Grimbold the unlovely Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Sexlab has made such stupendous strides in recent weeks that I am starting to see little poblems I never noticed before. One mild irritant is the centre screen message "E Talk" followed by the name of the NPC you are having sex with. Is there some way to get rid of this? I suspect that the answer will be embarrassingly simple, but I have so far failed to find it. The message pops up wtih every sexlab mod I use (mostly Spouses Enhanced and Romance). It gets in the way of the visuals and is immersion breaking (my mouth has other tasks than to talk during a sexlab animation). It would be fine to have a message displayed if it were a comment on the action (as in the excellent Sexlab Describe mod), but "Talk" just doesn't do anything for me. Reminds me of the old joke "a lawyer's idea of oral sex is talking about it." Any solutions to have less "Talk" more action?
gaggedgirl123 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I believe there are a few mods out there that disable the UI when it's not needed. Pretty sure one of them removes this when you check the option (I don't use it, so I might just be bullshitting without knowing it. If so, I'm sorry)
Grimbold the unlovely Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks for the reply. I just did a quick search on Nexus with "disable" and there are lots of mods to disable this and that (including some really bizarre things, like elk cries, which I have never even noticed after 2k+ hours of playing), but nothing (under "disable") to get the TALK out of my nookie. If anyone else knows of a relevant mod (or other workaround) please let us know.
Someone92 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 SexLab used to disable the HUD during SexLab animations, nowadays it doesn't anymore. I suspect that Immersive HUD - iHUD conflicts with SexLab and disallows it do hide the HUD; I doubt that Ashal has removed a very useful feature after he already implemented it. I haven't tested it yet, though.
Grimbold the unlovely Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 Interesting, but I don't have Immersive HUD. This is the first I have heard of that mod. I wonder if it might solve my problem.
xboronx Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I'm also having this problem, my workaround is that after finishing talking it usually takes 1-2 seconds till the sex animations start, so usually it is enough time to move your cursor away so that no action hotkey is shown. Hopefully eventually somebody will present a better solution though, since i also get it every now and then even if trying to avoid it.
Utari Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I also have this problem, recently I wrote about it here, and it seems that nobody knows what to do... When it really upsets me, the only workable solution I know is: console + tm
Someone92 Posted January 31, 2014 Posted January 31, 2014 I've found out how to hide your HUD and already implemented in my local version of SexLab Miscellaneous Fixes. Hopefully in the next couple of days I have managed to flesh it out enough to upload the new version.
Sarathis Posted February 1, 2014 Posted February 1, 2014 I manage to get around this irritation by using the }] key. When you press that it allows you to move during the 7 seconds it takes to realign the actors. I just face away from the NPC so the Talk dialogue goes away and, when the animation kicks in again everything is clear. I can't swear to it fixing the problem in all instances but, so far in my game, it's worked just fine.

Someone92 Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 Immersive Hud ;It doesn't hide the Talk popup, and if your health/magicka/stamina isn't full it doesn't hide them either. If you don't mind that your entire HUD (compass, health/magicka/stamina bars, interact popups, etc.) is invisible during SexLab animations use SexLab Miscellaneous Features.

I downloaded your mod and it works well (though it took a while to find a toggle key that worked. For me, the solution was 7&; P was already linked to something else, as was X). Your mod seems to do more than just solve the E Talk problem, but I am not sure what (don't know what "pegging" is). Could you tell us a little more about it? I chose your mod over Immersion HUD (which I have not tried), since your mod seems less aggressively interventionist and is designed specifically for sexlab. But I am still unclear as to its full features.

But I am still unclear as to its full features. Immersive HUD serves a completely different purpose, namely to hide every part of you HUD you don't need right now to make the game feel more immersive. Miscellaneous Fixes also allows you to change your and NPC's SexLab gender; MonaBabii has uploaded a mod that does exactly this, refer to his description to learn in detail what SexLab gender is used for: http://www.loverslab.com/topic/26431-sexlab-gender-change/?p=664541 It also has the option to add the tags "AggressiveFemale" and "Pegging" to specific animations (future plans for the mod are that the user can select those animations themselves). "AggressiveFemale" should be used for animations which are fitting for a female-on-male aggressive animation. Pegging is the sexual practice of a woman fucking a man with a strap-on. "Pegging" should be used for anal animation without clipping issues with the male's penis. Lastly, if that feature is activated, Miscellaneous Fixes will scan for animations with a female aggressor and a male victim and replace it with one of the above animations, and if it chooses an "AggressiveFemale" or "Pegging" animation depends on your setting in the MCM menu.
Grimbold the unlovely Posted February 3, 2014 Author Posted February 3, 2014 Pegging is the sexual practice of a woman fucking a man with a strap-on. You learn something new every day on Loverslab. I don't think even Aunt Peg knew that one. Does the Oxford English Dictionary?
