Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025.04]

[ibnarabi]

In my first post, in discussing the errors Ren'py tossed while recompiling the '.pry' files into '.rpyc' files, it is implicit Ren'Py seeks to run the compiled code, not the source code. Despite your opinion, we're not all idiots. The second post was to assure players that breaking out the individual compiled modules from the totally compiled game, would not impede game play.

What bugs from the August version do you refer to?

I fail to understand the tone of your posts. You seem to imply that those who do not follow your example are somehow 'lessor'. Not everyone wishes to do as you do, and they are entitled to their reasoning. They need not answer or explain that reasoning to you. Judging by recent posts, not everyone is overjoyed with the recent mods. I have offered those who wish to do so, a way to open up for inspection or modification, a version they may wish to stick with, without interacting extensively with GIT. What is your problem with that?

Seriously? You are wasting a lot of time when you could just clone the develop git repository, not pull the mods, then compile. These bugs;

Is there a way to influence which personalities spawn in the sandbox? Some of the 'added' personalities from mods are way over the top (especially for the start of the game)

You can turn enable/disable most of them from the mod settings menus in your bedroom.

You really are snide. Learning is not a waste of time.

Honestly, nobody ever asked for Linux support. I just compiled a new build, here you go.

The latest developer build, as of 10 minutes ago, compiled with the current mods -> Virgin Tracker, Kaden, Kina, moresomes, Zenpak, and the RealPornMod; already integrated within, with Linux support.

This one has a weird bug where if you go on a dinner date, it locks you out of those altogether. Always says you have one planned and can't plan a new one for the next Friday

 

[ibnarabi]

Is the only alternative for the sex scenes's visuals the real porn mod, or are there any other mods?

That's it.

Doing it the very hard way isn't learning efficaciously

I only see Alpha and Cougar in there, neither of those are a problem . I am talking about all the Characters that are overly thirsty: Pornstar, Tsundere, Kuudere, whatever-dere's. These throw themselves at MC from the time you click on start. I think its a rather poor fit and those personalities should be a re searchable option (like bimbo-mind-alteration) and not ' naturally' occuring.

There isn't a toggle option for the VT mod stuff,yet. It's being worked on.

 

[themagiman]

When is there going to be a mod that allows us to distribute serum through the city like the game center? I don't like having to manually secretly give the serum to each NPC one by one.

Or maybe a brainwashing mod that allows you to take in certain NPCs and you can brainwash them in your lab/dungeon until they have a new "drone" personality?

New content that helps move the game forward instead of making it go slower sounds exciting to me.

I assume you cannot delete parts of VT right? its either the entire mod or none of it? Im trying to remove anything blatanlty OP while keeping the extra events and things.

 

[Elkrose]

Is there any way to turn off the "cheat serums" the VT mod puts in the game, the "ROS3..." ones? Is there a toggle to disable them? Failing that is there a command I can enter in the console to take them out of the game? Failing that, is there a way to remove the mod from the precompiled pack[*]?

They're disruptive to the early game. In particular, they really mess up the challenge of designing drugs for contracts, which is one of the core parts of the game loop.

[*] Huge Thanks for doing this by the way. Greatly appreciated.

that will be fixed in the next update VT 4.0

yups, give me a few days and I'll be releasing VT 4.0... It will bring quite a few things to the game. Including the ability to turn off the VT Hud, icons, etc and the OP Serums dialed down so they don't affect normal game play, however the serums themselves are still OP

thanks for reminding me to remove those from the next update. Those were originally set in to make sure the personalities got debugged faster.

I noticed a bug where once you go on a romantic dinner date, the option is then locked forever.

I have accumulated unspent points in some section. Is it possible to somehow transfer them to another section where I can successfully spend them on my own development, even with losses. I agree to get only 1 for 3 points - so be it. But at least somehow, instead of nothing.

You can do that manually with cheats if you want to, but I'm pretty sure there's no official way.

It a great way to break the game at the moment. It makes your daughters start at age 18, so you can legally rape them without feeling like a pedo.


If there are mods that don't break the game I would include them in that All in One dev version I post.

Actually daughters start earlier as 18 in the mod, but setting them born at 18 makes mod work with last AIO and legally keeps every char above 18 in game. Biggest advantage of the mod though it added your daughters to the game and could interact with them. Mod is outdated and does not work indeed with latest dev branch, unless someone is willing to work on it.

 

[ibnarabi]

This is a clean compile of the latest developer code without any mods, pc and linux.

I like having the option for all these things in the game one way or the other: a toggle in the cheat menu or, and i think this is the coolest way to do it: as a mind altering serum you can research in the game.
Either way, the mods provide more options, which is always appreciated and being able to easily mix and match for personal preference even more.
Being able to toggle stuff on or off also really helps with finding the stuff that is busted or disruptive.

This was tops. It works straight out of the box under Liunux. Xcept for the Realporn mod for some reason won't trigger. And I am still too much of a Ren' Py and Linux noob to figure out why. The files are there and the webp vids do play standalone.
If anyone has any idea or similar issues I would like to hear them.
