I come back to this game from update to update, but for each step forward it makes, the problems it has amplifies.
My main concern is the UI. Click menus shouldn't need a scroll and even less a search bar, they are used for contextual uses, not an universal access. The best case here would be to add a side UI, with all the choices available for the current place (When you are at the cafe, you can drink, socialize, use bathroom,...). Or if you really want to see the options before moving, use more sub menus, like with the modeling or criminal options (side note, the scroll shouldn't stay at the same place for the transition). Use windows' basic right click as en example, or the sims if you want something with longer text.
But the worst is during the sex actions. I don't want to spend more time selecting what to see than watching it. Here again, a side menu is needed, but some randomization or context would help.
I'm not trying to piss on the game, I want this game to be good too (I already modded the scenes to make a world with only woman and futa work with all scenes), but the UX is so bad I'm getting annoyed more than I can enjoy it.
Vinfamy, if you need help with the UX, I can discuss that with you (I work in gamedev too)

Okay, so after some updates, the problem is still there for me! The game stay freezed and does nothing until i change the active window ( use the ALT+TAB) . I like this game , even when ppl say its not rly easy to understand, but this bug is rly rly starting to piss me off :/
Cant help with a fix sorry, but I can say I have seen this happen to mine. But only when its run in windowed mode (Alt-Ent), and for some reason it looses focus on the game, may help someone else know whats happening.
Well, i did try even a full screen play, still nothing. it is compatible with windows 10 ? or not? xD I still cant figure out a solution about it.... even tried to search on google about unreal engine games... no resolve... i will still wait XD
of course it's compatible with Windows 10, I use Windows 10 myself.
It's some software you have installed that's conflicting with it

Strangley enough I always have problems running unreal games, Except this one. and every unreal game I have run, tries to turn on my VR headset, again except this one. Suppose there is something diffrent here.
Try turning up job experiance or performance think its one of them.

The sliders in this game need to be tweaked. I was using the safe sliders, never going over 1, and your models can still end up clipping all over the place. What looks fine in the creator can end up looking like a monstrosity in certain positions.
They'd have a better clue if you showed the running processes. However the two that i see that can cause conflicts are both instances of Cheat Engine. If something got locked in memory from a prior session then it's possible that'd conflict with WDM.
It's not the morph targets. It's some modelling flaw in the original Daz meshes themselves ( maybe a handful of misplaced verticles somewhere underneath the skin so we don't notice with the default preset), unfortunately I'm just not good enough at 3d modeling to figure out which verticles and how to fix them. If any experienced modelers know what's going on, I'll be more happy to fix it.
yes, as far as I'm aware, the mods are compatible with each other. They're optional though, not part of the base game.
don't need to download all maps, in fact, you don't need to download any map at all (they're optional download).The base game already comes with the default London map.
If this is your first time trying the game, no need for any mods or maps. Just download the full download (1.3 gb) and play
As Vinfamy said one of my mods is for a very specific purpose and not needed, the other will be updated within a couple of days, so best play without them.

Hey!
I was playing with the modding system (i'm currently making one, i might share it if i don't get lazy before having a playable version...) and i noticed three"problems" :
-When you use choices, the scene will be broken if you don't put an empty line between your choices and your "If".
-If i have tabulations in my script, it may break the scene too. (Thanksfully, Notepadd++ can "Replace all" in two clicks)
-I noticed that stalk_facebook.lpscene in vin_Base works only with "Impregnated" npc. (Yep, it's not used right now... I randomly stubbled on it and got curious
)
Also, if i want to share my mod, do you have a "happy place" to upload it or do i post it here?
PS: Is there a way to make "nested menu" like "sexwork"?

The spaces and tabs thing is mentioned in explanation.lpscene I think, but yeah, these are very common problems people run into so I probably should make people aware of this more somewhere
Impregnated is just any NPC passed from the game's hard code into a lpscene. It was orignally used for pregnancy hence the name.
Just upload it on here and I'll link to it from the OP and Discord
Thank you for modding the game
the NTR mod doesn't seem to really do anything.. is it currently broken, or am i missing something? npc's will hit on my dates, but nothing ever comes of it
