The expanded resolution and fullscreen options are in the game, but still a bit quirky. Sometimes images will shrink or expand from the borders, but never enough to compromise the scene. I think as a whole it makes the game better so we're going to run with it as is for now and try to fix the inconsistencies for chapter 5!

Okay I think I found a typo in the mechanical guide for v2c4m4. 4m4 Brothel scenes - Alena, Cecilia and Rhea just need to whore.

Don't you mean Angelica instead of Alena? As this is the only mention of Alena in the guide.

Finalized patch notes for Chapter 5 part 1
All content for the first part of chapter 5 is completed! It went about as I expected. We were able to finish Noemi in time, but Joan will have to wait for the second part of chapter 5. Two new non-canon bonus scenes, one commissioned by Cecilia again and the other the inverse of Alena's bonus scene last month. Patch notes are now final. Only big addition is Du's contributions. He's helping us go back through the earlier content and try to clean up some of the text. So far he's finished the first island and will be working on Eliba. Image count and text length finalized. Should be released by this weekend!

One thing I could use is a save to test the Sarah fix. If you ran into the issue where Sarah disappeared from the Castra after completing Vanessa's training please send it to [email protected]

Whoops, that was an oversight on the mechanical guide. Both routes have on exclusive slave. Rhea is light, Alena is dark. Mechanical guide will update for both of their capture sequences.

Thank you for the patience everyone, the first part of chapter 5 is ready for release for Patrons! I hope you all enjoy playing it as much as I did creating it.

I was simply amazed as I spent nearly an hour tonight just updating the Patreon section of the credits. Your support has simply been astounding and I want to take a moment to thank you all for letting me devote myself to creating Harem!

And once again, thank you! If you'd like to join the people already supporting the free development of this game, please check out my Patreon page!

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m4.4 released 9/23/16 (English, Free)

Screwed up and skipped some text by accident, now Im lost.

Doing the kathleen memory quest (which doesn't have any quest-log hints) Got to the westlands bit, found the ruins, found the cave, went to Shenetore and spoke to the elders (who had a cutscene in the elder's house, even though they don't live there anymore)

Now Kathleen (back at base) still says i need to search the westlands, but I can't find where to go.

From what I saw before skipping the dialogue, we solved the mystery, all the people we were looking for got killed here in shenetore.

What now?

From the mechanical guide in /walkthroughs

Quest 2 - Travel to Westlands, explore the fort north of the forest (NOT NORTH FOREST DUNGEON). Interact with the 3 objects of interest. Travel
toward Shenetore. There will be a cave at the start of the mountains, enter and interact with the object of interest. Travel to Shenetore,
talk to the elders. If Kathleen hasn't been possessed during combat, fight enemies with her until she has. Interact with her at base 2x
Quest 3 - Travel through the pass between Eliba and Mountain Glory, entering sub-map. Interact with monument on north plateau. Die. Interact with
Kathleen x2 in the Castra.
Quest 4 - Travel back to the dig-site and enter tomb. Sequence complete.

If that doesn't help, shoot me the save at [email protected] and I'll take a look.

Re: Harem, RPG game. v2c4m4.4 released 9/23/16 (English, Free)

So looks like chapter 5 part 1 is stable, letting me focus on the next section of content. The second part of chapter 5 will be covering the next 3 days in Corsix.

The nightly events will have the player move into a more comfortable abode and have a series of visitors. First night is still up in the air for who that is, there's currently a Patreon poll going on to determine who gets to be your 'conjugal visitor'. Then the Namuhists will make an appearance followed by an old friend.

The day quests will most likely be Angelica, Naitay, Rhea/Alena, Joan and probably 1-2 more yet to be determined. As usual there will be a non-sexual route for all of your slaves to get your votes. A few teasers in the usual places (Patreon, Blog and Forums).

I'm also considering changing the release schedule. Currently it's split. Patrons get the new content when it's ready and then the public gets it near the end of the month. Which is kind of a pain to maintain from my end and gives me a week or two where there's minimal incentive to to sign up and support development. I might just do both the rolls on the same day. Patrons get the newest content and at the same time the public gets the previous month Patreon release. It will add a week or so for the next public release but then you'll be getting new content every month, same as the current schedule. Let me know what you think!

And of course, teasers!

Nah, I found it. Needed to kill stuff while she was in my party, I just mashed a little too hard and went past the message where it told me that. It wasn't mentioned in the version of the walkthrough I had, so I just reloaded an old save and did that part again, paying attention to the text this time.

Cool. I'm also tweaking her possession code in the second part of chapter 5, making her get closer to possession with every battle and every turn, rather than just every turn. Won't have any immediate impact on the Corsix content, but if you're still working through the chapter 4 events she'll trigger more reliably.

Yeah, I struggled a little against the undead when I needed to get her possessed, to escape the cave, since I was wiping out each group in two turns. Eventually she got possessed though, and I got a bunch of xp in the meantime.

Afterwards I had a little problem where using the auto-battle feature would have her spam her possession-inducing move in every fight, which was a problem.

Ralph being able to calm her negates that somewhat, but before I learned that move it was a real problem.

Auto-battle is a pain. I love the feature but it was removed from VX solely because they couldn't be assed to make a decent AI for it. Nor does anyone on the team have the skills necesaary to make it solid.

But I'm going to try to adjust Frozen Fury again. It's set up as a dual skill. The first just does 1 damage for a lot of mana. I was hoping the AI wouldn't cast it. That skill triggers another skill which is the massive whomp of the skill. I'm going to try to change the first part to a 1 pt heal just so the auto-battle might stop using it.

I'm not sure how the AI works, I assumed it was constantly picking it because it's her highest damaging skill. If it only does one damage, then I dunno. I was hoping there was just an option to make it ineligeble for auto-battle use.

I do know that Donna tends to spam her group-heal ability when there's even slight damage on more than one person.
Keeping everyone topped off isn't really a problem though, it feels more like a character-trait.

No, unfortunately there isn't. That'd be the best solution as there's a few skills that the AI uses horribly.

But onto updates!
Making good progress on the second part of chapter 5!

Nightly events - Writing and Images 100% Code 75%
Rhea - Writing and Images 100%
Joan - Writing and Images 100% Code 75%
Naitay - Writing 75%
Angelica - Writing 50% Code 50%
Alena - Writing 33%

Not bad since we've only been in the creation cycle for about 10 days as part 1 was a bit later than usual. Donna's still on the bubble. Her quest and scene is all plotted out, just a question if there's time to do it.

There will also be one retcon from part 1 of chapter 5 (Patron only atm). Fiona didn't split off at the start of chapter 5, she stayed with the rest of the harem.

And of course teasers!

We're in the final testing phase. Hopefully I'll be able to release on the 5th, at which time the public version will get updated to 5m0!

And of course a teaser. Last month I ran a Patron-only poll to decide which slave got to give you a conjugal visit. Noemi barely edged out Sarah in the voting so she got the honor! I'm running a similar poll this month as the events in Corsix are extended enough to allow for it. And you might have more than one willing woman for company this time around! It does require a $2+ pledge to support the development of Harem.

Re: Harem, RPG game. c5m0.2 released 11/5/16 (English, Free)

There was a bug in 0.2 that left Terra's unique unavailable. It had been fixed in the c5m1 for Patrons, but this is a fix that I want to migrate into the public version as well. m0.3 fixes that bug retroactively. Just download the updated version and use any save to access Terra's unique quest.

This fix had already been done in the c5m1 that I sent out to Patrons today.
