Oh well, i guess i just have to redownload the game
I don't know if this is the case, but if you happen to have anything from an extended character set (like an en dash [–] or em dash [—]) those can sometimes get rejected by Ren'Py and Python. I don't know in what language the updater is written, but I'd make sure nowhere in the folder path has those (all the way from the drive letter to the folder of the game), as they could pose a problem. Again, I'm not an expert, but I know they have caused problems in the past for me and others.Oh well, i guess i just have to redownload the game
Doesn't even need to be extended; a standard ASCII colon in the path causes Ren'Py to shit itself.I don't know if this is the case, but if you happen to have anything from an extended character set (like an en dash [–] or em dash [—]) those can sometimes get rejected by Ren'Py and Python.

Well, it might not be true for other OSes, but in Windows a colon isn't allowed, either. It's one of Windows' prohibited characters for a file or folder, only used after a drive letter. So it actually shouldn't be allowed, given Ren'Py tries to work with multiple systems. But I get what you're saying; it's definitely too restrictive.Doesn't even need to be extended; a standard ASCII colon in the path causes Ren'Py to shit itself.

His problem is with update, which means he already have the game correctly installed, thus the path should be correct without colon or something. However, not all programs are designed with all the languages in the path, so although windows itself support it, the program does not.Doesn't even need to be extended; a standard ASCII colon in the path causes Ren'Py to shit itself.
It's not a prohibited character on other OSes though, and since Renpy is multiplatform it should be able to handle paths that are legal on any system.Well, it might not be true for other OSes, but in Windows a colon isn't allowed, either.

I believe this is a problem with Python (upon which Ren'Py is based), not Ren'Py itself. I disagree that characters prohibited by one OS should be allowed by Python because those are allowed in another OS. Those are commonly used as path delimiters, and apparently Python can't escape them.

All I can say is that you've grossly misinterpreted that answer.I believe this is a problem with Python (upon which Ren'Py is based), not Ren'Py itself.

I suppose it might be possible to do what the answer suggests, but I'm not versed enough in update executables like this to know whether that would be a thing.
Pretty sure I didn't, but w/e. I don't care to discuss this anymore. I will continue to disagree that symbols should be fully supported by Ren'Py just b/c some OSes allow them. So, agree to disagree.All I can say is that you've grossly misinterpreted that answer.
It's absolutely one I always look forward to playing when a new release comes out. Zanith is a very good storyteller and artist.I'm addicted to this game swear on god bruh.
Yeap, I constantly check this thread to hopefully see it updated, lmao. Zanith is really one of a kind. Which just makes the wait more painful tbh .It's absolutely one I always look forward to playing when a new release comes out. Zanith is a very good storyteller and artist.
This house has there rooms but sister and mom doesn't appear.decided to start this game from 0 since I dont remember shit but the MC mentions his sisters and mom? but Im right assuming they won be in the game right? and taking advance of the pink gal just give me more scenes right?
