hey i am getting some crashes where it says "Fatal Error!" upon taking a picture. it seems to be random. also, if i'm in the camera and get caught in a plant or predator encounter, when the encounter is finished, i will be stuck in the camera still, but unable to look around. just fyi.
Hello for the fatal error message can you give me more details about the hardware you're using to play the game? For the other bug we are aware of it, thanks for reporting it!
sure, i have a 5800x3d and a 6950xt. also, i cant find the last tablet, (got the one near camp, the one by the strange stone, the one on the mountain down south, and the one in the swamp) do you have any hints for me?
This is exactly what I was experiencing, check if you've got overclocking of any sort enabled for your GPU, especially the VRAM and disable it. For me this fixed the issue with this game and actually a few others like RDR2.
Hello, do you plan to add Russian localization of the game? I would like to, thanks in advance. When is the game planned to be released on Steam, can you tell me?
Correct. It is one camp per biome. And we are focusing on one biome at a time. After the plains are done we will do the forest, etc. Consult the roadmap for more details.
i want to point this out in case is a bug or my pc rubber band me but i was leven the water to go back to camp wile i was in the tent at the locker i got tp to a plant like it grab me and it did is thing
i feel like i dont get this game too much i dont get very good ratings on my photo and i have no idea how to get their ranks from fearful to something else (i have read a bit the tutorial but im still a bit confused).
Familiarity is coming in the next main patch so it is not functioning right now. Following the launch on steam we will have story mode unlocked which will have narrative elements as well.
Running on linux, i get the initial settings asking about screen settings, after that screen goes black and there is sound. Im running on the Itch.io app and i am using linux mint.
Exact same problem here, was using the recommended amdgpu driver, all up to date. For now, using the Windows version with Wine through Bottles (only minor bugs).
maybe the author might consider adding animal reproductive organs for the furry characters? I'd like a the male and futa characters to have correct dongs for their species.
Nothing has changed with that particular process. Can you give me more details on the exact time the crash happens? The more specific you are the better it is to find the issue.
When the game crashes, it's always the immediate moment I click to take a photograph.
I guess I should have clarified that the game doesn't immediately crash to desktop, the screen freezes, and I get a popup just saying "Fatal error" and that the game has crashed and will now exit. Once I acknowledge the popup, then the game exits to the desktop.
Could you run task manager while the game runs? I want to know how the processes are being handled in your PC. It's likely you're running out of ram or something during the game as it needs to create a jpg file in your PC after you take it. So if you don't have the hardware needed or if there is hardware errors it might give you some issues.
I ran task manager, and that showed a massive spike in the "3D", "Copy 1", and "Compute 0" graphs at the moment the game crashed after taking a photo. The memory usage graphs looked normal though (I got 32GB of RAM, and 16GB VRAM).
I also ran Resource Monitor and that showed "5 Hard Faults/sec" for this game at the moment of the crash, there's also a spike that goes off the charts on the hard faults graph.
I genuinely hope this isn't bad hardware, this PC is not that old lol.
It might be fam. We will be changing how the saves work soon so it might solve the issue. Not sure. To me it reads like it is having issues creating new files.
We are aware of the menu issue. We will get it fixed asap.
Prey and predators will have a new advancement track added called familiarity which is how the photographer becomes more friendly with any species they catalogue. The higher familiarity the better interaction options you'll have. Familiarity mechanics is the next patches focus.
Bought the game after this new update and loved it so much that I decided to put in the time to unlock the Malous but I was disappointed by how the Malous still stays cloaked after it's pounced on you, making it hard to really enjoy the scene that follows.
Could you please make it that the Malous comes out of it's cloak when it's successfully hunted you? makes no sense for it to continue camoflauging when it's already caught it's prey.
But if that's supposed to be intended according to the lore, atleast add an option in the gameplay section for it because otherwise it makes unlocking the Malous pretty disappointing since it stays cloaked during its scenes with you.
She won't be cloaked during the scenes from familiarity. I can see the benefits of your suggestion though. Perhaps there can be a toggle or something as others like being able to see through her.
Replying to an old post. Sorry, but my question is relevant to this. Has Malous decloaking during familiarity acts implemented yet? she still appears invisble to me during acts even at max friendlyness.
Silly question. Are your gpu drivers up to date? If not please update them. Sapphire is using the latest version of unreals newest engine so it does require you update your software drivers.
Changed a key binding (C to crouch) mid game and it caused all the other buttons to not work. The mouse could still look around but literally nothing else worked. Had to Alt F4. Also every time I start up the game it asks me to reinstall C++
So, I'm having an odd issue after taking several photos, eventually snapping one will cause the world to well...vanish, leaving only the sky. This issue persists even when backing out to the main menu, and only goes away upon restarting the game.
hiya. hecking love the game so far and i couldnt help but notice with the new version but..... is MALO gonna be a character to find in game? noticed i had a missing creature in my pedia but i went looking and couldnt find anything.... would be super cool if MALO kinda starts showing up in the background of pictures you take. like you take a pic of a creature and when you check the image later MALO is just. in the background. then randomly getting closer till it shows up physically in game. could become a predator for a while and after a set amount of predator hunting sex encounters it could become more of a passive character hanging out at camp and you can have sex with it in any position you learn from other creatures. or a summon to fuck whatever creature youd like MALO to fuck. my ten cents. do with them as you will. i have no knowledge of coding or game making and i imagine this would be stupidly hard to do..
i figured it out. its a really good malo model and its super creepy and fun how she turns up in the world. very good work. well worth the effort to puzzle her in :)
In patch 0.23, they plan to add predator AI for all monster girls/boys.
Finally, after all this time, there will be an opportunity to be caught and raped (mostly I will play for the guy). I hope the monster girls will catch me (won't they do it?) Finally, the most anticipated patch for me (and not only me).
Otherwise, boring running around and photos are already boring, content should have appeared where the player is caught and done with him beyond his means. No offense to the author (well, seriously bored to take pictures).
Not sure why you thought a open world photography game wouldn't focus on taking photos. It's okay if the game isn't for your tastes but you gotta recognize the weirdness of your complaint.
So there is a bug. When you put the camera resolution on 4k, save and close the settings, you wont be able to move or click to open anything. You need to literally alt f4 the game.
There is a menu bug that happens sometimes if things move too quick. We will be looking for a fix. However your setting should save and be fine for the next load.
You can get the game on GOG, or you will need to wait for Steam release as we cannot connect Paypal here due to them banning our accounts for making pornography.
Ahhh I dunno how that's possible. The only thing I can think of is if your hardware might be faulty as the game uses vram to hold temp photos and such.
Not sure why it does that but my anti-virus pops up on the game. I've ran past updates with not much problem for about a year now. the most i'd get is my anti-virus pops up on most updates on launch of exe. But i can clear it then the game runs fine.
most games from itch get false flagged its nothing big. Just never got the blue frown screen before. but i do remember the launcher exe not having the .exe at the end of it. The games past updates sometimes had errors on launch of the app most of the time its nothing. also when i download the windows file instead of the installer chrome flag the download.

There is one close to the volcano up high in the tall grass section.
Thanks for the hardware. Can you confirm you have all the drivers up to date? And can you try running the dx11.bat file in the main directory.
This is exactly what I was experiencing, check if you've got overclocking of any sort enabled for your GPU, especially the VRAM and disable it. For me this fixed the issue with this game and actually a few others like RDR2.
those aren't monstergirls though.
that's just plain outright furries.
Sure.
They're girl monsters, I don't see the problem. :P
Hello, do you plan to add Russian localization of the game? I would like to, thanks in advance. When is the game planned to be released on Steam, can you tell me?
I actually am not able to answer either question. We want to release on steam this year but we can never be sure. For Russian I am not sure either.
It's a pity, I would like to(
How much will this game costs in steam?
The same it does here.
Oh thanks I thought this was a early access price
It is the EA price. We will be increasing the cost as more content, regions, and monsters are added to the game.
Thanks
can I not buy this game with PayPal?
No. We are banned on paypal for making porn. You will need to purchase on gog or wait for steam if you want to use PayPal.
Thanks
where can i find this animal?
Do the mysterious tablet puzzle to summon her.
will this game will have any type of vore?
just asking
Some mouth play and focus on teeth, but nothing like eating.
ok
i am excited for the familiarity system. i cant wait to see what happens c:
It's being worked on right now. Should be a great feature!
i see there is other camps but no way to them only can use the 1 are the others not part of the game yet ?
Correct. It is one camp per biome. And we are focusing on one biome at a time. After the plains are done we will do the forest, etc. Consult the roadmap for more details.
i want to point this out in case is a bug or my pc rubber band me but i was leven the water to go back to camp wile i was in the tent at the locker i got tp to a plant like it grab me and it did is thing

ok cool looking forward to it
Running on linux, i get the initial settings asking about screen settings, after that screen goes black and there is sound. Im running on the Itch.io app and i am using linux mint.
Please make sure all video drivers like vulkan and such are up to date.
Exact same problem here, was using the recommended amdgpu driver, all up to date. For now, using the Windows version with Wine through Bottles (only minor bugs).
maybe the author might consider adding animal reproductive organs for the furry characters? I'd like a the male and futa characters to have correct dongs for their species.
Probably not. We will have some variety to them but we won't be going into feral territory too much.
dont have a demo?
It's in the roadmap, give er' a read.
if the game is bought over itch.io will we get the updates here aswell? or do we need to pay again?
same question
same answer
ty
Not quite sure a follow but if you're asking if the itch version will continue to be updated after the steam launch the answer is obviously yes.
If you're asking if you get a steam key after purchasing here the answer is obviously no.
Sorry for the bad formulation.
my question was if the need to pay for every Single Update this game gets?
Or if it is a 1 time pay - get every Update
I hate that this is even a thing tbh. You pay you own the full game. You won't need to repurchase it.
I searched around for a bit and didn't find this question.
Is a futa protag available or planned?
Jamie is female in narrative but we plan to allow her access to a penis and penis alternative so she can access male sex animations.
She won't be a futa though.
If it's a fully functional penis like the male protag, i'm perfectly fine with it.
Good luck with the game!
One last question, got to the last symbol but it refuses to light up like the others.
That means you have submitted it already.
That what I thought at first but only 4/5 symbols are lit up on tablet.
Then you need to find the last symbol. There are 4 around the map and one near the tablet site.
Hello,
For some reason, it's now a gamble whether or not the game crashes upon taking a photograph. Prior to this update I didn't have this issue.
Nothing has changed with that particular process. Can you give me more details on the exact time the crash happens? The more specific you are the better it is to find the issue.
Sure thing,
When the game crashes, it's always the immediate moment I click to take a photograph.
I guess I should have clarified that the game doesn't immediately crash to desktop, the screen freezes, and I get a popup just saying "Fatal error" and that the game has crashed and will now exit. Once I acknowledge the popup, then the game exits to the desktop.

does this game have any plans for release to steam
Please read the roadmap for more details.
now i see the steam ea release but is that like a full release of the game or is it a demo
It's early access. The literal line before it says demo, so there will be one just before launching on steam.
Hey Kinky, how do I actually "interact" with the girls. I've heard of pheromone bombs but I don't have them and I've already tried taking pics.
It's tied to familiarity which is a feature coming next patch.
2 things, changing settings locks me in place and only mouse works, second, is there currently prey interactions, if not when are they getting added
We are aware of the menu issue. We will get it fixed asap.
Prey and predators will have a new advancement track added called familiarity which is how the photographer becomes more friendly with any species they catalogue. The higher familiarity the better interaction options you'll have. Familiarity mechanics is the next patches focus.
so if I take enough photos I can interact with the wild prey?
Currently speaking.
No it's coming next patch.
Bought the game after this new update and loved it so much that I decided to put in the time to unlock the Malous but I was disappointed by how the Malous still stays cloaked after it's pounced on you, making it hard to really enjoy the scene that follows.

Replying to an old post. Sorry, but my question is relevant to this.
Has Malous decloaking during familiarity acts implemented yet? she still appears invisble to me during acts even at max friendlyness.
Not yet. We will likely add it as a sex option when we add that menu into the game.
Likely you don't have dx12 compatible hardware. Inside the install directory is a file called dx11.bat just run that and it should work.
Thanks
oops wtf i ended up on a porn game messing around with numbers 😬
Eh?
https://itch.io/post/11020678
changing the number at the end brings you to different posts and replies made throughout the entirety of itch.io
I'm bored right now
Silly question. Are your gpu drivers up to date? If not please update them. Sapphire is using the latest version of unreals newest engine so it does require you update your software drivers.
I wanted to ask you a question.
When are you planning to release a demo on Steam?
I can't just buy games on sites like Patreon, itch.io and similar analogues (except Boosty).
I buy other you project, Inheat is released in steam.
most likely, this project will not be inferior in quality to that project.
The demo will be on steam once it's ready. Which is likely around the launch of v023. The next patch is v022d so two patches from now.
Changed a key binding (C to crouch) mid game and it caused all the other buttons to not work. The mouse could still look around but literally nothing else worked. Had to Alt F4. Also every time I start up the game it asks me to reinstall C++
The options freeze is a big bug we've been trying to nail down for a while. Have you got the dependencies installed correctly?
I believe so but I'll double check
So installed using the manual method and the key not working issue went away but it still asks me to reinstall C++ every time I open the game
If you're having issues with the auto installer try to download and install Visual C++ Redistributable 2022 it is the dependency that keeps rebooting.
can i get the animals to stop being fearful of me? and also, the photo requirements are high
Familiarity is going to be added next patch.
is there an optional setting where u can turn off futa
Yes. In the options menu.
where whats it name or called imma find it and screen shot it thanks
You need to solve the environment puzzle to get her to spawn in the world.
So, I'm having an odd issue after taking several photos, eventually snapping one will cause the world to well...vanish, leaving only the sky. This issue persists even when backing out to the main menu, and only goes away upon restarting the game.
Please try updating your graphics driver.
hiya. hecking love the game so far and i couldnt help but notice with the new version but..... is MALO gonna be a character to find in game? noticed i had a missing creature in my pedia but i went looking and couldnt find anything.... would be super cool if MALO kinda starts showing up in the background of pictures you take. like you take a pic of a creature and when you check the image later MALO is just. in the background. then randomly getting closer till it shows up physically in game. could become a predator for a while and after a set amount of predator hunting sex encounters it could become more of a passive character hanging out at camp and you can have sex with it in any position you learn from other creatures. or a summon to fuck whatever creature youd like MALO to fuck. my ten cents. do with them as you will. i have no knowledge of coding or game making and i imagine this would be stupidly hard to do..
Malous has a environment puzzle to beat before she starts spawning. She will be invisible to the eye and put photos in your temp storage if she's ypu.
i figured it out. its a really good malo model and its super creepy and fun how she turns up in the world. very good work. well worth the effort to puzzle her in :)
Glad you like her!
will there be a steam key when purchased the game on itch?
No. If you'd like to own it on Steam please wait for the steam release.
In patch 0.23, they plan to add predator AI for all monster girls/boys.
Finally, after all this time, there will be an opportunity to be caught and raped (mostly I will play for the guy).
I hope the monster girls will catch me (won't they do it?)

Not sure why you thought a open world photography game wouldn't focus on taking photos. It's okay if the game isn't for your tastes but you gotta recognize the weirdness of your complaint.
The code execution cannot proceed because Open ColorIO_2_3.dll was not found
Yes. This is already fixed. Just redownload the exe installer and reinstall and it will work.
is there a reason why paypal is not an option ?
PayPal banned us for making porn. So we can it use it.
So there is a bug. When you put the camera resolution on 4k, save and close the settings, you wont be able to move or click to open anything. You need to literally alt f4 the game.
There is a menu bug that happens sometimes if things move too quick. We will be looking for a fix. However your setting should save and be fine for the next load.
Ah, okay :)
is there another way to pay for this game other than with card
You can get the game on GOG, or you will need to wait for Steam release as we cannot connect Paypal here due to them banning our accounts for making pornography.
the game is banned on those platforms in my country :/
That really sucks really wanted to play it
I will get the game up on spicygaming soon. That is region free.
I'm wondering if the game won't be available on Steam during the beta period? Paying on itch is a bit difficult for me
After we get past v023 we will be focusing on Steam. So close but a little more work is needed first.
Will this game be available in Android?
I don't think so. We can try as we get more free time.
dont know whats going on but i keep getting blue screened and my pc restarted twice now. gone pass on this update before pc bricks
Ahhh I dunno how that's possible. The only thing I can think of is if your hardware might be faulty as the game uses vram to hold temp photos and such.
Not sure why it does that but my anti-virus pops up on the game. I've ran past updates with not much problem for about a year now. the most i'd get is my anti-virus pops up on most updates on launch of exe. But i can clear it then the game runs fine.
Ah well not sure what it's being flagged for as it's just an unreal game. It might be time to dig a little deeper into your PC to look for issues
most games from itch get false flagged its nothing big. Just never got the blue frown screen before. but i do remember the launcher exe not having the .exe at the end of it. The games past updates sometimes had errors on launch of the app most of the time its nothing. also when i download the windows file instead of the installer chrome flag the download.
Let's fucking goooooooooo!
Ooos!
so the play is caught by a none futa dose that mean it will still show
Can you try this one again? I didn't understand what you said.
i think it's "so if the player is caught by a non futa will it still show an animation?" this is just my guess though.
yeah that what i meant sorry
why was the pc installer uploaded again?
To fix a bug inside the installer itself.
