EDITED

Can't trigger the following routes. Does anyone know how to fix it, or a console command/ "URM" trigger, to complete the step? Want to say it bugged me.
Quest stuck on
Completed
Bugged

1. "Dating the sisters: Alexa route" step 20 "The war is over" (Enter Mary's room when you see both sisters are in there. They seem to be talking about something medical (At 23:00))
will not show both in the same room at the same time
completed: "Mary route" + "Alexa route" (sex with condom)


2: Lily + Anna + Julia route (Work at X-shop with Lily, Anna shows up. Give her a demonstration of the strap-on (Foursome))
will not trigger
completed: "overtime: Julia + Lily route" (triggered threesome on couch), "Anna's her bedroom route" step 13 or 14, "LILY job route", "Lauren + Julia route"

3: "Lisa" (mom) and "Darna" (motel manager) threesome?
Sexual tension stuck at 26% won't increase no matter what I do.
Completed: all "Lisa routes" and the other quests from Darna except "Violet + Darna route"

Everything else that is not locked past the five routes is completed.
Except: Andrea (Bank manager)
Reason: not doing criminal playthrough

First of that you for this guide, has been a huge help.
I had to start over, (I messed around with allure and caused an issue with aunt) and still had a problem getting step 9 of "competing for the trophy" to trigger. Once I got allure up to 150 for mom and aunt, I could trigger steps 10 to 13, and only then did step 9 trigger.
So was it me, or did they change the steps?
Once again, thank you.

Thanks for the help yesterday. Stuck in the clothes route with Lisa and Kate. They both get naked and then ask who did better. I've done this 6 or so times, choosing different winners, complimenting them both. It never moves forward.

I believe you’re supposed to choose Kate, and only Kate, until it progresses

will not show both in the same room at the same time
completed: "Mary route" + "Alexa route" (sex with condom)
You have to fuck Alexa 3 times with a condom, then the next day or a couple of days later you have to catch the girls in Mary's room at 23:00 on weekdays or 10:00 on weekends. Then have sex with Alexa 2-3 more times with a condom and at night she will tell you that she is now on pills and next time you can do it without a condom


2: Lily + Anna + Julia route (Work at X-shop with Lily, Anna shows up. Give her a demonstration of the strap-on (Foursome))
will not trigger
completed: "overtime: Julia + Lily route" (triggered threesome on couch), "Anna's her bedroom route" step 13 or 14
I had the event triggered a couple of times on Friday and Sunday. Anna showed up at 3-4 pm. At the same time, I had a threesome with Julia and Lily 2-3 times, and a foursome in Anna's room with the end in each of the daughters too. Perhaps you need to abstain from sex with them 12+ hours before the event.
It might also be necessary to pump up the relationship between Anna and Lily. Invite Lily or the whole commune to visit Anna more often.


3. "Jaslene Dunn (Night out route)"
A: stuck on night out step 14 (Happy morning, wake up together with a naked Jaslene (blowjob))

Completed: "School route", "Jaslene Helena route", night out route, except can't trigger "wake up together blowjob." (able to complete everything else with anal and raw sex)
First you have to go to bed with Jasleen dressed. She will allow you to do this after she wakes up naked at least once. Then you bring her home after night school, undress her and without spilling beer on her clothes go to bed with her until 7-00 or 8-00.


4. "House search: Violet + Darna route"
will not trigger after 12 plus attempts
Completed: "Violet's Police Station route" and completion of "Darna's Alternative room route".
Maybe a threesome with Darna+Lisa is needed first. Also maybe Darna should wait for you in a separate room right before you arrive with Voleta. And don't forget the fucking RNG.


5. "Lisa" (mom) and "Darna" (motel manager) threesome?
Sexual tension stuck at 26-28%
Completed: all "Lisa routes" and the other quests from Darna except "Violet + Darna route"
Give a bottle of wine to Darna, go into their room every hour after that. They will start to undress. Repeat several times.

Everything else that is not locked past the five routes is completed.

Tell me, will Jill not be your girlfriend now? I'm talking about family status. I remember Violet could have this status before. About ten game updates before.
UPD: oh shit i forgot to fuck her bareback alone

it's possible they changed it. however it's also possible youneed to have had raw sex 3 times with one or both of them (rule of thumb is that this unlocks some stuff if you're ever blocked) If you had completed both of the required routes that could have been the issue

1. Odd, try and have dinner with the family or repeat some steps, maybe that will somehow trigger it?

2. have you worked with lily on the weekend?

3. try different thing to trigger. Soak her clothes with beer, don't do anything, just try and raise her allure any way you can and so on.

4. you have the alternative room? if yes then try raising allure with the both of them

5. You've told Darna she can visit whilst she is just vibing in the motel reception (gave her wine) Darna's allure perhaps?

GENERAL
The game is very strict on triggers. Try having raw sex with everyone at least 3 times (or even anal
3 times) Routes can also be bugged when a new update releases so if you've tried and retried everything you could (up to more then 3 times) then maybe go to the game's discord and ask around there. If you ask the dev he sometimes asks to send in your savefile so he can see what's wrong.

PS. NEVER edit values other then money (i believe) if you're using cheats or whatever. Theycan screw up triggersup to an insane amount

Hope this helps

Thank you for helping. I've completed some of them, but others won't trigger. (Note on cheating is URM for money) and walkthrough guide. I might just find a save completed and skip the remaining quests.

1. Still bugged for me, I tried going back to my old save and going very slow, and/ or went back through the quest again.
"Dating the sisters: Alexa route" step 20 "The war is over" still bugged, went through all family steps again/ slept at house 15+ days, still won't trigger.

What does trigger: (They both kiss MC on the steps in the hall.), And "rivalries aside: Alexa + Mary route" up to step 4 (sleeping together and MC jerks on them but refuses sex), anal/ condom sex with Alexa, and every quest completed with Mary.
What does not trigger: enter Mary's room when you see both sisters are in there.


2: Lily + Anna + Julia route (Work at X-shop with Lily, Anna shows up. Give her a demonstration of the strap-on (Foursome))
will not trigger, every quest with Lily/ Julia/ Anna is completed. I even completed ( "Lauren + Julia route")

3. completed now

4. Also completed now

5. Still won't complete "Lisa" (mom) and "Darna" (motel manager) threesome?
Ran encounter at 2100 9 more times and still stuck at 26 sexual tension.
Currently, Lisa and Darna "allure" are maxed out for me, even with other encounters.

Hit ignore
Keep going to court until grandma pulls you to the cafe, and spend time with both your grandmothers. It should fix itself.

then i'd suggest going to the discord and ask help from the dev. he responds a lot so should be no problem. i don't kno< enough how this game (and coding in general) works, the guide was made by just me playing trouugh the game, noting down what happened when it happened, so i could have lissed a detail here or there

You can try 5 other candidates:
MAunt.TalkThemes["Chat"]["YourParents"].Text = "Your Parents"
MAunt.TalkThemes["Chat"]["AboutHer"].Text = "About Her"
MAunt.TalkThemes["Chat"]["LoveLife"].Text = "Love Life"
MAunt.TalkThemes["Chat"]["HerShedule"].Text = "Her Shedule"
MAunt.TalkThemes["Chat"]["StepFam"].Text = "[StepT!c][FamilyT]"

Do you understand you can't rollback after putting the console code, or your changes would be lost?

I entered all the commands in the console (Shift+O), but that didn't solve the problem.

The string 'Il caso di [YourFatherT!' must be from your Spanish translation
If you have an access to your translation files try to change it to 'Il caso di [YourFatherT]'

I searched for the files you mentioned, but I couldn't find them. Could you give me some guidance on how to locate them?

About the files I mentioned: I think changing them will only help when you start the new game.

Send me your savefile and I'll try to find the string

This game feels so much like the spiritual successor to Man of the House. It's fantastic. But man - it needs the clues system that MoTH had. Way too much grinding to not know what you need to do next.

I've been using this one. It helps - but it doesn't give hints to say what you should do next. That's the thing that is missing to me. The walkthrough mod is outdated and doesn't help much either.

For RNG-based games, a guide for a particular LI is sufficient. There are some, and very good ones. It is practically impossible to create a real text walkthrough. Here, I can safely forget about money and deteriorating relationships with someone (for example, skipping a family dinner at a diner), arbitrarily schedule photo shoots, forget about having to pay for motel services every week. This is a huge reduction in the grind.
