Just Business [WIP]

[Will55]

Long term successful user of JB here (403 current slaves) with an old but increasing problem: the slave who follows you everywhere no matter what you order them to do.

Initially they turn up in combat and one saved my bacon multiple times by her arrival and I was quite cut when she became unconscious and nothing I tried could save her.

 

Now I have 2 following me around nonstop: I up-armored and well armed both but neither sneak and both are stimpak sinks but moreso I have no privacy where ever I go as getting away from my current mistress for a night or more with or without playing up is now impossible as she knows where I went.

 

I order them to go to a settlement and they totally ignore my orders. I thought of using them as caravaners but as they won't go to the settlement unless I take them personally(which I shall try) this may be pointless. I do not wish to use the "easy solution" as they seem infatuated with my PC and to just kill them because of this is dreadful so any idea of what I can do? Personally, I wish I could free them to join the Minute men. Why is there no freeing  mechanism in JB?

I had that issue. I was able to solve it by telling them to go to whatever settlement then hitting wait on a piece of furniture for 24-48 hours and afterwards they were gone.

Many thanks for that I will try it next time.

Do you think it's possible to make a patch for this mod to work with female super mutant( https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/91731 )

What do I do with a runaway? Seems most every attempt ends with me killing them.

 

Tried hunter mode and remarking but no dice.

you need to turn that off as its broken - its in the debug section of the mcm.   Just find the runaway slave and kill them, there is nothing else you can do with them unfortunately

Hello I have a question. 

I play Fallout 4 with Controller and when I'm in hunter mod I can not mark an npc with the A Button.

Can anyone help me? 

 

Sorry for my not so good English it's not my native language.

been a while since i tried this so all i can do is suggest trying to mark them while sneaking,

or check the MCM to see what key is needed.

Thanks! Actually, I was able to retake the slave. She was frogtied and couldn't move. I went into the MCM and turned off the slave escape option and then went back in and was able to enter her inventory, take off the frog tie gear and she went back to being a "normal" slave.  I would have killed a normal slave but it was Red Tourette :).

@Metalhead666

 

was in the game earlier and if you are using a X-Box controller it is not the A button used to mark them it is the X button,

and i did not see a remap option.

is there a patch for female supermutants by chance?

 

https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/91731

 

Short answer - probably not, but you could easily make one yourself by editing a formlist in FO4Edit

 

Better answer - find the Female Super Mutants mod that's here on LL.  It uses almost exactly the same models (only difference is the version here they have feet, the Nexus version they have hooves), has less requirements, and has a Just Business patch.

Any way to make settlers not ignore slaves made into prostitutes? I don't understand why I have an entire settlement full of men who won't touch the slaves. 
Is there a possible conflict with Autonomy Enhanced or AAF Prostitution?

I use this and Autonomy Enhanced together without a problem.  

 

When you first tell a slave that they're going into prostitution, their prostitution skill level is 0, and they'll often get rejected.  The longer you just leave them be, the higher their skill gets, and the more customers they'll get.

I've been at my settlement for over an hour doing decorating and random building and none of them are getting approached/approaching settlers. 
I'll keep waiting, maybe it just takes a very long time.

Okay new problem. My settlers can find find clients but AAF scenes don't play. The hooker and client  just walk around each and nothing happens.

@Jordan_Dexter0

 

a few notes that might be helpful

 

make sure to turn slave escape off in the MCM as it does not work right when recapturing them

 

slaves getting clients sometimes takes a while when they first start prostitution (i had one slave take over 5 game days to get the first successful client interaction)

usually if i leave that cell for 2-3 game days they will start getting clients (you can check thier inventory for caps to see if they are actually getting paying clients)

 

the no scene actually playing sounds like AAF was looking for a specific combination of tags and did not find it.

the ones i would suggest to check if you have installed is the one listed in the OP (theme for kinky animations), Leito's, and Savage Cabbage's animations.

these are the only ones i can positively identify for certain playing fine in my game through JB prostitution.

 

the AAF manual has a section listing animation packs (there are over 15 different ones)

https://www.loverslab.com/topic/139374-aaf-the-fucking-manual-~-adult-oriented-setup-guide-~-3rdjuly2025/

the one listed in the OP is number 11 in the AAF Fucking Manual, numbers 12-30 list more animation packs,

number 18 and 19 you should probably only have 1 of those (check others to see as well)

Still broken for latest update? 

[cafici7333]

Running on the pre-nextgen update version of fo4, I ran into something last night, I decided to start decorating with my slaves (Posing, arranging, adding to devices, etc) and I could only find two ways to keep them to stay still, tai which freezes their animations, and setrestrained 1 which is finicky and seems to sometimes just cancel itself every now and then when waiting. 

But that's not the real kicker, the real issue was that after all of that posing, I found that if I fast traveled anywhere, all of the slaves marked with setrestrained would travel with me, still locked in place but, obviously, displaced.

I'm not sure what would cause this, though granted I don't know the context where setrestrained is typically used, so maybe this is vanilla behavior, but either way, does anyone know A: if there's a fix to this or if this issue's come up before? And/or B: Does anyone have a better alternative to posing settlers? Specifically for assigning settlers/slaves to objects like 3poles and other devices, plus posing mats

I dunno why I just had the same issue. Everything had always ran smoothly, today Judge Zeller escaped from Bunker Hill, I captured him like usual, and after that he won't stop following me. I tried everything I could: Shooting him and talking to him again, changing him to different settlements, waiting on furniture like someone suggested, and nothing. 

 

FIX: There's an option to reset the NPC in INFO tab. Use it, and then order them to move to any settlement, that will fix them.

If anyone finds a solution for this, it would be awesome.

Personally I think that allowing them and other good slaves like them, to join the MinuteMen would be ideal

Hello, my slave has ran away, and I found her, but I don't know how to get her to follow me or get back to base. I shock her with her collar, I try to interact with her, but she just keeps on running. I had my companion with me, so perhaps that was the reason I couldn't interact with her. I got her when I dismissed my companion and she got wounded by some sinth. I tried turning on hunter mode, but that also didn't help. Could anyone help clarify for me how retrieval of the slaves should work? Thanks

The "runaway slave" bit of this mod is broken.  It's best to just turn it off in MCM.

If I recall, to keep that slave, you'll need to reload a save where she hasn't started to run.

 

[cockroach666]

unable to modify the collars at an armor bench. i have all required mods installed, but all crafted shock collars are just named 'shock collar'; is there a console command for firmware dump?

[DemonSlut]

idk if theres a fix for this I was using the mod before the update and it was working fine. After the ng update. I downgraded my game and for some reason. The dialogue for sending the slaves to a settlement no longer exists. And when I say relax here in a settlement they walk all the way back to where i got them. So now they with me all the time lol
