Baked Beans of Skyrim (with accompanying Gas Simulation System)

Updates

Fixed a bug that caused the "Jumping relieves pressure" checkbox to not work properly. Thanks to maskedmadnessq for reporting this one.

Added Bean Chili, a fearsome combination of Baked Beans, Beef, Mammoth Cheese and Cabbage. Eating it will instantly max out your gas level, as well as granting access to...

A new gas-powered Power. What the Greybeards never told you (but they almost certainly know!) is that the power of the Thu'um can be used to force your will into not only your breath, but any wind that leaves your body. Abusing this ancient power in such a fashion, though, will probably bring harm to any and all involved. You have been warned. For more info on the Chili and the new Power, see "The Wind of the Dragonborn's Passage" farther down.

A few additional NPC comments have been added, along with some extras for the new Power.

Gas now prompts various player expressions.

New options for tolerance of raw food and intolerance of dairy products.

New options for what happens when you run or walk with a belly full of bloat.

Gas tracking is now done with an alias instead of an Ability, which is proving to be much more reliable overall.

Gas timing configuration and disabling gas now actually works.

Minor bugfixes

RND patch updated as well, be sure to grab it if you want Bean Chili to count as food for RND!

Wait, beans?

Oooookay... so where do I-

So, that's it? Just beans?

Features

New food item: Bowl of Baked Beans

New misc item: Jar of beans

New custom meshes (for the beans)

Brand new textures (for the beans)

Wide range of quality sound effects

A brand new power with spectacular special effects!

But why would a simple food mod need compatibility?

Compatible with what, exactly?

Realistic Needs and Diseases (Medium meal, small drink. Spoils like soup. Requires patch, available on the files page)

iNeed (no patch required, medium meal)

ZF Primary Needs (no patch required, but does not spoil currently. Patch is coming.)

Eat and Sleep (no patch required, medium meal, spoils in 3 days)

So there shouldn't be any requirements...

Do the beans actually do anything?

Why should I eat 'em, then?

You mentioned something about new behaviors in dungeons...

And that's it?

So you really wrote a mod that does nothing but add beans to Skyrim.

Speaking of size, why is a simple single food mod so big? What else is in here? Wait.. what sound effects?

Okay, seriously now.

So it does make you fart!

So what's next?

But why, Vert? Why?

RND patch updated as well, be sure to grab it if you want Bean Chili to count as food for RND!

Fixed several bugs that could cause the tracking script to stop tracking gas buildup.

Added MCM panel to control gas duration, intensity, digestion speed, along with several presets: Arngeir, Lydia, Alduin, and Mick the Master. Also localization support, because while gas may be a universal language, English is not.

Nearby NPCs will now make comments about (or laugh at) your newfound musical abilities.

Sleeping now resets your gas status.

Fixed a bug that was preventing "aftershocks" from occurring and delaying the next "attack".

Added support and gas-tracking info for nearly 400 new foods from 10 other mods and all official DLC.

Compatibility patch now available for Realistic Needs and Diseases. In addition, Baked Beans are now counted as food by iNeed, ZF Primary Needs, and kuertee's Eat and Sleep, no patch required.

Jar of beans now makes two bowls of beans.

Fixed ugly hack for populating LeveledItems, replaced with a different ugly hack that at least has the virtue of being sort of standard for this sort of thing.

Innkeepers are now much more likely to have freshly baked beans in stock, and slightly less likely to have jars.

There is now a slight chance to find jars of beans in barrels, sacks, etc, wherever raw food can be found.

Bandits and Forsworn now have a low chance to drop beans.

Portable and filling, baked beans offer a warm supper on those nights when cooking complex meals just isn't an option. Adventurers young and old can appreciate the wholesomeness of baked beans.

They stay fresher longer than unpackaged vegetables, roots, leaves, or fruit. All you need is a campfire or cook pot and *BAM* you've got some beans goin'!"A bugfix!""Not the features you need, but the features you deserve."I consider version 1.08 feature-complete. Any future updates will be bugfixes only and no additional features are likely to be added. I think I've spent plenty of time on what is, after all, a fart mod, and I think it's the best fart mod around. If you can find a better fart mod anywhere... use it ;)Yes, beans! Delicious baked beans! Good for the heart, good for the soul. Keep yourself warm on those cold Skyrim nights!I'm so glad you asked!

Now eat your beans, they're good for you!Well, okay. April Fools' day is over so I may as well spill the... I might as well just tell you."Farting" hardly does it justice! Baked Beans of Skyrim is a sophisticated digestion-tracking system. It notes the gas content of the various foods you consume, tracks them as they go through your innards, monitors the resulting internal pressures, and finally makes sure that the resulting miasma escapes in a fairly realistic fashion.The practical upshot of all this is that you will fart vigorously after consuming foods that are, on Earth as on Nirn, renowned for their musical properties. Not merely the eponymous beans, mind you, but a whole variety of starchy, high-fiber or high-fat foods. This is why I had to write in support for other food mods: if you devoured a fried egg from Osare Food, a fruit pie from Babette's Feast, and a cheese-stuffed gourd from Cooking Expanded and then didn't shatter some windows afterward, I could hardly call it immersive, could I?The more gas-laden foods you eat, the more powerful the resulting effluvium. A couple of leeks will do you no lasting harm (a few one-cheek squeaks, perhaps, that could be blamed on the dog). If, however, you pause in the middle of a fight to eat 6 bowls of beans, 4 baked potatoes, a slab of horsemeat and 26 cheese wheels, then you (and everyone around you) can expect to be paying the consequences of your capricious gluttony for hours to come.Nor is this a mere sound effect, oh no. That would be too easy. You may find your ill-tempered zephyrs giving away your position to bandits, draugr, dragons, and indeed anything with sharper ears than a deaf mudcrab. Even your friends and followers will gaze upon you in disgust, make insightful and/or cruel comments, or simply chuckle and wander away.You will, at least, have plenty of warning. When your gut is heavy with your greed-fueled bonanza, you'll hear various grumblings and rumblings, as if you swallowed a camel that itself swallowed an oil refinery. Shortly thereafter, the symphony will begin with a few staccato blats and toots, letting you know the tubas and sousaphones are only moments away from really cutting loose.The only cure, at least for now, is time: Skyrim is a simple land, having only recently discovered geared watermills, covered wagons, and organized crime, and as such probably won't address its severe lack of antacids anytime soon. Running may cause you to blow off the pressure a bit faster, as will jumping in place. But digestion takes time, and you're unlikely to be able to get rid of all of it all at once.By popular demand (Divines alone know why), I have added a special, gas-powered Power (I can't really call it a Shout, though it is rather Shout-like). To activate it you must create and eat at least one bowl of Bean Chili. After that, whenever you are at your absolute gassiest, you will automatically receive and equip "Wind of your Passage", a very powerful and dangerous skill. It will completely blow away anyone unfortunate enough to be standing behind you, poison any nearby attackers, and knock down anyone within melee range. It will also cause nearby NPCs to shout and yell in panic as their entire world apparently blows up in front of them in some sort of hellish apocalypse of pure stench. You monster.It's very easy to hit friendly NPCs with this Power, too, so either be very careful of where you aim, or don't use it near settlements at all unless you want to really people to be furious at you. Well, after they regain consciousness, anyway...It also completely eliminates all your gas at once, so don't think you're going to be spamming this skill. You can consume bowls of Bean Chili after activating the Power to immediately recharge it, if you must.Oh, and you might want to turn your speakers down a bit if you're sharing an apartment, house, or indeed building with anyone who doesn't wish to be woken out of sound sleep.So you want to eat Bean Chili, eh? Well, it's easy enough to make. It takes two bowls of baked beans, mammoth cheese, cabbage, raw beef and cook pot. It will count as a large/heavy meal for the various supported needs mods, and as a warm meal for Frostfall. It confers no other benefit. After eating the first one, though (which unlocks the new Power), eating additional bowls of Chili will instantly and completely fill your guts with terrible gas. This will allow you to use the Power, then eat a bowl of Chili and use it again immediately. Or you can just fill up on Chili to listen to the sweet music. I am not proud. I do not judge.The verisimilitude of Baked Beans of Skyrim's digestion tracking has been improved even more! Now, you can use the MCM panel to decide how sensitive your character's stomach is to dairy products and raw meat! These are fairly self-explanatory and are intended for improved customization and immersion. If you think your Orc or Argonian or Khajiit can eat raw meat off the bone without ill effects, make it so! If your opposition to milk-drinking is more than a matter of pride, then by all means, punish yourself by making your character lactose intolerant. The power is IN YOUR HANDS!If you want to make your new food mod compatible with Baked Beans of Skyrim (i.e. make the player fart after eating your food), add your foods to my formlists during your mod's upkeep script. The formlists are vBBS_GassyFood [020022F1] (mildly gassy), vBBS_STUPIDGassyFood [020022F3] (extremely gassy), vBBS_DairyFood [0200694F] (for lactose intolerance) and vBBS_RawMeatFood [02006950] (for raw foods that can cause indigestion). Each food you want to cause gas should be added to only one list, unless it's your intent to make it ridiculously gassy. These lists are reverted when the player loads a game, so be sure to check for and re-add your foods in your own OnPlayerLoadGame event or shortly afterward. The mods listed as compatible above do not need to do this, as your foods are already added to my formlists by my upkeep script.Nothing! No, seriously, I'm done. If someone finds a serious bug, I'll fix it, but this has all the features I originally planned or even thought about, plus a couple of user requests. Now I fully intend to release it into the forest to run free and wild (as Talos intended!) so I can get back to some more serious projects I'd like to finish sometime this century!What can I say? Farts are funny. Would you believe it was my wife's idea? No, seriously.Whatever else it may be, Baked Beans of Skyrim is probably the most advanced fart system in gaming today. I hope you laugh as hard playing with it as I did making it!"Not the features you need, but the features you deserve."Internal testing builds"What happened to 1.04?"
