[can't_relate]

Oh and the MC using Amelie instead of calling her Mom was intentional at certain points as a way to sort of breach the threshold further between Son / Mother interactions, using her name being somewhat more intimate I guess?

It’s up to your artistic choices really, but even then it would have more impact if he refers to her by her name only in private. There was a scene where he does that in front of Kylee, which doesn’t make much sense because why would they risk their relationship being known.

Personally, I prefer the MC not using her name. It’s much hotter if they accept that they have a parent child relationship, yet they still choose to be intimate despite that. They don’t need to act like real couples and ignore their real relationship. Acknowledging their relationship everytime is the way to go, in my opinion of course.

I played one incest-themed game where the mom didn't like the MC to call her anything other than "Mom" during sex because she got off on it, and she was pretty adamant about it

Do you remember the name?

 

[Chinwiskers]

I hear you guys on the first name thing, I'll adjust it to be primarily "mom" (or whichever familial tag you've chosen at the start) and maintain the consistency of their relationship throughout. It's not something I'm hard stuck on and have no objections to altering!

Thanks once more for your feedback! Always welcome, positive and negative!

One thing I will say for the later Chapters, eventually Amelie's language and tastes will ramp up with the MC, perhaps she too will reveal that she has an addictive craving for the very particular taboo they are engaging in...

If you've played any of this Re-Write you will notice that for example Lauren's dialogue and personality has been dialled up to Ultra Thirsty Milf 9000, she's been without it for a long time and it really shows once the MC shows even the slightest hint that he's interested in her sexually (Especially considering her last "interaction" with her ex-husband revolved around him belittling her for being overweight).

It makes sense in case of Lauren because she’s just a side character, but Amelie comes off to me as a reserved and modest woman. Hope you keep her personality consistent that way.

I mentioned the momma bear thing, I really like it when motherly instincts and sexual intimacy are mixed and blurred during a scene. It makes the coming together so much more powerful.

I would refer you to the first love path sex scene between Eve and Denis in Monkey Business. There’s a better english/dialogue mod for that one too, and oh brother is that the best MS scene I have ever experienced, it’s among one the best MS couples ever too. You can refer to that dialogue to get the feel of how it could be, though the MC and Amelie haven’t had sex yet.

For the patio arc where they REALLY act like a couple, I would refer you to a similar storyline in No More Money between Charlotte and MC.

There’s a scene in a supermarket I think that’s quite similar to the nursery visit with Amelie and MC, where someone mistakes them for a couple. I think that game has an i-patch, it was handled quite well in that game. The whole game has awesome dialogue and flirting in fact.

Oh for sure, Amelie will always remain herself in my eyes. So far I've kept the pacing in step with the original and I wouldn't want to derail how Amelie feels as a character to the audience at this point, I always saw her as the ultimate motherly figure and it would not feel very organic if she just switched lanes to being an ultra-slut like Lauren lol.

Maybe I'll try this out when it's complete, only five more chapters to edit...

Is there a guesstimation on when this will be up to date? sounds like an awesome mod but would be weird to go from mom/sisters to aunt/cousin mid game

 

[humanjelloman]

Thank you so much for this, eagerly awaiting the update

Chinwiskers Thank you for your hard work so far, I just wanted to point out the hilariously badly timed error in the OP. There's no apostrophe in plurals, so your line about fixing typos having an incorrect apostrophe is very ironic.

Haha a very good question indeed! Especially considering Chapter 10 was just released! A pleasant surprise indeed, I'll need to do a quick scan and see where the narrative has arrived in this latest release should be interesting!

ROFL I just looked back and laughed at that myself just now - very ironic indeed lol.

And I'm very glad to see another interested party! Any feedback good or bad is HUGELY welcome I have to say!

Thank you so much for this, eagerly awaiting the update

Thank you for your patience and interest! I'll be doing my best!

Chinwiskers Have you thought about making a text replacement mod instead of the standalone modded version of the game.

Doing a text replacement mod would make it:
- a very small sized mod
- forward compatible (working with current and future versions of the game)
- most likely compatible with other mods, such as the gallery mod
- maybe faster workflow/updates (I'm not sure about this one because I haven't looked at the difference between the game's code and your code

Edit : I have a mod template that I'd gladly share with you and explain the code to you if need be.

For simple text replacement you can use the 0x52 mod

URM (0x52) is limited in what it can do and I don't think it could be used to create a mod for a specific game that can be shared to other players.
I'm talking about a more specific text replacement for a full rewrite like the mod is doing.
And the code I have has a function that allows replacements depending on who is talking.
And it also take capitalization into account when replacing names or relations.
And there is also a section for exclusion to avoid replacements in some cases where it wouldn't make sense grammatically.

The mod did originally begin as a text only replacement but as I added other features that replaced none script files I lost track of what needed to be included in each update resulting in some terrible issues lol I went with the standalone format just to simplify debugging on my end really but I definitely agree a text only version would benefit the community hugely. The other additions i added were really just small QoL things like font type changing and Chapter selection etc

Hello everyone, I hope someone can help me.
I downloaded the standalone mod Heart Problems v0.40 Re-Write (I did not download the original game), but when I launch the mod's executable file Heartproblems.exe, the game does not start. In Task Manager, the executable is active.
Am I doing something wrong? Thank you.

I've had a similar problem with other games and the problem was coming from windows.
Restarting my PC fixed the issue.

There is also the possibility that the game takes a while to load. I have a decent PC and it takes 5~10 sec to launch.
