there already is a port I was just asking if you could compress it or is that basically the same problem?
if you can't that's ok but if you know anyone that might be able to please let me know

Or don't give me a list. Make this bother me and then have me do all the work myself. Prick.
Unzip the file and place the modified .rpy files into your $installpath\game directory. You're welcome.
Changing the character names was easy enough (aside from not knowing who any of these fuckers are and having to compare them by look/personality on the MLP wiki. . .seriously, fuck you for not giving me a list of fake names to in universe names), but then I had to script up something to change the dialogue too. Fuck regex also.
This should mostly work. Ran it for a second to verify no syntax errors on initial compile but you have no guarantee that it is error-free.
Cream, because they both run bakeries and enjoy throwing parties. I don't know why they decided to change the skin/hair color.
"the worst was unavodible ntr scene."
"FFS there's even no ntr tag!"
"there's no way to skip that scene"
2/5 stars
So this has come up twice now, but it kinda boggles my mind that people are saying my game has NTR in it, without even considering the context or defined relationships with the individuals in question. It's like saying your neighbour's wife is NTRing you.
Instance One - Butters with the Slime and Alraune: At this point in the story, Butters has not had sex with the player, nor is there any semblance of a loving or sexual relationship between you and the her. I think even the most devout players will struggle to call this one NTR, especially since you join in on both occasions.
Instance Two - Augusta Futa x Female: This is an avoidable scene (despite the fact a review called it unavoidable) in which a prostitute has sex with a client and you can join in. If your ego is so fragile that you think this is NTR to such a degree that the game has become unplayable, I pity you.
Instance Three - The Player NTRing almost every damn girl in the game: If you have a problem with your character fucking around, but can't handle the idea of a single other character in the game doing it, then you need to grow up.
The review did raise a decent point: That being some unusual content isn't avoidable in situations where the player is perhaps not comfortable. More player urgency shall be implemented in the future of my game development. However, I feel like that scene is still fitting, and the player can make up their own mind about what they take away from scenes like these. Especially considering that despite the roleplaying elements, the player character and player are not identical beings so it's not unreasonable to assume they may make decisions that you otherwise wouldn't. Don't feel like your personal character is any lessened because you didn't personally enjoy two of the fifty sex scenes.
I felt like it was pretty important to respond to this particular review since it was spreading misinformation. Thanks for putting up with this small rant.
-----------------
A small aside regarding the choices of character name and colours: This was a decision to distinguish Friendship with Benefits from any other established brands and copyrights so it can live and breathe as its own identity. This includes yet another rebranding as several characters have undergone more colour scheme changes and name changes:
Needless to say, this is a pretty damn important decision and it's necessary for FwB to exist. But it's not a necessary evil. Instead of letting FwB be limited by its inspirations, accept it for the new world and characters it has to offer. Do these brand new characters and world really deserve to be held back by naming them after something else?
-----------------
And now for some good news to balance out this post. A few people have wondered what's next for the game, especially since it's more or less finished. A Steam build of the game is being developed and it will include:
- A New City Menu like the World Map
- A new Deep Forest area that can be explored with all the 'equipment' from the market, one new romanceable character and one returner
- A new market stall with a romanceable character
- A revised 'final route' that better compliments Sundowner (Now Penelope's) arc.
- A new 100% completion ending

Having an issue with the church. It is the last thing undone but for the last work for the research I got the dialog but there was no scene with a girl in the wall. The next time I got the same dialog but showing a room with no one in it. Now it says -4 jobs remaining.
I think this was fixed in 1.01, but there's chance I didn't find that until after. Even so, it'll definitely be fixed in the next update.
As far as I'm aware, this bug only occurs after you've qualified for finishing the research, so you can still access these scenes from the gallery/crystal ball
NTR almost doesn't have any meaning anymore due to a bunch of idiots using it to describe anything that doesn’t fit a worldview of “I 100% own these characters.” Seems like there’s a lot of cave-brain people out there.
Thanks for clarifying. I don’t care about the names personally, just saw something that seemed easy to mod (at first glance) and wanted to flex my scripting a bit. If you feel the (unofficial, not supported, etc.) modded files I attached to be a threat of any kind (legal, copyright, etc.) I’ll remove them, just let me know.
It's pretty easy to mod:
1. Change name definitions in the init file
2. Replace every occurrence of a spoken name and nickname.
3. Avoid changing any instance of a .png file being changed in the code while finding and replacing all. Otherwise you'd have to go into the image files and rename every .png file associated with that character. (I don't know any efficient way to do this, I personally did end up changing every .png file name.)
The idea of a mod that does this is okay, however it disappoints me to see some individuals so clingy for these other names. I'm not going to pretend FwB is some magical and super original idea, but the world and characters are so different that the slightly off names are important to the identity of the game, and in some ways one of the main themes.

that's it? I thought you had to replace files and I didn't see similar files
Edit: that seems to have worked, I'm not familiar with modding renpy stuff
