I managed to modify some Nephelym information using hex edit (race, gender, traits) thanks to a useful comments that some people posted here some time ago. I wasn't too keen on downloading and executing BOTNTools because of the virus flag (even if it might very well be a false positive), so I decided to make my own simple tool for editing save files.

You can browse through your list of Nephelyms (including the breeder) and modify their race, gender and traits.

I made this tool in Python, so I provide the python script files for people that don't want to execute random exe files on the internet or prefer to use the scripts themselves. You'll need to execute botn_m.py using a relatively moden version of Python. For people who don't care, I also provide the tool compiled into a single .exe which doesn't need Python or any other dependency.

For the sake of completeness, I will briefly describe how to edit files using this tool. You'll first see the following UI when starting the application:

Go to "File->open save" and select the save you want to edit. After the tool has finished processing the save, it will display the list of Nephelyms. By selecting them, you can see their information in the respective fields. You can see my save as en example:

Note: you can see that I have some random Nephelym with the human breeder class. This is because I was previously messing around with the save files. Fun fact, you can actually swap almost all races to the human breeder class (except Mares for some reason), some of them looking better than others.

Traits are displayed in the big text field, one line per trait in save order. If we want to modify this Nephelym, we need to click "Modify". After that, we can edit anything but the name of the Nephelym. Before we can actually write to the save file, we need to press "Verify". This transforms any understandable keywords into the respective strings that the game recognizes (e.g. hominal is converted to Trait.Form.Hominal) and performs checks so that no erroneus information is written into the save. In my case, I modified the previous Nephelym with the following data:

3.PNG

After verifying, the data looks like this:

4.PNG

After that, we can click "Apply changes" and it will overwrite the opened save file with the following modifications. By default, the tool will perform backups of save files every 2h (meaning it will perform a backup if it detects that the last backup was done over 2h ago), but you can disable/change the time interval in "File->Options".

Note that while traits are generally pretty safe to modify and tweak, modifying gender and sometimes the race of some Nephelyms might result in crashes due to some incompatiblity of the shape and model data. For example, I have observed that changing Futa to Female and viceversa is generally safe (since they are basically identical other than the penis), but changing to Male just doesn't work. Additionally, changing the MC to a big size can be problematic when performing wild sex, as the game gets stuck in the interaction (but strangely enough it seems okay during breeding sessions?).

Finally, while I tried to make the tool as robust as possible, note that it is something that I coded in a week during my spare time. I suggest you make your own backups before starting to edit in case something unexpected happens in the long run.

So, hmmmm.... I've seen a lot of trouble with the whole Essence and Dormant traits situation so it makes me wonder. Is it worth it change it from version .89 to .95? I love the idea of having Vagrant Pregnancies, besides the MANY drawbacks the UI overhaul (As well as some ingame systems) brought, but while I can deal with those. However I'm wondering if it's even worth playing the newest version cause I'm reading a lot of comments of you guys struggling big time with the new Essence system and.... Im wondering if maybe this is the update in which Ill stuck myself for a while until Derelict fixes his shit XD

I'd recommend version .97 as it seems more stable.

Version .95 worked fine with vagrant pregnancy on, but it began to crash with multiple errors as soon as I set general pregnancy to "off" (to get offsprings instantly).
When I tried the same with v.0.97, there were no crashes.

Anyways, the game at this stage finally works as a real sandbox. Moreover, if you feel lazy enough, you can have it running in an "automated mode" (with vagrants randomly impregnating each other), while you enjoy watching the outcome. :cool:

Ah yes, please disregard the fact that the orc was asking for a futa with non-dormant fertile trait. And the "bugfix" didn't solve the problem if you already had accepted the quest. You can say a lot of good things about this game, but please do not fanboy over it, it doesn't do anyone a favor.
I will cause I didn't talk to the orc or get that quest lmfao. Sayin I didn't encounter and major bugs ain't fanboyin shit, just sayin I didn't encounter any which is more I could say with alotta fully released games.

But I mean.... 0.89 or 0.97 then? 0.89 still had the World Level but after the overhaul to the Essence.... Im not sure if taking yet again another version leap

Are there any actual new content like animations, new nephs, new npcs or is it the same old rehashed stuff from several years ago ?
Depends on how far back it was you played last but it's still mostly the same game it was years ago but with more filler e.g essence, unlocking poses, unlocking gates, unlocking portals. Off the top of my head, over the last few years, the most notable things he's added are more sizes supported for sex animations, a "better" ui and color blending for offspring. The rest of the time he's just been all over the place but it really slowed down when he claimed to have been exposed to mold and having mental issues.

Since then (December 3rd 2021) it's been absolutely miserable, from that point onward the most notable changes have been: vagrants (assigned roamers for your farm), vibrating dildo support(look up lovense), sex poses requiring unlocking, aforementioned UI update, stat overhaul, trait overhaul, and world levels changed to essence. No new animations, no new breeds, no crafting system, no clothing system, no threesome animation support, no purpose for stats or stat ranks. Just to get a somewhat functioning UI we had to wait 3 months and while the sorting function was a big improvement everything else was made worse and more time consuming, some people even said it was a rip off from genshin impact but I don't play skinnerbox mobile trash so I dunno how accurate that statement is.

To put it short: It's the same old rehashed stuff from several years ago.

I'd also like to point out that .95 still had (I believe?) the game breaking quest bug of the orch demanding a futa with fertile trait, so definitely better to go for the .97 as you mentioned.

I feel like one of the noobs asking this, but breeding to the nephelims with the same trait has a chance of bumping it up to a tier 2 right?

I'm uploading an updated version of my save editor. I didn't specify versioning before, so let's say the first upload was version 0.10a and this one is version 0.10b :)

Changelog:

- Added the option to change the main playable character.

Comments:

That's right, the game actually allows you to play as any character/Nephelym you have on the rooster. The character is hardcoded to be of normal/medium size when roaming around, though. Also, you might run into issues if you play as a non-medium sized character and interact using wild sex. So it's recommended to keep the Nephelym as medium sized while you're using it as main character.

This feature is really not that useful, but I was playing around with it so I thought it could prove entertaining to someone other than me.
