🎉 MindWare Version 0.3.9 (Supporters Beta 2)
Supporters Beta 2 is ready. This build continues Ray and Trix's Chapter 2 storylines.
If you gave Ray another chance after the last BrainFry supply-closet scene, both COLOSSAL JOLT replacement choices now continue. The placebo route leads to the Panacea pharmacy and includes a capsule-swap minigame, followed by more content at BrainFry seven days after the pill swap. The feminizing-pill route gets less attention in Beta 2 than the placebo route. For now, it ends with two leads on how to obtain the necessary estrogen pills—one of which will reintroduce the psychiatrist content that was removed from the game a long time ago and that I know some of you have been missing.
Trix’s apartment also has new content that is available independently of Ray’s route. You can talk to her about her transition and finally tell her the truth you previously withheld about AVA. You can postpone this conversation for as long as you like, but you will eventually need to have it to continue the main story. Finishing it sets up a new task involving Aegis, whose playable content will arrive in Beta 3.
This build also contains the fixes from the latest bug-report sweep, including recovery for interrupted S.I.M.S. and Spying Landlord tasks, translation-safe surveillance choices, correct HiveClean return navigation, and reliable EroSphere music cleanup.
Known issue: A recent bug report identified an interruption problem in the existing Aegis Scan 2 sequence. If that sequence appears to stall after a pink heart, do not use your browser's Back button since doing so can make the scan inaccessible. Restore a save from before the scan and send a bug report instead. I am preparing a fix and will include it in Beta 3 (to be released next week).

What's New:
New Content:
Added: Ray's placebo-pill path, including the Panacea pharmacy, supplement-swap minigame, and BrainFry follow-up.
Added: Ray's feminizing-pill path now continues through Trix's hormone history and reveals the planned Panacea and Crash source routes.
Added: Repeat visits to Trix's apartment now include a conversation about her transition and the player's hidden connection to AVA, ending with a new Aegis-related task.
Improvements:
Improved: The new Trix-Aegis meeting task has a visible Work in Progress action at the hideout.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed: The player no longer refers to AVA while talking to Trix before explaining who she is.
Fixed: Short landscape phone screens can scroll long passages and minigames all the way to their action buttons.
Fixed: An interrupted second S.I.M.S. delivery can be resumed at GitGud without losing the disk or the route back into the task.
Fixed: Browser translation no longer makes the correct Sarah Chen surveillance target impossible to select.
Fixed: Leaving the HiveClean application returns to the email or browser page that actually opened it.
Fixed: EroSphere music stops reliably when leaving the club, including through indirect navigation.
Fixed: Interrupted Spying Landlord outcomes can finish safely without repeating rewards or skipping later tasks.
What's Next:
The two clearest continuations are now sitting in the game: arranging Trix's meeting with Aegis, and finishing the Panacea and Crash routes that can supply the feminizing pills for Ray. Those are the next boundaries I want to push forward while I continue the wider Chapter 2 story.
Thank you for your continued support! Enjoy the update, and please send a bug report if anything behaves strangely.

I have a concern: is it normal not to be able to access the Beta 2 pill?
I've just released a new update - please try with it and let me know if it works as you expect now.
when do i get the maid outfit
In an upcoming update (most likely to be released near the end of this month).
I can't seem to access the feminizing path so far. I'll try this new version but I don't know what I might be doing wrong (all paths show me a "end of current content")
You are not doing anything wrong. "The feminizing path" is currently two different things, and both are in an awkward spot right now. 1. Your own character's transition. The Panacea psychiatrist and the hormone-therapy arc were cut from the game a long time ago and are not reachable in any current build, so every route toward them dead-ends. It is coming back, and Beta 2 is the first step. 2. Ray's feminizing-pill route, which is the new content in Beta 2. That one feminizes Ray, not you, and it currently stops at two "Work in Progress" buttons. Reaching Ray's feminizing choice (roughly 25 in-game days): - Chapter 2 started, Trix arrested, freed, and back at BrainFry. - Talk to Ray at BrainFry through all six of his dialogs. They unlock on a day timer, so sleep and check back. - His workplace actions then appear in order: computer spying, break room, toilet, bulge daydream. - In the supply closet with Trix, pick "Take it further". Ray interrupts. - Choose "Ask Trix to give Ray another chance", then "Lie to Trix and Feminize Ray Anyway". Feel free to share your save file with me if you need any more help reaching the new content.
how can i play it with images
The images live in an imgs folder next to the HTML file, so it depends on which download you grabbed. If you downloaded the HTML-only file (about 2 MB), that one deliberately contains no media. Grab the Full Archive (about 3.8 GB) from https://playmindware.com/downloads instead. Extract the whole archive and open the mindware-...html file from inside the extracted folder. If you move the HTML somewhere else, it loses imgs/, audio/ and vendor/ and you get text only. If you updated with the Beta 1 to Beta 2 patch, extract it over your full Beta 1 folder and let it merge and replace files, then open the new Beta 2 HTML. If you would rather not download several gigabytes, you can play the latest public version in your browser with all images at https://playmindware.com. Beta builds are download only.
