RPGM Caliross, the Shapeshifter's Legacy [v0.9.29] [mdqp]

[mdqp]

There's a scene in the gallery featuring Erica, the Golden Leaf maid and Eliza at the Zanti farm together. How do you get it? The maid and Eliza have both been corrupted by the Zanti and I've seen their individual scenes at the farm but not all three at once. It's not an 'ending' scene either unless I missed something.

It's actually an ending scene. If you got Keiko and Eliza on the cow path it should trigger this slide. I can't remember if it was there since the first update I added the endings with, though, so it's possible it wasn't there when you finished the game. If you have a save where the ending has already been triggered, you can try triggering it again in the "Travel sphere" (interact with the NPC south of the ship in the landing room) and it should give you the option to rewatch the ending (I wouldn't save after, just to avoid any oddities).

I see a couple comments about The CG List, i wanted to ask a question about it as well (sorry if this specifically was already answered)

Are there plans for the CG scene collection to not be tied to a specific save file? So if I, for example, do the Zanti family chain of quests on File A, and then go and do the Vampire chain of quests on File B, I wouldn't have to switch between save files to see the CGs of the other content that I already completed.

Currently, I have no plans for that, but never say never. It's a bit awkward to do in VX Ace, however.

Two updates in a row with Zanti content, hell yeah! I have to ask, though, will there be an event in the future for 'inviting' Ariel to the Family?

I thought a lot about it, and I think she might get a tangentially related scene at most, since I am trying to close things out and I don't want to get started on complicated interactions at this point.

Ouch.

That's why there is an HTML conversion. XD XD XD

Where do I find the stylist couple for the fashion job? At least one of them told me but I got distracted with other jobs and quests and completely forgot.

If you know where the magic academy is, the shop is on the other side of the road. They are both in the noble district, near its entrance.

You know what? If this was brought up before, I must have forgotten about it. I don't see any problems with letting players pick their starting size for breasts and butt, though (excluding those who pick Santhora's blessing, of course), so I'll add it to the intro, no problem. Maybe I'll just exclude the higher sizes so that Ursula at the bazaar is still relevant. I should also add some activities that increase the butt size naturally, perhaps some exercise with Carla.

i am glad to contripute even if it only a litle.
and i mean if it already in game (but only via cheating) i think it a good idea , personaly i like to start with smaller breast and make it become bigger with time , but i am sure other preffed smaller,

for Santhora it make the girl look atractif , i do not think it NEED to be link to a size ( unless you have a story lore reason or gameplay limitation )
I think it could be fun to have a rework of the creation character but only it not too hard and not too game breaking

also i think all game need to have a final version ( even if you do add on later or post final patch) so i am glad that this one is also closse to finishing
and after you coulde use you learn experience to star a new game with better base ( unless you do not want of course )
personaly i have wait for this game to finish for year but next free day i will try and complete it


thank for you reply and good work

For now I have set the initial ranges to go "A-D" and "flat-bubbly" (only if you don't have Santhora's blessing, which doesn't get a choice at all and gets DD+bubbly, instead). I don't know if I might tweak it later (the butt sizes are more limited in number, so I might have to restrict the choices further). Next month the change should go live on Patreon, and the month after it will go public, as usual.

Reworking the character creation further might be unlikely, since any new mechanics would need to be added to the game from the ground up. Maybe if people want more choices for the backgrounds I could add some, but I feel like we have an acceptable range of starting stats already. Maybe it would have been cool to have some extra reactions in your home town based on the background choice, but again, it would probably be a little too much work at this point.

Santhora is also the Goddess of Fertility, which is why you get the "hourglass body" trait with her blessing, so there is a lore reason, actually.

I am already working on my next game, little by little. It's hard to make good progress with an active project already running, though.

Have fun with the game! ^_^

I'd take it. Hell, even an implication of one of the maids or our vice captain hauling her off for training, like a couple dialogue lines with Ariel's Avatar all glassy eyed and name changed to Cow#whatevernumber would be hot as hell. To me at least. I always went cow route not even for scenes themselves, but just to see how Zantis expand their influence everywhere under everyone's notice, turning all influential women into their happy little obedient pawns.

What I have in mind is more something along the lines of Dani manipulating both you and Ariel. Ariel wouldn't be hypnotized, but she would be "coached" into triggering your cow instincts and Dani's own triggers she implanted in you. So it would be cowgirl-themed, but Ariel wouldn't be getting "cowfied".

I do plan to have a girl ending up in jail and Dani working her magic on her, though.

Merchant Slave (Master Han) Route is currently completely bricked. 45 minutes on my save file between being captured and when I gave up, same 3 routines, same night text

I checked with Time Control, says are also not advancing upon rest (not sure if that's how it's supposed to be), HP/mana not restoring either.. Other things worth noting: I basically started the game and the immediately went into this route, so if there's other later quests it's checking for, I haven't started them.
Stats are also not updating (if they're supposed to be changes to int/will/inh they're not updating)

There was patch notes from 17 days ago saying that "added a QoL thing to being a slave for Master Han, automatically starting tasks when you are too obedient to resist them anymore."... which is probably what broke it.

After accepting a job as a dancer at the Red Dune club in Rahib and dancing there for a while, I'm wondering if this is going to go anywhere. The dance mini-game is fun, but will there be more events at some point?
Current game: Version 0.9.25, Chapter 2

does anybody have a save after you become a Noble?

I'm about to start "noble Goals" quest if you're interested (just a few steps before).
My traits are: "Titty Lover", "Exhibitionist", "Masochist", and slut reputation 125 (you can decrease it by asking the dragon "Baal" if needed)

The routine is random, so you could get the same 3 in a row easily (RPG Maker RNG is a bit lousy). You should get an event on day 5 or 6, which should let you know if the path is progressing properly (a cutscene with a guest). Could you maybe send me the save file?

The game doesn't activate regular sleep mechanics on this path to avoid issues (and to make it easier to rollback at the end), but I can easily add some stripped-down time mechanics and healing, that much is fine. You are supposed to get -20 to your stats when you lose in the gambling den, are you saying that didn't happen?

Are you playing the patreon version? That's the one with the updates to the tasks being automated.

Heh... Well, I'm already past this point and our dear and slutyfull Erica is countess of Golden leaf now. Come to think of it, it's what you wanted, right? I think this one is just at the beginning of Ch 3 and after "the lidless eye" quest. A warning though, since I'm team up with Beatrix the vampire (and the werewolves as well)

 

[♂Brout&Minou♀]

Here another weird increase of stats. I tried to reproduce the phenomenon by resuming the previous save, then I took the exact same path and actions but to no avail. I spoke to the temple priest (East Tarkas, where you can have cursed artifacts removed ), next "getting hot" with an actor from the theater (with the hypnotist pendant), and finally to the cheerleading practice, kissed Gabriel, but... Nope!

As you can see from the pic below, my INH stat got increased from 0 to 10 and I really don't know when this happened

Do you have the "weird pendant" on? It gives a -10 to INH, and takes it back when you remove it (and since you can't go below 0, it naively "restores" 10 INH if you were already at zero before putting it on).

Yes, and I did indeed replace the weird pendant with another artifact when the priest said it could be dangerous. But when I put it back on and take it off again (I'm at 0 INH) nothing happens. "Weird" is the right word, I think.
Otherwise, I was wondering if you're still interested in my updates on my previous post about my playthrough findings. I know for a fact that trying to replicate a bug or whatever went wrong is sometimes a bit boring and frustrating, having encountered these kinds of issues myself in other areas of programming. I thought sharing my experience could help you, but if not, I have other things to do to relax in this heat. So, just tell me, 'kay?

So it didn't trigger the second time you removed the pendant? I'll have to check this out. Send me a savefile for this one, if you can.

I am definitely interested in bug reports (by the way, I can't remember if I mentioned this, but I fixed the softlock you found when trying to leave Ginnuk's cave). Make sure to check my replies if I quote you, because I might need more info sometimes.

Make a new post when you find a new issue (or make a big post if you find multiple ones) and I'll get to it as soon as can. Also about this (I think I missed this post):

If you do a perfect dance enough times (the number increases by 1 each time you have a poor performance, so it could take a while if you were careless) you get noticed by the dancers there, and you get some content with them. More content with them also unlocks if you buy a house in Rahib, and have progressed far enough with your lessons with them.

Well, I don't know if you did it on purpose, but it seems like some scenes are missing footage. For instance, when she's working as a secretary in Tarkas's Imperial office. It's described (narrated) as a meeting with her colleagues, where she masturbates to encourage them to work hard. There may be others, but it's hard to say without carefully examining the extracted files I have.

****Well, I have to admit I was a little lazy on this minigame, so I'll have to try harder I guess.

 

[♂Brout&Minou♀]

Here's another one? Or am I missing something?
Another cheerleading practice, another kiss with Gabriel, then he asks Erica out on a date after the game. She obviously says yes, but... Where is Gabriel? I searched the whole academy, waited (worked) until the afternoon? If it's at night, well... It's a full moon and Erica's a werewolf, so I'm kinda screwed.

Edit: I think I was right. The whole werewolf/Full moon thing must interfering with some events, somehow.
