Could it be more than 2 weeks?
I have no idea. I use Sancho1969's mods and he tries to get them out as fast as he can. But it also depends on his schedule and if there's been a shit-ton of changes. But generally, the modders try to get things out on a timely basis.
Yeah, there's really no way of providing an ETA, ever. I have some updates that take 2hrs and some that take a week. It depends on the amount of features the mod has to update and verify their continued integrity, how many new features are going to be implemented, how long it takes to review and analyze the VN's changes and new content for bugs, all new variable and conditional analysis to outline new guide code, etc, etc.

It's like asking the chicken/egg question... your guess is as good as mine and why I'm always transparent in all of my mod's threads as I progress through updates. I give folks the good, bad, and ugly as I work through updates so they have a general idea of where I'm at, what's going on, and where we set. Make sense?

Honestly, I just have such low expectations at this point that I just want it to not suck.
Huh, as critical as I am of DPC, I wouldn't really say I have low expectations. DPC has always produced interesting episodes, the worst thing about his worst episode was just how it was 90% free roam. If I could ask for anything, it would just be for him to cut the fat (unnecessarily long animations, 60 fps animations, etc) and make shorter development times, I completely trust him with the storytelling aspect.

I only vaguely remember when Ep 9 came out last time so don't quote me on this. But I think he made an initial update that provided basic functionality like the walkthrough and getting rid of DPC's anti mod code during the weekend. Then subsequent updates/game breaking fixes throughout the following week or two.

As long as you're not playing multiple paths per run, you'll probably just need to sit tight for a day or two. He's usually pretty damn fast when it comes to the initial mod update.

I can't say for sure that it will come out that fast and that it won't break things but I remember being able to just play it with the mod only a few days after the episode comes out.
Thanks a lot, this is the answer i was looking for cause i always just play 1 path which is my main and only path actually, i don't really play any other paths or do multiple saves and all so it won't be a problem

does making a save from season 2 work on season 3? what if i used mods on season 2 does it still carry over?
Made compressed Android ports of Being a DIK S1 & S2 v0.8.3 and S3 v0.9.1 with the multimod.

Got some basic gestures loaded in: swipe up for save menu, swipe down to hide UI, swipe left to rollback and swipe right to skip. Save files are now stored in the Documents folder. This sometimes means that you may need to close and re-open the port after installing so the save folder is properly created.

Due to the size of Being a DIK S1 & S2, I've split it out so you will need to install the apk, run it to get it to create the game folder that can be found in your Documents folder: Documents/Eonor/e.beingadik.s1/game. Then move the archive.rpa file into that folder and re-run the port.

Season 3 requires that you load a save from Season 2 and I haven't been able to properly test that yet. If it doesn't work, there are save files I knicked from elsewhere on this thread that you can add to Documents/Eonor/e.beingadik.s3.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues with the ports and I'll see what I can do to get them sorted.

Being a DIK S1 & S2 v0.8.3: Pixeldrain -

Being a DIK S3 v0.9.1: Pixeldrain

Being a DIK S3 save files: Pixeldrain

Edit 30/09/23: Updated the S1 & S2 port to resolve an issue that would close down the port at the end of Episode 7

And no Quinn, some people here are getting mad lol.
The deluded "Quinn is a LI" simps are gonna have a heart attack now that an official DPC Ep10 poster has RIO as the 6th girl in it. <Kicks the hornets nest and runs away> :ROFLMAO:
This is either a DPC joke or purposely pissing off Quinn fans... It doesn't make sense... I like Rio but Quinn is a "bigger" character...
Quinn fans will note, doubtless with a not inconsiderable amount of satisfaction, that: Quinn appears in the main banner announcing the episode's release date (usually indicative of there being substantial content for said girl). Switching up the face of the Others' branch is no big deal, it's the content that matters, and all signs point to it being a big episode for Quinn.

Also, seriously, I can't believe there's anyone left at this point who genuinely still doubts that she's a bona fide LI. Talk about delusional. :rolleyes:

Honestly, I just have such low expectations at this point that I just want it to not suck. It's also one of the reasons why I'm kind of indifferent about the release date being a week later than what everyone wanted.

As long as it doesn't suck, it's going to be a good update. That's how low the bar is right now for me.
i am with you there homie.

Pffft... imagine the work it took to code my FreeRoam guides in SanchoMod. Some of them almost crossed the line of being brutal to finally sort through while trying to balance holding the Player's hand too much while also providing them enough information to be beneficial. My free roam guides generally kick ass but are a massive pain to code properly... so yeah, when an update is almost nothing but FR I cringe just a tad. :ROFLMAO:

From what I remember, it took Scrappy longer to release the first version of his mod than other mod makers for episode 9. Like I think Sancho took like 2 days and Scrappy took like 5.

I want to see some mysteries solved, mostly:

- who posted Cathy's picture,

- who blackmailed Chad,

- what's the link between Jill's family and MC's mother,

- who are MC's grandparents,

- what happened to Bella's marriage,

- why Jill and Bella are so close,

- who the hell is Priscilla (the woman Burke called after he dismissed Maya in episode 9),

- who really knocked up Arieth?

- who put the cameras in DIK's mansion,

- who cheated in the exams? will there be consequences?

- will Tybbie marry his beloved watermelon?
- who posted Cathy's picture?
Burke, to get rid of her, and perhaps also to take her place in doing favors for the Burgmeisters (Protecting the DIK's and their president who is a Burgmeister, for example).
He may have had help from Quinn and Rio to do this, it's natural for them to have to do things for him.

- who blackmailed Chad?
Quinn and Riona, to get rid of him and make Dawe president.
(Similar to Quinn wanting Tommy or Fuckface as president, easier to control at least.)

- what's the link between Jill's family and MC's mother?
No link.

- who are MC's grandparents?
Neither Burgmeister nor Royce.

- what happened to Bella's marriage?
She suffered a miscarriage due to something she did, and they couldn't get over it and decided to take some time apart.

- why Jill and Bella are so close?
They met in a counseling group and became close.

- who the hell is Priscilla (the woman Burke called after he dismissed Maya in episode 9)?
Burke's lawyer, and who can also be Jill's lawyer.

- who really knocked up Arieth?
Burke.
(Jade can't have children, so Burke having a child with a student, who is also a friend of his daughter, will make for good drama, and will screw him up on many levels.)

- who put the cameras in DIK's mansion?
Burke.

- who cheated in the exams?
Lily.

- will Tybbie marry his beloved watermelon?
No marriage, they will live in sin.
