i have a macbook air and just tried movint the baxter_dlc.rpa into the games folder as instructed (I've done it with Steps, Wedding, and Derek DLCs but never had this issue), and an error occurs. a message called "traceback.txt" pops up, and essentially states that an "uncaught exception occurred" and that it "could not load from archive DLC_Baxter/baxter_s3_drinks1.rpyc."
I tried deleting the first version I downloaded and redownloaded but the same error occurs. Please advise! Also thank you for your hard work and that of the teams. I've followed some of the development of your OL games and they bring me so much happiness (I check in on your tumblr too lol).
Please update the base game of Our Life! The DLC can't work if it's placed into an older game folder. You need build 1.7.0 (or anything that comes after). Deleting an old build of Our Life and downloading it again won't impact your save files/progress.
Oh wow, I am pretty sure I have done this before with new DLCs but I got so excited I forgot ^^" thank you so much, I am going to have an awesome night now haha be well and looking forward to watching the updates on OL2 :D
The wait was worth it! I enjoyed every second of Baxter's DLC, and the growth he undergoes towards the ending (fortunately got his romantic ending on my first try, yey!!!). Even if it saddens me that there won't be more to come, I will happily treasure the moments I spent with his route <3 Congratulations for the hard work guys! You are amazing :D
Am I stupid lol? I tried to go the romantic route with him and ended up as just his friend in step 4. I swear I clicked love at the start?? Do you have to do anything in particular to be romantic with him?
You do have to confess you want to be with him, or make choices where you hope he'll confess to you. Otherwise, you won't get together automatically even if you're at love.
I have been waiting for this! Ive replayed this whole game several times and it looks like im about to add another playthrough to the list. I cannot express how lovely I think this whole game is. Thank you for blessing everyone ♡
Hey guys, the DLC was a blast to play through. Definitely an emotional rollercoaster that had me laughing and crying, from beginning to end. The DLC feels like such a natural expansion of his character, and I felt really privileged to get to know him better. I also thoroughly enjoyed getting a bit more quality time with Terri/y and Miranda, their friendship felt even further cemented with the player and it brought me a lot of joy to see them interact more. Scott and Jude are also way too cute.
I've already commented before on the main Our Life page, but every time I play this, it brings me so much joy. It makes me want to just snap out of the weekly grind and do something fun. Or remind people just how much they mean to me. Life doesn't have to be just this thing that you have to survive. Even though it's way too easy to get swept up in all of our hardships and things outside of our control. There's a lot of things to look forward to; a lot of things to love.
With over 130 hours under my belt, the game has become a precious memory that I'll savor whenever I'm feeling down. Thanks again for all of the time and effort you guys put into delivering quality DLCS and updates years after release. I'm looking forward to eventually playing through OL2 when it comes out.
Things I'm about to say are based on my personal preferences.
SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
To be honest, Baxter was my least favorite of the 3 even without the other dlcs. I do still adore him completely though, which means a lot given how attached I am to Cove and Derek. I have been enjoying this dlc for the most part, until the biggest let down I am having right now with the last moment. I was hoping for something similar with the "Happiness" moment with Cove, wherein the focus was mc and Cove and their beautiful friendship/relationship. Instead, I have a moment that's mostly Terri annoying me and getting on my every last nerve. While this story isn't always about happy scenes, I have never felt this frustrated with it. I guess the moment itself wasn't so bad as it foreshadows Baxter's future career, but it was still very frustrating and made me wish there was an option to abandon Terri. Ah, which reminds me of the car shotgun scene, it made me realize how no one acknowledges the mc and Baxter dating? That was very disappointing. not even mc's lifetime best friend, cove, said anything about it????? i know baxter is new but it felt like no one really cared who he is for mc, aside from liz and moms i guess.
might be updating this once I finish the whole thing, just had to let out my frustration.
Yeah, Hang from Cove's Moment screen will lock Hang on Baxter's screen. But there are rare cases where a Moment is checked off as done even if you haven't played it. If that happened, you can try reloading a save from before you reached the Step 3 Moment screen and see if next time you get there it's working.
hiiii just wanted to say im obsessed with this game and with baxter!! i played it all in one sitting and it was so wonderfully written. baxter is so compelling, complex, and relatable. he feels so real!! so thanks for putting out such a lovely game and spoiling us with dlcs! i can't wait to replay this many times as humanly possible <33
You should update all the DLCs to make sure they function properly with the newer build. The Wedding DLC and the Step 3 do have alterations based on Baxter's DLC.
Hello, how can I transfer my save files from before? I downloaded the latest version (1.7.0). I'm on mac so I have two our life apps the one from before and now the latest version. The latest version recognizes my load files but everytime I load it, I can't skip my read texts anymore.
I want to find the save files so I can transfer it to the latest base game and delete my old one. Please help :((
Hi to anyone still struggling with the payment with card option but can't do Paypal for some reason! You can log-out and purchase the DLC as a gift for someone and send it to yourself, it works just fine that way!
Thanks for reporting the issues. That is a rare bug, and unfortunately the only option to get them to stop being locked is to load a save from before Step 3 started and continue on again to it or to start a new file. We'll try to fix the problem so it doesn't happen again.
I've tried logging out and logging in but I still can't purchase the DLC with my card (got the same error while trying to buy other games as well ) :( maybe it's an itch.io issue?
Hi Hi~ I am totally patiently waiting, but is there an ETA for when backers will get their itch download code? (I did get my steam key, but I've played all the others via itch and I can't break tradition now, DARNIT)
You can use Butler on Itch to update the version you have, or if you don't use Butler you have to delete the whole folder and download it again. Your saves will remain even if you deleted the Our Life folder.
Is it just me or am I stuck in the purchasing screen? Maybe the servers are overloaded 😅 Strangely the status also says "In Development" and the platforms only say Android. Gosh dang it I wanna buy this but the site won't let me 😂
You can try logging out and logging back in. That worked for someone who was having a similar problem. And it is available for more than Android, you just download the zip instead of the apk file!

huaaa i so in love with this game, specially baxter!! when will be more dlc with baxter? holiday or wedding baxterr will do 💕
I'm glad you like him! But I'm afraid not. We're no longer making DLC expansions for Our Life: Beginnings & Always.
The most painful sentence I have ever read. Regardless, thank you so much for sharing Jamie's story with us. Forever grateful!

im getting error when im trying to add the dlc.. can anyone help?
If you give more details, I can try to help!
well.. is the file supposed to be explorer one? it used to be rar file so now i just cant add it to my main file
The file has changed. It's an rpa now and you don't have to open it like a rar. You simply put it as is into the Our Life "game" folder.
HERE COMES DADDY
This was everything I wanted from this ridiculous boy <3 🥂
My favourite twink
For some reason, Hang is greyed out in Baxter's DLC. Do I have to unlock it?
if you did Hang from the base game it greys out Hang from the DLC and vice versa
Yeah, Hang from Cove's Moment screen will lock Hang on Baxter's screen. But there are rare cases where a Moment is checked off as done even if you haven't played it. If that happened, you can try reloading a save from before you reached the Step 3 Moment screen and see if next time you get there it's working.

not sure what to make of it but some help would be appreciated <3
You need to update the base game itself. Adding the DLC to an old version of Our Life won't let it run, I'm afraid!
ohhhh! my bad, thank you for the help! Happy lanch day very excited to play the DLC <3
No problem :D. Thanks for playing!
Hi, another question, should i also update the other dlcs? are there extra baxter content on the latest step 2, 3, and wedding DLC?
You should update all the DLCs to make sure they function properly with the newer build. The Wedding DLC and the Step 3 do have alterations based on Baxter's DLC.
bro i finished the whole DLC in one sitting baxter was so adorable
Hello, how can I transfer my save files from before? I downloaded the latest version (1.7.0). I'm on mac so I have two our life apps the one from before and now the latest version. The latest version recognizes my load files but everytime I load it, I can't skip my read texts anymore.
I want to find the save files so I can transfer it to the latest base game and delete my old one. Please help :((
You would have to start anew as older save files can cause an error due to differences in script in the latest version of the game.
NOOOOOO
Oh well, anything for Baxter XD. I'll start over.
Thank you, my friend.
It's an itch.io issue. Have you tried paypal?
Hi to anyone still struggling with the payment with card option but can't do Paypal for some reason! You can log-out and purchase the DLC as a gift for someone and send it to yourself, it works just fine that way!
I need help guys. My "Hang" and "Errands" moments in Step 3 are locked or greyed out. I'm not sure how to unlock or use them, so any advice? :))
Thanks for reporting the issues. That is a rare bug, and unfortunately the only option to get them to stop being locked is to load a save from before Step 3 started and continue on again to it or to start a new file. We'll try to fix the problem so it doesn't happen again.
Any chance for a all in one collection now that all the dlc is done?
I'm afraid that's not something we're putting together currently or in the near future. Maybe at some point, though.
Only thing I can recommend to the people having issues is using PayPal instead. That works. Otherwise, idk what you can do.
I've tried logging out and logging in but I still can't purchase the DLC with my card (got the same error while trying to buy other games as well ) :( maybe it's an itch.io issue?
Then I'm afraid you'll have to contact Itch themselves. We don't have any way to fix their site if it simply won't work. Sorry for the trouble!
It appears so. Paypal would be your best bet.
I've had issues on other sites where one payment method doesn't work (like paypal) but card does and vice-versa.
is there any other way to get the card purchase to work besides logging in and out?
I'm afraid you'll have to contact Itch themselves. We don't have any way to fix their site if it simply won't work. Sorry for the trouble!
I am going to cry I can't purchase the dlc with my card.
You could try logging out and logging back in. That's worked for other people having problems with Itch.
Hi Hi~ I am totally patiently waiting, but is there an ETA for when backers will get their itch download code? (I did get my steam key, but I've played all the others via itch and I can't break tradition now, DARNIT)
The Itch and Steam codes were sent in the same email! Can you check again for it there?
Oh, I completely missed it/only saw steam key! Thank you for this~ TIME TO GET MAH HEART BROKEN 🤍🖤
No problem!
I have no idea what to do
i got the same thing!
glad i'm not alone at least
You need to update the base game. Putting the DLC in the older version of Our Life will mean it can't load.

how do you update the base game?
You can use Butler on Itch to update the version you have, or if you don't use Butler you have to delete the whole folder and download it again. Your saves will remain even if you deleted the Our Life folder.
idk why it seems the game doesnt recognizethe baxter dlc? do you think u know why¿
I think it has something to do w the fact its only available on Android for some reason?? at least thats how it is for me
It is available for other devices. You need to download the zip file rather than the apk file!
You downloaded the Android build rather than the PC/Mac/Linux version of the DLC!
ahh tsym guys! im gonna try
Is it me or i literally am not able to pay with my card 😭😭😭
You can try logging out and logging back in. That worked for someone who was having a similar problem.
Is it just me or am I stuck in the purchasing screen? Maybe the servers are overloaded 😅 Strangely the status also says "In Development" and the platforms only say Android. Gosh dang it I wanna buy this but the site won't let me 😂
Mine is doing the same!
I'm on android. The pay with card screen wasn't loading for me, but I was able to pay through PayPal.
