VN Ren'Py A Dark Horse Riding [Ch. 3.0 Beta] [Turning Tricks]

[Turning Tricks]

Strange I had the slightly faded bathroom mirrior persist for quite a few screens.
But while ignoring it I didn't notice if it ever disapeared after that.
Just know that on mine at some point it turned into the faint image of a whisky bottle.
And then the update ended kinda like playing a game with a water mark in the images weired.
Just sayin.

This is the first I heard of that particular issue. Nobody else has mentioned it. I added it to my production notes though and when I circle around back to this later, I'll look into more.

well I wasn't sure I wasn't seeing things so heres what I see. Mirror where it should be.
And after that Mirror were it shouldn't be. and its constant from the bathroom onwards.
And this is the last one when its a mirror and it's really where it shouldn't be there ..

When Whisky takes over its the scene right before you see the whisky bottle on the sideboard where it should be.
See it's a mirror no more .
Glad I checked so at least I know it wasn't just me because I was drunk and stoned when playing it.

I think that's a ring for a hand towel.

Good catch .
You are right its not a mirror thats what someone else called it so I just went with it.
But you are right that is a towl holding ring.
However then again do's it really matter what it is?.
Because still apart from this one pic It really shouldn't be anywere ellse?
Just sayin.

Did you click on that ring (as well as on the bottle of rum in another scene)? These elements are clickable, and if you don't click on them, they may not be removed from the screen correctly (this is just a guess).
Also, please tell if you are using any mods or URM.
I think more details will help the developer find the problem.

That's the screen overlay for the easter egg. Odd, I never saw that in any of the testing I did and nobody else has reported it.

Did you by chance install that URM or some other mod? OR, is it on Android?

Nevermind, I found the bug. It's an easy fix and I already made a hotfix (PC only - sorry)

Just download this fix, put it in the main game directory (not the /game, but the one above that) and then extract the file. It will create a couple of folders and dump an .rpyc file in there that should fix this happening.

I'll be busy working on my other VN all weekend, so I will try and get a new build up for Android and Mac sometime after the long weekend.

Thx for the feedback!

The fix worked perfectly thank you for the speedy fix.
I also deleted the RenPy Persistant and loaded a save just before the Bathroom just to be safe.

Should work even with a save file, the rpyc file I put in the hotfix will load after everything else and it's just adding two lines of code (basically "hide screen easter_egg") after each scene (one for Kelly's scene and one for Lisa's) When you make minor changes to lines of code, Ren'py is pretty good at finding the spot where the save was and going from there. No variables were changed.

The mistake I made was I had that hide screen tied to the easter_eggs, so when you clicked them, it did 3 things... first it played the victory sound, then it hid the overlay and then it called a label to set the flag on the task. What I forgot to do was also put that hide screen line in the script in case you didn't find the egg and click on it. So the faint image button I used stayed on-screen. I still make these noob mistakes, from time to time, but I'm getting a lot faster at finding them! lol.

Are there any wrong choices or game over choices?

 

[Woodstock_1983]

What is the point of having a player choose a nickname if the game refuses to use it and choose one instead? I Never used Chipmunk as the the nickname, I used Nighthawk but it keeps calling the MC nickname Chipmunk. I decided to change the nickname to Chipmunk being the game refused to use the nickname I originally used.

Yes, there is sure one bad ending.

You know, MC have chipmunk tattoo, so its maybe unable to change it.

I understand that. What I'm getting at is why ask if the MC has a nickname if you can't change the nickname? If he already has a permanent nickname then just skip choosing a nickname at the beginning.

Well Mom would always call you chipmonk she had that tatto to remind her of her son.
But I wouldn't expect the family not to use chipmonk and not your chosen one.
because well family are like that they will call you what they like even if you don't.
So I just thought that the pick a Nickname thing was for the club member's to call him when they talk to the MC.
But then I liked chipmonk as a club nick... so I didn't change it sorry it means I can't confirm if that is the case.
And it was just the Dev giving you a choice for a club nickname for the club members to use or not?.
I am probably wrong but thats what I thought anyway.

 

[Woodstock_1983]

Yes, there is sure one bad ending.

What I meant was are there any bad consequences for perving on all the females we want to? Like can we flirt and perv on them as much as we want to?

 

[Woodstock_1983]

I don't mind games talking about how a female's butt looks but if this game has any anal scenes, I hope it's avoidable.

 

[Woodstock_1983]

Another thing, I wouldn't be surprised if the MC ( Main Character) has some kind of magic powers lol.

I messed it up. My mother has the tattoo.
I never change the characters' names, so I dont know. Maybe the gang members will call him by your nickname.

I didn't notice that it would have an effect. As far as I know, the only mistake is if you deflower daughter.

 

[Woodstock_1983]

I'm not going to say anything, I'm just going to let the pictures decide what is wrong here lol. Just wanted to say that i named the MC Zeus.

 

[Woodstock_1983]

I wish when Devs tries to speak in a different language, they put in () what they are saying. I had to stop plying and try to use Google translate just to understand what is being said.
