Sorry for ask if this question been ask many time, am new to this game and just start play this game with unofficial bug fix. I want to know is it normal in intro scene when first time met christia the image and dialog didn't match at all and some replay scene in book of face is unlock some scene I did't see yet like BJ scene of amy. I install bug fix first then install missing image after. PS.Sorry for my english if it hard to understand:)
I did not touch intro in last update as that was fix by the dev himself in the update. Additionally, the unofficial CANNOT unlock anything or scenes that has not been done. That is just the way the fixes are and essential how the game is.

Now to talk about your issue:
There is an Amy BJ scene in intro that you dont see anymore when you go for water at night and go to the backdoor. Before we use to see amy giving head to her bf, but the dev removed it recently but left the triggers, hence it activate in your BOF. Now Amy just burst through the door and kick you in the nuts without the BJ scene.

As for the Christian and image/dialog problem that is an old left in trigger the dev didnt remove that was in previous update. Before we use to meet his mom in the backyard but the dev changed all that but as usual left bugs in and trigger. I just never got around to removing it. The game clearly says go to the front door, there you would of seen the proper scene with Christian and Sarah and everything would match


To all newbies:
No offense intended, just saying in general. Why do you guys always default to implying the mod or fix as the problem. You all know you can always test without mod and confirm yourself right! Is it laziness? That's like common sense thing to do in my opinion, before assuming it the mod fault and always NEVER accuse the dev.

Um I didn't mean to offense mod in anyway it is opposite I appreciate the hard work mod do to community but the reason I ask these qestion because I new to this game and want to confirm that I didn't install anything in wrong order. What I want to say is I am sorry if my word make any offence but my intention is just to ask question I don't know about that all.

There was no offense taken by me o_O and therefore no apologies needed brother. I meant in general, hence I said "all newbies" and even said no offense. I get tons of sneaky messages implying the mod. So used the opportunity to address it one time. So dont think anything of it. Check back my messages and you will see, I answered your question first with headings and then address everyone else.

Your question was a valid question or else I wouldn't take my time to reply and just simply ignore. So don't take it the wrong way homie, it all good (y)

Unless you see me talk like this below :LOL:, don't get offended by me man. I NOT sensitive and all that BS considered norm in today. So don't think your words would offend me bro. Im always rather chill (y)

so make a bet. he will do update in 1)october 2) november 3) he will drop the game anyway ppl pay=)
No,he do not need do anything,or maybe he was finish update already.He earns at least $1,500 a month(do nothing)
Think back to when he was most updated,he have Less than 100 patrons.I think ICSTOR was his idol。
Maybe his greatest joy right now is watch F95zone comment. Counting the money while watching the clown look at you and me at this moment of conversation.

Nah, He just got started, got really popular because his content was simple and straitforward, albeit needing a serious translator. Then he kept adding on features which were other peoples addons over at the RPGM forums and problems kept creeping up. The job got harder. And for someone who took the job because he didn't want to go get a real job and go to work, this was now a lot more work.

He wanted an easy life where he drew cartoons and people paid him money to do that, but didn't realize just how demanding and how much work that really is.

About four or five years ago, when the game was being reworked very shortly, I was following the game, and a friend of mine who was an avid patron of the game shared the game with me, and I helped him with the walkthrough, because I'm a little OCD and I pay a lot of attention to detail, I will test out all the details of finding $10 from a vending machine at the beach and share them with you. And I have no habit of cheating. After playing the old version of my new life a few times, I started to play the remake, and I found the root cause of the author, he has a big blueprint, he wants to cram everything he can into this game, like a dating system, The pussy fight system, the gunfight system (the training of the Chinatown gunshop in preparation for the later gang warfare), there are too many things I don't want to list... Now I would like to point out that his expertise is drawing, game making and coding, and he is completely self-taught. Almost many bugs were repaired by GOOGLE and others under free guidance. In other words, this man is a person with great ambition but insufficient ability, but this can be understood. His sponsors were few, and his updates were mostly on time, delayed a day or two at most. Why has he become so extreme now? The only thing that makes sense is that the steady and objective income has changed him. Sorry to say too much, but the world is so crazy these days. Don't forget that ICSTOR has not been updated for more than two years and has thousands of patrons ~oh my god

I used to be one of his original sponsors back then. What he told us was this was his hail mary to try and keep his dream of making a living doing art alive. And his goal to do that was a very small sum. something like 800 bucks a month. So he got to that point 3-4 months in.

Now its the nature of all living things to do the least amount possible for the most gain and it caps at a certain comfort level for everyone. So when ICSTOR or BON stop trying so hard, its because people keep giving them money anyways. To be successful, truly successful, you have to always be hungry and always dissatisfied with where you are. Most patreon users are not that kind of person. And I really mean that broadly. Its not just limited to games or art. Pretty much most patreon users are looking to replace their current income, with patreon income, not to earn more money.

but yeah he crammed in any idea that sounded good at the time. And if you ever loaded too many skyrim mods, you know how that can go.

I feel like the main problem with him was always the game design. I guess his intention was to just draw, but that didn't go so well as the game was bugged as fuck and he spent most of his time fixing the game code, where he lost the passion for the game. Now he just makes excuses to keep the game going, since he knows that his game is one of the most popular ones to exist until now. What he SHOULD have done is that he should have hired a coder. This way he would be able to design much more content while the coder would be responsible for adding those into the game. But oh no, he can't spare any of that sweet sweet patreon money, plus he almost drowned saving his dog so that money goes to hospital expenses. Boo hoo.

Spain has free healthcare so that really isnt an issue. One of his big goals back in the day was to create a game using his own art. MNL was supposed to be more of a foot in the door game.

He doesn't horde all his money, he does have a translator and thank god for that. His initial translations were abysmal to say the least. If he hired a coder, he'd be better off having them rework everything in a game that would make use of the coder's skills. RPGM isnt exactly something I would hire a full time coder for, but then again I wouldn't be dumb enough to cram addon after addon to make it something it isn't. But there are places you can hire a coder for temp work, he should look into that.

He could've hired a coder a long time ago, the only reason he still hasn't is simply cuz he would be forced to work and release updates regularly. I doubt he actually has any drive to work anymore at this point, farming paychecks for simply existing and releasing a few updates a year is comfortable for him. He has 0 issues with his current lifestyle and work ethic, people still pay him decent money every month for doing nothing. He pretty much forces himself to work for his money nowadays since even the dumbest person would realize at some point, that he's being scammed and made an utter fool. At the end of the day, it's quite amusing to observe since his downfall is pretty much imminent, I'm curious to see his damage control plan when it finally happens.

Beggar was clever enough to clear the crowd of people who could not be fooled, and the rest of the supporters were like, "Wow, you are so good, your work is so good, you are busy updating at this late hour," just like now the dictatorships kill all the dissidents or put them in jail, and block all the voices that disagree with them

^^^This is a very underrated observation!

However, I disagree with you on one small detail. Beggar clearing out the rough crowd had nothing to do with him being clever, and everything to do with him being emotionally fragile, and unable to take criticism. If you criticized/held him accountable on Discord, he banned you. If you criticized/held him accountable on Patreon, he banned you. As a result, he unintentionally created the perfect echo chamber of NPCs willing to swallow his shit, and politely ask for more.

You know what would be cool. Take Nickocockman's models (not that hard) and create new scenes and swap them out in My New Life. I know it is probably a lot of work. But it would be interesting.

As many have predicted here before, it looks like he will release the update in early October or hopefully on the 1st, after he gets paid.

how do you find the practice field in barcelona? rn my game doesn't seem to distinguish between mc or lucy, which is a problem becaue the coach will keep following you if you go to the rightside of the hotel after ditching him earlier
