#hotfix

Good morning (or good evening, depending on your part of the world!)

I decided to push out the latest prologue/chapter 1 updates today~

This isn't a chapter rewrite or anything - chapter 2 is still my main priority. But I wanted to share it anyways (and hope I don't break anything 😅)

Things that were added/adjusted:

A new application conflict style (deflect with humor)

Glasses!

Updated flavor text

Updated/revamped advantages 😈

A few new variables and logistical tweaks

If anything's looking off, please let me know~

Hey everyone! I’ve just updated the game files with a few quick fixes and tweaks based on your feedback:

Pronoun errors: Fixed a bunch of lingering pronoun issues (hopefully all of them! They are truly going to be the death of me, haha).

Auction package bug: Bidding on the NBA tickets should no longer leave the envelope at the end of Chapter 4 completely blank. You will now properly get your prize! 🏀📦

New outfit option: Added a little extra choice to select your outfit before heading to the premiere with Cross, so your MC doesn't have to default to a traditional outfit if you don't want to! 👗👔

I wanted to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who reached out to report these bugs, sent in suggestions, or left such lovely asks/comments! 😭💖

I’m slowly going through my inbox and answering your asks as fast as I can, but please know that I read every single one of them and they honestly make my day. Your support means the world to me!

First post of 2026, whoa!!!

Nothing major in this one, just a few bugs that were pointed out, particularly in regards to tracking MC's vengefulness against a certain knight in black and gold, as well as their very important (potential) duel against Sam in Chapter 2. If you were experiencing issues in regards to these, restart the game (sorry!) and they should be fixed.

As always; any other problems pop up, don't hesitate to reach me via DMs here--I prefer that to public bug posts as it's both a bit unflattering for me and fills up itch comments and this feed with big bug reports and screenshots.

This fix has no new content, so if you played through without issues there's no need to replay, but keep an eye out! No more nine month waits for 2026, rest assured 😄

Hiya and thanks for reporting! I'm glad you're enjoying the mod! I've fixed the issue with Sims resetting when pulling up artists with low skills and the ITUN error (just a simple mixup between a . and + can cancel out a whole interaction!) for grant applications. Both should be working now. Thanks also to @desiree-uk for also reporting the Research bug and testing the hotfix.
