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

[NightTrain]

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.

Yes, I think we can have a lot of fun with Michelle!

I really have no idea how to go about creating a story here, but I'd guess start with finding a video clip, watch the clip a few times and decide a) who she's having sex with (please pick the MC!), b) where they're having sex, and c) why they're having sex (i.e., was she tricked, blackmailed, seduced, etc?). Then try to think up a sequence of events that would lead up to that sexual encounter. These can just be short encounters and conversations, backed up by some static images or short video clips. With a bit of text, and the images and video files, I can easily write the thread and add it to the game.

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.

I'll work on figuring out gitgud.io this week, as I've now managed to squash most of the reported bugs.

I'd like to see your suggestions implemented, but only as long as the current system also remains in place, with the player retaining control of how much grind. The reason is that many players (myself included) like a bit of grind, or at least some tasks that need to be completed (such as winning a mini-game or solving some sort of puzzle) before being rewarded with the next hot scene, or else the game becomes too much like a visual novel (which is also fine when I'm in the mood for a visual novel) or just watching porn (which is also fine when I just want to watch porn).

So, for example, your first suggestion could easily be implemented with a switch in the cheat menu that would lock those stats to the maximum value, and remove the corresponding menu options from the bathroom/kitchen/office/etc. Those menu options could show up dynamically as needed, such as when you can meet Caprice in the gym or for the sex scenes with the nanny in the bathroom.

For your third suggestion, we'd need to think a bit about how to increase the relationship. Would it just increase a level after a specific scene had been viewed? Or something like you remain in level 1 until you've seen the first 8 scenes, and then you advance to level two which will open up another 6 scenes, etc. And this could be done on the event or thread level. I think it would be possible to support both styles of relationship points.

Your third suggestion would be more difficult to implement while also keeping the existing time mechanics working.

What do you think of more casual interactions like "to the fullest" (which is basically a Renpy remake of Unfaithful rebirth"), meaning that instead of just talking, you can flirt or do place-based interactions (kiss, pool stuff, under-the-table lewd things)? Stuff that might be done without doing a full quest/thread?
Red Fox has a lot of unfortunately solo/lesbo stuff but also some videos that would work to make it look like is her mother.

"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. "

Hi. Yes I find it eventually. The fact it take me a while and wasn't obvious even when I was looking for it, give me the feeling it would be much better place on the same page like the threads. For example under them as currently most of them are mainly horizontal there is plenty of space currently. I'm not sure how much expansion you planning content wise.

New points:
1) I got feel a bit limited that College is not a location what I can visit anytime to hunt for college girls, but its an event at home. That's a bit cuckoo egg in game design.

2) Also locations like Madison, Laura's Parents, Adams... are not accessible at beginning of game. I think it would much more roleplay friendly, if they would not show on a map until they gets accessible. Also I'm sure it would greatly help reducing pointless clicking for those who play without location guide. Beyond that adding locations one by one would give a more natural, new player friendly, introduction like, learning curve to the game. (Based on the presumption its not hard to code it..)

How the heck do you play with the kid? He just moan about should play with him, but no options anywhere to actually do it?

You can only bathe and play with the baby at certain times. Bathe at 07:00 or 18:00. Play at 09:00, 16:00 or 19:00.

Thanks to all the volunteers who agreed to test v0.1.3, it's now available to download on the OP. This patch should make it easier to find some missing events. Don't forget to turn on and off thread highlighting in the thread board, so you aren't overloaded with green choices.

There are still (at least) two important events that the highlight system isn't catching:

I'm too lazy to move the help button, but I've changed its color to make it more obvious. It's hard to miss now!

New points:

Yes, the college does seem very underused, and it's not clear why you can only go there twice a week, at a time that is very inconvenient (it interferes with my time in the gym). I'll consider adding it as a location that you can go to whenever you want to meet Lily (maybe only 9:00 to 18:00 on weekdays), but it would make sense if more content was added with random college girls at the same time. If anyone wants to make additional content, this would be a great place to add stuff, where you really aren't constrained by the rest of the story. Or maybe some of Foxy's friends that we've already met.

2) Also locations like Madison, Laura's Parents, Adams... are not accessible at beginning of game. I think it would much more roleplay friendly, if they would not show on a map until they gets accessible. Also I'm sure it would greatly help reducing pointless clicking for those who play without location guide. Beyond that adding locations one by one would give a more natural, new player friendly, introduction like, learning curve to the game. (Based on the presumption its not hard to code it..)

Thanks for the suggestion. In v0.1.3 I've changed the city map so that Adams' House and Madison's House only show up when you've progressed far enough that you can actually meet someone there. Because you're right, how would the MC know where the Madison's live if he'd never met them? I've also changed the appearance of other locations on the city map when those locations are closed.

This would be great

I tried working on "Son of a Bitch" a while back, and may give that another go once I've worked out the remaining bugs in Family Life. But it'll take at least 6 months to get something out, so don't hold your breath. I'll only work on games that are completed or obviously abandoned, because it's really difficult to update a remake with each update to the original game, and feels like a bit of a snub to the developer. That said, I'm also playing around with Favorite Teacher, because the game seems to have potential but I can't figure out how to get anywhere.

keep up that good work i would really like to See continuing sob i Love that Game

Finally! I can play this game without going crazy!? SIGN ME UP!

Hey there, the only thing i need to do to install a patch is copie the rpa file into the game folder and reload the game? How do I see if the installation is been done properly?
Thanks.

Check the Threads board in the Cheat menu, if there are blue squares then you still need events packs.

 

[jamesyoung.criminalcase]

do we need to start a new game when using patch 1.3? i already finished most of the threads available, and i guess errors appear for saves with progress already too far in the game when using patch 1.3

 

[jonata203]

anyone can help me every time 21h when i go to adams i need to gift nikki but everytime i get a threesome scene and i cant complete the quest

Could that be the reason why your membership expired unexpectedly?

Probably, since the story reset doesn't actually roll anything else back, right? I must have missed the gym membership time limit.

Something I meant to suggest earlier: have the hint Eye icon change color or something to signify if it's active or not. I've been stuck a few times where I wasn't sure if it was on or off, and there were no active events at the time for me to check against.

Edit: Testing the patch now, and two things: 1) Somehow, I jumped to ginaLounge3 without completing 1 and 2 (but having completed 0 prior to patching). In the Threads screen, 2 is showing as available tomorrow, but 1 and 4 are greyed out. Also, in the last section of the event, the amount of text exceeded the textbox size, and I couldn't read it (Same thing on ginaPool 0).

Pseudo-edit: just occurred to me: it probably actually triggered 1, but the wrong node on the Threads page was colored in.

how do you get nannytoPunish ?

how do you get nannytoPunish ?

See from last page:

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