Ren'Py Completed Family Life Unofficial Ren'Py Conversion [v1.0.0] [NightTrain]

[NightTrain]

Status Update: Version 0.1.3 is almost ready. This version contains several bug fixes and additional features, including:

• In trigger descriptions, indicate which person the MC should talk to (thanks Sazhm).
• In trigger descriptions, show minimum day constraints (thanks Claudio83).
• In trigger descriptions, show probability for random events (they still show up green in the in-game highlighting only if you're going get a successful random number at the current time).
• Paths between the mall and home are now properly highlighted (thanks finndem).
• Fixed issue with being unable to repeatedly give gifts (thanks seadart123).
• Added missing threads to thread board. Some of these are needed to start more important threads, like ginaLola (thanks Donho78 and trashhumper).
• Added user control of which threads have highlighted hints (thanks finndem).
• Added Locate, Threads, and Quick Menu buttons directly to the main screen (The L, T, and Q beside the hamburger - this illustrates my lack of artistry in creating icons!) (thanks taler and Baka plays).
• Reduced NPC icon cycling. Now a fixed icon is used when the relationship is low, another as it gets higher, and then a randomly-selected one when the relationship is very high (by which time it's hoped you have a better idea of who is who). I can't figure out how to make a tool tip showing the girl's name. (thanks Johny Alfa and Baka plays).
• Changed font size and button placement for smaller screens. A huge thank-you to taler for implementing this!
• Added ability to unblock any blocked thread. This will allow it's content to start playing immediately, so only use it when you're ready to start that thread.
• Fixed bug with Tamara Party thread (thanks kinghell).
• Fixed an issue where is was difficult to talk to Johnny at the strip club (thanks ChaosDancer).

Now, that's the good news. The bad news is that some of these changes (particularly with defining new threads) required me to engage in various dark arts to get old saves to work. I think I finally managed to patch something together, and I'm no longer having any problems myself, but I'm very hesitant to release this more widely until I have more testing done. The last thing I want to do is corrupt people's save files forcing them to restart (anyone ever played Favorite Teacher?).

So, I'm looking for a few volunteers to try out the new version. Ideally I'd like people with enough sense to not overwrite their old saves, and the ability to revert back to the previous version of the game if this version turns out to be a real shit-show. I understand that this isn't a great sales job, but if you'd like to be a tester, please send me a message and I'll send you a link to the new patch file.

hello, i can't find how trigger "nannyToPunish" to complete the Nanny "sex" thread. I tried for around 3h. If someone have the solution, i'll take it it gladly. Really nice work with the conversion btw.

 

[trashhumper]

Downloaded all of this and made a start tonight. Wow, this one big game. Well done at coding it all and... well... just everything... it looks immense.
I've been fumbling around a bit and using the cheat to show me where I need to be and at what times, otherwise I'd never see them.
A quick question though. I can only eat twice in the kitchen giving me 60 food energy, which I use up by early evening and then can't do any more. I can eat in the cafe for $100, but is this by design? i.e. no way I can eat more at home each day? $100 a day for food seems a lot

For satisfying hunger, you can eat breakfast with your family every weekday morning at 9am and every weekday evening at 7pm (no weekends).

I just found and started to play a few hours yesterday, so here is my initial feedbacks.:

Thanks for the feedback! Note that in this conversion I tried to say as true to the original game as I could. It was never my intention to add new content, just make the game somewhat playable, since that's pretty much the limit of my skill set.

1) Some animations has voice, it's nice but voice / total silence changes is a bit awkward some music/ambient sound for the rest of the game would be nice.

The audio issue is important, particularly if you have your volume turned up because there's no sound, and then suddenly there is. The music whenever I reach an ending always shocks me, even though I now know it's coming. If you can send me some nice ambient sound files and background music, I can easily add that to the game. Something to remind the player to watch their speaker volume, at least. Unfortunately, I think there's uneven volume control across all the video files (since they all come from different sources), and I don't know how to control that.

2) Portraits are changing randomly, it take a while to get used to who is who, it would be helpful and would create a better first experience if portrait pictures would be named/labelled and wouldn't change randomly but they were fix based on time/relationship/location whatever.

Thanks for this suggestion. I've incorporated this into the next version. The portrait pictures will change as your relationship increases, up to a point, and then it'll revert to the random selection.

3) Thread would be even better if it would contain some legend.

Click on the "Help" button on the thread board for a legend and more details.

4) I find very lost regarding how to make money and do jobs as for several days you can't; some better guidance hints around it would be great.

You should be able to start working right from the beginning, but it's random whether or not you'll be successful. In the next version I'll changed the menu prompt in your office to make it more clear that this is the "Look for work" button. But honestly, the pay is sooo low, and working takes so much time, that it's almost impossible to get any pleasure out of this game if you don't start with a large pool of money. The game really needs a "Cheat Money" button!

5) I managed to raise relationship with Laura quite early with cheat money and gifts, so cheat and swinging got blocked for me. It would be awesome if with positive relationship we could convince to spice up marriage with swinging/different swinging path, or just instigate fights/arguments to reduce relationship on purpose to reopen path. Or just like strength and hygiene relationship would naturally decrease, so if you neglect her for long time she start looking for attention somewhere else again...

I don't know why this thread is even in the game. There's no way anyone ever triggered it in the original game. I suspect the original developer got a lot of complaints from players who strongly objected to this content so he made it harder to trigger. I suspect I'll get similar complaints if I make this a thread that people can accidently walk into. For now, if you want to enable this thread, select the "Force enabled lauraCheat" button on the thread name in the thread board. Ideally, I'd like to allow the player to select which content they want to see, and disable those threads they don't want, while making everything they want more accessible. But that won't happen soon, and probably won't happen unless others start developing new content for this game.

6) Further content suggestion, if you have money you could hire staff gardener/chauffeur/maid/chef //

Excellent suggestions! Not sure I want to google "chauffeur porn" to look for content though.

Thanks again for your feedback. It's given me a lot to think about.

hello, i can't find how trigger "nannyToPunish" to complete the Nanny "sex" thread. I tried for around 3h. If someone have the solution, i'll take it it gladly. Really nice work with the conversion btw.

You have to make progress on the nannyOfficeCam thread. This is another one of the "forgotten" threads, which will be added to the thread board in v0.1.3. In the meantime, just start watching the hidden cameras between 10:00 and 23:00 and you'll start seeing videos of Angelica, Gina, and Foxy. There are a lot of videos here.

 

[NightTrain]

I made the changes that I talked about here.

Larger text, buttons, etc. If anyone else is on Android and wants to have an easier time with the UI here's the files.

Thanks for this improvement! This being a pirate site and all, I shamelessly incorporated this into v0.1.3 of the game. If you get around to trying the new version, please let me know if it works on your system. And if you have an other ideas that would make the UI more appropriate, let me know.

 

[NightTrain]

hi , have a way to know how see all event ?

Bring up the thread board (you may need to enable it from the cheat menu) and you'll see most of the events in the game (you'll see even more in the next version). If you just want to watch the porn scenes, you can just start clicking on the boxes in the thread board to see every event.

 

[NightTrain]

Played some good hrs and haven't ran into bugs til now. That game feels way smoother than its qsp origin.
If i may make a suggestion for the UI: the always changing portrait images can be a bit confusing at times.
And the "locate" button would work better as a button on its own bc i use it a damn lot lol.
Sidenote: Damn shame that anjelica boyd only did h-scenes with her "boyfriend" back in the day and a handful of lesbian scenes.
The only other BG scene i know of is when Rocco got to bang her. (Probably paid a lot for it that lucky bastard
If she had some more variety, the original dev could have made her one of the daughters ... that would have been the cherry on top with cream and chocolate sprinkles.

Glad you've managed to avoid the bugs so far! I've fixed the portrait images and added a locate button in the next version.
I think the lovely Angelica branched out more recently, so there's now lots of content, but it's probably too late to make her his third daughter. Unless we want to add some sort of twist where she turns out to be an illegitimate daughter from an affair the MC had in the past!

 

[NightTrain]

I've put the event .rpa into the game folder, but the last big event is when the daughter gets banged by her boyfriend. The game after this goes days and days without anything happening.

Have I made a mistake somewhere or is that the end of the game?

It sounds like you're just at the beginning, but it depends on which daughter and which boyfriend. But in any case you're nowhere near the end.

Enable the thread board from the cheat menu, then look at the thread board. If there are any blue squares then your event1.rpa file is in the wrong folder (it should be in the same folder as event0.rpy).

You can also use the thread board for hints on how to find more events.

 

[NightTrain]

and
https://f95zone.to/threads/mothers-best-friend-v0-15-mbf-games.803/

Oh, I'd forgotten about Family Problems. I tried playing that several times, and felt there was a lot of potential, but I couldn't understand a word of the translation, so basically just clicked away hoping something would happen and never really understanding why when something did!

First off, good work and keep it up. If you're open to suggestion about relationship, I think sister/half sister would be much more easy to implement since they're both originally from Russia. I don't think there's not much story twist that is needed for it, thanks

is there any way/s or possible we can play ALL events in ALL characters involved without being block when wrong choices have been made?
although i follow the highlighted choices still im still blocked. cant move on. or its just a bug?

 

[Evergreen1]

One thread in the category nannySex has the condition NannytoPunish. Can someone give me a hint on how to achieve that?

Keep watching the hidden cams. For me it triggered when I saw a video of Angelica pissing in the backyard.

 

[Hybris]

I love the order that you have managed to bring to this game. I have tried several times over the years to play and mod the QSP version but I could never get it to work even somewhat reliably.
Excellent work and here's hoping you'll finish the fight.

 

[Gryf]

WOW just WOW. You did an AWESOME Job with this conversion. that game is finaly playable and fapable. Thank u very much and please continue the good work. I was able to play almost all the threads now without bugs. The only threads i m not able to play are are Anton, Patrick and Trisome after i took michael as Foxi s boyfriend. and i see no option to enable those threads... since there is no force path like with lauras cheat and swinger paths. if anyone knows how to get that 3 threads done i would apreciate to know. and again THANKS for the good work.

 

[LordGil]

This looks awesome! The original FamilyLife is one of the best games on here imo, really looking forward to seeing where you take this project!

Absolutely, you're doing a great job so far. Like I said earlier I recommend a gitgud.io so we can all contribute.

I actually have half a desire to make huge changes to the game to make it more palatable to me, let me know what you guys think of these ideas:

• Removing entirely the food, wash, looks, charisma, money etc mechanics. I hate all that stuff, even with cheats it's intolerably grindy and adds nothing to the game imo.
• Vastly simplifying the time system so it's just "morning, afternoon, evening, night".
• Vastly simplifying the REL mechanics so that it's just 1 number event. So if you get 1 rel you'll have 1 event, and at the end you'll only need like 10 REL max to see everything.

I think with all that the game will end up being like Corruption if you guys ever played that game. https://f95zone.to/threads/corruption-v2-30-mr-c.1878/ It's a vastly more successful and popular game simply because it doesn't have a ton of dumb grind in it.

to be honest that would be way toooooo much simplifying .... i like to work for my fapcontent (just not grind endlessly for it) and like the conversion is now i think its perfekt. but well we are all different when it comes to fapcontent (tbh with your simplifications it would be nothing more than a porno on a pornsite..... no content at all)

I was highly surprised that you went through and converted everything into webms. I am quite impressed, and I am not sure where to begin for helping you, for me, taking a clip and slicing it into a webm is not a problem, I guess is a matter of finding which clips, I am surprised Michelle "Red Fox" doesn't have a lot more since there is indeed much more.
