Hey there, fellow Magnates! We're back with an exciting update that's set to revolutionize your hotel management experience. Get ready to pamper your guests and pump up the adrenaline because we've got three exciting additions to unveil. From the tranquil world of the spa to the high-energy vibes of the gym, and the long-awaited elevators, this update is packed with game-changing features that will take your hotel to new heights!
Spa Serenity:
Step into the serene oasis of relaxation as we introduce Spa Guests to your luxurious establishment. These guests are all about finding tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of your hotel. With new challenges and benefits, catering to Spa Guests requires a delicate touch. We've brought in a range of spa-centric furniture, including mud baths, saunas, sensory deprivation tanks, nail salons, tanning booths, and more! But here's the catch - Spa Guests generally prefer a quieter and tidier environment, so you'll need to strike the perfect balance to keep them happy. Let the soothing vibes flow, and watch your spa empire thrive!
Fitness Fanatics:
For those Magnates who love the rush of adrenaline and the clank of weights, we're introducing Gym Guests to your hotel! These fitness enthusiasts come with their unique set of challenges and perks. To cater to their active lifestyle, we've added an array of gym-focused furniture, featuring chin-up bars, punching bags, cycling machines, rowing machines, a cutting-edge VR workout machine, and more! But beware, Gym Guests might not be the best companions for the cleaner and quieter guests in your hotel. So, create the ultimate fitness haven and let your Gym Guests break a sweat in style!
The Rise of Elevators:
A massive shoutout to all of you Magnates who participated in our voting platform - your voices have been heard! The long-awaited elevators are finally making their grand entrance into the world of Hotel Magnate! Say goodbye to the hassle of navigating stairwells, as these elevators will make traversing your hotel a breeze for your guests and staff. Choose from three stylish variations to suit the aesthetic of your establishment. Not only do elevators save space, but they also add a touch of sophistication to your hotel's design. Get ready to elevate your guests' experience and streamline their journey through your thriving hotel!
With the introduction of Spa Guests, Gym Guests, and the revolutionary Elevators, this update is bursting with excitement, challenges, and boundless possibilities. Stay tuned for more updates – every second week, we're sharing news on the progress of Hotel Magnate in our special Steam posts.

Fixed a bug where changing levels on a dungeon resulted in a black screen
Fixed a few quest bugs where some quests mention goblins but show skeletons in the quest log and vice versa

Sleeping in your tower should now remove the Overexertion status as it should
Fixed a bug where applying 10 stacks of Chilled does not cause the Frozen effect

Using VPet problem solutions / compilation to see the exact cause
Solutions to Common Problems
Here are some solutions to common problems, other VPets that are fault tolerant have tried to be fault tolerant themselves
Opened flashback/can't see anything/can't open
If you can open it before, but now it won't open, you can try to close the mod/reset the archive through the VPET problem solver - Setting Editor.
Stuck at trying to load animation and generate cache on startup
If your computer has poor performance, the first time you start up or update the animation, the cache generation will indeed be slow, please be patient!
Stuck at Loading Steam Workshop during startup
If you have a bad internet connection, or are playing Steam Workshop, or are just unlucky, you may get stuck here for a while, I sometimes get stuck here for 1-5 minutes when I'm writing my own games, it's usually caused by internet fluctuations. If you don't use the Creative Workshop mod, you can double-click the logo to skip it.
Win7 No screen after opening
(It also works on Win10/11 with effects turned off, but it's usually a Win7 problem) You need to turn on all animation effects in your system Control Panel - System Properties - Performance. Activate the options "Enable desktop compositing" and "Use visual styles on Windows and buttons". Related Video Tutorials
If it still won't open, you need to try compiling VPet's source code to locate the problem.
Compile VPet source code
It's hard to fix bugs without error messages and locations, so if you're a little computer savvy, you can try manually compiling the VPet source code yourself to see if there are any problems. Source: github https://github.com/LorisYounger/VPet/
If you have problems trying to compile, or you find a specific error, please contact me at service@exlb.net or at github issue. I'll try to fix it.
