the dev really needs to learn how to code.
No wonder it's re-written several times.
Instead of using "MCName" + "suffix" for sayer in renpy, he uses "Dylan", "Dylan (shouting)", "Dylan (soft)" ... and so on.
WTF? Alone for Dylan he uses several HUNDRED (yes, you see right - no typo/mistake over here) different sayer-definitions.
over 2000 sayers ingame for now:
1685882933588.png
Ever heared about variables and how to use them?
mc_name = "Dylan"
suffix_soft = "(soft)"
....
suffix_angry = "(angry)"

(or even better: use 1 dictionary instead of dozen suffix)

then use sayer: mc_name+suffix_soft
(or sayer: player+suffix['soft'] if you use dictionary)

At least people would be able to rename the MC like they want to. renaming is a basic feature in all modern avn games.

There is no need to use an entirely new sayer for every emotion you want to express.

*SIGH* people decide to create games and start to put some lines together even without at least some basic knowledge about coding.

EDIT:
Or even better: just use ONE sayer (ffs "Dylan" if you want), and put the mood into textline:
Sayer: Dylan:
Textline: "(whispering) ... whatever needs to be whispered"
=> like other games do for a GOOD reason!

As pointed out in this version of this "game" there really isn't any incest. Sophia is Liam's girlfriend, and Dylan is Liams son. Ellie is Sophia's daughter from another marriage. So, there isn't even "step".

I have decided to remove the patch since it was the previous version and it was rewritten again. I do not want people downloading old/broken shit.

There is a

I'm guessing all patches will/are out of date due to the dev rewriting the story/text again for the 4th time or so.

Patch/s will be updated in due time, well depends I guess, be bluntly honest, maybe now it's re-written in a way incest is a thing, will have to dig into v2.6.6 to know for sure.....

Also, this edit is done 10 minutes after release here on F95, so it won't be now, 5 minutes from now, hell, not an hour from now, it will be in the next day or so, unless the other "alternative patch" above notices a new update is out. If not, I will slowly go through line by line to see what will need to changed again, what fun times :lepew:
You know, SonsOLiberty, that is why we love you, brother. All of us pervs appreciate your hard work and dedication.

I have made a V2 version which his like you want and still without any modification from the game script :cool:
I am very confused, which of the two Ipatches is the V2 version?, the V2 supposedly solves the script issues, right? Or are we having to wait for a better Ipatch version? SonsOLiberty, I guess you have to take over this clusterfuck.

Everything seems to stay the same. Except that in both Ipatch mods, he is now called BigDick and I'm not playing the game with his name being BigDick, how dumb is that? I'll wait for SonsOLiberty to come up with the solution. He's good....he's very good!!

i agree - but it's nearly impossible to put a rename function into the game the way it's coded. Guess the modder just had refactored "Dylan" with "BigDick" (bad move).
You might use URM-Mod and replace "BigDick" with any name of your choice, so that at least the textlines refer to the name you want, but still the Sayer (name displayed above the text) will not be affected by that at all - you would need to replace all dozen hundreds (yes, you read right) of different "dylan-sayers" manually, which isn't worth the effort at all. That's why i played without ipatch as that's the lesser evil XD.

how to use (attached) urm mod to rename Characters or replace text in any RenPy game:
(Note: this mod is non-invasive and will NOT alter ANY of your game files, if you don't want or need it, just remove the file again)

This Mod is universal and works with 99% of all RenPy games !
(for "how to use cheating/changing values" search this forum for "URM mod" and get a detailed documentation over there)

1.) extract urm file
2.) place file in "game" folder as usual
3.) start game
4.) when prompted to update mod, do either choice (doesn't matter if update fails either)
5.) once ingame (started new game or loaded savegame), hit ALT + M (at once)
6.)

9.)

i recommend also to select "case insentive" and "Replace parts", so that "dylan's" would be "yourname's".
This will replace every word of your choice in shown text, but sadly this will not affect your "Sayers" (name above textbox)

Normally, you would also change the Sayer like this:
1.)

2.)

3.)

But as you see:

This is where the dev REALLY messed up. He REALLY created over TWO THOUSAND characters in this game - mostly for Dylan only. Good luck and have fun to rename them all.
Not mentionning that we are "only" in early state of the game, knowing a handful NPC, and already have 2000+ variables for character names in the code.
RESPECT !!!!!!!!!

That's why i wrote in my review, that i doubt this game will be able to be finished based on that complete mess of code and the way it's been coded.

Apologies if this has been answered before; I played 2.5 and now 2.6.6, and both end in the exactly same point... what's new on this update? What did I miss?

BTW, the motel scene is just awesome.

Now, your talking computer tech stuff, way above my pay grade.
