Mystwood Manor v0.4.0

Hey guys,

I hope you all had a nice Christmas.
Unfortunately, mine was rather stressful:

My render machine “died”on me.
I couldn’t even get it to boot after 2 days of trying everything I could think of, including a full reinstall. Then I tried swapping graphic cards with my development machine to see if that was the cause. That was a mistake.

Long story short, both my system are unusable and I will probably have to replace some hardware. However, during Christmas (no to mention shops being closed due to Covid) that was not an option. So This means I am not able to add the content I have been working on the last week to this update. It’s still a pretty big update(check out the change log underneath), but it doesn’t have any sexual content.

I’m really sorry, as I was planning on releasing a bigger update. I will add this content (and a lot of new scenes) for January’s update and I promise that it will be a big content update.
I hope you will still enjoy the new content, but if you are looking for new sex scenes,you should probably wait until next month.

Note: Existing saves can be copied over by moving the profiles folder from the previous version to this one. Any guests in your current save will not have activities, just complete their stay. New guests will have activities as normal.

This version may have some bugs, as I wasn't able to finish it.

All the best,
Faerin
