Is there a way to increase the Res beyond 1920 x 1080 if you aren't using Hardmode. Also, is there a way to zoom even further than the current limit it allows?

It will be very difficult for a first time run. But I recommend the hard mode mod especially since the game offers more than just a challenge ;) no matter which mode you pick.

If you've played Grimm's games before like maid and dungeon and thought they were too easy or you wanted to be able to see sexual content in normal gameplay without just feigning failure or mistakes, then hardmode mod is for you. Boss fights are intentionally not made to be any harder and only the very end of the game is slightly harder because you're on a timer. Vanilla AQE is hugely boring to me because of those things and that's why the mod was made. Good content but it was just wasted in vanilla.

I've put together a 'hardmode' mod for AQE primarily for myself but it seems like it is fairly balanced so I'm sharing it here.
NOTE: Only works with AQE version 1.01
Download
mod v2.3:
CRC32 : 955115CB
MD5 : D4E11477F9E5A6001C7C751C7F057917
SHA1 : F248D78628E5BC99DCAC628AA4D781A432E38DEB
Read the readme.txt for installation info.


What it does:
Adds->
-Unlimited resolution (switch to "Actual")
-Native refresh rate FPS (>60Hz)
-Void monster variant: teleporting, reduced physical damage taken
-Volatile monster variant: reduced magical damage taken, explodes
-Ravager monster variant: rapidly fucks for 25% heat gain, always deals thrust damage
-Sex struggle difficulty increase with animation rhythm mechanic (Press left/right immediately after the purple flash on thrust for more escape progress)
-Stamina (top new resource bar)
-Arousal (mid new resource bar)
-Heat (bottom new resource bar)
and new mechanics primarily around sex encounters and these new resources, often increasing game difficulty, exposure to sexual content and increasing total playtime.
Records creampie, thrust, mount counts for your current run.
Changelog:
v2.3
Reduced monster variant color tint strength for void and ravager
Added a short duration of no-collision damage to void variant to make them easier to fight
Basic attacks now prevent void variant monsters from teleporting for a short duration

Added ravager monster variant (light reddish tint):
- Slightly increased HP
- Fucks Ellen rapily for 25% heat and then resumes normal sex progression
- Always does 1 HP damage thrusts
- ~18% Spawn chance

v2.2
Added deterministic random for monster variant spawning:
- Each monster will spawn their variants (randomly) exactly the same for everybody, every run
Added native refresh rate support for monitors >60hz
Fixed a time fraction discard error with grimm's animation code
Updated grimm's animation code to use the proper update method

v2.1
Added void monster variant:
- Slightly increased HP
- Teleports to Ellen's location 1/2 second in the past

there is no already full unlocked save data ??? really like this game..
Some people have shared their saves in this thread I'm pretty sure. There's also a cheat mod that you can search for. But if it's just the animations you're interested in, there's a hotkey in the game that unlocks it without any further requirements.

I get you. But I also tried the hardmode mod for a bit, and found that immensely boring. Mostly because the pace of the game has been brought down by a lot due to the increased difficulty. May have to give it another try one day.

I uploaded the first part of my gameplay on hard over here - https://f95zone.to/threads/alien-quest-eve-v1-01-grimhelm.6016/page-117#post-3955088

I think the only issue I have right now is just having to wait for my mp to restore. Other than that, I think its much better. On the original, you didn't have to wait for mp because it was just too easy.

On another note, I decided not to upload anymore if anyone is waiting for more videos. My upload speed is way too slow, and I prefer playing with as much fps as I can get since my laptop is pretty old.

Just so you know, basic attacks generate mana in hardmodemod. You get something like 1-2% maximum MP as mana for each enemy hit. In the 2.3 patch, I actually reduced basic attack stamina drain. Whenever I get some quality time and hopefully remember, I'll look at balancing that system so it works well at early levels with no points invested into MP pool. It needs to be enough of a reward to generally choose auto attacking instead of just waiting for MP to regenerate. Currently monsters are so dangerous that I might just hit them once while running but never commit to attacking more than once. I'll check it out.

so anyone knows what his New project is?
Nope, only clue is a picture he posted on his patreon, while asking for ideas, so even that picture might be an earlier work that won't make it in the new game. It should be somewhere in this thread, but I'm too lazy to search for it, sorry.

Here is the full save file. I beat the game in 1 run for like 4 hours. Put it in the same directory where "AlienQuest-EVE.exe" is located.

Tips:

1. Don't waste your time manually trying to get all the scenes, when you beat the game the whole gallery is unlocked.

2.Don't invest a single point into mana. In the early game, go for power, in the mid game go for health , in the late game go for critical strike chance.

3.Potions do NOT get restored in a save point , only the potions you had when you saved are there , save them as much as possible for bosses. To regain health in the early game, go back to the save point. Some enemies (Female and Male nechromorphs) spawn quite a lot on death so you can farm really heavily to prepare for bossfights.

4. When you have some but no all keycards try to explore every possible corner , there are many hidden things! Weapons and abilities will glow with a bright vertical line next to their location , but bonus items are hidden, search every corner!

5. With all abilities/weapons unlocked, the highest DPS is the double jump spin attack , use it vs the brain boss and the final boss.

6. You are damage immune during sex scenes (apart from mini necromorps) , abuse this mechanic when fighting bosses!

7. Never never never NEVER go for revives after death - you will need every last drop of health.

ENJOY :)

Can anyone help me with this? I have unlocked all animations but one. It looks to be one of those enemies with two animations but either it never wants to do it or its a combo one but I have no idea with what or where it occurs. Here is a picture if that helps. Thanks to anyone who helps me out.

If I remember correctly, it's the same mob with the animation left of the one you miss. You can also press f1 in the gallery to unlock everything if you don't want to walk through half the map.
