@Lazy Palm Just thought of something else interesting, as the enslavement progresses would the character's dreams change if so? Might be worth optionally having a pack of dreams for Idrinth's Dream Framework (Idrinth's Dream Framework at Skyrim Special Edition Nexus - Mods and Community).

That is an interesting idea.  I don’t really track a submission score currently, but I am working on some optional “free me” mechanics in 0.5 that would better accommodate something like that.

 

I had been meaning to get a 0.4.?? update on here, but just hit a wall with that code base so been chugging away at 0.5.  No ETA yet though.

Dear @Lazy Palm, 

 

You know "Beeing Female NG"?  It's a must have for me, cuz it's essential to the female experience - Makes a woman more than just a reskin of the male protagonist.

 

Now, wouldn't it be hot, if one could add a "revoke female priveledges" function to rules/punishments, where contraception fluids, condoms and sanitary napkins are confiscated (as a rule toggle)  or as long as there are remaining punishment points? 

 

Imagine there is a naked rule, that applies to menstruating (to humiliate the sub) - and washing out sperm can be set as an infraction (with soft dependancies on Beeing Female NG, and "Fill her up").  This has the effect of causing the sub to wear a chastity belt with a plug to prevent cum leakage, to avoid infractions. It's deliciously depraved, especially since taking contraception fluid while inflated becomes a loop. The way out of this predicament would be to wait until the body itself absorbs the sperm (free protein). 

 

Finally, to close the loop, male doms can have the option of using vaginal sex as a punishment on female subs. 

 

Just a dirty/degenerate thought/request.  

 

 

P.s. What's the difference between Binding Core.esl, binding.esl and binding.esm? 

 

I use binding.esl cuz core sounds basic, and binding.esm can mess up a save, if index gets moved.  But functionality wise, are the pros and cons to using the ESM?

Binding Core is just an empty plugin that's there to preserve people's LO's if the migrated from an earlier version. It can be disabled safely if starting fresh.
Binding.esl was the attempt to make Binding a light plugin, turns out CK makes it a nightmare. So LazyPalm started to migrate everything back to an esm. Binding v0.5 will only have the esm (and most likely require a new game). I'm not 100% sure if the esm is in use in the current v0.4x versions ... possibly for something already?

Also, why should an esm have more potential to mess up a save than an esp? If anything my understanding of the game engine suggests the opposite. It's also never the plugins that cause a mess, but some scripts that directly address a form in a plugin AND that get backed into the save. You will need a save cleaner for that, provided you can even load the save to make a new one to be cleaned.
That said while it is a common conception I could never track a problem back to the plugin order getting changed, as long as no plugin had been added or removed (ok actually only ever found problems after removal). I still tend to freeze my LO's for playthroughs I care about, but I experiment a lot after I'm done with a LO and actual problems or the dreaded "this save game is corrupt and can not be loaded" only ever appeared in combination with removing a plugin entirely.
