When I try to build certain HDT-enabled items in bodyslide, the items show an empty preset list, consequently the item does not follow UUNP sliders in game. However, the non-HDT version of the item behaves as expected. What could cause this and how can I resolve it? This issue also appears to affect the DDA versions of these items. I have tried to use batch build to let preset from another outfit carry-over to the bugged outfits but that did not work. I did remember to build morphs. I'm trying to build items as Zeroed Sliders preset for use with UUNP sliders in game.

That is normal. You shouldn't be selecting items in that dropdown. Select a HDT body and preset. Then use batch build button (with morphs selected) to build all the items at once.

Hey,

I am trying to make some more immersive textures for DD-Devices, starting with Boots. 

Anybody know if there are high resolution files of these anywhere? Would like to work in a higher resolution and then make lower ress versions later. 
Much appreciated. 
Also who made these textures originally? I found them in DD Expansion, but I think Zaz Framework has the same in black?! 

I would also like to know if similar textures already exist so I can save me some work

This is just my first quick shot to see how gold looks in game. Needs the second boot and some refinement.

More WIP

Experimenting with adding leather textures. But I need to rebuild the underlaying structure completly because its too low res I think. 
 
Tell me what you think! 

[Nymra]

ok I m done with the first version

I hope you like them.

So, not sure if anyone has complained about the rubber noises, but I am gonna mention them anyway.  They sound like two inflated rubber balloons rubbing against each other.  Latex does not sound like that.  It is rather distracting, especially if you have a herd of latex clad followers following you.

track down the sound files in the mod folder and kill or replace it?

link under recommended mods is broken and appears to be a truncated non-link instead

[dimasdeny]

any alternate link without mega?

[kingofthenorth9]

How can you tell if you got the download right? should it say somethin in FNIS? Or can someone clarify the way you download the three DD (assets, integration, expansion) mods? I'm trying to get Devious Cursed loot to work.

You know if your download is right if:

> your Browser doesn't gives you a download failed warning

> you get a zip file at the end

> the size of the zip file should be the same as the download page shows

 

MEGA works well, if not:

> use another browser

> don't download anything else during the download

> use the mega download assistant if all fails

 

Alternative download for DDx:

That page is also rather old.

you can just throw "devious-skyrim" into google and get the right page

careful with the posted mods, some are old enough to conflict with DDi 4.3

As shown on the pic ?

[kingofthenorth9]

I used the links from searching Devious Skyrim in Loverslab, Devious Devices Integration and expansion download as PDF for Adobe, I compress them to a zipped folder does this still work? Or could I be installing them wrong?  if so then can someone clarify how I do that because I must be doing it wrong trying to follow the instructions in the mods descriptions.

No ?

 

Download the file from the individual mod pages (the big green download button)

After the download you get a zip file (or if the download failed you get likely a unspecified file or tmp file)

You can add that zip file directly to your mod manager.

 

If you get a PDF file, then something went wrong during download or on your PC *.7z files are wrongly associated with PDF files.

You can make a test and unzip the file, if you get a warning, then the downloaded file is broken.

If you try to open a zip file as PDF it should also fail.

so how do I fix this?

So far I can't see what is to fix.

If it's a broken download you can't fix the file, but you have to download the mod zip again.

Let's talk about a specific mod you want to download.

You want to download DDx 4.3

Click on the green download button => this opens a new window

Click on the gray download button => this brings you to the MEGA download page (after waiting)

 

Spoiler

 

That's how the file looks on mega:

click on the download button

The file size is huge, so it will take a while to download.

Depending on the internet bandwidth you have, it might be a good idea not do download anything else while the MEGA download is still running.

This also includes watching any high definition streams.

Spoiler

 

At the end you should get a file named "Devious Devices - Expansion 4.3a.7z"

The file ending *.7z shows that this is a file (or multiple files and folders) compressed by the program 7-zip.

A *.zip file can be added to your Modmanager

 

If the downloaded file shows as...

Devious Devices - Expansion 4.3a.7z

The explorer also shows the file as "7Z-file" in the category "type"

...you successfully downloaded DDx ? ready to be added to your Mod Manager.

 

In explorer zip files and other compressed files (rar for example) will look like this (in my explorer):

Spoiler

 

Means in my case ZIP and RAR files are associated with the program 7-zip and will be opened by 7-zip if I double click them.

 

I can change the associated program if I wanted to by:

right click on the file => properties => open with: "change"

In this example I changed the associated program for ZIP files to Adobe Flash Player:

(only ZIP.files get a new associated program, because RAR-files are from another compression program, but Z-zip can open ZIP and RAR files)

Spoiler

This means that abcSexlife.zip is still a ZIP-file and will also be handled like one by a mod manager.

The only change here is that in explorer the file shows as associated to Adobe flash player and if I double click it, Windows will try to open that file with Adobe flash player instead of 7-zip (which will give a collection of error messages in this case ^^)

okay got it, so I have the three DD (assets, integration, expansion) files as .zip.

Sweet =D

Now you have to use the holy adeptus mechanicus oil on your Mod Manager. Be sure to make it really oily (very important for NMM users). ?

After this ritual act to appease the holy machine spirit, you can add those files to your mod manager and install them ?

[kingofthenorth9]

thanks for the Help! So I want to make sure I have the installation right I first(1) install and enable Devious Devices assets, then (2)run FNIS then (3) start up Skyrim and create a new save then (4) I install and enable Devious Devices intergradation and expansion then (5) run body slides. Then install and enable Devious cursed loot. 

 

I am making sure I read the instructions correct.
