Hucow Simulator Demo 2 [VaM]
🕑 Added 2023-08-11 02:22:19 +0000 UTCThis version is outdated, see the updated version here!
[Housekeeping Preamble]
This last update really took a lot to crank out (see: using trig to calculate the current state of a projectile based on it's angle and velocity X seconds ago, to track the milk stream which has no collision), but now I can throw the Diffusion stuff I've been working on back into the mix, should see some updates on that front as well, soon
Minor update to the Hucow simulator, nothing crazy, but a few little tweaks that make the experience a little more entertaining. Still haven't implemented the Major Features that I think will really make it shine (Mood, branching dialogue, altering potions etc) but have to write the foundation for those features to shine
While I initially planned to restore the bottle/potion/item system in this version, I sidelined that to push out the backbone of a dialogue system first. I realized in testing that half the fun surrounding various concoctions is the commentary it prompts and consequences it entails
Note that the largest sizes attainable at this state are not the largest sizes I have planned, but I'm saving the 'End Game Content' for later, no point spoiling the fun by stumbling into the finale tier sizes this early
Please let me know via email or Discord if there's any bugs, or if you have any feedback or ideas!
---- V 0.2 (this version) ----
- Misc Bug Fixes, performance improvements, misc polish
- Milk can be collected in a bucket, stored in a container and sold once filled
- Showcase of basic dialogue system
- Colliders slightly improved at largest WG sizes
(Currently, the Feed, Work and Chat options are particularly barebones, just for the sake of demonstrating the functionality)
---- Features WIP ----
- Finish advanced lactation, milking, WG mechanics. Alternate methods of delivery/collection
- Settings menu (Force Symmetry, optional performance options, etc)
- Item store
- Items, food, drinks with various effects
- Item related 'minigames'
- Save, load feature (individual progress can be kept and transferred loaded between different versions as updates add features)
- Affect mechanic (current mood, relationship strength, etc)
- Advanced Dialogue, branching dialogue and alternate routes
- Relationship progression mechanic
- Misc scripted events
- Misc polish on menus, feature navigation
- Morph Optimization
- Option to load alternate/custom characters (without breaking things)
- Option to load and buy custom outfits
---- Known Bugs ----
Bug in code; the 'Too Expensive' price indicator won't always disappear when leaving the store
Dialogue doesn't save between game saves, and will repeat between sessions. This will be addressed when implementing a game state save/load feature
Saving/loading the scene outside of the Primary Menu may break something. The current scene is not yet optimized for being saved/loaded with VaM default scene save tool
Double-click any button at your own risk; nothing extra should happen, but it will probably break something
Some users, depending on your VaM build will receive a "Could not load json Custom/Atom/Person/Clothing Preset_BasicX.vap" error message, and the store/closet won't work properly. You can manually fix this by unzipping the .var file, dragging the contents of "bury.HuCow_Simulator_Demo.3.var\Custom\Atom\Person\Clothing\" into your own local "C:\...VaM\Custom\Atom\Person\Clothing\" folder. Similarly, you should probably do the same with the Hair, Skin and Morphs folders within Atom\Person, in case they misbehave as well

Thanks, after moving the files I'm not having any more errors. Also thank you for your timely responses. :)

Thanks for the feedback, I've done some testing and found there's different, distinct error messages for when the clothing item referenced isn't installed. This looks like some packaging issue, or a bug in unpackaging I've got to track down You should be able to manually fix this by unzipping the .var file, dragging the contents of "bury.HuCow_Simulator_Demo.3.var\Custom\Atom\Person\Clothing\" into your own local "C:\...VaM\Custom\Atom\Person\Clothing\" folder. Similarly, you should probably do the same with the Hair, Skin and Morphs folders within Atom\Person

When I try to load the store to get new clothes. I get and error code saying "Could not load json Custom/Atom/Person/Clothing Preset_Basic1_Home.vap" There is also at the same time saying "Could not load json Custom/Atom/Person/Clothing Preset_Basic1.vap" Plus the same message all the way to Basic5. There aren't any other error messages.
Spagetti Dog
Okay thank you I'll give that a shot.

if you ran into the issue the same session as updating the packages, they won't load properly unless you exit and reload the scene (despite being installed, they still need to load in properly, a step that only occurs on scene launch); if that isn't the issue, please go into a little more detail what's not working
Spagetti Dog
I have a similar Issue, there's no missing packages that can be found though.

This scene includes "a" custom bbw morph meant to used in conjunction with others to simulate stuffing, but this was also included in the last Hucow demo. Larger/diff shapes may be coming in next version, but for sure the Largest end game tier sizes are going to be a few releases down the line https://imgur.com/a/8YSGzOv is one WIP, blurred for suspense
Dude
When is your new BBW morph coming out?

Probably the third one knowing me lol, hopefully it's fixed with the update

Three reasons costumes wouldnt load: the presets aren't being loaded, the script isnt calling them, or the presets cant find the right clothes installed. First two cases " shouldn't " happen unless I missed a bug, third case is if you didnt Load Missing Packages step, and don't have the clothes installed

You are killing it with this update :D

I noticed a problem in the previous version where I couldn't change costumes and there was an error involving costumes and I'm not sure how to fix it
