I posted an update to mine literally a few days ago, on this very thread, and it should be completely compatible with both 15.0 and 15.1. I haven't had the chance to play 15.1 yet but remember it is both, free, and a beta. All the negative people in the thread should remember Vren is still just developing the base systems, he's barely started the story portions.
i have no problem with the dev working on the game mechs but the problem is there is so many issues with this game that i think he should work out the bugs first instead of reworking everything else it is kinda unplayable right now

Quick question:
Has this game finally become playable without the need of a degree in aerospace engineering?

Quick Question: Are there other more fit/younger characters in the game besides the chubby one in the sample pictures? Or is that the general form and shape of the others. Not a fan of Big Tits and Bit Asses.
Oh and if there is: Is there a way of circumventing the chubby girl?

Alright, give these a try.
Three files.
One is the Mod Core, which is basically a repurposing of my PC mod. Got rid of the fetish toggle stuff, Ill revisit that at a later date. Creates the PC in the players room, which has the functions to initialize mods.

Second file is my growth serum mod file, modified to work with the mod core. Basically just append the event to mod_list rather than crisis_list, and no weight is necessary, unlike crisis_list. Initializes via the PC in the MC's room.

Third file was a 3rd dummy file I made just to test that the mod_list and initialization functions would work with multiple mods. Once initialized via the PC, it creates a "masturbate" action in the mall, along with a little scene to go with it. Its meant to be funny. I almost quoted Monty Python in it, but I resisted the urge. Also, I can personally make an appearance in the scene, just for laughs. The file also can be used as an example for how to create new location actions or serum traits to function with the MOD_CORE.

The MOD_CORE and growth_serum mods are NOT compatible with my original pc and serum mods. So make sure to remove those and start a new game if you have to.

The only thing I dislike is it isnt possible to use the mandatory_crises_list instead of crisis_list to run the MOD_CORE intialization, because the mandatory_crises_list doesnt exist until you start a new game (it's an attribute of mc.business and the object is created when you start a new game. crisis_list is initialized at init 1 in crises.rpy, so exists at game launch. This means the player is forced to wait and get lucky with the crisis event to initialize the MOD_CORE and I see no way around that.
you said it creates a pc in the MC room i dont see it at all how do i access this and how do i use these mod files

iirc, there are three body types in both the random generated characters and the story characters. There are also three skin tones. You can change any of the story characters by editing their values and change any of the random generated characters by changing the values to a weighted list that only hits the one you dislike one time out of a thousand (or even less often). Theoretically you can write the shape or skin tone you don't like out of randomly happening ever, but I have tried this over several versions of the game and they still show up for some reason. More reliable to set it to happen less often with weighted lists. The file to edit to do this is random_lists.rpy in the game folder.

There are three body types, thin, standard, curvy and ca. 13 different breast sizes from A to FF. You do not need to interact with chubby characters ( there may be some in the world, but who you hire is entirely up to you ). There are also serums you can create that will increase / decrease breast size depending on what you want.
Images in this thread are very outdated, but the game's characters still aren't very boner inducing. Fun to play around with for a while regardless.
Here is an example picture of the main character's sister.

Post errors to the patreon. Vren doesn't come here, so if he doesn't know about it, he can't fix it.

I kinda wish that he stayed with Honey Select (though I know a lot of people don't like those models) and that the game seemed more of a direct sequel instead of what seems like a similar story by the same person. As it is I think the game is a little too complex.

I like honey select models too! The First Game was also great and i had a lot of fun playing it. I think the idea to have more things to manage and therefore immerse more is cool but it has its downsides too if you are not willing to commit hours of initial getting to know the game. Most Games that i really liked and loved so far had actually very few options and were lovable through a nice build up and beautiful models.

Damn what up with the game everyone wants to quit all the time no matter how happy they are.
And ever time someone wants to talk about it i get an error
Quitting is mostly based on just 3 factors: wages, happiness and obedience. There is an expected wage for each character that is based on their attributes and skills, and if you raise the stats and skills of the character through certain serums, training events, etc, then their wage can be far below what is expected. If their happiness is as high as you say (100 is average baseline, so you want 200+ before you can actually say they are really happy), then your problem is likely either their obedience or their wages. You need to be paying them around $15 a day higher than their expectation for their skills and abilities for that to become a significant added factor to their happiness. If you are under-paying for their expectations, then you'll be wanting happiness to be at least 400 or more to even start to cancel that out.

One of the first modifications I make to the game each update is to have a chat option that automatically gives them a raise to exactly $15 above their expected one. That way when their stats or skills change, I can instantly adjust their wage to make them ecstatic about work. That simply makes it easier - without the modification you'll simply have to do it all manually and work out for yourself what wage will keep them working happily.

Of course, if their preferences mean they hate the type of work I'm asking them to do, hate uniforms and skirts and I force them to wear a uniform skirt, those dislikes are going to keep making them unhappy no matter what the wage.

There are 3 basic body types in the game and it chooses randomly which any girl has at the start. With the appropriate mod (available in the OP section), you can edit this for any girl at any time you are in the same location, along with changing their breast size, hair, skin tone, etc.

thx dude! she looks more like my type of woman, but as you said: she also doesnt look very "boner inducing" ^^ (had a laugh when i read that).
A litte more focus on the girls face and less on the myriad of choices would do wonders for this game.

There is a LOT of porn out there. Like, more than a single person could look at in an entire lifetime. If I just wanna squeeze one out I can get that done easy enough. I don't go to H-games for that. I go to H-games because I like games and using porn as part of the legitimate mechanics of the game is a strong way to motivate play.

I'm not gonna shit talk anybody who just wants to play a static novel or a basic point and click with some rudimentary stats to lock out some events. You can make a quality story in those games, and you can include some great porn. That being said, I prefer a good game with porn to good porn with a game.

This game is currently light on content and what is there is unpolished. I can see why that would make people not care for it. Still, I appreciate that they're focusing on developing core mechanical systems and expanding play first.

Is there a thread where we can share our costumes?
It would be nice to share costumes so others can use them for their games.

you said it creates a pc in the MC room i dont see it at all how do i access this and how do i use these mod files
The mod is the beginning of a mod architecture that will hopefully be utilized in the future. Due to the way the game is coded, its very difficult to add some kinds of mod content to the game without overwriting or modifying core game files, which then requires a new version to be released each time Vren releases a new version.

My MOD_CORE is what I hope to be a tool used by other modders in the future to add new content to the game. In its simplest form, it requires a randomly occuring crisis event that adds the PC to the "Do something..." menu in the MC's bedroom. Once the PC exists, it can then be used to load new mods into the game without the use of random events. Currently the only mod that exists are the two that I attached with the MOD_CORE. The first creates two new serums. The second creates a new action. Both are meant to be examples of HOW to code these things. Honestly they dont really add much new content of their own, but are meant to be tools and examples for future content.

I hope that explains it.

Short version: you just have to keep waiting until a specific random event occurs. By default, this has a 10% chance of occuring during any time period. This is best done with a new game, due to there being a very small number of crisis events that can happen at the start of the game. It might happen immediately, or it might take several game days. Unfortunately there's no way to change this at this time.
