Will be added eventually, although I don't have an estimate yet of when that will be - it's probably the single most challenging kink to implement in the game. I will need to implement a system for that first (think SexLab Creature Framework) before you can mod in extra races and creatures etc. Stay tuned!

Will, hah, that include any hypothetical crossbreeding??

[Strec]

Personaly I'm very interesting in the modding of LP but I will wait some times to see how evoluates the accessibility and sharing of datas before launching any real mod (my fetishes are enslaving and/or breeding).

Mainly the problems I see are : 

 - how to determine a new type of location, reserved for a mod 

 - how to lock a NPC to avoid it beeing accessed by standard events (if I store some slaves in cells I don't want them to pop and dialogue when I'm at the nightclud :p)

 - how to be sure that the modification my mod applies on the datas won't be erased or modified 

 

A lot of work

Just wanted to say that I've been following the game and really loving the work being put into it. There are obviously some areas that are rough around the edges, but it looks like you're working on that. From my perspective, the UI improvements are definitely going to be helpful. The better character models as the original ones seemed a bit of a weakness to me. Not meaning to be critical, just trying to be candid.  A main menu with FAQ's and such to ease new players in would be tremendously helpful as well, as I personally felt that trying to get into the game was a bit confusing at first. Not knowing what could be done, or how to go about doing it, or what the things I was seeing meant. Like, being thrown into the big city and knowing that you'd need a place to stay and a place to work, but really not having much of an idea of how to resolve those things or what all of those buildings around you were for was a bit overwhelming. Again I know this is all stuff you're working on, so I think that you're definitely on the right track! I'm hoping that once the game becomes a little more accessible to random users then the modding scene for it will get a kickstart in turn. At least that's my hope.  But mostly I just wanted to say awesome work and that I'm definitely looking forward to how things develop!

v1.13 Sneak Peek: Title Screen

As the result of the previous poll and as part of the UI overhaul in v1.13, LifePlay finally gets a title screen (in the screenshot, 'Quick Start' is being hovered over and the default male character is playing the idle animation). For those that voted 'no title screen', don't worry, the Quick Start button will do exactly what the game used to do immediately on startup (load last save or start a new default game), so it's just one extra click.

I've been thinking. Making a photo-realistic model of a person is obviously extremely hard and takes a long time. The new model looks pretty great, but considering the scale and ambition of this game it could be hard to supply it with so many photo-realistic models. So I wanted to ask, do you think it would be possible to make more stylized models, at least for the beginning of the development? I think that if the models and by enlarge visuals of the game are good, it will bring a lot of eyes on a project. I've been playing Koikatu recently and even though I prefer more realistic stuff, I absolutely love the character models in that game. Here are some examples if no one here played it:

 

Spoiler

Of course that is just a suggestion, if you don't think it's right i understand 100%.

 

Either way, I just wanted to say that I absolutely love this project and I will try to spread word about it as much as I can. My hope would be for this game to become an ultimate and a go-to adult game.

The game actually already has a sort of 'stylized' option: Esc > Settings > Toon Shading

This makes the characters look like in Borderlands. I deliberately added this option for this reason: avoiding the uncanny valley etc

The guy making the new models is the same guy that made the current models, so when he's finished, it should be just a direct upgrade. 

It depends on people's expectations really: photorealistic like an AAA game made in 2018? Never gonna happen unfortunately. More realistic than the current character models and something along the line of CBBE characters for Oldrim? Entirely possible, we just have to be patient.

Arf, LP won't be a AAA game? It's diseapointing

It will be very very good, and it will be difficult to be patient ?

LifePlay v1.13 Released!

- UI overhaul that hopefully is both more visually appealing and user friendly
- A title screen so that the player gets to choose exactly what to load, while retaining the ability to quickload/quickstart
- Expand the sex worker career with brothels, stripclubs (use Edit Building on an existing/ unknown building on your map to make these) and the ability to actively seek out porn shoots rather than just waiting for the director to call you
- Modeling career, with a path into the porn industry from nude modeling
- Many scenes leading to sex will now trigger easily when hanging out with a high-peversion NPC, partly to balance out with the corruption update a few versions back that had many scenes leading to sex with low-perversion NPCs.
- Ability to murder a specific NPC
- Ability to headhunt existing contacts to hire as employees for your businesses
- Ability to quit university, medical and criminal careers and leave fraternities
- 11 new maps: Vilnius, Krakow, Richmond BC, Ulaanbaatar, Lincoln NE, El Paso, Oklahoma City, Louisville, Milwaukee, Albuquerque & Sacramento. Keep your requests coming!
- If a building near an edge of the screen is selected, the action menu will now adjust its position to fit the screen
- A simple confirmation to exit popup to help prevent you from unintentionally closing the game
- A Frequenly Asked Questions menu in-game
- Bug fixes and other improvements

[Grom424]

Very cool! Thank you kindly for taking suggestions into consideration.

[vinfamy]

Plans for v1.14 - ETA: 8 - 11 Nov
- Add consequences for player actions and decisions: death (game over), prison, STD, etc (with cheat options for those who don't want to be bothered with these) 
- Prison porn trope: sex between inmates, inmate-guard, conjugal visits, etc
- Go through the 500+ scenes currently in the game again and fix inconsistencies and oversights in trigger conditions (for example: meeting someone randomly while you're masturbating, hanging out with a non-incest relative triggers corruption scenes) 
- More actions (non-sexual obviously) to take as a parent raising your kids 
- ~ 10 new maps. Keep your requests coming!
- Optional (can be disabled in Esc > Settings) conditions for sex positions: for example, a low-perversion partner may turn down anal sex, or a low-fitness player cannot perform aggressive carry
- A few tweaks to the modeling career added in v1.13, according to the community's feedbacks
- A setting option that prevents the game from ever auto-unpausing unless you manually unpause
- A % chance setting (disabled by default) in the 'Customize NPC Distribution' menu that allows fantasy features (elven ears, orcish teeth, etc) in generated NPCs
- Bug fixes and other improvements

Estimated Release Date: 8 - 11 Nov

Since i don´t have any Skyrim Playthrough ideas, sure why not. Looks pretty good already.

I just discovered this project and it's honestly looks impressive so far! This may be already answered but, how does one go about downloading new updates? (do you have to uninstall the previous verison and install the new one?) And how do you transfer older saves into the updated version?

 

Sorry if this seems like an obvious question but I'm quite new to all this.

Just download the 'Update Only' file in either the Mega or Mediafire folders, and extract, copy and overwrite your old version (as long as you old version isn't older than 1.10), your old saves should work right away. If they're not working, when you try to load them, you will receive a message in game to tell you what's wrong and how to fix it.

Hey VinFamy, I absolutely love your game. I am amazed you keep things updating so regularly. *throws confetti*

I can't wait what other things there will be added with time. I also love the video where you introduced a new character looks... top...

 

I can't wait what all is going to come up next... Some things in my mind that I really love to see in the game...  sadly due to Patreo guide lines, most of that will probably be a difficulty to put inside the game...

 

Keep going... you rock.

Thank you for the kind post.

Patreon guidelines won't make much difference honestly. The game already is built around modding since day 1. If some content is banned on Patreon ( like non-consensual and bestiality), I can just distribute them as mods (using an alias if needed). It would just be a simple extra download and extract for most players. 

Besides, incest and non-consensual has been in the game as optional modules since v1.2 (just a simple Ctrl + M in game will show this) and my Patreon is 3-month-old. They still haven't realized this yet. As long as I don't make it too obvious in my Patreon posts, I don't think they go around and play every game to check.

Hey Everyone,

 

can someone happen to explain how children are growing up and how long it normaly takes if one doesn't change the setting. A second question would be how does the setting to that work ... making a child grow up faster so it doesn't take 18 in game years and is there anything aside of childcare that one needs to do or is that going to be enough to raise a child successfully... and last but not least... is there any action one needs to do in order for the child to raise or will it just grow up without you noticing...

Thank you in advance

They will just grow up without you noticing, no action to take. Check the child's entry in the contacts menu (hotkey P) you will see their age.

It takes 18 years in game by default, you can increase the setting to make this past faster.

In the next versions though, I plan to add more interactions with your child to raise them and impact their final stats when they reach adulthood.

Poll: Animations to make next?
As you may have noticed, I have restrained from making new sex animations for the past couple of months to focus on other pressing areas of the game like career paths, UI, skin shader and (upcoming in v1.14 this weekend) consequences of player actions. 
Now that these features are out of the way, I think it would be fitting to dedicate the last 3 updates of 2018 (v1.15 - late Nov, v1.16 - early Dec, v1.17 - Christmas/NY) mainly to making new animations. Of course, these new animations will come with new actions and events that allow the player to trigger them.
Below are some of the commonly requested types of animations. Please vote on which one(s) you want to focus on first, i.e. the most popular choice will be the focus of v1.15 and so on. 
As always, everyone is welcome to vote. To reward my patrons, their votes will weight more.

[Darkening Demise]

How are the new models coming along? That alone will be the best update adding quality to it. That to me feels like the one thing holding it back the most.

Always cool to see updates coming so frequently!

 

There's been some time since I played LifePlay, since I've been waiting for some more updates. I've been wondering, right now are there any "end" game stuff that really requires you to work to get them? I speak about stuff like buying a house, getting a job or perk which requires a very high skill investment, and things like that.

You can buy houses and cars. Cars can get very expensive: Lamborghini etc

You can also buy commercial properties to run business with

Oh and you can get a sugarbabe, but this has been in the game since v1.0.

Hey VinFamy,

 

I try to figure out the new update and how it changes the game. You wrote something about STD and prison and such and cheats to not be bothered with these...So I have a couple of questions about that...

 

1. Where can one disable or enable those?

2. How much are the odds on contracting an STD and is there way to figure whether you are sick or healthy. I know there's the doctor or the hospital where one can get a health check, but one can't specifically have a doctor look at an STD in specific like one can't have a doctor look for a pregnancy specifically. One would only have that health check which either tells you that you are pregnant/healthy/sick etc, right?

3. Is There a setting that shows or where one could toggle how many criminals run about the place or how many people contracting an STD are around the city so percentage wise?

4. What type of STD does one have to imagin....only the incurable ones or also something one later on in another update could eventually get a medication on?

 

Sorry for busting you with so many questions. Been looking at the FAQ but I found no hint about that stuff there.

 

Thank you very much in advance for taking a bit time to reply on these questions. ❤️
