The first and ONLY thing I did was immediately blow him and take the job and he gave me 17%
I use to get between 17 and 21%, and mentioned how much money I brought in so I thought maybe the number got lowered but it seems I just had a bad roll.

It could had been the problem, I had bought a +2 Luck Sexy Dress but had the Step-Dad pill me in the morning so I never got the chance to wear it to the interview I'm guessing. It went from shower scene to job interview. :(

Anyone else have the issue of the UI being so large that your money amount isn't viewable? I have to decrease my screen font to 50% in order to view.

This happens when you view your outfit, the outfit pics are much longer than your face, so it moves everything down.
Switch back to the portait picture if you want to see all the stats (until this gets fixed).

Did the commission rates go down, cus I only got 13% after rocking my new boss's world. Not that it has a big impact in my sales, since I'm the Gordon Gekko (from 'Wall Street' -the movie) of x-change pills. lol

But annoyed my first three sales didn't make it with a 70-ish chance but that's what I get for not playing the game for some months.
It's based on your current stats - I believe it's the average of your current charm and intellect. In the upcoming 0.16c sub-update, I will be adding the new Hot n' Ready sales demo and the ability to further increase your commission rate.

Yeah, the UI is designed for square portraits, and I have all sorts of weird CSS trouble when I try to make the left pane scrollable, mainly that tooltips get stuck behind the middle div. I am just not that good at HTML/CSS, so I may try to get some help at this. But in the meantime, I consider the square portraits the "main" portraits. I may also just make square cropped versions of all the outfit images, since they aren't very large filesize wise. But there are 600+ outfits so its just a bit of work to do it.
where do i find the blackjack?
You can play it with male characters at the bar, when you're male.
Decoding a exported file in UTF-16LE worked fine...once. Then encoding it with just a minor tweak broke it. Now I do it again just like everyone posts in their screens (starting with Wwb7, ending before the ") but get chinese characters.
Somethings fucky.
I wanted to change the use of the clone pill back to Breeder, since I liked the effects more. Although I like some of the instabilitiy-perks you can get.

An Item to reverse the Pill (even if just a cheat item or even very expensive) would be nice. There are after all multiple ways to deytroy an identity and I want to go back to the faster of the two.
Ooh I like the idea of an expensive item that can reverse a pill.
3.8 GB is a bit much! Have you tried compressing? Usualy the smaller size media still look pretty good.
I'm afraid 3.8GB is after compressing every single video file. There are like over 1200 video clips, all around 10-15 seconds. The images are quite small by comparison. Recently I have been getting better compression by using Davinci resolve, but at the rate I'm adding media, the overall size of the game will likely just continue to grow over time.
Where can we find a discord link?

This is fun and all, but seeing that there may yet be multiple rewrites of events (as is common with this kind of game), are you certain voice acting is a great use of your resources? That feels like putting sprinkles on a cake that hasn't been mixed yet.
Adding voice lines here and there is actually only a tiny amount of effort, and it was just something I enjoyed experimenting with. Not sure to what degree I'll add voice lines for "flavor" in the future.
If anyone is interested, I changed the relationship to dad, sister/sis, brother/bro. Additionally changed the values of the required experience to obtain the levels of the main parameters: intellect, charm, fitness (too grindy for my taste)
It is also necessary to manually remove the step prefix from the names in the following places:
Two folders named stepsis and stepdad here "Your drive:\X-Change_Life_0.16\img\npc\family"
Three files named stepbro room.jpg, stepsis room.jpg, stepdad room.jpg here "Your drive:\X-Change_Life_0.16\img\places\home"
Just admiring the amount of work that went into this...

These are my current plans for the near future - my goal is to do one of these releases every 1-2 weeks, we'll see how that goes in reality:
  • 0.16a: expansion of the current sex scenes to more locations, adding more actions during sex, and post-sex statuses
  • 0.16b: the ability to invite NPCs you like back to your home to have sex there - but make sure stepdad or Alexia don't walk in on you!
  • 0.16c: the next sales demo - Hot n' Ready - going to be a really fun scene - have already started it
  • 0.16d: pregnancy added - at least, a barebones version of it - finally, those Breeder pills will have some real consequences
  • 0.16e: the next gym scene. Potentially a lesbian one, will probably make a subscriber poll...
  • 0.16f+: will take stock to see what else is missing from the current game state, before starting on 0.17 - starting to progress the story (mainly, starting to add more of a reason for doing things, adding more progression at the workplace, as well as some story events that I won't spoil)

Hoping that gym scene is indeed a lesbian one. Would love to see some lesbian love in this.

I do definitely have lesbians scenes planned. A lot of them will revolve around the Jia Lissa playable character, since she has some really incredible lesbian scenes.

I have play the game at the .15f version, I liked so far, no much content im afraid is mostly loot of videos.images porn with no replayability.
Also depending on your likings you can totally re-build version with only an only option to go (let say you want only be red hair go with that and erased every other option). This for saving espace drive since is a lot of download for current content (one might say is not worth)
Is worth mention that reading the changelog can make you realice to not expect things (this is early build yet).
So i just wanted to say this game have future and potential.
We can totally list a lot of bugs but im lazy so i only gonna mention the way the game interacts when you havent selected clothes and the stuck status when trying to change clothes while on washingmachine. Totally worth an stuck buttom that allow you to draw back in case of bug/stuck/freeze.
Good luck with the game, I will continue to look on this page (English second language duh!)

First off, I have said it before in a post already, but you make a terrific xchange game, looking forward to more! Now to specific things. I have a question: In the 0.15 version I was unable, no matter how I tactically played the scene, to gain enough serum orgasms to get through the Stripper event without backlash. Is it now possible in the new version?

I mentioned it in an older post, there is a less known but interesting xchange pill in this universe, the Xchange Surrogate. It is an offshot of the Breeder pill, mainly for couples where the husband wants to take over some child-bearing work for his spouse or where the woman is unable or very unlikely to get pregnant. The Surrogate is like the Breeder, heighened fertility, extremly strong orgasms when creampied, but you change back to male after the taker stops breastfeeding, if he got pregnant or after the effective time of the pill is over.

The kicker with the surrogate is the following, while after the first or second pregnancy with the pill only a minuscle number of men decide to keep taking long lasting xchange pills (e.g. xtra strenght) regularly, after the third it is a substantial number and after the fourth it is only a miniuscle number of men not taking long lasting exchange pills regularly.

Another topic, I find it great that you want to include scenarios where the MC takes xchange pills just for fun, not by compulsion! That the MC can find a girlfriend with whom he is happy and they take the pills just for fun and experimentation and not constantly (unless they want to). So lesbian or "Bestie group sex" with boys and girls are on the menu in later versions of the game. I find this really good, since I am fed up with all the forced, compulsion or addition scenarios.

Fair enough, that sounds like you have your priorities set, which is good. Nothing worse than a dev who doesn't know what they want.
Since online play sometimes takes a good while to load, would it be possible to have "update files" instead of/in addition to the full download in the opening post? The more your game grows, the easier it'll be for you and for your fanbase to keep up to date.

Yeah, it’s a good idea to do an update release. I just need to find a tool where I can easily compare current and previous release files, and create the upgrade/incremental version. There’s got to be a way to automate that right? It’s just too many changed files to keep track of manually.

An expensive reverse Pill for cloning would indeed be nice. But it either "adds" a perk (maybe even something related to the pill, or something general if it is a "basic" pill/clone), or simply keeps the existing one you already got.
I would however also prefer that the first DNA donation doesnt just give a 20% Discount (which is nice) but also a "3-day or 2-day Trial", in which you can freely experience the perks of your chosen form no matter if you chose to go 2-months or not. The reasoning behind this is that you can get a free reverse Pill as long as you dont surpass the 2-3 Day trial, up to 3 times total or until a single trial has run out to discourage scumming. You still need to pay upfront, but you can get your money back. After which paying for the expensive Pill with its side-effects (actions have consequences) becomes the only way.
It may sound complicated, but I simply did not know that the Breeder pill is so much better than using cloning and now im stuck for quite some time with that form because refreshing the pill was a bit tedious.

I would also like to say: thank you. The game has some neat sillyness, corporate scummyness, and the dangerous atmosphere you built surrounding the dumb-bitch pill event really tempted me to save scum just to see "what if". If you get the time and more saveslots, maybe you can create a gameplay loop after the game overs, so that you live your consequences in a small circle of events with a small amount of options. With that you can really hammer in the corruption the player character has found himself in. I am a sucker for the corruption Gonzales tries to impose upon you and trying to resist it with all your effort but falling for it having some consequences. I wish meeting the same NPC's again and again can cause similar "events".
The sex scenes have a nice tempo. choosing to play a game of it, and even seeing the action when rolling the dice with all these hypnotic-style inner thoughts or quotes fitting to the character is while not unique in itself, unique in the sense that it is done well and entertaining.
Triggering scenes with the step-dad and maybe breeder Pill by just talking to him after the inital events as a maid while wearing the maid dress voluntarily or using different fetishwear would be an interesting line of events for each clothing type. This could be also transferred to meeting NPCs in 0.16b, where a growing dom/sub relationship could evolve and fetishes could be influenced depending on what clothing the PC wears when greeting the NPC.

There are two command line programs for this: rsync and diff. These are 2 unix (linux and macos) programs.

An example using diff:
Code:
user@machine: $ ls ./
a b
user@machine: $ ls a
fileA.txt  fileB.txt  fileC.txt
user@machine: $ ls b
fileA.txt  fileB.txt  fileD.txt
user@machine: $ diff --brief --recursive a b
Files a/fileB.txt and b/fileB.txt differ
Only in a: fileC.txt
Only in b: fileD.txt
You can see that fileA.txt is the same, fileB.txt has changed, fileC.txt does not exist in folder b and fileD.txt does not exist in folder a.
--brief will make the output only show one line for each file that has a change, instead of showing all the changes for each file.
--recursive will allow it to also dive into subfolders (although my example has no subfolders).
A shorter form is diff -qr a b
You could use grep to print only the lines that has "differ", or only the lines that has "Only in a:" or "Only in b:".
Code:
user@machine: $ diff --brief --recursive a b | grep "differ"
Files a/fileB.txt and b/fileB.txt differ
user@machine: $ diff --brief --recursive a b | grep "Only in a:"
Only in a: fileC.txt
user@machine: $ diff --brief --recursive a b | grep "Only in b:"
Only in b: fileD.txt
An example using rsync:
Code:
user@machine: $ ls
a b c
user@machine: $ ls a
fileA.txt  fileB.txt  fileC.txt
user@machine: $ ls b
fileA.txt  fileB.txt  fileD.txt
user@machine: $ ls c # empty
user@machine: $ rsync -vcrP --stats --compare-dest=../a/ ./b/ ./c/
sending incremental file list
fileB.txt
             30 100%    0.00kB/s    0:00:00 (xfr#1, to-chk=1/4)
fileD.txt
             19 100%   18.55kB/s    0:00:00 (xfr#2, to-chk=0/4)

Number of files: 4 (reg: 3, dir: 1)
Number of created files: 1 (reg: 1)
Number of deleted files: 0
Number of regular files transferred: 2
Total file size: 56 bytes
Total transferred file size: 49 bytes
Literal data: 49 bytes
Matched data: 0 bytes
File list size: 0

sent 295 bytes  received 55 bytes  700.00 bytes/sec
total size is 56  speedup is 0.16
user@machine: $ ls c
fileB.txt  fileD.txt
The slashes after each folder name is important. The dot slash before each folder name is also important.
flag -v and -P and --stats only makes it print a bunch of stuff on screen. flag -c makes rsync compare files by checksum. flag -r makes it dive into subfolders. --compare-dest is the folder, which path is relative to being inside folder c, that has the inital state for files and subfolders. b is the folder that has the final state for files and subfolders. c is the folder where the changes will be placed, leaving folder a intact.
In other terms, it calculates a delta of files which is b MINUS a, which RESULTS in the things that b has but a doesn't.
The things that a has but b doesn't, are ignored, so you won't have them listed.
This is good to make differential zip files for updates. The only downside, is that those differentials won't hold the information regarding the deleted files, because they only have what is new. So a person downloading these differential zip files, will have all the new files plus all the delete/unused ones in their computer.
You could make a script to delete all the unused files (you can see a list of them by issuing: diff -qr a b | grep "Only in a:"), and make it available for the user to run, if they wanted to. But windows scripts and unix scripts use different syntax, so you would have to make 2 available. I could help you with that. Or you just give the list of deleted files and the user could delete them with their own hands.
