It looks like you have more than enough experience with Illusion games to expect buggy product with poor performance. Not even comparing to AA2 or any older product, just comparing to HoneySelect or Koikatsu, and those products been patched for months with constant community help. Now Illusion has more work to do, as they abandon or just find a hole in Japanese law and releasing their product for wider audience. For some reason, before when Illusion games been strictly released to Japanese market, apparently they got enough customers and money and paid DLC's brought them additional penny in their pocket.
It's a quite common practice when games being released as full playable versions, but since day one players receiving purely broken product.
Money's never going to solve their problems. Despite being such prolific producers of erotic games, it's still socially frowned upon to be associated with the porn industry in Japan, so it's a common practice for programmers working in companies like Illusion to lie to their families and friends about where they work; this leads to a lot of them jumping ship to a mainstream developer as soon as they accumulate enough experience, leaving only amateurs and fresh graduates to fill the vacuum they leave behind.

Illusions' games will always have that buggy, indie feel to it, because they're effectively always going to be an indie company.

Yeah well, the bugs can be pointed out to them if people would be more open about catching problems and showing them... I know one of my favorite game series is made by a small german dev company, despite the quality of their game being a huge and ambitious 4x space game... I had to send a literal game screenshot of a rear-mounted turret on a ship to show them the offset was sinking inside the ship itself. Because they execute the game in the native engine they made for it and didn't see the offset being an issue.

Now why a game company doesn't have like a normal tower computer just sitting on standby to playtest it themselves... \o/ I dunno, seems like such a simple job, if I were a head dev I'd stranglehold the release of a game and sit in my house for days playing the product and catch as many issues as I can before release like dang.

But thanks for the added boost of knowwwledge x3, I figured illusion had more reasons than just financial with how they operate. Surely being a quiet entry point for new developers and programmers to slip into the mainstream while leaving the company with fresh blood constantly does explain quite a bit, but it's never always a One issue situation.

The game needs more position variations, the ones we got from HS are getting stale while PH was a step in the right direction, I really feel that Illusion should try and add more in the next update/xpac.

I am getting a weird saving glitch.
It seems my created characters loose all their custome(modded) parameters upon loading up in game.
They loose their skin overlays, and custom (yellow) bones modifications.
When i edit them in Game though termianl afterwards - everything is ok.

By the way - can anybody share cool Skin overlay textures, or advise where to get them?

Are you playing on laptop?
Is by any chance the game is runining with integrated intel graphics instead of 950?
Also, 950 might not be enough ))
I am running RTX 2080 maxq also in 1600x900 and get like 20-30 fps
As laways Illusion games are VERY very unpotimised.

Try running on fullscreen and turn the graphics to highest because it barely affected the fps for me.
Update to better repack 1.3 for the best performance boost (idk if there actually is a boost).
Then try to have H scene during the night and in an open area such as the beach to avoid all lighting effects and unnecessary objects.
RTX 2060 laptop here and get 60+ fps with all the conditions met from above.

I have hardfreezes but the fps is pretty normal... with the only exception being the H-scenes (10-40fps). I have uploaded a video for you, you are not alone :p I baked the video down to limit filesize to ~400Mb instead of the original 1.2Gb; the videos FPS is not the same as the game's... you can see the FPS in the bottom right corner. I'm sorry if this is obvious to you, I am just making sure :p

My system has a gaming grade Intel i5 processor (looked into replacing it with an i7 but it was futile at the time; if you take into consideration what my motherboard was compatible with), 32 Gb DDR3 RAM, MSI GeForce 1070 8Gb graphics card and the game is running from a Solid State drive :-D I do not think you will get any more fps squeezed out lol

I bought COD:MW the other day too and that is also a load of crap concerning optimization; but we need the lootboxes more than bugfixes right ;D? and Valve decided to release a new version of a map called Cache in CS:GO made by a guy in the community; that map decreases my fps with everything from 40-50 fps down from a steady 128. Unoptimization is a thrillkill!

Nevermind - looks like any time you open editor to edit the girl the custom parameters are not loaded, so you just have to amnually reload the card for them to work.

Still, pointing me to cool skin overlays would be awesome.
Here some tribal tatoo for body i made myslef. Not very good, but it works.

I SEEN IT! I saw the girls H each other! XDD frikkin I was just sitting out at the ruins pier just fishing when I heard the noise and went to investigate, they were inside one of the buildings just going at it!

they really like to do things when you're not around, that was a one-off situation, and then I saw a girl talking to the merchant later. I know it's a stretch but they are all like over 75% naughty at like 80% the time, I know two are like always 100% when I check, yet they don't ask me for H... happened around the time I told the main girl no and she went off to diddle herself. I'm just curious if her selfish personality may have a jealousy complex and she's making the girls uncomfortable to ask, like I said it's a huge stretch, but it is weird that all are at 3 hearts but for days in the game they just haven't approached me to H despite me doing it often at the start with them, and their moods being overwhelmingly naughty. I could just be overlooking like perversion and darkness traits or something.
Ecchi Skills:
Lust
Burning
Slut
Cursed Body
Lesbian Lover

(alt: M - if you like night creepin')

Status Traits:
Get their Transformation/Perversion/Hentai/Dirtiness, Trust, Girl Power/Pheromone/Femininity, and Darkness high... Like 1000+

Sociability/Sociality is also up there... 500+ so she will seek out interactions with others. Avoid vigilance, this is being guarded against immoral behaviors.

Also in the Maker, "Desires" of Stimulation/Rousing/Pump Priming, Pleasure/Ecstasy/Rapture, and Impish/Little Devil/Deviant.

All Lifestyles will be more or less the same, with Baby, Excitement Seeker, Armchair, and Getter being the best ones for insatiable females, while Driver is worst and Controller, in spite of how it sounds, is meh...

If my girls can't H me they'll rape Beauty, the Shop Merchant and leave her in quite precarious places, like through holes in walls you need to crawl through, on top of buildings and such...

They will become insatiable whores...

Aiming for kind of an alt girl look. Could be better, could be worse.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this..

Would anybody be able to point me in the direction of some Final Fantasy cards?
Be cool to have some Viera/Miq'ote (FFXIV) or Cindy Aurum/Aranea Highwind (FFXV). Maybe the girls from FFVIII?

Thanks in advance!

Performance issues, potential workaround(s)...

Also note: for those suffering from really poor (constant -- not spiked or frozen for a moment scenarios, this will happen) frame rates when playing... Of course, lower graphics settings, for Nvidia cards kill Anisotropic settings, all off (from what I understand AMD cards don't have this as a modifiable setting)...

In game, only release girls as needed until you unlock the housing island. Travel to the housing island (you'll notice a 50%+ bump in frames), build a decent home and setup all the things you need (farm plots, chicken coup, playground, library, kitchen, bathroom/bathing facilities, bedrooms) then invite two of your girls to the housing island. Then unlock whatever girls aren't unlocked on the main island and train them up fast. Now alternate back and forth 1-2 days at a time and you will notice a 25%+ bump in frames as a constant, with common average frames riding higher than 60fps.

Note: if in the beginning with just the Merchant and first girl, if you aren't getting at least a common average of 25+ fps, this game will be unplayable for you. You either need a new graphics card, or you are bottlenecking at the processor, RAM, motherboard, or the Hard Disk. Use your resource monitor (on Windows there is a built in one in the Task Manager) to see what is being slammed the hardest. Also, I noticed that the game wants to pull a pretty constant 8-12GB of RAM with spiked that go above 16GB at times. If you have less than 8GB of RAM this will likely be unplayable, and under 12 you will likely freeze a lot randomly as the girls move about...

I am working on a mod to optimize the video settings and also to add additional girls to the game (for those without much issue running 4 girls, the merchant, and player in the same zone) I am thinking of using the housing island terminal as the location to add more girls. This way if you add in 4-5 on the housing island, you know you will still perform well. If you add in a 6th and it starts slamming the computer, you can send 1 to the Ruined Island. This way people can establish their own maximum and spread them between the two islands accordingly.
