[outdated] Romantic Encounters for BG1! - Call for Testers!

Recommended Posts

This is a call for beta testers for the newly created Romantic Encounters for BG1 mod (BG1RE)!

If you are interested, please send me a PM or post here. I will link you to the current build. We also have a hidden Testing forum! You will get access there for your reports and access to the updates.

If you want to test, please make sure BG1RE is the last mod installed, and be ready to update frequently if necessary. You can install other mods if you want (actually, there are few that would need testing, too, like my BGQE v9 beta or Lure of Sirine's Call v13 beta (BG:EE compatible) or the new Bg1UB v13.1 beta (no BG:EE compatibility).

Thank you in advance, and I hope you do enjoy the mod.



----------------
I. Introduction
----------------

Baldur's Gate Romantic Encounters Modification (BG1RE) is a mod for "vanilla" BG1 (it will install with or without the add-on Tales of the Sword Coast, and should work flawlessly with TotSC), BG1Tutu v4, EasyTutu, BGT, and BG:EE, adding several encounters and quests all over the game.

For BG1RE, not every component deals with the PC trying to sneak into someone's pants or vice versa. BG1RE aims at populating BG1 with romantic encounters, intense dialogues, unexpected private dinners, romantic traces of long lost times, and real quests that all deal with true love, fulfilled or unfulfilled.
It also offers encounters for the PC's quick relief, of course, with either paid companions or willing strangers. For some encounters, the female PC should brush herself, as it might be she comes out flustered if she doesn't stop in time.


Note: The "Extension of Bjornin Encounter" formerly included in the mod Baldur's Gate Mini Quests and Encounters Modification (BGQE) is now included in this mod.


This mod is a group effort including lots of components from different authors. Thank you to all who contributed to make this mod possible!



----------------
II. General Info
----------------

1. Rating
-----------------
The ratings of this mod's components are differentiated into Teen and Mature content.

Teen content in this mod means: no description or mentioning of explicit sexual content. It does include (non-explicit) preludes and the aftertalks, but any sexual content is skipped and indicated by a fade-to-black.

Mature content: contains explicit descriptions of intimate actions (though not explicit enough to be called porn) either as action description or in the characters' dialogues (including verbal mentioning of fantasies).


2. Component Types
-----------------
The components are classified in different "Types" to give an idea of what awaits the player.

The types are:

1. Encounters. These either create a new character or extend an existing game character. All action is handled in the dialogue; no quest is attached. All components giving the PC the possibility for intimacies are flagged "Encounters".

2. Quest. These include solving a problem or doing at least a fed-ex errand. They have no possibility for intimacies for the PC.

3. Dialogue. These will either extend an original game character's dialogue or create an encounter with a custom character, but there won't be anything more than talking.

4. Reply option. This does exactly what it says: adding additional reply options, but not necessarily new reactions of the game characters in question.


3. Style of Descriptions
-----------------
The mod offers the choice between descriptive texts and non-descriptive versions. If the "descriptive version" is chosen on install, components that offer descriptive text will have it enabled. There will be some adult content, obviously.

The non-descriptive version is called "BG-style". It has as little descriptive content as possible, which is more in-line with the original style of the BG-games, in my opinion. Instead of description text, this style offers "dialogue based" content instead. Some components, which rely heavily on descriptive text, might be shortened for this style type. This install choice contains adult content.


4. Install Choices
------------------------------------------------------------------
The mod offers three basic install choices in respect to the rating and the style of descriptions. This component is a required component.

[1] "Teen version": Automatically installs the Teen versions of all components that also offer mature content, leaving out additional content for some encounters. Will skip whole encounters that offer no Teen version.

[2] "BG-style": This component has Adult content. It leaves out descriptive content, but offers "dialogue based" content instead. With this install choice all components can be installed.

[3] "Descriptive version": This will have description texts for the encounters that offer a descriptive version. Adult content, obviously. With this install choice all components can be installed.

It's not too late! Most of the volunteers are still waiting for their link, which will come soon, when I alpha-tested BG:EE NPC reactions to the "Girdle of Gender Reactions" component. We are finishing this a bit on the last hurry, sorry for this, but sometimes ideas strike at an unfortunate time. :)

 

Will send links soon.

Hi jastey I could give it a try on BGEE along with BGMQE, but it will probably be a slow run if you don't mind. I would not have as much time for play right now as I would like, but could test a few things nonetheless. I'm still waiting for final BG1 NPC and BG1 UB AND a 1.3 patch to start a proper RP-oriented playthrough, but could sharpen my gaming skills in the meantime.

 

If you are looking for more committed testers, though, then I should probably pass, but if you don't mind slow progress just sign me in :)

 

Besides, I'm starting to think about translating it at some point (if someone will be faster at it, I wouldn't mind at all) and would be great (and logical) to play it first. I don't want to spoil it myself on notepad :p

All right then, sign me in :) I just came up for a crazy idea (at least for me) to play a female character (which I never did for all those years). Are there any specific NPC's for female Charname to benefit the most from RE1? Kivan, Ajantis, Coran maybe? Huh, it could be fun and entertaining :p

Hi, thank you for your interest! Hm, Ajantis doesn't have as much reactions to the girdle of gender change as there are some reactions already covered by BG1NPC Project. (And, you know, the purpose of this mod is to provide the PC plenty of opportunities without the NPC crew! ;) )

 

EDIT: THank you for your interest, SapphireIce101! I will link you to the download.
