One question: why?

Requirement of original Stress and Fear. I noticed too late I had the version with the Creation as requirement.

Ah, now I recall why I skipped that mod entirely, despite seemingly being right up my alley.

Oh, you should check it again then! I think it has a version without that requirement? Check here under miscellaneous files.

 

This is of course something I have to look into myself, so that this random requirement doesn't filter out so many people needlessly.

For some reason I'm not seeing stress reduction after sex, anyone else having this issue?

This should be fixed! Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

LOOT returns an error for this Plugin

This also ought to be fixed. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

I'd like to see some follower integration were your followers are effected by stress and fear needing a tender touch to reduce it.

I'm afraid such features are slightly outside this mod's purpose. It primarily has the functions to create a bridge between SexLab scenes and Fear and Stress. This sounds like a different concept altogether that I'm afraid isn't the goal of this mod.

now that it seems to be working as intended can you remove the magic effects visuals and messages

(Edit)

additionally and as a side note

 

while going into xedit to see if i could at least remove the visual effects myself i found that the esp still contains invalid forms for an esl format

 

GetLewdRank

 

GetPureRank

 

stressModIndex

 

these globals seem to be the culprits

as a seperate thing can you make it so the relief you get from sex is much lower then the stress you gain from rape

I'm afraid that I'm going to leave it in, so that people can at a glance see whether the mod works or not. I'm afraid I'm going to prioritize the visibility for the uninitiated over the immersion of no effect, but I'm of course going to leave how to remove the visuals and messages here for other people who might not be super mod editing savvy.

 

To remove the visuals:

1. Open SL_StressAndFear.esp in SSEEdit. You do this by marking it and clicking OK on the list that shows up. If you have a mod manager, you must add it as a launchable in said mod manager.

2. Expand SL_StressAndFear.esp > Magic Effect

3. Click on the first Magic Effect, in my case, HeavyStressEffect. In the View tab on the right, you want to find Hit Shader. You can Filter by Name at the top of the window.

4. Change Hit Shader to NULL.

5. Back in the view on the left, select all of the effects labelled something Stress or Relief.

6. Right Click > Compare Selected

7. Find Hit Shader again, it should now say NULL - Null Reference. Right Click > Copy to Selected Records

8. Save and close SSEEdit.

 

You should now no longer have visuals if you followed this precisely.

 

As for the messages themselves, you can edit them in the Source files and compile the scripts through PCA or Creation Kit. Just as long as the Properties are set, it should be fine. I'm not going to offer advice on this one, as there's several things that can go wrong in the process, so only do this if you're capable of navigating Bethesda's infernal scripting language.

For those that dislike the messages I found this, though it does remove most messages from the game and mod list, in its default state. Im not in the mood to tinker with .ini settings at the moment but it does provide a host of settings to filter out unwanted and wanted notifications

The mod won't initialise: MCM won't show up, and I can't find the quests in the console. Any other ideas of things to check?

Do you have that pesky fishing creation enabled?

Fishing is in my plugin list and I can even reduce base Stress and Fear's stress stat by doing the fishing in game, so I don't think it's that. Is there a particular version of stress and fear i should be trying or something?

[effrenatus]

Since i am on SSE without CC stuff, i guess i'd have to stay on 1.0.0 version...

 

In the description you write: "It seems like stress isn't applied sometimes. Should be fixed. Please leave me a post if you still experience this!"

Was that corrected in the 1.0.0 already?

Hello! Sorry for late answer.

 

I don't quite remember - but just to be safe, grab the scripts from the latest release and simply replace them in the version you use, there should be no problem doing so if I recall correctly! If not, let me know and I'll see if I can't whip something up real quick.

Is there a safe way to change the amount of stress reduction? I tried changing the keyword of the magic effect "LightReliefEffect" to "Stress_Reduce25" in the SLStressAndFear_KID.ini file. This worked to some extent, the minimum amount of stress reduction became 25 as I wanted (including masturbation), but it ended up causing a strange interaction with BiSR (Bathing in Skyrim - Renewed): every time I activate BiSR with the .ini file configured that way all the Dragonborn's active effects disappear (including racial abilities, standing stones, item effects, effects of other mods like Sunhelm). This problem only happens when I change the .ini and activate BiSR, if I keep the original .ini everything works perfectly. If it were possible, I would like sex to be more rewarding for the Dragonborn. Thank you very much.

Hello! So, the reason this doesn't work is the fact that LightReliefEffect is a dummy spell that is cast on you that tells Stress and Fear to remove some stress. That means, it'll still cast LightReliefEffect's spell, but without the keyword, thus doing nothing.

 

I'm, at the moment, not handling Creation Kit, so it's a bit hard to figure out how to make it more rewarding without scripting. But when I get back to it, I promise I'll look into a way to make relief more powerful that's opt in.

Hello there! I have the no fishing requirement patch from the original mod, does that mean that I don't need Fishing to use your mod, or do I still need it? Many thanks!

Hi! I blundered when I made this, and built it on the one that REQUIRES the fishing patch. So for now, I'm afraid so. You should check back in a month or something, then I might have a version that works for you. Apologies for that!

No problemo! I'll keep an eye out.

Is there any desire to integrate and/or add support for Skooma Whore as a means of lowering stress, similar to how it tied into Dragonborn in Distress for LE? I don't think DID made it over to SE but the Stress and Fear mod mixing with Skooma Whore seems like it would perfectly fill the void.

From my end, not entirely. I only sort of made his on two cans of energy drink and a dream in a day to be a bridge between Sexlab and Stress and Fear, and I personally don't use Skooma Whore. So making an integration for is sadly outside the cards for me - but as said, I made this in a day, so surely there's someone out there who can just pick up some listeners from Skooma Whore and add some spells with the Stress and Fear keywords to them!

Can you make a SLSO patch?

 

You'd only lose stress if you orgasm, if you finish consensual without orgasm youd gain a small amount of stress

 

Orgasming during noncon will create more stress.

I think I can fix that pretty easily! It might take me some time, but it's on the list now.

Another thought:

Tie in sexual preference. Acts with gender outside your preference get bonus stress, and you only lose stress with acts inside your preference.
