ok, Tech Support got in touch with me and now I have a different problem, back on that in a moment.

1. open Command Prompt in admin mode
2. copy and paste "regsvr32 /u MSCOMCTL.OCX" hit enter
3. download and extract the MSCOMCTL file attached and put it in your system32 folder (C:\Windows\System32) replace files if necessary.
4. go back to the command prompt, copy and paste "regsvr32 MSCOMCTL.OCX"
5. Restart your computer.

NOTE: I know this is registering into system 32 which only 32 bit windows uses, I'm using 64 bit windows and this is what worked, I don't know what tomfuckery is happening either.

after doing this I was no longer getting the mscomctl.ocx error, but I was getting a new one upon trying to open a girl, this time for comdlg32.ocx if you get the same error, just follow these instructions:

1. open Command Prompt in admin mode
2. copy and paste "regsvr32 /u comdlg32.ocx" hit enter
3. download and extract the comdlg32 file attached and put it in your system32 folder (C:\Windows\System32) replace files if necessary.
4. go back to the command prompt, copy and paste "regsvr32 comdlg32.ocx"
5. Restart your computer.

( I know its the same instructions with the name change)

Now the new issue is that the video still isn't appearing, but now if open the game in Admin mode and select a girl the damn thing crashes, I sent an email to Support telling them about the new problem, I'll post if it gets resolved
This is the same place I'm at, progress wise. They gave me a series of codec/video steps to try, but those were all a bust as well.

same, I told them when the issue started occurring and that since the software hadn't been updated and it just suddenly didn't work that a something else updated that killed compatibility, IDK, maybe the game will get an update to the modern-day since it probably hadn't gotten and update in the last decade, hell even the camera equipment and audio quality is about 2015 quality, seriously confused how they still operate...

I got the videos working again.

After a lot of updates and testing, I think at the end of the day, it was a permissions issue. I'm thinking the permissions may have been forcibly changed with a windows update, which is why it crapped out all of the sudden. Full disclosure, I did also download an AMD graphics utility and ran that (which performed a factory reset of my display adapter), but I saw no change after that. So the steps I took prior to getting it working:

-Navigate to the program folder. In my case, just to be totally safe, I reinstalled it in a path OUTSIDE of the program files, as they are naturally locked down in the system there.
-Right click the parent folder and go to properties.
-I did both of the following steps together, so I'm not 100% positive which fix it is, but I'm pretty sure it is the security one:
-I went into the sharing tab and selected Share.

In the new window, hit the drop down and select Everyone. Make sure it has Read/Write permissions. Click the share button at the bottom.

-Next, go to the security tab (Pretty positive this is what fixed it. While tinkering, I eventually forced a runtime error that specified that the program was not allowed file access). Click Edit under the first box.

In the new box, select Add.

In the search window, enter Everyone, then select OK.

Back on the Permissions box, highlight Everyone, and give it full control. Click Apply, then OK. Wait for it all to propagate. Then launch the program again. I got the base videos going, and it's working with my custom girls.

damn, I tried this solution and it also isn't working, at this point I'm getting close to giving up, I tried to see if it being on a different drive was a problem, no dice, tried installing it into Program Files x86, no dice, made sure that I set "Everyone" to full control, even transferred ownership to "Everyone" and it still didn't work, I'm going to retry somethings, but I'm running out of things to try and motivation to keep trying.

I'm running the latest iteration of 4.42

I'm running 4.42 ( 10/31/2020 ) just redownloaded and retried from scratch, got an error

"an error occurred while applying security information failed to enumerate objects in the container access denied"

the fix was to change the ownership of the file to "Everyone".

That's the same error I eventually got that was resolved with the permissions change.

Is the account you play under an administrator account or a regular user account?

I'm Using an admin account. tried everything that was suggested, switching videos causes the game to hard crash, clicking on the area the video should be causes the game to freeze, so nothing change on my end.

I hate that we've spent a month trying to figure this problem out, I love Virtual Fem, but god damn does it not love me back

I wonder what is your default media player.
Maybe you installed something that caused a conflict with the windows media player codecs (used by Virtual Fem to run the videos), and the game is unable to load those codecs and run properly.

Maybe you could make VLC your default media player, that's the one I use and I can run the Virtual Fem girls and the Paco's girls without problems, sorry if this sounds stupid or if you already did that, codec's issues are quite a mess and to format your pc seems the only solution so far, I hope you can fix it soon.

Hi
How the game evoluated ? I played a long time ago and I felt it was like a player for video.
The ai was so bad, you had to just put word to see the scene !
How this is now ? Is there an interrraction or still the same ?
thanks

In my case the software crushes once the video ends and it should be played again.
With all the patches I'm running the version 4.40. Would you know where can I download the latest software version (is it 4.42)?

ok, I found the issue to my problem and it had to do with the Nvidia Control Panel, for reference, I'm using a laptop with a GPU as well as integrated graphics.

The solution to the problem was to switch VirtualFem to using the Integrated Graphics instead of the "High Performance Nvidia Processor" (Supposedly the actual graphics card) that solve my issue,

I feel bad now though because something tangentially related, and not remotely related to the actual videos turned out to be the issue, and I've been working with tech support for 2 months on this issue.

There is a user name and password for the Virtual fem website on one of the pages, use that to get the latest, also try evildubdub's solutions, or if you are using a laptop, try the solution I just posted

A little late getting to this, but it hasn't really changed a whole lot. There is an emotion system that can be turned on and off, but I don't honestly see how it differs much from just using the states and locations already in the game engine.

I wouldn't suggest this at all for anyone looking for anything complex or interactive based on what the software provides on its own. I've used it for use to basically hold my own saved videos in a narrative way. I made about 35-40 of my own girls and wrote their reactions myself. My more involved characters have a few thousand records. I've never played around with the custom girls that people around the internet have made, so I can't speak to their general quality.

I think the main problem is to be limited by the content creator.
I mean, being a virtual girl, she's not going to make you a sandwich or doing a lapdance if the company shooting the scenes are only shooting traditional sex positions/scenes, and not enough 'extra content'.
That's why I like the stuff from ATKGirlfriends, FTV Girls and stuff, they tape their girls outdoors, swimming, driving, going to the casino, etc, so you have some variety there.

About the interaction, that improved somewhat since the early days, and you also have Paco doing spy, superheroine stories and stuff, so the game allows some depth and interaction, but having in mind that is always restricted to the available stuff.

Hey guys, I wonder if I can share some of the Paco's work here?
He is no longer posting on Pornbb, only on Discord, so maybe I could post that here or send the links to the OP to update the thread, because I only see the Pornbb stuff posted but not his most recent work.
