neverland.mp3 is missing from DesertStalker-0.09a-pc not sure on desert-stalker-v0-09b if it's missing from that one or not as I never downloaded that one as I never hit any errors with the one that I was using.
I'm playing the v0-09b-pc version

Yup! It's been pretty consistent and the quality is great.
Agreed. DS devs are one of those few devs who have been very consistent regarding their releases (even when a dev creates a great game, more often than not, this consistency factor is what may drag them down at times), which I always appreciate.

Great quality of the game is already given, with the whole in-depth characterization and the world-building it has with Cynicaladm's writing & ZetanDS's renders.

It would indeed fit in the social environment.. as a form of submission/humiliation/establishing pecking order.
I am personally not particularly interested in seeing it but wouldn't be opposed to it being scripted/insterted in the game.
That said, I have a feeling ZetanDS would also not be interested in seeing it... and since he'd be the one making the art and having to stare at it for hours, I feel like that's something he would not be ready to do if I ever asked him to.

but again, I am not particularly motivated into asking him on account of not swinging that way and preferring to write about things I know how to relate to, how to portray them, and kinks/sexual practices I am more familiar with.
So I don't think we'll ever see that happen.
Maybe have some situation where the protagonist is presented with the opportunity, but turns it down without the player having any input. Have him say something like "sorry, I understand the value of sodomizing our defeated foes to reinforce our dominance, but I've just never been able to get it up for men." Serves the desired worldbuilding function without compromising your vision of the character or requiring you to spend time depicting a kink you aren't into. Alternately, if you decided you did want to put it in the game, I guess you could hire a ghostwriter for that scene so it feels authentic.

I don't think the result is going to be worth the effort. An off hand mention of something happening off screen doesn't really add much to a scene, and Z is not going to hire someone to do renders for him to add something the game can do without. The budget for such a thing simply isn't there yet, and we're not short on kinks and sexual proclivities we want to add and explore without adding stuff purely to check a box and entice a specific player demographic, much like we're not going to add a scat scene purely to entice the scat fetishists into patronising the game (no parallel between lgbt and scat intented, I'm just making a point about kinks and sexual content)... Unless Z decides that he really wants to add either type of content, it's just not going to happen.
We do mention in the lore that there are gay and lesbian couples and they aren't discriminated against. We will mention this again and possibly show it from a social interaction point of view. How much of what they get up to in the bedroom we will explore on screen, is up to Z to determine.

The most that I can see happen at the moment, is that a character mentions having had male on male sex and this being a motivation for that character to take or not take an action.
Whether that would add anything to the game lore or depth wise is an open question and right now I would have to shoehorn that in a scene, because we just don't have a character or plotline that requires or justifies it...
And as I said, I'm not in favour of adding content purely to satisfy a target demographic. This, for me at least, remains a hobby.
Z might decide otherwise, and it would be a purely commercial decision, as is in his right, but when that happens, we'll see it on the screen, until then, suggestions for the sake of debate such as this are always welcome but they are most likely not going to alter the already existing trajectory of where the game is going, plot and content-wise.

Finished the new version, as always excellent in terms of rendering but I have not seen any lascivious scene which annoys me knowing that it is a porn game. I have also seen that many reported some kind of problem in the game, I have not noticed any.

Dev update 01.05.2022

Hey everyone, looking at the second part of the hive mission, I should be able to finish it up next week. Other than that, there might be an official spanish translation coming in the next weeks for 0.09c. Fingers crossed.

Progress:
Hive scene pt.2: 70%
Shani's zone entry: 0%
Raiders mission: 0%
(More to follow...)

Still no news about the update patch from 0.08 to 0.09?
We stopped providing an update-only patch because -with the way the game is currently structured- it was very prone to errors and introduced a lot of overhead and confusion.
We now instead have a compressed version for people with limited bandwidth and/or speed.

Maybe someone in the community will make an update-only patch, but "official" ones will be stopped going forward.

Hi, is anyone else getting checkered boxes very frequently? Its almost after every time there is a change in render. Between renders there is a checkered screen that happens.

Sometimes with monitors with a resolution too different form the imagines ratio you get checkered borders where the imagine can't span. Unless you are playing windowed.

That's actually not bad at all. I assumed it was a project on a rather slow release pace, but this it a very decent schedule.
you do release this game really hasn't put anything new since april? those last updates was cut content and reworks. its actually fair to say since first or 2nd update we finally got something new and it took 5 months
