Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.07.01] [Aleksey90]

[JDreaper]

anyone have the lastest saves i cant finish alice message and the watching movie event with ann

 

[FLuffyman]

For now? More scenes with Alice, more scenes with Lisa, Olivias story was changed, there will be no WhatsTheNameOfThePotChick and Kira's niece was announced.

Wouldn't Kira's niece be Lisa and Alice?

 

[Dracconic Evolution]

Not sure. How do I get it. Looking at "memories" appears she is on the couch for massage.

When referring to the 17/18 opportunities you will need to see if you have "Control" as that is the only 1 that can't be obtained if you are an enemy of Eric. When talking about the memories you would need to provide a screen shot showing us which ones you do not have as not all can be obtained in 1 playthrough as mentioned previously.

Is there one on the couch during normal massage with Alice where he touches her vagina ?

 

[Gurzu]

So what is the changed?

In that case you are talking about memories and not the opportunities (which correspond to the 17/18 number you mentioned before). In that memory you need to watch Alice in her room as part of her "Blog" opportunity after giving her a 1 sweet massage on the couch. Then you should be able to go a little further on the couch massages.

I've been waiting for Eric's storyline to finish. How many more updates does he have?

yep, my bad. It's her daughter.
A few pages back you'll find a preview pic.

Hello, does anyone have Aleksey's discord?

I have already been told a way how to do it but you don't have to.
That's a new gameplay mechanic. You can get a credit on the web which of course you have to pay back later.

The cigarette event is indeed a bit strange. You have to give her the cigarettes in order to set her up.

The cigarette event does not need Max to have cigarettes himself. He's looking for the cigarettes that Alice already has in her room. That's why you cannot look for cigarettes at 13:00 because at that time she has them since she's smoking outside.

Buying the cigarettes is just a mechanic to make her happy by giving them to her.

Well, I had the impression that as soon as I gave them to her, it was possible to set her up when at the same time before giving them to her it wasn't. I'll give it a try at some point to see if my impression was correct or yours

 

[AbrahamFroman]

I made a patch to allow you to change the MC's name from Max to something else.

To use the patch, copy zz_patch.rpy into the \game folder and restart your game.

Enjoy.



The authors have modified the code so my patch no longer works.
I'll leave it here in case someone else wants to take a stab at it.
For me personally, I'm over it. This is why we can't have nice things.
I blame public schools.

My two cents: Instead of crippling my silly patch, maybe the code monkeys could spend time fixing the problem. I'll hold my breath. {/sarcasm}

Life is short.

That is correct.



While Alice smokes (her plan_name is smoke), hence you cannot look for Cigarette in her room.
The same goes with Searching the Secret Book when she reads it.

I would suggest you to correct the code, as the current code is not going to do any changes to this game.
It maybe a generic format for most games, but this game doesn;t use any variable "mcname" or "player_name"
Moreover, there are 2 variables in your file.

The code in your attached file zz_patch.rpy

    $ mcname = renpy.input("What is your main character's name?")
    $ mcname = mcname.strip()
    if mcname == "":
        $ player_name="Max"

This is not going to work, but simply popup every time the game loads.

On that Note: I would not recommend using this file until there is some change in code.

The game literally stopped working. After the loading small screen nothing happens Had to remove some save files to make it work again.

I made this patch for myself and I never entered nothing as a name. It should now work, as advertised.

Now, if you like the name "Max" then just press enter or, better yet, don't use this patch.

Thanks for playing.

I don't know about this remake, but I know in the original I was pretty sure that you could reduce the cooldown on her starting to smoke again (making it so you got the pool smoking events and the opportunity to set her up faster) by giving them to her.

IIRC, she would go several days without smoking after getting caught and punished (presumably Ann took them away from her and it took her a few days to get some more), but you could get her to start smoking again right away by giving her cigarettes.

But I haven't played this remake enough to know if that mechanic works the same. Or maybe if I am just misremembering how it had worked in the original.

 

[memelman]

Are you supposed to get additional money when you do chores like buying groceries or cleaning the pool?

I know you did in the original, but I am pretty sure I am not in my playthrough of the current version. It sure makes the early game extra grindy, especially as even more events are tied to items compared to the original, sometimes consumable items you have to keep re-buying.

140 dollars a week does not let you accomplish very much, particularly when you have to immediately start saving 500.

 

[thegrindisreal]

Lisa does not ask me for help about homework...
Can Alice fulfill both smoking requests about not wearing clothes?
