Chance's are it is out of date.

Since downloading Python executables from the seedier parts of the internet is a risk, an alternative if you want the story to make any sense is to create the file yourself. This approach shouldn't (hopefully) crash the game, but it might not perfectly align with the wording in any original patch file floating around the internet.

1. Close the game
   
2. Use Steam to open of the local game files; and navigate to the "game" subfolder
   
3. Create a text file called "patch.rpy" - It will be automatically compiled when you run the game.
   
4. First line line should be "label patch:" and the last line should be "return". All lines in-between (discussed below) should indented by two spaces (not tabs).
   
5. Open the "scripts.rpa" file in a text editor (you won't be directly changing anything here as Ren'Py will complain) and look for the string "$ p2 ="
   
6. Copy everything from the 'else' block this line is a part of, until the indentation stops (e.g. line "$ p1" to line "$ m"). Paste as the indented in-between lines of the patch.rpy file.
   
7. Add an indented line to the patch script of "$ persistent.patch_enabled = True"

Once you've done this and checked a new game doesn't crash within the first scenes of game play; you can start experimenting with the name combinations. Revisions will require re-deleting any compiled "patch.rypc" file.

Broadly speaking, Mother / Aunt / Sister / Cousin match up to the first letter of their respective names. Which nouns to use can be (mostly) inferred from the context of their variable use in sentences in the scripts.rpa file. e.g. "He's my [m3]"

Game censorship is a complex topic with vast cultural differences, but the decision to circumvent it should be left to the discretion of each player.

Also if your game currently doesn't run and you have no save games to worry about, reinstalling the game first is a good bet. As verifying a game's files won't prune extra files in the install folders that may be present (usually a good thing), so if your patch file is busted - delete it.

The patch from lewd patcher worked fine for me, make sure the version matches the game version. I also learned that you need to manually delete old patches from your main folder, especially if using Mega and having patches from multiple games. They do something funky if you DL them with another patch in the folder, and then don't work properly.

Is there an exact amount of code lines that should be copied in step 5 (there was only an example given)?
What is the 'else' block step 6 is referring too?
Where do i put the command from step 7 to enact the change?

I have never coded before...........


And this lewd patcher, is this a paid service? I am assuming that putting a link here is not recommended.....

Lewd patcher is free, and has tons of family fun times patches for various games. Google is your friend there, as Steam probably won't like a link here.
