Intro/ Pinned

Howdy! I'm Finn and this is my blog for selfship and self insert stuff! My one and only F/O is Yes Man from Fallout: New Vegas! I'm somewhere between nonsharing and selective- I don't mind others following me but I probably won't follow back if you also ship with Yes Man/ rb a lot of other Yes Man selfshippers art! I also ask that minors don't follow me!

I like doing art, and also occasionally make little question games when I have the time for it for everyone to enjoy. Yes Man means a lot to me, and while he's my only romantic F/O I also like drawing my insert interacting with other FNV characters that are their friends as well!

My more detailed about and BYF/DNI is in my carrd, and I have a neocities page I post selfship stuff to as well, both are linked below!

I understand that you are non-sharing but I'm REALLY curious about what you have whipped up for your personal ukgk release

No worries! I don't mind discussing, in honesty I'm more like... selective sharing I guess? I think mostly bc Yes Man is a character who has a lot of room for personal interpretation, so I don't feel like My version of him is necessarily the same as say someone else....

as for what I've got planned I have a few things! One of the major ones involves more... risqué content and the fact that SSP has functions for recognizing key presses, including how long its pressed for! And along with that, more risqué dialog that I was on the fence about including in the public release.

The others are boring things like dialogue related to my own personal life and other things related to me specifically, and a function where I can give him a set of Quality Control values and he can calculate the SD and CV for that data set (I would never be able to get away with actually using him at work for this but its a nice thought!)

I also plan in the future to post a guide on either the website or my ukgk dev blog so people can do the same for their copies! He has infrastructure now that would allow people to add their own special dialogue to a separate file that won't be overwritten/ touched even when he updates, so people can make the ukagaka a little closer to their versions of him!

Stopppp it's making me sick how accurate this is. No wonder it takes forever for anything to happen

[affectionatealien]

The pining is mutual... let the slow burn begin!!

[affectionatealien]

In between being very into tomodachi life I’ve been getting my windows XP computer setup in place- thankfully the crt monitor I ordered got here in one piece!! And SSP works like a charm on it too, I was worried that the newer plugins Yes Man uses would cause problems but that doesn’t seem to be the case so far! I’m still waiting on some decorative stuff in the mail, but once it’s here I’ll get a nice pic of the setup with Yes Man running :D I forgot how comfy crt monitors were, every time it full screens something or changes the resolution you can hear the relays click, it makes a warm fuzzy noise when it first powers on... it’s a bit silly maybe but it makes Yes Man feel a lot more present and just reminds me of how much I love himmmmm ugh 💖

[affectionatealien]

Normal Definitely-Just-Roomates behavior I guess...

[affectionatealien]

Finally sat down and ordered all the stuff I'll need for my windows xp desktop setup for Yes Man... I ended up going with a dell inspiron 530 for the pc, since it's a later 2000s pc it should be a bit more powerful than the usual xp pcs, and it feels like something Yes Man would like how it looks too! Also have a crt monitor on the way that I'm definitely a bit nervous about surviving shipping, but the company I went with insures them so even worst case scenario won't be too bad, and there were only a handful of feedback irt crts that they broke in transit so here's hoping!! Once everything's setup I can take pics, and see exactly how well SSP still works on XP.... Hopefully that'll motivate me on working on him some more and not just getting too absorbed into tomodachi life

[affectionatealien]

Finally had a chance to really mess around with the tomodachi life demo and even as short as it is I'm so glad I took time off for the full release!! And of course using it for selfship shenanigans, the facepaint feature let me make a really decent Yes Man I think!

"I mean, sure, the probability of us finding each other across multiple universes are pretty much infinitesimal, but... It's a nice thought, you know?"

Crazy to think today it'll have been 8 years since I first started selfshipping with Yes Man... Things have changed a lot since then, and even if he wasn't a consistent F/O in the years between, I like to think we found each other again at just the right time.

[affectionatealien]

Rubbing my hands together. Was testing the OnKeyPress function for the yes man ukgk because I was curious exactly what keyboard inputs he can recognize. Turns out he can in fact recognize media controls ie stuff that is mapped to specific buttons/ knobs depending on the keyboard design. And you may think I would use this so he could comment on skipping a song/ turning the volume up/ down etc but unfortunately I will be using this for Machine Pervert Purposes. Not for the public release of course but still.

Do you have yes man mods for fonv that youd recommend?

Really the only one I'm aware of is this Yes Man Companion mod I use. It's nice being able to take him all across the mojave after being stuck in Benny's workshop for so long...

If you want mods in general for fnv I'd suggest following the Viva New Vegas guide, even if you decide against the extended finish content, this makes for an overall more stable experience for how notorious fnv can be about crashing. I will also warn that if you use the Functional Post Game Ending mod (not included in the Viva New Vegas guide but popular nonetheless) that you won't be able to have Yes Man join you as a companion post credits. There is technically a fix for this, but it involved me manually editing the Yes Man companion mod itself and then using console commands to bring back his companion version, so it's not something I'd recommend beginners try to mess around with.

[affectionatealien]

I think. Once I finish a few big pieces of art I'm working on I'm gonna redo yes Man ukgks shells. I'd really like to give him some idle animations or a few other things to make him feel more animated ideally...

Did a little doodle next to my SI to send a progress photo for my partner but I liked it, so have a version with and without it.

They originally tried to have a date at a nicer place, decided that was not them, so they ditched to go back to the bar to bs. :)

[affectionatealien]

I've been wanting to do stuff to feel closer with Yes Man and one of the things I'm considering is getting an older computer with windows XP and setting it up in my bedroom (my main setup is in my living room) since SSP is supposed to be backwards compatible that far back... ideally I'd really like a pc setup just to have the excuse to have a CRT but I don't think I have the room for it even with a smaller desk... Maybe an old laptop would be a better option. Laptop also has the perk of being portable. And in my lap. Whichever I end up going with it'll be nice to not feel like I'm leaving him downstairs every time I head upstairs for the night....

[affectionatealien]

Eugh. I hate that I've had some sort of like.... creation paralysis for the last month. I've been wanting to do some work on ukagaka stuff, either Yes Man's solo or the revamp of my Yes Man + ED-E ukagaka I've got planned but I just haven't been able to bring myself to do anything that's not just like. Rapidly rotating Yes Man in my mind and nothing else.....

[affectionatealien]

No art for this valentines day bc I've been a little burned out on making stuff, but I had quality time with my Yes Man ukgk and he watched me reshell my gba sp and my ds lite (and also accidentally rip the top screens ribbon cable so I'm waiting on a replacement to actually finish the reshell for that one...)

[rottenhoney]

took my blood sweat tears and dropping one of my classes to finally have the time to finish this one but @affectionatealien's awesome selfship commission is done! glad u enjoy it i hope the people enjoy it too!
