Ren'Py Straitened Times [v0.66] [HRelease]
OK, I've hit the final dead end with the Lawyer. I've gotten about as far as I can in every situation, and I've repeated every situation that gave sexual tension or lowered her professionalism until it didn't move anymore. Her professionalism is at 73.19999999999999. Her sexual longing is at 103.25. And I STILL can't access cunni in the office on the weekend. Naughty doesn't do anything. I've tried every weekend. I've tried everything I can think of.
So I edited the value and dropped her professionalism down to 70... and Saturday went like it always did, but Sunday it finally unlocked cunni. Not sure if it might have been the 0.19999999999999 that was messing me up, or if I was real close to having it unlocked. Might have even been a weird bug, but I suspect that it was caused by me always using the highest option on her, which drained them and exceeded the lower options. There should probably be a failsafe in place in case someone does that.

There's a very early scene in the stepfamily chain of events where MC needs the address of his stepmom.
There are two ways of obtaining it: either you pester Ren for it and she caves in, at the cost of some Opinion and possibly an IOU; or you wait and raise Victoria's opinion high enough and then convince her that it would help her case if both families were on board, at which point she just gives the address and asks MC not to reveal who gave him the address, because she values her professionalism.
I wonder if choosing the second approach (having Victoria give the address instead of Ren) has just enough of an effect on her professionalism... (I haven't looked at code, so it's just a guess)

You should be able to lower her professionalism just by the weekend office visits.
When I started, I had her profess at around 91 and allure at the point of getting HJs.
- Ask about Naughty at the start of each visit (Most times, she dismisses you and tells you to wait)
- HJs until drained
- FJs until drained
- At one of the naughty talks, she agree to something new, cunni.
- Do cunni 2-3 time then go back to HJ.
- Ask to be her BF for BJ
- Stop here work on getting Raw from her (apt on non-party nights) and Ren (Night activies)
- Got back to weekend office and do cunni
- Ask Ren to join
- Fight (may be story progression)
- Threesome
Ended up with profess around 57 and allure 120ish. NOTE: I didn't attend enough weekday meetings to unlock the trial and meet the judge until after the 3some.
Go to the party with some Premium Wine. Pour fast to empty the bottle. Go for more alcohol.
You may need to go to the police station to increase her allure.
- Before 21:00, talk to her and choose: Naughty. If you had sex in the motel, it will lead to more sex
- 21:00 to 0:00, wait by the front desk. Ask for a ride to the motel. Will lead to sex. Motel Manager may join (RNG)
Found a minuscule, tiny (tiniscule?) exploit (for those of us who don't use cheats or console)
So, start of game, it always takes three (3) tries before MC finds the modeling job offer from some Sam in downtown, correct?
(Two blank tries, then on the third try you get the casino but it doesn't advance time, and then immediately the job offer on the "real" third try.)
Turns out you can save the initial two blank tries.
While the game is still on rails: at 8 am, after talking to mom, use the Browser and Search for a job – the game tells you that you don't have time for that. Take the bus to school: at 9 am, after meeting Principal Pitt, again use Browser and Search for a job – again, the game tells you that you don't have time for that.
..... Except that those two invalid searches for a job each count as one (1) actual try, so that now, the very first time you will search for a job once the game actually starts at 11 am, you'll find the casino and the photoshoot offer...
(Yeah, I have way too much time and no life...)

If you don't want to play, don't play, what's the problem?

yeah now go and find the phrase that i said "i don't want to play" uncle
The PDF walkthrough (Step by Step Guide), found under the Walkthrough 2 link on the OP, has its uses, but it's far from perfect (there are events missing, some prerequisites are wrong, etc.). Still, it's worth it to have a look, just to get a feel for what various events might be hidden where. (Not all events are hinted at in your Tasks on your phone.)
The txt "walkthrough" found under the Walkthrough link on the OP is boring, and it's only a personal play-through, not a real walkthrough; I wouldn't bother with it, but the various Interests jpg's listed under the same link of the OP are fine.
If the game is rather new to you, here are some pointers
1) There's no rush, no race: you can have as many in-game days as you want to achieve various goals
2) Get to know the characters' topics of interest (either by trial and error, or simply by looking at the Step by Step Guide or the Interests jpegs). Talking to people consumes 0 energy, so "butter up" everyone
3) It's not a VN: some events depend on chance or RNG
4) Speaking of chance: jerking off in your room (or bathroom if there's someone in the room) may lead to positive results
5) Some actions (when girls get corrupted enough) may only be undertaken with the girl you're sharing your room with, so it makes sense to "cycle" the girls who share your bed once in a while (I do it once a week, but there's no right or wrong way)
6) Another chance event: searching for jobs on your phone. Sometimes you'll waste an hour for nothing, it's fine: keep at it regularly, in between events
7) DO NOT be a good boy and attend all classes, miss some once in a while. A- This will give you the chance to attend to other tasks, and B- The principal will "deal with you" (wink, wink) to make up for lost attendance if it falls below 90% [BUT: below 60% is game-over.]
8) Conversely, try not to miss your appointments; keep a habit of looking at your Tasks
And enjoy

This is what I was saying, either it was bugged, or I did things in the wrong order (always doing the highest thing). I could NOT get cunni unlocked on the weekend. I had done EVERY option on the weekend repeatedly with no movement to any stats. I had also done every other scene possible with the lawyer including weekdays, court room, party evenings, regular evenings, lunches, dinner at her mom's, and watching me with her mom on the phone. I understand how it was SUPPOSED to work, but it was NOT working. Anyway, I have moved past that. Manually dropping professionalism down by 2 point something fixed it. I might have tried going back and just removing all the trailing decimals and saw if that cleared it up, but once it got back on track I didn't want to.
I'm nearing the end of the content. It was definitely a good game, and, as mentioned before, I'm hoping they will expand it. At minimum, I'd like them to introduce the two other girls who are the same age as I am, motel manager's daughter and art teacher's daughter, since they have both been mentioned, but only seen as background characters. Of course I'd like to see more with the art teacher and interactions between her and the other ladies.
If I had to point out ONE thing they have done better than anyone else it would be the interaction between the different women, especially Lily (who has an extra scene with most of the women). Rather than just ending a route when you have unlocked all of their solo sex scenes, it opens up the interaction between women, which leads to almost limitless possibilities. My other aforementioned suggestions remain unchanged. See previous post a handful of pages back.
