Sexlab fatal error - Failed to load actor to thread.

[Anonmon]

So I'm experiencing an issue with Sexlab animations not playing after completing the prerequisites to trigger them. I've been troubleshooting them already in this topic:

 and was asked to try again here.

Here's the screenshot of the error I get in the console whenever I attempt to start a sexlab scene:


Everything is up to date and the load order looks good, FNIS is ran, and I've tried the few solutions I could find from google. The linked thread details everything else I've tried so far.

Right now, I'm about to try and deactivate sexlab and all associated mods. Then start another new game, and load each mod individually to see if that works.

First of all, if you have that SexLab plus mod, remove it.

 

Secondly, post or analyze the Papyrus log from a session where you tried to start a scene. SL has a tendency to log the reason *why* something didn't work, which is rare in software these days.

For some reason, Sexlab wasn't letting me change my character's assigned gender from Female to Male without P+.
I'm trying to play as a futa character, so I kind of need that function to work.

Well P+ as far as I know breaks most AddActor functions and removes a bunch of standard SL functions. That leaves 2 options that I can see:

1. Remove it to restore default SL functionality, such as playing sex scenes.
2. Keep it, and figure out if you need a special or specific version of SL (and *all* associated SL mods) for it to function properly.

there are some guides I can find, and a link to GenderBender

Alright, so I removed P+ entirely and downloaded Gender Bender then started a new game.
Still can't change from Female to Male in the Sexlab MCM, but Gender Bender seems to be working properly as far as I can tell.

I loaded up the game and tried to start a scene with a couple of nearby npcs. The error no longer appears in the console, but the scenes still don't play.

Here's the papyrus log:

In case anyone better at deciphering this than me can figure it out before I go ahead and do the turn everything off and enable one by one strat.

It happens with any npc, not just that one.
Any idea how to fix it?

Children are not allowed in sex scenes.

That was an old lady character. If you scroll up more on that papyrus log you'll see when I tried it on a wench. Same error. Lilith was the next closest npc, so I tried it on her as well.

Oh, is my custom race being read as a child for some reason? I'm using a Satyress. I found this thread that had the same issue:

Wait, do I need to uninstall Cum Overlays? Is that the problem?

[Anonmon]

Holy shit, that was actually it!

Sexlab Cum Overlays Entended overwrites the Actor Library. It was borking Sexlab entirely because it was out of date. I updated the mod and now everything works.

Thank you everyone that helped me get to here.
