What is stopping you exactly?

In the quest log, in front of Julie's name it says "You cannot interact with this character anymore"

You picked a decision to upset or close her questline , that's all.

Nope, something is definitely wrong with your game, I've tried different choices/routes and here is the problem:

When doing the Bituka questline up to her photoshoot, you have to pickup a bag at her house and there you meet Julie. If you reject her her questline is closed, which is ok. But if you fuck her her questline is closed too, which is not ok, and Bikuta’s questline is closed too, which is understandable as you missed her photoshoot.

So I thought I did something wrong and did another playthrough by completing ALL of Julie’s quests first. Ok, good, now I can concentrate on Bikuta’s questline seeing that it’s still not closed. So here we are at the photoshoot quest again, you meet Julie and if you fuck her, exactly the same happens, both questlines are closed.

So what I’m saying here is that both Bituka’s and Julie’s questlines are opened till Bituka’s photoshoot, then 2 scenarios happen:
1 – you reject Julie, her quesline is closed but you can continue Bikuta’s questline.
2 – you fuck Julie, both her and Bikuta’s questlines are closed.

What do you mean it's not okay? You reject her advances when she's offering you for sex , obviously her questline would be closed then?

Two you're doing bituka's questline so not sure what you mean , if you're on julie's questline it won't close until you refuse her at night club.


So yeah nothing is wrong with the game or its function or its code , that's how its intended.

Bituka isn't pure corruption , converts into romance later much like Jane , Rachel and etc

Julie is pure corruption hence she either wants sex or none.

Besides the very sex scene you're talking about can happen in julie's questline down the playthrough as well so you're not missing out on her content if you fuck her in bitukas.

You didn't read what I wrote apparently, so here it is again:
"But if you fuck her her questline is closed too, which is not ok"
That's what I mean, wether you accept or reject Julie her questline is closed
You should try yourself: play Julie's questline from start to finish. Then play Bituka's questline from start to finish and you'll see what happens.
Or if you want I can send you my save and you'll see that before Bituka's photoshoot both questlines are opened, then both are closed if I accept Julie's advances.

I did read what you mean , however each questline is tied to their respective girls.

Very few instances occur where multi layered quests exist as, because if that were true there would be two set of scenes where if you've already done julie she'd ask different thing but if not then the normal.

That is currently not doable , budget constraints.

Lastly I know what you mean , but as i said Intended to not cause further fluctuations in game's saves.

I'd be more than happy to create multi layered system for every girl but that needs serious $$.

I understand what you mean about multi layered quests but then why did you include Julie's sex scene in the middle of Bituka's questline? Accepting Julie's offer closes both Julie and Bituka's questlines, it should only close Bituka's questline, not both.
Let me show you with pictures, it's easier:

BEFORE:



MC goes to the the Gas Station to meet Bituka, she asks him to pickup a bag at her house. MC goes to her house but Julie is there and offers him sex:


AFTER:



Now please tell me why Julie's questline is now closed even though I accepted her offer to have sex with her? She should be happy right?
Do you now see the bug I'm talking about since yesterday?
In my opinion you should remove this whole scene, it would solve the problem entirely.

Because if you had sex with her and you were then with a earlier questline on Julie where then she says " are you finally gonna give it to me""

Get my point? doesn't make sense to have that if he's fucked her here already.

That would then require different set of scenes which again as mentioend earlier not doing due to $$.

Perhaps in future we'll do alterations but this quest line closure is there only because bituka will find out about this sex and Julie only wanted sex from you , not love.

 

[Tomy75]

Well, it's still a bug though, now Julie's questline is closed even though I did not reject her, that's where your script has a flaw, Julie's questline should still be opened after this scene.

I give up anyway, maybe it's the langage barrier, but you don't seem to understand the real issue there, and that it would only take 5mn to solve it, no need for $$.

How is it a bug if we entered the code itself there for it?

It'd be a bug if on the same quest part in julie's update quest got closed too , which it doesn't.

Secondly , I understand your point but you're not reading the exact thing i am saying.

> Lets say you are on julie's questline

> You midway switch to bituka's questline

> You have not had sex with julie in her questline , if so then this thing makes sense.

If you had sex with her and then she acts this way then it makes no sense dialogue wise.

Then remove Julie's sex scene from Bituka's questline, problem solved, no contradiction, no nonsense, both questlines are finally clean. You said it yourself, this particular sex scene already exists in Julie's questline so there was no need to include it in Bituka's questline too, pure nonsense.

We include it only to make it have more realism , remember julie wants sex regardless and that's the whole point of it.

Not even sure what you're upset about as it's a quick way to grab corruption instead of slow burning but alright.

I'm upset because now both Julie and Bituka questlines are closed. End of their stories for me and probably many other players.
