I took a more restrictive approach in order to prevent "runaway" immodesty, which would have defeated the purpose of the feature. I will look into alternatives, but I don't want you to be able to just strip naked and gain immodesty right away either. It's supposed to be more of a "frog in boiling water" approach. Fair enough. I was testing with C5Kev's micro-bikini, so...not really a valid starting point by that philosophy. I wasn't really planning on using that long term. I guess I'll find out how much I like the modesty feature in casual play, but I think my concern is still valid when looking at users' actual load orders. How many non-vanilla outfits do we have? How many are in loot tables? Is there a smooth curve of revealing clothing? The answers to these questions have big effects on what this mod even does. Some users may not even be able to go past level 2 without stripping naked. I'm not even sure if this a criticism or just an observation at this point. I love the ideas here though and hopefully we get some more mods down the line that use the features you have here. 1

This is quite valid, and something I hadn't fully considered. It's easy as a mod developer to only consider the mods you use yourself and forget that others exist. Likewise, it's also hard to plan for every other potential mod without making the feature too generalized and watered down, though such a watered down variant may be necessary to even be properly functional for some people. I have an idea in mind for a "simplicity" toggle which will at least make it possible to progress/regress in every scenario. However, you will get a "debuff" to the speed you gain immodesty if you're not in the "sweet spot" for your current rank. Perhaps that's how it should be by default instead? Regardless, this is valuable feedback. Thank you Edited July 9, 2025 by NymphoElf
Arkbar. Posted July 10, 2025 Posted July 10, 2025 8 hours ago, icdtdave said: I'm not a fan of the progression chart to go up ranks. Right now it kinda seems like I need to write down or memorize that chart because it requires very specific conditions, for example from level 1 to 2 is only fulfilled by showing underwear. Seems pretty restrictive to not count more extreme outfits toward your progression. I actually prefer it like that. The point of the modesty faction is that the player gradually eases into more revealing outfits. Where gradually is the key part. Logically makes more sense. Imagine a modest girl thats uncomforable even with the idea of wearing a bikini, being thrown out naked, she will be so distraught that she will never be at ease with being naked in public. The same girl in the beach, having to wear a bikini, becomes comfortable doing so, now she will be more open to more daring outfits, but without learning to wear bikini first is not possible. Also is not as restrictive as you think. To progress from modest to reasonable, you have to show a bra, incidentally there is no bottom check, meaning you could even be bottomless and still progress. (Maybe that's a bug) But nevertheless the intention is that you could wear full bikini and progress no issues from modest to relaxed ( from 0to2) Then you can progress from relaxed to tease (4) by just wearing any no cover top/bottom. The only stricter check is from tease to brazen, where you must be topless but not bottomless. Shameless is just naked 1

(Maybe that's a bug) That is a bug. I'm working on a revamped system that tracks Top and Bottom modesty separately. Maybe that will help bridge the gap, because I understand the original concern. Some people may not be playing with enough Skimpy outfits installed to obtain every possible nudity state, therefore making progressing to certain ranks impossible. However, I'm still going to make the system be as realistic as possible. Using your same example, that shy girl will eventually get over her embarrassment if she's forced to be naked for a long enough time. It will just take longer than it otherwise would have. I'll keep the strict system as an option for those who want/like it though.
Arkbar. Posted July 10, 2025 Posted July 10, 2025 Indeed is possible not every outfit combination exists to properly progress across every stage, or even if it exists only 1 outfit could allow the progression, so some users may be stuck. Another thing I also noticed while double checking the code is that the progression is deliberate, but the regression is not. Meaning that if the player is shameless and equips a vanilla armor will regress. I assumed this is not a bug. 1 hour ago, NymphoElf said: I'm working on a revamped system that tracks Top and Bottom modesty separately. Even if you are tracking top/bottom modesty separately, will the existing modesty faction ranks still be the same ? if not, let me know so I can prepare a patch before hand. I've been thinking about the progression/nudity factions for the most part there are "3 tracks" depending on the different nudity levels 1- Chests: Covered -> Showing bra -> Showing boobs -> topless -> Naked 2- Bottom Covered -> Showing underwear -> Showing genitals -> Bottomless -> Naked 3- Ass covered -> Showing ass -> Bottomless -> Naked The modesty faction only cares about chest/bottom coverage, but no ass (due to it's inherent relation with DFFM, all this feels like there is something there to optimize, but from the top of my head I cannot point it, like there should be a top exposure faction, a bottom exposure faction, and and ass exposure faction and maybe a naked faction, that way the check if for the faction rank only, but I'm not sure what do you think ? Since you are talking about improvements: Can I request an API for maximum modesty faction level ? (by default is 6/7). I'm thinking of making a mod that provides buffs and debuffs based on modesty faction and exposure, It's very early stage, so I'm barely at the planning stage, but in my head the full progression should be capped by perks so you need to spend perk points to be able to reach the shameless stage, hence an API would be useful.

DFFMA doesn't have a butt/ass covering animation, so there's no use for tracking that right now. I supposed it could still be implemented, but it would be more difficult to properly test than the others. Additionally, Nude is simply the combination of Topless and Bottomless in most scenarios. It's exceedingly rare to be both Topless and Bottomless without also being Nude. Therefore Nude is pretty much pointless to track separately for Modesty. If you're comfortable being both Topless and Bottomless, then suddenly not being comfortable when you're Nude doesn't make any sense. 31 minutes ago, Arkbar. said: Can I request an API for maximum modesty faction level ?

Yes, I believe implementing an API at this stage is reasonable. I will begin working on that when I can.

If you're comfortable being both Topless and Bottomless, then suddenly not being comfortable when you're Nude doesn't make any sense. I understand that, I was just "thinking aloud" over your described "rewrite" and if there is a way to make it easier to track the nudity conditions both for AND and for the modesty progression. Instead of having one faction for each possible condition (AND_nude, AND_show_chest, and_show_bra, etc), it might be easier to implement/debug to have less factions AND_NUDE, AND_TOP, AND_BOTTOM, AND_ASS therefore you can be AND_NUDE = 0,1 If AND_NUDE==0, then you can check the other options. AND_TOP = {Covered=0, Show_Bra =1, Show_Boobs = 2, Topless = 3} AND_Bottom = {Covered=0, Show_panties =1, Show_genitals = 2, Bottomless = 3} AND_ASS = {Covered = 0, Show_ass = 1} That way, to check if it makes sense to progress from relaxed->Comfortable the condition becomes AND_NUDE == 0 && (AND_TOP == 2 && AND_BOTTOM ==1) /// Strict mode AND_NUDE == 1 || AND_TOP >=2 && AND_BOTTOM >=1 // simple mode As I mentioned It's just an idea, not fully fleshed out (is your mod after all), and it might introduce a breaking change (Although legacy factions can just be AND_SHOW_BRA = (AND_TOP==1)) 1
StrayHALO_MAN Posted July 11, 2025 Posted July 11, 2025 Why did you get rid of Baka Keywords? I used to use B.o.o.b.i.e.s to distribute keywords with this mod and now I can't.

You have a point, but is not even enough to keep those keywords, if you don't want to use and keywords you can just add a simple kid file. Something like baja_and_kid. And do Keyword=and_hotpants | SLA_hotpants or something like that, Sorry I'm not at my PC and can't provide a good example. But the idea is Similar to how the boobies file handle the bikini license for high heels. Just check the optional file for how its done and slap a few keywords accordingly. I won't do it, because baka keywords are inadequate for and. Note that this is a general issue, think for example of Pash and caekd, neither and, nor baka keywords are adequate for it Edited July 11, 2025 by Arkbar. 1

Arkbar made a good point, I could make the SLA keywords equal the AND ones in keyword distributor and that would get the job done. And btw I don't use skimpy armor, I use modular armor so having both SLA_ArmorTop and bottoms both equipped will not raise arousal, only if I am missing one or the other.

I use that same patch hub, as it distributes SLA Keywords to a lot of armor/clothing mods that I use in my game. While I don't use all of them, the ones I do have I have edited the KID files to also distribute the necessary AND keywords - a simple task of copy/paste editing using Notepad++ and changing the keyword in the newly added line. 1
Arkbar. Posted July 13, 2025 Posted July 13, 2025 Not exactly what I meant. I said that you can use Keyword = and_keyword|armor|baka_keyword This adds an and keyword to all items that have that baka keyword. This is a mediocre solution though, because baka keywords are inadequate for AND, and some items may have more than 1 baka keyword, which could introduce conflicting AND keywords But that would reproduce the old support 1

Björnus Posted July 23, 2025 Posted July 23, 2025 First of all, awesome mod! I think I might have found a bug/compatibility issue with DD though. When I tried adding a keyword to a DeviousDevice via the keyword editor in OSLAroused, it did not register in AND (verified by checking in MCM Menu). So first I thought this might have been an issue with using OSL Aroused. Therefore I tried creating a custom KID file, to see if it works that way: Keyword = AND_Thong|Armor|*Chastity Belt Keyword = AND_Thong|Armor|Miner's Clothes Keyword = AND_Bra|Armor|*Chastity Bra Keyword = AND_ChestCurtain|Armor|Copper and Moonstone Circlet I could verify via the OSLAroused keyword editor, that this KID file worked. I also defined some other items for testing in the KID file, which were correctly handled by AND. However for DD items the issue persisted: OSL shows these items have the keywords attached, but AND seemingly can't process them. I have tried with DDs from just DD, Cursed loot and unforgiving devices, but all show the same behaviour. I have also tried moving the mod to the start and end of the load-order (to make sure nothing is being overwritten), but to no avail. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone know what causes this or found a workaround?
NymphoElf Posted July 23, 2025 Author Posted July 23, 2025 (edited) @Björnus - Devious Devices has a complicated equipment setup. There's an Inventory Object and a Scripted Object for each device (such as Bras, Belts, etc). When you activate the Inventory Object, it equips the Scripted Object. (If I'm understanding how DD works properly) AND only sees/processes equipped objects. So I believe your issue is due to the Inventory Object having the keyword but the actual equipped object not having it. Could you perhaps try the Devious Devices KID file posted in the KID File Share? I believe theirs works properly. Edited July 23, 2025 by NymphoElf 1

I did a quick test with the file from the fileshare, but could not get it to work from the get-go. But knowing what likely causes the issues I have some suspicions on what could be the reason for it still not working on my end. I'll try verifying those and see where that get's me 1

It's not about AND finding the ini file, it's about KID finding the ini file. KID needs the ini file to be in the Data folder. Pretty sure you can't put it in a sub-folder. AND doesn't need an ini file. It only needs keywords to exist on the items you wear in-game. KID is simply the method I recommend for applying those keywords. As long as the keywords get applied to your armor/clothes, it doesn't matter what method you use. Edited July 28, 2025 by NymphoElf
