Correct! And time permitting, I'm going to add two more small scenes - one featuring Alex, and one with Risa.

Risa is the thirsty receptionist at Guy's building but i don't remember Alex, who is she? My memory can be shitty for names sometimes.

Nice. Totally forgot about her.

Alex is Nikki's archnemesis. She took umbrage at how nakedly Alex was flirting with Guy while installing the hot tub. It was memorable to me because Nikki made the funniest expression in the entire game when she was mocking her. It was like one of the Assholes from Spaceballs fucked Veruca Salt from Willy Wonka.

 

[Mr. Muscles]

I don't know, man. I'm still stuck on the Ashe x Nicki long-term dilemma (if the game allows it). Hoping to see more of Ashe's tender side, if it ever arrives. Great stuff.

Oh now i remember that scene.

Is sharing there in the game?

You can share Nikki with Britini during a photoshoot, but there aren't any other sharing scenes yet.

The girls are sharing our MC, I guess.

Hah! I have a weird view of that game, which boils down to: it's not good, but I like it! I think that as this whole genre has expanded and grown, Bad Bobby has remained this weird, quaint little project that somehow still tends to work. Like, the art is a little weird, it's laden with typos, and the story is very straightforward, but there's kind of a visceral appeal to it.

I'd planned to do a riff on the scene where Bobby discovers Lucy in the shower after a night of partying, but never really had the time to futz with it.

Thank you! Too kind!

Where are those images from?

 

[soldano]

I'm surprised to see Bad Bobby in this thread. Aren't there several versions out there? Being able to catch shoplifters and blackmail them caught my attention, but nothing more. And that never finished being fully implemented either.

In any case, Bad Bobby and FiN are light years away. With FiN winning by far, obviously.

You can share Nikki with Britini during a photoshoot, but there aren't any other sharing scenes yet.

What when? Is this on a dark path?

That's my unfinished Bad Bobby-inspired game, which I was calling Party Monster at the time. Because it takes place after a Halloween party.

What when? Is this on a dark path?

Sharing is putting it a bit strongly, maybe. But yes, if you force Brittani to continue the photoshoot after you wake up from getting sucker-punched by Jamie, and Nicki's on a dark path, you can have Nicki participate in the photoshoot as well. During which Brittani will grope and disrobe her, while she's in-character as a devil.

I get this error when Carolina asks me if I know anyone that can babysit Maya. If I click ignore, it continues as if I suggested to find someone online. Any ideas?

Yea it's literally discussed on the page before this one.
https://f95zone.to/threads/friends-in-need-v0-39-neonghosts.112500/post-10772049
At least ... I think it's the same thing. Since it seems like it's same error that's showing up.

 

[concord72]

Hey NeonGhosts there is a omitted variable for bri_fear on her nice paths. At the end of the nice options the variable bri_rel is there but not bri_fear. So when the conversation with Carolina comes up about a babysitter, an error pops up.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 34083, in script
    menu:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 34103, in <module>
    "Suggest Brittani." if brirel == 0 or brirel == 1 and bri_fear == False :
NameError: name 'bri_fear' is not defined

To anyone looking for quick and dirty fix, open up the script.rpy in the game folder.

Edit the following line from this:

label ch4_britt_photoshoot:
    "Remembering your appointment with Brittani, you click your tongue."

To this:

label ch4_britt_photoshoot:
    $ bri_fear = False
    "Remembering your appointment with Brittani, you click your tongue."

Load a save before the photoshoot and play normally. I haven't checked all of the script, but the dark paths appear to correctly change this to true where needed, its just the non-dark ones that are missing the variable entirely. However, by adding my suggested change at the very beginning of the scene, at least it there is no way to accidentally skip over the variable regardless of any choices made during the photoshoot scene.

Is there any way to fix this if you don't have a save before the photoshoot?

 

[Master of Puppets]

Is there any way to fix this if you don't have a save before the photoshoot?

Yes, do it the way I mentioned before; create a file in the game folder, put default bri_fear = False in it and give it a .rpy extension. That way no matter where you saved, it will initialise bri_fear when you load it.
