Is there anything extra I need to do when updating to Experimental_SexLabCreaturesV1-66bToSLALConversion_v2 from v1 on an ongoing playthrough or just replace and it will be fine?

rerun fnis and re-register the animations, v2 removes the more jankier of the old animations* and adds MNC cum effects to the remaining ones.

 

*Billyy's packs have far better alternatives to the animations that got removed.

Idk what happened, first when I was on V16.1C, the schlongs on creatures was visible, but later when I updated it to the latest v16.1E, the schlongs on creatures disappeared. What could have happened? 
I would also very much like to test this theory out - but I, being stupid, deleted the previous version.

 

the C version is still on the google drive link. (the 3rd download down)

but have you tried going to the Creature Framework MCM and clicking on "Re-register all mods"?

So I reinstalled the previous version and then re-registered all mods in Creature Framework and luckily got distracted for few minutes, because the schlongs became visible after around a minute or two, thanks lol

Dear @MadMansGun, would you please be so kind and consider to decouple SLAL animations and the main menu replacer from MoreNastyCritters? I hope you don't get this the wrong way, but I honestly believe that those assets don't belong in a "framework" mod like this. It would also bring the main mod size down a bit  Thank you for your hard work for all those years <3

I am trying to add this to NGVO 7.1 and no matter what I do I can't get the penises to appear on any creatures... Any common issues that would cause this i can troubleshoot?

Hi, it's completely safe to remove the file from the mod's path:

 

meshes\interface\logo

 

This will restore your preferred main menu screen.

Hello MadMansGun, I think there was a vanilla creature race not registered in the mod, specifically the C06WolfSpiritRace which you fight at the end of the Companion quest line.

Also I don't know if you already noticed this, but all the Hearthfire pets have script attached to them that automatically shrink them back. I saw you edited them in the mod but you didn't remove the attached script.

ok I have everything working except canines... what could cause this?

Go to your dentist, those may need sharpening.  😁

Always show some teeth, so people do not take advantage. 

 

Spoiler

If you mean the animations, then it is a Pandora issue, because it works with FNIS. 

If you mean the mesh do not have the bits, maybe you have a dogs\wolfs mod messing it that need a patch.  A few patches in the compatibility archive in downloads.

Lol, it's the mesh not applying. I'm using NGVO 7.1 as a base and it has something... somewhere... that is messing up the canines however it's not showing up in conflicts... hmmm

Use SSeedit to assist in finding the metadata conflict. With a full loaded list, start looking creature races changes and later with the NPC records.  The filter works if you know how to use it, it is tricky. 

 

New added "canine" npc maybe a new custom race, depends on the mod. 

 

Wolf NPC metadata modyfied by Skytest.  That mod move it from the CreatureFaction to a custom Faction. Any mod that use the CreatureFaction faction as a condition will not use\effect that NPC.  In the race section it removed MNC scaling and make the Foxes (also canines) use wolf skin. This is an example.

This is for the noobs,  Can you notice the fuckup issue?

I fixed it! thank you. NGVO had a mod that said it only altered wolf textures however after an inspection it also altered the meshes so I had overlooked it before. All fixed now, I'm a busy modlist user so i'm not very expereienced with solving my own issues but I certainly learned something today.

Yes, I have bad experiences before with mods like Skytest, that alter more than what it describes.

Great mod! I love using this. However, I have been having a constant trouble with the Werewolves and their meshes. Specifically, the tongue and cocks are disconnected and just float in the air next to the werewolf, moving disjointedly when the werewolf moves. I have Baka's ABC's and SOS installed, and have done all the steps you suggested regarding those. I even uninstalled both and just had MNC installed, and the problem is persisting. Any help would be appreciated, as I do enjoy this mod and the Werewolf Redux you did, and I want to enjoy them to the fullest ^^

classic skeleton issue, something is overriding MNC/ABC's werewolf skeleton.nif

( Data\Meshes\actors\werewolfbeast\character assets\skeleton.nif )

 

if sos or xp32 is being loaded after MNC/ABC then that is likely the cause.

Hello, I was relieved when I switched from the old version to MoreNastyCrittersSE&AE_v16_1E and reinstalled the animation-related components, and the skeleton monsters displayed correctly... but then after adjusting the character armor, syncing the body, and reinstalling PG patcher, the skeletons became transparent again... I reinstalled the old version of MNC and set up the environment again, and the skeletons displayed normally... Incidentally, this time I only changed MNC and CF to the old versions...

PG patcher

well there's your problem right there

 

Quote

This led me to develop PGPatcher to solve all of these cases. PGPatcher is a dynamic patcher primarily responsible for managing how meshes in your load order are configured for various materials in Skyrim. In basic terms, as a user you can install whatever retexture mods you want (whether that be vanilla, parallax, complex material, or PBR), and then let PGPatcher patch your meshes and plugins to make it all work in-game. You no longer should install prepatched meshes nor auto parallax as PGPatcher will take care of that for you. In addition, mixing and matching different shader types is supported. PGPatcher is capable of applying different shaders to the same mesh, and also handle alternate texture records which might need different shaders/properties through a comprehensive mesh permutation system. On top of these things, PGPatcher provides some optional convenience patchers, such as an automated fixed mesh lighting patcher, autoconversion from parallax to complex material, and a lot more. See the patchers wiki page for a full list.

in other words that thing is fucking with all of your mesh files.

Thank you for your reply! So that's the cause, I understand. I'll pay attention to that part from now on. Thank you for the advice!

If you are going to troubleshoot it. 

The feature Optimize Meshes can make meshes invisible or transparent. 

The faster way to know is disabling the PgPatcher's output folder from being deployed and overwriting everything.

 

Spoiler

Redo the patching by setting for output folder location mode. Disable all features labeled (experimental) and the Pre-Patchers. 

Also, make use of "Mesh Block list" to blacklist mesh folders from processing (advanced).  

 

Use of the output folder is necessary to isolate the modifications. If you do not make use of it, then the modifications happens on all the deployed files. When the affected mods are reinstalled\redeployed the changes are rolled back with new meshes, kind of obvious.

I was able to solve the problem by removing the "Upgrade Parallax to Complex Material" patch when generating the PG patcher, and then limiting the generation to buildings and terrain, and deleting any data related to meshes\actors that was generated! Thank you! However... when skeletons with MNC-like genitalia swing weapons, the bone genitalia stretch and behave in a strange way... but... it's not that big of a problem, although it did make me laugh.

Pandora used to do that to draugs taunt animations.
