Heat 0.5.5.2 Milestone - Marina dialogue, Marina dom mode dialogue, and skin/clone swapper! (Patreon)
Content
This month we're giving marina dialogue, voiced by her VA, Bordeaux Black! A unique twist to this one is we're giving her a dominatrix mode, where she'll give commands for you to follow.
We've also adding a skin swap interface and and the ability to creat``e multiples of the same character. You can now have multiple skin mods and choose between them. Find the mods on the Discord by linking your Discord with Patreon.
Try it out, and give us feedback in the Discord!

Common Solutions to Game Issues
These are common solutions to many problems, ranging from the tongue not spawning to the game not launching in VR, or the game not authenticating. Try these out first if you're having issues, they work surprisingly often. If they don't work, message me and I'll be glad to help.
All issues (try these first):
- Right click on verifyintegrity.ps1 and select 'Run with PowerShell' to validate your files. If this fails, redownload the game. The download got corrupted.
- Make sure the game isn't installed within any folders that have winky faces or other unusual characters in them at any part in the path. This includes characters from other languages.
- Restart the game and your computer
Auth issues:
- If you have a localhost error in your browser, press the auth trouble button below the authenticate button and follow the directions exactly.
- Check "use alternate port" below the authenticate button
- Run the game as admin
- Make sure an antivirus isn't messing with Heat
- Make sure game is let through firewall
- Set a different browser to default temporarily
- Disable adblocker temporarily
- Disable any security that could prevent your computer from opening a socket and accepting a connection temporarily
VR issues:
- Adding the game as a non-steam game then running from within SteamVR (if not working in VR)
- Press P to switch to 2D mode and L to switch to VR mode on your keyboard
- If your hands don't work, reset SteamVR bindings for the game. If you can't do this, launch the game from the .exe, not from the Steam shortcut
- If you're using Oculus and the game doesn't launch in VR, launch SteamVR and sit in it for about 30 seconds then run the game from within SteamVR
- Reinstall/validate SteamVR and Oculus software
- Update video drivers
- Clicking on the game window with your mouse when the game is open then putting on your VR headset (if the UI laser doesn't work)
- Make sure the game isn't installed within any folders that have winky faces or other unusual characters in them at any part in the path. This includes characters from other languages.
