[Tairnel]

Compressed version freezing at start and not responding in Windows 7. Can anyone help ?

Y'all it works in compatibility mode for Windows 7, thanks for your advice anyways

Derek's problem is that he is just that, a fun person (and one doesn't always want to have fun).

If MC has a problem can you confide in him? Maybe, but the game tends to tell you no.

when there's something to do Derek disappears, because he's a guy who always ruins everything (his words), once Hells Week is over the relationship with Derek is quite similar to the one with the other DIKs, in fact probably with Jacob, Rusty and Tommy it seems even stronger

I just hope that the MC will start to think by himself and stop following Derek.

Replying to this statement I said:-

Aside from the shit derek has caused for MC so far, he's a good and funny company. It's worth spending time with him [ I sound like a salesman] and his jokes are hilarious.

Here What I meant was that it is not that dangerous or problematic for MC to follow Derek, for now.
And MC still has the options , many times to follow Derek or not. For eg, We have the choice to stay with him in ep4 , we have the choice to go to Pink rose with him later.

And for the very first part of your post "(and one doesn't always want to have fun)." I don't believe that we have that many interactions with Derek in every episode. [ except for ep3 which has the most interactions with derek that can't be avoided]

 

[EmperorGus]

Example: "Assman, I can't tell you why but, if you really like my sister you're probably going to get hurt."

How do you say shit like that though, without people asking, "Why?"

Oh.. they'll always ask 'why?'.
And it's always a matter of saying, "Look.. I just told I can't say why."
And, really, they don't need to know 'why', they just need to know that something is up.

In this case, it's then up to the MC if he's going to talk to Maya about it. If he doesn't talk to her, at least he was warned (and it's something that'll be in the back of his mind.)
If he does talk to Maya about it, it's then up her.
Either way, Derek hasn't betrayed any secrets and he's warned his 'maggot brother' about a problem he was about to be blindsided by.

>shrugs< Just my view on one of Derek's failures.
Now, I fully understand why DPC did not, write in Derek doing the 'brotherly' thing in that situation.
Can't have the big Josy/Maya reveal and chapters worth of drama if he had.
But.. it's still a failure of the character

In the fourth chapter Derek is the choice of the "losers" or those who don't want to take risks by engaging with the other LIs. and of the 3 possibilities he is definitely the worst.

we don't have so many interactions with Derek because he disappears, in the fifth chapter when we go to Bella's he could theoretically come too but he backs out, in the seventh he could come to the HOTs party but he has much more important things to do...

in this second season his role is absolutely marginal

Company? Yes, why not.
Bro? I don't think so.

That's not how bro's acts. Same for MC in most situations, maybe except being a wingman for Derek in ep 7 (the only time he rly did a "bro" move for Derek.)

That's what I am trying to say that his role is too short now, the interactions with him are less. Yeah I agree that Derek has the potential to put MC in troublesome situations but some of his moments are still hilarious and you can't deny that.

Haha, Guys share me your favourite super funny moments from the game. These Derek moments are surely the best tbh
1. Before having fun in tybalt's room:

Do share your funny moment!!!

So in your opinion should we follow Derek or not? Sure there could be more interactions with other DIK members but would you just totally ignore Derek?

Company? Yes, why not.
Bro? I don't think so.

I didn't even say that he's a good bro. He is just a good company and his jokes are hilarious. He just got F in brotherhood.

When Tybalt rang Jill at Bella's that night and Jill panics:

Jill: "No, I don't care about my room. What about my piano?"​

I thought, "oh fuck, that relationship's over." Lucky the piano survived. Got knows how much it cost, his 5K probably wouldn't have covered it... Plus the sentimental value!

Wet piano - dead piano, I know what I am talking about. There is can't be much damage caused than water.

The grand piano Jill playing is a small, about 6 feet size model for practicing. Maybe something cheap garbage like Kawai but it can be something solid like Steinway or Yamaha (in that case MC is fucked).

So you think that piano she received as a bday gift to be cheap garbage It rules out the possibility of being cheap.
PS: Exposure to water can indeed be very damaging to a piano

I downloaded the compression version yesterday...and after the English text it showed some error and the game wouldnt proceed..it said something like couldn't found image..something like that.. i am downloading the uncompressed version now..but if anyone could help

 

[Ottoeight]

Guys, I just want to remind you that making DIK decisions is really funny - I think I smashed Tybalt's face 1 thousand times when I left his party - but...

you're playing a Dr PinkCake game, so you will have to pay the price for your actions, in the end.

So, save often and don't overwrite your saves

If you're using the compressed DL, then you need to replace two files. Info here: https://f95zone.to/threads/being-a-dik-v0-4-1-dr-pinkcake.25332/post-2935610

I know the two files are math related, but trust me, it's the fix for the compressed version. If you have the full DL then I dunno. Regards.

When you get an error message like this in a Ren'Py game, it's a good idea to search the thread for that exception to see if a solution has previously been posted.

Doing that for this exception will show that problems with the math101 images regularly crop up in the compressed versions and a fix is available:

I mean... that choice, considering Jill's attitude towards violence and bullies, its pretty obvious its going to bite you back in the ass if you're pursuing her.

hey there... my compressed version doesnt have the pathway as -> game\images\classes\math101 ... as stated in the link you mention... I am gonna try and download the uncompressed one and see if it works..
AND ALSO..... I had another problem..like I had played till 4 in an earlier version.. and yesterday when I started new game in my new download... i could still see my old saves there even if I have deleted the older version from my laptop..What could be that?

 

[biredai15]

This is what my exact problem is in the game and also i found the .txt version in my folder..

First you have to delete the old saves from the Being a dik folder and then delete from :
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\RenPy. In the renpy folder you will find being a dik saves folder, delete that as well and your game will no longer have old saves.
PS: You can individually delete certain saves but if you delete the whole folder, the game will restart i.e will no longer have anything you did in past will the game. In simple words, it will be like playing the game for the first time.

 

[The Pink Royce]

This is why you don't tell a guy who can't appreciate MILF boobs and call them saggy tits anything. I mean, yeah, Derek's cool and all, but really, would you trust a guy who you can't even trust with wearing a normal shirt with something personal? Sorry, Derek, but all you'll be getting is the 'fun guy' treatment. That Stanley titty in his mouth was deserved for him being a snitch. Sorry not sorry

[biredai15]

STATUS UPDATE EPISODE 08

I've been working on animations for the entire week.

I have many planned animations for episode 8, and creating them is one of my favorite things to do during development.

I will try to mix work up with other activities, but I will continue to animate for a while.

I promised you some numbers this week, so here's what's been produced so far.

83 animations and 332 static renders are completed.

I estimate the writing to be somewhere around 25-35% done.

Yesterday, a cosmetic poll for Maya started. Sign up as a +$10 patron to participate

Have a nice weekend
