Mod features
Unlocks the skinny dipping scene if Dark Justiciar Shadowheart makes a certain decision at the conclusion of her personal quest.
How to unlock this scene (contains Act 3 spoilers):
-
[]DJ Shadowheart must turn away from Shar in Act 3 by saving her parents
[
]You must be partnered with Shadowheart (agreed to stay together in Act 2)[]40+ approval with Shadowheart
[]You do not need to know that she can't swim
This scene can happen in any Act 3 camp: Elfsong, City ("Slums"), or Rivington. The long rest scene in front of the statue is higher priority, so it will happen first.
Note: Screenshots in my previews are from the non-explicit version of the scene. The version you get will depend on your game settings.Why does this scene not trigger in the vanilla game?
A key requirement for this scene in vanilla is for Shadowheart to marked an Enemy of Shar. This only happens in Act 2 during the Nightsong confrontation. If Shart spears The Nightsong, she gets the Shar Path tag instead. These tags persist until the end of the game and are not affected by events in Act 3. Because ex-DJ Shadowheart never gets the Enemy of Shar tag, she misses out on the swimming scene.
Is this a bug or intentional?
Not sure, tbh! The scene cinematics account for both versions of her hair color, but the dark-haired version could just be cut content. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Other notes
⚠️ This mod currently does not address the vanilla game bug that occasionally locks players out of this scene. When this bug happens, Shadowheart talks about finding sand in her hair even though you two never went swimming. If this bug happens to you, you will need to reload your game.🌙🌙🌙
Installation & compatibility
Install with mod manager. This mod is compatible with IGMM and is safe to install mid-playthrough, even if you've already completed Shadowheart's personal quest. The scene will only play if you meet all the requirements, so keep that in mind for mid-playthrough installs!
⚠️ This mod can be uninstalled mid-playthrough, but uninstalling the mod will not revert
