HTH Dialog Developers Group

I thought maybe we could just change the color of the bed to RLD red/blue... Then we also need to fix the dialogue state problem i've been noticing. When the player clicks back from a scene, but then clicks on the sprite again, the game bypasses all dialogue and gives Welcome back state. Try with Vira's dialogue and decline.

I would suggest to start with dialog bug, because it's the easiest to fix. Actually, it's not a bug, it's a matter of dialog fine trimming.

When you open XML file (in simple text editor), you find these lines there (chat_vira.xml for example)

  <state statename="state13">
    <text>I mean  it. I think I’m beginning to like you.</text>
    <resp newstate="state14">I feel the same way.</resp>
    <resp newstate="bye_d">I’m not feeling it.</resp>
    <onleave newstate="default" />
  </state>
  <state statename="state14">
    <text>...some text..</text>
    <resp newstate="state19">...next...</resp>
    <onleave newstate="backhere" />
  </state>

Where onleave tag chooses the state to go when player clicks BACK button. Typically either default state for back to the dialog beginning or backhere or similar named state for final friendship status. However you can also either:
1. remove onleave tag line, then dialog will resume in exactly same state where left. But it would look weird for most states when player returns after (usually) longer time.
2. change the resume state in onleave tag to any existing state defined in that XML file that does not look weird when returned after some time.
3. create some return state for the middle case when character is already familiar with player but not advanced to friend status. Then link this state to onleave tags of appropriate dialog states. Of course we don't want to create special return state for each dialog point.

Regarding decline or leave choice, it's a similar case.
You can find these responses in XML file:

<resp newstate="bye_d">Thanks for the pointer, lady. I’m gonna leave, bye!</resp>
<resp newstate="bye_s">Bye, beauty.</resp>

where there are typically two bye states defined in XML file:

  <state statename="bye_d">
    <text>Goodbye outsider. Try not to get too distracted while you’re away!</text>
    <onleave newstate="default" />
  </state>
  <state statename="bye_s">
    <text>Goodbye. Try not to get too distracted while you’re away!</text>
    <onleave newstate="backhere" />
  </state>

In most dialog files the text is the same (simple Bye.) in both states. The difference is in onleave tags leading to different return states. So this turns into fine picking whether to use bye_d or bye_s in decline/leave response tag in particular dialog state.

So it's technically easy to fix, but it has to be done in each dialog XML file.

Thanks to a member on u18 chan, I now have access to the Official Offline build.

Implementations:

1: Jeanette's new Cowgirl scene.
I think that some time in the future, I could finish drawing the scene. I could also maybe add cum and speed to the lean back pose.

2: Jaymee's Cowgirl scene:
Her scene has been changed to Vaginal instead of Anal, and I think we could add it as another option in her menu.

3: The new Map:
The new map controls should definitely be added to our next release.

4: Marcus's scene:
I don't think it possible that we could do anything with that scene; at most we could make a loop and add it to the TV in the Tower...

5: Jasmine Cowgirl:
This newest version is broken, unlike the version found in his earlier builds and I suspect I may be able to repair this scene in the future.

6: Ava Doggystyle: As you mentioned earlier, the sound is crap, but it could still prove useful.

7: Rio: She has had sentences added to her dialogue that we could use.

8: The Hi-res Sun Temple Ruins Background

edit:
9: We can implement the modified Michelle foreplay scene

10: We can implement both of Rio's Oral scenes

That's it for now but I will find things to add in the future. Hope to hear from you soon
 

Maybe it would be better to just remove the damn thing lol. Any thoughts on GUI standardization?

I could try and do the drawing, but not for a while...

Just quick status update. I've done:
-Map shift on mouse high/low as in official build,
-Edit button,
-Charlotte sprite pregnancy mode (sex to increase prego phase), added her to Northern Falls hill where her sprite is not half submerged in pool so you can enjoy it and it's the only other location to match her only sex scene background.

BTW that minigame is garbage, I'm not spending time on that now.

Now I'm going to recreate music player from scratch, so you can define you play sets in XML file. And also to enable independent music volume control.

If you can rip her sprite segments from Unity and convert that to SWF for us, then I can do the rest.

Hey! Nice work
