SexLab Parasites - Kyne's Blessing (January 2025)

[Testificate17185]

After finally getting all parts of your brilliant mod to work, including SLIF, I have one last question. What type of weapon are the blade and claw as seen by perks? As in, are they dagger, sword, axe mace or something else?

[RPTR_VT]

I need some help running this mod in SE. I have all the dependencies : Sexlab, Animations, Estrus Charus and EC+, Sexlab stories (and devious stories), sexlab hormones and animated parasites. For sex with creatures i use naked defeat mod. and pretty much everything is working well, except the lactation part. Tentacles and living armor grow breasts for 10days but they dont do anything beyond that (besides DD events, like tentacles slide on your crotch or suction is creeping on your inner thigh) I do get notifications like milk has spilled all over the breasts but i dont see anything. 

 

I tried using milk mod economy but couldnt get it working with parasite armor (although mme recognises it as a living parasite armor).

I have another mod installed, CCAS, which features one alternate start that uses this mod. However, I can’t seem to get that particular start to work, which I find strange because everything else works just fine, so I was wondering if a recent update of Kyne’s Blessing might have rendered it incompatible with CCAS.

Two questions:

 

1- which prompt from CCAS did you use?

2- are you using LE or SE?

1. “I am brood maiden of the chaurus. (SexLab Parasites - Kyne’s Blessing)” under the ”miscellaneous” subcategory.

 

2. I am on LE.

 

I’ve also done everything according to the CCAS instructions (configure EC+ and all other mods in MCM prior to using the bed, Live Another Life and add-ons at the bottom of the load order, etc.). I tried the proposed jdough fix as well (deleting all CCAS script instances with the SaveCleaner tool), but it didn’t work.

 

IDK if this helps with diagnostic, but the Live Another Life quest “A Second Chance” does get completed, and it updates my journal and removes my clothes as though it had worked properly, but it doesn’t teleport me to the appropriate location (or make my character pregnant, if that’s supposed to be part of the start); instead I just wake up naked in front of the same bed in the Abandoned Prison cell.

Another question - do you have SexLab Stories installed?

 

It is probably unclear from the requirements, but Stories is used as a broker to send CCAS scenarios to their respective mods. 

Without it, the CCAS Parasites start won't work.

I have SexLab Stories Devious (IDK if it’s a separate thing from regular SexLab Stories). It’s currently just below CCAS in my load order, so maybe that’s the cause?

i don't know what went wrong here... have everyting installed.... but as soon as i test it for example the chaurus queen items/skin this happens. Using skyrim LE . body is CBBE

Devious is an add-on to Stories. You need Stories for the base mod and CCAS scenarios.

[b00tyblues]

DBF, I saw earlier in the thread that you mentioned you use iNeed and are trying to modify the acid digest to count as soup consumption to satisfy thirst and hunger. This gave me a completely different idea borrowing a mechanic from iNeed: Placeable Egg Sacs/piles

 

In iNeed there is an option to buy/craft water buckets that you can place anywhere using a message menu to position them, and that let you refill water skins. I wonder if it would be possible to do a similar feature in Parasites, where using a lesser power will consume eggs and then add a placeable egg sac into your misc inventory. Selecting the item in your inventory would direct you to the placement feature/message box, where you could adjust the positioning.

 

It's mostly just a small cosmetic feature/potentially harvestable source of eggs, but it would be nice for RP purposes of gradually "terraforming" skyrim into a home more suitable for the chaurus.  Maybe more eggs = larger egg sacs and organic "structures" that you could place anywhere (especially in interiors), without needing to edit the cells themselves (lore-wise the full process would take hundreds of years, but you could at least start off with a few spires here and there lol). Or maybe larger structures could borrow some of the crafting/placement mechanics from Hearthfires (or certain furniture from DD), depending on how complex they get.

Whoops, I must have missed that. Well, that one works now, though I have to say, I was kind of surprised to see that it just puts you at the start of the Lastelle quest—considering the description, I would’ve thought it would do something similar to the other chaurus breeder start, maybe next to the Queen in the Frostflow Lighthouse tunnels or something. However, I have some issues with several of the other SexLab Stories starts, devious or otherwise.

 

The following prompts seem to work mostly fine:

 

“I am the pet of a necromancer.” (However, when he says that he puts bindings on me, no bindings appear.)

“I am a cow in a milk farm.” (Strangely enough, since I don’t have Milk Mod Economy installed.)

“I am a brood maiden for a chaurus.” (Again, this prompt is kind of misleading considering where it actually starts you.)

“I am and ancient Nord queen.” (The ghost effect causes some glitchy white boxes to appear on the sides of my character’s head, though.)

”I am a chaurus egg breeder.”

 

The following prompts behave strangely:

 

“I am an Alicia, promised to Lord Sanguine.” The quest journal says I woke up in a strange garden and need to find out where I am, but I wake up in Haelga’s Bunkhouse basement. If I try to exit to Riften, the game locks up (infinite load screen).

“I am a spriggan host, devoted to Kyne.” I thought this was supposed to make use of the spriggan infection mechanic from Kyne’s Blessing, but there is nothing equipped to my character, or any spriggan-themed effect, so I’m very curious as to what this start is supposed to be. Also, the two nearby spriggans in the starting area are hostile.

 

The following prompts don’t work at all, and lock up while trying to load them:

 

“I am a sexbot waking up in a Dwemer forge.”

“I am a prostitute in the Red Wave brothel.” I got it to work on a different save file, but got a CTD not long after.

Update: I fixed the CTDs and lock ups. Those were entirely on my end, and not a problem with SexLab Stories or CCAS. The sexbot start seems to put you in a room with hostile Falmer and chaurus, however, which makes it borderline unplayable considering I have Requiem LOL. I still have an issue with characters supposed to put bindings on me not actually putting the bindings on, in the necromancer’s pet start and elsewhere—e.g. when Lastelle kisses you and put a chaurus worm in you after you return from seeing Danica, it doesn’t work. Also, I’m still just as puzzled about the Alicia and spriggan host starts.

 

Another thing: I said before that pheromone potions in Kyne’s Blessing were inconsistent, but now they don’t seem to work for me at all. I think I used 50+ chaurus pheromones on the chaurus stud northwest of the abandoned shack without getting it to work. I noticed afterwards that you had added the option to just give Lastelle the pheromones without luring a chaurus back to her, which ended up being a real lifesaver.

So i tried out every amor/body item from this mod, everytime i equip them the triangles appear, this had never happend before, could the reason be that i miss something?

the parasites from estrus chauruas works fine... it is only the armors/item from this mod ( personally i like this mod and i want to continue the quest but this  feels like a gamebreaker to me).

 

Edit.: Problem solved.... ^^

Same here. Also the milk-related notifications continue after taking the armor off via MCM, not sure if that's intended

Update 2: I completely rebuilt my load order from scratch, and now I have all the CCAS starts working properly, with SD+ enslavement functionality and all. Alicia start actually starts in Sanguine’s garden, sexbot start Falmers aren’t hostile anymore, etc. The only issue is with the spriggan host start, wherein the spriggans are still hostile and I have no effect tying in with the quest description. I do get the quest “A New Life”, with the objective “embrace your new form and purpose”, but nothing happens. I tried infecting myself with spriggan infection via MCM, but it didn’t work, so could it be a problem with Kyne’s Blessing?

 

I have two additional unrelated questions:

 

1. NPCs in your mods (Kyne’s Blessing, SexLab Stories) aren’t affected by my skin/hair/etc. mods, and I’m not sure why that is, because they seem to be using regular base assets, and in my mind, if I were to use a mod to change that base asset (e.g. Shiva’s Vanilla Hair Replacer), I would expect it to work for mod NPCs as well. My understanding of xEdit is very basic, so I’m not sure what I could do to fix it; any tips?

 

2. I wasn’t even aware of the tentacle armour talking to you lol. Are there more features like this which are kind of hidden behind longer wait times? Better yet, do you have a document or something listing 100% of the functionalities of this mod? I’d really like to make sure that I’ve tried everything this mod has to offer (I’ll get around to your other ones eventually lol).

The spriggan start probably needs fixes now that I moved the quest to Parasites.

 

Some NPCs have their own body to make them easier to customize. You will have to extract the folders from the BSA archive and replace the meshes there.

 

Documentation is hard to maintain. There are some notes and walkthrough on the wiki in Github. You can take a look here if you haven't already:

That is normal.. the milking devices are there to make lactation more efficient, but the lactation effect is independent and can be developed and maintained naturally.

The chaurus pheromone pacifying effect still has a lot of issues. I added ways to bypass that quest stage completely by giving the potion to Lastelle and telling her to find her own chaurus stud.

The issue with equipping devices with Pet is probably a problem with Devious Devices. Make sure you have DD5.1 installed.

I will check the code on my end.

 

The Milk Farm is part of Stories Devious and has no link to Milk Mod Economy. 

 

The Brood Maiden vs Chaurus Breeder will make sense if you have Parasites installed. In Stories, Chaurus Breeders are captive of the falmers and used to breed forcibly with chaurus. In Parasites, the Brood Maiden is about giving yourself willingly to nurture chaurus eggs and breen with them.

 

The Ancient Nord Queen is up high on my list of mods to revisit and finish.

[Arcane Wanderer]

I've hit something in the "Chaurus Queen and the Brood Maiden" quest.  Activating the Elder Roots Avatar in Kyne Sanctuary doesn't do anything for me.  I do have Nettlebane equipped.   However, I didn't get the face huggers because I have 85% poison resist.

 

Are the face huggers necessary?

I did have DD5.1, but maybe it was a problem with my load order. As I said in my second update, all of that works fine now (except the spriggan quest). I’m sorry for having solicited so much attention for problems which were ultimately all on my end.

I just reread the CCAS page, and yes, that was a misunderstanding on my part. I apologize.

The thing is, considering the phrasing of the prompt (“I am a brood maiden for a chaurus”), I expected to start already in the role of brood maiden, and not at the beginning of the quest to become a brood maiden. So compared with the chaurus breeder start, the difference could have been that you have slightly nicer living quarters and aren’t enslaved to a Falmer.

Of course, squash the bugs first (pun intended lol) and then move on to bigger ideas down the line. I'm just spitballing a potential ideas to implement.

 

On a similar note of craftable egg sacs/structures, another idea I came up with is a craftable "tent" similar to that in campfire or some of the other camping mods. Basically it'd be a placeable/removeable structure with an entrance to a custom-made interior cell to act as your base (or no interior if you just want a small tent outdoors). Another idea for a structure would be one that could spawn a bunch of chaurus from a single point that's activated with a lesser power or spell. That way you can fulfill the goal of zerg-rushing the thalmor haha

The face huggers are not necessary. They are just there to give you a fighting chance against the poison gas.

 

The Elder Root Avatar come later... with Nettlebane in hand, you are supposed to find the source of the corruption -

Spoiler

an old saw jammed in the green roots next to the Avatar.

Pick up the saw and the poison gas should go away.

I went to sleep in a dungeon and the face hugger event happened, but it didn't get equipped (not in inventory) even tho the quest to remove it started and the Mod Menu shows that the parasite is present.
Using a mod that can give me any item, i tried giving myself the parasite and equipping it manually, and everithing worked (it is in the inventory and is visible in 3rd person).

I guess the mod just failed to give it to me and equip it, but everything else started? How can i fix this?

To reset it, try using the menu from Parasite and check/uncheck the face hugger parasite.

I can check and unckeck the face hugger, but the item is never given to me / equipped (and the quest to cure it remains, i don't know if that is normal).
Also, if i try to activate other parasites from the menu, nothing happens: the parasite is still unchecked when i re-enter the menu, nothing is equipped and no quest has started, unlike with the face hugger...
The save is quite fresh, so i don't know what could cause this
Thanks for the support
