Estrus Chaurus+

Morferous · January 25, 2017

Hm, dumb question how to disable scripts folder ?

Btw, i use NMM.

Edit:

Ah, you mean in Scripts folder delete the scripts manually ? There are many, don't know which one to delete.

I mean Estrus Skyrim scripts folder. Easy to do in MO, but NMM is a bit of a problem.

Try the following.

- Uninstall Estrus Skyrim.

- Unpack the mod archive. Delete ESP and Script folder from it.

- Repack the mod archive and upload it to NMM.

- Do not allow mod to win any possible conflicts against Estrus Chaurus+

Thanks, will try that.

Edit :

Nope, sadly it doesnt work. Same result...Spit attacks only poisend me and than it just wants to kill me.

That's the only mod i never get to functioning...

sounds like the spit attack are not triggering the estrus at all! What I have done is installed estrus for skyrim 1st then estrus chaurus then spiders start a game and let estrus for skyrim trigger up start adding spells and stuff once it did that, saved game and unticked the esp in NMM and kept it there and loaded the save, you should get warning about missing stuff play normally but once you make another save and quit game use save cleaner to clear out orphaned scripts

I agree. Spit attack doesn't work even on 100% chance. Please fix.

Well, there are some changes within 4.30 EstrusChaurus.esp, so I have it translated just in case.

So here's 4.30 version Russian translation patch:

EC+ V4.30 - Russian Patch.7z

Personally I did a "repack" striped of the scripts and esp. All I have from the original are the textures, meshes, sound and skse plugin (and I don't know if I should have the skse plugin still, I'd wager that I need the appropriate papyrus script for the plugin to be useful at all). If somebody more knowledgeable than me could explain clearly what part of the old estrus is needed, that would be terrific.

edit:

forgot to mention due to how long ago that repack was made, anybody using it should immediately update ec then disable or remove actor events from the repack before loading the game

I don't usually hate on mods, I don't want to hate on them, but I have to express my anguish that so many people are spending their valuable modding experience making their own mods AROUND a mod that is so horribly broken, rather than either fixing its broken scripts or even writing their own fresh tentacle hentai mod lol.

I mean I've seen about...4-5 separate mods that use Estrus as a master yet the Estrus mod itself is a huge failure and hasn't been updated in spite of people begging the author to do so, it doesn't work, using it has a 85% chance of either locking ur character in place until u reload, crashing the game or making npc's permanently stand in one place cheering in spectator mode, forever breaking their daily schedule scripts.

Also the built in free camera is excruciatingly slow and if I remember, I think attempting to use SexLab's free camera that usually works anytime with a hotkey either does nothing during the Estrus anims or causes the character to be locked in place, or it could have been that it locks the camera in one direction after ending animation, one of those things happened to me, its been a while.

I'm frustrated about it because I care man, someone...ANYONE needs to fix Estrus so it and all the other mods that utilize it are more enjoyable, considering all the hentai fans out there, I'm amazed no one has stepped up to the task, it seems like such a simple mod when compared to some of the other scripted animation mods out there, and it has ONE job dammit lol.

#Make_Estrus_Great_Again...for the first time XD lol

Disclaimer: This is to say nothing about Estrus Chaurus as that mod is fine, I'm sure many of its glitches are no doubt caused by Estrus being so lame in the first place.

Unfortunately fixing the original mod is not an option as the author did not release the source code or give permission for it's use.

My strong recommendation is that anyone using EC+ disables the zzEstrus.esp to avoid these problems

Yeah I figured as much, which is why someone should just make a completely fresh version of the same thing, I'm sure Jhezborg doesn't own the rights to tentacles lol. maybe if some of our awesome animators collaborated a bit, they could make something that's way better and more stable in a week or so maybe.

I mean, it would be better for the Estrus chaurus mod too, cos right now its pretty limited to what it can achieve from using Estrus's stuff, unless u can add more anims to EC by using Estrus's Texture/Mesh.

see the repack above

Yeah I prefer the simplicity of being able to start action when the whim arises, I like to roleplay with it, so I prefer to keep Estrus turned on, I just wish someone would rewrite the whole thing, its such an outdated mod that it needs some TLC desperately, make it with the modern tech, maybe some new and improved features and animations, that would be awesome, and since the author of Estrus seems to have quit modding, or at least abandoned Estrus, I doubt he would care if anyone re-did his mod surely, people are still active in Estrus's comment section today and Jezborg never even replies.

Every mod that uses Estrus says to turn off its esp(and actor events as well as actor event scripts). Because of the exact problems you describe. It's so broken that people do work around it, like this mod. Use Sex Tools or Manipulator to get your animations on the fly without bloating and breaking your saves. It's much safer that way as well and you won't have the umpteen problems the old estrus esp causes. Though I think there was a real reason why people weren't able to fix the old mod. Either for permissions or it was an absolute mess inside. I can't remember.

So are u saying I can turn estrus's esp off but still call the animations through sex tools and manipulator? I have both of those mods and I haven't noticed any option for that, guess I'll have to have a closer look to make sure I didn't miss it, unless that is a new thing in a super recent version of either of those, I think I have Sex Tools version 3.0 and Manipulator version 6.3, if memory serves.

EDIT: I found Sex Tools's animation creator but it doesn't allow me to use the tentacle animations for anything, the animations show up in the list but when I try to set them it shows up as "Missionary" and plays that animation instead, plus there is no way to set an animation for solo activation, it has to be via Human or Creature, and it will only allow me to set animations that those race's are capable of doing, like bear's or whatever will only be eligible for their own corresponding animations, and trying to set tentacle sex to humans just defaults the animation to Missionary.

So I'm stumped...

has the spider mod been updated to the current release of estrus chaurus, last i saw that was before 4.0

if i'm not mistaken the spider mod shares the same files as ec, by installing spider after ec you've rendered ec inert

I agree. Spit attack doesn't work even on 100% chance. Please fix.

are you using the same options as the above user or are you having this issue without the spider mentioned above
