.
