VN Ren'Py By Justice or Mercy [v19] [TowerBoyGames]

[Black Orchid]

Same here.

That's weird, I'm indeed using vortex's intro.rpy, but in this last update, there were I think two or three moments in which they referred to him as Landlord. The name that appears when he speaks is "Dad" but, for instance, when Mom asks if you've gone to see him, she asks if you've seen your Landlord yet. I didn't rollback, everything was already set as I intended (I checked the Relationship menu previously), but Landlord still appeared during dialogue.

i just checked and after setting the relationship with the patch and they always work.


the only thing that is wrong is the "little brother" alex says but that is because of a lack of space in the script but the variable is also set correctly. if you add a space at the end to the yy.name ("Little ") variable it makes it show normal

you can also do that to the bb.name variable

Use my relationship changer mod. It's basically also the old intro.rpy file but rather overriding than overwriting it.
The nickname changer for (Little) Bro should also work.

Can confirm that this mod indeed worked in fixing people referring to Edmund as Landlord instead of Dad or Father. I had to tweak with URM for the nicknames and to get rid of the whole Little/Big Brother/Sister stuff, but now everything's in order. Thanks everyone!

"Little" bro, "big" Sister, etc are nicknames that were added by the dev. They are nicknames, so the relationship manager doesn't change those. Only brother, sister, mom, dad, etc. So if you are seeing little bro, big sis, etc, the mod is working. MC is Alex's little bro, Alex is his big sis.

Yeah, it's just that, by default, they showed as "LittleBrother", "BigBrother", etc, with quotations and no space, which was kind of annoying to look at.

Everything works, thank you

 

[Overlord070]

I used the old relationship changer that was previously in the op and it still worked, what I had to do was reset the family status and then reapply it.

 

[Vortex@]

new version now puts a space after the devs bb and yy usage. So it will be big brother, etc, and not as one word




No issues here either

Yep, it's awkward with those little/big nickname prefix usages attached to each other by the author, but I solved this by a text replacement function that either separates these or leaves them together if the prefix is empty like default since v18. You can also redefine them by my mod now but these aren't persistent thus have to be redefined on new game starts and most likely not work during gallery replays.


I've also updated the definition texts, so it should be easier to understand how to define each relationship without changing the default variables.
Nora's "mother" and other "relatives" and Lin's "sister" hardly made an appearance in the free game releases yet, so maybe I have to rephrase something later.
It's a pity that the author has ruined some character definitions, like the MC's, by using the names also for the character speaker tags what ruins the colors the moment you input the character names turning character objects into string objects. Turning these back to character objects can cause crashes by manipulating the name strings when using e.g. shorten the full name to first letter what the author sometimes uses: $ mcshort = mc[:1]

Check out my updated mod here.
Link is also in the OP now. Well, I didn't explicitly ask to replace the other mod's link, but looks like the moderator removed it. Sorry.
This is one of my favorite stories, so I'm going to update my mod as soon as I have time and notice some new or changed relationship issues in the free releases. You don't need to use the changers that often anyway.

Hello again!

This week, v19 had its public release (check it out

You must be registered to see the links

). Work has also continued on v20, with the render count now sitting at around 350.

I’d like to do quite a few animations for v20, though whether that’ll be possible remains to be seen. Other than that, there are no major changes to the current plans this week. I am leaning more toward giving Chloe a all routes scene, and then doing another Sophia scene before the ball in another update.

Apologies for the shorter devlog this time, but thanks for checking in, and I’ll see you again next week!

To wrap things up, here’s a render capturing a cold morning in New York.

No alts this week, but consider joining the

Hopefully the last update of my BJMRelationshipChanger.

Update #2
- added missing company's name change
- forces inputs, except nickname prefixes, and strips automatically leading/trailing spaces/tabs/newlines from input to avoid issues

The nickname prefixes are automatically separated if necessary, so no need to add a trailing space. You can still change Alex's nickname for the MC to two or more words separated by spaces while leaving the prefixes empty.

i Really hope Lily ends up having a choose her gender path like Chloe. i like the idea a small girl like her being into Judo.

Another worthy update of my BJMRelationshipChanger.

Update #3
- optimized code
- relationships and nicknames can be easily reset to original and family terms

If you are too lazy or confused to set every single relationship and nickname, you can reset to "family" term in the relations menu under MC and relationship changer. Original and family terms resets offer all terms with proper capitalization as they have been typically used so far.
Only the MC's first and last name next to the company name aren't reset, but resetting to Patreon-Puritan "original" terms will reset Edmond's and Nora's last name to default "Kennedy". This last name will be reset to the MC's last name again if switched back to "family".
The ashleySpecial switch for "twin" will also be turned on/off on family/original terms reset.
The "little" or "lil" and "big" nickname adjectives are defined on session start, but empty and unused by default/original style as long as they haven't be changed before. Reset to "family" will add these nickname adjectives, but everything can still be individually edited as before.

OMG... I only now found out the lady you can get to fuck that is yelling at the barista at the beginning... is called Karen lmao! What a fitting name xD

I just downloaded the game, and the whole relationship setter is the most complicated and overloaded thing ever. No front to the guy providing it, but to the game who apparently decided to add the incest fetish but apparently did not want to do it after all.

Just don't do incest as base when you patch it out, anyway. I get it. Monetizing is hard when you provide it, but then just do fucking step-xy or let the MC be adopted and be done with it. Let people add the spice with their patches themselves if needed. This landlady/roommate bullshit is just annoying at this point and more often than not you have to decide between inconsistencies at some point or some dumb nonsensical conversations if you do NOT patch it back to incest (I don't really care about the fetish, so I only really apply those patches when there is no other way to get the landlady out).

Also, at least add royalty-free lounge music to your game please... I can hear myself think, and I don't like it one bit

Sorry, just had to vent.

Just played the game for the first time yesterday and I had a blast though my experience is quite mixed and not super smooth sailing.

I like the Nakamuras in general but I'm surprised by how much content they have while they aren't really that important plot-wise. Emma is the girlfriend, sure, but the rest are basically just "the girlfriend's family" though of course they have been part of MC's life in the past too. I don't hate it, but thought it's a bit weird to see that much content for them. I like Naomi more than Emma. Hana is ok, and I skipped Lin.

I really like the family. Mom is supportive and I look forward to how she'd end up with MC. Alex is great that she's happy to just go tits out from the get go. Sophia is cute and likeable, I also appreciate that her reaction to seeing MC with Alex is that she wants to be with MC too (no time wasting on dragging it out with being confused/angry/etc). I also like Ashley because the redemption path is already very clear that she still cares about MC (kept his belongings, kept their photos together, slept in MC's room, didn't immediately push away from his hug), it's just a matter of sorting out her relationship with Jessica.

Supporting characters are also generally interesting. I get to say no to the ones I'm not interested in and they're out. Chloe is likeable bitchy tsundere who does her best for MC. I like Mia enough and I wonder what'd happen with her.

Rob is a bro for sure. Nice to have a bro character that is just straight up a bro.

I look forward to the Smith girls in the future.

Probably never going to happen, but dare I wish for Saddie content somehow?
