  Hide contents

I see an inconsistency, because there are three people who know the captain's secret. It also seems strange that those three NPCs didn't mention that secret.

 

 

Spoiler

They are not supposed to say anything to anyone while still prisoner because they will either be killed or get their tongues cut out...

 

Although it probably would make sense for someone to say something during the uprising.

 

If player chose non-creature route, Aeris should probably say something after the cave ambush ends and it is time to go up since both the player and the others do not know yet.

 

If playing creature route, she should probably say something to Jax and Arlya when they volunteer to be the ones to kill him. Player knows, but they don't yet.

 

I'll adjust the dialogues in those parts and Jax/Arlya/Gorty can say something like "It's true! He really is a..." when they face him upstairs.

If you think about it, even if the NPCs don’t reveal the captain’s true nature, the mere fact that they took part in the slave revolt is reason enough to kill them or cut out their tongues.

So regardless of whether they tell the PCs about it or not, they could die (assuming the rebellion might fail). However, after the rebellion itself, they might reveal this fact. Additionally, once the PCs find out, keeping him unguarded is a rather bad idea. Knowing who he is.

Somewhere along the way the dialogue quests stopped working.  Started with Raselle I think, the quest was to talk to her but I couldn't.  Used setstage to get passed it but it started happening with other NPC's.  Any fix?

Hard to say what it could be if I don't know the quest/stage you are at. Nobody else has reported that problem.

 

If you really cannot get anyone to talk, it sounds like a bug corrupted the quest you are on. You might want to start from the beginning. Tell Gron and Aeris at the start that you want to skip chapters and skip to where you are now. Hopefully it won't happen again. Try not to rush the last lines of dialogue that progress quest stages. Sometimes rushing dialogue keeps the command from going through properly.

I have the same problem. After sex with the orc at the beginning I cannot talk to anybody!!!!

I first noticed something was wrong with the second beast show, where the two other slaves bang the horse and your job is to do a side show.  After that it told me to talk to Raselle.  And while her dialogue option would show up when I got close, she’d just say some repetitive one liners if I activated her and no actual dialogue ui would pop up.

Can't talk to them like you can't even 'activate' them to see a list of dialogue choices? Or can you talk to them but just don't have quest-progressing dialogue?

 

If you cannot 'activate' them, it sounds like the animation might not have ended properly and your controls have not totally come back... I've had that happen once or twice over the years with other mods. Pretty sure just quitting and reloading fixed it.

 

You two are getting these issues at two different points, so I don't think the scripts are set up wrong. Either files got corrupted during download/installation or these are just random chance bugs. I'm going to upload a 1.5.1 version shortly. You can try downloading that one when it is ready and hopefully it will work.

I just uploaded 1.5.1. Give it a test and see if there are any improvements.

 

Remember to start COMPLETELY from the beginning. Load a save from before you ever read the notes or got sent here through Simple Slavery. Maybe even load a save from before the mod was ever installed.

Not sure what you did, but it fixed my problem!

Am I blind? Where is the pool outside? - Disregard... I don't know how I missed that lol

 

"There is a small pool outside and I placed some ingredients for plain soap as well as linen wrap for wash cloths so the new slave can stay clean if need be."

 

I was going to try and drink water from it. Because my survival mod (Sunhelm) is really upset with how dehydrated my PC is, and I've at this point grabbed every bottle of alcohol lying around there is lol. Not sure if we can get water with the beef stew?

All I did was change the order of certain commands. I noticed I removed all of the Kane's inventory AFTER I gave him the slave outfit. So, his collar was getting removed right after he got it. I switched it so he gets the collar after everything else has already been taken away. Maybe that was the cause?

I'm pretty sure drinkable water is not part of vanilla Skyrim. I don't ever see it. All I see is alcohol and milk. I've never used that Sunhelm mod you mention.

 

Can you really not drink any water from the pool? Is there a way to get water if you have an empty bottle or something? If not, I suppose I can have Eleia give you milk when she gives soup.

 

Alcohol is not good for dehydration in real life! Drinking that will just make it worse!

Ok I'll give it a shot.  Of note, does this also fix issues with the random bandits accosting you asking for sex, but then not actually starting a sex scene?  Cause that happens too.

[no_way]

It did not.  Here's my papyrus log if thats helpful?  Duate asked for sex (twice) but nothing happened.

It could be, but all I can say is that I have had no problems no far with this new update

I'm not an expert with papyrus logs, so I am just taking a shot in the dark here.

 

I see lots of messages relating to OSLAroused and NPCs wanting to watch action and chances of there being random masturbation or orgies. Then at the end of those logs you have the messages "VM is freezing/frozen".

 

Seems like something is going on with OSLAroused that makes the game start malfunctioning. Probably an overload because there is so much action going on and everyone wants to masturbate to it? Someone with more expertise with OSLAroused and reading error logs would know more.

You are correct. I had to look it up and didn't realize the normal water item is added via whatever mod at the moment. I knew waterskins were from mods, but I guess I've played modded so long I had forgotten normal water was not just part of the game. It's not a major issue, I was able to take the empty alcohol bottles and fill them with water from the pool. I had just been blind at first, and didn't see the pool, maybe the angle was just off or something. It was my third time through this mod over a few updates, and I was trying to see if I could get crafty with an escape attempt when I walked around. I agree alcohol shouldn't hydrate, haha, but, in iNeed and Sunhelm, it gives a tiny bit. Must be really watered down. Using the pool to drink from seems perfectly fine and so no changes are really needed.

 

I just want to say again, how much I enjoy the mod. While it adds all the SL stuff, the storyline and progression throughout it really has a lot of immersion. The narrative is good. My last 3 playthroughs, my PC starts off innocent enough using a backstory from LAL, but once she gets tossed into Paradise, it always really changes her. She is attempting to level up her pickpocketing to see if she can just steal keys to escape and alter the story. We will see.

Kk ill give that a look thanks.  However, NO scenes are going on when these approaches for sex fail

Hmm, theres no feature in OSL for auto masturbate or crowds.  I do have spectator crowds installed.  But again, this is happening with no scenes going on.  Its always a double ask for sex, then no scene start.

 

P+ compatible?

Not sure. Never used P+ because I hear it does not work well with creature animation scripts.

 

If he asks for sex twice, it sounds like the whole script is not going through because the quest stage should also advance with that dialogue. The same script that starts the sex also progresses the quest stage forward.

 

It's not uncommon for an NPC to still force-greet you after the dialogue ends because their AI package has not caught up yet. However, there should be none of the same dialogue he said before because you should now be in the next quest stage where that dialogue is no longer available. You should just see the basic dialogue that would always be there if you tried talking to him yourself at any other point in the quest (like asking him for non-quest related sex).

 

Again, if he keeps trying to talk to you with the same dialogue, it is not just the animation that failed, but also the quest progression. The whole script did not go through. Maybe this has something to do with P+, maybe not. Everyone has different PCs and setups.
