Hey All,
This update brings the painter Tekem to Tal'Senet and the Aviator Jeivad to Medhen Island as mentioned in our dev blog here. This is mostly a stability/bugfix patch and the patch notes for this can be found below.

BUG FIXES
- Changed the load order so variables and NPCs around the world are loaded after a delay to fix issues some players were having with interactables & pickup weapons
- Fixed an issue with the incorrect body for Demi-Jackals in DSS
- Changed the morph label for the Equine ball morph
- Fixed an issue with the Carnal Instinct level not save/loading correctly
- Temporarily removed the ability to open/close the world map with M to prevent some soft-lock issues
- Fixed an issue where you could open the inventory/worldmap while in the camp screen, causing issues
- Fixed a texture issue on the cursed anubite in Heffer's reach
- Changed loot bags to only last 30 seconds
- Fixed other various issues with campfires
- Fixed an issue where pregnancy dialog & pregnancy events now happen AFTER climax is completed instead of interrupting the scene
- Added Samia Pre & Post sex dialog to flesh her out more as a Character and progression of her Pregnancy Fetish
- Fixed issues with some NPCs not loading their dialog properly due to an Identification bug
- General Performance Increases via changing load radius on some NPCs and crushing some unecessarily large textures
- Fixed issues with ambient player lines being played with the wrong label or no sound or the wrong line
- Added subobjectives to Masquerade to assist people in finding the Shaken Villager & Hakor
- Added Tekem, the painter to Tal'Senet
- Added Jeivad, the Aviator to Medhen Island (NOTE: Missing Player Voice Acting)
- Added player skin tints to the cock
- Fixed various swimming bugs
- Fixed an issue where "New Quest" icons will remain on the minimap after accepting the quest (Note: This will not change this being an issue on existing saves, sorry)
- Fixed bugs with incoming attack damage
- Fixed bugs with the player sometimes not loading nearby a campfire
- Fixed issues with player health not loading correctly after a save/load

Alright, maybe I missed the explanation in my playthrough but how do you gather essence?

The ship wreck maker means the stick in the middle of the beach a soon you grab that and equip it as weapon it schould move to next step

I had a similar Problem with the login Box beeing completely blank. Turned out that Kaspersky does not like how that works. It worked after disabling my Antivirus. Maybe that helps you as well.

I had COMPLETELY forgotten I'd down-tiered. But the issue isn't login, it's "I click on the box to input my email address and nothing happens". All the buttons are grayed out and I can't even click "continue" on a blank box. (re-upped btw). Found out I can type in my email, it just doesn't show it in the box, and once it's typed I can't click "continue".

The marker is on a stick that you need to interact with, there's a cutscene coming that'll make it clearer but for now just interact with the stick on the marker.
Carnal Instinct
Acolyte tier has never had game access and will be unable to download the UE5 build via the launcher. You either need to upgrade to Avatar, or contact us via DM for a refund if you have purchased the Acolyte tier in error.
Carnal Instinct
Please DM us if you need support resolving this issue. The build is extremely optimised for a UE5 title, so with a relatively modern PC you should get better performance than you describe.
Carnal Instinct
That's the game plot. It'll become clear over time.
Got game to load up and all. But first quest is broken nothing at the ship wreck marker... I am on marker no hints or clues to do anything. Went off exploring heard npc talking for help... But nothing? I looked around only saw an enemy... :| Trying another clean install of the game as a last attempt clearing it out of appdata again as well searching Regedit to see if it made any links or such then moving to attempt one last time :<

Still completely unable to interact with the launcher once I click "log in with patreon"

Alrighty this is one part a bugs report and other part suggestion. First with the bugs. I mentioned before that the "hide balls" toggle only works initially until getting into a DSS scene where they just... decide to stop hiding and be visible. When I went back to the cosmetic pillar to toggle them off again, they stayed invisible when I went into another DSS scene. Another bug I hit was with the questline Prodigal Son where at first the campsite didn't spawn at all so I reloaded a save. The camp showed up but I couldn't interact with it. So I had to skip around it straight to where I knew the boys were at and thankfully I was able to trigger things there to allow me to finish the quest. Last bug is that I "think" I came across Jeivad? I came across something at least which was just a random crocodilian model T-posing near the campsite for Prodigal Son. Textures were wonky on it and couldn't interact. Suggestion has to do with the "hide balls" toggle. I feel like that should be available in the inventory screen. Especially since we already have the "arousal" toggle available in there.

There's an NPC on the outskirts of the town on Medhen that you have to save and she'll lead you to the blacksmith.
go to the property settings of the game (click the gear symbol) and go to betas and click and it. it will show the UE5 beta and then prompt you to update
Gerardo 42
Does any one know where the blacksmith is ?

How can I access UE5 on Steam since its supposed to release there today?
has anyone found a fic for the missing sword -.- or am i gonna have to restart the whole thing haha
its still unplayable on my end and while it didnt take 15mins to load this time like it did past patch on an m.2 drive it still took along time to load changing the settings doesnt seem to help performance either still jitters around and you cant even see in front of you
In the Home From Home quest, if you find Damaris' sword before the quest is given, the quest does not update and cannot be completed
Jasmine
Yeah this is a big one for me, would be a lot easier too jump into this patch if the game didn't start lagging with max ultra settings by default
why do we start formless?
Red T. Basco
As always you are Awesome!
Bryan Thornburg
Did this fix the issue with each save taking progressively longer to save/load?
Michael Hunter
The game looks great. Still waiting on "game" setting(s) fixes such as settings having the ability to be saved and controller updates including axis inversion capability. Other than that I'm looking forward to get hooked on the new game engine and environment.
