I want to see the plot advance, more unique events with the girls, and know more about the older characters in the game, specially Rae. She was the first (and best, IMO) girl, and she has been forgotten for way too long.
Those events that you talk about are, in the best case scenario, baby steps for the advance of the plot. Or even filling material, like the one of the birdcage, some of the ones of Naomi in her world, just going around and arguing with an old man, or Lyriel just talking with her friends about magazines. Something new and important should happen soon in the plot of this game.
Rae's story push is next on the menu, and the overall story will pick up within a few months.
Love the update, but I have doubts about the music choice for THAT scene
Oh... Yeah... Music...
Ohh I really like the new Lyriel thumbnail! Does she wear that costume in game or is planned to be? I haven’t got to play for a couple of versions
She is wearing it in the Bunny Lounge.
Update Patch is asking for a password
It definitely shouldn't, please redownload it.
I don't know why, but I've been getting fairly poor performance sometimes, it's intermittent rather than constant but from time to time it freezes for a second when trying to open a menu or quit the game. Doesn't seem to happen when going through scenes, just menus. Not just like the in-game menus like the phone, but also the save and load menus, which is weird because I wouldn't have thought that those were likely to have been changed much from stock Renpy.
Yeah, there is an issue, and it's way too random to reproduce. It could be the new gallery persistence code, it merges and re-saves everything from time to time and could be causing slowdowns on autosaves and the like. I'll disable some parts of it for 0.5.10 and we'll see if the issue goes away.
I don't know if it's a big enough deal to do anything about, but when playing this update I talked to Cait at the pool in the afternoon then immediately she was in in her normal clothes to ask about visiting her home, it was a little odd her going from her bikini to her normal clothes in one transition. Maybe it would be worth tweaking that system a little so it would only trigger on changing room, not changing time? That would make it less jarring, I think, since there would be a short period where she isn't on the screen. The same would apply to any of the other girls when they approach us to talk to us too.
The in-game menus like the phone and inventory are semantically menus, I think. Probably a good idea to bind the 'gamemenu' key to close/back within them.
The clothing is controlled by a schedule manager, and the schedule system is a big mess by now. I have a workaround planned for the issue you mentioned, though. I'll be adding an additional "walk around" requirement to triggers like this one, when someone approaches you. This way the talks won't ever start right after the time advance.
I don't understand the update patch I've tried 2 times on 2 different versions it says it completed and updated to the newest version but when I load the game its still the old one and the update program says its been updated so I can't re do it
What's the entry in the register ? I'll edit it to install the 5.8 to 5.9 patch
OK it worked but it doesn't seem to have patched my version, still showing v0.5.8r1 an can't trigger new events (end of content in side quests of the girls)
Send help this is driving me nuts. I've tried running as admin and putting it (and the game) in various folders and none of the attempts work.
Unfortunately, the patching process is very unstable. The patches themselves are made with a generic binary patching solution, so any modification of the game might break it. If you are using any mod (gallery unlocker etc) or otherwise modified the game files in any way, the patch is likely to fail. I can't really do anything about it, so just redownload the full game, please.
the library and skip to a point where the characters are inside leaving and then entering won't trigger the event...
Yeah, this particular event is a bit finicky, maybe I should change the requirements. The thing is, you are supposed to walk in on Lyri doing some stuff, and it kinda feels weird when this event start when you are already in the library.
