The updating of the mod usually only takes a day or two, if that, due to its popularity. It's always fun to run through and find out where DPC planted his next code suicide function.

If people want to cheat they will always find a way and it's inconsequential in an app thats basically a bunch of picturesThe updating of the mod usually only takes a day or two, if that, due to its popularity.

Committing himself to a battle he will never win. Close one door and the community will just find another open one ad infinitum.

Probably something to do with his walkthrough guide on patreon plus he charges extra for it on steam.
How I imagine DPC getting angry at people "harming his business":

waste of time exactly what ? You don't think he exactly fight against cheating right ?
.That's not what it is. HE created a code, a System. What your "mod" does that you use, is simply breaking the game, the system he created, which itself cause problem to the game.
This is not his fight against cheating or way more importantly not the Game fault. for example this "mode" allow you to change your affinity whenever you want it, but the game was not designed this way to play , so you essentially breaking the game's rule, so to speak.
These can cause bugs, and scenes won't be available , or the game crash, ect etc. But the key line is that this is not DPC problem, or fault. That is why he only say, that my game not compatible with these mods, you are free to do as you like , but he wont fix it if its crash, becasue its not his fault.
This is all, so there is no fight or anything. you just have to wait for the guys who created these mods, to update it for the current version.

No it isn't, read my post.
.although he is aware of people might look into coding, that is why we has "fan Walkthrough", he might actually hide things from them. For example there was no Hidden " Flag" for a warning for : Bella will reject you if you let Cat suck MC's dick .
But the modign is a different thing. IT's basically there to prevent peoples reporting bugs, and etc, that cause problem with the game, that they created by using a third party system, which is designed to break his system in the first place.
The peoples who show up here constantly ask for "when is the next release" are the same, who are in the very first moment when the episode arrive, ask for the full save, and immediately complain that they game is crashed and wont start etc etc. All becasue of their own fault. This is how it is wiht every new updatet

DPC has long had code which checks for the presence of mods and prevents the game running. In recent versions he's introduced increasingly stringent anti-mod checks.
He breaks ports or compressed versions which don't necessarily alter his game in any meaningful way. Modders/compressors/porters now have to do a bunch of extra work to disable DPCs anti-mod code for their releases to work.
So DPC is against modding of any description, regardless of whether the mods cause bugs or not.
No idea why, it might be he doesn't like dealing with complaints which are actually due to mods rather than the official game. But this seems unlikely, given he seemingly bans anyone who reveals they're running an unofficial version.
More likely he just doesn't like people messing with his game, because he's a control freak.

Interesting I didn't know that, thx for the information.
Regardless I'm on his side on this one , so I don't think he should get any shit on him.
And that part is way more likely on this matter than the usual, he is a control freak, not that him being a control freak is actually a bad thing
.not that I'm saying that if HE would be able to pay for denuvo he would not use it.
But yeah in this modding shit, he just don't want to deal with the complaint I Fully support that.
.IF it was me, I would make sure that these " cheaters " somehow won't be able to finish the game

So I was replaying some Sage scenes (as you do), and was reminded that DPC has teased us with Sage Anal, not once, but *twice*
Here's hoping EP8 finally has Sage and the MC crossing this threshold.

Developer messing with cheaters and modders has been a thing since the 90s, it's annoying but it isn't exactly new.

There are three ways that modding the game has been adversely handled:Interesting I didn't know that, thx for the information.

- In episode 7 DPC has logic that explicitly looks for the existence of cheat mod files. If the game finds them, it exits immediately (that was the drama in that scene with Josy near the beginning that every second player asked for help with). The work around was to simply use the new mod which had different filenames.
- The other check that's been around for a while is to determine which platform the game is running on. If it's running on anything but a PC, it omits some random scenes (like the Jill shower scene) and it even resets various character stats. The work around was to install the cheat mod or simply search for "renpy.variant("pc"):" in the code and edit where appropriate.
- The third method is inherent in Renpy. Mods typically extend the length of the code, when you save the game it saves a pointer to the line in the code. If you attempt to continue a new episode it's very likely that the pointer is misaligned since the code has reverted back to the original length. The walk around is to install the new mod or just load a previous save that works and zip through to the new story.
As to why does DPC bother? Have you played AL? It's pretty obvious DPC likes to fuck with people. Can you recall how many people were crying over the game "crashing" in the Ep7 Josy scene? Fucking heaps. I'd say mission accomplished.
You'll never beat piracy, but there's no harm fucking with them.

What does piracy have to do with modding? It's not like the mods would override any copy protection.
Just got caught up with ep.7, was not expecting that cliffhanger. Can't wait till the next update.

You're right, the mods aren't associated with piracy in this case since Renpy is so open, but reverse engineering games, bypassing securities, modding, pirating, they're all rolled into one basket pretty much.
Josy look alike

Yeah! I know she isnt that similar, but I get the same feeling I get with Josy. Probably the way she smiles.But only if you have drunk a lot of Raki.
