RegisteredUser Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 Alright, so I have been testing. I have to add Inigo to the faction everytime I (re)load the game, and it creates an additional dialogue option about combat behavior in his dialogue menu that I must never ever touch... but other than that, it appears to be working! He now successfully discovers containers and finds items in them. And after playing with the MCM settings and observing the results in the console, I now understand much better what actually goes on behind the scenes. I was positively surprised by the large variety of different lines and possible outcomes in the dialogue. A few things that struck me, though: One, I've had multiple situations in which the containers discovered stat didn't get reset to zero at the end of the dialogue because the follower wasn't able to put something he found on me. And it just makes the follower reroll a new item in the next pass and approach again. When he fails repeatedly, that can get pretty silly! Can I assume that this is a bug, or are there actually cases where it is supposed to happen? The weirdest of these situations went as follows: the console said that a zad_DeviousCollar was rolled. I was already wearing a collar. When choosing "what do you have in mind" in the dialogue, the follower went "shut up for a moment while I set this up" and proceeded to fit me with a chastity belt and a plug, a piercing (which I assume was randomly added by the config setting for adding piercings when getting belted by this mod), and a gag. None of these had anything to do with the collar roll result... and at the end of all this, the containers discovered amount was not even reset. Two, there maybe an extraneous check and/or unintended interaction. At some point I configured the chance for getting nipple piercings together with belts to be 0%. Then later-on, my follower found nipple piercings. But even though he found them as a separate item, there was a warning message in the console that said, paraphrased: "nipple piercings were selected, but the weight for nipple piercings is zero!". The item was added properly in the end, so not a real problem - but it's likely not intended behavior. Also, are you open to suggestions for further improvements? Or do you have more than enough left on your plate for the time being?
shadowwolf2k7 Posted January 17, 2018 Posted January 17, 2018 @RegisteredUser i have been using CRDE for a while now, it does take a while for them to actually approach you with and item, but if you set up the follower finds things the player missed. it will be stored, where i dont know, until a new scan is done. then all the items that you have scene and they have picked up they will go through a random roll and then approach you with the item that was chosen. i have noticed that at times they seem to change their minds about bringing an item to you, or there may not be enough items to do a roll with. i have a question for you, do you use Cursed Loot? if so you can turn up the restraints drop chance in that mod to 100% and your follower will find those items, again they will go into a storage to be used later as the roll for an item.
Verstort Posted January 18, 2018 Author Posted January 18, 2018 16 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: Ah, I understood that wrong, then. Probably the config option "can find items the player missed" made me think that in order for a follower to discover a container in the first place, the player has to open it first. But it rather sounds like the follower checks all containers in a certain radius (how big?) around them whenever the periodic check runs, Checking all containers in a radius sounds cool, but I'm worried about performance... Might be alright, I'll need to run a test or two. I'd rather not check every container found in a radius of the player ~3 times per 10 seconds. I don't think I can set formlist as unique list but I'll check. 16 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: and the entry for "containers discovered" in the MCM menu is the number of times the item finding roll failed since the last successful find? No that's a simple container count that the player has opened, since followers don't naturally go around opening containers it was the best metric I had to track if the player was in an area with stuff the follower could search through, the idea being if you bothered to stop and search, they might have found something too, best I could think of given limits of papyrus set down by Bethesuda 16 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: ...How big is an area of "4096" anyway? Would that cover for example all of Riverwood if I stood in the center? According to this: https://www.creationkit.com/index.php?title=Unit A game unit is 1.428 cm, or 0.5625". 16 units is 9 inches. 64 game units to a yard. 14,080 units a furlong. 4096 is 2^12, and in game units is 32 fathoms. 16 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: I'm actually betting it is the latter. Why? Because Inigo has (by now) a 11 in the "thinks player is submissive" stat, which he gained all by himself without me having to set it. From, among other things, him approaching me for sex on his own just fine. Even if that didn't also have the caveat that it only triggers after having sex at least once, it would definitely have fulfilled the condition for item finding several times over by now. No, I think he's missing factions. After some research, I came across this blurb on the Nexus page for Inigo, under upgrade instructions from earlier versions: "Step 1 is the critical part. He is completely removed from the standard game factions, if other mods (including Vilja) are still trying to affect him then they are going to get confused when he's no longer in those factions." Which at first I took as meaning "upgrading resets his faction associations". And I think that it's still true, but I also think it means even more - that he doesn't come with any factions by default, at all. And likely isn't using factions the same way that vanilla followers do. Now I wonder if I should do something like "addtofaction 0005C84E 0" in the console to force him into the CurrentFollowerFaction. It might break his AI if he's using a completely custom, faction-less follower system. Well, I guess trying doesn't hurt... 9 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: Alright, so I have been testing. I have to add Inigo to the faction everytime I (re)load the game, and it creates an additional dialogue option about combat behavior in his dialogue menu that I must never ever touch... but other than that, it appears to be working! He now successfully discovers containers and finds items in them. And after playing with the MCM settings and observing the results in the console, I now understand much better what actually goes on behind the scenes. Hmm... I put in the current follower limit to stop previous followers, who might be in your house, bothering the player for items they found what might have been ages ago. There is no other requirement in DEC or the base game that requires our mod to use that faction, it was just an easy way to keep it to the people recently following you. I could change the code to use any old follower with the CRDE faction and remove current follower, then find some way to put a time stamp on last item container found and if its too old we throw it out. 9 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: One, I've had multiple situations in which the containers discovered stat didn't get reset to zero at the end of the dialogue because the follower wasn't able to put something he found on me. And it just makes the follower reroll a new item in the next pass and approach again. When he fails repeatedly, that can get pretty silly! Can I assume that this is a bug, or are there actually cases where it is supposed to happen? You shouldn't get approached to get new items if you are already wearing them, that would would be a bug and if you can be specific about which item and what dialogue you got I can fix it. That said, DEC can roll the same item you are already wearing, but you should either be give the item or they should put it on themselves. It shouldn't try to put a second item on you. Containers counted should get reset to zero before you get approached, actually... I'll see if I can find the cause of that. 9 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: The weirdest of these situations went as follows: the console said that a zad_DeviousCollar was rolled.

None of these had anything to do with the collar roll result... and at the end of all this, the containers discovered amount was not even reset. That's special dialogue that ignores the item found, there isn't too much dialogue that does that. But the belt+extra function should have detected that you set piercing to zero and given you a belt without it, I'll check and see if its not working. Edit: Oops, would always give piercing when set to 0, backwards. Edit 2: That special dialogue didn't take user preferences into account, could have sworn It did.. 9 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: Two, there maybe an extraneous check and/or unintended interaction.

I'll check if the code for follower finding items ignores preferences on piercings, but it shouldn't it should just ignore those items normally. I like bug reports, as I can't fix bugs I don't know about. I don't mind suggestions, although I can't guarentee they ever make it out of my todo list. 8 hours ago, shadowwolf2k7 said: @RegisteredUser i have noticed that at times they seem to change their minds about bringing an item to you, or there may not be enough items to do a roll with. The approach can get canceled for all the same reasons that non-follower approaches can get reset, is that what you're seeing? Lack of items isn't enough to cancel a roll because there is a backup pull-an-item-out-of-thin-air solution for when the follower didn't find any items. Did you mean the roll itself, based on container count, not being high enough to continue? Even if there are items the follower could have found in a container you have already visited, we don't take it as given the follower found it, we still use the random roll to determine if they found something, with only a minor bump in the percent chance of approach.
shadowwolf2k7 Posted January 18, 2018 Posted January 18, 2018 @Verstort not exactly. i have had times were i am notified that the follower has found an item, and when i go to talk to them there is no mention of "hey i have found an item" and the console has ho indication as to what or why it stopped. i do know if they player and/or follower get brought into it will cancel the conversation, but i have had it happen inside of breezehome, where combat usually cant start. i have also noticed that later in the game there is plenty of items for the follower to choose from but early it tends to take longer for them to approach with items, that is what i meant by lack of items. i add followers manually when i get them so i dont have to wait for the first sex scene with them and so i can add in their sub/dom stats for the play through i want with them. which i think speeds up their approach with both the items and the sex conversations. on a side note, the newest test version has the trigger on all sex events is blacked out, which is causing every sex scene, even the ones that are set as attacks, any rape ones, to be detected as non attacks.

When an NPC, or follower, approach is active, the DEC loop gets sped up to every 2 seconds and checks if A) too much time as passed, in which we reset, and B) if the player is busy. You should get either a busy explanation in your log or a timeout message, but I agree I have seen two bugs at least: NPCs set to approach, if they are sitting in furniture (alchemy, bench) can sometimes fail to get up and start walking. No idea what causes this, but if you walk too close them they SAY their first lines but don't engage dialogue, this actually stops the attack, if you talk to them nothing happens. I have seen the follower approach stop without giving an output to log. I haven't figured out what causes this though, but it never happens if the player is idle and not doing other stuff, like opening containers/dialogue/walking/activating. Standing still the follower always seems to make it. 2 hours ago, shadowwolf2k7 said: on a side note, the newest test version has the trigger on all sex events is blacked out, which is causing every sex scene, even the ones that are set as attacks, any rape ones, to be detected as non attacks. I don't think 1 leads to 2 here. I don't remembering blacking that MCM option out, and it's fixed for the next release, but it should only lock the MCM value from changing through the interface, it doesn't affect how the code views the MCM option.. 1) That feature doesn't (or at least isn't meant to) do what you describe. It should do the opposite; set all sex from all mods as accceptable for DEC post-sex attack, rather than set all of them as unacceptable for attack. 2) If you type "SQV crdeMcm" in console and scroll waaay to the top, you'll see bHookAnySexlabEvent is set false. If you type "SetPQV crdeMCM bHookAnySexlabEvent_var TRUE" then open your MCM it will have changed. The blackout doesn't stop the feature from working only stops the user from changing the value; It's a feature of the interface not the code. You can still set the value and experiment with the difference through console, although in most cases where I greyed options intentionally, nothing will happen because there is no code using that option. If you say you aren't getting post-sex attacks, Then there's an actual bug in the code and the MCM value is unrelated. I'll double check on my end, but what debug output from DEC do you get after sexlab has finished?

You know, piercings are kind of a special case, because Deviously Enslaved does not normally select them separately. You can only get them from postsex events or NPC interactions if you get belted, and then roll a random chance. The follower finding a belt can also get you pierced that way. However, unlike the rest of the mod, the follower can find nipple piercings as an item on its own, no belting required. If you now go and make the follower obey all user weight settings, then there's a problem, because there's no weight setting for piercings on their own. If you let the piercings-with-belts chance setting block piercings as separate items, then the player can't configure things properly. For example, I intentionally set that chance to zero because I didn't want them to come attached with belts (a belt is bad enough on its own!), but I am perfectly fine with getting them separately. In fact, I want to get them separately. The follower dialogue for attaching them is quite immersive and believable. So regardless of how you choose to solve this, I'd like to request still being able to allow the follower to find piercings separately even if the piercings-with-belts setting is zeroed out. And if possible, it would be nice if he could find clitty piercings too. Right, and now a suggestion - I hope this qualifies as a low-hanging fruit, though I honestly don't know how much work it would really take. A dominant follower keeps telling the player that they look good in bondage, or that they find them hot, or that they are pleased with their response, and so on. However, since it's the player that gets the gear, it's also the player that starts getting exposure arousal from it. Meanwhile, the follower... doesn't. Not unless he found a wrist restraint and the player ends up nude with no option to re-dress. But shouldn't the follower get turned on if he gets to tie up their submissive player? You could try sending for example 5 base exposure (or any other value you think appropriate) to the follower at the end of the dialogue if they got what they wanted, and player did not respond negatively. At Sexlab Aroused Redux's standard 2.0 exposure rate, that would add 10 arousal to the follower. A similar thing could happen in the allow-being-tied-for-rewards dialogue, perhaps with more arousal for the medium option than the small one (the big reward option includes sex so it's pointless there). And any other such special dialogues, where you think it applicable. Perhaps other followers witnessing the exchange could get the same bonus, if they also like being dominant. Finally, if the player puts something on a follower who enjoys being submissive, that follower could also get this arousal boost.

I didn't even think of that, but I think I too have seen my character whip around and shoot my follower because of the approach. I bet I can detect that though, detect if the player is pulling an arrow or casting a spell at least. That said, DEC still considers a non-forcegreet approach as an approach for the sake of looking for reasons to cancel.

shadowwolf2k7 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 it was lvl 2, same as the default, the attacker didnt roll high enough for the enslave conversation so it was a sex one, gave a aggressive scene. to test it out i also set DCURs device comments to trigger a rape event which up through .4 would triggered the enslave/device roll. with .6 it choose the steal/device. i will test with .7 and see how that works.

Ah, well you don't get the enslave/device if you have any enslavement level above 0. steal/device was meant as the non-enslave outcome. I should redesign it so that theft can happen in either case, and enslave alone gets canceled out. Its leftover from 1.04
shadowwolf2k7 Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 i have an item i would like to suggest, the iron ring slave shoes, not sure if they are an option to be equipped or not, those would be interesting to see added
Verstort Posted January 19, 2018 Author Posted January 19, 2018 kinda wish you mentioned that a few days ago... But I might add them, sure
bicobus Posted January 19, 2018 Posted January 19, 2018 About the devices, does this mod allow the player to find or request keys from NPC? IIRC followers can find keys, but that's leaving the thing to chance a bit too much.

Trying to save clean didn't produce anything cleanable, so I went without. It... sort of works? It definitely did not work right after upgrading. Still had to manually add him to a faction. But after starting Skyrim again after dinner, he did get selected for an item roll without me doing anything. I will observe this some more. Something else I tested for the first time today: two followers together. Everything worked just fine, although the console output gets a little weird (it occasionally re-chooses a random follower in the middle of rolling for no discernable reason). Minor bug: was wearing a panel gag and a chastity belt and was approached for sex. The conversation ended with the follower saying something like "Oh right, you are still tied up... oh well, only one end needs to be open, right?" Upon which he removed the chastity belt so that sex could be had. Just one problem with that: it was a Belt of Shame from Cursed Loot. Those are not meant to be openable at all, by anything - they have a timed lock that opens on its own after a while.

Suggestion: rename to "mundane plugs" and allow it to randomly select from wood and metal plugs. Also, what does the Training Plug do? I thought I read somewhere in the thread that it was not meant to be used. But the weighting slider for it is active on my end, so it seems like it can be set to be randomly selected when belted. Intended? Suggestion: move the "unique collars" weight slider from the Event Weights section down to the Single Event Weights section, where the other individual items are, and have it be a possible result from rolling for individual items like all the others. This makes the config behavior consistent across all items, and makes the unique collar selection itself consistent. Right now, they are selected as an event by postsex, but as an individual item by followers, both using the same weight setting. Making this change would make them become an individual item for postsex as well. 12 hours ago, shadowwolf2k7 said: i have an item i would like to suggest, the iron ring slave shoes 12 hours ago, Verstort said: kinda wish you mentioned that a few days ago...

IIRC followers can find keys, but that's leaving the thing to chance a bit too much. There is no dialogue where the player asks a follower/NPC for keys, or to find keys. I've thought about adding a dialogue to ask the follower to look for keys, which would increase chances, but it would still be random. Asking NPCs for anything felt like it was redundant, it felt like there were already > 3 mods that allowed the player to ask NPCs for keys/help, adding another felt like a waste. 7 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: Tested this today.

Auto save clean doesn't always pick up that changes have been made, I never use just auto clean for that reason. I always try to specify specific mods and remove all their contents when I want to clean them. The reason for reroll is not all followers that can approach you for sex can approach for items. It's maybe debug that doesn't need to be seen by the user though, should probably just state which follower is chosen IF the approach is decided. 7 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: Minor bug: was wearing a panel gag and a chastity belt and was approached for sex.

That dialogue might have been one, I need to recheck. I was sure the code checks for blocking before trying to remove a belt, but it might not. I'll recheck. 7 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: I saw you added a config option for wood plugs weighting.

So you have no plans for the training plug yet ? It always felt like it could be an interesting gateway into parts of the mod (force-triggered enslavement at the end of the timer, unlocking extra follower dialogs/behaviors, ...) even if each sound like a fair amount of work to make it happen.

Plans to integrate it into a not-yet-existing 'follower becomes master to player slave' system are sitting next to the non-existing system in the backlog. That's a lot of dialogue, a lot of possible outcomes and practically requires a mini slave system all byitself, and I work too slow for it to happen any time soon, especially with how slow I am to conceive dialogue and my tendency to want options and variety at all levels. Edit: I lost a lot of interest in the plug when I realized that it was going to be really round about to try to block orgasm with it too, I wanted control over who and how the wearer could orgasm but it didn't seem easy when I looked at sexlab/SLA code.

By default DDi4 items may get stuck on the player, and as DEC adds devices on it becomes increasingly annoying to remove them: one by one with a potential of several hours of cooldown decided by chance. So if a follower enjoy putting devices on the player, wouldn't that same follow agree to remove some? At least, for a price... Anyhow, what are those 3 mods you are referring to? Unrelated question: to disable enslavement, all I need to to is to set the chance slider to 0%?

Devious Devices ships two kinds of nonmagical plugs. Wooden ones, and iron ones. See xx031703 and xx031704 for iron. Also potentially interesting for you, since you have that pony gear set: DDx 4.0 now ships tail plugs for ponygirls. See xx02EA47, xx02EA4B, xx02EA4C, xx02EA4D. You could update the set: replace the zaz wooden bit gag with one of the new pony gag harnesses (f.ex. xx03B221 for black ebonite to match the rest of the gear), include a tail plug, and maybe remove the bodyslide-incompatible and heavily clipping zaz belt. Whether you want the tailplugs as possible results when receiving a normal belt... well, up to you. EDIT: Hmmm, pony boots also seem to not currently be present in the weights sliders. Unless they're included with "gloves and boots", but that event always seems to add just the DDx high heeled boots. Maybe split "gloves and boots" into two sliders, one which does various gloves plus bondage mittens, and the other which does all the different kinds of footwear? 10 hours ago, bicobus said: Unrelated question: to disable enslavement, all I need to to is to set the chance slider to 0%? Yes, but you have to do it in two places. First, the approach chance; and second, the enslavement trigger after rape events. Set both to zero and no enslavement can happen.

I do have plans to allow for followers to remove items, but not give keys non-randomly. Follower removal is planned to sit right next to "tie me up" player->follower dialogue, which isn't ready. But giving keys, and unlocking someone, are different enough contexts I feel to be considered different kinds of interactions, like asking for a ride in a car and taking the keys to drive. 6 hours ago, valcon767 said: not sure if these are the ones he was talking about but Cursed Loot - has multiple ways to ask for keys (as well as have keys drop) and has a couple of ways to get out of devices (pay and otherwise) Captured Dreams Shop - way you can ask to buy keys (your stats within that mod determine if you can buy any) and way to pay to get out of some devices also: For The Masses - can add keys to NPCs Devious Followers Beta - follower can remove some devices (will cost you though) also (if you are willing to have a beta running) i have forgotten off-hand which other mods i have installed that can do similar things. hope this info is helpful.

Whether you want the tailplugs as possible results when receiving a normal belt... well, up to you. I saw them and was going to add to the second version of the suit, which needs a little more work because it's DD4 which is a soft dependency right now. Didn't know the tail wouldn't clip with the belt though... pretty sure those tails stay in without a belt but if they don't clip could be a possibility. I don't see it in mod organizer, but awhile back I found a way to get the zaz horse belt to work with bodyslide and it works fine now. Can't remember what I did though... 4 hours ago, RegisteredUser said: EDIT: Hmmm, pony boots also seem to not currently be present in the weights sliders.

No I plan to keep Gloves and boots separate and just add a mittens and other boot option. Gloves and Mittens don't have the same effects, one can cause you to drop what you're holding from time to time, the other stops you from holding anything ever. As for boots, I don't really like the slave boots or pony boots much in my own playthroughs. Ponyboots works fine with other pony items but feels weird by themselves. Slave boots are kinda by themselves and don't really match anything else well. These boots would be kept separate from the restrictive boots. 1
shadowwolf2k7 Posted January 21, 2018 Posted January 21, 2018 here is the doggie belt used in the current pony setup, it is what i use since i use unpb. and it doesn't clip https://www.loverslab.com/files/file/1344-zaz-doggie-belt-unp-7b-hdt/ couple of notes about .7 and the new update to DCUR. DEC is detecting all current items in DCUR and shows added to the item list, but only equips what is supported in DEC. second note, DEC caused rape events are not rolling for device key steal or enslavement.
