Yeah, Grifter was nice enough to PM me a copy, but I appreciate you uploading it nonetheless. It turned that I had already made the exact adjustments mentioned in the .txt when I last posted about having made it playable.

I'm also clearly too dumb to install more maps, so I'm stuck with Bath for now.
I'm using the flix mod manager and it feels like the folder structure isn't exactly right, leading to the game not reading the location where the new maps would be located.
maybe a dumb question but did you try to move to the other city directly in game?
(strg+c OR esc, then "Select City" brings you to the cty selection screen, where you can move to all instaled cities). Seeing your folder structure, you should be able to move...

Wonder what's up. Update was supposed to be the 28th for the general stuff/bugfixes AND rap music. Guessing the overwhelming number of bugs made it take longer (there was very little for the rap music part.)

Ok, this one is going to take a bit of explanation. First, Cortney Palm by request.

However, the lovely Ms. Palm has a variety of tattoos. I've tried adding a few of them to the skins, but they're... not great. So, my intention is to try to re-release her skins when I've done them more properly.

In the meantime, this zip package does include both plain skins (ie. no tattoos at all) and the works in progress, just in case it's important to anyone using the skins. Feel free to use whichever ones work for you, but be aware I'll be doing more work on this one.

Ah, unfortunately, none of those are really good for making presets. What's needed are headshots, facing as straight forward as possible, with nothing blocking the face anywhere (eg. hair) and the mouth closed. Higher resolution is better.

I know a couple of them, so I'll look around for headshots to work from, but if you could tell me the names of the others, I'll see what I can find.

Thank you for your concern, but no, I can neither start in the new maps nor move in game:

Have you ever tried to start the game directly (not using the launcher) and then to move? If yes, I would say there is something wrong with your installation.
Also I never installed cities with the launcher but loaded them directly from the mega site and put them manually in my Streetmap folder. It is not neccesaary to load all available cities, you'll never use them all. Pick only the cities you rellay want to play in.

If that doesn't work I would delete all folders in c:\\Users\Username\appdata\local\LifePlay\Saved except the SaveGames-folder without you have to start everything from the beginning) and then start the game without the launcher

Next step if no success: Make a backup from the GameSettings.sav in the SaveGames folder and delete the original. Start game...

Worst case scenario: Save your saves folder from the game (LifePlay/Content/Saves) and the SaveGames folder from AppData... and make a fresh install. Don't forget to save own files you eventually have in the Modules folder.

Good luck

Part of my mod is a preset to optionally change the eyecolor of the person one enthralls. I admit I never tested whether that .lpchar needs to be placed where the others are, but that's the orignial reason for that file structure.
Of course it is absolutely possible that I just messed up when creating the zip file I uploaded; I'll take a look after work today.

Edit: you're right, the double use of the A-Vampires_Unlife subdir is clearly redundant and not intended, and a result of me not paying enough attention of what the F I'm doing... story of my life.
Anyway, and moving very swiftly on, the mod should work regardless (it does on my 'puter at least), and if it doesn't just move all the folders and files one directory up and then delete the now empty A-Vampires_Unlife folder.
Lol, I always changed the folder structure manually so I can't say if it works otherwise. But afaik to be recognized by a game launcher you need to put the lpmod file in the first folder of your mod (Modules\A_Vampires_Unlife).

I am really new in modding and need a lot of help myself. Idk if you are even interested in someone taking a critical look at your mod (especially by a newbie) like I did :). So the following is simply meant well. You have to decide for yourself whether you can or want to do something with it.

For the Thrall_eyes: I took a look in other mods using the blendPreset function. I.e. in nn_PornEmpire\Scenes\nn_pe_scene_do_shooting_new.lpscene you'll find it in line 499 ff. The command is used same way than you did it (oc with other parameters). The fitting lpcharacter files are in a sub folder of nnPornEmpire\BodyStyles. So your thralled eyes should work fine if you use a folder structure like that instead of putting the lpcharacter in the modules folder directly.

There could be possible problems with your bull_employee.lpscene. You use the same filenames like in vin_Netori. That means your action/scene is used instead of the original files IF your mod is listed more bottom than the vin_Netori. Otherwise your scene never will appear. Idk if you wanted to replace the original scenes or if such a filenaming causes problems in general but (that was a hint of a very experienced modder) I ever would suggest to use unifique names for your mod. Still haven't seen if you did the same with other actions/scenes...

I use Notepad++ with RK's syntax highlighter for looking into files. Your scene isn't highlighted as it should be what means there will possibly be something wrong with your formats or a used command. I attach a screenshot (on the left your file, right side the original). But as said before, I am a newbie so I don't know what exactly could be the problem there.

Just checked, I actually have that slightly botched folder structure in my lifeplay game folder, the game recognizes the mod anyways.

I'm always interested in hints and tips, so all good!

Good to know, will keep that in mind should I release further updates, thanks!

That's actually more or less like I intended it to work. My version should trigger instead of the original only if my mod is listed in a higher priority than the netori module.

Thanks, will look into this. Didn't experience any problems with this scene while testing and playing myself, so I guess its something minor actually.

I don't think so, because imho you would need another skeleton base for that.
do you have any idea maybe the source of that picture,i forgot where i gotten it,or atleast possible game that could make character like that

If you'd had a pic where this girl is seen from the front with closed mouth, you could try to generate the needed files with FaceGen. Anyway it would be a lot different from the original - as said there would be needed another skeleton for really manga style girls.

Idk...

Is there anyone who can tell me, how I start a scene manually for testing it? It seems I am too dumb to find out.
(scene name is xsmaks_cuckolded_again.lpscene)
