It's been a while. More than a while. But we're finally here with the next UE5 update. Those of you who kept an eye on the Patron-exclusive #BehindTheScenes channel over on our Discord may recognise a few details.

Because it's gone 5:30am this will be a somewhat shortened post, with full patch notes to follow when we've had a good sleep.

In addition to the large dungeon for If It Bleeds, the Shipwrecked Anubites have received some TLC and it's now possible to save them - if you play your cards right. They're not the only Anubites who are given hope by this update however, and the adepts now have a much more established encampment from which to spread their message of lust.

To this end we have brought multiple DSS scenes over from the UE4 build, along with a boatload of the more basic sex animations to help flavour the environment. The Anubite encampment should finally feel a lot more like the stronghold of a lust-cult!

It's not all happy news in Saby, and there are some tragic new stories to explore in the fallen land of Heifer's Reach. These particular quests are only accessible before completing Behold (i.e. on a new game) because they're in the starting area, but should give existing players a lot more content to discover in the starting zone, setting the scene and fleshing out the world. Your actions in Heifer's Reach will have consequences in future, so choose wisely.

There are over a dozen new POI (point of interest) encounters to explore, and you'll now be able to do so as a Male Demi-Jackal and Male Demi-Draconid. Girls get a new option as well, in the form of the Temple-Bred Jackal Subtype.

There are hundreds of new art assets, large and small. From the entirely new tomb kit, to the statue of the Bovine fertility demigoddess Hatha, bringing more fidelity to the world than ever before.

In this latest push we've included a first taste of caves. Whilst we have made many more than we've released, we want to be certain there are no technical issues before we fully set you loose on them.

The next post will detail the December update and our next steps for DSS 2.0.

Right, it's late and I need a sleep. We'll post a FULL list of what we've added tomorrow (today?) or possibly over the weekend. For now just sink your teeth in and face down the Kravenrook... perhaps bedding a few Anubites along the way.

Team Carnal Instinct

As usual, this is a reminder that Patreon and SubscribeStar builds of Carnal Instinct have protections on them which require exposing a subscriber account's information in order to pass the title screen. Without finding a way to bypass the protections or sharing this information (and thus getting the account banned from Carnal Instinct's pages), all that sharing this build will do is waste people's time and bury this thread in people asking why they can't get past the title screen.

Do any scenes have a free cam or animation selecting?
no. dss gives you a few angles and kinda move the camera position a bit with it but we wont be getting a free cam until they drop dss 2.0
seems like they weren't able to complete it in this update so high chance they'll either add up in a later update or it'll be added in their next big update.

Do people generally prefer the DSS scenes? Maybe a hot take, but I kinda wish they'd focus more on creating the unique scenes between all the different characters. I suppose it just means less to me to have a system dedicated to all the random meaningless NPCs, since when you see one you've essentially seen them all. Not that it's a bad feature to have though I guess, but I feel like I'd always prefer the unique scenes over them.

If it's the appeal of the eventual free cam I get it, but I don't see why they couldn't do the same with non DSS scenes barring it just being more work?

DSS is just the sex scene framework they built. Scenes can still be bespoke for specific NPCs and use the framework and UI for DSS.

Ah that makes way more sense, didn't consider it like that. Is there plans then to eventually port over the non DSS scenes into that system? A bit out of the loop with the game right now
Yes but a lot of that stuff will take some time to be ported over, most of unreal 4 is deemed mid game content, so until they finish with the start of the game we won’t see a lot of that

where to get a steam key from
You can get a steam key from their patreon starting with the "Ascended Anubite" tier but it's pretty pricey, for me it's like 2x as much as on Steam but Patreon obviously has some additional benefits. But if that's too much for you and the game isn't sold in your country then I'd wait till the new version is cracked if I were you. So much for supporting the indie game devs but I don't think there's anything You can do unless you'd want to use their own Launcher from Patreon, but I have no idea how it works.

so guys there's a UE 4 and 5 beta which one should i try play first?
I'd argue for just playing UE5 since the UE4 content is planned to be ported over at some point anyway. Would make it feel fresher for you when that happens if you don't play it now. But if you don't care about that then there is indeed more content in UE4 build right now. Kinda cool to see how the game changes between versions imo.

Since you don't live in a country where you can buy a steam key on steam, you need to live in a country where you can buy a steam key on steam.

Perhaps you should be more specific. You know, when a devil tempts you with fulfilling your wishes, better be specific otherwise you'll regret your wish coming true.
