Question.
I wanna change some files in the game for certain mods but i cant open them because my pc says i need an app to open that kind of file (WIndows 10) files are LPMOD so i really dont know what i need to open them
You can open them with any text editor, so notepad or notepad++ will work

No I am not Raddeck!

I'm not sure I understand how it's done, I'll do more tests, what I've done doesn't work.
In the mod pregnancy of rcbc, there are ()
(Actor:attractiontoplayer + Actor:rapportwithplayer) > 60
Not supposed to be brackets
[Actor:attractiontoplayer + Actor:rapportwithplayer] > 60
I'll take your word for it. Nah, actually..., I believe you.

But for the love of Cthulhu, Deep Thought, and Sliced Bread, what are you asking about?!?

On the other hand, you can edit the timers (usually at the bottom of the scene file) and increase them massively.
For example, if it reads
timeout (100)
you can increase it to 1000 or 10000, which will extend the time it triggers.
You can also use timeoutPrecise(100) which pretty much guarantee's you won't see the scene again for at least 100 in-game hours. Although when doing timeouts I wouldn't go over 8760 as that's how many hours are in a year the game seems to loose track of if it's beyond that.

timeoutPrecise() only behaves differently from timeout() if you've set your scene frequency setting to something other than 1. Otherwise their behavior is the same. The scene frequency value acts as a modifier for timeouts, and timeoutPrecise() just ignores it.

Edit: modifier, not multiplier. timeout values are divided by the scene frequency

A few more questions:
-Have there been made newer mods in the past few months? The link in this thread has been updated last time almost a year ago.
-Is there a mod where you can book very expensive escort girls or try to start an escort girl business?


Try this It's a direct download link. The actual mod is the rk_Sex_Guru folder, so put that in your Lifeplay modules directory. You can delete everything else
Do you have a link for this mod too?


Or maybe dear Raddeck reuploads his mods again now that he is done with Lifeplay, would be a shame if they are lost forever.

For future reference you can find the repos for his mods here . His latest commit in all of them removes the module files, but if you click on commits, find the commit that's one before the commit that says something like "Switched to Patreon", and on the right you'll see a button that says "Browse the repository at this point in the history". Click on that and it'll show the state of the repo before the files were deleted, click the green "Code" button, and then "Download ZIP"

When the scene frequency setting works yes but in my case for whatever reason it rarely does. And I know I'm not the only one that has had problems with it not working.

Where do i put the update file?
I dont really know how to do it instead of downloading the full game
You just unzip the update inside the base folder of your game.

I haven't messed with scene frequency in a long time so I haven't noticed any issues with it. I just leave it at 1. I used to use a lower value until I noticed that some scenes already have timeouts in the thousands of hours, so a lower frequency was guaranteeing that you'd never see them more than once unless you played the same game for a long time. Now I just adjust the timeouts in the scene files if I feel like a scene is triggering too frequently.

In propose_baby.lpscene from rcbc pregnancy mod
Line 9: If (Actor:attractiontoplayer + Actor:rapportwithplayer) > 60
Is it supposed to be [] instead of this (), I don't know I'm asking?
In the guide, in If_Random_and_While.txt, somewhere in the middle, they say: The square brackets [] are used to group conditions.

Saves have 2 components: There's the character data that gets saved in Content/Saves, and then there's the .sav files which contain all of the other data. The .sav files are saved in another location. On my machine they're found under AppData/Local/LifePlay/Saved/SaveGames.

When you delete a save in-game it deletes the .sav file, but not the character data. Unfortunately the character data isn't very useful without the associated .sav file since that's what actually keeps track of what NPCs are in your game. The character data also doesn't contain any of the game progress info (perks, money, house, etc.). All of that info is stored in the .sav file.

Is there a bug with cameraFocus(Actor)? I cannot make it work either with the player or NPC.
