Hey everyone, thank you so much for downloading and playing "The Machine, And Her"!
I recently did an interview with Bethesda about the project, which can be found here: https://bethesda.net/en/article/32AWU6xmyjmhTXrpBjmRbR/monthly-modder-nikanine _____________________________________________
Update July 2021: I now work in the industry as a Quest Designer and writer so I’m no longer able to provide assistance or updates for this project. Thank you to everyone for the incredible support over the years; it means more than I can possibly say!
For anyone wanting to ask if Kit is romanceable, she's a teenager and unless you use an alternate start mod your character is around 240 and biologically in their 30s. If you still need to ask after those numbers...
i actually was going to post a joke like this. the mod kind of confused me when A.G.N.I.S said she was just a kid but everyone spoke to/about her like she was an adult. not sure why anyone would think of even trying to romance Kit. she is somewhat childlike in appearence (shes like 3/4 the female pc height). although for some reason shes affected by modded armor that permanently locks her as either tiny or the size of a building (like any armor i think its due to her og outfit not being in base game).
There's a weird glitch after getting the Vacuum tube. A man appears and then... nothing at all. for some reason, it stops there and nothing happens.. I think there was supposed to be a dialogue prompt there, but it's not showing up...
several things could be the cause. followers interfere with the mod as well as mods that alter npc followers like amazingfollowertweaks or stand alone follower mods. i had the same issue and just finished this quest (it was awesome btw) and i had to disable amazingfollowertweaks & a mod that made curie look different(i went thru about 50 mods flipping switches like power breakers to find out which ones were causing it. hope this helps dude🤙
Saw another comment that said that the game assumes you're in power armor, this breaks the scene. The fix was to enter and leave a power armor before the scene. That fixed it for me as well
it stoped working for me keep geting a dialogue box with 1 option "dialogueentry" and it dosnt do anything tryed reinsatling didnt fix it i took a screeshot not sure if i can post it here or not
My dude, this mod has affected me so bad that every time I play the game now, after finishing it, I can't play the game without getting PSD of the ending and the revelations it brought i don't know how, but it really got to me this bad! 8/10 mode, with the only thing holding it back is some visual glitches, with one time at the end, part of the ceiling was missing, where I could see into the void, and sometimes I had to end and restart the dialogue for it to continue other than that its a great mode and F-ing great story.
Jusy finished this little gem. One of the best quest / companion mods I have seen in both Skyrim / FO4. Great story, nice progress and satisfying end.
Spoiler:

Regarding bugs, I only faced one that almost made me give up the mod alltogether. Upon returning to Agnes with the parts, I could not figure out what to do in order to proceed. Kit was running to the closed gate, never to return. The actual problem in my case lies with Extended dialogue Interface. I had to look straight at Agners in order to initiate the dialogue that allows Kit to return... Other the that, the story rolled out almost fluently.
I can't understand what happened but my HUD is completely gone... I had the mod installed since the beginning of this save, 6 days, but in the moment i spoke for the first time with Kat after interacting with her terminal in Symphony Station my HUD never came back, i've tried everything to get it back but i was unable. I think i'm stuck in a Cutscene Loop cause she never moved after she told me to do a Tour of the station starting with the bathroom. Even uninstalling the mod and starting a new save the HUD is still missing, what the hell happened??? Edit: I'm an idiot, it wasn't the mod, it's still full of bugs, but nothing game breaking for me.
For those who get soft-locked out of the game when picking up the valve at WWOZ Radio Station: Let the librarian sit down and sleep before opening the locker. A cut-scene kicks in directly after that point, and for some reason the UI locked up for me until I let the NPC's animation do its thing.
I've just finished the Mod. It is good, thankfully the only problem for me was the brown face bug. I was pressing F5 all the time to avoid any other kind of problems. Yes, it was good, but far behind Ivy. Now it is time for Heather.
Is @Nikacola still alive? Twitter accound deleted. He said something about a new project. Any news?

>Playing the vanilla start
I get your point though.
I am using XDI and the XDI patch.... Any suggestions?
