Unreal Engine Abandoned LifePlay [v2023.04 Stable] [Vinfamy]

[Joshua Tree]

I'm working on the criminal career path right now for the next update. So a cop / vigilante career path some time in the future makes sense I suppose.
I've been adding new career paths for the last 3 updates though, so after v1.12 release, I'll probably focus the next few after that to something non-career-related. But then, after that, I could come back to adding new carrer paths. I added your request to my Github tracker to remind myself then.
I'm personally quite into the 'fallen heroine' porn trope myself. Besides, I do want to add some more proper combat to the game. These do fit in quite well with what you describe.

Hmm,. well if you want to add some more combat and "heroish" stuff to the game, probably want some career that would go alongside that. Maybe something with sports, trainer, gymnast, martial arts, idk. Don't really see a chubby stay at home mom, go out and beat villains at night, lol.

Being a vigilante and patrol the streets after dark and then maybe get into fights based on random encounters and how you deal with them. Beat up drug dealers for their money, lol, idk.

Maybe not as extreme as in this hehe, @

one weird thing I've noticed is that it's much easier to have sex with low pervert women then it's with high pervert women

also having a sugar babe doesn't check for the age of the MC, I once ended up with a sugar babe that was older then I was

edit: I also never got the number of my sugar babe so I couldn't check anything about her untill I cheated by unlocking all contacts

A high pervert woman doesn't necessary mean she is a nymphomaniac that nail anything that walk on 2, 4 or whatever how many legs. Think higher perversity should be more about be more open to kinks, fetish's and more adventurous sex, positions and so on. Where one with low perversity would be less open and sex would be more of the vanilla type.

Also, I didn't think have a "sugar daddy, mommy, babe (whatever) was age specific but more about you trade certain favors for them to take care of you, gifts, money, whatever. Just another form of prostitution.

well I'm currently not talking about that though
with low perversion women you can take them to the alley, the sex shop and the porn cinema, all of which have the potential to end up in sex, and those fire frequently

with high perversion women I've only ever seen the option to pretend to be together at the swinger's club when you're on a date and to call one of your friends in a FWB situation, personally I've seen both of these once

so if you want to have sex pick up a low perversion woman

also someone close to you will specificly call you out on the sugar babe relationship with "she's way too young for you"

I'm not saying that the things you're saying now aren't correct in how the real world works, just that it doesn't work like it probably should ingame

i agree this is currently an imbalance. Purely because I did spend a whole update a few versions back on corruption content, hence why so many scenes lead to innocent girls being corrupted and having sex. I'll probably need a 'naughty girl' update to add the scenes to balance this out.
I'll add some age conditions to the sugarbabe scene.

Maybe certain sex scenes such s rough ones would only be unlocked if perversity reach a certain level? Also for later if more kinky stuff get added, bdsm, whatever... fetish's. Dress up your partner in a gimp suit!, lol.

The following maps have been done and will be available for v1.12 (to be released this weekend) onwards:

• Benidorm
• Mislata
• Pre-Saint-Gervais
• Saint-Mande
• Monaco
• Pateros
• Macau
• West New York
• Maywood
• Sunny Isles Beach
• Cambridge (MA)
• Central Falls

Many people have requested smaller maps to be added as opposed to the current selection of mostly huge mega-city maps. The 12 above are a mix of small towns, suburbs to big cities, micro-cities, small tourist destinations, and university towns. Therefore, they're very small in size (most are less than 10 square miles) but they all have decent populations so the maps are not just empty - they still have plenty of buildings for you to play with (especially if you use the 'Randomize Unknown Buildings' feature).

These maps may be of particular interest to those with weaker PCs struggling with FPS while playing LifePlay as they're very performance-friendly and takes up very little memory.

Keep your requests coming!

FYI @SpartanF21

idk if it planned or in the pipes.. but...

Could be a pimp or a "madame", become a profession/work? Like run a brothel, escort service or something, and then hire other npc's you connect to, to work there? I don't mean by just run up to someone and ask if they want to spread their legs for money, but maybe through coerce, persuasion, and so on. Could be a lot of interesting even't and things around.

- How to set it up, get a location and so on.
- Hire/find workers, security, pay off the law, bribes whatever.
- Provide the clients with kinks and fetish's that satisfy their needs and desires.

Currently you can pimp by asking your companion to become sex worker. The whole sex work / pimping content in the game only took one update so far so I will definitely expand on this in the future.
I saved your suggestions to the Github to-do list for when I do expand on this.

Unfortunately, 5 (was 6) out of my total of 19 patrons had their payments declined for this month. With such a high % of declines, I'm quite certain it's something wrong with Patreon's system, not anything wrong with your cards.
If your payment was declined, I believe Patreon would have notified and e-mailed you about it and how this can be resolved. They also explain it in

. Hopefully, by the end of the month, all the declined payments will go through. Thank you for your time and patience (I know updating payment methods / calling up your bank isn't the most exciting thing in the world).

Patreon's stance on declined payments is "While you have a declined payment for a creator, you will not have access to their patron-only content until you resolve that payment.". However, I think this is completely unfair: why should my patrons be 'punished' for either:

1. Patreon's charging system not working as intended, or

2. PayPal/ Their bank being overzealous with fraud prevention

Therefore, I just want to adopt this personal 'policy' for the LifePlay project:

Patrons with declined payments at the start of a month are still considered as my patrons for that month and can still enjoy all their rewards while the issue is being resolved.

For example, this weekend when v1.12 is released, your chosen name will still appear on the game's credit roll even if your declined payment isn't resolved yet. Rewards like priority requests, higher vote weighting and Discord role will still be available to you while the issue is being resolved.

Let's just hope Patreon gets their act together and this doesn't happen every month. Again, I know it can be a pain to try to resolve your declined payment so I thank you for your time and patience.

Damn son

 

[meh65]

Tell people to go to patreon website, they are having people update payment methods for tax purposes. Its a bit annoying, they want zip code and state. IDK what is going on there, they already tried dicking their customer base over once not sure what they are trying now.

You can make requests anywhere. Here is okay.
You can edit NPC appearance by going into Contacts menu (hotkey: P), find the poor girl, then select 'edit appearance (cheat)'
You can change and loosen the conditions of scenes and reduce its timeout by going into LifePlay/Content/Modules/ and find the lpscene of that scene and edit it with any text editor
Or if you just want for all scenes to happen more frequently, Esc> Settings > increase scene frequency
And yeah, criminal and business career paths have their own scenes - not as many as the office career path yet of course

I would like to see Lincoln, Nebraska involved. Relatively small city, but not tiny - and has a major university there.

In addition, I've downloaded a few cities to look at, but I'm not sure where to put them in the file structure. Where will the game look for them?

Thanks!

Added your request to the next batch for map requests
maps go inside LifePlay\Content\Heavy\StreetMap
just look at the default CentralLondon map as an example on how the 4 files included in each package are placed

1)Is it possible to make anyone from my contact an employee of my business.
Exp-can I make any doctor my employee for my business?
2)Whenever I increase some NPC's appearance or make someone fat,
their cloths seems to torn up or something ,is it for the graphics texture?
3)Is it possible to remove any business place from quick menu without closing down any business?
I took over a lot of business & annoyingly they all shows up on my quick or favorite menu :\

I will add 1) in the next version. I wanted to do it this version actually, but ran out of time and didn't want to rush something that's potentially buggy if not careful
On 2) Yeah, it's very tricky to implement a system where the clothes fit all character shapes without getting screwed up. Hopefully, when we get the new character models, the cloth morphs can also be redone that doesn't get messed up so easily like they can be right now.

Is it beyond the scope of the game to have stats like attractions and report apply between NPC's?

Not beyond the scope at all of game, it just would take a decent time investment from me to implement.
I do want to do it at some point in the future though, but just no ETA I can promise right now.
