The Library Story [v0.97.5.8] [Latissa & Xaljio]

— Now updated quests are moved to the beginning of the Quest log;

— Added the new quest category “maximum in the current version is achieved”, to make it easier to navigate in the Quest log;

— You can see the stages of completion of already completed quests;

— Added a ‘completion/maximum in the current version’ indicator for many quests from the previous versions (20+ quests) (should work with old saves as well);

— Added the “Back” button, leading to the root of the quests list from the log of a particular quest.

— The guards will calm down a bit with their night raids. The interval between roundups has been increased from 3-7 days to 7-10, the first roundup will occur two weeks after the start of the game, instead of three days, as before. Also, the maximum fine for resisting guards has been reduced from 300 coins to 200.

— Scylla no longer takes off her mask at inappropriate moments.

— Some (minor) episodes did not activate on the Lake.

— Betsy no longer gives silver plates in the middle of a conversation, only after receiving the task.

— Wrong layers order in the scene with Emma and Belle in the garden with the Tentacle Tree.

— Misprints, mistakes in texts and localization in English.

The next (content) version LS 0.97.5.6 is planned to be released in February 2023. Gaston’s return to the town is coming! ^__^ It will be quite soon, so stay in touch, guys.

Thanks a lot for your support! And we are back to work on the next content version.

Fixes:

– Bug KeyError: u’u0434u0435u0442u043au0430′ while talking to Betsy about how to make up with a girl. Corrected.

– Fixed a bug in the events with the stocks, Emma and Betsy, which led to the game looping.

– A number of small fixed (mostly related to ‘Emma in the stocks’ quest).

– Important! The bug related to f_music_place() and, accordingly, loading locations under certain conditions is fixed.

– Important! It was not the best decision to close access to the Hunters Guild at night :D. Now access to the telescope at night is open again. By the way, in the next version (LS 0.97.5) the Hunters Guild will be added as a separate location, hence, now this is a temporary solution. Patch LS 0.97.31

– The “Fear of the Charmed Ones” potion was not consumed while using in battle, and after the first use, the skill continued to be displayed in battles where the Beast’s helpers were already absent. Corrected.

New mechanics of punishing Gaston in the stocks on the Main Square, as well as a corresponding system of fines with control of payment and activation of new events.

The Hunters Guild and the Hunting Shop are now closed at night.

Now the evening sound theme of locations coincides with the night one.

Some graphical bugs of storylines in the reading room and with the Tentacle tree are fixed.

A number of various minor corrections and fixes.

New mechanics for night events. This mechanic will evolve in the future.

The system of passwords for patrons has been reworked (content opened with current passwords will not be closed after updating passwords for new versions).

New mechanic – sexual activity counter. So far, it applies only to Belle’s masturbation and sex with her. Affects some specific parameters. The mechanics will evolve.

Now if you “to leave a trail” in Belle’s bedroom at night, the window will not become inaccessible. On the contrary, it leads to a chain of new events.

The meeting with Lumiere is no longer tied to Emma’s storyline. It is activated one week after the start of the game (during a regular visit to the Laboratory).

Simple lockpicks can now be purchased from the Thief.

Sometimes the light from the basement of Belle’s house was displayed during the days when Maurice was not working there. Fixed.

Fixed a bug in overlaying layers for some backgrounds.

Added shading for dialogs and sprites for evening and night.

A number of improvements that should improve the performance of the game.

Now the wonderful silver tureen, if Gaston decided to keep it, should be displayed on the shelf.

Reworked the time skip menu.

Fixed a bug with escape from the location when the Beast caught Belle (the option for the first attempt to retreat was displayed all the time)

In some scenes, during pauses, clicking on the interface elements could break the script logic. Fixed.

Many fixes and improvements for events and mechanics from previous versions of the game.

The interface of buy/sell menu is improved: graphic buttons and a slider for quick setting the required amount of items are added.

Improved loading of locations (they load faster, in addition, the problem with loading different layers at different times is partially fixed, which allows the objects appear synchronously)

Fixed:

Bug: Couldn’t find file ‘img/chars/emma/new/stocks/EMM_displeased.png’

Bug when trying to enter the FAQ section in the start menu

Removed the ability to sell endlessly a silver arrow for 10 coins and redeem it back for 0.

Fixed crash with qt_095_belle_education and the issue with trophies from hunting when loading old saves.

contains tentacle quest + sidequest with thief. seperate from full game. will be combined with full game with part 2 in april

Now in ‘The Library Story’ we have the following situation: there are two parallel versions of the game. The first one – the continuation of 0.93b, with a number of changes in mechanics, but at the moment it’s almost unplayable because of a bunch of bugs, unfinished mechanics and not fully coordinated quests from the previous content. And the second – is current version 0.94, which we prepared separately to show you new content. In this version (0.94), we added a new full quest for $5+ patrons (be sure to follow the link, guys, it says how to activate this quest), and unlocked the previous $5+ quest for the rest patrons. Also in this version, the Gallery of original outfits has been updated and several new books have been added to the shelf of Gaston’s library (according to the wishes of some patrons).

As you remember, we took three additional days, hoping to finalize the interactive episode (for Gaston’s Training Quest) … But despite this extra time, we still couldn’t finish this storyline on time. Too many bugs and inconsistencies with Gaston’s Training quest as a whole :(. That’s why, this version turned out small (less than we planned) and with new content only for patrons. However, it’s supposed to work with old saves from 0.93b.

As we’ve already mentioned, after releasing of LS 0.94, we planned to concentrate all our energies on preparing of the big version LS 0.95. But considering that we have not released the promised educational interactive now, we’ll prepare the addition of version 0.94 by the end of January (in version 0.94b). This version will also work with old 0.93b saves, so you’ll be able easily try the new content. After that, we can start the preparation of version 0.95.

In this version you’ll see the continuation and the “real” ending of Gaston’s training quest, the big development of the Lake location (now Belle will regularly visit it and different things will happen there).”

==============================ENG:

Belle has difficulties with paying for books. The event is activated in the library. New opportunities open at 100, 200 corrupting, and after completing the quest for Bed Skills Level 2 and collecting of at least 3 arguments for persuading Belle. Arguments can be obtained by going through the following quests: tentacle tree, magic bra, activated exhibitionism (for patrons), masturbation Belle, storyline with Ariel. The final scenes of this quest is affected by the Bed Skills parameter (200-250 and more than 250).

Belle spends time on the lake. Wait for rumors about it a week from the beginning of the game. Be sure to activate patron’s password, because a significant part of the variants of events is tied to exhibitionism. Events are affected by corruption parameter (<200 and 200+). Some options are opened after activation of the previous ones. Be sure to wait for the second swim of naked Belle!

Ariel again waits for help. Just complete her initial quest (rumors about the mermaid appear after 15 days) and wait a week until she is ready to accept help.

1) the continuation of the story about Belle and tentacle tree (pay attention to the new location on the map – Belle’s Garden),

2) the sequel of Emma’s storyline,

3) the additional option of Betsy training,

4) dog training, alchemy mode and a number of improvements, corrections, and other like things.

In the quest “Bed skills 2” was added the possibility to sell magic textbook in a more obvious way.

Fixed:

An error in the event with tentacle-tree sprout

‘Exception: Sayer ‘LB_pff2_shame_sp’ is not defined’.

Not an obvious work of schedule meeting with Betsy

Belle did not increase her magic parameter

Time limit was increased to 100 days (of course for our best-in-the-world patrons there is available timeless game mode – use starting bonus for patrons, which opens after special patrons code)

– (Testing option) Added option of replacement textbox background for those players who had issues with display of backgrounds in the original game version (on some integrated videocards). See “textbox background” -.> “Graphics bug fix” in Preferences. This testing option had been added just for dialog textbox. If everything would work properly, we’ll implement this option with another interfaces.
