Minor issues with camera, stability, and strapons


Recommended Posts

I just finished cleaning the Lovers out of my Oblivion install to replace it with updated mod versions, as I should have some time ago because as I've just discovered, every second I was missing out on LAPF was a second wasted. I'm probably not quite the mod user I like to think I am though, so I've run afoul of some difficulty. In order from most to least likely to be easily solvable, my problems are as follows.

 

Strapons behave oddly. When stripping for sex begins and a female aggressor is assigned her penis mesh, she gets the strapon like she should. When penetration begins, the strapon vanishes and she gets a futa dick. When she's finished and stands up, she switches back to the strapon for a moment (males during this time display a flaccid penis instead, which makes sense) before she puts her pants on. My guess is that LAPF either handles penetration differently than just mashing two models together, or at the very least has its own penis mesh in lieu of permanent BBB-style penis bones. Is there a currently functioning strapon mesh for LAPF? (And if so, is that likely what I have only I somehow managed to install it wrong?)

 

Second, whenever sex begins or ends anywhere in my general vicinity, I switch to third person camera. Which makes a modicum of sense if my character is involved, but it happens even when he or she is not. It doesn't go so far as to toggle the free-floating camera like it does when my character is actually having sex, but I can also always tell when RaperS has triggered on someone else in the cell I'm in when I suddenly pop into third person view. I'm not locked in there and can just press R at any time to go back to first person, but since I typically run with RaperS cranked fairly high up, it gets bothersome when Crowded Roads facilitates a brawl-orgy.

 

Lastly, I'm experiencing some pretty gnarly stability issues. My install has always been pretty crashy, but lately my typical "save once or twice on the road between Skingrad and the Imperial City just to be safe" has mutated into something more akin to "save every cell or two or any time anything cool happens because this session is not long for the world." I suspect this has less to do with Lovers than it does with the two hundred odd other unrelated mods I roll with (I apologize in advance for my overpopulated load order), but a lot of you ladies and gents are a lot brighter than me, so with any luck I've missed something the collective you won't.

I've run it through BOSS and then past the list here, deferring to readmes where applicable, and with the possible exception of the clump between Bravil Underground and SetBody (which I just have no idea what to do with), it seems okay. The races and whatnots below the Bashed patch seem an obvious candidate for errors, but aside from being hacky conglomerations of races and clothes, they're okay. Stuff unfortunately doesn't get any better without 'em.

 

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer me!

The strapon problem is very clearly an installation mistake. The rest are probably load order issues. put simply, you put the wrong files in the wrong folders.

Since I don't use most of your mods, I might as well leave it to someone else who does have experience with them to help you.

The LAPF does not support 3rd party strap-ons.  They will always disappear if you have the attacking woman grows penis option on, as lovers swaps out the entire lowerbody.  You have several choices:

 

1.  Change the ini file to use the strap-on mesh.  This solution has more bad points than good.  

A.  The good:  When sex begins and the female is in the offensive position, they will automatically use a strap-on (mesh comes as part of the LAPF).

B.  The bad:  This effects men as well so they will have a strap-on during sex.

                      There is no way to use both the futa dick and the strap-on without exiting the game and changing the ini file.

                      You have to change the ini files of EACH animation (140 plus of them) to make this happen.

 

2. Option two.  Replace the futa cock mesh (overwrite it) with the female strap-on mesh (make sure you back up the futa mesh somewhere in case you want to switch back in the future).

A.  The good:  Now all females in the offensive position will automatically get a strap-on during sex.  

This does not effect males at all.

You do not have to alter the ini files of the animations.

B  The bad:  You will not see any futa cocks unless you change the meshes back out.

(This would be my recommended option depending on what body plugin you use)

 

3.  Option 3 - disable the attacking woman grows a penis option in the lovers settings.  

A.  The good:  Lovers not attempt to switchout the female lowerbody.

B.  The bad:  Unless you weight paint your strap-on's and parent them to the LAPF skeleton then the strap-on won't line up worth a shit during animations.

(As an option you could use the LAPF strap-on dick and delete all the rest and make a custom strap-on that will be animated so you can benefit from the LAPF animations).

 

 

Lovers works with 3rd party.  The commands specifically trigger this and that is what you are seeing.  There are "hacks" to use lovers in 1st person but they are not stable and thus not recommended.   Sucks but there is no support for all the custom camera stuff that is out there.  It would be a full time job trying to keep up with it.

 

 

As to your load order:

I recommend you switch to the recommended Roberts v52 (see the install instructions for the LAPF).  You are currently running v4.

 

If you want to gain some stability back then I recommend you dump the following:

Pose mods are notorious for having dirty edits and jacking things up.  CM partners isn't much better.   Grab MCS (mad companionship spells) from the non-adult section instead.

Thanks and thanks! Also, evidently I'm not as good at words as I thought too. Not to worry.

 

As for the strapons, I had a mesh replacer, but evidently it was either replacing the wrong mesh or I just screwed it up somehow. I'll prod at that later tonight and now that I at least know I'm the one at fault I'm sure I'll figure it out. The replacer I have worked fine in prior versions, so I figured I'd ask and make sure LAPF didn't require a particular weirdo mesh or what-have-you.

 

The camera woes I evidently just didn't communicate very well. I get that Lovers doesn't co-operate with a first person camera when the player is involved with sex. That part works great; I start sex, camera pops out to free-flying mode, and everything is wonderful. The problem is that that's happening even when sex that doesn't involve me starts. For instance, a guard attacks a bandit and RaperS triggers sex. As soon as they start having sex, even though I'm not involved, my camera pops out to third person anyway.

 

I had no idea Roberts had been updated recently, so I'll definitely snag that and try disabling my pose and companion mods and see if that gets me some stability back. Thanks for the suggestions!

The LAPF does require a particular mesh for the animations to work properly.  In other words you do need to either use the female futa or the female dildo mesh as those meshes have an "animated" dick.  What I mean by this is that the dick has been weight painted and had bones added to it.  This allows the animation to control the dick itself and it can bend just like an arm during sex.  This helps the dick move around with the rest of the animation and not just be a static point in one direction deal like in previous versions of lovers.  Now a dick can bend to do down someone's throat and not poke out the back of their head and so on.

 

As to the camera, again, lovers runs scripts to FORCE the 3rd person camera to happen and it doesn't matter if the PC is involved in sex or not.  This is due to Lovers never having been set up to handle 1st person cameras.  1st person cameras are something that is fairly new, where as the core of LPK is very old.  It is something you are probably just going to have to learn to live with, as there is no one that I know who is willing to spend the next 6 or 8 months investigating and re-writing all the core scripts for Lovers.  Sorry.

 

Best of luck to you on getting your game stabilized.   ;)

Well that's... peculiar, for lack of a better word. I've been through three or four revisions of Lovers prior to this one and in none of them has the camera been jumpy like that. Also, once I got strapons actually functioning properly (which took more time than I particularly care to admit), my camera issues went from all the time to only sometimes. I'm genuinely perplexed now, even more so since absolutely nothing I've done should have had anything even remotely to do with camera perspectives.

 

As for the rest of it though, strapons are working fine now, and since I canned CM partners for MCS, I'm crashing way less too. Thanks and thanks again!
