are you finally implementing the variable were you took the evil routeYou can ignore that variable for now, it was implemented just in case I would actually use it for some challenge, but I gave up on the idea. Too complicated and would probably be too frustrating for players and for the dev as well. There are already a lot of other things to take care before that. And yeah, your guess is not far from the truth. Maybe in a 2.0 rework version in a distant future.
were you cheated on your girl in sandstorm, raped Nora and Maddie
and have the MC exposed as a brutal animal by the gods?
a sort of final judgment day you could call that the stormtrial!
would so love for my MC to have his memories back at the last moment before an important decision
and if you entered with the evil route he just smiles saditicaly and lets them all burn
has he saves his sorry ass going trough the portal and leaving chaos mayhem and destruction behind him!
only to be cofronted by Astraja mom´s dog trying to enact revenge!

I didn't see the ketchup either. There's some real sickos with twisted fetishes out there. There'll be some hand holding soon. Weirdos.

Found a bug. When doing the arm wrestling part between Sonja and Astrja, at the end it writes +1 strength, but it remains 13 as before, making it impossible to get through Mathilda when you wrestle her, since it needs 14 strength, which you should have by then if not for the bug. Not cool. This wasn't like this before, did the mod change something?

I did find a line that I missed, try the new version and see if it fixes your issue.

I found a bug in the mod, so you should probably download again.Since SOMEbody is slacking off
Mod updated for game version 0.7.01 WW (mod bugfix):
NOTE once again, this is a significant rewrite and I'm not going to pretend that I'm perfect, so something might have been missed.
PLEASE don't reply, or @ me, or DM me for updates. I always update my ports, YES I ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE UPDATE.

Will do. Interestingly, if you get affection increase with Sonja, you get the str+, so it is definitely a bug. Will check it after work.

I reapplied it, did not solve it. If you don't get affection with Sonja after the arm wrestling event, even though it writes str+ it does not raise from 13 to 14. I did not apply it on a clean install, mind you, just overwritten game folder again.
that's a bug which happened in the original version around v0.5 and which concerns code in old scripts.
it was solved later in the following original updates in v0.6/v0.7, but maybe the mod followed on the v0.5 and missed that fix as it didn't concern the recent scripts
I'm aware it's not the strongest part of the game. In v0.7, I already started to try some new stuff compared to before (with Sonja, Astrja & Mathilda) but these were soft measures and in v0.8 it will be quite the strong measures, with new techniques, new animators, new coding, new structure and then I'll make a poll to check the feedback of players on the different techniques. There will be scenes with your suggestion, I did that already at times btw (not often on lewd animations, though), so I technically know how to do it. It's just that to me, it was making the scene too short and too hypnotical when the loops are repeating forever, and I don't find it very comfortable to read while something is moving behind, so it was not really my favorite technique. I made a poll on patreon on the matter, and it seems like 70% agree with you, so I'll give it a try. v0.8 will quite the lewd laboratory... but it's for science, lol.nevermind that, one thing you really should improve are animations - and im not talking about fps or similar stuff.
just please dont make them as "textless" sequences inserted between still renders with text (dialogue, monologue, whatever).
thats the worst thing that completely kills vibe of sex scenes.
and it doesnt take much effort to improve it significantly at all.
apart from that "minor" inconvenience those are great games 1/1.
in the story department one of the best around.
Just be aware that spending more time on lewd scenes means that the story doesn't progress much on the other side (can't have everything sadly, and story, looks and atmosphere have always been the most important aspect to me, and I'm not looking to make SnowStorm even slower than it is already). Increase of quality = increase of time. That's the AVN law. I was much faster at releasing SandStorm updates because I used to give very little care to details compared to now. And now, I can't accept anymore to provide bad art, or random stuff.
That said, with experience and maybe some dedicated staff, I'm pretty positive that I'll catch up on the lewd part sooner or later. At first, my art was pretty poor (remember first updates of SandStorm), and now it's one of the strong points. Same can be said on the writing, which was considered weak in SandStorm, and I don't believe it's the case anymore in SnowStorm (can't thank enough the proofing team xD), so there is always hope. If lewd scenes are now getting in the front line of criticisms, it means the rest got better for this aspect to become the new weak point, and thus my new priority and range of improvements.
Also I won't release the 3rd episode before I've leveled up all the aspects of AVN to the same height. DustStorm has to climb another step compared to SnowStorm in terms of quality and technique, like the clear step that happened between SnowStorm and SandStorm. I'm quite ambitious and competitive, so I'm always motivated to do better, and also to do stuff that are uncommon (and thus challenging) in the AVN market.

Wow, thank you for the information! One question though; why did you make Skaði a goddess? She is supposed to be jötunn. She was only let into Asgard among the Æsir, because of her marriage to Njord, a god. But she is a giant. You have made her gorgeous, though.that's a bug which happened in the original version around v0.5 and which concerns code in old scripts.

thanks for the response, everything ofc is a matter of personal preferences, yet im glad you are open to various feedback.that's a bug which happened in the original version around v0.5 and which concerns code in old scripts.

and most importantly that you are continuously trying to improve.
good luck with everything you wanna to achieve, gonna keep to follow your work no matter what.
even with some flaws you certainly are in top 5% VNs developers, so just keep going!
only the skies are the limit...or not
You found the explanation on your own, lol (btw in most games and visual art, she is not represented as a giant because it's unsexy)
Skadi is the one who matched better with Astrja. (better than freyja for example)
She's not supposed to have a wolf with her neither. But I thought he would bring some fun to the situation, and also a nice context to the story (White Wolves), so hey, I'll adapt the myths to what suits me best, I'm not making an history book

And thank God, you left those skis out, now that would have been very "unsexy"You found the explanation on your own, lol (btw in most games and visual art, she is not represented as a giant because it's unsexy)

Freyja is overrated, thanks to that horrible God of War game. Frigg would have been a mismatch as well. Sif would have been an interesting choice, golden hair etc. but I guess you avoided her because of her GoW role.

And I'm happy for that honestly. The game is much more fun that way. After all we're playing/reading fictional novel and not watching documentary at discovery channelso hey, I'll adapt the myths to what suits me best, I'm not making an history book

And here we are..............
I guess I´m not the only one fascinated by the story of this awesome VN, so I hope you will follow this path until the glorious end.
Lewd scenes are the cherry on the cake but can´t substitute a thrilling story with well composed characters.

in north mythology giant does not reflect the size of the being being described but the greatness of their souls,
even if they do bad things to the Aesir or the Vaenir the fact that they dared to stand makes them "giant" in spirit!
the same for dwarfs but on the opposite side, people who reduce themselves to small things
like owning a craft or just becoming greedy instead of trying to grow greater and above themselves!
in this case Astraja Father by his actions became a dwarf... always greedy,
while Nox although totally wrong has all commies inevitably are,
her pursuit of excelence, knowledge and trying to elevate others makes her a giantess!
our limited interpretation of the concept of dwarfs and giants and gods in north mythology has been skewered by the catholic interpretations!
plus the fact that some sort of racism infered into these concepts that did not exist in pagan north society!
so the jews and basically all semits were kindered to dwarfs as "greedy" ignoring that people who get obssessed over sex or other vices are also/or become "dwarfs"!
orcs both the big bulky war machines as well as the crafty goblins are now connected to the English view of Africans and overall blacks in the 18th and 19th century!
yes that includes the mixlings as being stronger and smarter!
when in reality orc´s did not exist before the 10 and mainly the 11th century, cause orcs were fictionalised versions of the bretons and normans of northern france who would constantly raid the saxon populations of southern england... yes... orcs became the royal and noble families...
there is debate if the term orc also applyed to norse vikingers or just the northern french raiders!
vinkingers by the way is a verb not a defenition of a norseman, vikingers meant raider or those that raid!
so in the context of this story only the bloodybears could be considered vikingers and others who join them ocasionally were temporary vikingers!
So if a woman hones her beauty but does not neglect the rest of her life like knowledge spirituality and trying to be good to others she is a giantess!
while a woman that reduces all of her being into being attractive is a dwarf!
somehow the norse instinctually understood the law of smaller gains,
the story in sandstorm might have not beeng has complex but imho is still better, or at least the game, more options and the grey moral MC makes for a better game!that's a bug which happened in the original version around v0.5 and which concerns code in old scripts.
