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

[Grim]

I feel like most games on this site suffer from having updates so far between I mostly forget about them, so I never thought I'd see a game I think suffers from updating too often.
Like, too many updates that add a button or two with some lines of dialogue and that's it. Like that young and old update where literally the only thing that changes was the age in the bio, 18yr old still looked almost 40 anyways lmao

Part of it is due to it being a solo developer, but either scenario can happen when development depends upon Patreon donations. Either the developer is incentivized to stretch out the period between updates to keep the monthly donations coming in, or as is the case with this game there's the incentive to do frequent, insubstantial updates because the donations allow people to commission new scenes/maps/animations.

The resulting scenes are usually half-baked and often have bugs in them which cause them to not even run correctly. In the last several updates I've found scenes that are missing at least one closing quote somewhere which fucks up all the code below where it should be. One of the recently commissioned animations is buggy as well.

Seems like there isn't enough time for a lot of the stuff to actually be tested before it's released, so the bugs just keep piling up.

Yeah, it's a thing. Apparently there's going to be an engine update coming out in the next few updates as well. Hoping that he spends a bit more time on QA for that.

The MEGA link in that post still works. although the original has disappeared. The mod itself is scene edits like requesting certain scenes not show up as much or some having their conditions changed. So....each time Vinfamy changes or creates scenes I then edit them again.

Sorry I didn't think anyone wanted it...I'll leave it up and maybe the OP link can be changed to this post.

Remember if anyone wants scene's changing or to be created link me. This isn't my main thing though so updates won't be massively frequent.

Next scene edit and creation is later this month when Vinfamy releases the new Scene commissions.

The mega link is broken, how can i get this scenes?

I stopped doing them and moved onto commissioning Vinfamy directly for a while. Sorry but I don't have them anymore.

I 100% agree with your reasoning

 

[ThorsHammers]

How do you get a condom to break? is there a location in one of the files to set the %.

 

[dividesense]

There's a sabotage condom button during sex. Is that what you're referring to?

 

[ThorsHammers]

No, I have seen that button and if you select it you lose 5 Karma, It is like when you have sex it says the condom did not break and I read on one of the updates that they can and I've yet to ever see one break is there a file location where that % can be changed? Thanks

 

[SmanMax]

They can. It's very unusual, but I saw it happen once.

It's not part of a scripted event though; it's probably baked into the code that defines the sex minigame.

How long would it take to make a custom scene in the game? I'm looking at all the scene files and it looks deceptively easy to make one but I'm sure it's harder than it looks.

It depends on the complexity of what you're trying to accomplish and how familiar you are with the script syntax and API. Basic scenes don't take long to write once you're familiar with both of those. The API might not always provide the exact functions that you need so you occasionally have to get clever with what's available which can take additional time trying to achieve what you want.

 

[straydogg]

Soooo figured this out by trial and error, THIS is a Vampire dog, Yes I said a Vampire dog, male Vampire Dog, it fucks everything, male female trans horse and other dogs no animation for the animal to animal but it goes by the sex timer just as well, it does all animations for the dog sex and can be a female dog so males can have a go if they choose, What im tring to say IS you can PLAY as a dog for the Main Charater so instead of being a male female or trans charater YOU can play as a DOG, and you can make the human world Yours if you so choose,, so if you want to PLAY as a dog and rule the humans try it out would make a great Police dog story HINT HINT THIS MUST GO in as it is set up OR ITFUKN wont WORK unzip, and it goes lifeplay content saves 1 charater and session character DONOT get this wrong or it fukn well wont work it is folder set to auto load to the proper place just the two files but they MUST go in as they are in order or so it does for the game i have set up, like i said not many animations other than the ones that the dog uses inthe game i fuckn have a lot of fun with it the dog is a vampire so its easier to get to know some one better if not it can be intergrated into the game if so choose JUst dont loose those two files OrYUR SOL, oh and if you use the hypnotize script i edited you can enslave the human world andrule the world as a dog OOps forgot the Main script just unzip the files will go to where they are intented

I suggest modifying scenes that already exist first. It's a good way to start getting a feel for what the tags mean, and how they work. There's documentation in the game files as well, but it's dry reading. I had better luck with it when I went back after I'd been fiddling around with modifying scenes for a little while.

But it's not like CODE or anything. It's all pretty plain-English, once you learn the basic syntax.

Is it safe to use some of the mods listed in this thread? Many of them are from/last updated at 2019.

It depends on the mod, but it's fair to assume that any mods that old probably won't work correctly. Basically anything made prior to 3.0 is going to be a gamble.

That was so long ago that Vinfamy actually used to respond to people in this thread.

It's not deceptively at all. The game is intended to be easy to mod.

Pretty much this.
I'm not a coder at all, but after I checked the files, I was on the fence -like you-
Well, no. It's actually that easy if you have some coding skills, and moderately easy for someone like me.

Just take a look first.
Pick a scene you know well (something simple), and go read the code.
You'll quickly figure it out (considering you already think is easy, I guess you have certain coding knowledge).
Start with little changes, little timing out, or who does what to who.

Personally, I find much easier to look at scenes I'm interested, at tweak them to fit my tastes, or "hey, this scene matches X idea I have!".

New player_gives_birth scene.

Content:
- Up to five offspring can be carried.
- Sexual intercourse with creatures (offspring can be humans or creatures).
- In addition to dogs and horses, tentacles can now be born.
- Incest (ex-relatives are treated as relatives).

Other changes:
- I hope I have fixed all the bugs from my previous version.
- The scene has been restructured (to make it clearer and more compact than before).

I would appreciate feedback and bug reports if any are found.
Otherwise, I wish you a lot of fun with this scene.
