Shoving three new characters into the scenario has never sat well with me.
If he'd moved Olivia and Lisa into Kate's class and Max into the other one, only one character would need to be removed.
I think everybody would have been happier as well - those that want to interact with Max can, those that don't want to wouldn't have been forced to.
But meh. $40 patrons only want more holes to shove a cock into.
Not just a cock. Max's cock.
We knew that Max was eventually going to be added, but this sudden decision about Lisa and Olivia really seemed "out of the blue."
I agree, but I couldn't vote in the other poll so I voted to make the best of the situation moving forward. It sucks, but I have a feeling this is what DS wanted, otherwise they would have let more than just the whalers vote.
It reminds me of some of the aspects of the US Electoral college. A select group of voters end up having 350% say.

I get what you are saying about some of DS's decisions. The idea of repeating the "balance of Kate and Max updates" poll until Kate was no longer emphasized.

Dark Silver is in a bad spot he has not been able to get Big Brother fans back in numbers he used to have and now he is pissing off Glamor fans by rewriting that side of the game to add in more content to please the Big Brother fans that are not coming back and losing Glamor supporters. Don't see why he can't just add a New Class and add content not take away content.
I haven't left fully yet, but I've reduced my support to $1.
He even opened the concept of other classes.
I think you are misunderstanding what is going on. DS has turned over all major decisions to high paying patrons. The majority of which are old BB fans and returning BB fans now that Glamour and BB are combined. The BB fans are more willing to pay for the higher tier and thus get more say in the development, whereas the Glamour fans seem unwilling to do much more than complain.
Well, some of us are leaving or reducing our support.

I don't know if his focus on the small number of $40 supporters is going to pay off in the long term. I would think that pissing off a larger number of "lesser" patrons would result in lower total income. Perhaps he's trying to entice the lower patrons to upgrade in order to have a say.

Dark Silver is in a bad spot ...
DS is Russian, as long as he can maintain 1000 patrons, it's enough to live a happy life. A hundred or even 500 angry patrons from total 1787 won't affect his income. If the average patrons is $5, not 10 or 20 or the highest tier $40, he still get around $4750/month (after patreon 5% cut). Even a russian pilot captain paid less than that number.

That's not at all how the electoral college works or was designed to work. However since this thread isn't about US politics if you want to discuss it dm me

you are just creating a self fulfilling prophecy. Yes DS seems to be alienating his lower tier Glamour supporters, whether its intentional or incidental who knows, however the more they leave the less voice they will have in what happens.

In college, 1.5 cripples that have not yet been disclosed, DS finally decided to kill the college theme, since if he was interested, Katya and Alice would be in the 2nd year at the current gaming moment, and Max and his brood entered the 1st course.

В колледже итак не раскрытые 1,5 калеки, ДС окончательно решил убить тему колледжа, так как если бы был заинтересован, то Катя и Алиса на текущий игровой момент были бы на 2-м курсе, а Макс со своим выводком поступил на 1-й курс.

Ok, so, he must write two different stories...
The first one for Max or BB lovers
And the second one for Glamour original (Kate's story)
Actually, the first one became the only one.
Some interactions are ok, but, mixing Max and Kate's stories is stupid...
PS : I don't had played the game since 3 months... Even Kate's releases are around Max and only Max... Kate became one of Max's harem... Sorry, I hate that...

This is not something unique for this game.Even AAA games are ignoring the majority of players in order to appeal only to a small circle of whales.

it's in AppData\Roaming\glamour-updater\Local Storage, there is a folder named leveldb that's the save folder
Indeed.

But, contrary to what the guy who made the save exporter/importer said, the savegames are NOT in JSON format and cannot be edited!

saves are not encrypted anymore so you don't have to use programs to import saves, just copy any save to your computer and it will work

Bad spot ?!? o_O he's got 1790 patrons!!
He had Double that at one point and was the number one subscribed adult game on Patreon
you can make more by lowering tier costs and gaining more subs $40 is high in the US now too plus Covid-19 has killed millions of jobs for good

I became a Patreon to play Max.
But was NOT pleased when discovering that Max was but a hollow shell ! (0.23)
Even Now at 0.32 Max is still without STATS ! He is nought but a means to access soft CGI porn.
There is little to no gameplay.
BUT then there was Kate.
An interesting and Humorous Storyline.
A delightful tale of misadventure and intrigue.
But now alas, it seems that DS's Muse , Like Kate's storyline has fallen by the wayside.
So now I, like many other, now seek someone else to support.

I largely lost interest when so many of the updates switched to Max updates. But I assume DS looked at the analytics. And the analytics must say that people would rather have Max as the main character. Shrug.

Resize the window until the travel buttons become visible.

Or, I made a bugfix here: https://f95zone.to/threads/glamour-v0-32-dark-silver.10579/post-4366221

If you're on the latest 0.32 client, make sure you do a backup before applying the bugfix. It will turn the client into 0.31 with bugfixes. 0.31 has the latest content for Kate path (which is the one that has the bugs).

I haven't bothered porting the bugfixes to 0.32 and am not really planning to until the next Kate update if the bugs still haven't been fixed officially by then :(

Basically, if you're doing a Kate playthrough, I recommend applying the bugfixes. If you're doing a Max playthrough, do not apply the bugfixes.

In future, do check out the FAQ linked in the OP, most questions have already been answered there. There's also a link in my sig.

i cannot thank you enough, you have helped me so much, inbox me if you'd like a reward for being so amazing babe xxxxxx

Max cannot study on the same course as Alice. If Alice is his older sister. If Lisa is Max's younger sister. Then she cannot study on the same course as Max. Moreover, Liza cannot study on the same course as Alice
If Lisa went to college (as in reality)
1 - first course Lisa
2 - second course Max
3 - third course Alice.
But why logic when there is a patreon. DS does not understand that he just drove the first nail into Glamor's coffin (and BB)
PS: If there are BB fans here, then there is a more promising development that you can support

Who said that Max in Glamor is a direct relative, not an adopted son, so he may be the same age as Lisa.

Кто сказал что Макс в Glamor является прямым родственником, а не усыновлённым, так что он может быть и ровесником Лизы.

Maybe so.
But this question can only be answered by the Developer.

Why don't you demonstrate the corresponding screenshot then?
I already replied your question.

You can download the pictures or play the game, it doesn't matter. What you cannot do is to give me orders.

And until next update I've the game uninstalled
