[RPG Maker VX Ace] A Zombie's Life

[musical74]

I ASSUME the saves are OK from one version to the next, but will we have to start from scratch on version 7? Occasionally you have to start anew because some major thing has been changed.

Something with Perez's progress is blocked. I'm following the guide.

* Talk to her at the top floor of school on the right (+1 affection - 1 affection total)
* Give her 5 food and / or water (+1 affection - 2 affection total)
* She will tell you she doesn't have anything left to trade, give her a food or water (+1 affection - 3 affection total)
* Talk to her again and tell her she can't have items for free anymore. (Footjob scene, +1 affection - 4 affection total)

I gave her the 5 food, and then one more after revealing she had nothing to trade. But now whenever I refuse trade, she just refuses an offer to return home and says goodbye.

If my memory serves m right you have to be compassionate to her situation once after she reveals her inability to pay.
Meaning give her something for free than charge her again...

this game has some replay value, for instance getting your aunt before the lights go out makes the relationship with her improve many times faster than after the blackout

If she doesn't offer you the Footjob when you refuse to give her food for free then you're either playing an older version of the game or there's something wrong with your save file. Are you using an older one? And is her Affection level 3? Also, have you tried leaving and coming back the following day to talk to her again?

[theredfear]

I don't know how to check her affection, but it should be. I did the previous steps exactly as presented in the guide, and am on 0.7

[Sun Quan]

Ah, shoot, I forgot Perez doesn't show up in available characters until later. You're able to check the women's affection by looking at them under Status. What about the other bits? Are you using a save from a previous version and did you go home then visit her the following day?

[theredfear]

Yes I am using an existing save. I reaaaaaaally hope I don't have to start from scratch

I don't find the exploration portions of the game very fun.

[dsmoke]

Soo, think I've got a bit of a bug here. I had Perez at the safehouse and accidentally selected the option to have her scavenge, quickly I hit the back/menu (x) button after which she disappeared and has not returned after several days. Possible I'm missing something but it definitely doesn't seem intended.

[archer_gilgamesh]

I think I have a bug for you. After you receive news that the water and power in the town has gone out, you would need to install a solar panel in order to access the "watch porn with aunt scene" but I was able to view it just fine without having to install the solar panel. I know for certain the power is out because the street lamps no longer come on when it's night out. I am operating off of the 0.7 version.

[Zaiaku666]

Might be less of a bug, and more of an oversight. Nergal must've just assumed that by that point you would have the solar panels installed.

[archer_gilgamesh]

But you can get the aunt incredibly early and the exact opposite can be said of the solar panel. The only way I was able to get an improved workbench and then on top of that install a solar panel, it took an insane amount of luck and scrap metal.

On a different note, this is probably something I should post on his patreon about, but does anyone else think it would be neat if the MC aged a bit throughout the game, like in the next part he gets the body of a 16 or 17 year old? I understand that's asking alot which is why I'm just stating I think it would be neat, not that I expect it to happen.

[Evangelion-01]

Considering that Nergal himself is very displeased with the Character/Game I don't think that will happen.
Nergal mentioned he has an incredible hardtime writing the MCs scene, since he is so pure and innocent regardeing any H-Stuff.
An Update/Change like that might help him to change the MCs innocence...but I don't think he'll put that much work into it in order to rewrite the story
To begin with the entire story makes a long time survival in that town impossible, which makes a timeleap by 5-6 years very unlikely, not to mention that the MC wouldn't be the only one ageing

[archer_gilgamesh]

I can certainly understand his frustration regarding the age of the character, but I wasn't trying to imply that there be a 6-7 year timeskip. I was trying to say that maybe it could be written in that after a certain event, the virus ages him to an optimal "reproduction" age. I'm not saying pregnancy become a thing in the game, just that maybe the virus speeds up the host's, in this scenario the kid, age and then drastically slows aging once the host reaches an appropriate "reproduction" age. Nergal wouldn't have to rewrite the game, and it would be an acceptable way, storywise, to quit having to write for a kid MC.

[Evangelion-01]

I can see the appeal to that, but what Event could happen in order to change to Player in that capacity...
In my current Game I am around 40 days after the infection...a delayed "mutation" like that seem rather unlikely...
also since the H-scenes are animated Nergal would hae to redraw all the scenes with a more mature character and since only the body ages in your proposal the MC would still be naive in mind

[archer_gilgamesh]

Well, there could be an event with Isabelle where she tries to test a vaccine on the MC and it only accelerates the virus's power. As for the immature brain problem, the vaccine mixed with the virus could also mature his mind to that of a 17 year old as a way to increase his sex drive. I know when I was 17 that's about the only thing that was on my mind. I know it's kind of a stretch but it could work since the virus was originally designed to cure Alzheimer's. As for when it could happen in the story, it just be a mandatory part of the game to contact Isabelle by a certain day to begin the process. As for the art, I have no answer to that one, as redrawing even some of the scenes would be quite the daunting task.

It's a fun game, it just feels weird to be both a little kid and having sex with your own relatives.

[Evangelion-01]

considering the shotacon and incest theme...I am pretty much sure thats exactly what he wanted
He took over Urban Demons which has the same "setting"; since there the shotacon is a mischievious and perverted boy. Exactly what he was searching for AZL

[Zaiaku666]

Just so nobody who is on Nergal's patreon gets their dander up, the patreon-only release has been delayed until the 28th as mentioned in this patreon post.

Hey guys,
So I've got some bad news about a decision I've made that I know will potentially be a unpopular one. And it concerns the AZL 0.8 build.

I've had a few delays on my own work, that would have set this build back by a day or so (making up for the weekend I lost last weekend due to personal reasons.) I know normally that wouldn't be a problem, however the main issue comes in the form of animations.

So far I have no new animations for the new build intended for today (but still a fair few scenes to add in.) But hopefully they will be arriving soon. To give plenty of time for the animations to hopefully catch up I've decided to delay the 0.8 build by just under 2 weeks.

I know that's not the news people want to hear, but I feel like it will deliver a better 0.8 build over all (allows for me to polish off some new features, such as the melee mechanics, and allow for osme thorough testing.) It will also give me the ability to fast track some extra animations that I didn't think would make the cut (possibly - will have to see how that goes.)

It means those who have pledged for AZL will still get a build this month, which I'm able to do because of taking next month off (OBLIGATORY REMINDER: I'm taking next month off, so don't expect any patreon builds.)

I've also decided to bring the Urban Demons build forward a couple days than intended, so people can access any bug fix builds to these new builds in the current patreon cycle.

Please check the bottom of this post for the revised released dates.

Again I apologise for this delay, but I will ensure that everyone that has pledged this month will get the builds they have pledged for.

Is there a way to replay Perez' earlier scenes after you get her back to your house?

[Zaiaku666]

Other than the cheat room, nope.

[Yamemai]

Something with Perez's progress is blocked. I'm following the guide.

I gave her the 5 food, and then one more after revealing she had nothing to trade. But now whenever I refuse trade, she just refuses an offer to return home and says goodbye.

Late to the party, but I had experienced this before, and from what I found out, you needa make sure Mrs. Prez doesn't have any resources out than food and water. -- The scene even implied it, that she doesn't have anything else to exchange with.

Yes I am using an existing save. I reaaaaaaally hope I don't have to start from scratch

I don't find the exploration portions of the game very fun.

There's a cheat room so you don't have to look for items anymore.
