Ren'Py Holiday Island [v0.4.5.0] [darkhound1]

[Harem_Master]

I think you have to wait until she asks for them. If you already have them before she asks, then you'll just get HI points and more empty vials.

Then maybe the freakin FAQ should be posted on the main post along with the updates instead of the useless shitty guide that doesn't explain shit aside from "lololol use cheats duhh". What tf am I supposed to type exactly to the search bar, whole sentences to get an answer ? I type stats, I typed charm, I typed training, I type whole kinds of keywords and you get fuck all, instead you get pages and pages of gibberish, most dating back to one year ago or more, 5 versions ago at least. I scrolled the 25 last pages of comment and there still wasnt anything remotely useful. Everyone says use the FAQ use the FAQ, well at long last I typed FAQ and lo & behold it's also a mess, there are 5 billion versions of it and you have to find the correct one hoping your question has an answer in it, hint : I found two previous versions of it and my question wasn't in it, so here we are.

I come in here hoping for some clarifications, because I clearly enjoy the game a great deal, I wouldn't bother coming in here if I didnt, yet after asking some genuine questions that the vast majority of people would find it hard to find the answers to, all I get is the dev shitting on my face and random people yelling "use the search bar! use the search bar!"... Very helpful community indeed the people in this thread. At least somebody took the time to bother giving an answer, and I greatly respect that, the rest ....

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't get your panties in a bunch because you do not know how to use the search function. A simple search of 'Increase Strength" returned numerous answers, the first three providing your answer and referencing Puppet Master's FAQ. By setting a date range of 'Newer than 1/1/20, it was even more exact. Same with the FAQ. Searched a version from October 2019 for 'Strength Training' and the same answer that MonsieurX gave was posted within. As for finding the latest version of the FAQ, Puppet Master had the post right above your initial post.



Not our fault you didn't notice it. You want the FAQ listed on the OP? Take it up with Pepe Le Pew. You want an updated Guide? I'll be happy to send you the posted version from the OP in either a PDF or MS Word format. When you update it you will be doing everyone a favor. I think it is great and commendable that you do not want to use a mod or 'cheats' while playing. However, you have to accept, that myself, Puppet Master, MonsieurX, Darkhound1, and others have been answering the same questions over and over again for almost two (2) years. If you cannot understand how we find that tiresome, then ....

Apologies in advance if this question has been asked before, but is it normal to have a girls lust be reduced the next day, despite having performed an action that increases lust? I'm well aware of the auto lust reduction, but I thought that kicked in only if no lust-increasing action was performed.

Yes, it is normal. Just like real life, they can be a bit fickle.

 

[Puppet Master]

If you pay attention to the girls, their affection and love won't get reduced, but if you raise their lust to a high level for a few days, then they may get so hot that they take care of it themselves. That's when their lust goes down. So if you all of a sudden see 6-9 girls lose lust, they all just masturbated somewhere.
Maybe one day we'll get cut scenes to show this.

Idea: The PC can buy spy cameras and place them in the girls' bedrooms using sneak. Then if a girl loses lust the PC can see a cut scene of her masturbating. We already have one for Yvette. That would be alot of effort to see it for so many girls. Maybe some day if there is enough interest.

Saves

No, because the polite way of asking would have been:
"Saves?"

 

[Bantry]

Saves

If you're indicating what you do while you play the game, then you're a wise man. Save early, save often, you won't be disappointed.

You only need to do the pool scene with Desire once to unlock the possibility for the visit Desire at night scene. This assumes that you got her to the point where she invites you to come to her room at night so she can return the favor. If that is done, now you need to have seen all three lingerie. It seems like you have seen one. This could be the trouble.

Her choice of lingerie is random. If you visit her at night when her stats are high (she won't wear the sexy one unless her lust is high) and she doesn't wear the sexy lingerie, then hit <PgUp> to roll back until you get to where you were when you decided to visit Desire. Then change your location or open your phone. This will reset the randomizer. Then visit her again. If she's still not wearing the sexy one, reset until she is.

That said, there may be a secret criteria which we aren't aware of that needs to happen for the scene to happen. For instance, we didn't know that Joy would not invite you to play poker unless you'd already beaten Jennifer first. Everyone else played poker with Jennifer right away and so always got the invite from Joy as soon as it was timed. When one guy couldn't get it, we later found out why. I added this to the FAQ. If you find out why it's not happening for you, let us know and we'll add it.

As to the matter of customizing your character, you choose which stat you want to be good at and your name. There is a way to change your name after the first scene which darkhound1 posted a few pages back. Search here or my FAQ to find it. I don't see the value of more customization than that.

If you want to customize the MC's look so that he wears different clothes or looks more like you, then that's not going to happen. I am not the developer, but the question came up recently. It was suggest that the MC could have a slight build to start, buff in the middle and jacked when he hits 10 strength. This would have required 1200 renders just to get started, not to mention the 600-1800 renders for all the scenes he is in. Just count the times he is in Yvette's dinner scene. Changes at the core of the game are not going to happen because it affects everything else that has been built up to now. Sorry.

Why can't I buy anything？

 

[Monsieur X]

Because the shop app wasn't added to your phone yet.
Let me guess, you just landed on the island, don't you ? That's why.

 

[Bantry]

Why can't I buy anything？

After careful consideration and checking your credit score with Equifax, TransUnion and Experian, we are sorry to inform you that we are unable to extend buying privileges to you at this time. Our advice is to masturbate on a regular daily basis to build up a reserve of Holiday Island Favor and we will review your credit scores again. If at that time you are approved, Joy will unlock the Shopping App on your phone. Happy wanking!

That and what MonsieurX said.

 

[darkhound1]

I have to say some of the post are quite entertaining
I really applaud you guys to muster the energy/take the time to answer the same questions over and over again.
A funny fact:

• the people complaining about to many posts and that the search returns too many hits are the exact same ones causing the problem in the first place

And I really think the FAQ is too long. Honestly, who wants to read all that shit There should be a FAQ on how to use the FAQ.
Just kidding ofc. All you guys that are helping are doing an incredible job!
THANK YOU!

 

[Monsieur X]

I learned inner calm by squeezing my balls with a clamping device while watching reality TV shows.
Also, as I told Bantry a long time ago, it doesn't worth it to break a nerve about it. At first I was amazed by the stupid but that's how it is and now I roll with it.
I guess most porn gamers want to play right off the bat without reading instructions, I am like that but I'm also not a full moron so I manage.

And PR wise, a bit of dick holding is always good....imagine if most of my posts were "fuck you, you're a moron, extract your fingers out of your ass and run a search", mmmh not great right

Puppet Master FAQ is really a wall of text, a comprehensive wall of text but do you think insta click internet fast fast youth will bother with it ? Let's be honest, they won't.
When a dude or a bro post, he expects an answer. Seeking the answer by him/herself is inconceivable.

Btw, I requested Puppet Master's FAQ to be linked to the OP..sorry if I was presumptuous.

Edit : and even the advanced search is shit.

 

[Bantry]

Yes, Puppet Master's FAQ is a wall of text, but if you open txt files in 'Notepad', as the majority of folks do, then all one has to do is click 'Edit' then 'Find' and enter what you're looking for. Would a clickable Table of Contents and pictures improve it? Possibly, but that is simpler said than done. I know, because I have been teaching myself how to do it for almost two months now in MS Word and Acrobat.

 

[Monsieur X]

Running a search in the text file....you're thinking ahead of the curve here.
Anyway, if the FAQ makes it to the OP, we shall see at the first "look at the FAQ in the OP" reply.

 

[Puppet Master]

I wouldn't mind putting the FAQ on page 1, but the last time I updated it was a few seconds ago to add Bantry's search idea. The latest version is linked below.
There is so much content in this game that I'm almost constantly adding things, so I don't know if a page one post that was even one month old would help that much. Plus, a few more weeks will bring a huge new update that will take me a month to get all the new questions added.
However, I suppose something is better than nothing.

 

[Monsieur X]

I used this link in my request https://f95zone.to/threads/holiday-island-v0-1-9-1-beta-darkhound1.3782/post-2925210

Just edit it to update the attached file.

Ouch That must be painful.

As a developer, I had to endure Word for years. Big companies will never accept that this abomination is just not cut out for writing technical documentation.
I'll take markdown or HTML any day.
Heck, even the f95zone's own markup language is better that Word!

Humm ... sorry for the rant ... I'm allergic to Word ... I'll go take my medication now

Done! Thanks!
Even if someone gets an FAQ that's a bit out of date, most of the questions they need answered will be in there, like 90% of Amy's love quest, etc.
