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

[Chalk boss]

About the only thing that would change is that without him, Zoey might think differently about Tremolo after the BBQ. We don't know what effect it will have when Tremolo gives Jacob his approval or not.

And? Why Jacob? Why not Leon?
Will MC only see Jacob as a romantic rival?
It could also be Rusty, who has done much more for MC and considers him a closer friend than Tommy for example.
Why Jacob specifically?

Leon gets around a lot and doesn't seem to want to settle down.
It could be that Rusty still isn't over his crush for Micha, or that he is a better people reader than Jacob.

Hey brother i only have to add import files in S3 of all the path of girls....Shall i download all the zip files ( ex EP 1 , EP 2 EP3 etc ) and extract them in game folder of S3 or is there any specific file only to add the import files ( i.e path of the girls ) in S3

So which files you need to download depend on your goal.

If you're only interested in having saves for the upcoming episode, I would recommend downloading "Episode 11 Start Saves" and "Season 3 Persistent"

If you want to start Season 3 over from the beginning then I would download "Transfer Data" and put it into your persistent folder in your renpy saves and import the saves from seasons 1&2 when starting season 3.

Usually people just download everything and put them in the proper folders for Being a DIK. I have instructions on how to do that on the post you quoted. As for the saves for specific paths for girls. I have labeled the saves for you, so when you install them it should be pretty easy to see which save is for which girl(s).

Also, I would not recommend using a mod for this game. While there are talented modders that can eventually circumvent DPC traps, they take time. Modding your game will cause errors in the game just as "Mod Detected" prompts, endless dialogue loops, crashes, and halting progression on single renders. If you want to use mod then that's your prerogative but just note it will cause issues for when the next episode drops.

Hope this answers all your questions.

Yeah that disturbed me too... As soon as the alphas take a look at those pictures it was already clear to them that those cant be from MC. But Ant told Ashley they did come from the MC in ep 10 (7 episodes later)... which is really weird.

Though, it could be a possibility that DPC just made an mistake here, but i doubt it. All the Alphas a first-class-assholes. With one exception... Ant. And he kinda acts dumb, but its shown here and there that he isnt THAT dumb at least. Dont know if he has some kind of agenda, but the fact that there are some things that dont add up regarding him, and that his role become bigger and bigger with each episode (while all the other Alphas become less important, even Dawe) gave me the idea that there is more to Ant and that he will reveal a bigger role in pretty much everything later on.

The discovery of the hidden cam and just a few days later Ant "rats" out MC to Ashley? Coincidence? He could have told her the thing with the pictures in episode 6 or 7 already, why so late and why now?

Wouldnt suprise me if he is a puppet from Burke or so.

Probably because Dawe told him and he believed Dawe

At the end of 12 you begin playing as Caleb, who takes over the Alphas and merges the DIKs in with them, all while wooing all of the LIs and side girls into his personal harem.

Dude, you just made me cry a little, thinking about that scene, and how Rutger Hauer is gone forever...

Stop, or you’ll make me cry… I love that film, btw.

I use the mod because I got tired of it crashing with using URM.
Like someone said before, this is a popular game and it might take 1 week at most to update it (Which is okay)

You don't have to explain yourself to me. If you want to use mods, then be my guest. I was just letting Urban Legend know that mods will cause issues when the new update drops. And will take time to solve.

My guess is people don't like Jacob for whatever reason & want him out of the DIKs.

The sudden hatred for Jacob is an example of why I'm against matchmaking in BaDIK. Jacob has always been considered by many to be one of the coolest DIKs in the game, but everything changed after EP.10.

Jacob was unfortunately sacrificed to add drama between MC and Zoey. Now imagine if instead of Jacob, the DPC had included the option to allow Rusty to try his luck with Jill? In the eyes of most players, Rusty would be ruined as a character and the hatred for him would increase exponentially.

And I see people wishing for an option to encourage Neil, the most beloved character in the game, to end the game with one of the older women Bella/Nora/Cathy. Does Neil's character deserve to have haters for something that adds nothing to the plot? Just think about it.

Well Nora could have just rejected Tremolo saying she wants and older guy on Swyper and boom problem solved with that Character, MC never had a chance and Nora is written for Neil

It's too late. Nora's already pregnant with MC's baby.

I've seen the animosity towards Jacob before, the Zoey/Jacob situation added fuel to it.
Personally, I wouldn't mind setting Neil up with some of the mature SGs, as long as I'm not running their route. So that MC dad can finally cope with his inner demons. He never recovered from Lynette.
Cathy would be a great choice, she don't have red flags and single.
Nora is too shady, we know little about her.
And Bella is an issue, because pairing Main Girl with another character is probably too extreme.

I would say that getting Neil, who as far as we know has not dated at all since Lynnette died, to find happiness or at least start moving on to finding it, very much adds to the plot, as well as helping some of the other older ladies to find it as well. This is definitively not a harem game. Why should all of the other people in the game end up lonely and unhappy?

If Neil got together with Bella, MC can always poke fun at Neil saying his mom sucked his dick.
No, DPC, not going for that!
So I think someone can only get together with Neil if MC didn't have any relationship with her.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against Neil moving on. But I am against Neil moving on with any of the girls who are MC's love interests (just to avoid what happened with Jacob).

However, I believe that Neil doesn't want to move on... otherwise he would have done it already (it's been almost 20 years since Lynn's death).

I believe that the fact that he remained 'faithful' to Lynn even after her death is one of Neil's most striking characteristics, since it is proof of how much love he felt for her (and still feels).

Stop, or you’ll make me cry… I love that film, btw.

I've always envied people who can enjoy old movies, the only old movie I liked was Alien.

I loved the setup mechanic in AL. That being said, I won't mind a return since its DPC and I know it will not lead like in Nyx' case into a fully rendered and animated sex scene, directed and edited in the cuckiest way possible

In Acting Lessons it had 2 prompts. If Jacob/Zoey is one of those, I will expect another choice to the player to give his blessing when we are closer to the endgame.
But, that won't happen since the black guy Jacob is the Traitor, fosho

Edit. Which Neil pairing would be the most ridiculous? I think its Neil x Jade for me.

Neil & Madame Rose would be the most ridiculous pairing
