As promised I got a draft of the Day 1 Ariane in Paradise completed and thought I'd share. There are several small changes to the game I am making, nothing major, but it does require some new pictures here and there that I thought I'd share in this update.
I'm making this patch available to all levels as the game itself has been out a few years, and I assume most of my Patreons already have it. If you don't, it will be the featured "Dater" game next month in December, or you can find out how to get it here.
The first is a bug that has been in the game since the last big update. Rachel borrows the player's red top while Ariane buys her a T-Shirt. There are two versions of the red shirt depending if you are playing as a male or a female, but somehow this scene always shows the female top regardless of which gender you play as. I rendered a male version, but it never made it into the game. Here it is.

The second is at the beginning of the same scene where Ariane helps Rachel take off her dress. I noticed the scene goes on a while with the same picture, so I added a second picture with Rachel out of the dress already.
I'm including three other pictures below which are a changes to the "bonus" version of the ship photo shoot. In the bonus, there is supposed to be a lot more nudity, but this scene stand out as one that needs it. I won't describe the new scene, but you can check out the pictures if you want.
Changes to Ariane in Paradise Day 1
If you are new to Patreon patches, it involves downloading the zip file and extracting to where your ArianeInParadise.exe file is located on PC. On Mac or Linux see the README file, and letting it overwrite files with the same name.
The main change, besides voicing the characters, that I am making to the game in version 1.50 is to make it easier to unlock the "Bonus". All you need to do is finish one game of the "best ending" (the one that ends in the hotel lobby where one of the women decides she doesn't need a swimsuit), then in character creation, you will see an option to create a "naked" player character, with the inability to see the stats as you play.
Some minor changes: 1. I'm trying to get rid of menu choices with only one choice in them. This is dependent on choices made previously, so I have to add new code as I go. 2. Ariane (or all NPCs really) will say the line that introduces the choice. If you play with text feeding onto the screen, you might find this annoying. The default setting now is to not feed the text. 3. When you click on a line to say, you will see your character say it with an emotion before Ariane (or all NPCs) react. This is how all the other Date Ariane Games work, just adding it to Ariane in Paradise. 4. The game is filled with unnecessary quotes around words the player or the NPC's say. I did this to distinguish between saying and acting, but found it distracting and unnecessary in future games, so I am getting rid of it here.
Note: I haven't started updating the Spanish Translation yet, so many lines will show up untranslated. Before the project is finished I will get that done.
