What exactly is the mod manager? Explain in terms someone who knows nothing about programming can understand.
We will still be able to add mods by copy/pasting files into the game folder, right?

There's a new button on the main menu that takes you to a mod downloader in game. The modders need to access the site to upload their mods, but it's much easier than the spreadsheet.



There's a button to download the mod, install the mod, and delete the old zip folder. You can also easily delete a mod you don't want by clicking a button. You can filter for or to avoid certain tags, by what you have installed, a lot of stuff. Modders can also update the mods and you'll be able to see that in here, making it a lot easier to fix broken mods.

It's pretty useful, but you can still download mods the old fashion way, they just don't show up here. Copying the older mods should work.

So once this is up, new mods will come from there instead of the spreadsheet?

I guess modders who don't want to use the site could upload them to the spreadsheet still, but I would prefer them to move to the new system since they won't expire, get more exposure and are a much more user friendly experience.

Everything is fine, the mod manager stuff is just complicated with a lot of backend work.
I had to create a website with a database for the mod info, connect it to cloud servers to host the mod files. Then the ingame interface to handle it all. Such as downloading, installing, uninstalling, updating, cancelling downloads all of which needed a queue system to keep track of. It also needs to handle all of that for mod packs which has been the biggest headache since it can be a dozen or more mods which could be in several states such as: downloaded(possibly outdated), installed(possibly outdated), downloading, installing etc.

Just so many little edge cases, below is just some of the things I need to go through to make sure the mod packs are working.

I also had to change file hosting mid way through development since the original didn't allow presigned URLS so modders wouldn't be able to upload and update on their own.

I just wanna say all this stuff you're doing with the mods is so damn cool.

This should be extracted to where the game exe is found on Windows/Linux or "CorruptedAcademy.app\Contents\Resources\autorun" on Mac.
For Mac you may need to right click and show package contents to find this.

Where do I get the mods button?

It's not in the game yet, next update it will be. You have to use the mod spreadsheet for right now.

Does anyone else take vids from other games they've already got to pad out some of the girls/mothers in this game?

yup WTM at minimum, but there's plenty of others. I also tend to make edits based on my playthough.

Venus club has some good sets to pull from too

Hypno Mod. Don't know if it's been updated, but works on the older version I use

How do you add the videos? do you just rip them from the mods from Venus Club into the girls folders?

As long as the vids are webm files, and you name the files correctly, you just copy/paste into the girls/mothers vids folders in the mods folder. If it's a base game girl, just make a new folder in the mods folder with their name and add the vids there.

 

[WarblGarbl]

That's all?

Honestly I'd say any of the content mods make the game easier. Nothing that makes things more grindy, at least.

If you want you can also go into the PC and find the settings to make stats grow faster, that should help with the grind.

Main problem this game mostly about grind without any interesting gameplay functions and content.

So 0.5 has been officially released to supporters, that starts the 1 week wait for public release. I will also need to start populating the mod manager with more mods for public release.

Main problem this game mostly about grind without any interesting gameplay functions and content.

If you have ideas let me know. I do want to rework the corruption so the girls aren't all the same and so stats are more meaningful. That also means rewriting a lot of the systems around them, I am probably going to start with the report and PTA system to give consequences to your actions. I will them move on to other aspects like interactions at school, home and other locations in that order.

After the report system I can finally finish the sponsor request stuff I have been working on for a while now since it has features it needs.
