Version 0.43a released

Version 0.43a has been released and you can find the link on the download page as well as a link for a torrent to download the latest version.


You can find the update notes for the game on the update notes page. Some things to keep in mind:


  • If you have been following the experimental builds (as in downloading each one) you won't find that much new depending on the last version you've downloaded. 
  • For those that haven't downloaded the game since 0.35a, there's been quite a few changes including:
    • A new character creation system.
    • New locations.
    • Many new events.
    • A new sexual encounter
    • New potions and recipes
    • Redone body transformations
    • Gathering events to get items rather then mixing them in with random events.
    • A TON of bug fixes (even though there are still bound to be bugs)
Also, VERY IMPORTANT:

If your spells are broken, which they are very likely to be, right click on the game window while in game to bring up the menu (or click on the --> arrow). Scroll to the bottom of the menu and you will see DEBUG, it's sadly obscured in black until you mouse over it. Once you mouse over it, select FIX SPELLS. This will reset all of the spell related quests you've done sadly, but it should delete the old broken spell data from your character.

  1. Nice, just to be sure, there is no difference from this build and the last experimental build? Also the torrent is working for me. ^^

  2. There are some differences b/w this and 0.43a (the experimental build):

    -Spells work correctly :P
    -Two new highway events
    -Bug fixes with character creation

  3. I'll wait two or three days for people to find things on their own before I start the wiki updates. Don't want to take the fun out of finding new content.

    1. Also it will probably take me that long to find the new content myself, I haven't touched the game at all since the last stable build.

  4. Thanks for responding Tacoking! As for the spells not working correctly in the 0.43a experimental build I did not notice any. Not sure if this is a bug I did find however I can't obtain Coffee bean, it reads I find one and its use is apparent but none shows up in inventory, or is this working as intended?

  5. Basically spells would delete themselves when you saved your game. I made some changes in earlier versions to try and fix this, but that would cause them not to show up at all until I finally fixed it for good in this version.

    Coffee beans may be a new bug ><

    1. Ahh... now that you mention it I do remember that spell bug. Glad it is fixed ^^ On a different subject, is it possible or will be possible to interact further with Rose? (I believe that was here name)

  6. Got a equipment bug, well I think I've seen this same bug before. Basically whenever I buy equipment from the store it takes my money but the equipment never shows up on the equipment screen.

    I haven't tested this out with highway merchant yet because I'm to scared to go there with no armor or weapons.

    1. I have this problem too.

    2. The game is searching for the file eqdb.peqdb in whatever directory you last saved to. If this isn't the base directory for the game (where eqdb.peqdb actually resides), equipment goes wonky. Simply saving to the directory it wanted fixed things for me.

    1. Also, thepiratebay.se is now blocked in some countries. So (also) putting it up elsewhere is advisable.(Proxies aren't that newbie friendly after all.)

    1. Started game and ... "On the top of your head rests a pair of," "right above your bum is a tail that s about." (< No reason to have a tail) "Height: 1920cm. " (?) "0 feet and 6 inches" (< No metric system, even though i selected it)

    2. Yeah, I've eaten two neko fruit, and I'm not sure if the ears and tail description are messed up from that or were borked from the beginning. I haven't gotten any popup notifications of physical changes yet.

  12. Anyone else have an issue where saving/loading (especially quickload) will populate the equipment list with a ton of duplicates? I currently have like 16 shirts, pants, and boots, and at least that many fists (lol). I can't even drop all the extra fists. And some categories (chest for one) seem to get multiple "nothing" entries.


    I'm guessing you've got a bug in your serialize/deserialize function for the save XML that's not populating your VB collections how you expect, and when you save again after getting that bad load, it compounds the issue. Do you have a function adding in boots/pants/shirt entries when the list is empty. That could also be the issue.

    1. I thought I had fixed this, interesting...I believe what it does is check to see if you have the equipment file in your game directory. If it fails to find it, it will then populate the list....I have a theory that the problem may lie within the way I'm calling the application directory. I know there are two ways to do it, one is the correct way and the other doesn't work all the time (at least I remember reading something to that effect)...I'm guessing knowing my luck I am using the incorrect method :P

    2. I think it's finding the file okay. It sees my old equipment most of the time, it just keeps adding more each time I save/load.

    3. Hmmm, I still wasn't able to reproduce this. That said I did redo the way it finds the directory so hopefully next build it will be fixed.

      I checked the code, the only reason it adds new equipment is because it cannot find a file. Basically it tries to load the pqs.peqdb file if you quick load and an identical .peqdb file if you load a character file. If that doesn't exist it generates a new set of starting equipment. If the next build STILL doesn't seem to fix this, I'll try to add code to avoid duplicates of those equipment items as well...though I'd rather not have to not out of laziness, but because that means it's loading something incorrectly somewhere and I've still not addressed the issue.

  13. Why does the new character creator award less attribute stats to allocate?

    I discovered this when I was trying to pinpoint bugs in the appearance descriptions.

  14. well thanks to frustration and little help

    im quitting from even trying to play this game i manage to play the earlier version so i already had all of the neccessary extra crap that really serves no other purpose on my computer i had already deleted the old game because i had little children who know how to use the computer coming over for a few days to visit so ya and now i fingd myself hating this game cause of the sheer lack of installation ability i am going back to the less frustrating game of slave maker, sim brothel, curruption of champions, nims fetish fantasy, heck even flexible survival single player and mmo versions have given me less hassle than this game even when they required extra programs

    1. All the instructions for how to play the game were there, I'm sorry you had trouble figure them out. I highly encourage you to play whatever game makes you happy. All of the games you listed are great, it's why we link to them. I understand that installing Microsoft executables can be difficult, particularly when there are two of them, so I wish you the best of luck, thanks for trying ^_^. You should also never play a game like this or slavemaker if you have children coming over. They have a way of finding everything on a computer! I'd recommend deleting your history so they don't mistakenly browse to the sites you mentioned as well.

    2. Also, a google search of your issue turned up this: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/vbgeneral/thread/549ec74f-5a52-4273-aaf9-8743ca85026e/

      It actually sounds like you're going to have other problems in the future (as you likely have conflicting software on your computer) so I'd make sure I took steps to figure this out.

  15. Having my stamina run out during a sex scene in the brothel resulted in a game crash. Did that happened to anyone else?
