Summary:
This is a dark themed story driven quest mod for Skyrim. Like a real story, it is split into chapters which will be added one by one as the development moves on.


Warnings (read this before downloading):
Content Warning:
The story of this mod features dark adult themes like slavery, reluctance, blackmail, non-consentual sex, humilation and so on. Its not over the top (at least not yet) stuff, but if this direction is not your cup of tea, don't bother to download it.

Full Story Code Warnings:
Prolog: Non-Consentual, Masturbation
Chapter 1: Rape, Blackmail, Humil, D/s, Beastiality (optional)

Length Warning:
Every minute you play takes several hours to create in a story driven mod. Don't expect this to be another Dawnguard. Right now the very first chapter is finished. Its more like a preview (which also means - don't expect any orgies just yet)

Bug Warning:
There are probably quite a few bugs in the mod, which I hope to find and fix of course. However many bugs are just caused by Skyrim/The Creation Kit itself. When I tested the mod, sometimes some action in a scene just failed for no reason at all and it got stuck. Most times I could compelte the mod without any problems tho - however if you get stuck in a scene or dialog, just reloading and doing it again fixes it most of the times.


FAQ:
Will this mod be continued?
Possibly.


Requirements:
You need to have these mods installed:
Also:
  • You need to TURN ON SUBTITLES in your settings
  • You need to have a FEMALE PLAYER CHARACTER

Incompabilities:
Custom Skeletons are very likely not going to work / fit with the mods animation. For the XP32 Maximum Skeleton there is a compatibilty mode: Select the Dark Investigation Settings Spell in your Magic Menu and turn on this mode if you are using this skeleton. The vanilla will provide better results however.
- While I tried to avoid messing up any vanilla quests, due to bugs and pathing issues I can't promise that I succeeded in it. Therefore I do recommend to only keep this mod loaded while you play it - it won't do anything after you have the quest done anyway. No edits on your character or anything are done.

Conflicting / Incompatible mods:
  • "See you Sleep" Mod
  • Ultimate Follower Overhaul

Installation:
1. Download and install all required mods listed above
2. Download this mod and unzip it into your data directory
3. Run the GenerateFNISforUsers.exe which was provided with FNIS and is in your /data/tools directory
4. Play smile.png


Quest:
- The quest is started by the courier. Just go into any city after the mod is loaded.


Trouble Shooting:
My custom PC looks strange / manly / bulky / is missing custom features
Move dip.esp up in the load order

Anray keeps being a follower even when he should have left already / The door guard won't let me in telling me companions are not allowed / Anray won't follow me, telling me to get rid of compainions
Disable any custom follower mods, like UFO, and restart Dark Investigations.

In scenes my PC or other Actors just stand arround like ragdolls when they should be doing something
Makes sure you have FNIS installed properly and ran the user tool as described in the installation notes

A scene stops and doesn't moves on / Strange things happens / Actors are attacking each other
Load the last save outside the cell where the cell where the trouble began (in most cases the last autosave) and try again.

I still can't get it to work / something won't happen / someone won't speak to me / some script won't start
Make sure you use the most current Skyrim Version (>= 1.8).
Remove / disable all not required mods (you can backup your data folder before to easily restore everything back once your are finished). Make sure the /data/scripts folder is empty as scripts from other mods with the same name could break the mod. Then reinstall DI, use a clean save (or create a new character by starting a new game - in no case use a save which you created while DI was already active before) and try again. If that still does not work, feel free to post here in this thread asking for support

Voice Actors
I'm looking for volunteers to make this mod fully voiced. Please check out this post if you want to help.

Graphic Artists
You know your way arround creating or editing items / textures / effects in Skyrim and want to help out? There is always some item or outfit I need for this mod, so if you want to help me out go ahead and PM me. All I can offer is the timeless fame if a place in mod credits however tongue.png

Animation Artists
I have to use existing animations for the sex scenes in the mod. While many of them are very well done, most are not perfect for the actual scenes I have in mind. For example, some are "one-piece" animations which don't allow me to set the proper timing, others don't quite fit the action (like looking to consentual when it is not in the scene) and several do not exist at all (groping, undressing, etc). On the off chance that someone with skill in this area comes along and wants to provide an animation tailored for this story, please contact me.

Update to 0.27

Here we go, Chapter 1 is finally complete. Yay! Not much else to say here, I have described the new content already in the last post and except for some minor changes (Spoiler: There are two bad ends) that's what you'll find in this update.

You do need to install the FNIS Creature Pack and as always you have to run the FNIS User Tool after installing Dark Investigations. On the other hand you no longer need to have the SexIS Datapack. You can use any of your old savegames before deceiding to threaten Shydra to start the new branch.

Have fun

    2. Could u say which is the moment to take the potion? I guess it has a bad end after wait a time, but maybe the moment is important, tried many things and nothing happens.

      Great job btw, best skyrim mod ever xD

      Delete
    3. Nope, the moment is not important, although after two days the effect wears off and nothing will happen then anymore. Its not one single location which triggers it, so its nothing complicated you have to search. But if you do search you might find it (or get found) faster ;)

      Delete
    4. Ok found it, love that scene :P

      Delete
    5. there's the bandit end whats the other one and how do i get it?

      Delete
    6. You don't have to drink it *instead*, and I actually don't recommend doing so because it'll fail the interrogation quest immediately. Instead, just use it on Shydra, and drink it later, after you're done with the interrogation quest. (Don't worry, the potion will stay in your inventory after the interrogation quest is finished.)
      Although the ambush scene just hang up on me when the potion weared off and they were about to get rid of me. But then again, I could've just ran out of memory - the picture my task manager showed was typical for such cases: 93% RAM usage, and CPU load drops to zero. Will try again now.

      Delete
    7. > Don't worry, the potion will stay in your inventory after the interrogation quest is finished

      Well that's actually a bug I guess, it should be removed if given to Shydra of course. Also I guess it doesn't really breaks anything and is even fine story wise to some degree (could have given only half of it). Still getting fixed for the next release :)

      Delete
    8. > Also I guess it doesn't really breaks anything and is even fine story wise to some degree (could have given only half of it).

      Yeah, it's MUCH better that way, if you ask me. And it's a shame you have no reason to return to the prison dungeon after the interrogation is finished. I mean, you could just overhear the two orcs shaming each other for being such pussies and not doing anything when you took their toy (Shydra) away from them, getting mad with themselves for that, and wishing you'd open the door again so they could show you who's the boss (because for me, the scene was simply screaming for that; I mean, it's a fucking orc, not a sheep, and no matter how much dragonborn you are, :p interrupting an orc in the middle of a brutal orgy will most likely cost you, or at the very least they would try to make you pay).
      Or not the orcs, but just a couple random guards whispering to each other oh-what-would-they-do-to-that-sweet-little-ass-of-yours-that-wanders-here-back-and-forth-all-day-long things behind your back as you walk past them on your way home after a long, exhausting, but productive day of interrogation, deeply submerged in your thoughts about your next steps (or depending on how the interrogation went, feeling confused and angry with yourself because you were starting to feel something just when that guard for popped in and interrupted Shydra), and coming to your senses only to realise that you're on your knees in the barrack and their cocks are actually slapping your face and open mouth. I mean, since your mind is not affected, it could just register their words and make orders to your body without interrupting your train of thought.

      Now, if you're still here, I'm not complaining about anything. I think you did an amazing job here, and so did the voice actors, especially Shydra, Tursam, that guy in Bright Path Inn (Wormos or something), and late Anray. Thanks you guys (and girls) for that, and for a perfect birthday present (yep, believe it or not, but 27th was my birthday).

      Delete
    9. > I'm not complaining about anything

      Well, not that I've said it... :) Actually, the only thing I could complain about is the lack of the source code. Because sometimes I can't progress anywhere, sometimes the dialogues seem out of place, and having the sources could shed some light on whether it's my savegame is broken, or a mod conflict (as it was in my case with UFO breaking the prison door guard), or I'm actually supposed to do something in order to progress.

      Delete
    10. > (about after the end content)

      Yes it could be added and would be nice. There are several places where a bonus scene could be inserted too. It's just a question of time/work to do it. Might be added in a later update.

      > About the source

      I think I already mentioned this somehwere else, but the simple reason for not including them is that at this point (while I'm still working on the mod) I don't want someone else to mess with the story.

      Delete
    11. Instead of a bonus scene for chapter one, could Osst and Ackar just get released from prison and show up for chapter 2 or 3? Maybe as new recruits with the Slavers?

      Delete
    12. One potential scene I was hoping for was Shydra forcing the PC to drink the potion, like the player having an option to hesitate, causing her to wake up.

      Delete
    13. ^ I like it. Also wish there was a way to have shydra take over pc but not fail the mission. All good though. Cant Complain.

      And did I catch that Athstai said next update? Whens the release date!?!?!?!?!?!?

  4. Yay, downloading... Day saved ;)

  5. If I uninstall Dark Investigations, make a clean save then reinstall it I get to start the quest from the beginning again yes?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. It depends on the save game. If you use a save game where you already finished the mod, then no otherwise yes (but you don't need a reinstall for that :) ).

      Delete
  6. So I'm encountering a problem, everytime I get to the fighting at the Bright Path inn in Chapter 1, I can't seem to trigger the next part like I seem to "kill" both Shydra and Tursam but nothing happens no matter how many times I do it. I'm just wondering how to fix that.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. As all scripting troubles, its most likely a mod conflict. Disable other mod / use a clean profile if you have a mod manager / make sure there are no scripts in the Script folder from other mods (esp if they befin with TIF).

    1. Not in Valenwood, that's for sure ;) Or you you have to wait for the next (?) Elder Scrolls game. You need to investigate (or read the general comments thread, where this most likely has been explained by someone already)

    2. there in nothing in the comments in English and if it is in English then they need to go back to school an learn to spell so i can read the comments!
      so were am i meant to go? and why are there are no quest markers? and the journal does not update!

    3. After you save the girl in the prologue, search that room for a note on a table. After you report to the housecarl and get Anry, or whatever his name is, head back to the farm and go inside. After the conversation, go to the cabbage patch outside.

    1. You are probably using a custom female skeleton, like xp32 (unp, etc) or anything based on those. They have different propotions than the vanilla skeleton and an animation can only be made for one. There is an compability option in the settings menu (spells->Dark Investigation Settings) which fixes this to some degree by resizing the actors to a different scale - its not perfect looks a bit better. SoS is not supported yet and again might mess with the alignment.

    5. Just play like normal. At one moment (it happened after 3 or 4 hours in game time for me, so, quite fastly), you will see a Bandit leader and his pal to come to you, and talkto you. And then, after that, well....You will see!

    10. Keep in mind that the effect of the potions wears off after some time, so if you have waited long enough (or fast traveled for some days) your heroine has escaped the danger. You can see wether the potion effect is active in your magic effects menu.

      Delete
    11. Its still active(about 1day left) but i never saw the bandit leader could it be becose i have OBIS on ? or do you have place where it has more chance to trigger ? btw loved the others endings ;p

    13. I can't seem to get the bad end to fire the way I'm guessing it was intended. I get ported to what looks like Redoran's Retreat with the 2 bandits.. but when I zone in every other bandit in the place aggros and kills me before I can even react. Anyone else having this issue? For what it's worth I'm using OBIS as well.. though disabling OBIS doesn't seem to have any effect.

      Delete
    14. If this always happens (sometimes such glitches might appear now and then, it's a skyrim bug imho), it's probably a mod conflict. Disable other mods.

    Shame though it only happens once. It'd make more sense if the potion effect was removed afterwards, but it's not, so why can't it happen again?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Actually the effect should be removed and there is code in for that but I didn't test it that much (because its really only cosmetical and will vanish after 2 days anyway) - so it might be a minor bug.

    2. And what has to it happens after to drink a potion?

  24. An option to make the bad player ending (the bandits) a random encounter would be interesting, maybe stop people nagging for an update every day if there's still stuff going on. The bandits could shoot the player with an arrow tipped with the potion, and then "test" out it's effect. Wouldn't require any new dialogue, just the player get's shot and a message comes up saying the feeling is somewhat familiar or something. Could add it to the bug fix update you said you're planning.

      Delete
    4. Given the theme of the game, it'd probably make more sense if after the first encounter they just command you to always follow orders or something like that. Then a few mini encounters could happen repeatedly from then on -- generally random folks taking advantage of the poor dragonborne slut. Like getting pimped by a beggar for some coin, servicing the barracks, and entertaining random patrons when you're in the bar.

  34. A mod that started out great and has gotten better and better. Wonder if for a potential extra bonus scene- SPOILER- If you drink the potion and then speak to Shydra before finding the bandit she could accidently work out what you did and take advantage of it...

  39. I drank the potion on my character, and saved so I could test the things the bandits say. Was dissappointed when all they said was "Look at these strange clothes she is wearing" when my character was nude. I quickly thought of my own dialog that could happen when the player is nude:

    Bandit Leader: "Hey there, it's dangerous to walk around nude in times like these, but luckily for you, we help people like you, for a fee of course"
    Player: *Gives money*
    Bandit Leader: "That's a good girl now, seems you know who's in charge"
    Bandit thug: "Hey boss, don't you wonder where the money came from? I can only think of one place she could hide it..."
    Bandit Leader: "Yes, you're right. better take her back to our base to see what else she's hiding. Come with us"
    Player: *Obeys cause of potion* (Player moved to cave and event continues from there)

    Just my thoughts, ultimately it's up to you, and I don't normally walk around nude anyways, but yeah, otherwise great mod, love it, can't wait for the next chapter!

  45. Hey, Asthai! I love your mod and have been following it for a while. I have a few bug reports. First has already been mentioned by someone, it is when -SPOILER- Shydra has the gag on the player and is going at her with the strap-on, for the first "step" in the animation, there is a huge gap. The second bug is after I use the fertilizer, the magic effect lingers on for forever (as far as I can tell [It would be OK if you can get more mushrooms and make more potions for unlimited fun]). There is another semi/not-really-a-bug but I hope you can do something about it. I use SexLab's nude suit for guys so I don't see any "action" (Didn't have that problem before because I was using a continually nude male model but I realized that it wasn't the best mod to have in a college setting). Oh, and speaking of action, the bandits' and player's moves were all out of synch for me.

    For additional content later, I fully back this person and their idea. "Wonder if for a potential extra bonus scene- SPOILER- If you drink the potion and then speak to Shydra before finding the bandit she could accidently work out what you did and take advantage of it..." and also think we should keep the potion after you use it on Shydra. Also, if after Shydra has her way with your character, you can do a follow up where she does come back and "take care" of you and, through a series of events, your character can either be broken and used by the slavers or eventually break free and take them down.

    I can't wait for future content! Where are the adventures of the Dragonslut going to take her next?!

    I also plan on submitting a voice to you soon so keep your eyes peeled!

    1. yeah i would love if you let her go eitheir you find shydra being turn in to a bitch (only if you let the dog mount her) or if you imprison her in to a whore for the guards (if you let the guard have hes way) or even better if you let her go she decide to get revenge on you depending on what you did to her (she makes you a public use if you use the guard or a breeding pet if you sue the dog) but of course this as are ideas for the very far future and if you like them of course but it would be great if there is something more after the end of chapter 1.

  46. one more thing have you consider a donation system like patreon to help you make the progress for this faster or other donation systems. i think you hve a big fnbase to help you and you still do it for free but you give the option to your fans to help you do this faster. the reason i ask this is because i ahve seen many other projects and yours is the only thats it is interesting and have a good story and sex. i want to see this finished someday thats why i suggest this idea.

    1. While money might make me spend more time working on it, I doubt there are enough users willing to donate. I would probably end up with 5 bucks and in return everyone would think I'm only in for the riches, which isn't quite a good deal :)

    2. well dude you will never know until you try and if you keep it free but give just the option wouldnt hurt. and who knows with this patreon thing you could even make the game bigger by adding extra crap with special tiers. just saying you have the option

    3. I don't think it's unreasonable to offer an option to donate. You could simply leave folks the option to pay if they enjoyed the awesome thing you gave them for free, and make it clear that the compensation may or may not have any effect on future projects. Quid pro quo, Clarisse.

  47. I have a question regarding the problem where shydra and tursam are kill able at the inn. So I know this is a mod conflict and all at how you explained it, but is it possible to bypass this problem without removing mods? Could you simply just put the esp at the bottom of the load order as an alternative? I also read that this could be a scripting problem as you said, but I don't know what exactly to remove from the scripts folder from how you explained it. Nonetheless, your mod is freakin amazing, and I hope you continue working on this mod :D

    1. > but is it possible to bypass this problem without removing mods?

      Short Version: Probably not.

      Long version: There are different kinds of scripting conflicts. One for example is if another mod hooks on the same event DI is waiting for (in this case for example being low on health for the actors) and changes the behaviour so that it doesn't fires up for Dark Investigation.
      Another one is related to the problem that the Creation Kit has (/had) no unique name for script files of different mods, except if you explicit tell it to do so. I didn't know that when I started so some script names are non-unique and if another mod has the same script file names they will overwrite the DI script, which obviously messes several things up. The only way to avoid this is not having script files from other mods in your /script folder (esp those starting with "TIF"). At some point I may fix this in DI by renaming the old scripts but I don't know how much work this is yet.
      In any case: The easiest clean solution is just using a clean /data/ directory, install DI, FNSI and the nude mods of your choice and play it. Once you are done you can put your old data directory back and no mods are lost. I think some mod managers allow you to do just this with much less work.

      Delete
    2. Oh alright I see my problem then. One thing that I would like to report while I was dealing with this problem last night is that it seems to be fixed if you put it at the end of your load order. This part in the quest will otherwise not work if you don't put it at the end of your load order. Anyway, thanks for the help in clearing up the matter! I'm starting a new character tonight, and I'm gonna remove some mods to see if that will fix the problem without moving it to the bottom of my load order.

      As for the next major content update. Who knows. There is A LOT work to do: Figuring out the story, branches and scenes for the next chapter, creating a huge new location, probably working on some new custom animations for its scene and then of course all the other scripting, writing and stuff.

Also taking a small break myself to work on other things at the moment.

  63. Hey :)
    First of, great mod you programmed there, I had a great time :D

    Now after reading some of your posts, I have two questions:
    Firstly, you mentioned in one of your posts that you need Shydras Voice Actor to continue developing Chapter 2, but as far as I know, there is only one Outcome in Chapter 2 that could lead to Shydra reappearing as herself again (the bad negotioating ending where she flees the prison and the quest fails). In every other case she's either dead (killed by Anray) or mentally broken, thus making a cameo quite unlikely... So it does not seem to be a great priority to hire Shydras Voice Actor again because she won't play a major role again.

    Secondly, I read the Mod Description and it described Chapter 1 as a story with 4 branches. So far, I only discovered 3, including:
    1. Tursam: "negotiating"
    2. Shydra: aggressive, with the two Orcs
    3. Shydra: negotating, giving her the potion.

    So the logically fourth branch would be an aggressive Tursam path, especially since it's very frustrating having to fulfill Tursam commands, but I don't now how to "unlock" tis branch because no matter what I say, it always leads to negotiating with him. Can you help me with this? :)

    Thanks for the great mod!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. No, I would like to hear Shydra (so Aryes) in the just completed branch of the first chapter, Shydra will have no role in the second chapter. And as I wrote my last information was that she will do it once she has time for it. Also this isn't stopping me from working on chapter 2 as soon as I feel like starting it, it's just something I'd like to have finished before.

      Tursam's branch splits later, letting you follow his commands yourself or choose someone else to do it. But you always have to negotiate to finish the story with him. Also in case you didn't noticed yet, there are two semi-hidden bonus scenes/locations, one for the Tursam and one for the Shydra branch which are worth checking out.

      Delete
    2. All right, thank you for your reply :)

    2. Oh I cheated and used console commands instead. Finally managed to complete Shydra's branch. It had like 5 endings but the mod itself was buggy as hell. (especially the parts where we can't control the PC) I like Shydra's new voice though. But I don't get it how some of the lines are voiced and some of them aren't. Like you could just send all the lines to actors/actresses and be done with it.

      Delete
    3. Presumably when the voice acting was done some parts weren't written/earlier version and it will depend on when the voice actor is available to do more. The buggy bit I find strange, normally for me if something can go wrong in a mod it does but I have found this very stable barring a very occasional quirk.

      Delete
    4. The bug problem might be on your side. I have like 320 mods with like 240 .esps, a slighty bloated game at 22MB on a toon who played through all the main vanilla questlines, all the DLC, Faalskaar, Wyrmstooth, and Moonpath, and I didn't have any trouble; however, I could've just gotten lucky, I dunno.

  67. SPOILERS It seems a bit weird that a naked lady escapes the dungeon. Wouldn't it make more sense (story wise) that she steals all your gear and pretends to be the dragonborn to escape.

    1. The story is about "rescueing" hostages, although don't expect too much from it - it wasn't nearly as extensive and fleshed out as Dark Investigations.

    5. As Oblivion and Skyrim use different scripting languages, it would be no simple task to put Dark Lessons into Dark Investigations (plus it would make no sense story-wise). I have played Dark Lessons and it was quite entertaining, but not as good as Dark Investigations. When Asthai chooses to work on a mod again it would be a far better use of his time to continue Dark Investigation

    2. If creating a new area is difficult than maybe the slavers base could me moved to solestein(dragonborn dlc). Story wise its pointless but it kind of brings more excitement to the gameplay. I think this mod should go to the next level but no pressure thats just an opinion.
