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

[Tittybomb]

So I recently updated to the most recent version and there's something up with the map: it doesn't seem to want to load any locations around my current one. Whether I'm zoomed in or out, there's just nothing there. I can highlight buildings with my cursor and it'll tell me what's there, but they don't pop up on the map. If I scroll all the way out it'll highlight stuff across the city, but never anything nearby. Is there a fix for this? Or did I break something?

Hi!

As far as i understand from the interactions like 'excercise together' or 'practice language' only my character benefits (get stats)? (exept the private training and reading)

Someone know what actions or interactions raise the NPC companion 'Interpersonal skill'? (i only know the 'Train customer service' atm)

And if we here i think littlebit unfair, if i takeover an entertainment business (like a stripbar) only the technical (intelligence) and communicational (interpersonal) skills count. (Funny to a whore need to be a rocket scientist to success his work as an employee in a brothel, and meanwhile an ugly asexual nerd ass take from me a fat coffer of money per month )

Thx for the replys...

So I did what you said but nothing's changed. What happens is that the NPC's default doesn't change essentially. The stat itself defaults to 40 since what ever is generated is lower somehow, then the calculation for the stat appears to go off of what the preg info says the stat is instead of the actual stat is for some reason, which is somehow always "Vanilla" defaults or something, no matter what I set the default too in the lpstat file. After I change it manually it resets and corrects itself in the preg info and calculations. It's just really strange cause I'm pretty sure this was working in 3.19. I'm pretty convinced there's something on my end since everyone is giving the same advice and there isn't anything I can really do about it other than that work around I discovered with the fantasy races.

That might just be a bug; I've noticed similar behaviour when editing sexuality, for example. Sometimes edits just don't take, and that baffles me. You might get better luck posting to the support channel on the discord.

I see. Thanks.

Just your companions.

aww man

 

[rcbcgreenpanzer]

can you tell where to extract ?

They all go in the modules directory (LifePlay/Content/Modules). I'm going to add that to the readme.

I've been trying to put together a small scene to test API functions, but I can't get it to work. While the mod manager recognizes the mod, the action doesn't show up in the PC and triggering it via console doesn't do anything. Can any of you tell what's going wrong?

This may have been answered before but is there a way for us to make maps ourselves?

 

[croatia69]

aww man

You can do it like this:
1) Save your current character preset.
2) Start new game with new character.
3) Generate NPC and change that NPC into your character preset from 1) (Click on Load preset and choose character from 1)
4) Take that NPC as a companion to beauty shop and pay them plastic surgery.
5) Part ways with that NPC, then open Contacts and save that character as another preset
6) Return to your original game, and change apperance of your character in that game into a preset from 5)

Will the opportunity for the MC to have parents and dedicated scenes be added?

You can change the relationship of your relatives to Mum, Dad, Aunt ect, from the contacts page you just click on the relationship name and it will cycle through them, Scene wise its just changes some of the text it still uses the standard set of scenes.

There are dedicated scenes for the player's parents, though most if not all of them are part of the Mysterious Modder's Incest mod.

For any of you who are curious but not on the discord, the culprit was unix line endings. unix2dos cleared it right up. (Thanks again, NickNo; I felt like I was losing my mind.)

Hi! I just tried the game for the first time and I skimmed many pages on the forum.
I experienced a couple of graphic glitches:
- clipped clothes with other clothes or body parts (ie nipples) that can be seen passing through clothes. My understanding reading the forum is that this is one of the issues that will be "polished" in the next version
- if the map is zoomed out, there are diagonal bands all over the map that partially hide the map itself
Any solutions already available for these issues?

Other than this, I'm still understanding the game mechanics, as it is quite a big game!

Hi.
Some hints that might help:
-clipped clothes will be fixed in an upoming update this year, that is my understanding as well
-Try to play the game on the smallest map, disable shadows in the options. If it does not have anything to do with performane issue then I don't know. My problems went away after turning shadows off.

Sorry that is all that I can think of at the moment.

I have also a question though, maybe it is allready answered but I did not find anything:
Nick No's Mod for plastic surgery 1.6-> Every companion refuses to get lip injections.
Is my rapport etc not high enough maybe or is it something else why they don't want it?

Thanks for the tips, I'll try. ATM I selected a big city, so I will check if shadows are the cause of the issue and, if not, change city to a smaller one.

I can't find people talking about this by a search, but has anyone else got the little event where you get a message that you hear some people having sex and a popup whether you want to search for the source? It's all dialogue but it always ends with saying you don't have access to the area and that the sounds stop.

 

[fastblues]

Impressive work, really!

I have three questions at the moment:

1. What are the sliders in the clothes-section for?
2. Is it possible to fire staff or have you to deal with them, nevermind the game recommends to fire the clueless nuts?
3. Will the preferences of your char evolve over time or are they fix?

Mod update:

You must be registered to see the links

Standout changes:

• NPC_gives_birth_neutral:
  • Tries to detect if the kid should be your relative based on if either of their parents are:
    • Your parent => kid becomes your sibling
    • Your partner => kid becomes your stepchild
    • Your stepparent => kid becomes your stepsibling
    • Any other relative => kid becomes your cousin (default until I figure out a better solution)
  • Planned expansions:
    • Your grandparent => kid becomes your aunt/uncle
      • I don't know how to setRelativeType to aunt/uncle
    • Your aunt/uncle => kid becomes your cousin
      • I don't know how to detect if someone is the player's aunt or uncle.
  • Known issue: Exrelatives that are not your partner are treated as unrelated.
    • isRelativeType() doesn't work with exrelatives.
  • Known issue: NPC ParentChild relationships don't seem to stick.
    • I have no idea what's going wrong here.
• family discussion scenes (e.g. art_discussion_family):
  • Your family doesn't judge you for knowing less
  • If you know less than they do on the subject, you get a small stat boost
  • If you know more than they do on the subject, they get a small stat boost
• job interview
  • Adjusted the logic in an attempt to prevent failures if you have perfect stats.
  • Removed the penalty for having better stats than your interviewer.
• lesbian_sperm_donor:
  • Expand logic to allow one part

Full changes relative to the base game are detailed in both the repository README and each module's README. If you find a problem or have a recommendation, let me know.
