It fails to find some image. Is that the one announced in changelogs that got chainged to include a train?


- - -


also found a slight error / mishappening in the emilia - fairy living room scene

(used universal renpy mod to make the variables and paths visible)



When Shani is not in the zone, so is home (lower path, that i am currently on there): she does not show up in the background
When Shani is in the zone, so definitely not at home (upper path that i am not on): she does show in the background

exactly opposite than it should be, guess the images or some code got confused and the result is now that the backgrounds are exactly switched reverse

You dont need to defend or explain yourself.
Fuck the haters and say like it is!

Well, I just don't want people to get the wrong idea, especially any of the authors. So many people on this site just rudely express their negative criticisms in a drive-by, and I think that can get exhausting and frustrating for an author who works so hard on their game.

The sex scenes never had stellar writing imo, with the shock factor fading it may be more obvious

True, but I don't think that shock factor is just a function of time, rather, the partner selection has become more stagnant.

Yeah, maybe those things explain it; the "new car" factor is just slowly fading for me and I become more aware of some flaws. Hmm. At least they're fairly minor ones that can be pretty easily remedied.

Not bad update i guess.
Maybe because i had to replay whole game.
I'd say as of now theres a 25-50% chance of Shani having to do anything with decayed boss.

I feel the opposite, I am constantly wanting more of the girls we have. Villa harem time is *chef's kiss* and the raider girls are a highly addictive drug. Never can get enough of those two sisters. We also get a regular dose of new (or temporary) side girls that saunter on to the scene to get MC's rocks off. Added to all of the hot women are a great story and perfect AVN setting and I don't see myself ever getting bored with Desert Stalker.

I agree with this. I would add that especially with Shani we have barely scratched the surface so far. And that is also true for quite a few of the other girls, like the queen, the raider sisters, the mutants etc.

Oh I don't disagree with either of you- the immediate family are some of my favorites - when I wrote my message on stagnancy, in my head it was implied this was referring to the less interesting/attractive characters or overall lack of sex scenes (because of course I'm the grand arbitor of whether a character is interesting or hot ). I love the family and want more home harem scenes with them. At the same time, I'd also love to see more igor foursome style scenes, I like both these avenues.

obviously all of this is subjective - but I'm hypothesizing that many people feel similar to me and thus are lukewarm towards update.

One of the first things that drew me to this game was it actually felt like a PORN GAME when you start off, there's sex everywhere, with neighbors, family, guards; and that feeling has tapered off.

What I dont like as much is a large amount of time spent on raider girls or hive or the various palace guards etc

MC stick his dick into cum dump of decayed called Fairy. Not only her but other 10+ girls with STDs not being existant in this game other than the settlement lady if she even has it. Now that is

Probably the best adult visual novel, there's a reason I've waited so long for worthwhile content to appear. Minus only that there are too many women to be served by the MC and therefore a long wait for updates with those you like. And the story is too much for a porn game, towards the end I got tired of reading it all and started just skipping it. Some scenes were very sensual and well written, mother-daughters incest, where else would you see such a thing. Some fetishes were just what I love.

This game is definitely a mix between porn and story.

I think it's one of the very few games on this site which could stand on it's own without any porn.

But being story heavy and having a quite a lot of characters does create this problem:

when I wrote my message on stagnancy, in my head it was implied this was referring to the less interesting/attractive characters or overall lack of sex scenes (because of course I'm the grand arbitor of whether a character is interesting or hot )

It may seem to you that the various scenes used for less interesting character A could also have been used for more scenes with more interesting character B.

I'm not sure if I agree but I can see where you are coming from, if you approach this from a porn game perspective.

However, I think the redeeming aspect is that these characters will have to play their role in the story. This overarching story is what makes this game different from the vast majority of games, most of which have a story line which is very predictable and frankly boring.

I just finished 0.14 and Shani, Fairy and Katerina were greyed out in the living room the whole time. Did I play it wrong or are the greyed out options just signalling future content?

That's future content. Shani and Fairy currently have repeatable content through Ain and Emilia, respectively. They do not currently have standalone harem content. Kateryna's current content is purely story-related, with no harem content, either standalone or via another character, currently implemented.

Hi guys, I had the same crash that some of you shared, involving a wrong filename for 2 images and 1 audio file. So decided to fix it for myself. This isn't a complete fix, as the audio file that is supposed to be playing is completely missing, but I replaced it with a different one that would go mostly unnoticed and is already included in the game.

You just have to decompress the zip, and drop (and replace) the files in "DesertStalker-0.14c-pc\game\scripts"

You must be registered to see the links

Edit: If it keeps crashing, you might need to delete the corresponding ".rpyc" files after replacing the ".rpy" ones

It's still there, you need to leave the settlement then return.

weird did not need to do that in version 13. then again i had the same issue with there being no choice for me at the zone and the scout.

Edit: Attaching .rpy files was a bad idea.

Try deleting the corresponding ".rpyc" (not .rpy) files. I tested it and it looked like they got auto updated once I replaced the .rpy files and reopened the game, but I could be wrong.

Best game ever
