How much content have they added since the 0.5.something update? Have they back ported most of quests from old ue4 versions?

THe download links seem to be broken. All of them end up in dead-ends or error pages.
For UE5, the Buzzheavier link appears to be suffering from an internal server error while the Vikingfile link appears to have been removed. However, the Datanodes, Mixdrop, and Terminal links are all still hosting and delivering files.

For UE4, the Mixdrop, Terminal, and Uploadhaven links all appear to be functional while the WDHO link appears to be malfunctioning and/or for the wrong thing.

Game is running on my cpu despite both windows and nvidia specificaly telling it to use the goddman gpu, unplayable sadly
Nvidia Control Panel does not have priority over what Windows tells the application to use. Windows always has the "final say". To fix this, go to your "Graphics Settings" (open Start menu, search for "Graphics Settings", it'll be in your Windows Settings page), click "Add desktop app", on the File Explorer window that appears you'll need to navigate to the directory where you have the Carnal Instinct main file. Then, follow this tree:

(Carnal Instinct Root) > Carnal_Instinct_UE5 > Binaries > Win64 and add specifically the file titled "Carnal_Instinct_UE5-Win64-Shipping.exe".

Once you've done this, you'll see "Carnal Instinct" appear in the list back on your Settings page. You can then click the drop-down arrow to expand the management menu and under "GPU preference", select the GPU you prefer to use.

IDK when last the wiki was updated but the talk of different scenes made me check it since I havent played since the UE4 version years ago but its so hard to follow what scenes there are because the wiki goes back and forth between describing the player as giver or receiver as being consistent to who is actually receiving or giving

Is the UE5 version still missing the dragon? And if so does the UE4 have the centaurs? Just curious how much I'd miss with UE4.

How much content have they added since the 0.5.something update? Have they back ported most of quests from old ue4 versions?
There's a decent amount of content in game overall as of right now. You'll need about 6-7 hours irl to complete everything the game offers (without making alternative choices or grinding the points to unlock everything).
Afaik until now they've concentrated on the game's basis and foundations, including story which starts away from Wased-Heq's port (where you start in UE4) (I might be wrong on the area name here, I'm bad with Egyptian names, but you get what I mean). Port itself is on the UE5's map already, which probably means that the team have transferred the assets but is currently unreachable. So UE4's quests, locations and characters are not yet in playable game version just yet.
Maybe they will be coming in short future (during this year I presume).

Overall I'd say that as of right now game could be considered to be a very strong vertical slice type. Fairly a lot of content for an indie game that shows how much potential game has. Totally worth playing or re-playing if you haven't tried it in a long time imo.

I remember in the UE4 version there was a home base that was underdeveloped. Have they talk about having that come back in the UE5 version?
Island of Tal'Senet seems to be our character's new main base. All side characters and potential lovers will seem to be moving there for our convinience. UE4's camp seemed to be more like a proof of concept or rather developers were trying out mechanics with slight customisations that might or might not be transferred for Tal'Senet.
I wouldn't expect that camp to come back because Tal'Senet seems to be palyer's main base of operations now and will most likely feature UE4's features if developers decide to tinker with them.

I personally hope that it will be just that. I hope that characters like Drake Queen, centaurs and other romancable characters will one way or the other come and join our protagonist there so that player could easily reach them without jumping all across the map in order to see their scenes.

Customisation-wise, I don't expect much tbh.
I'd say that I hope more to see Tal'Senet change as those romancable characters arrive, bringing their own stuff with them, making the island feel alive again, changing its surroudnings to fit their lifestyles too. People living in houses again, market could be restored with a couple of merchants, some cahracters could visit each other to banter about you or something and so on.
This way it would give this hub liveliness and a sense of progression during our adventures.

I actually don't care about the one time sex scenes, i just don't wanna repeat all the missions that i already did. with this new update my previews save doesn't work so if you don't mind to share yours. please
Been seeing a lot of requests for 100% save file, so here's like a 80%-ish/90%-ish save file for those who just don't want to do quests again. This is just my usual playing save file so it doesn't feature 10 billion points for all cosmetics, just whatever races and their variations I find to be attractive.

^ if those are fine for you, go for it.

Reminder how to insert save files so that game works and where save files are located:
Steps to use someone else's save file:
  1. Open the game
  2. Create a new game
  3. Save the game
  4. Copy the save file you want to use into the save folder (%localappdata%/Carnal_Instinct/Saved/SaveGames)
  5. Find the number of the save you created in step 3
  6. Delete the save you created in step 3
  7. Rename the save file you want to use to the number of the save created in step 3.
All this because the game doesn't actually check the folder itself to see available saves, and instead keeps a list of saves stored in a data file.
p.s. look for CarnalInstinctUE5 folder version though.

I hope this helps.
