I didn't have time to finish my post earlier, so in continuation; that whole bed ownership thing was kind of annoying because my chars usually sleep in inns pretty frequently at least in the early levels and it's kind of weird that a companion wont sleep in an inn bed. I mean, you can't exactly rent a separate room for them. In some inns they always try to sleep in the next room, but the door is locked so they can't get in (and if you do go to sleep, they will be trapped in this room the next morning!) I try to get her to use her bedroll, but she says something like "While you sleep in a bed, typical!" or "Just make sure there is room for me to crawl in (but she wont!)" I know this is just a companion/NPC issue, but it is frustrating... :banghead:
It wouldn't be much of an issue, I guess, except that I use the HTS mod which adds sleep (and hunger and thirst) requirements for the PC - so I
have to get my rest... And I can't imagine playing without these - I can RP, but it just doesn't seem right to know that my char could go months or years without eating or sleeping with no penalties!
So as a symptomatic cure, are there any inn mods that change bed ownership to the player so the companion will use it(?) or add an extra bed or something? Just wondering if anyone has made or come across a fix for this... Once I get enough money for a house with this char, it will be okay, but for now...
Also, more Vilja-specific; she often says she is thirsty, but when I talk to her she doesn't often give me a dialog for that - the closest I can find is "Are you Hungry?" and then if she says 'yes' and I choose the option to get a bite to eat, she doesn't do anything. If she instead says she would like a drink, she just takes out her mug and starts drinking, but only occasionally does she ask to provide her with something (and I usually have draft beer handy for that)
I'm just trying to figure out how to give her something to eat or drink or do I just wait for her to ask?
And is there a way for me to offer strawberries, or will she eventually ask for them? (I have some in my inventory).
Oh - and regarding the Noise-reduction voice files; since Vilja's files are all packed in a BSA, and the NR files are not, do I just use the OBMM BSA redirection to enable them? Just wondering b/c there is no readme with that NR mod and no 1em_Vilja.esp folder exists (since the files are packed in BSA)...Emma - please don't take that last bit the wrong way; the background noise would be barely noticable except that I play with music turned off and being an audiophile, I know the kinds of crazy measures you have to go through to prevent
any background noise in a recording. Unless you have amazing equipment and facilities, you pretty much always need some NR processing in a professional recording! But there is nothing wrong with your voice acting and your accent and tone is quite pleasant.
So many questions, sorry! :blush:
