Devious Devices

[deff.]

Lot of posts here, so I will ask stright - DD changes FG body to skinny preset. I have RC9 + FG Devious devices RC. Without equipped DD body is normal. With equipped it changes to skinny. DD are batchbuilded with my FG preset. What I am missing?

Maybe you build CBBE DD 2.0 items located in DD 2.0 CE9 and rewrite Fusion girl bodyslide?

You left the CBBE body reference on the corset

While i check archive to be sure, that i not left it, i found that some items have body, when those not should. Fill fix in last version, when clear a bodyslide items from unused.

I start discussion as i promise.

To the all mod makers:

When you use libs.equipdevice(libs.player,libs.DD_Harness_Latex_Inventory,libs.DD_Harness_Latex_Rendered,false) with disable check correct DD items equip - it leads to damaged restraints as without check it unequipped previous equipped rendered device. So it triggers many errors and can end in item equip loop.

So i force this variable always be true. It should not equip device, if other device is in way.

So there is question - this check not takes so many time and also should we equip device by force, if it can end with damaged item?

nah, I'm an idiot. Didn't noticed, that there is a separate group in bodyslide outfit section. Everything is fine now. Thank you

If two items use same slot and you can't safely remove the equipped one then yes, you should prevent equipping new items with same slot.

It works in DD in other way

Says there is equipped Corset. Slot 36(U)

Device keyword Harness, Subitemtype corset

Someone calls equip Harness. Slot 36(U)

Device keyword Harness

So if it calls using true variable, then EquipDevice checks if there is equipped conflicting device and found equipped rendered device with keyword harness (corset and harness can't be equipped in one time), so it abort immediately without spawn inventory device.

If variable there is false (without hotfix) - so it not check what is equipped and straight go to spawn inventory device and equip it. Then it spawn rendered device and equip it instead of corset's rendered device. We got equipped inventory device harness and corset, rendered device harness, and invisible unequipped rendered device corset.

In reality as i added rendered devices protected system it will go in endless loop as corset will protect her rendered device and reequip it back, and also as harness found that her rendered device is unequipped, equips it back and cycle starts from start.

 

As about unequip system there will remove plugs, if belt is on the way, if variable is false. (i'm not test it mostly).

In beta 1 i enlarge some items to fit upper catsuit.

 

Sounds like you adjusted the meshes of "some items" so they could be worn in combination with the catsuit and not show any of the catsuit clipped through those items? Without knowing which ones you altered, it's hard to know what to test in order to find out if the FG version has the same problems as the CBBE version did.

In Beta 2 i delete boots from corset and use other meshes included in DD 2.0 not to change original corset with boots. All new items in bodyslide files contains word Large and are in group DeviousDevicesCatsuitFit -> file DeviousDevicesCatsuitFit.xml (in latest beta 2 mega archive)

 

Just to be clear, you removed the boot and body meshes from the restrictive corsets? I suppose the corsets will now need to rely on refining and expanding their mesh to avoid clipping with extreme body proportions, since zapping the covered parts of the body mesh will no longer be an option? (I assume that's why Kimy combined them originally.)

 

Also I'm not clear on what this (the change to corsets) has to do with catsuits, and what new items you mean. Or was that last sentence related to your comment about beta 1 rather than beta 2?

 

Anyway, I guess users can test out the current FG conversion, and if they encounter specific bugs and can explain what problems they're seeing exactly, I'll try to implement solutions and upload a new version.

Are you having any problems with the 1.3.4 version? If so, let me know what's lacking and I can work on another update.

So far I've found no real problems. I've tried just about device in the new DD update last night. Only the neck brace stuff seemed a bit off when I put it on clipping into the shoulders.. Otherwise everything converted perfectly as far as I've seen.

Ok, we should avoid that at any cost 😅. Endless loop will result in CTD + huge stack-dump after a while.

Thanks, I'll see what I can do to replicate and possibly address that.

 

Also, anyone who's interested is welcome to take over that conversion and improve it. My skills with Outfit Studio are rudimentary at best, I merely followed some video tutorials and updated it to a newer FG body and to try accommodating the ongoing DD development work after wdaigle had stopped maintaining it. These days I'm more involved in working on my own mods, and have limited time to dedicate to any substantial overhaul of that DD+FG+HHS conversion should something significant need changing in it.

Just a question, can I choose which DD's I use in game? Such as an MCM choice?

Thank you ..Yes, I have been using the manual (am new to the game), but I must have skipped over the Roggir somehow, couldn't see for lol

If you use latest DD 2.0 CE9 beta2, then corset is only for CBBE. For CBBE need build corset from DeviousDevicesCatsuitFit group and name of Corset contains large.

[Koopstaknicca21]

👍 thank you

The plugs magically multiply for me, but I still have Beta 1 installed. I'm now installing Beta 2 and hope that the problem no longer occurs.

Clean save not necessary, but highly recommended.

If you use old save, before update, unlock all DD items from player and NPC. As those have old scripts and properties and will work wrong. And delete from game.

I made some easy tool, what deletes all DD items from container, NPC, or player. Just need put this item into container. Item name is DD item remover and can be crafted in Chemistry station or DD restraint bench in Miscellaneous Items section. Plugin will be added to this post.

To update mod, first delete old DD and install new.

In the chemistry station I only find a settings tool for DD, but no remover. Does that mean the settings tool?

 

Done, instead of looking in “Miscellaneous” I looked in “Usable items” in the chemical station. Sunday blindness on my part, sorry for the unnecessary request.

this is going to be a bit of a longish post

ran into what i hope is just a typo but it might actually be a problem

upgraded to RC9 Beta 2 Hotfix last game and thought it was due to upgrading midgame (as far as i could tell everything was working)

pic taken on new game in pre-war sanctuary

Spoiler

 

started new game (from desktop through MO2) and DD is saying AAF is not installed.

checked load order and Torture Devices, then AAF, then Devious Devices (which is how i have it for a while now)

process below on stuff i tried so far (each new game was saved after making character at the point right after you set special and name)

 

1 - when i saw this again i thought it might be due to starting new game with both AAF and DD installed, so

i removed DD (and related stuff), entered game, saved game, did a solo scene, saved game, dropped to desktop

put DD back in, loaded game (yes i got the DD initialized message), did a solo scene, saved game, checked (still not reading AAF)

quit to desktop, loaded game to make sure it did not just need to load again, still not reading AAF.

 

2 - started new game without DD installed, saved game, solo scene, saved again, dropped to desktop to put DD back in.  loaded game

and waited until after DD Initialized message (and any others), did solo scene, saved, checked still not reading AAF (166 Beta 7).

 

3 - started new game again without DD installed, solo scene, saved game, drop to desktop.  put DD in again and loaded game

wait until DD is initialized, did solo scene, saved, checked and still not reading AAF (171).

 

came to thread and checked and made sure i have latest version of DD (and i do), also checked to see if anyone else reported this (did not see any).

figure i better say what is currently happening so i can find out if it is a problem, or if it is just something on my end or what is happening.

Fast answer: possible something of DD modules not activated correctly - later i will test how to check it by console.

You can test, if AAF for DD is working - put on some blindfold and start sex scene - if dark part not removed, so DD not found AAF correctly.

 

[valcon767]

old game dark not removing so DD not finding AAF.

new game is still in pre-war, and out of time tonight will check it tomorrow

Seems not working PlayerRef Script or some variables not initialized.

Also if you use MO2 you  are 100% sure that you deleted and disabled all old DD?

I have a less ideas how to fix it, but first need do some console work to get as many info for me (maybe i can made fast fix)

I need status of DD Library quest:

in console type: sqv dd_library

Quest state:

Enabled Yes

State: running

If no report back

Now i need some variables state:

sqv dd_library config

config const need be equal to DD_Config

sqv dd_library aaf

AAF_Actor_busy need be AAF_Actor_Busy

 

Now the same for Config quest

sqv dd_config

need be enabled and running.

HasAAF must be true.

 

You can check if PlayRefScript is running -ther eis AAF related thing

Equip any DD item and can even manipulate locks.

Then in console player.showinventory

Last item must equipped DD rendered device

XX01A253 - worn - locked.

now try to unequip it with console:

unequipitem XX01A253

If Playerref script is working normally it will unequip latexblinfold (this id is for it) and equip it back. If not then somehow part of playerref script not work.

sorry for the delay (rl interruptus) and for kind of butchering your post but by putting the info there you can more easily see

the answers to what you were asking for.

from what you said part of the playerref script is not working right

 

not sure if this info is helpful but if i equip the right item the events (plug, collar, gag, armbinder, trip, and handcuff) do fire as they should.

also if i insert a chain bell it makes noise as it should.  as far as i can tell (by playing) any device equipped works as intended.

all mechanics (escape, struggle, removal etc) are working as far as i know.  when i remove a device normally it removes the effects

of the various devices.

 

the only thing i can find that is not working right is that it does not remove the blindfold effect during AAF scenes.

i suspect any other AAF specific adjustments are not working also due to it saying HasAAF = False
