discussion Abandoned VN Ren'Py DAZ Father, Teacher, Villain [v0.2.0] [Abacus Games]

[sarutah]

I didn't even have the option to change the age, after that it may be necessary to change the names to change the age.

 

[Sennistrasz]

Is there a fix for name changes showing up correctly?

I didn't even have the option to change the age, after that it may be necessary to change the names to change the age.

It's on the character screen, where text is gold instead of white. Click on the age and then the number turns white. Then you can adjust it, at least as of v0.1.3.

Is there a fix for name changes showing up correctly?

Workarounds that have been posted in the thread, but no official fix that I know of.

Just finished Father, Teacher, Villian 0.1.3. I must say I'm liking it VERY much so far! Plus, everything seems to be well done as far as the writing and characters go. One thing I did notice (and it's not a big thing AT ALL) is the UI could use some cosmetic upgrades. To be honest, so far that is the ONLY thing I seem to have an issue with. Great job Abacus Games! I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next!

This is what I get.
I named MC Custom1 Custom2, wife CustomWife, and the daus CustomOldest, CustomMiddle, and CustomYoungest, and I get stuff like THIS - notice in her profile she is CustomWife, last name is still Doe but that's a minor fix.... but the heading on her dialog is still Sophia:

Must be a glitch I just tested again and named the MC and then just hit enter for each family member so that they used the default name and everything worked fine. Maybe restart and try again might of been a glitch or something.

Help anyone can tell how to change age of characters???

Under character profiles.
Added a spoiler in the OP showing how to change character's ages as well as how to change their first name as well.

Well, the direction of the game is very interesting. But so far there is nothing of content other than the very first scene, and this is too little, although the variability of choice in these scenes pleased me.
Teens with huge tits in the shower horrified me, it looked really disgusting. Why make it so huge? At a minimum, they need to be halved so that they at least look normal. Reducing boobs is not some kind of crime, if anything...
Well, the female characters themselves... they seem to be pretty, but they don’t have any special attractive features, and what can I say, they really lack that same cuteness. The protagonist’s three daughters are completely clones with slightly different hairstyles and heights; who would be interested in three identical characters? Not a single truly beautiful female character that could keep us in the game for a long time. This means that no one will remember it, which I think the developer won’t really like, but that’s his decision.

Um, twins and triplets is actually a thing. (That doesn't apply here ofc, but it goes to your general point.) In fact, the Dahm Triplets were a huge deal in Playboy back in the day (around 2000-ish). A gum brand struck it big with their series of commercials featuring what eventually were known as "the Doublemint twins". There are a lot of people, actually, who find that type of thing great, provided the siblings are attractive in the first place. I'm not saying you have to agree with that view, but just FYI there are far more people interested in two or three characters with identical appearance than you seem to think.

However, FTR I disagree that they look exactly the same. They have decently similar appearances, but they do not look exactly like each other. And, FYI, that's because they're siblings. Very often siblings look extremely similar even without being actually born at the same time. Hell, I knew a family growing up where one brother was 2½ years older than his younger brother, and yet there were still some folks who thought they were twins. Similar appearance among siblings shouldn't be that shocking.

I've always wondered why people use words like "we" or "us" when talking about something they don't care for as if they are speaking for the majority of the people that play these AVNs. I assure you they do not! One should speak only for themselves and not act as though they are the spokes person for the rest of the community.

I missed something. I don't remember writing that myself nor reading it from another poster in this thread. Curious what prompted you to have that thought.

Well, if you draw conclusions then based on the entire comment and not just one part of it, cutting that one out of context.
Taking into account the focus of the game and similar games and the many 3D models created, many of which are copies of each other or even the same model without any changes. Not to mention the possibility of creating models of very different appearances, and banal copying them with minor changes is clearly not in favor of the creator. This is also worth taking into account. As well as the fact that, as you yourself said, they are not twins, but simply characters of the same type with nondescript appearance. And you also shouldn’t compare real images and computer graphics; there is a big difference between them both in technical terms and in the moral perception of it.
Not to mention the fact that the developers of such games have long stopped using the concept of relatives being similar to each other and create in their games sisters (for example) and other relatives as diverse as possible, even down to the difference in hair color (black, red, blond) and skin color (tan). And this approach justifies itself. And I repeat once again They are not Twins! And lovers of twins will not be interested in them either.
These are different situations, and past experience does not apply to them.
Just answer for yourself whether you like them as they are now or whether it would be more pleasant if they had a different appearance.

I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, Cookie. My commit was not directed at you. As a matter of fact, I've always liked your commits.

Made my own School Girl. She's Latina. Her name is Maya She's 15 18yrs old. She's a bit of a brat.

( I wanted to have her wearing the Red backpack, but I couldn't find it; nor the school's foyer.)

I like them as they are now; I don't believe it would necessarily be more pleasant if they had a different appearance. Possibly, but that could also make them less appealing to me.

Also, I find it ironic that you complain about my quoting only part of your previous post (which was done because I was addressing only that particular point, BTW) while failing to grasp this important statement I specifically made in my post:

(That doesn't apply here ofc, but it goes to your general point.)

My statement is saying that being actual identical siblings does not apply; they obviously aren't actual twins / triplets. But similarity — and even being identical — in appearance was the point of your statement, which I was demonstrating through the most extreme example: identical siblings. I don't know why you're going on about "real images" vs. "computer graphics" when that wasn't my point at all. You specifically said, "The protagonist’s three daughters are completely clones with slightly different hairstyles and heights" — this doesn't automatically refer to computer graphics, if that's what you were intending. I never took anything out of context; at worst, I misunderstood your context. Nevertheless, what appear to be identical or near identical people (to the average person) can, in fact, be seen as desirable. It depends entirely on the viewer. You may not feel the same way, but there are people who do like that type of thing.

Must be a glitch I just tested again and named the MC and then just hit enter for each family member so that they used the default name and everything worked fine. Maybe restart and try again might of been a glitch or something.

Nope. I've restarted like 4-5 times, and it does it every time.

 

[Myuhinny]

I have no clue then as I downloaded it from the OP and it worked fine for me. Maybe you need to wipe the game folder inclusding the save folders from both the game folder and the save folder found in the appdata folder. But have you tried changing the characters names from their profile pages. Click a profile image then click the first name of each person and the name should change from orange to white which means you can now change it to whatever you want. You can also change ages as well.

The storyline has me hooked! It's both beautifully told and incredibly engaging. The potential for future content has me on the edge of my seat. The anticipation for what’s coming next is killing me – in the best way possible!

 

[Pepus]

Great game whose beginning is really interesting!
