Yes! In fact, at the very end.

"Indexed dmkal-WallPoseSpread" for example. 

Weird that additem for the .ESP is blank then. That means the furniture JSON is deployed /configs/DM properly. I don't know what else it could be other than a version conflict. Can you open the mod in xEdit, or does it show crossed out for some reason?

xEdit

No idea how to use xEdit but this is how it looks like.

Double click on it and it should show why. Also it could be as simple as your mod manager not enabling the plugin automatically.

[Ionenschatten]

Hmm, idk how to use xEdit. When I double-click it, something starts loading for 10 minutes. 

Plugins are never enabled in MO2 and I always have to manually enable them. It's enabled. 

 

 

Does this help?

I think crossed out just means disabled by your mod manager. If you're using Vortex, go to the plugins and make sure it's enabled. I have no idea for MO2.

[Ionenschatten]

I do have some mods that are crossed out but that's because they miss a master I can't be bothered to install. 

Kalma on the other hand isn't crossed out.

 

 





Edit: IT WORKS NOW and idk why, haha. Character is misaligned and the cam gets stuck in the furnitures, but those are usual errors with ZaZ furniture as well.

im getting a CTD upon loading a save. Are there any other mods needed other than DM3?

 

crash logger seems to be blaming follower mods but i think thats unrelated. New saves seem to work.

Make sure normal DM3 already works. I think there's a wiki, but you should be able to add those items using additemSE. 

 

I usually make them in workshop, I dunno it's more romantic.

Is there any way to remove placed furnitures?

IIRC, don't you just take it back by clicking on it and using the DM3 command?

Not sure what do you mean by "DM3" but i'll try putting "DM3" in the console whenever im able to play skyrim again.

'DM3' is the abbreviation for Display Model 3

 

 

This mod is called 

 

Kalmah's Contraptions and Animations ported to Display Model 3

 

The install instructions state

 

'Install Display Model 3 (https://github.com/darkconsole/dse-display-model)'

 

 

If you haven't done that, I don't know how you might be 'placing' the items from this mod, let alone using them, without DM3 but, if you somehow are, removing them without DM3 in your game might not be possible other than just using a straight console 'disable' command. 

 

If you actually do have DM3 installed, the item should be able to be picked up into your inventory from the 'DM3' based list of commands you get when clicking on it

 

Hope that helps

Oh, I was placing it by just using the "drop object" key from inventory, thank you so much for this info.

I added an updated patch for HSH 1.33b/c/d. Please note that this now requires PO3 script extender (you probably already have this).

Truly Genius!  Thanks VM indeed! 

 

I use your mod of the Kalmah assets in every game - some of the assets make for great 'storage' for slaves awaiting training, and even for parking specific NPCs to enslave later in the game - currently I have Camilla V, Sigrid and Gerdur squirming on hooks fixed into the beams of the The Riverwood Trader entrance, waiting for a suitable time to add them to DOM 🙂

 

Will this patch also work with TAK's V1.4+ HSH versions for DOM8?  He seemed to make very few major channges to the base mod, so would I be right to assume it should?     

 

EDIT: Just saw your comment on the new HSH thread about the t/f from DOM to HSH.  I'll see what happens when I get to the point in the game where I try this out properly.  I'm meantime having a spot of bother getting HSH to work - installs OK, but yesterday, I found the initial quest is being problematic.  Probably my cackhandedness tho, so I'm going to test it out again, hopefully over the weekend 

 

I'd actually had a look at the HSH code that uses the DM3 assets and I reckoned that whilst I understood the logic, doing the code for something like this was way, way, beyond my pay grade!

 

I realise that this is your mod and that you will know it inside out, but would it be possible to do something like this for the DM3 add on 'prj' collection too?

 

Hope that doesn't sound 'greedy', as it's really not intended to, but if you don't ask, you never get, and I'm not sure if anyone else out there would be up to doing it

 

Whatever, thanks again

Hi - the latest patch adds the PRJ - DM3 collection if you have it installed. I suspect it should work for HSH 1.4+ (the code for DM3 is the same), but I have problems getting HSH 1.4 + to work at all. The only setup which seems to consistently work is HSH 1.3 w/o any DOM patches (e.g. transfers have to go through PAH).

That's great, thanks!!  Very good of you to do that for us all!  And if it works on 1.4+ too, that will be a real bonus

 

Interested to read what you said about 1.4.  I've been trying to get it started properly, testing out the whole caboodle by working through the initial quest - something I have skipped for years - and I have been struggling to make that work.  I hope to maybe find a bit of time over this weekend to try again - I have 2 PAH and 2 DOM fresh candidates in the Restless Hunter and I was going to try them one at a time to see what happens - but things are a bit busy right now.  I'll get back to you if I can actually get it all to work as it says on the tin

 

And thanks again.  Much appreciated

Hi.  I said I'd get back to you on this, but it's taken much longer to try out the HSH basic startup than I expected

 

I couldn't get 1.4 + the updates to start the initial quest at all.  I've just given that up on that and checked the MCM option to make them optional and it now seems to move on as previously.  Think what I did was somehow screwed up Pardo's role by recruiting him into DOM - by mistake really - and that may have jinxed the rest of the initial quests if I didn't go back far enough in the game to 'fix him'.  Unless any of that sounds familiar to your issues, I'm sorry if I don't seem to be of much help

 

So I'm only really now at the point of even beginning to think about testing your mod out.  I'll try to give you a heads up, and a write up in the HSH thread, if it all proves to work OK.  I'm still some way off being able to test it tho' 😏

 

Thanks for the prior help, though

First, thank you very much for your work!

However, I’ve encountered an issue that many other users seem to have experienced as well. When I use certain DM3 extend furniture that allows me to select an animation stage, the game gets stuck. I can exit normally by pressing Tab, which suggests that the game itself has not stuck—the slot selection dialogue simply fails to appear.

I also noticed that someone reported the same issue on the DM3 GitHub page, but no solution was provided. Do you happen to know how to fix this? Thank you!

Something in your load over is overwriting UIExtension and preventing DM3 and its addons from working you need to move DM3 and its addons as close to UI Extension as possible to prevent that. I usually just stick it right under UIExtensions to prevent that from happening since I have around 3000 mods.

I found the same issue when using the 'LMAO - Tolls and Crimes' mod.  You could not select the relevant position in multi placement furniture

 

I and others posted about it there and it seemed to be clearly allied to something in that mod. 

 

I stopped using it so never really followed up on that, but there may have been further progress etc made there

 

Hope that helps

Hi.  I have still got your mod in my load order and apologise for not having got back to you before, but I have still never managed to get HSH running past the intro quest, so haven't made any progress on that

 

But I was wondering about one thing from what you wrote.  I get all the devices from your mod to work just fine, and I can put DOM slaves on them no bother at all.  But are their sex training stats meant to increase if you leave them there for a while?  I thought that was supposed to happen, but is that maybe only true if I have transferred them to HSH first? 

 

Any advice on that would be welcome!

I don't think DOM is aware of DM3 without HSH at all, only ZaZ and DD.
