I got around that one with another mod by redownloading it and trying again. Might be worth a shot. Second time it just worked

existe algum link alternativo que não seja o do MEGA , ele fica dizendo que o limite de download foi atingido

From where you take DD 5.1 AIO installation archive?

hi again, i tried using DD 5.1 but the popup still appeared. I havent been using cursed loot at all in the past, so I havent tried that yet, are the two mandatory to work?

 

No, it's not required.

 

Uninstall all versions of DD, and all patches you have for DD. You've got something overriding scripts that have been fixed.

Install only the 5.1 installer from the first post on this page.

 

What mod manager are you using?

I'm using Vortex. It reports no conflicts, except for Zaz, which loads before DD. I uninstalled DD, deleted it, and removed zadNPCQuestScript from the scripts folder, then re-installed. Plug-ins all good. All dependencies satisfied, according to Vortex.

 

GenerateFNISforUsers SE gave me: ">>Warning: AnimationList found in  "Animations\FNIS_PCEA2", but no corresponding Behavior file. Incomplete mod IGNORED.<<  I don't know what that means. I deleted FNIS_PCEA2 a long time ago because Vortex said it was completely overwritten by other mods. I also deleted the scripts from the scripts folder. There is no mention of it in the animationsdatasinglefile or the animationsetdatasinglefile, so I don't know where this is coming from. 

 

I also ran the USSEP Unwanted Effects Removerr.  No change upon reboot.

 

The scripts folder is full of DD scripts, but I have no idea how to activate them.

 

You've got leftover PCEA2 animations somewhere if FNIS is still seeing it. You might ask on that mod page how to clean it up properly. It's probably unrelated to this. If you have animation issues later on, you'll need to fix it before looking for more animation help.

 

What is your mod load order? Should be:

Devious Devices - Assets.esm

Devious Devices - Integration.esm

Devious Devices - Expansion.esm

Devious Devices - Contraptions.esm

Devious Devices For Him.esp (optional)

Devious Devices - BRRF.esp (optional)

Devious Devices SE patch.esp

 

If you undeploy mods, do you still have zad scripts in your data folder? Might be worth it to delete the entire data folder from your skyrim install and revalidate files in steam

Then redeploy mods and reinstall DD.

Im not sure what i missed, but my character got locked in a belt for the cursed collar quest, but neither it nor the collar show up in the devious devices mod's list, and bandits still bang her in ways that shouldnt be possible. When i do select the devices cursed loot msde her wear in the list in DD, they vanish, to return when i disable again. What am i missing?

 

What list are you talking about? DD doesn't list devices that are worn, just the possible events. Do you mean device types in Device Hider? That's just visual.

If you mean DD Equip, that's not this mod.

 

The sex animation filter for bound animations should prevent inappropriate animations, unless you turned off that option. All that DD will do is hide the device during animations in that situation.

The load order was good.  But for some reason, Vortex thinks the program is for a different game.  That's what the patch is for, I guess.

 

The creator of FNIS PCEA2 retired from modding three years ago and there have been no updates since then. I don't know why I installed it in the first place. Probably, it's required for another mod I will now have to do without. No bug reports at all, but 1,422 posts that I should have paid closer attention to. Maybe I can find some solution buried in the comments, otherwise I will probably have to start the game over.

 

If this wasn't the cause of the problem, I don't know what was. I seem to recall some mods (Teen Dolls?) overwrote part of Zaz, but if that were the cause, quite a lot of people would be having this problem.

[Faustling]

The posts in the PCEA2 forum were no help, but I finally dug out all of the old files. Then, I uninstalled and reinstalled DD, and because the extended skeleton somehow got messed up during this, I uninstalled and reinstalled it too. Then I ran the FNIS tool. Vortex said it as good, and the FNIS tool found no problems. But the bug is still there, the same as before.

 

At this point, I think I should uninstall everything and start a new game. But this will be my third attempt, and I have no idea how this happened, so how do I know it won't happen again?

DLL applies to all versions, so i'm ok with that. I won't be providing the old mod though.

 

SO maybe if u could upload the dll for skse 2.0.15 . I swept though the forum and unfortunately all the mega links for the older version of ddls are down. 

[iamwookie]

For those having issue and using Vortex 

I can confirm that both DD 5.1 and DCL 9 work without issues in Vortex.

So the issues are either other mods overwriting when they shouldn't/Download issues/etc

 

The Designed for a Different Game is because of the Form, and the warning doesn't matter in this case as long as you are sure you grabbed the SE version.

 

I do have a Mod Rule setup so that DD loads after Zaz (Another Mod uses Zaz so I still need it)

I'm gonna convert Devious Devices into TBD.

But I'm quite not sure which outfit I should put SMP physics on.

I'm thinking I should put TBD SMP on the outfit which covers Chest~Thigh.

It means I'm not gonna put the physics on collar, armbind, shoes, gloves...

I'll just convert body from CBBE to TBD.

 

Any advice on which outfits NOT to apply physics?

[recentcabbage]

Came across a problem with the feet shackle missing texture. I guessed the cause is:

mesh/zaz/zazanklechainsragdolls_1_go.nif

point to

textures\devious\cursedloot\mixedzazmetals01.dds(checked in outfit studio)

,but I don't have cursedloot.

Earlier in the thread OP posted a fix that will let the metal textures show without having Cursed Loot.

I don't remember. Do you see it on a new game, or with only DD and it's requirements?

No old DD patches installed?

Nothing overwriting DD?

Did you remove DD 4.3 if you had it before installing 5.1?

 

 

Looks like zadlibs may be incorrect:

 

ERROR: Method ReEquipExistingDevice not found on zadlibs. Aborting call and returning None

ERROR: Method CleanupDevices not found on zadlibs. Aborting call and returning None

 

I'd expect this with an old DD version of that script, or an old SLIF patch. If you use SLIF, i've got updated patches on the troubleshooting post.

 

So I found the failure it's DeviousAdventuresSE which caused it. It seems pretty unstable and buggy after I read the comment section.

Does anyone know an alternative mod?

i don't believe I have any patches for DD, unless you mean DD assets, expansions and equip. I also downloaded v5.1 from the mega link in the file page.

Thanks for your help, then it's strange that they didnt fix the problem for a long time.

I figured out 'cursedlot' here was not the mod but a folder in DD/texture later on, and solved the problem simply by dragging the cursedloot folder from old DD texture. 

[Faustling]

I was finally was able to construct some zbfcuffs, so I guess DD is now working for me. Most of the other items don't show up yet, but I suppose they will when I have more smithing skill.

 

It was quite a long struggle, with many false starts. In case it happens again, I think I should write down the nature of the problem.  The problem was with the Character Making Extender, which is required by the Race Menu, which is required by XP32 Maximum Skeleton Extended, which is required by DD. The Character Making Extender is obsolete, so installing it corrupts all the mods that depend on it. However, I was able to identify four files which are obsolete and can be manually removed without harm. Having done that, I had to uninstall and reinstall all of the dependent mods, in order to get DD working. I am surprised this hasn't happened before.

 

Now, I can finally start to have some fun.

ECE is not a requirement for Racemenu, at all, never has been. And indeed, the ECE install gives the user several versions of the dll for the different game versions, so unless users remove them manually they'll fail to load and probably produce a crash at game launch, a poor install design imo.

I can't wait for you to do so   I'm so tired of the cbbe meshes on the tbd body... simply doesn't work

So, thank you.

For what not to use physics on, maybe the chasity belts? If they have pyhsics and would jiggle around it would look unreal, wouldn't it?

As i know a little of physics if you don't use physics on belts, it's not jiggle but if butt or belly have physics it will jiggle into chastity belt and clipping in movement.

You must choose between two evils: jiggle a belts, or clipping a belts.

Found another issue with the UUNP bodyslides for the pony boots. In the esp they have only slot 37 but the nif has 37 and 38, so the calves part will be invisible.
