Yeah, I imagined it would be biased, but thought it was worth it even still. Decided to try Sancho's and been having a blast.

Scrappy's usually put you on one path (I imagine at least two with this game?), with little explanation. Sancho gives you full knowledge of what decisions you're making and what happens when you make them (as far as has been developed at least). I like the comprehensive look I get with SanchoMods, but if you just want to be told what to do, they may not be for you.

With VNs like BaDIK and Broken Dreamers I tend to use walkthrough mods alongside pdf walkthroughts as I play them, so think it won't be problem. Also, I have used Sancho mods in other games in the past, would've used in BaDIK but surprisingly I only found out Sancho also did a mod for this game recently.

Same here, usually I have the tendency to use any tool I have for my games (mods/pdfWT), basically because I'm a perfectionist and I dislike to use too many saves/playthroughs to see all/almost all content, if I can I make only 1 playthrough (not possible with BaDIK if want to see all content but mods help) from start to end and much later I might revisit the game and do again from start to finish. Sancho mods are awesome in that aspect, besides that Sancho (almost?) always have a tool, the save fixer in every game mod, in case I don't want to use the mod (doubt it happen) or in case Sancho delays a bit an update of a mod and I still want to play the update of the game.
Same as you, I didn't knew until February(?) this year that Sancho had a mod for this and Eternum, just playing updates of other games I also play and then I will play both games with the epic Sancho mods hehe
Hi,
I'm somewhat new to this. I'm receiving this error when launching the season 1-2 version of the game with mod installed. I'm using the Windows version of the game through Ren'Py launcher on an M1 Mac. The season 3 version of the game launches just fine with the mod installed. Any help what this means?
Thanks

A few things here so I can answer:
That traceback says you are running RenPy v8.2.1
Neither Season is on that version. Both S1 and S2 run on v7.4.10, so what have you done?
That is the newest version of RenPy from their download page. I use that launcher to load Windows RenPy games on my Macbook. I am newish to this so if there's a better way I'm not aware. I used a Parallels Windows VM for a while but performance isn't the greatest.
Should I just find an older version of RenPy to see if that fixes it?

I would highly suggest you ALWAYS run on the RenPy version any specific VN is based on... it's damn near vital due to how RenPy works at it's core. Try this for me please:
- Go to the RenPy site and at that DL page you reference find "complete list of releases" at the very bottom of that page and click on it.
- Find Rv7.4.10 (it's # 138) and DL that.
- Use that version of RenPy and test again.
Thank you! That did indeed fix it. For the future what's the easiest way to tell what version the game is on?
Thanks for all your awesome work?

It's simple but is more than one step so it'll be exactly this way:
- After you DL and install a new Win-based VN on your Mac you MUST run the VN once and then quit. Do this however you wish but if you already have a virtual machine instance started then you likely know the most convenient way to do this. This MUST be done without assuming a RenPy Launcher... find another way. (otherwise you will get false info in the file generated in step 2)
- Once you perform step 1 above (remember to only start the VN then EXIT), view the VN's folder/directory. Inside you will find a new file called exactly "log.txt". Open that in a text viewer of your choice and it will tell you the version that was initiated, usually the third line of the text file.

Enjoy. You stumbled upon one of the best mods on the planet and the only one that customizes it's walkthrough in realtime according to your current playthrough (it's fully dynamic). It should serve you well. If not, feel free to ping me and I'll assist the best I can.
Regards.

Decided to star over and forgot I nuked my my being a dik folder so now whwn I try to get s1/2 there is no up to date one that is compressed and bandwidth friendly rn

Sure there is bud.
Compressed S1/S2: here
Compressed S3: here
Both done via Techstar (S1/S2 v0.8.2) and/or SonsOfLiberty (S2 patch v0.8.3/S3 v0.10.1)
You're not going to get any more "bandwidth friendly" than those (and both are compressed by experienced, well-trusted buds of mine personally). I use them and I have some of the worst bandwidth conceivable when I'm at my cabin studio (which is deep in the forest, almost off the grid).
Full disclosure: I originally updated S1/S2 v0.8.3 by using Techstar's v0.8.2 compressed and adding the full retail patch which was first offered here back in 2022. SonsOfLiberty just recently did y'all a solid by compressing that "patch" for v0.8.3

In the OP there is a save fixer (in between the Installation and Change-Log information) to fix the modded saves so it works unmodded, open the spoiler bellow where says "Save Fixer", there is instructions there and the link to download the file.

Ready to do playthrough(s) with the epic Sancho mod as promised since I discover that Sancho has one 3 months ago hehe (should be in the OP in every game Sancho have a mod btw it is annoying that it doesn't all the good mod options, saw before Walkthrough1 2 and 3, why they don't do the same for multi-mods? 
).
First one of course will be Josy (my favorite char)+Maya (I like Maya but Josy still my number 1). Second will be Isabella because she is the most sensual and more experienced LI in the game and no doubt for me that she is the hottest in BaDIK. In my playthroughs with scrappy mod I also made a separate playthroughs save(s) for Sage Jill and Others, maybe I'll do it too and when done all thru version 0.10.1 probably will delete all the scrappy mod saves, just taking space and some of them gave me troubles to load before anyway. A problem I rarely/never had with any of Sancho or LightmanP mods.
Sancho1969 do you have any advice on how to do the different save paths, I really don't like to load a deep save where I enter a path (usually the saves I keep and name them and don't overwrite) so I don't enter it and then skip all way thru but with all the free roams and minigames in the way that were already done probably will be a struggle and very boring to repeat lol or those VarCheats in the cheat menu will do the job/trick?
After BaDIK I will do the same for Eternum (LightmanP mod I used there is also very good though so I'll keep the saves), I blame whoever decides not to put Sancho mods links in the games OP lmao anyway It is a good excuse to revisit a game I love that I already played.

It’s because you used that other mod. I’m in a power outage right now so you’ll have to help yourself. There’s a fix somewhere in this thread. Use the search bar for “mod_gr”. I can barely type on this damn phone.Hello Sancho1969 , i hope u can help me out.

Edit: Got power back finally. See the post I made here to fix that issue you have from that other mod you used in the past.
