House Party 0.14.0 Released to Alpha Testers

If you are already an Alpha Patron or would would like to learn how to become one click here.

Our first Alpha for LetyDoesStuff and her new story is here!

BEFORE you hop into Lety’s new content: be aware that we’re adding some heavy-hitting features this update, including some interactive items that aren’t quite camera-ready. To get them looking as best they can, we’ve added placeholder assets to serve as these items in the current story. When these items are ready, oh man, they’re gonna look slick. 

The story itself is halfway complete for this Alpha. You’ll notice there is a moment where things can’t continue for Lety’s new story, but there’s still a lot here. Our writer and producer have been working to bolster AI behavior (more reactions, etc) and Lety herself is a great example of the work they’ve done so far, with much more to come. 

So please enjoy, and know that your support keeps us going! Now it’s Miller time.

Changelog:

• Added new character: Lety
• Added a new IK animation where NPCs will open doors before walking through them instead of the awkward “bump into the door and step backwards” mechanic
• Added some temporary background chatter lines as placeholders that will be replaced with actual character voice acting
• Added new lighting situation for better character rendering and better performance.
• Revamped disclaimer screen
• Revamped credits screen
• Added Whizbanger Firecracker Poppers box
• Added Popper model
• Added Popper explosion effect + SFX
• The WhereIs console command has been changed to the CharInfo console command. It now shows the same info as the “WhereIs” command did, but also queued Mandatory move targets, if a pose is being used, if an NPC has an intimacy partner, and additional real-time info about the specified character
• Debug Logs will now be saved automatically when quitting to the main menu, restarting a game, or loading a game from the in-game ESC menu
• Added in new SendEvent game event that will animate a character to turn towards and then reach for an item (best used with items at knee height or lower)
• Fixed issues that were preventing beer pong practice from working as intended with the newly revamped Grab functionality and/or preventing the Player’s practice score from appearing
• Added new global Item Function: AddPhysicsRigidBody, which will allow story creators to make any item “physics enabled” (can be pushed, etc.) but not necessarily grabbable
• Fixed an issue where the inventory no longer displayed properly after a combat event
• Added door sounds that were missing from some doors
• Fixed an issue with some of Ashley’s intimacy sounds being too queit

• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause Frank to react aggressively to the Player when talking to Rachael about her Thermos, even when Frank is concussed after running into the downstairs bathroom door
• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause the Player to Loot the condom from Frank’s unconscious body even if they hadn’t discovered that step in the Scavenger Hunt. The player must now be on the “condom step” of the Scavenger Hunt while looting Frank’s body to obtain it. Why else would you just take a pocket-condom, you fucking savage?
• In the Original Story: fixes an issue that would cause conversation options about the condom to still appear when talking to Frank, even if the Player had the condom/passed that point in Amy’s Scavenger Hunt
• In the Original Story: groping Rachael while in “VR Mode” as part of the new content will no longer result in any negative consequences
• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause Rachael to harass the Player about his intentions more than once after you grab the painkillers for Patrick
• In the Original Story: Frank wasn’t reacting to Katherine being given the Tampered Rum right in front of him. He cares now
• In the Original Story: tweaked how Derek and Madison are able to see the Player when you take the Credit Card from the computer desk. They can now see you still if they are very close to the window, but NOT if they are further out in the yard or in/near the gazebo
• In the Original Story: the Player no longer has to have met Leah to trigger the intro events of “Screw Like a Bee”. Alternate dialogue added to handle both situations
• In the Original Story: added provisions to greatly reduce the chance that Rachael first confronts Patrick about his website in the middle of Madison’s Art Show
• In the Original Story: Frank will try a bit harder to actually look at the art the Player is showing off during Madison’s Art Show, if he is in attendance
• In the Original Story: Derek will no longer attempt to socialize with other NPCs while he is guarding Madison after locking her in the bathroom, and for the remainder of the “The Muse” and its sub-Opportunities, until the Player either completes or fails out of them
• In the Original Story: adjustments to minor story events during Madison’s “Like a French Girl” Paint-and-Pose sequence
• In the Original Story: the Player can no longer move around after Madison invites them to “entertain” themselves in front of her. Meaning no more running into the closet and fapping in the shadows, you deviant
• In the Original Story: Madison will no longer attempt to socialize with other NPCs during the events of her “art show” and up through the finale of “The Muse”. I mean, it’s all about the art anyway, amirite?
• In the Original Story: minor tweaks to story events across Madison’s “Magnum Opus” opportunity/content
• In the Original Story: the Player can no longer use the “Set Free” option on the Penguin if they are mid-Intimacy, as this could cause the Penguin to fall through the ground or into other objects rather easily
• In the Original Story: fixed a VA-Dialogue mismatch in one of Derek’s “Art Show” lines
• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause Madison’s “Magnum Opus” finale to break if the player pleasured themselves to a crescendo near her

• In the Original Story: fixed an issue with a repeatable dialogue response of Derek’s that is used during “High and Dry” that could cause the Player to only be able to see a helpful hint once, instead of multiple times

• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause NPCs to roam towards the Player or Madison just before “Magnum Opus” was initiated

• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause Madison to use an Angry emote if the Player “finished” on her while “Magnum Opus” was In Progress
• In the Original Story: minor tweaks to Save/Load behaviors specific to “Magnum Opus” and the finale of “The Muse”
• In the Original Story: fixed a few minor typos
• In the Original Story: fixed several issues that could cause the Player, Patrick, and Rachael to encounter some wacky and potentially game-breaking issues if they gave pursued Benedict Brahrnold, gave Patrick the thermos, and then also attempted to continue parts of Ashley’s “Sibling Warfare”/prank content
• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that could cause Patrick to walk away from the Gazebo area towards the end of “Patty’s Striking Resemblance” (“Cloud of Mystery” path) and engage in “antics” anywhere
• In the Original Story: much like how Patrick can overhear the Player telling Frank to beat him up and voice a line about being “betrayed”, Patrick can now also overhear the Player lying to Madison about him stealing things
• In the Original Story: ensured that Patrick has to be able to actually see the betrayal (via Frank or Madison being sent to beat him up) take place in order to react, as opposed to only needing to overhear it
• In the Original Story: additional minor tweaks (event timing, order of operations, etc.) to ensure certain niche combinations of Patrick-Rachael and pre 0.13.3 content do not lead to cosmetic/awkward interactions

• In A Vickie Vixen Valentine: made sure the Compubrah briefcase items were disabled
• In A Vickie Vixen Valentine: fixed an issue that could cause the Painkillers (Allergy Meds) to bug out AFTER Vickie “takes them” from the Player. This does NOT fix the issue with the Painkillers/Allergy Meds hanging in midair after opening the kitchen cabinet door
• In A Vickie Vixen Valentine: fixed an issue that was causing the Painkillers/Allergy Meds to float in midair after opening the kitchen cabinet
• In A Vickie Vixen Valentine: fixed an issue that was causing the Painkillers/Allergy Meds to potentially fall through the floor after falling out of the kitchen cabinet
• In the Original Story: fixed an issue that would allow the Player to request that Rachael sign the Petition for Derek’s Shirt multiple times
