Unreal Engine Abandoned LifePlay [v2023.04 Stable] [Vinfamy]
Anyone know of a way to increase the overall random scene spawn rate beyond the setting and individually editing each scene's file?
There's the ability to manually set the time out during the scene itself but I don't know if that function even works. When it was first added it didn't and I've never actually used it myself to see if it was fixed. What exactly are you trying to do that the global scene frequency modifier doesn't help?
Check 'scene frequency' in "gameplay settings" the bigger the number the more you should get.

Not sure why people seem to think a transition to UE5 is going to magically fix bugs and/or make the game automatically look better. Don't be surprised if a UE5 update ends up introducing more bugs instead.
I started a new game with the current build and I've noticed a problem in early gameplay - nothing happens. In my other save, I have family and poly partners all living in my house, and random events trigger nearly every day.
But in the new save.. nothing. Nothing happens. Even with two family members in the house.
I would say that the triggering of events is the one thing that needs to be overhauled in this game. When I look in the modules files, I see all these cool events that NEVER HAPPEN, often due to me not having a certain requirement - mood, masochism, whatever. I want these things to happen.
Sometimes my character sits at home, and I click watch tv, draw, house-cleaning, all day just waiting for an event to trigger... and nothing happens. It gets boring.
Worse, sometimes the event I get is: "My loved one is better at music than me. It's embarassing!" I don't care if they're better at music than me. I waited all day for an event, and this is what I get?
In this new save, I decided to join the university. You know what happens there? I go to class. I go home. The End. Nothing triggers. It's just doing classwork. I'm sure there's cool events tied to it... but I've never seen them.
I still love this game and think it's amazing, we just need some tweaking. I'm actually going to go back to my old save on an older build, as that has more stuff going on.
I think that when you start a new game, especially for new players, there needs to be more hand-holding. Pick a home (which sometimes is weirdly difficult, as almost no homes appear on the map in Bath). Pick family (if any). Pick a job/crime/model whatever. Make it very clear. And then make sure something cool happens every single day for the first few weeks to help the player get up and running.
If a player has poly as their top choice... then poly stuff should happen every day for the first month. If rap music is your top choice, then by god there better be a lot of rap battles going down in the neighborhood. If it's watersports, well then somebody better be peeing most days.
Also, there should always be a strip club, brothel, university, etc on the map. I literally started a game in London and there were no strip clubs at all. I had to create one, which took me a minute to figure out how to do.

The problem is that the player is the center of the lifeplay universe, Never will you stumble across an event underway between other npc's outside of the quests. It would be nice to encounter other things like women being humped in the park, Other things would be nice such as making the animations open to modders as well as the effects. This would open up the game to more variation.

Technically you do walk across a pornstar banging fans, which is similar to your example.

Just think that the player should be part of the simulation and not at the center of it.
2 updates in December & 4 updates in January instead
My apologies but I haven't finished working on v5.19 (BDSM) yet (it's a bit more work than the average update because of the new 3d assets and animations). I'll also lose a few days of development visiting my parents for Christmas so even if I rush and finish v5.19 on, say, 22 Dec, that would then leave me with virtually no development time for v5.20 (New Fantasy Race) with its original ETA of 28 Dec. Instead, the release schedule for the next 5 updates of December and January will be like this instead:
- v5.19 (BDSM): 28 December
- v5.20 (New Fantasy Race): 4 January
- v5.21 (Doggy): 11 January
- v5.22 (to be voted for in the next patrons' poll): 18 January
- v5.23 (to be voted for in the next patrons' poll): 28 January
So it's still 6 updates in 2 months as promised, just 2 in December (v5.18 already released and v5.19 on the 28th) and 4 in January instead of 3 and 3 to fit around Christmas.
Sorry again and thank you for your understanding!

Hi i wanted to ask if someone who is good at creating faces or importing picture can create a character for me?
Let's see if they are a little more open-minded and add bondage content for submissive men and Femdom content in the next BDSM update.
Downloaded Radeck's Remake of LifePlay ... is it possible to somehow combine the scenes of the remake with the original ones?
I think there's something wrong with my player gives birth file. Whenever I play as a female, and give birth, I get the scene that says the baby was born without knowing who the father is, even though the player says who is the father.
