Hello redknight! I appreciate your contribution to the F95Zone, and would like to welcome you to the site!

Is this still going?

Is this still going?

what does that mean?

 

[Nobodyinthefree]

Strip club's still broken, yeah?

 

[DrLizardman]

Unless there's a dev command i am just going to have to start over. No matter how many updates I do I still cannot go out on Friday . Does anyone have a clue why a date could get locked out like that so I dont mess it up again?

Is there a way to play this without the VT mods? simply deleting the map from the mods directory doesn't work: It wont let me start the game then

What I do is go to the GIT page and near the upper right corner change it to the develop branch. Then click on the 'code' button near the upper right corner and download as a zip. This will download just the base game. Once you unzip it, you will also need to unzip the runtime folder inside it. Place the game folder inside the runtime environment folder. Move and/or rename that runtime folder to wherever you want. That will be the current build of the game.

Is there a possibility to get the Dev builds working in Joiplay?
I always get this error:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While loading the script.
Exception: Could not load from archive bugfix_additions/action_mod_core.rpyc.

How can i fix this?

I'm seeing the same thing even starting a new game. You get one Friday night date after it's over, you cannot plan a new one, stating that you always have a date planned though it never occurs

TY, That is the base/beta without any mods iirc. which worked under my windows install. But i do want to play around with the other mods and the install script for mods that comes with that: i haven' t been able to get to work under Linux/Wine.
Is there a convenient, stand-alone and pref, sortable, mod-package somewhere?
I don't see it on Github or the OP.

Nope, just on the Discord, everything is on Discord or the Git.

So 2 things. Is there any difference between grabbing this and just running the updater included in the files? And are the devs aware of the Friday night bug?

It was reported on discord on the 28th of January, didn't see any replies, so I'm not sure if they've seen it.(the date bug)

Rip guess there's no gaming till it's fixed. thanks for the heads up though.

You might want to check the story progression for the main characters, maybe you had to set them up for a date and then they fell out of the req. amount of love-points to get them to accept a date on friday. It's a wild guess on my part! It's the only thing i can think off that might (?) lock-up the friday night date. So you can try boosting love for some characters that might affect them. Fridays Romantic date night is 60 points iirc. You can try cheating for that.

I just update everything, compile, and upload it, that's it.
I haven't experienced a date bug myself, seems to work fine.

Here's the latest dev build with all the mods.

I have experienced the Friday Night Date Bug on all 3 of my last downloads, going to try this one today. It allowed first Friday Night Date and then always said I already have a date scheduled, but never executes a date

There should be a little ( ? ) in the bottom of the screen when you have a quest to do isnt there? I would be inclined to agree with you except multiple people seem to also have the issue (we cant all have missed it I hope). Either way I assume it will be fixed soon-ish.

Try this in the console;
$ mc.business.event_triggers_dict["dinner_date_scheduled"] = False

I wondered how long it would take for someone to suggest this
