New publication on Patreon today. Join our patrons and get these updates now.

New interactions with NPCs. Continued.

- Fixed a division by 0 bug that appeared after the last publication.
- All location layouts that track basic parameters of NPCs on a date with MC are optimized and translated into working code.
- All locations that had duplicate counting of some NPC parameters, which caused failures and incorrect work of game mechanics of interaction with NPC, were deleted or moved to a single general location of handling date events.
- Friendship points are now changed to target specific NPCs who interact with the MC on a date. This should improve NPC behavior and make it more believable.
- Delete some variables to reduce the likely errors in the game mechanics responsible for NPCs' behavior on a date with an MC.
- Improved NPC's reaction to MC's actions, making the change of friendship points more consistent.
- Fixed a bug with zero orgasms for MCs at the start of sex with female characters.
- Made the reaction of female NPCs who do not participate in group sex to MC sex with other female NPCs. Given the level of relationship with the MC, their sexual orientation and attitude towards group sex, they can leave the company.
- Made it possible for the MC, at some point, to observe the remaining female NPCs who do not participate in group sex and have not left the group.
- An option if there are several such NPCs.

22e.png

- A variant if the female NPC is in the singular.

33e.png
44e.png

- At the end of sex, such NPCs will lose some of their scheduled orgasm points.
- Some fixes and edits.
We think that we should not stop at only one option and plan to allow MCs to watch as NPCs will form couples and have sex next to each other.
The situation remains difficult. Shelling and hostilities continue. A lot of time is spent on helping the elderly and the needy. We continue to work on the project whenever possible.
Replace the game files.
Place the "sexview" folder in the "proETO" folder.
Thank you very much for YOUR help and support !!!

Hello,

I am quite fed up with how few of the female NPCs are bisexual or lesbian in my game (the chances are really low to begin with, and I clearly had bad luck). I downloaded QSP Save Editor to change that a little bit, but I can't make head or tail of the variables to find those that determine what orientation an NPC is. Could someone help me?

I also wonder if there is a variable that would allow (if the game has them) a bisexual group sex scene. I had one time where one male and one female neighbours came to visit me, but I couldn't get them to have sex because none of the female neighbours are currently interested in women (see point above). Is FEMLIKEGROUP [NPC#] the right one? What are the values? Is it simply 0/1 for false/true or is there a gradation with 2 meaning "love it" and 1 is just "interested"?

Thank you for your help

FEMLIKEGROUP [NPC#] This variable describes the female NPC's attitude towards group sex and orgies. The value 0 is not acceptable. A value of 1 may accept and participate.

This variable is for female roommates.
SOJfemlikeGroup

This variable is for the girlfriend (who recorded in the NPC's phone and stats)
FFlikeGroup [NPC#].

This variable is for acquaintances.
FemlikeGroup[NPC#]

sexTipFem [NPC#] This variable is the NPC's sexual orientation.
The value is 1 - hetero, 2 - bisexual, 3 - lesbian.

for roommate: SOJsexTipFem
for girlfriends: FFsexTipFem [NPC#]
For acquaintances: sexTipFem [NPC#]

Orgies with female NPCs.

- Continued to work on editing and improving the visual component of the game. Expanded the display of some aspects of life MC (available when you download the whole game). We thank our friend Plotnik for his help and work.
- Fixed bug with moving ornaments from MC's bag to the closet in her apartment.
- Fixed MC's arousal growth when watching porn videos on your laptop on the internet.
- Fixed MC's arousal when participating in adult film shoots.
- Fixed the display of pregnancy in the additional description window.

11e.png

- Also, now you can watch how the belly grows MC during pregnancy in the window of information about the character.

22e.png

- Finished working on the basis of orgies, in which the female NPCs participate. The MC, during sex, can observe up to 4 groups of female NPCs having sex nearby at the same time. This adds up to a total of 15 individuals.

33e.png
44e.png

- The new gameplay mechanics take into account the number of NPCs who have agreed to participate in an orgy and make groups of them according to their number.
- The MC has the ability to observe all the stages of events in these groups, from the already familiar to you from the last publication, to the various sexual interactions that the NPCs choose at will.

55e.png
66e.png

- By continuing to interact with their partners, the MC at key moments has the ability to watch everything that happens around them until all NPCs are satisfied and the orgy is complete.
Together with you, we have taken a big step toward the next stage of the game's sex mechanics, which will involve both male and female NPCs at the same time. We hope that prudence will prevail, that there will be a peaceful sky over our heads again, and that we will have the opportunity to continue working on this project.

Replace the game files.
Replace the "sexview" folder in the game folder.
Replace the "berem" folder in the "picb" folder.
Thank you very much for YOUR help and support !!!

Do you have a paypal or something?
I tried to just make a donation through patreon but it keeps being monthly & I hate it. When I canceled it (I thought it'd be only the nenewal) it canceled everything & now I feel bad (send a PM if you don't wanna share here idk).
Thanks

Patreon did not cancel everything.
You are patron until the end of the month but it does not show on your feed. That's most likely why you thought you canceled everything.
You still have access if you visit the patreon.

Full cancelations have to be approved by the owner of the patreon site including a refund.

Ah, thank you very much. I applied it to several neighbours and it worked...on most of them. I imagine I am not friendly enough with the others to get this type of answer when flirting. Anyway, the others are changed, so I don't care if some don't.

Again, thank you.

It may be a bug, actually. Out of curiosity (and a little bit of stubbornness), I changed this NPC's sexTipFem value to 2 (as well as 3), went to talk to her, failed with the Coquet/Flirt/Gallivant/Kiss actions, then checked again in the save file and... she was back to 1!

Note that she is married, but, even if there is an automatic correction to prevent her from being exclusively lesbian so she can stay with her husband (which would make perfect sense), she should be stable as a bisexual.

Consider the fact that the array of all friendly characters (which are fixed in the phone and MC statistics) starts with [1].
The array of acquaintances begins with [0] (this character is used to create a company, so that there is not a large variation in financial wealth and age) . So when you change the characteristics of a character that, for example, 3 in the list, you must use the number [2] in the array variable.

Friendship variables:

roommate : SOJdrujbaFem
friend : FFdrujbaFem[NPC#]
acquaintance: drujbaFem[NPC#]

Naturally the NPC must have a level of trust and sympathy in order to engage in a sexual relationship. This level usually starts at 100 friendship units.
The maximum value of friendship is 300.
The minimum is around 30. Below that, a relationship can break down.

Stumbled across a bug:-
Bank deposits - once you have placed money on deposit, you can add to the value on deposit (fair enough), but the value that you add to the deposit does not get removed from your purse but does get added to the deposit total, so you can add infinite cash into the deposit account if you have the patience to do so :)

Thanks for your help!!! It's always easier to fix than to find a mistake.

Well, while I indeed misunderstood this part, I did not make that mistake because I “worked” differently: I checked the numbers through their names and then sought out the other variables. And I can confirm it worked because I checked the progression of the statistics before and after a conversation, thus making sure it was the right NPC key, since she was the only one to which a change should apply here.

I just tested it again. I started the conversation with one neighbour NPC (#22 for her name, sexTipFem and DrujbaFem stats), with her being at 2 in sexTipFem and 96 in DrujbaFem. I talked with her, growing her DrujbaFem to 112 (I made sure to do that before trying to flirt). Then I flirted with her and got rejected because "I misunderstood her sexual orientation".

And, lo and behold, her DrujbaFem fell to 92 and her sexTipFem switched to 1!

(note that, when in doubt at one point about the NPC indexes, I just forced all NPCs' sexTipFem to 2 or 3, just to be sure I did not miss the one I tested)

You should take this with a grain of salt, because there are only presumptions. Also, it's going to be a long text.

In Girl Life the bf / gf you met are created on spot, with static likes / dislikes. That means if you are unlucky enough to meet someone you like but that person have unreasonable demands (get more piercings / tattoos, increase your bottom, decrease your breasts, wear cheap clothes, etc) you are stuck with their constant complains. There is no way to change their preferences, only choice you have is to become what they want or dump them.

Both games (About It and Girl Life) derive from Eto.
I believe it's reasonable to assume that the bf / gf system in About It share the same logic: when a potential partner is created, certain stats are set in stone. Like gender preferences for example. Maybe the behavior in bed can be changed with enough... perseverance. I don't know. Only the dev can answer that.

In short, I don't think you can dynamically change the sexual orientation of the NPCs despite the famous "spaghetti are straight until they get hot and wet" saying. You can however dig in the game files and alter the way the NPCs preferences are assigned - for example making all the females bisexual or lesbian. After that, the next girl you meet in Night Club will be eager and willing :)

Again - just a theory. I could be wrong.
Cheers.

Yes, I understand what you mean, and, as a whole, I agree with you. By the way, as I understand the latest changelogs, changing an NPC's sexual preferences in game is only possible for a roommate for now.

But that was not my point. Initially, my problem here was that I was unlucky and got really few female NPCs that were bi/lesbians, and all of them at work (meaning that interactions were few and far between). So, I asked how I could change this directly in the save files (not in game, but by cheating). And that's when I met this issue that, even after changing it in these files, the value would revert back to the default “1|straight” value, which is probably linked to a bug somewhere in the code (I imagine to a justified feature that would prevent a married woman to be a lesbian but should allow her to be bisexual).

1. that's not cheating, it's creative gameplay, ok? :p
2. I assume the base value doesn't change, and various variables get added in order to achieve the final result. Eg. you can get a girl drunk enough to forget she's not really into girls and sleep with you. So you have the NPC #99 with a hardcoded "sexual preference = 1 + 0 + 0" (straight). You can befriend her, then drink with her, maybe even drug her up to the point of accepting same sex intercourse. Her "sexual preference = 1 + 1 + 0" (bisexual). After she leaves your apartment she gets robed and raped by gopniks. She becomes "1 + 1 + 1" (lesbian). She sobers up. (1 + 0 + 1). After six months the rape memories start to fade. She's now back at "1 + 0 + 0".

I honestly don't want to dig in game files - I'm still waiting for the public version 0.94 with all those nice changes / features.
And guess what, I'm not interested in straight content, so if you still have issues with it by the time the dev releases the public version, I'd be happy to help.

Cheers.

Tried to change the values of the pregnancy on my save but have no clue how to advance the numbers of days pregnant, what's the value in the save?
Coz no matter what I change she's still at day one.
Thanks
