Feel like getting nowhere. Now on day 41 haven't been able to have option to buy Alice lingerie for her blog or interact with Aunt Kira in lounge on Wed and Sun 3am according to walkthrough. Please help and thanks :(

For Alice, you must wait for the storyline with Eric to Begin (in war path) and continue peeping on her at 20:00 or 21:00 via her room or by camera.
For Kira, I think it's tie with the "Mentor" storyline

After playing a little bit with the 0.06.04 version, I have to admit: this game does many things better (sometime a lot, sometimes a little) than the original. The art is awesome and the game itself...now let's say some improvements to the original were necessary.
The game itself is "basic"-story for me. Aside from the (nowadays) once-so-often story, I like that Max is now capable of using his cams to spy at others. The cam/money-earning system is easier to understand. The candy-system is interesting way of keeping the girls happy. The simple fact the girls now change clothes (hopefully they get some more clothes later) and you have multiple scenes for events (showering, etc) makes it way more likeable to play than the original.
But as always: somethings are not so good.
The opportunities system which gives you hints about next steps, sounds great, but as I played it now:
You have to progress opp. a, to get progress in opp. c, so you can progress further in opp. b.
This is somehow a lot more complicated than you would wish. I understand, that everything you do has consequences...but if you would draw a flowchart, it looks very uh, let's say unorganized (at least for me). And this is under the premise of 3 possible gamepaths, along the fact we are still in the beginning, I think we will have a lot of trouble later, especially when you can miss opportunities.

Is anyone else getting the error where you visit Eric in Ann's room? Whenever I go to see him I get a rollback/ ignore etc error.

keep getting the same error as stated above:

an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "game/core/core.rpy", line 445, in <module>
File "game/core/04function.rpy", line 531, in SetAvailableActions
File "game/core/04function.rpy", line 186, in TalkMenuItems
File "game/core/04function.rpy", line 173, in GetTalksTheme
KeyError: u'catch.Kira'

Even when restarting twice. Always when I should be catching Eric, so can't advance

I agree its a bit messy, but it has to be done this way, otherwise you'll get glaring inconsistencies like we had in the original BB.
If us as the player have opp A and opp B and we choose to progress only on opp A to a point lets say, being able to have sex with Alice, at the same time on opp B she will slap you for looking at her cleavage. It makes no sense and it doesn't show structural character integrity. It happened a lot in the original, and i'm happy Aleksey is taking care of that in this game.

But i agree the game needs a better hint system, there's a lot of players completly lost not knowing what to do next, and that's poor game design.

Fix for cigarettes. v.0.06.0.02-pc

Looked on pornolab and didn't find any solution.

The game falls each time when starts the event of searching cigarettes in Alisa's room. As i understand there is some troubles with lables, so i just cut this mini game and Max always finds it.

(just unpack inside the game folder)

Would it be better for me to be on war path with Eric?

As I said: all actions have consequences, but with the "old" opportunities system you may think too often that you can progress in oneof these very easy, when you can't.
I had to run around a long time, to progress in the kira-questline (which are late at night) so I can finally have progress in mentor...

No...okay...yes and no. I mean giving a simple questline as it is in most mmo's, wouldn't be fine, but a better understanding of what to do next would help a lot.

Overall I would say this game is going the right way, but needs a little rework in the opportunities system.
I'm curious how it will go on...

I tried to use Unre.bat to extract the CGs but it says that there is no python.exe and I can't use the unren like I always do.

Someone can help me?

Thanks
