VN Ren'Py Artemis [v0.6.2b] [digi.B]

[Craysser]

I would think all the " " would be a suitably sufficient clue, but it's all good.

valid point >.<

Paige.

 

[Maccabbee]

As much as I like Katy (I think I boffed her at the beginning of my first run through), I can't ever get her as a serious LI because all her competition is so much better to me. There's nothing wrong with her, she's cute, fun, funny, and mostly happy. But! Paige and Zelda are top tier. Naomi is a future partner, and a great buddy. Reina is fantastic. Junie is my lost love and best buddy. Kindra is just FATE, man!

How can anyone choose just one? Dammit, I wish this was a harem game!!! At least give me a throuple (Kindra-June) with a couple of fuckbuddies! The pain is real.

 

[Bryan_Colt]

Well Kindra and June are already with me all i need is Paige if the others get along it will be perfect, the highest love score i got is

with Paige.

I thought Vulvamort could be redeemed i guess not.

You can get a point with her and i'm pretty sure a redemption ark was considered.

She is pretty much universally hated though and there is no real comeback for what she's done so not sure that will happen anymore.

I think Kindra June, MC is possible at least that is my canon playthrough.
cayseron , all good but we were not being sarcastic or ironic (this time) we were bluntly silly
(note no emojis yes, I can be serious from time to time /s (sarcasm)

No, Digi already said that is not going to happen due to the "Vulvaphobie" break out in ch 2 (iirc)

 

[Craysser]

yeah thats not the issue. I read the sentence and my brain goes to argumentative mode before reading the room. as the other guy said "read the room", that is exactly what the issue is. i skip the room reading and go straight to debating

Hey everyone!

Weekly check-in time. Last week I mentioned parts being on backorder. I did find a shop that had them available and the quantity I needed. I immediately ordered and even though I paid for overnight delivery, I got lucky and they shipped it via the slowest method possible by mistake. Anyways fast forward to now and they'll be delivered today, and I'll be putting the server back together. I'm excited to get the ol' girl fired back up again and start doing fun holiday and one-off renders when time allows.

I mentioned the cooing sound Artemis makes during CH5 will be added in the next patch (0.6.2). There'll be a new volume setting in the config menu for voice. So if you wish to turn it off, you can mute it there.

I'm also bringing back the auto-save feature that occurs just before a chapter ends. It will take up slot 1 on page 99. You can still save during the "make a save now" screen, but this is more of a failsafe. This is something I'm building on and refining. But is the plan right now and as I go forward in development, things may change a bit. So the save menu will get a small facelift.

On the subject of saves, I'll also be working on splitting the books up. With the release of the last chapter, it's clear it's needed at this point with how big the chapters are getting. As a whole, next chapter will bring the whole thing a bit over 20GB in size. Splitting the exe's up into proper books (Book One Ch1-4, Book Two, Ch5-8, etc.) will be cleaner and of course easier to download. I'll be looking into coding the saves, so if you're on Book Two and load a Book One save, it won't error out. The way I've coded the game already, you shouldn't have to do anything special like save transfer or anything like that. Something we'll be testing out in the next beta phase though. In theory, you should be able to merge the books if you choose to. Something I'll also be testing to verify this.

Additionally, my NAS upgrades are complete. As my asset library and project as a whole grows, I needed more space. So I purchased a JBOD unit and more storage. I increased my snapshots from once a day to twice. Which means I have another option in case of a whoopsie with a scene file. I'm also cleaning up my DAZ database. I noticed I have a lot of stuff that I don't use. So, I'm off-loading them and doing a bit of re-organizing. When creating background characters. There were a lot of outfits I skipped over because they weren't great quality.

On top of all that, I've been organizing the events for this chapter and writing out scenes. I bought a whiteboard for my storyboards and just general scene organizing. I love tech as you can see above, but I can still be a bit analog. Sticky notes are my best friend.

With a final note for this log, once I get the render box back online. I'll also be fixing some of the lewd scenes. Specifically, Kindra's and June's. Reina's too. Just some tweaks. Kindra's camera movement was too quick, June's hair was a bit too glossy, and Reina's hair was very dark.

That wraps it up for last week! Weather is starting to warm up! Remember to hydrate!

Only Win and Mac were released. If there isn't a Linux version available then you can just use the Renpy SDK.

1) Download the

.
2) Download either the win or mac version of Artemis (doesn't matter which one. both will work)
3) Extract the Artemis folder into your Renpy SDK folder
4) Run renpy.sh from the SDK folder

At this point you have two choices. Either just use the SDK as a launcher to start Artemis, or use the Build Distributions option to build your own linux version. Both options work and your save backups are still in ~/.renpy as usual.

This should work in most cases regardless of whether you're on Windows, Mac, or Linux if the game you want isn't available for your platform.

Thanks, but I cannot make it work.
I suppose my version of Renpy is different from the one the creator used.
Can you please tell me what version it is?
I have tried the latest 8.3.7, throws error and I can't load saves, and 8.0.1 that doesn't start at all

Can you build for linux too please? thanks

It doesn't have to be the exact same renpy version that was used to build the game, but the major version matters. Like if a game was built with Renpy 6, it's recommended to use Renpy 6 to build a distribution. In this case this version of Artemis was built with Renpy 8.1.3 according to the vc_version.py file, so any Renpy 8 version following that should work. I can at least confirm that the latest version (8.3.7) did work for me as I've successfully launched and built distributions from both the windows and mac official builds. Though if you want to try 8.1.3, you can get it

I've build an actual Win/Linux distribution of Artemis v0.6.1b (using the steps I listed earlier) and sent to to the mods several days ago, but they haven't updated the OP and now I don't have the link any more. And with my shitty internet plan it took hours to upload it, so I really don't want to do it again. So the best I can recommend is just try again. Worse case scenario, there's always wine or proton.

Man,while space is important, JBOD is the absolute 2nd worst way to go about doing it if you're trying to protect against data loss. I hope he's not really that daft.

probably No.1 is RAID 0 but what's so bad about JBOD?

 

[Ilhares]

It's the same core problem, there's zero redundancy. If the drive your shit is on goes tits-up, that's complete data loss. That's fine for stuff that's not important, but if it's only being stored in one place, you're just asking for it.

If my media library drive blows up, while annoying, it's at least being mirrored to other locations (offsite), so I can still do a recovery if necessary. I miss my proper RAID5 array, though.

Just because a JBOD doesn't come with any sort of hardware redundancy doesn't mean it can't have some software one. It's the optimal hardware situation for some ZFS pool or something equivalent (unraid, etc). It comes with some benefits on top (no write-hole, volume and snapshot management, compression, deduplication, etc). You can totally use it to mirror your data across multiple disks, or / and mimic a raid5 array with a raidz1, or add more redundancy with a z2 (equivalent of a raid6) or even a z3 for up to 3 disk failures.

Check it out.

Most home JBOD devices don't offer that level of resiliency. RAID 6 or RAID 10 (hardware implemented) is still the best for performance and resiliency, but not great with SSDs, as it impacts their lifecycle negatively.

Fuck Cass! What a hoe

Yeah, Cuntsandra can go ride a cactus.

 

[Bootyman92]

I thought Vulvamort could be redeemed i guess not.

It would be pretty hard for her to do so.

Everything she's done, along with the way she treats people, makes her absolutely detestable. She's pretty much established how she'll fuck over anyone who doesn't dance to her tune without even a hint of remorse.

 

[rasyonel]

one of the best game here IMO
