• additional post-training and continuing content for Donna (1,895 new images, approx.. 13,000 new lines of code)
• Elsa and Chelsea mutual scenes (4 event scenes if they are both bi-sexual and your girlfriend; 3 event scenes if Elsa is bi-sexual and a Domme and Chelsea is your slavegirl; a recurring scene you can trigger if they are both your slavegirls; 192 new images)
Changed:
• visiting Donna’s husband after she’s a cum slut no longer brings her training to an end

Artwork related:
• some Cassandra artwork upgraded and some art added, extending existing scenes (17 new images)
• some Chelsea artwork upgraded
• some Lauren artwork upgraded
• all of Dee’s artwork upgraded and expanded
• all of Donna’s artwork upgraded and expanded
Modding and core system related:
• Dee’s content re-structured to make it easier to add new content for her, including she now has her own script separate from Donna’s

0.7p
Fixed:
• all bugs reported for 0.7o2, I believe
Added:
• new and expanded content for Elsa during training, post-training continuing actions, and for all of various final states (Elsa’s total artwork increased to 3,678 photos from 1,015; Elsa’s script is up to 25,398 lines of code from 8,167 lines of code, although some of that is a reflection of how inefficient I am when writing code)
• content for Elsa and Bree together (when Bree a slave and Elsa a slave or bi-sexual Domme)
• content for Alexis and Bree together (when both slaves)
• small additions to Chelsea so that the ring of sexuality integrates better with her bi-sexuality training and she has a new initial scene with the couple in the Swingers Room if she is already bi-sexual (thanks to the ring or a transformation potion)
• added messages during Donna’s training when otherwise hidden stats (sex_preparation_count, strip_preparation_count and bimbo_training_count) change to provide greater clarity regarding the impact of some training choices.
Changed:
• Elsa’s training has been cleaned up, improving consistency of stat changes.
• Introducing Elsa to activities during her training where she can take charge will now make it easier to convince her to become a Domme post-training
• Added notification when a client or former client is under the influence of a love potion and improved consistency for how it and the trigger implanted notification is displayed after examining the character or reviewing their file or relationship status
• Can no longer waste a butt plug on Lauren after it’s no longer helpful for her training
Artwork related:
• Elsa’s artwork upgraded – this was the primary focus of this release, and included expanding many scenes
• Tracy’s artwork upgraded
• some Lauren artwork upgraded
Modding and core system related:
• Elsa’s sex and obedience training scenes are now in an expandable menu to make it easier to add new content

v0.7o
Fixed:
All bugs reported for 0.7n, I believe
Bonsai Tree and Suggestion Pill resistance modifiers now work correctly (lower client resistance rather than raising it) A lot of small “clean up” items to improve game flow (image changes, grammar, etc.)
Added:
Post-training content for Alexis the Personal Assistant; this was the main focus of this update
New client selection system giving players three choices: 1. default system, 2. random allocation of clients to waves without reference to your reputation, and 3. full player choice of which clients become available in each wave.
Notification when examining or reviewing files for a character if a hypnotic trigger has been implanted
Changed:
New prospects no longer become available while you have an existing client
Training period for Alexis extended by 2 weeks
Training success thresholds for Alexis are also now easier, while getting the money bonus from her boss for training her is more difficult
Artwork related:
All of Alexis’ artwork has been upgraded
Some location background, items and miscellaneous scene images resized and upgraded from Rags to better fit image window
Modding and core system related:
Nothing material other than items mentioned above

v0.7n
Fixed:
All bugs reported for Wife Trainer 0.7m, I believe
Added:
Lee the Psycho can now become your Domme (cheat code to open up this content: $ lee.domme_you_status = 2)
a few new scenes for Chelsea as your girlfriend
Changed:
Chelsea’s training has been cleaned up, improving consistency of stat changes. Many of her training scenes have been expanded and improved.
Anne’s third session should now be properly shut off (prior content was buggy and contemplated additional scenes that aren’t yet implemented)
Artwork related:
Chelsea’s artwork upgraded – this was the primary focus of this release, and included expanding many scenes
some Bree artwork also upgraded, but no expansion to any of her scenes Modding and core system related:
Lee’s content is now in a separate script
Chelsea’s date scenes are now in an expandable menu to make it easier to add new content

v0.7m
Fixed:
All bugs reported for Wife Trainer 0.7l, I believe
Includes bug that prevented you from talking to Ivy about becoming a stripper in some situations.
Includes bug that prevented Tammy-Lynn watersports activities from opening up
Includes fix for bonsai tree (now lowers client Resistance after effective pruning, instead of raising it!)

Added:
Sarah’s post-training content. This is the main focus of this release.
System to allow you to select the 3 clients to appear in wave one. This particular system is temporary, but for now allows you to start with Sarah, for example, to see her new content without playing through to wave 3.

Changed:
Added optional ‘quest’ from Geri the Real Estate Agent to sign paperwork with Janice at the beginning of the game. This is to direct new players to the Janice / Marilyn content.
Ivy no longer excluded from satisfied client count for Dark Arts Store access purposes
Chelsea’s text changed to a more legible colour

Artwork related:
Upgraded Fairyn’s artwork, including expansion of her training session.
Upgraded Sarah’s artwork
Started to upgrade Chelsea’s artwork (work in progress)

Modding and core system related:
Tags to show exact stats are now separate from the player trait tags that drive character reactions, allowing these functions to be modded separately, and potentially making it easier for mods that add new stats.
Rae’s exclusive girlfriend process converted to be consistent with Becky Sue’s.
Eliminated “rem action” wherever possible, so that these actions are now shut off with a tag, instead of being removed. This should make it easier to restore these actions (or shut them off in other ways) by simple tag removal (or addition).

v0.7k
Fixed:
All bugs reported from Wife Trainer 0.7j

Added:
Post-training content for Becky Sue (this is the major new content focus of this release)
Tammy Lynn, Becky Sue’s friend, a new potential character if Becky Sue becomes your girlfriend
Additional Hannah booty call scenes, doll scenes, and a club masquerade ball scene
Additional uses for Marilyn’s IOUs, which can now be used to as a back stop to gain Club access, an alternate route to get Janice on retainer, and may allow you to play with Marilyn at the Club when you otherwise couldn’t
An alternate route to getting Janice on retainer through the Club President’s revised reward system
Moneybags trait unique impacts on some conversations and test modifiers for Amy, Becky Sue, Fairyn, Gloria, Janice, Kitty and Taylor (note: Kitty’s and Taylor’s dates still not implemented) plus now has its own right hand panel background image.
A help menu on some game concepts, to ease introduction to the game (also links to understanding client stats in in Ivy the Introductory Wife’s client review report)
New minor item that can make a woman bisexual without it counting as a transformation.

Changed:
Moved Becky Sue to first wave, pushed Elsa to second, and Lauren to third. This may be temporary, but Becky Sue’s post-training content extends so long that for now I want to allow it to get started earlier. Plus it makes it easier for those who want to try out just her new content from the current release.
Reduced escalator on financial domination requests to +5 from +25, to keep them from getting out of hand too quickly.
Club President now only gives out a maximum of one transformation potion and only as a special reward; this is for story line consistency (same limit previously applied to the Dark Arts Store and Marilyn, so now the Club President is on the same footing)
Marilyn now takes a cut of your whore income if you have too many whores; this is for story line consistency of her being at the centre of such activities in this city
Hannah whore income adjusted upwards so that taking her as a whore doesn’t end up costing you money after Marilyn’s cut
Transformation potion and Will-Tamer conversion menus should now all include an “undo” option to avoid having to reload an old save if you don’t like the options presented to you (but only after seeing the options, not after selecting one; would still need a save if you choose a conversion option and then want to backtrack).

Artwork related:
Hannah’s artwork upgraded, including many expanded scenes (this was the major artwork upgrade area for this release)
Tracy and Diamond shared scene artwork upgraded

Modding and core system related:
Marilyn’s reward and IOU systems re-done to simplify modding
Club President’s discussion and reward systems re-done to simplify modding
Janice’s reward system re-done to simplify modding
Trading a current relationship to the slave traders re-done to simplify modding
Tracy’s date choice is now an expandable menu, making it easier to add new options
Becky Sue’s new content coded with a view towards enhanced ease of adding new content, such as job options

Next steps:
We’re getting close to the end of the 0.7-cycle. Current priorities are to fix any bugs reported with Wife Trainer 0.7k.
Next priorities include:
artwork upgrades: completing the image upgrades is a key remaining task before we move into 0.8
save compatibility: Digital Bonsai has implemented a system that should allow old saves to be compatible with new patches once we get to 0.8 (this won’t happen until 0.8, though)
mod support: we’ve continued to add support to the core engine based on modder requests so as to have as clean a back end as possible for mod support going into Wife Trainer 0.8
quality of life improvements: with bigger projects out of the way with, I’m now starting to pay more attention to smaller things that can help make the game experience flow more smoothly
consistency passes: I’ve started to take a look at energy use consistency, reviewing TA actions in 0.7i, and expect to do more of this in the future
content: next up is Sarah’s post-training content (with Alexis’ to follow in the subsequent release)

v0.7i
Fixed:
All bugs reported from Wife Trainer 0.7h.
Added:
New introductory client, Ivy, who precedes the original “first wave” of clients. Her first couple of weeks act as a mini-tutorial for new players. She can be skipped if desired, or you can try to generate one of the nine outcomes that will successfully train her. She has a relatively short training period and a relatively large variety of weekend content (since you’ll be spending time with her most weekends during her training). Continuing action content is also implemented for her. Adding Ivy at the beginning of the game creates better pace for some events. She’s also a “normal” client, so that new players aren’t immediately confronted with some of the unique aspects to Chelsea, Elsa, and Jasmine’s characters.

Changed:
Dinner with Nicole and her husband can now be delayed. Flagged value of bringing wine for new players by adding a small cost to it.
Reduced energy costs associated with training actions when you use a Teaching Aide.
Reduced odd job fee to 15 from 20. Money has been loose for a while and I haven’t yet implemented any good new ways to absorb it, so tweaking this down in the interim. This also helps differentiate game play as the Moneybags optional trait.
Fairyn’s text and background colours combination changed to improve readability
Artwork related:
Partial upgrade of Hannah’s images (approximately one-third of her images).
Nicole’s on-going visits segregated by type under “Contact” to make artwork more consistent through the scene.
Modding and core system related:
Package conflict resolution system added (conflicts disabled: see Digital bonsai for details)
wt_image now searches for videos first, then images with the same name (unless restricted with ‘image_only’ as follows wt_image image_only image_name), to facilitate mods who want to provide optional movies to replace certain images.
Made odd job fee a variable to facilitate easy adjustment.
Back end changes (versioning system) to prepare for increased backwards compatibility beginning with 0.8, but not active for modding yet.
Small improvements to the client template.

Important notes:
regarding the current build:

Old saves will not be compatible. When we get to 0.8, our expectation is that old saves will be compatible throughout the 0.8 cycle, but that’s not the case in Wife Trainer 0.7
All images are included in the build. When we get to 0.8, the expectation is that images in 0.8a will not need to be downloaded again for future 0.8 patches/expansions, but that’s not going to be the case until all artwork is upgraded, and that’s not going to happen until the 0.7 cycle is finished
