Just an update on how it's going.

 

I believe I figured out why Captured Dreams and Devious Devices weren't working. I think installing it through NMM doesn't fully install all the assets, so I just installed it manually.

 

Right now though I am running into an issue with infinite load screens whenever I try to go outside. All assets in Captured Dreams and Devious Devices work within indoor environments, e.g. The Bannered Mare. I got there by teleporting with Alternative Start, but any attempt to go outside of the in results in my disk usage for Skyrim to go to 0% in task manager.

 

I have attached the Papyrus log which I am having trouble interpreting.

 

I think the issue either lies with how I manually installed Captured Dreams or Devious Devices, or me manually installing XAZ Prison Overhaul or XAZ Prison Overhaul Patch. Before the original overhaul resulted in crashes.

 

I hope someone could help me interpret the Papyrus log to see specifically why I am getting infinite load screens when trying to travel outside.

 

Thanks.

 

Edit: Even more details if it helps. I've ran FNIS, LOOT, and Bodyslide multiple times to make sure that they work and nothing from there reports suggest that the problem is there.

The last things in the log are from DD (much of the end of the log is from DD but nothing out of the ordinary but there was a lot of activity leading up to it so it may not have finished):

Quote

[03/25/2019 - 03:46:27AM] [Zad]: OnEquipped(asdf: )
[03/25/2019 - 03:46:27AM] [Zad]: Sending device event DeviceEquippedBelt(asdf:1)
[03/25/2019 - 03:46:27AM] [Zad]: SyncInventory(): Equipping Belt.
[03/25/2019 - 03:46:27AM] [Zad]: original exposure rate was 2.000000. Setting to 3.000000.
[03/25/2019 - 03:46:27AM] [Zad]: CorsetMagic(): No corset equipped, done.

Since there is no freezing/thawing of the VM messages (system stopping/starting) my first suggestion is an ini edit to give scripts more time to run (particularly during load screens). From the log these are your current settings in question:

Quote

fUpdateBudgetMS=1.2
fExtraTaskletBudgetMS=1.2
fPostLoadUpdateTimeMS=500.0

Pretty much standard.

 

These are the settings I use currently:

Quote

fUpdateBudgetMS=1.8
fExtraTaskletBudgetMS=2.0
fPostLoadUpdateTimeMS=1000.0

This gives scripts more time to run but you will likely see a bit longer loading times but don't have any issues with infinite loading screens (even running a ugrids of 9). You can try increasing to half way to these values from yours first and see if that makes a difference (last line in particular as that is for the scripts to run after loading an area), I have had a few times where the loading screen stalls but alt-tabbing out and back in and clicking on the game screen has gotten it running again 99% of the time (I have the same issue with FO4 and that trick works as well).

 

 

Let me know how things go with this.

Heya

 

I just installed this mod, and I'm ran for nearly tow hours around the saw mill location. I don't find the shop.

Beside that, when I look at the MCM, I don't see thecaptured Dreams Menu. But my installation on NMM was ok.

 

Can someone help me please ?

Have you checked if the esp is activated? NMM sometimes forgets to do this.

I have heard of people not getting the MCM menu but never the shop being missing.

1 - make sure the esp is active (I know this is very basic but it happens)

         use   help  CDx   in the console, if nothing comes up (especially quests) then the esp is definitely NOT active

2 - make sure that there are no other mods that overwrite that location (even then most that do have assets from both mods there)

 

 

Move the esp towards the bottom of your load order and make sure it was activated properly by your mod installer.

[Syssiah]

Heya

 

1-I never used the console. Can you tell me exactly what to type ? 

 

2- Same question, what esp file am I looking for ? And how to be sure it has not been overwriten ?

 

 

"Move the esp towards the bottom of your load order and make sure it was activated properly by your mod installer."

 

-> I don't understand how to do that and where ?

 

Sorry, but I'm very new to SKYRIM AND MODS.

In NMM, you will notice there are two tabs near the top of the window. One says "Mods", which is where you install mods and usually this one is open. The other one says "Plugins". Open this one. You will see a list of files with little boxes with checkmarks next to it. See if the box next to "Captured Dreams.esp" is checked, if not click on it to activate the mod. NMM sometimes forgets to do it automatically. To move the mod down the load order, click on it and use the arrow icons on the left side of the screen. Check the screenshot below, it's with Fallout 4 (I don't have Skyrim installed right now) but works the same as with Skyrim.

Thanks alot! it worked

Hey, I've been having some issues with item removal. When I ask Master about removing things it always comes up as saying that nothing is equipped on me.

More pressingly, I just did a delivery quest and she won't remove the CD belt and collar. She says she will but then nothing happens. I still get payment but the devices stay on.

Any advice/ways around this?

Quest devices that don't get removed can be removed via the MCM menu, the option is on the right side of the 'Player' page. Quest items will show up as 'Unremovable' items when it lists what is found in the notifications area (upper left corner of the screen) shortly before being given the itemized list of removable items and the cost (if any are removable).

[SafyreStorme]

Hi there. I was having issues with the Free Sample items not being removed at the end of the quest. After becoming frustrated, I removed the Captured Dreams mod and saw that the devices were no longer equipped or in my inventory. Three dungeons and six quests later, I realized that I still have debuffs from wearing a chastity bra, but I had no such thing equipped and nothing like it in my inventory. After asking for advice in other DD threads, I came to the conclusion that it's the chastity bra from the Captured Dreams quest. After identifying its Item ID and trying player.removeitem, the last two lines of text that appeared were:
GetQuestRunning >> 0.00
GetStage >> 150.00

 

I'm at a loss as to what to do to rid myself of the debuffs (other than just going back to a save before ever doing the quest). 

 

I saw that Papyrus logs are requested for problems like this, but when I looked up how to access those logs, I found that I didn't have them enabled. I've enabled them now - will the current log still be of any help? and have run the game, but there's still nothing in the Logs folder except an empty Scripts folder, so I'm not sure if I've done it right.

 

Forgot to mention: I was using this mod with Skyrim SE, not regular Skyrim.

Unfortunately this issue is with DDv4 as it uses a list to track what you are wearing and pulls info from there to determine debuff's and events. I believe there is a way around this though by using the DD function to remove ALL items (I believe it removes quest items as well) and it should clear the list as well. Beyond that you would have to ask the DD Dev Team how to remove the debuff since it is an issue with their engine.

Got it. I appreciate the information.

Still no luck. I click the option, it says, working a little box pops up, I hit ok, and nothing happens. No notification in the top left, and the devices still on.

Could it be a mod conflict?

 

Edit: Might be worth noting that the Deviously Cursed Loot safeword button doesn't work for me either. So, thinking about it, it's probably bigger than just your mod. But any advice you could spare would be greatly appreciated.

plz halp

If you are using DD v4 I believe it has an option to remove ALL devices even quest items (Cursed Loot won't remove other mods quest items).

So, I feel dumb, but... when you day DD v4... what exactly do you mean. I figure DD is Devious Devices but is that assets or integration or expansion or...? cuz i can only find DDa v3.0

Just tried the DD remove quest items button. nothing. Even regular bindings stayed.

...any ideas? or should I try to take this to the DD topic?

[Syssiah]

Heya

 

Two other questions please.

 

1- I have installed the latest Netimmersive Overide Mod in my NMM, and the game keep telling me I did't install it. So Impossible to wear the boots. Do you have an idea of what could be the cause and how to fix this ?

 

2- A captured Dream COurier comes to me sometimes, freezes myu character as if to go into interaction mod, then leaves. I can't click anything while it does this. Like something was amiss. is that normal ? If not, what should I do ?

I always refer to Integration since that is the engine for the mod. Assets will change very little as Zadil put strict restrictions on it in that it could only be updated to match the rest of the mod but no new items could be added to it, only his items could be there (that is why there is the Expansion).

You will need to talk to the DD Team about this, since they set it up so items are stored in a listing removal via console does not work entirely anymore.

1 - No idea why this would happen. I use NiO myself since I still use ECE and not Racemenu. I do use an old version of NMM (around version 0.52 so no virtuilization), you can try installing it manually (don't think it is many files) and see if that works.

 

2 - Do you see dialogue from anyone else? If not then Fus Ro D'Oh is not installed or installed properly (may be a similar case to what is going on with NiO).

I'm sorry, probably was this problem already discussed before but i couldnt find  it:

I am playing on Skyrim SE and have all required mods installed (newest available versions) and when a punishment scene should trigger my character just moves to a place and then nothing happens. Tried to reset Idles but nothing happened, any help pls? Atm i have to avoid the punishment scenes because of that

 

The "Free Trial" doesnt work either, again moving to a place but not equip an item or start the  animation

Do any other scenes from quests and such work? If not then make sure Fus Ro D'oh is properly installed. Beyond that I would need a papyrus log to see if there are any errors coming from the scripts that start the scenes. Personally I don't use SE so my experience with it is non-existent so I can't do much as far as troubleshooting.

Equipping Belt and collar works when starting a job, i tried reinstalling Fuz Ro D-oh but i think i did it wrong (realised lips from nps in this mod dont move) i hope i did it right with the papyrus, i read many warnings (first time i did the papyrus log xD)

do you think it could conflict with my other mods? i have about 90-100mods activated

If you see dialogue from custom npc's in ANY scene then Fus Ro D'Oh is installed correctly and functioning.

 

There are very few mods that conflict with CD, most are ones that do things in the same location. I run 240 esp's / esm's and have for years and test with my full load order and have very few issues (most are Skyrim being Skyrim).

 

 

On to the log (not even near the worst log I have seen):

The log shows a LOT of errors coming from the device hider in DD and in several instances where items are removed they are triggering the 'removeall' failsafe and are being re-equipped. I put a pause between unequipping and removing a device from player inventory in my primary device manipulation scripts to keep from triggering this (about 1/2 second). You may want to try disabling the device hider and see if that makes a difference or change its slot (I use 60 or 61)

 

The log is also coming up with a number of 'broken item' errors from DD on both CD and non-CD devices and 'fixing' them.

 

There are several points that DD hits the limit on repopulating items on npc's and aborts the function. Check what you have the number of npc's that are monitored by DD is and lower it (I usually run 3-4). Note that this is happening in the midst of the other errors and may be hitting the throttle limit due to the errors.

 

NOTE *** ALL of these errors are happening BEFORE DD has completed its compatibility checks (according to the log)

 

On a non DD related note you have a lot of errors referring to playing sounds (dust drop and similar things) and these are from Skyrim scripts and events.

Sadly reducing monitored npc by DD doesnt affect that and changing the device hider neither :x dont know
