Have I mentioned that I hate bug fixes?

Sorry about being incommunicado for the last few days, but I'm back for more bug fixing. Particularly of shoes, because what the fuck is up with those? And, of course, the other stuff (cigarettes, don't make me recompile you with a bat!).

The following bugs have been fixed:
- Shoes can now be worn again.
- Komodo cigarettes will no longer turn into regular cigarettes.

Also made the following changes:
- A lot of things have been made more obvious, like the note that must be read for the second mission.
- The closet now has a command (after reading the note after choosing a job) that explains the clothing system. It will disappear after using it once, but it should be pretty helpful for explaining the clothing system, in particular the exercise clothing mechanic.
- The toolkit got some more descriptions.
- Changed the second mission so that Maria will now give you the Brittany mission whether you seduced her or not.
- A few other minor tweaks here and there.

Update 9/11 is here.

  1. Ah, but you see, we love bug fixes!
    Apart from having to start over that is.

    1. Every... single... time... SIGH !

    2. export state / import state makes up for some of that, minus having to re-level computer, cleaning, and dexterity, every time.

    3. You can also use the testing device to set your skills (to the nearest factor-of-ten)

  2. Is there a way to add a relationship increase with Genevieve to the cheat tool? Grinding that relationship every update is getting quite tiring.

    1. I keep getting buggy phone calls when I try to go out on a date with Genevieve -- the conversation just...(stops)

      is there a secret for dealing with her?

  3. The last few versions I can't play with the stripper job since my character can't put on the waitress outfit due to "less prodigious buxom" and the stripper shoes don't even have the Wear option when I right click them.
    Is that because I use the Skip Intro cheat option?

    1. Ok it can't be that, I just started normally without cheats and still the same problem. Somebody help, I'm tired of playing as a secretary :P

    2. Don't try to wear the outfit and shoes. Right click on the locker with the stripper outfits in it, there should be an option to start working. It automatically puts the waitress outfit on and brings up a shoe menu for you.

  4. Are the descriptions for the stripper and maid outfits in the Appearance menu in yet?

    1. Maid outfits have a blank description :(

      Also, they seem buggy (I wound up wearing the polo shirt and kahki pants with my leather dress and something else, probably the microdress... and I could only strip off that third dress, after that I was "naked" and wearing both the polo shirt outfit and the leather dress -- they were impossible to remove and trying to go outside in them was like not wearing anything. I eventually loaded from save and replayed several weeks to fix that...

      And I do not even know if maid outfits need to be worn to have their effect or if they just need to have been purchased. I also do not know if there's any difference between the japanese and french maid outfits. Does anyone know?

      Delete
    2. p.s. I got into that polo+leather situation by trying on all of my outfits -- i was reading their descriptions with the restricting underwear.

  5. For several versions now I've been having weird issues with condoms. Having them but not using them prevents pregnancy, and using them doesn't.

  6. I've been having an issue where, following the May 14th conversation with Maria where she gives the artifact mission, the green navigation circles which should be on the compass don't reappear. I'm stuck in the bedroom and I can't get out. I'm wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this bug and whether or not there's a fix for it.

    1. Addendum: if I refuse her request, they reappear correctly. Is this a problem on my end with my RAGS client or something or is this something other people have experienced too?

      Delete
    2. Additional addendum: I just failed to notice that I was supposed to read the note she left behind. This was 100% my fault and I am an idiot. Disregard my previous posts.

  7. I have a quick question is it possible to use debug options to add or rid yourself of certain traits?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. you can get rid of certain traits yes but you have to clear that trait section
      ex. to get rid of breast fetish you have to clear the entire sex trait section

      to do this go to add traits or add sex traits and at the bottom of the lists there is an option called clear traits use it then use the add traits options to replace the traits you want

      Delete
    2. Thank you joe :) one more question though does this also work with furry traits that were picked up?

  8. I will never forget this update.

  9. It seems there's a *critical bug* in this version, related to the ''Erotic job''.

    When going at the job for the first time (Huge 'F' breasts):
    1) There's 2 'Waitress Uniform' in the changing room.
    -It gives you the option to 'Examine' and 'Wear' them both, but once you wear one(and after removing it), the other only offer the 'Examine' option.

    2) Even after completely stripping yourself in the changing room, you cannot wear ANY type of shoes offered there.

    3) Trying to go in the ''work room'', with the uniform and no shoes, is possible but there is no option(after right-clicking) to ''start working''.
    Meaning that you are permanently trapped in this 'moment'.

    1. I DO have the RAGS 2.4.0.0. version.

    2. You don't wear any of the clothes or go into another room. Right click on the locker and choose Get To Work. You'll get a menu to choose shoes, some text about your shift, and possibly some sort of event thing. After all that is over right click on the room box (the small one above the up/down compass)and select Head Home. You'll get a message about how your doing at work, gather all your crap, and end up in your apartment.

  10. I just decided to give this game another go after setting it aside for a bit, and I am not sure if this is a bug or not yet impletmented. When I Genevieve agrees to come over, i cannot answer the door when she knocks, and the go on a date menu has no sub menus. Then every day after I keep getting a knock that I cannot answer.

  11. Hesitate to report as a bug something that may just be astoundingly bad luck, but ...

    In about 100 tries, was completely unable to trigger ANY random events by going for a walk (all save-scumming on the same day, hoping to trigger an event giving money so I could eat.) I'm still getting the events on the way to and from other places, though.

    1. I'm a different Anon from the one above, but I'm the same Anon who posted here: http://anonymousmangames.blogspot.com/2012/09/bug-fix-stream.html?showComment=1346807581702#c6080851118985012406

    2. Erm, I'm the Anon who JUST posted. I tried to preview my link to see if it worked, but apparently when I see a preview and a Capcha at the same time my brain melts down and I hit wrong buttons.

      ANYWAY! I had posted on the 9/3 release about no random events, and I said I had taken a lot of walks to try to trigger them.

      After posting, I gave up on walks and spent my free time doing other stuff, and suddenly I was encountering random events. I replied to my 9/3 post, apologizing.

      However, the above post sounds like it could be the issue I ran into in the 9/3 release, so I decided to make a clear, concise reply. In that task, I have failed miserably.

    3. Well, I'm the anon who has the first post in this thread, not the one who responded. I eventually started getting random events on walking after some time. Didn't try walking again until almost two months game-time later, when I was trying to trigger the OMG I'm 9 feet tall thing - that triggered, and so did the standard stuff eventually. (Oddly, never offered the opportunity to grow to the size of a continent before getting locked out of buying the growth serum - which may have been because I stupidly cast a shrink spell on myself.)

      A wild guess if it's not related to the giantess thing - any way the wolf claw necklace, which obviously messes with random event probabilities, is somehow screwing with this? I didn't actually buy it, but I got attacked by a wolf walking home from work shortly before I noticed walking was working again ...

      Delete
  12. Given what you said about the wolf claw necklace vanishing if your TF counter isn't at zero - you should also know it comes back when you complete a TF (cow at least, like I did.) Still makes every nighttime encounter the wolf, but doesn't start the werewolf TF.

  13. I am wondering if it is possible to have the transformations (succubus, cat-girl, cow-girl, werewolf, dragon, etc) accessible (and completable) under the "testing item" cheat.

    1. Yeah, that would be awesome. I'm getting bored of having to call the drug dealer every second if I want to rush a TF.
      And items from the Lab are once per day so that takes too long.

  15. hey nice game, youve clearly put a lot of effort into this but i was wondering if youd consider a few things?

    the sex doll bad ending. i think it kinda ruins it by warning your and asking if you really want it to happen because its meant to be a mishap and gone wrong. the option kinda wastes that point. also when you do transform i think if your out and about when it does happen then possibly a different ending could occur (such as at the mall some1 finds you and takes you home, etc...)

    and of course the obvious thing......perhaps more detailed sexy times? other than that please do keep the updates coming.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. No, don't take warnings out. Not every player (new ones especially) knows about the possibility of a bad ending.

      Delete
  16. Found the following problems (Not sure if it's fixed in this one, but since it's not listed it's probably isn't..):

    1) Completing the Dragon TF doesn't remove all the other TFs properly. I know you can't start it while you have other TFs, but if you set the active TFs back to 0% by using the cleansing draught then start and complete the dragon TF, if you milk yourself using the breast pump, it still showed that you still have udders if you got it from the cow TF.

    2) Completing the Dragon TF doesn't seem to 'complete' properly. While it shows in your examine yourself it's complete, but going to the doctor and getting a checkup results in the doctor saying you started TF but isn't completed when it is.

  17. I wish that I could consistently dress as a Femme Fatale without getting the reformed feet trait. Oh well, you win some, you lose some.

    1. Agreed. It's my most hated trait aside from nylon fetish. Wish it was succubus only.

  18. Hey, just started playing. Loving it, but having a issue. I can't seem to wear anything but sneakers. Am I simply missing something or is this a glitch? I have other shoes in my shoe rack, but when I open it and right click them, only examine appears, aside from sneakers, like I lack the capability of wearing them. I'm comfortable with high heels (because of working as a waittress and stripper) and yet I can't seem to wear even short heels at home or anything but sneakers.

    Again, am I missing something or is this an issue? Some feedback would be very much appreciated.

    1. Are you playing the version linked in this post? That problem was present in last week's release, but it should be fixed now; it's working for me.

      Delete
    2. I thought I was but maybe I'm not. I only started playing days ago. Also, a wierd development since then. I started going out as a maid for extra cash, and for once, a menu popped up asking me what shoes I wanted to wear. Only sneakers came up, so I picked those. When I went out again as a maid, it asked again but my medium heels showed up. I picked them.

      Since then, I checked my shoe rack and can now wear my medium heels when I right click them, but my strapy heels are still only examine only.

      That aside, do I have to redownload the ltest updates to fix things and also, will the saved data transfer when I do?

      Delete
    3. unfortunetly save data cannot be transferred, so you will have to start a new game, limit to the RAGS system, not the game though.

      Also the shoe issue was indeed fixed in the newest release

      Delete
    4. My shoes managed to break again despite being latest release, and when I came back to load the game later, the shoes which were still working, all broke.

      Delete
    5. Started a new game again, now everything but strappy heels is working(which is what broke first last save before too)

  19. Are there any plans to add a reverse-domination scene with the guido guy at the bar? The one with the dominatrix lady was a pleasant surprise, and I was a little let down when the guido guy dominated me anyway. If this has been answered elsewhere, I apologize for wasting time.

  20. I have problem with saved outfits after I added sunglasses in my inventory. Underwear doesn't save now. Even if I save outfit with underwear on, later when I try to use "get dressed" option underwear is always missing.

  21. Edit: after further testing it looks like problem appears after saving one of "default" (causal/work) outfits that doesn't include underwear. Weird. Custom outfits still works.

  22. when trying to exercise with form-fitting clothes exercising indoors writes "you quickly strip naked" and "Of course, it wasn't all about the exercise, was it? You feel a nice warm feeling build up in you at the thought of someone watching you run in the nude..."

    1. Nevermind, I was trying to exercise without setting a outfit from the closet for the exercise...Apparently You have to strip naked if you are already wearing the exercising outfit without setting it as exercise outfit...

      Delete
    2. I believe that your exercise outfit is initially set to "naked". And of course it ignores your current clothes in favor of your exercise outfit, when you exercise...

      Delete
  23. The microdress which Maria supplied has a typo when you acquire the "nudist" trait: in "threatens to expose you almost" the word "you" should be "your".

    (And of course its amazing how no one reacts to your wearing this dress... You might think it would attract attention...)

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. It would be fun if people would stare or otherwise react when you were wearing especially revealing outfits? And maybe an occasional juvenile prankster or judgmental observer or hot guy could take interest...

      Guys like to stare at your boobs, for example. Many even prefer talking with them over talking with you. :/

  24. I forgot to pay rent, and the game ended, and I decided to restart... and I am getting messages about my meal plan and my showering in the morning while I am in the bar...

  25. I think something in shoes routine is causing a stacking increase in non-natural charisma. I now have it floating around 90+. 100 when in heels. Never had anything like this in previous version.

    Also beach visits are bugged as well. For example visiting it in form-fitting clothes results in them being stuck as carried but not worn. If they are a part of an outfit though, you can dress in that outfit to have them fixed. I think I had some other clothes stuck like that, but I'm not sure. I'm sure it doesn't affect all the clothes though.

    BTW, would you mind adding a magic school focused on blocking or removing the side-effects of magic? Those stacking penalties are somewhat over the top atm, especially the "mind" ones. It's no big deal if you never get your natural charisma above the easy threshold, but once you do, those beeping points are worth to much to give away.

  26. I don't know if it's just me, or if I missed something, but I have not noticed any of the unique traits coming into play with this update, not sure if I missed a memo that it was being pushed back or not, but upon completion of the succubus transformation, other than the original traits that always came with it, I failed to notice any difference.

  27. I think you have plans for the shopping network: "Why did you put your phone in easy reach? NOTE: Change this."

    ReplyDelete
  28. I got the bug with non-natural charisma hitting 90 someone earlier mentioned. I also noticed a few things after completing a succubus transformaion:
    - The food court always says I'm full (the description in your old post about the changes mentioned still being able to eat)
    - Trying to get drinks at the bar no longer works.
    - I didn't get a "That particular bout of sexual activity seems to have sated your unending sexual hunger" message after seducing the security guard at the lab

    1. Oh, the bar thing may have been from being early in an unnatural pregnancy. It wasn't giving any message at first, but after a few weeks, I started getting the refusal. I could get drinks again after it passed.

  29. Is there any way I can play a character with a fetish for being with dick-girls without having my character become one? Or would that violate the curse?

  30. You know, I've always thought that it would be cool if after a certain amount of time, another of Maria's victims appeared, and they would be fighting against Maria, so you would have to choose between the new person and Maria. If you choose the new gal, then you would get missions from her attempting to win some power over Maria. Jus' sayin'.

  31. If you have a nylon fetish, along with nudist, nymphomaniac and kinky (and any pre-requisites)... and you go to the mall without wearing nylon... the mall becomes surreal.

  33. Had a game where Alice asked me into her office for the Exotic/Private Dancer promotion, but wasn't there, leaving me stuck at the club. Might be related to me accidentally missing the orientation on the first monday.

    1. I do believe missing the Orientation messes with the positioning of the NPC in some way so she's not in the room for promotion but instead where you'd find her for Orientation (room to the right)

  35. I have some suggestions! (But doesn't everyone?)

    First, a bug, so I can fit in here: In the supermodel dream there's a you/your pronoun mixup.

    Anyways, I would like to be able to get the unique outfit earlier in the game, somehow. Perhaps with restrictions (like not being able to wear anything else for a few weeks), but mostly I would like to see how it looks before my inhibitions drop. Since it takes several months to get, I usually do not have many inhibitions left when I get it. I think it would be fun to see it and see it transform and stuff...

    A variation on this theme is that it might be interesting to have some mechanism for a particular dream to become "stuck" and "likely".

    1. Whilst we are on the subject, I would like to join the ideas train. I reckon that the robot girl should have different wings, as a gynoid having organic bird wings growing out strikes me as a bit odd. You could make them metal, or maybe jet wings? The gynoid is my favourite tf, as it makes gameplay a bit more unique, what with the toolkit and all.

  38. I ran into a crazy situation... I had been surfing the internet all day (a saturday) and went from 92 or 93 arousal to 98 arousal, and then could not get to sleep, so I went to the bar, got turned down and got jumped by my phantom seductress... taking my arousal down to 48, so I was not interested in finding a date.

    So I went home, and now am too aroused to sleep but not enough to masterbate... (I think I can use the testing item to cheat my way out of this situation but is there some other alternative?)
