Animal Research: The Insatiable Scholar

[Mr-Bipen]

im having an issue where when she comes up to you to talk to start the quest she force greets me but doesnt say anything or have any options to pick

 

(this is on an existing save but i did nit start the quest or interact with her before)

 

UPDATE: I managed to fix it. It was working on a fresh save and earlier save but i didnt want to start over so I just got the quest id from the working save and console commanded it to start in my main one.

Ah, but I mean I can generate voice files for you guys but they won't be in a format ready to plug and play.  You would have to splice together any disconnected audio and rename each file to the proper filename recognizable by your mod.  I have no way to automate this so it's extremely tedious work to do manually and something I'm not willing to do at the moment (I spent 3 months doing 10k voices already for another mod and I'm burnt out).

 

So if you'd like, I can generate the files to send to you but it will be up to you guys or someone in the community to do the splicing and renaming.  But if you (rightfully) consider this too tedious to do I'll refrain from generating the files.

I had to peek, well eavesdrop... you do nice work. Inflection, tone and timbre are very spot on.

Thanks!  The full pack is xVASynth but I put in the extra effort to make sure the ghost had ghost sound effects and the unique voices were covered (except for the two Daedric entities) because I kinda got sad.

Reload save, but it should also have dialogue to start the quest.

Personally, I'm not in a position to undertake this because I already have too much stuff.

 

If someone is willing, I don't see a problem.

In mid-game also should work... But yes you can try in this way.

Very understandable.  It is extremely tedious to do manually.  Makes me want to take up programming just to see if there is anything I can do to automate the process.  So then it's up to someone in the forums if they want to take up the mantle =P.

It would be easier if the whole dialogues were in one instead of being divided into several pieces.

I concur but that is a different kind of tediousness.

 

What I would need is for someone to copy the dialogue text from each line in "Beast.txt" into "Text_audio_map.txt" sequentially.  And while they're at it, they can also copy the file paths from "Beast.txt" to "Command.txt" also sequentially or at least mapping the Audio N to the lines generated in the audio map.  I went ahead and did the first 5 out of the 860 lines as an example.

 

If someone would do this, then I can generate the dialogue as a single entry and would not need to audio splice and I could rename the files into their appropriate file paths and generate lip and fuz files as well.

I'm fairly sure this type of thing could be easily automated as it's just moving text from one file to another but I know nothing about programming.

Speaking of creator interest, I started generating voices for your mod but as your main character has over 860 lines of dialogue, I realized it would make more sense if I asked you if this was something you wanted first.  I don't have the luxury of mainstream generators and unfortunately, the way I do it breaks dialogue into individual sentences such that of your original 860 lines of dialogue, I'll generate 1300 lines which will then have to be spliced together with Audacity and renamed to fit your dialogue file path.  It's very tedious work that I wish could be automated but I'm not a programmer.

 

I generated the 1st 30 lines of dialogue for you which was broken up into 44 parts and I enclosed the csv so you'll know how they're supposed to be named in the file path.  If you like, I can continue with the project and send you the entire 1300 lines of generated audio for you to go through if you want to use it but I won't be splicing or renaming it myself.  If you want instead, I can send you the template csv where you can copy each line of your dialogue over so the program generates each line without breaking it up and a command script to rename the generated files appropriately.  This will bypass the need to splice the audio but is tedious in a different way.

I would vote for the second method. I think dealing with csv files will be a lot easier than splicing and renaming audio.

Personally, I don't see a problem with you doing a voice project but I'm a contributor mod. Also @Gristle could comment on this too what he thinks.

And so back to me, as a mod page you could safely give as ‘Animal Research: The Insatiable Scholar - Tirwin Voice replacer.

 

I have listened to some sound files and they sound good. Also I think you would find interest among people looking less for a robot and more for a person with emotions.

I think the voice files sound good as well. I'm sure I can figure out some way to export the dialogue lines from xEdit into a csv file. But @killer905 has been making the xVASynth audio, so I'll have to defer to him on renaming and packaging up the resulting audio files.

I create a script for this so no longer copy paste for him.

hmmm, huh? 

 

I made a script that does some of the things like converting from one format to another. Have it uploaded as a mod and whoever wants it will use his version :3

[Hakuna_Matata]

I'm not quite sure why people should play this mod, to be honest.

 

It gives you books that make it sound like you'll get a spell or power to tame animals but you don't.

It's basically a sequence of watching someone else have sex with animals -- once.

Then you can ask her to do it again, or you can have sex with the animal once.

That's it. Next animal.

 

If you came to the mod expecting that you'd be able to trigger scenes with animals on demand, you will be disappointed.

I love this mod, unlike some...

I have an issue with "Double Trouble" at Grey Winter Watch, when we (Tirwin & player) enter we have a conversation, go with to start scene, Trolls just stand there after they drop down until a point where they start attacking.

Not sure what to do, reloaded twice with the  same effect.

I personally think it is the location (Grey Winter Watch) for some reason, I had trouble with the Bear there too, and I have no world mods changing that cell.

I have a few observations to this point, The mod ran better this Version, pleased at the smoothness of it all so far, anyway there has been a couple of times fighting bandits, forsworn, critters that Tirwin has struck Ragnar with her ice spikes and the Ragnar attacks Tirwin and they fight till one is knocked down, when they revive they start all over again...just a report nothing else.

About Ragnar, when we get him and go back to Riisaad talk to Tirwin, I think, (for what it's worth) player should be able to say, "if you have sex with him here I will too" to make her more comfortable... 

Question, not a complaint...why is she so slow?

I do not run unless I want to get ahead to clear out any enemies, but just at a fast walk (I use a Controller) she is constantly telling me to slow down, my thought is if she was auto added to Nethers follower framework one could adjust her follow distance. I see in the dialogue that she can be added but in my exp this can break some AI packages so I have learned not to do that.

 

I just want you both to know how much fun I am having with this mod, Thank You both for your time, effort, & sharing this work. 

      

 

EDIT; I do use one with nature, if that could be an issue.

I always think of something after I've posted...

It would be nice to be able to adopt Ragnar.

Maybe Tirwin says she does not have a good place to keep him and wants the player to adopt him.

I could assign her to one of my player homes and he would stay there, don't know your future plans, maybe she will depart for home who knows.

Thanks!

There are mods that already do this (someone already provided a link), but at the end of the mod you can give a ‘spell’ to be able to make a creature/machine not aggro towards you, but jump on you (sex) whether you want it to or not.

PC what gender is Male or Female? generally the moment Tiorwin reaches the tree with her, the Trolls ‘2’ jump off the cliff and come towards you. The first scene if it's female should be with PC/troll and Tirwin/ Troll. Second scene only with Tirwin. After this second sex scene they will start to be aggressive towards you and you must kill them.

 

I tested it, the problems you describe were not there. Maybe you have missing animations from the trolls?

In my case, when Trwin hit Ragnar with an ice spike, Ragnar just bit her and she didn't do anything about it, but the fight was over. But i think this need fix in next version

Interesting idea, but it would, in my opinion, make sense ONLY as a PC female tried sex with a wolf. But the Khajiit want to punish her race blandly that they call them dirty thieves. But then again, it would make extra sense if the PC thespian were a High Elf.

Academics are generally not athletic like an adventurer. And so you have to ask @Gristle why.

If you're interested in testing, you can see what the behaviour would be after importing into the NFF.

We'll see, but at the moment Ragnar likes Tirwin better and that's why he follows her rather than PC.

@Gristle I am doing double Trouble, Trolls are not acting right, one goes red on dropping down when Tirwin's hair is up, If I ask her to put her hair down before scene they just walk around till they go aggro.

Can you provide a setstage for me to get this scene started or completed?

Have the proper anim packs, have a Female player, have had no issues till now, Thanks.

Will show you the quest ID's in the mod as Killer905 mentioned.  I'm lazy and not afraid to load anything into CK or SeEdit to double-check, usually looking for the conditions etc...

[kamithemoon]

For funsies, could you make Tirwin a super follower and give her quest and location commentary?  I think it would be kinda fun to take her on adventures and perhaps give her a feature where animal types she's sexed once are no longer hostile if she's in your party and will instead attempt to gangbang her leaving you to deal with any men or mer or other monsters.  Hrm, maybe give her a version of the spriggan command animal ability.
