Ren'Py A Town Uncovered [v0.53a Alpha] [GeeSeki]

[kira07]

It would be helpful if you coud provide the traceback to see what the error is.
By any chance are you using an old save?

No, i ve seen this game for my first time in this week, i started a new game but i could have never enter the principal room

Not here to call you a liar or anything. But the error itself is plenty evidence that you're using an old save.
Or you found a really weird combination of events that summoned a bug unpached from versions ago.

Mainly because the code calls the principal "miss lashley" instead of "principal lashley" as it does nowadays.

ADDENDUM:

NOW I SEE IT.

The game says Alpha 0.24b. Either you're using an old version (Current is 0.26a)
OR, you used the incest patch.
Which is really old and unnecesary to be honest.
Now at the start you can just set the relationships to Sister and Mother manually, not without a disclaimer by the devs.

And by ignoring the problems the wound or issues plaguing the game are allowed to fester.

Gee is lazy. You're never gonna criticize that away. He's a lousy programmer and shitty artist. You can't criticize that away either. Thing is, he keeps going. And no matter what any of us think, or believe to know better, as long as he's doing that, it has to be better than him turning into a ghost and giving people nothing to talk about.

If his patrons have issues, he should listen to them, but people who do nothing but complain without giving money, why bother. It's probably just an amplified version of what his customers are saying anyways.

I have used incest patch, can you send me ur archive.rpa without re downloading the game?

And no matter what any of us think, or believe to know better, as long as he's doing that, it has to be better than him turning into a ghost and giving people nothing to talk about.

Well, some people clearly know better, someone made a patch to fix his game for him. Lol. No one wants him to stop working on the game either, you're such a defensive person, people critique something because they want it to improve, because they see potential and it can be met. Yeah he keeps going but that doesn't mean anything when he's clearly making less progress every update and instead of content there's more bugs each time. People want him to improve, that's why they criticise. They don't want him dead. You've gone through this a million times, when will you learn? You keep coming back to say the same thing and people like me are gonna give you the same responses, you know why? Because when you keep making the same flawed arguments people will destroy them again with the same arguments they used before.

You've gone through this "people who don't pay don't have a right to complain" argument too. How many people do you know here for sure aren't supporting him? Are you supporting him? Do you know if I am? If CursedFlame is? No, you don't, you're just making the assumption that people on this forum just hate Patreon devs or artists and never support them, they just come here to complain. You're incredibly shallow and stubborn, sticking to this narrative which is the only one where you would have higher moral ground and that's all you can stand on, because you have no objective arguments to put out. Just because someone isn't supporting him doesn't mean they don't have a right to give feedback either. The game is free, it's always been free. Are you saying Geseeki is only doing this for money? IS that what you're implying that he's a greedy asshole? That's pretty rude. If he only listens to feedback from people paying him then the people paying him aren't giving him very good feedback.

Stop it, get some help. You keep bringing the same things up every time you show up. It's lame, it's old, and it's indefensible. At this point you're worse than the people that actually want the project to fail, and those are very few. You're a broken record.

I have used incest patch, can you send me ur archive.rpa without re downloading the game?

Haha, how convenient.
Just look up a few posts.
Or click HERE if you prefer.

 

[Darrel Caper]

Changelog is rather vague. What are these added scenes that are mentioned for mom and sister? Can't seem to trigger them.

 

[Tactlessgent]

Noticed there isn't an android v0.26a yet.Can a kind soul familiar with python/java and with porting help us android users out?

 

[Metropolisz]

holy shit this game aged like warm milk, just checked this game after they fucked it up back in around April makes me feel better not to stick around after that.

 

[roger545353535353]

Anyone have all the pictures of sex scenes? It's pretty dumb this game doesn't have replays.

 

[Alexander00131]

I have a crash when i want to enter the Principal Office

It would be helpful if you provide the traceback.

But maybe it's the same error that kira07 got a few posts ago.


Anyways, their problem was that they were using the incest patch, which is completely obsolete and you shouldn't use.
You can set the relationships manually to Sister and Mother.

Quickest way to fix is to download my 'archive.rpa' file and replacing it on your game.
The download was on this post

 

[MonkeyFunk]

I was using the official version, but now I'm stuck on sex world. I can't seem to progress and I just get errors for the gym and cafeteria.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

[amiable34]

Hey lads, remember a few days ago I said that I would try to make an unofficial patch?

Here it is. After learning how RenPy works I was able to rebuild the project with my fixes implemented.

So, what did I fix?

• Fixed Meghan bathroom scene not appearing when it should
• Fixed Jane's anal missionary crash
• Fixed map icon dissapearing after talking to principal about kidnappings
• Fixed parent's bedroom movie scene with mom and Jane
• Fixed Hitomi's scene jumping to Mom's scene for no reason

Spoiler: A little bit more detailed explanation of fixes

Sorry for not responding earlier. If you are where i think you are. Check the bathroom.

i checked bathroom , no one there.shes deffinetly lying in bed on the fathers side of the bed.still cant go to sleep till i find mom and i have found her?

 

[Detective Cancer]

What more can be said about a town uncovered? I guess I wish there was more "town" to uncover. There's a sweet story about resolve in the face of abuse here for those who are uninitiated, but after the story's over there's not much more to do. Can I go to the bank? Can I cut my hair? Can I hang out at the mall? Can I drop presents off at the post office? Can I get telemarketing phonecalls? Can I date other new women? Seems kind of sad to just leave. If this were ever released as a game...I would encourage DLC.

What? DLC? The game's not even finished yet, hell it hasn't even started as far as I'm concerned.
None of the character stories are done either, I'm struggling to believe you played any of it to be honest.

Ahh shit, my bad.
Didn't ask after what you had to find mom.

Anyways this time she should be at the park.

I was using the official version, but now I'm stuck on sex world. I can't seem to progress and I just get errors for the gym and cafeteria.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
Exception: Imagebutton does not have a idle image. (auto=u'btn schoolgym_daysexworld_door_%s').

    raise Exception("Imagebutton does not have a %s image. (auto=%r)." % (name, auto))

Yeah, the code is trying to call assets that don't exist.
You don't really need to go to those places to progress the story tho.
Just go every other place and talk to as much people as you can.

Out of topic but i just wanted to say snow fits perfectly to your profile pic.

 

[Detective Cancer]

Everybody's lonely Demon. Everyone will remain lonely Demon. If you're not lonely you're fooling yourself, you haven't had enough experience in avoiding bad company. Humans are problems that don't have the hindsight of their entire lives to make rulings of value upon, nor the wisdom of the afterlife. Boredom and money is a sometimes cyclical stream. Strive for peace and not rust.

You're probably gonna get modded again for being off-topic.

I guess I'll drag this back to being on-topic.. This game has had potential but the writing is ass, the art is passable at best, and Geeseeki's gotten so lazy he's just letting you purchase relationship points now. Not only that but as discussed before he turned Hitomi the shy character with some personality that people were hoping would be developed further into just a generic hentai game slut you can rape in public at the beach. I dunno where this game is going now, and I'm only sticking around to watch it keep rolling through these bad decisions. Every update breaks every past update, there seems to be LESS content as time goes on and he removes bits here and there, he fundamentally changed the dynamic between you and Hitomi and erased the stakes the Allaway route had instead of using the options he gives you to make a more organic resolution, and even then the bad guy gets away with it. Jane(sister) is a giant baby, yeah their dad's abusive but he hasn't been that way forever and both her and the MC are grown-ass adults, hell she works testing dildos and diddling herself on the internet. It makes no sense she'd have any kind of a breakdown of that level for a few boxes being torn down, he's allowed back in the house anyway and it's business as usual. Yay consistent writing? The mom character, [consistent good writing intensifies] whatever her name is in the non-incest default version, is a manipulative baby, she's worse than Jane and she blames you for everything, expects you to just deal with her shit, and the writing follows that mentality suit, having you calling yourself an "animal that likes too many women" despite only having been with one, who was a girl your age, from class, and basically forced herself on you. This game has no clear direction, it's completely inconsistent, grindy, obtuse as fuck and at this point I'm only playing it because I want to see how much worse it can get as time goes by. I simply don't see the depth in it that you see, the characters with maybe the exception of Allaway who is an idiot in her own right, are all unlikeable, especially the MC and "Mom" but you're using fresh eyes so I can't blame ya. Maybe in 6 months when it's completely unplayable you'll change your mind.

And I disagree. I like the art quite a bit better than the generic Daz3d stills and models. I don't see Hitomi like that at all. I feel that there is a hidden convention sometimes in games that things must be a certain way. I support the dev's trying to distinguish itself from the pack, it's a question of "Do you want a Star Wars rehash" or "Do you want a JJ Abrams ruined Star Wars movie"? Bland or awful? I will go for the second every time, because I've already seen the first one! Dev is also, clearly, trying not to alienate the fanbase, but the fact that you care, and that you continue to care enough to keep posting on boards much later, shows the nerve dev has been able to strike with you, whether you care to admit it or not.

1/ "Daz3D is worse" is not a valid argument. Not only is that subjective but if your baseline for defending a bad thing is that something else exists that's worse then you have it all wrong. In fact, let's go with your logic right? Stick figures are worse, yeah? Well, you get sketches in this when the game reaches a certain point because Geseeki's lazy. Yay, sketches and placeholder text are better than 3d renders right? Right. After 3 years? Yeah okay. You're right.

2/ What's the dev doing to distinguish himself? He had an unique character and turned her into a generic slut, he had a plot thread with stakes and made it into slush without a narratively satisfying ending. What's your point here? You could blend every female in this game now and what you'd get out is nothing new because they're all the same person, and that's the same person that's in every other lazily written hentai VN out there. It's incredibly tropey and it adds to my next point actually, because it's so generic that it may as well have been made by Disney.

3/ "Do you want a rehash or a rehash with lens flare?" What is your argument? JJ Abrams did nothing new. If anything the backwards-ass The Last Jedi was more innovative, and the newest movie is such a garbage train that it's only made 8 million in China since the last time I checked, CHINA. The Force Awakens was just a rehash of Episode 4, TLJ was a schizophrenic mess, and The Rise of Skywalker was basically Episode 6 but while also trying to compensate for 8's insanity. This is irrelevant though comparative arguments don't work here, especially when you're arguing such different things, different contexts, and in the end it's all demonstrably wrong. This game does nothing new but set an even lower bar for Patreon developers to sink to and still make money.

4/ Watching a trainwreck is interesting. Morbid curiosity is a thing, same reason I went to watch the new Star Wars. It's so bad I'm curious about it. Even then it made very little money because even the fanatics of the franchise hate it. I don't know what you're trying to say here. I'm a member of this forum, I can post here if I feel like it. Anyone can, this doesn't add anything to the conversation, what are you trying to prove? That I can post here? Yeah. Here I am, I'll admit I do use a public forum, and more specifically a thread dedicated to a game I thought would be good and isn't, after 3 years. Saying Geseeki's managed to strike a nerve with me is such a lame way to argue. Please provide evidence for this and your other unsubstantiated assertions and we'll talk again.

I prefer stick figures over 3d renders (well actually I prefer people try...my upcoming game Sarcastica uses handmade puppets) as 3d renders look like everyone else's 3d renders. The amount of time is no importance. There is inspiration and perspiration. Sometimes perspiration doesn't get you where you want it to be and you have to let go and wait.
You just said yourself that dev had already made a unique character. So. That means dev can do it. A friend of mine once told me he hated all the hipsters that hang around here. I told him the same thing I'm telling you. Find your inner hipster.

This is complete nonsense, you addressed nothing of what I said and dismissed me entirely with some uncreative quip.
Yes, he made an interesting character but she was by no means unique, she was only unique among the already uninteresting cast.
Yes, he can do better, but he hasn't been for the past 2-3 years, what is the point of even mentioning that?
How am I a hipster for having factual, objective criticisms on a game?
Do you even realise how incredibly vapid your entire side of this exchange has been?
You've also not answered any of my questions, you deferred to some person who doesn't matter and called me a hipster.
By all means, please try to support at least ONE of the allegations and assertions you've made thus far. Give it a shot, I even listed them neatly for you to try and tackle one by one but here we are again.
