You play as the main character, Stu Longwood. You can rename the character anything you would like. Stu has just moved out of his mother’s house and is planning on renting an apartment at Paradise Lofts with his girlfriend Penny Albright. Stu is a photographer and met Penny during a shoot that made her famous. Stu normally takes pictures for Raceways & Tracks magazine.

Now, when you look out the window in your room you will have a Snap photos for Dex? option. Selecting this option will load film into the camera so that you can take pictures of girls. You need to take pictures of three different girls and they can’t be “action” shots, think shower time.
