Yeah so I kept poking at this stuff instead of doing other stuff I should do. It’s not 110% tested, so there’s a 20% chance your characters will light on fire and die. You’ve been waaaarrrrrned! (There will be another patch tomorrow to clean up bugs and MAYBE do level 10 if I feel particularly froggy.)
($10 Patreon backers can grab their artpacks now as well – they’re posted over on Patreon!)
0.7.58 Changelog:
- Level 9 is now achievable!

- New Item: Frontrack Cream
New Since Last Public Release:

Dang that was fast, here’s hoping that you feel froggy tomorrow 😀
I’ve never heard froggy used to in that way before, but whatever.
Well guess that makes tech specialist that much harder to play as a ranged weapon using character.
It really shouldn’t, though. Before they could only be played as a ranged character. Now they can be ranged OR melee.
Volley was much more useful to Overcharge due to the general superiority of blind to stun as a survivability condition. Volley was a offensive + defensive skill. Overcharge is simply an offensive skill, and not a clearly superior option for that role over Volley.
Plus Overcharge only has a damage increase of 150% compared to Volley’s 200%.
Volley’s two extra shots had an extra ~30% miss chance. If you normalized the math, it’d be closer than you’d think.
Over time you’re right, the two do average together, but in a single battle, namely a boss fight, that extra 50% meant a lot, especially since you could just keep trying, hoping RNG would be on your side this time.
Not to pour gas on a burning bush, but volley also synergized very well with second shot.
I’m not going to jump on the wagon that says overcharge is an absolutely inferior skill, but compared to the firepower potential of volley, it does come across as underwhelming.
Just adding in my 2 cents. Tech is my favorite class, but I’ve always chosen Volley rather than Overcharge ever since my own personal testing. Volley was better, point blank. I could counter that 30% miss chance with accuracy+ gear. If I missed one hit with Volley I could still blind and do 2/3rd damage. With Overcharge a miss is no damage, no stun, waste of energy that still can’t be easy replaced. Unlike with the other two classes a missed special isn’t that bad. They can regen energy. I miss one Overcharge and that might be the only reason I lose a boss fight. As a tech I get no ‘once per battle’ energy boost. Tech is just so much more a luck based class, and now it’s more so, because you took out the Tech’s best attack ability.Personally, I’d rather you kept Overcharge (didn’t even need a new name) and made it melee rather than take the one good attack that class had.
Overcharged shot is an absolutely inferior skill
I take back my earlier comment. The increased chance to stun from intelligence stat is very nice. Blindness wasn’t removed, but shuffled to the charge shield ability. The damage lost on the 150% vs 200% is also shuffled to the the skill that makes drones better according to intelligence. Frankly I like the new Techie a lot. Good stuff fen. Give it time guys.
Huh, if the blind got moved to charged shield then that actually works pretty well. Still doesn’t address the problem that overcharged shot is really not that good.
Only reason I was able to survive boss fights, specially the level cap ones was volley. Since kept getting steam rolled, otherwise you got out danaged and just pretty much eaten alive. Always saw tech as more range than melee. Melee is more a merc thing. As most of the heavy difficulty fights involved enmies using insane ranged weapons that took out your shields nearly in a single hit. And your hps so quickly you’re only option was volley blinding, with the gravity AoE forget its name. Otherwise just felt like the encounters were meant for characters with unknown weapons and rediculous stats. At least from my end
Will the level 10 one be Public as well, or is it going to be Backer, along with the Kiro+Kally+PC threesome?
so where do I find all this new content at?
One is at the new texas gym. The other I have no clue.
ya I found the dragon already need to find the other one
Tarkus, random encounter chance in the combat area until you deal with him multiple times, then you can find him in the bar
http://www.fenoxo.com
Bravo.
MY FAVORIT WEBSITE EVER!!!!!!!!!
And here we see the idiot trap, designed to trick the idiot into looping endlessly around forever.
I still have volley on my save?
If you already have the perk, it’s still there. Just not attainable for new characters.
Your level up menu might be fucky and let you pick another skill though.
So does the possible destruction occur from using the updated version, or achieving level 9?
Both.
hmmm, I think I might wait til the next one
That, or make clone saves :/
I’ve heard from reputable sources that the destruction only has a 1 in 2^64 chance of happening…
Thanks for the level 9 patch. Still could use some tweaking imho but it’s a strong step towards completion. Good stuff.
You posted two different versions of 0.7.58 in the backer builds list. Accidental duplicate or is there any meaningful difference?
Indeed. I just posted below… The plot thickens. Hashes are MD5
Public “public” build available via the normal public download link.
TiTS_0.7.58_Tainted.swf
30,006,602 byte
39B134C7EE44901A01A8BDCB40F4B6F6
Backer tainted build.
TiTS_0.7.58_Tainted.swf
30,006,626 bytes
FC9757B2AA600CE728E5081245C83F80
Backer non-tainted build (whatever tainted means.)
TiTS_0.7.58.swf
30,006,737 bytes
BAE77B2EC23552D93FE793BB3225F697
111 extra bytes… Hmmmm…. Interesting. Very interesting.
The 24 extra bytes from Public to Backer is obviously related to the check for Backer status.
Lol. If that is the case and Fenoxo and crew are tagging backer builds with some kind of identifier or GUID that is unique to each user… well that sounds like a pain, and more power to them. I don’t pay them because I think I can’t pirate it. I pay them to fund more development. ^_^ I was just super curious if there was some content difference.
Derp wrong post… I’m up too late.
Awesome! Thanks for the surprise. I do have a question about this public build versus the backer build. The file names/version are exactly the same, but the backers build is 20 bytes bigger, and of course the hashes don’t match. What’s the difference? I’m a recent backer, and I was under the impression that public builds and backer builds of the same version were exactly the same, but clearly there is some minor difference. 😉
From what I remember when I looked into this (I always compile my builds from source code when there’s source available — which there SHOULD be now, but it looks like someone forgot to post it), there’s some bytes tacked on the end by a script on the server so that if you share backer builds he can identify who is sharing the builds and take away their download permissions or something like that.
You can remove them in a hexeditor or ignore them.

I’ve not tried the backer builds of 0.7.58 yet, so I dunno if there’s a difference in the “tainted” vs. “un-tainted” builds. But if I run them through a decompiler tomorrow I bet that slight size difference between “tainted” and “non-tainted” means something. The public build’s 24 bytes? not so much.
Nice patch, so who would you likely to get dieases from?
Dunno who I got it from exactly, but I got some form of one while fucking everything that moves in the wilds of Tarkus.
Like what, after how many tries, I’ve been fucking everything with a heartbeat there, and nothing.
Fairly sure you get Locofever from the Raskvel. I haven’t found any others yet though.
Got Furpies C from the Naleen. IDK if it’s thematic which you get or entirely coincidence. If thematic I would guess you get the D strain from the Korgonne or whatever on Uveto and the H strain from some horselike NPC.
How long did it take for you to get furpies C? I do you have to be female or male options to get it?
Can’t reply directly to Space urta for some reason here.
I don’t think it took too terribly long to get furpies C? My character was female and I was going after both genders of Naleen. I guess perhaps somewhat relevant detail to throw in is that I accidentally lost to a Mimbrane right before the Furpies dialog first procced. I’m like 99% sure it was coincidental timing though.
Further experiments: I’ve tried for about an hour or 2 with the Korgonnes but haven’t gotten anything yet. I’d assume since I got the C strain from Naleen it makes sense that the Korgonnes gave the D strain and then a horse NPC (since there aren’t fightable centaurs/horses in the game as of yet) gave the H strain. I tried for 15 minutes each with Aina and Ellie (taur body idk) with no results. I’ve also been accepting the Dryad’s offer every time I see her but nothing. Maybe Sylvie is another option but I haven’t been to New Canada as of yet because I don’t like the paths to get there at the moment.
Boy this sure would be a lot fucking easier if Fen actually posted where the content was added instead of just vaguely putting it in the patch notes like “hehe its a treasure you have to find with no hint! also the treasure isnt there when you look except VERY rarely!!! hehe !!!!”
I’ve been to the forums, turns out it’s not thematic and was entirely coincidental. So far it seems like the Sydian on Tarkus, Naleen on Mhenga, and maybe the Milodan on Uveto can carry Furpies.
Idk, have you figured it out?
Not a bad month at all, thank you again to all of FenCo. and contributors.
So I’m having some trouble with brandy. My character is not a taur, however when I enter into the sex menu it says that all the non-taur sex options are off limits because I’m a taur. However in her main speech the option for taur sex is not open as it say I’m not a taur.
Ok, I fixed my situation, I was a naleen and after I managed to revert my tail to legs the scenes opened up.
I don’t know if it’s like a bug or something but all the text is in bold? I don’t know what happened, anyone know a way to fix this?
It’s a bug that happens seemingly randomly. Gedan’s been trying to fix it for a while. Report it on the forums to help her out. Something does cause it to disappear after a while though, just try going everywhere and pressing every button
Once they figure out what’s causing it, I’d like them to add a toggle for it, personally. Make it easier to read when I’m staying up late.
That’s happened to me before too, in previous builds that is. Try restarting the game (as in completely exit the game and load it back up, make sure you save first though).

Ninja’d!
Sorry! First time in comments section.
very good this is good stuff and progress. now on to july 7th. 🙂
Where do I find the new weapons?
Two are a reward for getting a complete relationship with Chaurmine, two are in the weapons shop on the top part of Uveto, and one is on Mhen’ga, in the old guy’s weapon shop.
do you have to have sex with chaurmine to complete his relationship or just meet him combat?
I agree with the chaurmine and shop ones but I’m pretty sure the last one is a new thermal weapon sold by the traders out in the glacier
Is it me or did SoAndSo hid a rap reference into some of Mirrin’s button choice?
*coughcough* No comment.
Where is the source code? Shouldn’t that be on GitHub now, if it’s a public build?
Nothing really for me in this update but keep up the great work!
So where or what is Frontrack cream?
FrontRack Cream may or may not add breasts/pecs (up to 10 rows). It’s sold by Lerris.
Only 3 unless you’re goo or naga; if you want more, you’ll have to stick with Tentatool or PupperPoppers.
I just tested it, it’s only up to 5 rows if you’re a goo/naga and 3 for the rest
Wait, what? I wrote it so that everyone could get five rows of two breasts/pecs each! It needs to be reported as a bug
Okay, it seems I forgot about this pearl of wisdom: “Functionality-wise, the maximum number of rows is 10, whereas the appearance menu will only describe up to 5, I think. In-game, the goo menu can only support growing up to 3 (for non-naga/goo lower body ) or 5 (for naga/goo lower body) rows.”
I haven’t tested Tentatool or PupperPoppers yet, but I wanted this item to give Steele as many rows as possible.
hey dude, with this new update, i get nothing but a blank white screen when i try to open the game. some help would be great, thanks
Gotta ask, wheres the synth sheath? I feel its likely in a store but ive missed it?
It’s in the wastelands of Tarkus. Try exploring near where Hand So’s base was.
Two words: Save Editor
Anyone know a way to actually decrease tone? Can’t seem to find one anywhere (preferably without increasing thickness)
Go to Ilaria’s confection shop on the residential deck of Tavros. Order a Gryvain Jiggler. Those decrease your body tone by 10 without messing with your thickness. 🙂
Sweet, thanks
When the release of a public build is just in time for morning wood.
Thanks for fixing my Bothiroc Rifle problem! Whoever is in charge of bug smashing is a wonderful person
What new dreams have been added?
How do you trigger dreams
You can get one dream every month(?) of in-game time when you “Sleep” anywhere the option is available. Resting does not count.
Ok so im aware that to bump up my stats for instance strength,reflexes go to the gym. Intelligence talk to sera about books, but how do you increase your aim?
You can also increase aim at the gym, it’s swimming that does it iirc.
You don’t talk to Sera about Books, she doesn’t even have that option. You talk to SYRI.
For Intelligence, you can also play chess with the Scorpion Pirate dude on the Residential Deck f Tavros Station.
Now the question I have is this: Is there a similar method of raising Willpower, or is raising that one only possible during the stat allocation phase of a Level Up?
I found a bug when playing TiTS on Google Chrome. When I click off the tab where I’m playing TiTS and then return to the game, the tab will lock up, blocking any actions to be processed. This has only occurred on a tab playing TiTS , whether the game is played offline or online.
In Mirrin you’ve cloned my main character, right down to the height, scale colour and ears.
I can’t seem to get Del to move to Canadia Station now, I can’t get their Submissivness above 5 and they’re not moving no matter how long I wait. I kinda wanna see the new scene with the synthsheath and I can’t figure out what I gotta do now
Talk to Beth after fucking him once and either ask to release him unmodified or make him Shemale, doing the latter will feminize him entirely, either way, both options will put him on Canadia after a while.
So where exactly do I find Chaurmine?
hello. <3 what do these diseases do? are they transformation related?
