VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[RNasc4444]

Hopefully a working mod comes out within a couples of weeks of the release or my single, heavily modded save is gonna go through some serious tinkering with variables

 

[DeFuZe]

I do hope after the game releases to all be gentlemen here and keep the spoilers to a minimum at least a week. Off I cannot believe we are 11 days away from the release date. Feels surreal.

Gentlemen? On the internet? hahahaha
Best to just logoff any BaDIK forum until you've finished your first playthrough at least, that's what I do.

Nothing special

Chick affinity
Go to Jill's picnic

Ah... Chick affinity. The hardest part in that list. I went with Jill, but couldn't help her with her nerves at the concert...

 

[Jimayo]

I've never used any mods and on my CHICK playthrough I had all 4 options available (Sage/Jill/Bella/MJ). Taking care of Sage takes you out of Jill's path but going to the picninc doesn't mean you can't choose Sage at the crossroads

Others would be the 5th option.

 

[Astrid Hofferson]

You need to practice guitar in freeroams to help Jill at the concert.

I practiced once and I didn't get any more moments to do it

I'm not here to brag about how much I love this game. I'm just posting this to make sure I'm not crazy.
View attachment 2214958
This is the PT's which I have now. and also several other branch saves. ( The season saves named MAIN is- CHase after every girl and choosing the named path. only means dedicated path.)

I started playing BAD when the EP7 dropped. This was my 3rd AVN (After Milfy shitty and AOA Academy). I liked it so much that I played the Modded version on my phone. Only 3 saves ( Dik, Chick and Neutral).
Then EP8 dropped
in EP8 we can choose a path so I decided to play dedicated PT's for the main girls.
and I bought a PC for just to play this game. and I played from the start and had 6 PT's.
but I did that using Walkthrough mod. The Mod messed up my saves and I decided to delete all the saves (again) which I had then and started fresh again by re-installing the game.
and I reached where I'm now.

So. My question is, The people here is like me?
I never get bored by doing it. I have planned to play it again right before playing EP9.
I discussed this with my friend and he called me crazy.
I just want to know That I'm not the only one

Yes, when Steam version released I went full time on replaying this and see as much hidden stuff as I can..only problem I had was, I didn't know how to get Jill to reject me in the restaurant on DIK route, so that save is with console commands..(If you have advice on how to do it properly, please tell me) and that one free slot is for another playtrough I didn't finish.

If Jill's eyes can focus does it mean she's an android (or a gynoid to be more precise)? Human eyes don't have this ability to focus (with depth of field, blurring the other parts of the image). Mr. DPC would never put something in his life project that doesn't have meaning. It must mean something! Jill is a gynoid!!!

First, the camera setting of DPC is chosen so that the field of view is Jill's.

Regarding your comment about people not being able to focus, I recommend you read a biology book. Do a search under pupils and eyeball.

hi- i am having trouble finding Rusty in the 17th free roam. thats the one where someone used diks rooster acct to post picture on cathy bathing. would someone please help me. thanks

 

[Hahn1900]

The animation seems to be less than last time. We don't know how many of these animations are not related to lewd scenes.

Not really correct here... DPC told us in one DEV report that the animations together will be way more longer than the ones combined of episode 8.

Less animations in numbers doesnt really matter that much when he is doing way more complex animations so each animation gets longer too. Which he did. Mabe it would be a better way to show the "time" animations runs instead to tell the numbers.

In fact you can easily do 300 animations with less than a minute "playtime" and you can do 300 animations with over an hour playtime... still 300... but the time is what matters most. And as far as i remeber the overall "time" will be nearly double compared to ep 8. And the complex animations are the main reason why this release took as long as it does... i mean, the last 8 weeks of the development was only about animation rendering... everything else was pretty much done. Hopefully those animations will be worth the wait... but honestly, i dont care that much about animations. I played so many AVNs already, many of those doesnt even have animations and are still very good... others have animations and suck ass. To me they are "nice" to have, but not necessary for a good game... and it seems DPC went overboard with them... but thats just me, for others there cant be enough animations. *shrug*

Either way... ep 9 will have way more animated playtime than ep8. Thats already confirmed by DPC.

than you didnt looked around enough.... there are more times you can practice (three times overall i think? dont know the exact number anymore), and yep it doesnt matter on which path you are... you can always practice enough to help her at concert. You need to lookout better for your guitar in the freeroams than.

the official walkthrough pdf on the startingpost should help.

I followed him. Well, maybe I'm just inattentive.

Next friday... we'll have the release date. December 23, 16 if we're lucky enough.

Would be the perfect date for me, working every weekend for the next two ones, Christmas weekend is my first free one. So plenty of free time for my saves to continue.

Starting 16th would give me only one free day until 23th, have to use the late evenings to stay in touch.

Episode 4, Episode 6 and Episode 8, i think you can practice in each chapter at the first free roam.

thanks i will try that

lmao to think i thought i only had to wait a couple months for the next episode last year

 

[Isaneclownposey]

In honor of having a release date, what's everyone's favorite episode so far? I've always been partial to 3 and 7. Episode 3 has always been one of me favorites because it was the last episode we had with Maya alone, ever since then I've had to share her with Josy.

And 7 because it felt like the most inclusive to every character.
