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

[paulphoenix]

Well, i don't fully understand what you ask, but there is a Carmilla special render in episode 4, that you can only get if you are on the Bella path.
and yes, if you mess up a mini game, and don't get the reward you have to do it again.
truth is I don't really remember what reward is for what mini game. There is the official guide here for every episode, you can check where are the reward and what you have to do for them

i am on sage path, in the official walktrough pdf for episode 4 page 97, it is said

Click on the beer cooler next to her bed to play a mini-game. Playing the mini-game counts towards drinking beer and can give you a special render if you complete it without failing.

so even if take an old save befor the beer cooler in sage room event, and restart the mini game, it does not unlock it.

i am almost a the end of episode 4 and these two do not unlock.

Looks like I'm one of the few people who likes Maya's new hairstyle. But it's definitely better than the previous low-poly and poorly detailed haystack that was probably created in the early days of Genesis 3.

It is far from being as bad as people make out to be. Her mostly original haircut is still the best.

Compared to Lily and Josy, you can see how outdated that hairstyle is. It's just time to replace it with something new.
Visually, it doesn't seem terrible, just outdated.

Okay, well, I never encountered this before, so I can't help. if reloading and doing it again does not help, then I don't know what to say.
are you using some kind of mod, or cheat or something? , that may can cause some issue, I don't know. What I know is DPC won't answer to you because he no longer visit this place

 

[Pax Draconis]

I'm pretty sure he does know. Or at least suspects. It's not rocket science.

Actually, it is a huge leap of logic to that. Tremolo doesn't have the same context that the player has. All he's seen is Mona storming out of that room followed by Cammy and an insulted Burke. If you're on a full CHIK path that would be all that he sees. There may be a little more context as full DIK since you know that Cammy is a prostitute and Mona is her best friend, but you've had no contact with Mona other than the underwear quest and her drunk at a DIK party and in class. You may also know that Burke is cheating on Jade from her conversations if you've chosen to get into the Jade relationship. No one knows that Mona lost her scholarship except maybe Quinn and Quinn doen't care. Player knowledge does not equal character knowledge. I can't personally play guitar nor would I be able to do what passes for mathematics in that universe based on those tests. (Seriously, it's not algebra, trig nor calculus. It's fucking pattern recognition. Good luck being an engineer.)

Jill going on those three dates doesn't solve anything, Tybalt could still press charges on the MC at anytime.
She should have told Tybalt that she would have gotten her lawyer involved if anyone pressed charges on the MC.
Jill does that for Maya who's a complete stranger yet for some reason doesn't do it for the MC.

Pretty much sums up Jill's handling of the hole ordeal.

I'm not sure, outdated is a right word and this statement even true at all.
Josy has the base Josy hairstyle, it's not even the Mature Josy version. and Lily only have one hairstyle, she probably would look weird in anything else other then the pigtails

Dude, that's Farrah Fawcett's hairstyle from the 1970s. That uneven layered blow-out bullshit is ugly.
Farrah's hair at leas had some bounce to it. Maya's looks like a pekingese died on her head.

Same hair different placement of her ponytails. Girls change their hair all the time in real life. I remember in college I had a girlfriend who had a different hair color every two weeks.

I don't think his argument is about it being a completely different hair style, it's that the hair is literally better looking. Like mechanically. There's no denying that the hair in the second picture looks better than the hair in the first picture, and that's not just because the ponytails are higher.

As someone who works with DAZ, I will say that this is a completely different hair model with much higher detail.
Moreover, these are two products from different authors. Previous Lily uses this hair asset:

Nerdy girl, ha-ha, ironic.

I'm the biggest DiK you'll ever meet. Never went Chick or Neitral. Not my thing and yes, Tremolo has gotten a bit more info when it comes to the girls and their pimp. So, even if he had the IQ of a potato he could figure it out. Might take him a month of wrenching his brain, but he'd figure it out.

Personally, I love the visual upgrades the game went through before it became absurd this development cycle. 60 FPS, just why.

Plus she comes out of a room in the prep house, not Burke's office, a party where there are a lot of sugar daddies and horny young people.

On top of that Camilla works for Quinn not for Burke and to know that you have to be a DIK and accept Quinn's prostitution services to understand that she wants to do the same with Maya, except that Quinn understands that Maya won't do it , so Quinn tells her that there was never any question of paying for her schooling if she joined the hots, and then only much later when Sage wants to help Maya we learn that she can obtain subsidies thanks to Sage's father for pay for his schooling, and then with the player's view (no tremolo) we understand that Burke uses his power to obtain sexual favors.

The only ones who may know but nothing is sure are Sage, Tybalt and Jade, if one day they went through Burke's things (but I imagine he uses a password on his computer), or the victim Mona but who until proven otherwise does not speak to anyone,
neither tremolo nor even the player has seen these scenes.

 

[Pax Draconis]

and do you think this change of hairstyle had any impact on the character's success?

I still think you're conflating the 3rd person omniscient scenes with the scenes that Tremolo has actually been present for. There's a lot of HOTs scenes or Quinn and her minion scenes that he's nowhere around where the Burke information is given to the player.

okay, but they are nuances, you like a character because of what she does or doesn't do, not because she changed her hairstyle.

if they changed Jill's hairstyle would it change anything? okay, it would be a little more realistic, but that's the character.

just like the 60 fps: either you liked it before or nothing changes
