So after deciding to give the game a try, I ran into the pregnancy related loading bug.
I decided to investigate what caused the bug after trying out all the supposed fixes mentioned here.
- Playing non fullscreen
- Disabling Xray
- Disabling Olivia's reactions
As the game breaking bug IMO persisted I looked into what caused it at least on my end, And I narrowed it down to the video files.
Specifically the alternative variants which are used when Olivia is pregnant enough (past day 25 or so)
The moment any animated scene starts, its game over and the infinite loading starts, you cant even load back from the scene like you normally could, meanwhile any scene that isn't animated does not cause this.
I decided to look in the logs what does the game say when this happens and it gives this line.
[INFO 5/21/2025 01:27:52am] Starting Video Loop
[WARN 5/21/2025 01:27:52am] LoadVideo arg = 1 + gath_rre_1_loop_1a
[WARN 5/21/2025 01:27:52am] LoadVideo arg = 1 + gath_rre_1_loop_1b
[WARN 5/21/2025 01:27:52am] LoadVideo arg = 1 + gath_rre_1_loop_1c
[INFO 5/21/2025 01:28:18am] End of Video Loop
Meanwhile no such thing comes up in logs when doing any of the non animated scenes.
So that's all I found out, and unfortunately this is where my play trough ends then, if the game basically bricks itself soon after you get the PC pregnant, I find this to be a game breaking bug, hope it gets fixed in whatever future update you have.
