Unreal Engine Abandoned LifePlay [v2023.04 Stable] [Vinfamy]
You probably try running the unassembled files from source code.
If you wanna play just forget the whole source material and download the game itself from here, exactly from the first page of this thread.
Major Feature upgrade today 
! BPRO MOD PACK
version 0.0.3
Major Update May4,2024
Read changes here:
------------------------------------------------------
This mod started as just some simple additions to NickNo's HomeExpander but it quickly grew way beyond that, so let me briefly explain the major features i can remember...
Ive also decided to include a few Bonus mods / Bonus downloads as well separate from my core mod :
Also, keep in mind that i have made this using game version 23.7 (the version available for download here most recently) so I can not guarantee how this mod will work with any older version of the game.
Installation instructions are included in the readme file inside my mod folder after you download it but its pretty straight forward, and i put the "Replacement" files you need to copy in an easy location to find, and I separated the ThirdParty mods that i changed as well incase you feel you need to remove some of my changes to them (like if you already modded them yourself) However, you will probably need to leave nn_HomeExpander in place or I cant guarantee how much of my mod will break lol
Also, i have probably forgot to mention some features here so if you see something you think i should add to the information in this post, let me know. Arigatogozaimasu
I think that about covers the gist of it for now. WARNING i have not done extensive bug testing so you are very likely to encounter some. please report them to me and I will do what i can to fix them. also if you have suggestions im happy to hear them
ENJOY!
PS: Any modders who want to modify or use my mod or parts of it in their own GO FOR IT! Consider this official permission to do absolutely anything you want with my uploads, consider them open source

I just uploaded my entire current thirdparty mod pack (practically every mod possible, including entire Ravenger Scenes and all the Radeck mods[nonOverhaul]) as I am currently using them on game v23.7 so if you just downloaded the game this is basically everything in one place
(see post above this)

wow, tysm. i will try itI just uploaded my entire current thirdparty mod pack (practically every mod possible, including entire Ravenger Scenes and all the Radeck mods[nonOverhaul]) as I am currently using them on game v23.7 so if you just downloaded the game this is basically everything in one place
(see post above this)
Found a few more bugs and updated the mod post with new file copies for the Core mod and Devtool mod, and i updated the Info on the mod post because i forgot to mention an entire minor mod feature
Is anyone working on a translation? Will it be in German at some point? Or could someone explain to me how to translate the game? So without dialogues.
No. You can use the translation button within the game to translate the actual textlines. All scene dialogues was written in english and all mods too. Also game has no localisation options, from this hardcoded elements remain english. You could translate thousands of lines within lp files under modules folder manually if you really want to do.
a real shame. It is absolutely inconvenient to use the translator in the game. It would be a lot of help to me if the clickable elements were translated. and is it just too complicated for that? Or I'll ask, where can I find the files for these elements? everything in the module folder?
Sry, but I don't feel that way. LifePlay is a free opensource game (not a commercial one) what made by one man dev (who was from Britain btw). So why would it be expected to be translated into several languages?
But everyone has the opportunity to modify and expand it, and if you will, you can translate the dialogues within the files under the modules, including mods what you put there. Also you can find the documentation about modding under docs folder. All other elements like the GUI elements, buttons, tooltips, etc is hardcoded and remain as it is.
(A little problem can occur if a game or a mod gets an update you should translate that before you use. This is the main reason why nobody wrote a translated version until now.)
Unfortunately when game devs dont use the industry standard style Localization system, its very hard to translate anything. and in this case there is also an entire sub level of mods as well and the modders arent using Localization either (it would probably be difficult to convince them to do so LOL)
Translating this game right now would first of all require going to the actual source code and manually changing everything (or creating localization system to replace it?)
Maybe someone someday will have the interest but I think i wouldnt hold my breath on this one until some mod team really makes an updated fork / overhaul
its amazing that the autotranslators even exist. cant even count how many games I never would have got to play with them. ive manually translated some old RPGmaker games by hand before, ive done CC for movies before too. Let me tell you.. that is not a fun process. and it takes FORever. lol
but i say, if you want something bad enough, make the time to figure out how to get it

separate note, does anyone know if this game actually keeps track of days or like what day it is or what the player's birthday is etc ??

thank you guys for the words. I'll see if I can translate anything myself. I just have to search through all the files until I find the right one. As I said, I would only translate the clickable and selectable things.
The player's birthday is treated as Jan 1.Unfortunately when game devs dont use the industry standard style Localization system, its very hard to translate anything. and in this case there is also an entire sub level of mods as well and the modders arent using Localization either (it would probably be difficult to convince them to do so LOL)

Ty and i just realized the date is in fact in the top right corner and on the save file lol
now i just gotta see if i can access in the mod code
Yes there will be translations released but not until after my team have fixed the current version of the game
Dev has disappeared. Probably won't be anything as he hasn't been heard from in like a year.
it is technically open source tho. so its a little difficult to truly classify as abandoned
