when i click on the icon it opened the game with black screen then nothing happened
I'm not sure if you've tried this yet or not, but go and download the Visual C++ Redistributable runtimes from a mirror site close to you. Once the file is downloaded, extract the files to a temporary folder (which you can delete later) and run the included "install_all.bat".

If that still doesn't work, go into your Nvidia Control Panel, select "Manage 3d settings" and disable V-Sync.

Please let me know if one of the two helped resolve the issue.

Go into Control Panel >> Device Manager >> Display adapters. If you see more than 1 device listed, try disabling one or the other, then try loading the game. If you only see 1 device listed, disable your Nvidia. At this point, you'll be using Microsoft Basic Display drivers. If the game loads this time, then it's your GPU, as that would mean your hardware is too old to play it. Your video card should have at least 2GB VRAM.

Yeah, it's not letting me check in more than one guest even when I have it set to 2 with the right person working the lobby. It keeps defaulting to 1 and the person is not in the room anymore. Any suggestions?

More than likely you haven't renovated any new guest rooms on the second floor. Each time your manor levels up, you need to renovate a guest room in order to create a new guest slot on the planning screen, which will allow you to take on more guests at check-in. You'll also want to upgrade any facilities you have renovated on the planning screen with additional seating areas to accommodate your guests as well (circled in red on the planning screen).

i tried full hotel once or twice before endgame and it was exhausting (no rest for girls).

would need dbl staff to run full hotel longer than 1 or 2 rounds.

That you can easily get around by taking advantage of the "Lock staff energy" cheat or the tarot cards (The mistress, The drunk, The servant or The nocturnal). I think the biggest challenge some players might run into, especially with taking on more guests, would be not paying close attention to the guests needs at check-in, which may result in multiple guests wanting the same facility as the other guests at the same time of day. One of the guests isn't going to be happy the room is booked full. So there's that to take into consideration.

even with 3-4 guests their quests overlapped with each other or with staff's quests.

ofc i usually took those who paid most unless there was quest to follow like einstein's quest.

What I always did was not take in any guests in order for me to focus on the girls' events, at least until I needed to level the staff up. Then, at that time, I started working on guest events and took advantage of having Amanda around on weekdays. :LOL:

That, and just not booking the hotel full when any troublemaker is included, so I can focus on the task at hand. Since one guest is enough to keep you in the black, that shouldn't be a problem.

Being in the Midnight Sin thread the other day made me remember why I stopped playing this... there was a bug with some events added to the woods that made me unable to access anything except the Explore function the forest due to some bug when unlocking the town was introduced... Was hoping there'd be a bugfix but it never happened and I didn't want to start over, just gave it a shot again with the final version and it looks like it's still bugged.

I had no problem exploring the woods.

I do remember that I had to complete certain 'in town' events before some of the woods encounters were unlocked.

It's been a while since I played though so I don't remember which specific encounters were locked behind in town content.

Cheers!! :coffee:

There was an issue once with older saves, that did not allow one of the downtown locations to appear, but I don't remember one for the woods.

Yeah, I believe it was the general store that was missing on the map in the older saves IIRC.

I had unlocked the woods fully, then some options got locked out when the downtown locations were released somehow. Anyway my main point is is there a fix without having to start over lol? I'll just attach an updated save I made yesterday if y'all still do the save editing thing. I'm still mad I haven't figured out what encoding y'all are using. Not that I tried that hard anyway but it's typically something simple, not like I'm a cryptographer or anything lol.

I just looked at your save and I can see you have the lake, bank and the general store missing from your map. The lake and bank are easy to get, but the general store is not. So it looks like you might have used an older save there because that bug was fixed back when it was first discovered. Unfortunately that can't be unlocked, so you would have to start over.
