Hmm. I crash immediately when loading it with a no matrix module error. Is that the same for you?

The No module named matrix error means the save was made with a different version of the Ren'Py engine than what you're running. Sometimes happens when compressors build with a different version of Ren'Py versus the official game for example.

More detailed description of error

In that love choice menu need CDate >= 2 for Jolina to be offered as first choice.

CDate = -5 in Maviarab's save.

This menu lacks an option not to choose anyone. As doesn't meet the requirements for any girls, can't exit this menu.

The Jolina (157) and JolinaL (100) values are also much lower than mine at this point (var dump from saveeditonline attached).

No idea how CDate got to -5 when Maviarab was exclusively pursuing Jolina though, as any of the normal game play choices causing -CDate are obviously bad choices.

Ah, good work Meushi.
That is something we did not account for. Choosing girls when you actually don't have one of them with a positive date value. Will fix that hole in the bug fix.

Yes, that's what I meant by any of the normal game play choices causing -CDate are obviously bad choices.

But that shouldn't have happened in Maviarab's playthrough, as he said he was only romancing Jolina, so presumably didn't make any of those bad choices (he'd need to confirm though).

I'd suspect something else screwed up the variables regardless of the actual choices made by Maviarab and Mr. Friendly's in their single girl playthroughs, but haven't seen anything obvious yet.

I most likely didn't have a high enough value but I don't believe I saved that playthrough. I will take a look.

I was playing through with the idea of the MC having casual sex, treating Monica and the girls as family (so only friendly and no sex). The MC wouldn't want to leave cut off contact with them for money (so chose girls) and yet didn't have someone he was romancing (tried with Angel but I must have screwed that up).

 

[Cigar-Ferras]

I think Katie is the hottest. I'd say Debbie 2nd and Lilly or Jolina 3rd

Ah yes, I like the cut of your jib, Sir!

I was thinking of doing a playthrough pretty much exactly like this, with the only exception being - Bang Natasha! Purely for the sake of justice, of course! Everyone else though .... Nah, probably safer not to until we know more, just in case MC decides to keep the option open of taking the money.

I don't even care about the money anymore, I just don't want my MC to be played for a fool.

I'm not chasing the money either, but might as well have 1 save with an option to take it should I want to go that route. (Probably won't use it though)

I have a money save with Angel and Wanda. That's the only save I have. I'm going to expand on that when I know more. A Katie save is a must, same with Deb/Lily. One with Elaine. Of course conditional on them not trying to mess with my hero. That's about it I think.

No loads fine...seems that error been figured out.

I think it's caused by carrying a save over from EP17 prior to the bug fix release then. But not sure.

Nope was new save from Ep18 update. Have restarted all my saves.

Yeah all those saves died. I had to replay the game when 18 came out. My hard drive died in September, beginning of the month iirc. Definitely didn’t have saves from as far back as may.

Also completely restarted with the Ep18 update.

Going to be my next save exactly the same hah!

Ahhh interesting...good job Meushi! Nope...did all girls as I would normally (if romancing) until the point where you can cancel (so katie in her room after the party, Jenna after the museum, Bella on sofa when she wants to kiss etc etc) then chose not to pursue.

Ah, good work Meushi.

Excellent. Again, was not an issue, was just bringing to your attention as remember friendly having a similar issue. I can quick start or wait for the fix. Thanks for looking into.

 

[DarkDestro]

Im curious about something. Is this the game where the incest part wasnt intended at all and the incest patch is "messing" up the story abit?
I remember reading something like that about a game a few days ago but i cant recall which game it was. But this one rings a bell.

Cause im concidering playing this game again (played it last at like ep 8 or something) but i dont want to play with the incest patch if it "ruins" the game

in my opinion its better with out incest patch, if u use it it will change the story alot.

Ah perfect, yeah thats what i wanted to know. Highly appreciated Going to play it as soon as i find those pesky save files

They added a new quick start option where you can set all your choices and skip to episode 8 so you don't need your save files if you remember your choices.

This was never intended as an incest game.

There is a mod but it changes quite a bit of the story and leaves a lot of plot holes.

Oh nice! Thanks for that info, saves me alot of time since i played it last om my very old laptop xD.

Yeah don't want that happening, going with the original then thanks.

It's one of the beach renders of Jade from Being a DIK which is a pretty good game and something you check out if you haven't before.

Yeah is a great feature.
His profilepic looks like Jade from Being a DIK.

Omg i swear she was actually the one i thought it was at first but i didnt see her like that in the game so i thought it was someone similar.
Its too bad its not someone similar tbh, wouldve been nice to find more of her style.

Yeah i have followed BADIK since the start of their journey but didnt play the last update until last night.
Thanks !
