VN Ren'Py My Dorm [v0.25.2 S3 Ch.5] [Tropecita Games]

[Elhemeer]

So i had to restart a fresh game lost all my saves for eveything. Everytime i load from season 2 into 3 it changes from family to clones, and i cant seem to change it back to family.

with season 3, ive had to reinstall the patch with every update

I have to put the patch file into every download, regardless of if it's a new part/season or not, so if that's what you forgot ... otherwise maybe ask on RiamMar's thread?

 

[txe320]

What kind of pregnancy content does this game have?

Women being pregnant kind of pregnancy.

 

[Elhemeer]

Damn so i am doublely screwed playing an unofficial android port.

hmm ... it's just an empty text file named "patch.txt" in the game folder ... maybe you could add it yourself?

 

[HornyyPussy]

Most of the player however, won't.

Seriously doubt it since you are the first I've seen bringing it up.

Is there any way to avoid dating Olivia? I think she's the only one I feel uncomfortable with.v

Everyone is avoidable.

 

[Elhemeer]

snakeplisskin you could also ask the person who made the version you downloaded if they could add it ...

Is there even a replay gallery for this? I was around in the early times when we finally got to have the great 1st scene with the mom but after it's like she just didn't matter and I can't stand any other character than hers so this was easily dropped. Does the mom ever get anymore fun or if so how much cause from just that ridiculous banner on the main page, the whole shitshow is so bad, I mean no normal man wants this and if so fuck that!

Season 2 onwards has a replay gallery. There will be one for S1 as well, but it's not been implemented yet. Yes, there is plenty more content with the mom, I can't comment on the rest of what you said as it doesn't apply to me.

Interesting way to ask for information......pissing on the Dev's work because you are entitled, very interesting indeed.

Thank god for The List!™

Why are there volume settings when there's no sound in the game?

 

[Trope95]

It happens when I go to the main menu from your "support the girls" screen.

I can't reproduce the error, but I can see where it may come from. Have you played the previous seasons or is it your first time playing My Dorm?
I attached an untested hotfix (since I didn't get the error in the first place, I don't know if it solves it).

loved the update loved the nickname fatty and norah! and olivia scenes were amazing also loved the samantha scenes and group chat were funny and at last loved lisa shirt and reactions and conversation excited to play next update !

Thanks!

I have the feeling that Trope is losing control of his characters and soon will see the plot that proceeds autonomously with our developer who will simply press the keys on the keyboard and make renders, too fascinated by his own game (and so many tits!) to realize that the thing has gotten out of hand (and without bothering the AI) Can't blame the man though, I too would give up in front of the charm of these characters

Jokes aside, given that the train of ideas is in full swing and there will be many more events than expected before the timeskip (a good thing for characters like Eva, Amanda and Kiara who are still on the sidelines), what can we expect from 0.23?
Will it just be the trip to Monterey with Betty and Emma or will we have more surprises along the way? And who's the redhead currently on your screen Trope?

The redhead is Eileen.
The update will focus on the first part of the Monterey trip, but it will have a lot more

AHEM... BETTY, BETTY, BETTY !!
She needs the BOOP!! THE BOOP MAN!!
loving the pace of the game so far...
WAIT A MINUTE.... KATE, KATE, KATE!!!
Yah.. Her too... She needs a broadening of horizons!!

About Edmund, we will see him again, especially in the unpatched version.
Scarlett has been sidelined for too long until the issue of her half-sisterhood was solved. Now it is.
Lisa needed a lot of evolution (and hairstyle changes) to be where she is. We also needed Debbie to evolve into someone more confident. Misc fact 1: That scene is based on something that happened to me in High School (no, I didn't date two sisters, the girl outside wasn't my girlfriend, and the girl inside wasn't as hot as Lisa). Misc fact 2: After releasing it on Patreon/SS, a player told me the scene mirrors 100% something that happened to him.
Kim will need two events to happen. Her conversation with Martha, and the event where it all starts.

season 2 not extracting for me

PC or Mac? Compressed or Full Quality?
Are you up to date with your unzipping software?

Oh good, but I do think it's still not enough. Really need to add their background, even if it's just 50~100 words, more words, like 1000 words are better. I mean, you're the developer, of course you have perfect knowledge of the whole story. Most of the player however, won't.

Sorry if I'm little annoyance, but it will be my last critic since nothing else can be criticized for this wonderful game.

1,000 words per girl. 22 girls and 6 more to come. 28,000 words. The last update had 27,446 words.
Do you think I should delay the next update for two or three weeks (not considering the code changes to add somewhere to show it) to write (and translate) an update-long text that most players don't need? It will be punishing the players who are playing update per update. For you, who play the game every 6 months or so, three weeks more won't represent an issue. For returning players, going from 6-7 weeks to 9-10 would be too much.

What kind of pregnancy content does this game have?

As of now, impregnation. The bellies haven't developed yet. They will, and there will be pregnant sex.

Just got to the update. Loved it overall, so THANK YOU for a good start to the New Year. Surprised that the poolside Scarlett reveal scene hit me in the feels as much as it did considering she is not one of my faves, but as always that is a telltale sign of good writing. Also thought that there was no way MC doesn't text a snipe or 2 to Jamaal after viewing the groupchat exchange, even with the knock on the door. And despite my being in the vocal minority on the new Lisa hairstyle...in that scene I actually kind of liked it. So once again the crowd is right and I am an idiot.

Thanks!
About Jamaal texts: I prefer it if we can see Jamaal's face when he gets an answer. As a tech-savvy guy, he knows the MC read the messages, though.

About Norah: Perhaps it's a cultural thing, but here in Spain there are a lot of men who lovingly call their wives variations of "My fatty" ("Gordita", "Gordi", or even "Gorda", although the last one is less heard, not being diminutive sounds less wholesome). And that's why you can pick another nickname if you like. One player nicknamed her "Bubbleass". I found it hilarious. I only wanted to customize how the MC calls some of the girls (Norah's being the first one) to avoid the MC calling everyone "sweetie", "my love", and "my life".

About Eva: Eva is a bit of a psycho, but not so much. She didn't forget about Gavin (that's why she said "Now I feel like laughing. And crying at the same time..."). But she's on an emotional rollercoaster and focuses on the emotion that is important at that moment. The one she should react to. She went through the five stages of grief: Denial (we didn't see it), Anger (we heard the shots), Bargaining ("If I shot him two centimeters to the left..."), Depression (we saw it), and she is in the Acceptance one. She hasn't overcome it yet, but there is something more urgent at that moment (regardless of whether the MC accepts or rejects her, two different scenes). We will see more of Eva-Gavin in the future.

Is there any way to avoid dating Olivia? I think she's the only one I feel uncomfortable with.v

Yes, when you go to the doctor with her, don't do the standing massage.

Why are there volume settings when there's no sound in the game?

There are more than 110 songs and special effects in the game.

That's "word in the spoilered image" for both, right? Right?

Kim will need two events to happen. Her conversation with Martha, and the event where it all starts.

Can we get Debbie to do her thing like Kate said? Just lock Kim in the kitchen with Martha for a bit? I think they probably both have some free time tomorrow morning (speaking in game terms from the update I've just finished).

As of now, impregnation. The bellies haven't developed yet. They will, and there will be pregnant sex.

This is one thing I've been wondering about... whether it makes any sense (or difference) to "spread the love" a bit in terms of time, so not everyone is pregnant at the same time and there's a variation of shapes still. It would feel a little weird if (almost) every LI has a big bump for a chunk of game time... Looking forward to some bellies though, I don't think I've actually played a game that's made much use of pregnant sex yet. I think most of the games that have a realistic look to them tend to avoid it.

Also, on a slightly related note, with all these women living together (or nearly so), are we going to start getting issues with their cycles all getting synced up?

About Norah: Perhaps it's a cultural thing, but here in Spain there are a lot of men who lovingly call their wives variations of "My fatty"

This one didn't feel right to me. I went for "My Plump Princess" in the end, but I had to think about it for a while. Without any spoilers, will the reasoning come into it much going forward? I know it said if changing the nickname it would be best to use something related to body size (I can't remember the wording though).

 

[johnpouljones]

I'm done playing the latest update. I took my time. It's good. As usual, anyway.

I like your kind of humor. Although there were probably fewer references in this update than usual (or I just didn't catch them). The Clone Wars? This has been lurking just around the corner for some time.

I like Amanda more and more. Not that I don't like impulsive girls with a "hammer problem" (Hammer?), but Amanda turns out to be more my type. It's starting to seriously compete for third place on my LI list. (The first two have been stable for a long time).

I think there are two different DNA test results at play. I actually don't know if the positive result made any difference for me, but Scarlett is happy and that's what matters. The show with Scarlett's reveal is great.

I like Lisa's new hairstyle better. She's so natural. The old one felt a certain distance.

I wonder why some girls get a second (or even third) chance at a relationship, while others are immediately informed: "There will be no further opportunity to open the route".

I think you've made yourself a lot of trouble with the future meeting scene with competitiors. You need to expand your resources significantly. A yacht, a helicopter and who knows what else.

Finally, complaining. My long expected scene with Scarlett wasn't finished. So much hope and so much dissatisfaction. You made a promise and left it halfway through. Now we have to wait two months for something to happen. IF it happens. This premature ending took away a lot of my enjoyment from the game. And I feel a little sad.

Hi, maybe stupid question but should I download season 1 and 2 as well as season 3 or does season 3 have all the contents of seasons 1 and 2?

You need to download them separately buddy.

You need to download each part separately. The game is divided due to file size.

 

[Wolfeszorn]

First of all, i love the game and every update so far. The Decision if you want to cum in them without consequences? Chefs kiss since i´m not a fan of preggo sex.


BUT.... In the last couple of updates i always felt kind of uncomfortable. After every sex session it felt like the LI´s are forcing him into taking that fucking test. Like... If you give us the decision to avoid consequences, i don´t need em to bother me every couple of scenes about taking that damn test -.-

Don´t worry though. i realise i´m probably alone with that and it´s just my personal opinion so excuse my little rant.

Anyway. Keep up the great work. Looking forward for the next update

I know it said if changing the nickname it would be best to use something related to body size (I can't remember the wording though).

That word applies to one of them more than the other one. She needs more time and other events to develop.
After Debbie's stunt (and Kate saying the doors open inwards) it won't work . But it won't be needed. Kim wants to have that conversation, she is only waiting for the right moment.

The problem with spreading the pregnancies in time is that it would require a lot of work (and in-game time). Imagine Eileen for example; you can get her pregnant in 0.4, 0.7, 0.15, or a later date before the trip to Aruba. I literally can't afford to render her in 4 belly development states (plus one non-pregnant state). Last time I animated her it took more than 2 hours to animate her hair only (per animation), plus the posing, and rendering time (the last animations I bought and used with Norah and Samantha are 400-450 frames long and would take ~10 hours per animation to render with Eileen's hair). If I should multiply all of those times by 5 instead of by 2 (pregnant/non-pregnant) the after-Aruba updates will take 4-6 months to do.
I understand why most games avoid pregnant sex (especially if pregnancy is optional). It's a lot of work. The poses and animations should be adjusted a lot and the pregnancy assets aren't too good. You also have the issue of which poses work well with pregnant women (no more missionary, for example), so you are limiting the choice of poses. That's one reason to have (at least) seven unpregnant women in the third act (6 new students + Meemaw). I can still use those poses that won't work with pregnant women.

The synchronized periods will be alluded to after the Aruba trip (they will have lived together, or almost, for more than six months) depending on the pregnancy status.

My Plump Princess sounds fine. It will be used but not overused. Referencing her (perceived) body size would mean other girls could react to it.

I'm done playing the latest update. I took my time. It's good. As usual, anyway.

I like your kind of humor. Although there were probably fewer references in this update than usual (or I just didn't catch them). The Clone Wars? This has been lurking just around the corner for some time.

Yes, there were fewer humorous moments in this one. Rhino herds, Emma not being able to seat, Belugas, Lisa's scene (what's happening outside the door), and the WhatsApp group come to mind right now. The update called for a more serious tone with Meemaw/Betty, Eva/Fee, and Scarlett scene(s).

I love how Amanda decided to be different from what I had in mind initially for her. Yes, she decided it . She was going to be the "cold protector", and she evolved into the "caring one". I'm happy with her change. Her protective stance now extends to her sister, so it fits great with the family dynamics, the MC isn't alone in protecting everyone. The only issue about it is "who protects Amanda"? That's (one of) the MC's job(s).

The DNA test changes depending on the patch state (positive if patched, negative if unpatched because it would mean incest already happened). Scarlett is happy whatever the result (happier in the patched version).

The second (or third) choices to start a relationship with a girl had a reason to be:
* Norah and Martha: First choice (and second for Martha) in the first release. Last choice in v.0.3.
* Erika: First and second choices in v.0.2. Last in 0.6.
* Emma: First choice in 0.4A. Last in 0.4B.
* Daphne and Scarlett: First in 0.3 (joint lessons). Individual paths in 0.4A and 0.5.
* Sam: First in 0.4A, last in 0.5.
You can see there's a pattern here. The earlier choices are to give the chance to know those characters better before making a choice. Lisa has been around for 17 updates before making that choice, so if the players haven't made up their minds in that time, they won't make up them in a couple of updates more.

About the assets, I bought the yacht and the helicopter some time ago. The good thing about having some scenes planned is that I have time for those assets to go on sale before needing them. I needed a specific yacht type (two candidates fitted my needs) but whatever (non-combat) helicopter would do. Both the yacht and the helicopter I wanted were on sale in 2023-24, so I bought them. I don't mind overexpending on Daz Store if that means better fleshed-out scenes. I spend a significant part of what subscribers pay in assets.

About Scarlett's (inexistent) scene, after her emotional rollercoaster day, she needed an(other) emotional orgasm more than a physical one. And having a fourth sex scene in the same update would mean, at least, delaying the update for a week (yes, I'm slow writing sex scenes, and they take a lot of renders lately).

Hi, maybe stupid question but should I download season 1 and 2 as well as season 3 or does season 3 have all the contents of seasons 1 and 2?

If you are new to My Dorm, the recommended way to play it is:
Download and play Season 1 until the end. The game will do an autoexport (it can fail depending on your Android device) Download Season 2 and IMPORT your Season 1 savegame. If it failed, start a New Game and answer a quick questionnaire. Play until the end. Save your game.
Download Season 3 and LOAD your Season 2 savegame. There isn't a questionnaire.

You also have the issue of which poses work well with pregnant women

I had a problem with this one.
