VN Ren'Py Where the Heart Is [S1 Rev1] [CheekyGimp]

I think I am experienced a bug. Playing episode 15 atm and Monica breaks up with me no matter what I choose. googlint (and adding f95) brought me here and someone said u need Monicas + some of Zarahs conditions over 350.
Here comes the bug: I think whenever Monicas lust and love stats (I think thats how they are called?) gets into one stat, they dont get added. Tried loading previous saves from earlier episodes and some stats for Monica are like 163/194 117/172 (I think its maybe episode 14 or so). But during photoshoot it is 178/442 and obviously even with some Zarah stat (love stat I think?) I cant get to 350. So is it a bug or my answers fucked it up?

Monica does require a pretty high overall stats to woo her. You can make wrong answers and lose points. I'd either roll back some eps and use a walkthrough/walkthrough mod, or use the console and cheat some stats if you know how.

Oh, and the Zarah stat that helps there is a temp bonus one that helps if you were nice to her, especially during the photo shoot. But only adds a max of around 13 bonus points. Also Monica's stats don't combine until you pass that R + L check to finally get her to commit to a relationship/sex.

The MC character development can be a mixed bag. As a general rule, most players seem to prefer something of a blank slate character wise to immerse in. So you have to do your best to make him a general everyman (erring on the pervy side) who has a lot of natural advantages. Then let the choices craft the character the player wants to play.

This is probably my one small gripe with this game. By Episode 17 somethings have happened and the MC needs to pull his finger out and do something .... anything, to take a proactive role in sorting the mess out but i suppose from his characters point of view he's just going with the flow and enjoying the tidal wave of female attention (Who wouldn't love that!?)
Will our main guy start to take a more active roll in trying to sort some stuff out going forward or will he be stuck being the luckiest mo-fo and never see what's coming? Cheers.

You underestimate the impact of what your MC has been doing so far and the girls you get involved with and how much you trust them. The arc where you see just where this will lead you is coming up fast though. Then you will see there could be more than one path to get what you want, whatever that may be.

Even if pursuing 1 girl or 2/3 I always try to at least keep up decent relationship points with the others, targeting those instead of lust points. Should help rather than hinder going forward rather than hating/dismissing. Get on the hate/distrust trail and problems will surely be around the corner.

I never used that walkthrough mod, yet downloaded/installed it now for testing purpose.
Im using unofficial uncompressed game version and the best/suggested? choices are "normal", while all other choices are greyed out. Is that what those choices should look alike or not?
In any case I think it is playable in that way for those using walkthrough mod.

unfortunately for me all the choices are white. Nothing is greyed out. I guess it's just trial and error for now.

This is how it should look with the mod installed correctly

"Give her a hug" is the better option.
This mod is the one used in the picture

Hi folks,
Just a quick update to say thanks a lot for all of the patience waiting for episode 17. We got there in the end.
Based on where we were a couple of months ago, I'm reasonably happy with how it turned out. But there are a couple of things that are bugging me, so I plan on releasing a patch very soon.

Thanks,

CG & Team.

So is harem gonna be a thing? Coming from sisterly lusty I pretty much enjoy a community harem. But from the choices previously I'm not so sure

I take it you haven't played the game yet or you'd already know.

None of the girls show any signs of being willing to share in fact most of the demand a 1 on 1 relationship.

Given that and the pages of discussion and the devs saying "there won't be a harem" then no, there won't be a harem.

Not only does it not fit any of the characters it wouldn't fit the story.

Afraid that is the proverbial "soon". I don't want to let too much go that isn't already confirmed via Cheeky/paetron. Especially for those patreons of ours who don't visit this particular forum who could be left out of the little previews.

That's fair enough. "Soon" is good enough. Can't wait. Might even dip into patreon, i'm loving this game so far.

Hey, me again, sorry for asking again but I found out a bit more:
I am losing stats at the very start of episode15. I am ending episode 14 with 163/194 117/172 for Monica, it says save your game etc and as soon as episode15 starts, stats go lower (you get a dream where Monica is trying to wake you up and asking why you fucked her daughter. maybe it wasnt even dream lol). Stats go 163/442 in the love (stat column with heart symbol) and nothing in lust (lips symbol).
So what is the way to prevent this? to not sleep with Jenna? some better answers? dont want to replay all game right now to reach that point, invested lots of hours and fucked up my only save that wasnt that far tbh cant even go back to NOT sleeping with Jenna without loosing like 3 episodes

 

[Ozymandias]

Ozymandias Maybe this game isn't for you either, given how you react to all posts that reiterate the stance of the devs.

I was very confused, so I went to check and that's an Ozymandius (with the u), haha. Never even heard of this game so I was really thrown for a sec. Anyway, back to lurking.

As long as it's not a "Blizzard"-soon

Gumdrop-soon? You might as well snap me out of existence before I'm willing to wait "gumdrop-soon" for the next update. (lol)

Hmmmm. I wonder if that is a side effect of us implementing the stat screen call from the menu... Even if it is though, I think your lust is still set, just not visible. Phalzyr Thoughts? The Monica stats shouldn't be combined until the very end of EP 15 when you finally get inside her. Were you using any other mods Okyturi?

Just to note that sleeping with both Jenna and Monica could very well end badly for you.

Monica tells you not to touch her kids and only groupings that make sense are going to happen. Not telling you what to do just letting you know you may be in for a shit time in future episodes.
