VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [DrPinkCake]

[Lightaces]

So the last round of the tournament is over. But for now I'm not gonna declare the results yet. I said I had a plan for the tampering election fraud justice for the slap incident, and I'm working on it. In the meanwhile vote for these matches...or don't and I just make Rio the champion

Quinn and Sage. Pretty obvious, if you ask me.

 

[360 Danny DeVitos Later]

Correct about the video, it's only if you show it that it gets leaked to Burke.

Many guess Nick is a traitor.

If there is a DIK traitor Nick is so obvious you'd think he has to be a red herring. Someone turning traitor should be a surprise where as most of the fanbase has probably heard that theory by now because of how the game hints something is up with him. If it is him it'll have little impact. I have a feeling at some point if the DIKs think they have a traitor Nick will be the scapegoat and whoever is pointing the finger at him the hardest is probably the traitor. I don't see why he'd be so obvious unless he's going to be a scapegoat in the story at some point.

Was pretty brazen putting this in the last episode only to go and do it.

I agree that Nick is most likely not the traitor (if there is one), but that begs the question of how Burke got a hold of the video, because it's either that Quinn is somehow connected to it, in which case she must be the blackmailer, or Burke has connections to other people (my guess is Vinny in such a case).

This also begs the question if Vinny actually opened the safe or not, and I think he did, I've gone back and listened to the sound effect of when he opens the safe (or at least tries to), and it's not the *clunk* sound I first thought it was, its more like a *click* sound, as though it was opened successfully, and Vinny couldn't do that without knowing the new safe combination, which means that he's the one behind the cameras, and I also fail to see what Quinn would gain from leaking all the photos of the DIKs fucking Arieth to Dawe, Vinny yet again makes more sense since he's someone who has a motive in simple revenge at the least.

And this would also explain why Nick's room is left untouched when the mansion gets destroyed, even if Nick isn't a traitor it is stated several times early on that he still meets with Vinny from time to time, so they're still close, and since Vinny likes Nick he would makes sure to leave Nick's room untouched while the rest of the mansion gets smashed, but I doubt Vinny would be able to smash the entire mansion by himself, it would be exhausting, and how would he recover the dildos that were used to wreck the Alpha's house, unless he was there when the DIK's threw them, and that might also explain why Dawe cancelled his orders from Quinn, if Vinny provided him with a better deal he'd give incentive to the Alphas to trust him, while also tossing a wrench in the gears of his competition for the drug market.

there is a rat among the DIKs? any idea of who?

My guess? Jacob.
Jacob spending his DIK code to protect the MC is the perfect alibi. Who would suspect Jacob after he saved either the MC's or Derek's ass for sleeping with a teacher? No one.

My suspicion started when he was the only one worried about the MC wanting to fuck Sage in front of everyone. Does he have ties to Stephen Burke? When the MC questions Jacob about the existence of a possible traitor among the DIK's, Jacob adopts an extremely defensive posture, stating that he "prefers not to point fingers".

I'm saying, there's something wrong with Jacob.

wait... Cathy´s incident is before the video reach the DIK´s, i think Rusty started to tighteng up the security after the incident with Cathy, no? i think Cathy´s incident is chapter 4? while the DIKs learn about the video in chapter 5? or was it chapter 3 and 4? anyway . I also though that Viny´s scene of him trying to open up the safe, was to proof that Rusty did upgrade the security, we dont see if he fail or not but... doesnt he tell MC that the only one knowing the combination of the safe will be him and Tommy and MC?

Q&A Session - 2023 - Part 2/2

Q&A Session - 2023 - Part 1/2 - Previous Q&A Session

my bad it was sneaky posted before by A360
but maybe you prefer my formatting

Some new developers whot has never completed one VN and are always complaining about funds, reworking their uncompleted games with 3 episodes of 15mins long gameplay, should read the last replies of this Q&A, specially the parts where DPC talks about funds.

Some developers and players think that "people" should go to patreon and fund these devs that never completed a VN, has no reputation or reliability. And most of them think that if DPC gets all this support to release uppdates, they should be getting the same kind of support as well, but as DPC said, He had to work twice harder to be able to fund his first VN.

If you are a new developer, don't expect people to fund your work for you, because none of us are your mom or dad. Specially if you have no finished VN and is always reworking something that we will never see the end. And if you are a player, don't spend money on people that has no reputation or are reliable about their project. You aren't doing any good to this market if you do that unless you enjoy getting scammed. At the end of the day, they will just tell you that you donated at your free will.

I do think we should pay to play their completed games/VNs or if they already have a reputation, you should support them (if you can) after knowing the quality of their work, that they are serious about it and respect you as a customer/player.

I'm quite sure lots of great beloved games wouldn't even exist if everyone did exactly what you said.

There is always a first VN for any VN developer, and if you have to dedicate time you have to earn some money to be able to don't need another job.

It's one thing to try not supporting a developer that is clearly fucking around all the time, but there're also serious people doing things for the first time that need to have the support at the moment or the final game would never exist.

DPC started Acting Lessons in 05/2018, ended in 08/2019 (I'm guiding by the dates of thread creation and release date, so maybe the last one could be a bit later considering it would include bugfixes and things like that), before ending it there was already a Patreon (there's someone saying he already supported it there in 05/2018, when there was only the first episode available). With zero support probably AL wouldn't have been finished and BADIK wouldn't exist.

Shit you're right, got my timeline mixed up, and yes Rusty states that only he, MC, and Tommy know the new safe combination, but if there's a camera (with a microphone I guess) in Rusty's room he'd still know what the new combination is, since Rusty has MC repeat it to him.

I think there is a camera in Rusty's room btw, I posted this just earlier in the thread:

I think I figured out where the camera in Rusty's room is located:

It's the same kind of light as in Derek's room:

Wait, when does MC ask Jacob about there being a traitor among them?

FROM EP.04

MC "Hey, about that Rooster post. What the fuck was that?"
Jacob "It's bad, dude. Rusty has a laptop in his room, which he likely left while being logged in."
Jacob "Someone at this party must have stolen it and posted that cluck, trying to frame us."
Jacob "Unless Rusty can smooth things over with Cathy on Monday, it looks like it was successful."
MC "Who do you think did this?"
Jacob "I don't point fingers. Nothing good comes from that."
Jacob "All I know is that it wasn't a DIK."
MC "Are you that sure about it?"
Jacob "Family comes first."
Jacob "Keep your eyes and ears open."

i hope there's some gimp suits for some of the hots and PR girls cuz man would sandy and quinn would pull it off, and not j full body but assless ones as well

 

[captcha69]

wait, but that would mean that "in ur face!" Vinny, the same guy who enter the mansion and flash u a gun cause he want, is also a sneaky son of bitch that is installing mini cameras and audio devices in the mansion? well if Nick is the rat it would make sense, and i guess Nick and Vinny were friends so maybe Nick staying in the DIK mansion was Vinny´s plan all along...but that is some game of throne shit right there, Vinny doesnt sound like a mastermind, unless the mastermind is Nick... but cameras and microphones, doesnt that sounds more like Burke? maybe the one installing cameras and microphones inside the campus is Burke, i mean he will have the coin for it, and the motivation, he is a control freak after all, i duno, but why would he send the pictures of Arieth and the DIK´s to the joks dou, cause u can see that one of the hidden cameras took the photo of Arieth and Jacob inside what is now Derek´s room, i mean "dumb dumb" point at it, right? what´s his name?... doesnt matter, "the photos look like selfies" is what he say, exept for Jacob´s.

In episode 6, one more time Jacob takes a defensive posture:

Rusty "I told her I was sorry and how I wished it could have been undone."
Rusty "And then I told her I accepted full blame for it."
Tommy "Wait! You what!?"
Tommy "Full blame!? Are you stupid!?"
Rusty "Dude, I had to. It's my computer. I'm the president."
Rusty "I have to own up to my mistakes."
Tommy "But you didn't post that shit! None of us did!"
Tommy "Right!? This is the time to speak up about this or I swear to fucking God I will kill the DIK who did it!"
Jacob "Fucking stop it! No DIK did this."
Jacob "Trust your brothers like they trust you."

[BigBlundino]

Hey guys, got a question. I put the S1andS2 persistent file and start of episode 7 files (where I want to start playing froom) into my BaD folder>game>saves. The saves are there but none of the photos or scenes are unlocked. I tried putting them directly into the renpy game BaD folder, didn't work either. Do I have to go through the entire game to get the scenes again? All of this in on the 0.8.3 version btw.

 

[BigBlundino]

Got it working, thanks

Persistent tracks acheevies
Pics
Scenes
Etc
Things that go bigger than one save or play path
Or at least it should, uncertain why yours is bugged.
There is a mod to unlock all if you say "fukk it"

The dialogue read versus unread is tagged elsewhere so it does not know what to skip

You can put it on "skip unread" and it will skip anything.
If dialogue scenes was what you meant.

Got it working thanks

I'm closing the voting now. I usually do it with the results. But I'll make a bigger post this time, and recounting votes (and might have to step away for work ). And I don't want to be like half way done with the post then a vote comes in that upsets the whole ranking and I have to start again

I'll post the result of the tournament in a few hours.

 

[ChipLecsap]

since it was falsely deleted for Trolling I will say it again.
MY opinion about Mr DPC recent Q/A session, is that: If We would have no evidence of his Simps existence, I would have Assumed he wrote those Question by himself just to shine his own EGO.

I leave out the laughing emoji, just to makes sure and understandable for "certain rulers" That I don't mean it for Trolling
