Today's going to be different

I had a shitty time sleeping last night, so I'm exhausted, I have a headache, and I'm exhausted.

So rather than actually work on something, I think I'm going to try to learn something. And that something is the Unreal Development Kit. Because more games are in everyone's best interests.

I may stream parts of the learning process, but I'll be honest, I'm not sure if my attention span is where it should be right now. Considering I've spent the last ten minutes just kind of staring at my computer, well...anyway, yeah. If I do start streaming I'll update the tag on the right.

And yes, still on track for the next update day.


In the meantime, have a picture! It's Asian Goth Girl Lydia! (Art by the awesome Luckster)

  1. If you are so tired, that you just stared at the monitor, there is highly unlikely that you will understand the kit... any kit. In such cases my perfect method is sleeping a few hours...


    I saw the update on the update goals, and I'm glad to see something interesting:

    "New Adjustment: Werewolf + High Arousal = ???"

    An idea: You could insert something into this context with the Furry Fetish (watching some Werewolf porn to get the fetish is so creates the perfect preamble to a litter/puppy with an actual were...)


    By the way, the french maid outfit can be worn with other clothes (pl flirty clothes)

    1. I wore the Japanese outfit at the same time as the nun outfit. :/

    2. Have not yet found the specialty maid outfits. :(

  2. not sure if it was intended or not, but you can't wear any outfit you get from the strip club, also, i got the waitress, and as soon as i promoted, i lost it.

    the schoolgirl and cheerleader outfits got stuck in my inventory after i went back to work, and i never did get the white gown, even though i passed on the hooker promotion like seven times.

    1. If clothes get stuck in your inventory, you can try setting them to be your work or casual outfit and then using "wear clothes" to put them back on. Once you are wearing them, you can take them off and put them in your closet

      Delete
    2. Of course... you have to assign them to an outfit before they get stuck... :/

      (Except for exercise clothes)

    3. could only examine them, as said above, can't wear them... so it's a moot point

  3. I'm experiencing a bug where, in the process of dating Genevieve, trying to call her just results in a blank action and the relationship can't progress. I think it might be at the point where you become able to do a bit more (i.e. hold her hand while walking in the park). It may be possible that pregnancy is causing it, but I can't say for sure. Encountered this while on one playthrough, then started a new game and eventually wound up with the same glitch. (The second time it happened immediately after walking in the park and getting a successful hand holding for the first time, which is why I think that might be where the glitch is.)

    1. I described this in the previous thread just a minute ago, so it's not an isolated incident. With me, it's not at an obvious turning point in the relationship (unless I'm about to get to the "okay, we can screw in the underwear changing room" level). Had a series of successful dates with Gen, have gotten past the hand-holding stage a few dates ago, and then suddenly after another successful lunch at the Bistro (I picked up the tab, we kissed as we left each other), I get the "telephone - Call someone / Genevieve" script. No voicemail, no wondering if she's avoiding me, nothing. Just a blank action, like you say.

    2. me too....i think we reach the end of the relationship..because dating genevieve is still not finish yet it's in progress...

      Delete
    3. It's definitely not the end of the relationship -- in the 4-26 build, you're able to get to a point where your dates with Genevieve get more sexual. She plays footsie with you under the table at the Bistro, she comes in the dressing room when shopping for underwear and has sex with you, etc. And I was playing for *months* into that game build (I think it was displaying a date of well into February 2013 when I decided to try this latest build out). However, the old build just doesn't progress from that stage (at least as far as I know -- I don't think she'll ever come over to your apartment if she's invited, but will still continue to initiate sex with you in the Mall). This latest build seems to just get hung up at a particular point much earlier in the relationship.

  4. My save files doesn't get properly updated . . halp ~

    I'm tired of always making a new character every week Q_Q

  5. Hey! Great, awesome game. I just had question about the guilt system vs suspicion system. Is that something that you wish to implement as part of a new plot development or is that going to happen whenever you get around to adding it?

  6. I´ve got another bug. I am able to wear the form-fitting-clothes at the same time with the sports bra and the normal sweatsuit. I did the following:
    - set the sweatsuit and the sports bra as exercise outfit
    - dress the form-fitting clothes
    - choose the option get dressed "exercise"
    And there is the bug.

    ReplyDelete

    1. Different person from OP, similar bug.
      Wearing form-fitting clothes, can wear other clothes on top (whether set from the outfits or manually put on). However, cannot manually remove either, as it will flag "You cannot remove the X. You need to remove a form-fitting clothes first." OR "You cannot remove a form-fitting clothes. You need to remove the X first."
      Furthermore, the strip command will not remove the form-fitting clothes (though in the previous, double clothing case, it will remove the article that is not the form-fitting clothes).

      Delete
    2. More on the form-fitting clothes.
      In addition to not being strip-able, they don't seem to map to the outfits outside of the hardcoded selection in the exercise outfit option.
      E.G. If I wear the form-fitting clothes, set it as my Casual outfit, take off the form-fitting clothes, and then dress up in the Casual outfit, it doesn't put any clothes on.

  7. The wiki on save games needs to be updated by someone knowledgeable. RAGS still doesn't support old saves.

  8. A small inconsistency: On a Private Dancer special events, in the bachelor party a guy wanted to have sex, said yes. Here is the bug, the text shows

    "He takes the lead before you can even start to think about what comes next. It seems, fortunately, that he brought his own condom, which he quickly puts on..."

    So far it would be perfect, except in the pop-up window there is a question whether make him wear a condom or not. So, one of them is false...

  9. Is it intentional, that I can run on the treadmill just in the form-fitting clothes without underwear, but I can't go jogging just in the form-fitting clothes without sport bra?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I think that that must be intentional.

      You can go jogging in the sweats without a sport bra. You can go jogging in the form fitting clothes without a sport bra if you have the exhibitionist trait. You can also use the treadmill nude if you have the exhibitionist trait (but you cannot go jogging nude even if you have the nudist trait -- nudists still care about other people's opinions).

      Delete
    2. But I can't use the treadmill just in sweatsuit, it gives the same result as if I go jogging in it. Both times I'm forced to walk. But, I can use the treadmill just in the form-fitting clothes, but still can't go jogging, because of the breasts are "bouncing". How is it, that it is manageable on the threadmill, but not during normal jogging (since bozh of them is essentially jogging)?

      Delete
    3. breasts are too big, you can get rid of that, if your size is under a "c" cup, then it doesn't matter how you dress, as you will not get that message.

  10. Will I have to make a new character when the new patch comes?

    1. Not necessarily, but one thing is sure: All of your shoes will be lost, and you won't be able to buy them in the store either...

    2. But I love my shoes :((

      Thanks for the headsup though

  11. I think I finally cracked the "slutty schoolgirl clothes" issue.
    1.) You get the waitress uniform all right after the third decline, you take it home, and it get placed in the closet (home), strictly as "examine"
    2.) Going to waitressing will get you into said clothes, but this time you are stuck with it, after your day as waitress it doesn't come off (and it is strictly "examine")
    3.) Somehow you get promoted into a novice stripper. This will immediately take the waitress uniform away, and it never again shows up, not even in your closet (home).
    4.) The first day as a novice stripper you immediately got the slutty schoolgirl outfit, ant is also stick with you.

    Also, where is the cheerleader uniform? Because it is gone from the closet (I mean, the closet in the club), and it is not even in the locker...

    ReplyDelete
  12. Put on Jewelry doesn't seem to work in general, and the Caddaigh ring has an order of wear/examine which is kind of annoying.

  13. make more options for test item, and fix the error when tailoring cloths and exming some tems

  14. I am wondering if maybe wearing painful shoes should be masochistic and not submissive. I feel like submissiveness should involve another person. I also think this would also fix the "submissive trait is too easy to acquire" issue -- and I am not sure if the masochist trait would be a problem if "easy to acquire"...

    (But, also: exhibistionist, nudist, and reformed feet are already all easier to acquire than submissive, and prude is about the same difficulty as submissive, in the current game where you get it from wearing painful shoes).

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I agree with this. Wearing ballet heels is more fetishist than a mark of a submissive. And it would be awesome if there are more submissive action options in the game.

      I also think that the masochist trait should unlinked from the slave trait. That is like saying all slaves are also painsluts, which is absolutely false. Unless you have a painslut trait as an upgrade from masochist. In which case I'll need to be careful as I don't want to be a painslut.

      And I also think that it would be better if the slave trait is unlocked once your submissiveness is higher (like the nymphomaniac trait) and after you sexually submit during a master/slave sex act. That would make getting the trait to be a lot more pleasing than how it is acquired automatically now.

      By the way, I do hope you'll fix the item descriptions for the french maid and others. Because I am now getting "Rags can not process the command correctly. If you are the game author, please correct the error in this command: CT_DISPLAYITEMDESC", even for old items like the "secretary outfit".

      I also hope that you would sex up even basic maid activities if the naughty maid outfits are scandalously sexy. If public indecency is a concern, we could always wear coats.

      And yet another suggestion, when during your morning ablutions, where you automatically shower and take your pills, could you also explicitly mention about our taking birth control pills? That would be helpful and consistent.

      Sorry for keep on coming up with ideas. Thank you very much. I love what you have done with the game.

  15. Hey... I have a suggestion, since the importing function seems a bit spotty and it can be tricky to get old saves to work with the latest version of the game, would it be possible to have individual perks, sexual or otherwise be able to be added and maybe even removed using the testing item?

    Not only would this be incredibly usefull to the testing process as it'd circumvent actually doing the action(s) needed to get the perk over and over, it'd help make the process of starting a new game to ensure compatability with the latest version a little more painless, once we've proven we know how to get the perk, it's a little silly to force us all to get them the hard way when starting over is sometimes the only viable option to access the new content without glitches created by incompatability with old saves.

    Please? Perks can be some of the most tedious things to accquire in the game, partly because you're for the most part relying on certain random events happening when at various workplaces or at the bar, so the save-reload dance, complete with the unfortunate slowdown suffered when loading or saving becomes a necessity.

    Heck, if not that then at least provide other more reliable means of getting certain fetishes, like blowjob/boobjob/bondage pornos on the HDTV.

    1. Unless I'm mistaken, the whole save-game issue will never - EVER, EVER - be resolved, unless the RAGS developers themselves fix it.

      Other then that, you have good suggestions that would help us testers to find bugs easier.

    2. Thanks, is anonymousman likely to see my suggestion?

    3. to my experience, he does try to read all comments, but you may have to suggest the next time he posts an updated status, it seems that if you post within a couple hours, you get an almost immediate reply, but i would guess after that, that he has a life, and can't sit and watch for comments, so it takes longer to get back to them.

  16. Hi,
    I suggested to add Traits & Sex. Traits and missing skill(s) to Export State/Import State/Set Up functions of testing item, so we could continue with our characters in new builds (like New game -> Import State -> Set Up (stat(s)) if these stats weren't included in Export State in previous build -> continue).


    It would be also great to add function like 'View Trait Progress' to list your locked/unlocked traits, their progress and point when you unlock the trait - if you have at least 1 point in trait - eg. Dominant: 2/30 ... so you can check your progress and adjust your behaviour.

  17. high arousal+werewolf= transform, run out and mate with a different werewolf, werewolf puppies ensue, or transform, run out screw random john, infect them create story arc possibilities.

  18. Found a bug. Got the second encounter with the other girl in the water (Mermaid?). Her face was red and she was panting. I hit the "Race her" option and the game did not give any sort of reply. It didn't freeze, but there was no scene.

  19. (Same guy as above)

    Second time this has happened to me (on different versions of the game). Again, as soon as Maria comes to me and proposes that I steal the trinket I lose directional controls. I can't go anywhere, but everything else works.

  21. I was wondering if rill ever get the possibility of adding balls to our futas?

  22. Hey,Anon add a bit more 2 the test item since at t current stage its more of a cheat console than a test item dd ability to add perks,intiate endings start relations intiate things like pregnacy your period etc. Also fix the examine bug with the Error,also i'd suggest you create a way for the character to meet your old friends goto your old job,and such,also include more variation to some endings such s for the Doll ending include someone finding you and screwing you senseless with a random date for the rest of the game, or include a hardcore vers were bad things are higher probabiity, things are togher, etc
