quest Thief

[dws89]

Hello, A quick question. Made it to Solitude and checked the "sex Statistics" for the first time and it had stopped after the old man in Whiterun.  All of Falkreath and anything else up to Solitude didn't register. Is there a way to get it to update? or is it maybe a conflict? Thanks

There are stats now?  When did that get added?

If I had to guess, Dogma simply hasn't gotten around to adding the code to every scene yet.  It's a new feature, and updating a stats page requires that every single scene which would necessitate a change to the stats have at least one script modified.  That takes time.

OK, won't concern myself with it then. Thanks for the quick response.

I downloaded this mod on my new PC to skip to Whiterun, but I have a problem. When I follow and run to catch the thief outside the Bannered Mare, as the old man says to go to the gate, nothing happens outside the gate there is no one there. Before my old PC mod, there was always the thief who stole the horse and ran away as the meter bar appeared to catch him, but in this new one, there is nothing, just the traveler’s horse. So my question is: Do I need to complete some quests? Because I used the skip option in a new game after the intro, I don't have Alternate Start or anything, just a few mods totaling under 200 for now. 

I´m on the same situation. Could someone pls help us, or pass a save after that script??

Any chance we could get some more brothels for our whore to work at?  Captain Stanius, in Riften, mentions going to the brothels.   A brothel in Riften would certainly fit in,

That would be a huge amount of effort to implement, for something that has no story value.  The story only goes to Riften at the beginning and at the end.  In the former case, the player would never have enough corruption to work at a brothel intentionally, and there's no reasonable method at that point in the story that she would end up as a slave.  In the latter case, the player has all of the information she needs to complete the story, there is no reason for her to work at a brother and again no method for her to become a slave.

While the first visit to Riften has already been re-done (and therefore it's unlikely anything will be added again), there are some things in Riften that Dogma has left incomplete in the ending portion of the story.  The only scene that I know for certain was intended but never done involves getting help from a smith to remove the shackles left over from the Serpent's Maw, but if I recall correctly that it intended to work with any of the vanilla male blacksmiths in any of the major cities.

I'm certainly not aware of any space in the story where a brothel in Riften might fit, and even if there were it would need to be a very big hole to be worth the amount of effort necessary to build a whole Cell and all of the NPCs, packages, nav meshing, scripting, dialog, etc. to make it work.  It's effectively building Petit's again, but for no reason.

The only way I can conceive of this actually happening is to literally copy and paste the Petit cell and replace some of the NPCs.  Petit herself would need to be copied, along with a good chunk of dialog.  Most of the other unique NPCs, Kili, Romero, Cooli, etc. can just be deleted.  The remaining NPCs have names like "Gambler" and "Patron" and "Waitress", but they'll still need to have new references made that use distinct AI packages so that they navigate to the beds, tables, bathroom, etc. in this copy of the cell and not the other one.  I think the bit that would need the fewest changes would be the gambling minigame, which could be copied almost completely intact.

Does someone have news about dogma's progress on his updates? 

[wer4444]

Stuck in hp_sw_arena. Opponent won't aggro. I confirmed tai is active and tgm is off. I also tried setting IsBlueLose_var to 1, but the script isn't picking it up. Any commands to force lose the match? or debug why oppenent isn't attacking?

Next version should be nearly complete. He was expecting to release it by the end of the year. But patreons will have the first access.

Have you tried startcombat player?

new scenes for Solitude or also other stuff?

[sincara290715]

Hi guys, may I ask something? I'm currently play v1.9.0 and I've completed quests in Silentwood Village and am about head to Whiterun. Is there any new content there? I am asking because in the "What new in version 1.9.0 section", it mentions Final Version part 1 (beginning- whiterun) 

[BrummBear]

So i was searching what the hell hogs 20% of my animation slots and after several hours of searching i found out its this one. the included animations dont get overwritten by their originals and then take up two slots. any way around this? i mean... 12 000 animation slots?

Does anyone know how to catch a trophy salmon to continue Olaf the mustachioed's quest? I already talked to Orm, I got the bait from him at the tavern, I've tried several times and I can only catch a large salmon at most.

Is this trophy salmon really that random, or is there something else to do?

finally: i got it, after about 10 times

 

Can you show me step by step how to replace the clothing in Silentwood?

What?  Originals?

All you have to do is take your target clothing .nif files, copy them into the proper directory, and change the names to match the empty .nif files in the directory.  If you've ever used BodySlide you're about halfway there already.

the leito ones. i only had a quick look in the files, saw them and concluded there must be more. but seems like those few files are the full extend. so this mod comes with almost 12k original animations. oof.

[Skyrimor]

Been awhile since I played the mod, so I didn't touch the final version at all currently and I've a question. Did Dogma added some content to that loose end, where you promised the old fuck from Whiterun that you will return, but ultimately don't, or that segment is still left unfinished?

Thief is best played without having SexLab installed in the same playthrough.

Kinda?  If the player character gets pregnant, then he ends up as one of the possible fathers.  There is a little more content involving him as a result.  Honestly I think it's still more or less a loose thread, but we'll see if anything else gets added.

Yeah, there are a few dozen files or so that were used before Dogma started doing custom animations.  I think at this point even those have been replaced, although they may have been left in the archive instead of being deleted.  Thief is a really, really big mod these days, and a single scene may have nearly a hundred anim files related to shifting from one position to another.

Under normal circumstances, it only occurs every few days.  Have you looked at the MCM to see what your settings are as far as when the next one occurs?

[thegoodbuoy0]

I am in solitude at the point where the PC asks Elisif to pardon the thief. There is a popup which says "wait for the thief in the streets" but I am not getting the exact marker on where to wait. Talking to the thief in the solitude jail after also doesn't make the marker appear. Can anyone please help me ? Any screenshot on the specific to wait at? or Are there any console commands to trigger the next sequence of events ?

 

Edit : Nevermind I am dumb lol. The marker should appear when you choose the "belly of the beast" quest in the journal.

I believe in a post Dogma said that not all the scenes update those statistics, but it will be implemented at a future date.

The files you need to replace are described in the mod's MCM. (After you've completed all the steps I mentioned below, go to that MCM option and activate it (do this at the end).)

example replacing the "Farm dress"

this patch folder

Data\Meshes\BD\HH\PlayerClotherAlt

FarmDressAlt_0

FarmDressAlt_1

FarmbootsAlt_1

FarmbootsAlt_0

These files can only be replaced by mods that have a single-slot "xxxxx_0.nif" and "xxxxx_1.nif" file that replaces slot 32. I don't recommend using outfit mods that have several separate pieces (top, upper, lower, etc.) because they can always cause bugs and not work correctly.

You also need to replace the file "Dress' and "boots" files.

Example of a mod where the skin outfit has a single slot 32 and feet (shoes):

https://www.patreon.com/posts/tfd-hotspring-123978149

Use the bodyslide that fits the body type you're using. (in my case is BHUNP), but other mod as DX Bikini collection also CBBE 3BA

Go to folder skin mod (ex: The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Special Edition\Data\Meshes\Games\FirstDescendant\Bikinis)

Collect the two skin outfit files  "xxxxx_0.nif" and "xxxxx_1.nif" (and don't forget get the shoes files .nif adjusted in the bodyslide) that you choose and replace them by renaming them with the files from the Dogma Thief mod (as I showed the file names above for the Farm Dress.

You may also need to change your fishing and miner outfits.

I just didn't understand why the Newbie outfits aren't used in the game yet, so I guess you can ignore that.

for miner's clothes i liked this (It becomes more immersive and explains why the miners get so horny when heroin is around.)

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/105631

You can also get the vanilla skimpy or sexy outfits that modders create to replace standard Skyrim clothing. Always remember to adjust the body slide before collecting the files you want.

Hi i have a question regarding new update. Dogma said that its focused on "pickpocket" branch. What exactly does that mean? Is it about breking into the guys house for a dibellan or something new?

I believe that it's related to the criminal who gets caught by the guards during the Solitude plotline.  In the current version, there is a scene involving Vala, the torturer, and a prisoner during which the player learns about the Skunkway, Charon, the Dibellans, etc.  I want to say that there's a single line of dialog in which Vala identifies the prisoner as a pickpocket, but I'd have to check to be sure.

Anyway, we haven't gotten many details about the content of the new stuff so I can't say anything for sure yet.
