For the other reports of the sex scene from v0.17 to v0.18, are you all using unren to unpack the game files? If so, please try to launch normally and see if it works that way. Others who have reported the issue only seem to be experiencing it when unpacking the game files to play with the code etc.

If anyone is getting issues just from launching the base game normally (not other compressed or modded versions), please do let me know + what platform you are using :) we don’t upload here, so I don’t know if it’s possible that when it’s been shared here it was run through unren beforehand which is causing issues for some?

SeptCloud I can confirm this happens for me as well. Fresh install of game, updated ipatch and v18 files (per this topic), and no other utilities. This is loading a save just prior to the event Brawnstar mentions.

But in my save, given my previous choices, clicking 'Continue' jumps to the threesome with Kali and the neko.
i think to make this work correctly you have to start a save from the conversation between mc an lucius at night (salon)
scene_55_part2 (jump there if you know how) - the messed up var´s are maybe saved (just a guess)
i started a new game and it was working fine

No, I am installing the game fresh, then the two updated patch files (patch.rpa and update18.rpa), and nothing else.

Fire up game (it does start correctly after those two fix files were added), load a save right before sex with Ling Guo, then it happens as described.

Not a huge deal for me, I loaded my "tail-end of update 17" save, that worked and got me into chapter 18 at least, so I think I'm OK.

EDIT: re-reading what Boehser Onkel said... I'll try loading a much older save, but I suspect he's correct.

SeptCloud Loading a save from the middle of v0.16 does the same thing.

If you choose Kagome at the choice menu with Ling Guo, everything does seem to work correctly. I got past finding the catalyst with her then saved.

But if you choose to have sex with Ling Guo, it does as mentioned already.

No big deal for me, I'm past that point anyway, just info for others who may want it.

Thanks a lot, mate. Appreciate you taking the time to look at that and letting us know! Just to confirm, does this only happen with the twins patch installed or without it as well?

Hmm... I'll have to test that.

OK, so... use the updated v18 file, but not the twins file(s), then repeat above. I'll test that shortly.

SeptCloud Things are getting more odd, or I didn't notice this before when I was skipping ahead, but.... (and I'll spoiler since I took screenshots in-game and can't easily resize on the fly)...

With the game fresh installed, corrected 'update18.rpa' file, and no twins patch:

Not sure what's what, lol.

I’ve taken this away separately with TheSidewinder. From what we can see it looks like it’s only on save files with modded content as I cannot replicate this error and none of our Patrons have reported it… I will take a further look tomorrow to see if something can be done. If someone who has never modded their game is running into this issue, please let me know!

I’m on my phone so I can’t double check the game itself right now, but from memory, I believe that when excluding the twins patch (which is specifically dedicated to lesbian content), for Realm 2 there have 13 lewd scenes so far and only one of them has had a threesome, all of the rest have been Atlas with one girl and no lesbian content. I think that saying you need to avoid all scenes is a bit of an exaggeration…

I’ll reiterate that all scenes can be avoided and I think it’s quite obvious when a scene with lesbian content is coming up so it can be avoided if you choose to do so.

the unfortunate thing for me if kali is probably my second favorite character design in the game and i feel like every scene involving her is a lesbian or bi one

Yeah, that’s fair! She will have more solo content in the future, but not for a few more updates yet.

Here’s something from our Twitter for you in the meantime (couldn’t post the image here directly from my phone): :)

Don't worry about it.

1. You can't please everyone.

2. A lot folks with Harem games that I've seen are insecure and think of Harem stories more like Sex Doll stories that you collect and only you can touch. Not factoring in folks write stories as living people. Most time, "Harem Sisters" will form relationships with each other. BadMustard does a great job with that.

3. Many of your readers & those who support you with dollars, most likely enjoy all the lesbian/bi content of the ladies.

Yeah I haven't had any issues at all with the update, or the game in general lol. No mod here (except for the twins patch), and everything plays just fine. No errors or anything.

Using the twins patch with update 18 is a problem even without using unren (which enables the developer console).

The underlying cause is the duplication of some return labels (in the original version it is duplication of _call_angles_23 and _call_angles_24). When the code hits the "call angles" which uses the first instance of the duplicated label, it will execute the call and then return control to the second instance of the duplicated label instead of going back to the first. In this case you'll jump from partway through scene 67 over to part way through scene 71. The posted modified versions fixed the original duplicated labels, but created some different ones, so they aren't really a fix.

If you have the developer console enabled it detects the error at startup and throws the exceptions so you know what to fix, but that isn't what is causing the bug.

I've attached a file which should fix this issue if you're using the twins patch (from update 17) with the original update 18 game. Do not try to combine this with the other modified files posted in this thread, since those just introduce different versions of the same kind of problem. It is meant to be unzipped into the main folder with paths, so the resulting file should be: <game location>\game\patch\scripts\update17\scene67.rpym
Note that I am not the game dev so this is completely unofficial. Also note that it is only useful to you if you are playing through the twins scene from update 17 (which is where the bug occurs).

Cheers for looking into this. The strange thing is, on our side, when building the game and in our code, those labels aren't there. I know that RenPy can make adjustments when doing builds, but I am a little baffled by what is causing this. I'm still thinking that where others have rebuilt this, it may have populated those labels automatically... We are seeing if there is anything we can do with a further build to prevent it from happening :)

Aside from that, I hope everyone has enjoyed the update!

The update was incredible, I already played it a few times. I didn't have any issues, but I never used a mod and I downloaded from Itch.
The new animation detail blew me away and the images looked so good. The story of realm 2 feels like it is coming together nicely and I cannot wait for the next few versions to see where you go with the story. Hoping Ba’el nd Kagome will be seen a few more times. I will also add that female Ba'el got me a bit excited and I saw in Discord that I was not the only one lul
