v0.3.47 is now LIVE for AVATAR Tier+
🕑 Added 2022-07-17 01:12:45 +0000 UTC"At first I was not certain it was alive, after all how could anything emerge alive from such a place. The scar hung in the air, an open wound in the fabric of the world. This thing was like a splinter, ejected from that wound... from the body of the world itself.
When it rose my gaze was met, not by eye but by to smaller rips in that tapestry of experience which we call reality. Twisted beyond understanding, it was grotesquely tainted by some dark and unknowable power. Whatever foul energies had distorted its body must also have bestowed upon it the gift of incredible fortitude, as it took no fewer than five Magi to bind it, their task made easier with an enchantment they referred to as 'Heka'. The talents of these magicians are impressive to behold, though I learned it can decades or even centuries of study, along with plentiful natural ability, to learn even the most limited of the arcane arts.
That it took as many Magi, to contain this demonic creature, as the numerous hells of this place, was a twist of coincidence not lost on me."

Hi All,
What's this, another Avatar update mid-month? Goddess knows how we keep it up! We're working at pace on core mechanics, more on that in the development update below, but for now we're bringing some new cosmetics to the table.
Victorious in the poll for a new skin, we now have a Fennec Fox option for female Jackals. Male is in progress and coming soon. In the Pre-Alpha build this is limited to just a material change, altering the fur colour, however when we release Alpha later this year there will be the ability to sport a pair of huge Fennec ears and shrink the muzzle down to match. We considered putting it in sooner, however it's something that is far easier to implement in the overhauled way we've built parts of the game in Unreal Engine 5.
We've also added a new large member, the "Void Tainted Member" with three colour variants - Black, Blue, and Adaptive (matches player skin tone). They're from an as-yet unseen race that dwells with in the void and were made possible by the funding of a generous Demigod-Tier Patron. We don't ever out the Patrons who fund items, but you may recognise the design from our Discord server.

Development Update
Male/Male content had been a little left out recently, so we're in the process of animating M/M versions of other DSS scenes (as well as M/F and F/M where needed). Additionally we have an entirely new M/M scene which we aim to implement later this month, more on that in the Ascended update post.

The Unreal Engine 5 version of Carnal Instinct now features a much deeper approach to the RPG elements of the game. The code for this is almost complete, the artwork is not. We want to give some idea of the updated character screen, though of course please bear in mind that this is "programmer art" using stock visuals in place of our own UI (being designed at the moment). The layout will obviously change, as will what is displayed by default, but this should give some idea of direction. It's worth noting that some stats which we have working are still missing from this screen, such as virility and fertility, but fear not they will be present.

Something which is coming to the current version of Carnal Instinct is our huge new quest, Liquid Gold. Whilst we don't want to touch on the quest itself, as we abhor spoilers, we do want to mention an NPC who will show up as she's a first. Below is the in-development sculpt for the Female Centaur, an exotic NPC who will make her first appearance in August.

Finally we've spent a lot of time codifying lore. Whilst we had out main story and the key narrative of the world set out from the start, over time we adjusted and changed elements which allowed contradictions to creep in. Additionally there were some unintended consequences within our worldbuilding which we wanted to take the time to address. The result is thousands upon thousands of words, from the co-dependent Cult of the Jackal and Blades of Anubis which together form what you've come to know as The Anubites, to the mysterious Aethio whom spirit new-borns out of the cursed land. All of the current in-game content now has a deeper background on which to draw, something which will start to flow through in future quests. To also support this we've compiled the entire timeline of Sabu. We've written the highs of Sabu's history like The Arrival of the Night Sun, which saw Kethra herself arrive in the arid land, and The Year of the Sacred Star, when Anubis "birth" was a cause for great celebration and feasting. To it's darkest lows like The Night of Weeping Reeds, a grim and fateful turning point in the history of Sabu, and the bloody conquest of the desert lands known as The Taming of the Dunes.
There is still a substantial amount of lore writing left to do, taking out outline drafts and ensuring everything fits, but we're almost there. This means we can finally move forward with some of the bigger set piece events we've been looking to make, as we needed to be certain before we did so. We won't ever just post lore dumps, as we think it's much more interesting to discover them in-game, but when we post art for new factions we will give a taste of the lore surrounding them.
New cosmetics, new manhood options, new sex scenes, new Exotic races, actual RPG systems, lore in much greater depth and more interconnected than ever before... we're getting there. We're more confident than ever of hitting Alpha in 2022 and it's all thanks to you. Thank you so much for your support, it means everything to us that so many people love the project and want to help it become something really special. Onwards, to Alpha!

NVM i figured it out its not a bug, just something never dealt with a game where the inventory is set up where the each area has its own inventory.
Is it normal to lose equipment when you unequip them or not be able pick them up?

I hope at some point that Doby modification in any way of all the forms get saved individually, since the Ethnisity slide dose not match for me between human, dacolite and Feline, would be nice if they where saved individually, same goes for body type modifications.

The quest Tales of the void dosen't work for me, the NPC is here, but can't interact with him
If you look carefully around the temple, you'll see an opening above a statue of Anubis. I haven't tried climbing the statue, but you can climb to the crossmembers and walk/jump on that level until you get to the opening. That should be hint enough for now.

Got a problem with Milk & Honey I search all over the Ruined Tomb for the eye and i got within 13m and I do not see it I'm in a hallway can anyone give ma a hint were it is I ran in and out of the rooms and see don't see it
Any chance we will get the mateing unlocked soon?
LukkaDev
So on my way to get the spirit sand stuff, passed by the ruin you get Anubis' eye and started falling through the ground in a way that I thought you guys added quicksand but nope, just fell through the world itself lmao. Was able to climb my way back up through rock assets but yeah. EDIT: Adding on the fact that the Scribe during Blood Script, if you talk to her while not equipped you get the Carnal Instinct option, only for her to specify that you don't got what she wants, so then you put something on and... the Carnal Instinct option disappears entirely. That seems like a bug? OH and the male Draconoid's box on forms is completely white out.
Zavarof
