You gotta wait 12 more hours maybe it's coming out tomorrow for you

The halloween event is still a massive RNG fest to get a doable board though. Even with your tactics you're lucky if you get 6.5 (the target for Halloween according to the official walkthrough) and even that is often hard to get. I'm usually stuck at 6.0 or 6.25 with the same tactics you're using.

Somewhere in this monstrous thread is a variable guide. I don't recall who put it together but here are the party planning variables you can set in the console or with URM. Don't dump to the console in the middle of party planning or DPC resets everything.

pp_money= 20-22 is good enough. This is for party planning.
pp_needs_met = [[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],[True, True, True, True],]
pp_multiplier=9
pp_perk_list[0] = True (cups not needed for beer)
pp_perk_list[1] = True (trash not needed for food)
pp_perk_list[2] = True (cups not needed for drinks)

Alright brothers, friends (and the rest of you), it's time. I'm logging off until I've gotten sick of the game I've played Episode 11 to my heart's content. My darling Bella, lovely Sage, sweetheart Maya, beloved Jill, and the angelic Yoga Girl, I'm coming

Oh and Josy :hidethepain:
Okay but for real, I can't wait to see Josy too Her and all the other girls I love!

Now then. Time to kill Vinny and save Rio. Gentlemen, I'll see you all on the other side.

Is it actually out to Patrons? I don't really mind a one time subscription to get the game. But I'm not going to subscribe to DPC for a full year+ inbetween updates.

I don't like using URM (or any other mod) to mod the game, I only use it to see if a choice changes a variable. Other than that I play BAD or any other AVN as vanilla as it can get. Thanks for the tip however for people who do want to use it.

Great advice, then they will complain when they game gonna crash.

To be honest I can usually hit a 7x easily as long as I've gotten at least two free speakers from the initial random allocation and first free selections along with a keg and preferably a pizza or liquor, and taking the no cups for beer perk. If I don't get the speakers I just restart episode 9 and roll again as it only takes 30-60 seconds on skip.

The key is to get at least three of each person's desires, with the ones I skip in the first one being Nick's decor (because he's the only person that wants it), Rusty's 3 liquors (which take $6 alone), and Tommy's desire for drugs. The real trick is to share as many "activation" items as possible (i.e. snacks sharing the same bin token) as otherwise you lose too many slots.

Even with the most expensive optional events selected I tend to get 7.25x

So I'm curious because even with the walkthrough, it seems unavoidable but can you actually pursue Bella w/o entangling Jill/hurting her in the final choice? I really should setup a full Bella CHIK route but like the prior comments we've all made, goddamn minigames but I prefer the money making they offer vs how scarce $$$ can be in a non-minigame run.

I keep saves after every episode and I think the key junction for Jill is basically not kissing her at the Tennis date and not taking it further in Bella's house with her in episode 5.

If you avoid those two items you should easily just remain friends with her.

I don't try to max everything out, though I usually pump up the money so I don't have to mess around thinking too much.

I used Scrappy mod and my saves' re alright

That might not be the case anymore when ep 11 hits though.

Ep 10 was fine, though

The money is typically relatively low maintenance on any subsequent playthrough, as it's the 2D art pieces that eat up the most.

Honestly, maxing out your Brawler stats quickly breaks the economy so much because once at max you can earn $2 from every free roam just from that, meaning once you get the second phone every free roam moment allows you to earn $4 within maybe three minutes.

I also spend a lot on Madame and the wallet upgrades on each route, even on routes where (currently) she is unavailable if you don't go for "Others".

DPC knows mods are unavoidable for a game like his but he still chooses to make our lives annoying by making mod-unfriendly updates and fixes.

I usually replay and prep the routes before the near releases to freshen up the saves based on new paths/twists and keep a clean .rar file ready for an update.

I just use URM to get certain scenes with dialogue changes or needing an attribute to unlock it.

For example, Mona and Camilla needs to be Huge DIK and I was neutral.
So used URM to get that.

Other than that URM has been a DIK in the literal sense lol

Setting any value above the current max (e.g., setting pocket money to anything above 10, or setting it above the max of 5 or 8 earlier in the game before you upgrade the wallet) may well crash or cause weird behavior. You can tweak the ft_money for the fish budget to a fair amount above what you need. Play it safe and don't get crazy and it seems to be fairly free of issues.

 

[iggy.]

If you all want to play with console, just use Unren, be careful during free roams because it will softlock your game

Im still expecting to see a load of people posting about crashes. especially newer accounts

I know the game by heart so I can make a full run in no time, but I'm sure my modded saves will be alright. I just use it for the full rewards
