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

[Meushi]

Where do I put the transfer save from Stevey P so I can use it in Season 3?

This is explained in SteveyP's Spoiler: Saves/Persistent/Transfer Data - Install Location & Instructions:

Side Note for Transfer Data: This file is the binary data for the saves stated above that will be stored for import in Season 3. This file is stored in a folder labeled "persistent" in your Renpy Saves folder. Your Renpy saves can be found here

You must be registered to see the links

. If you are unable to figure out where to find/store this file, despite the link, then to avoid confusion, it's best to load the "Episode 8 End Saves" in Season 1-2 of Being a DIK, then save the binaries in game when prompted. Your computer will take care of the rest for you. You just have to click "Import" in the Main Menu of Season 3 (Interlude)

So that would be: %APPDATA%/RenPy/persistent/

On the walkthrough when i go to " - go back to the main hall to start a scene with Jill and Isabella " at the end of the 36th free roam i got a loop of events, when jill meet bella outside and then bella meeting sage, josy and maya. Its looping and i cant progress, anyone know how to proceed?

Faced such a problem: the game crashes after these words 3 season 9 episode. I just click to continue the dialogue and the game crashes without any errors

Did you bother looking if a solution had already been posted, or did you jump straight to asking the question?

Simply doing a thread search for "looping" or words in that dialogue (e.g. "scary" "mansion") would have quickly resulted in a solution for both issues.

Showing some effort to sort it out yourself is more likely to get an answer.

Missing Josy, how dare you!

Ha ha, yes, sorry. I suppose there is another category: Lis I forgot about. Truth is, I lost interest in her the moment she said she couldn't choose between MC and Maya, another character I forget about the moment she cheats MC and isn't able to choose between Josy and him. My MC chose for them. I don't find attractive characters that want to eat the cake and have it, I'm not interested in their personal dramas, and I don't even specially like their 3D models. I skip their scenes except when they are related with Tommy, Sage or something like that. That's why I didn't even remember them. In practice, they are not even in my gameplay and I don't think I'm missing a lot. The game is just fine without them. But it's me, I don't want to start a "Lis war".

[Geralt From Rivia]

Tbh: I for a while figured that Sage would of been Jealous of Zoey in some way. Don't forget she got out of relationship where she was really cheated on & was scared to take a risk with dating MC. I feel like there will be more reactions like this in the future with all the main girls.

Mostly, I see Sage & Jill being more threaten by Zoey.

Jill would be feeling a big type of way especially being nervous about not being experienced in the bedroom & then you have Zoey who pretty fucked him regular basis going back in life confusing him somewhat.

But, The thing Sage & Jill got over Zoey is that MC never Zoey about how he felt about his birthdays.

Only he tells Sage or Jill about it but always Sage if your not on Jill path.

Yes, that's a good point, Sage went through a toxic and traumatic relationship, her "boyfriend" used and lied to her. We can see how worried she is.
As for the rest of the LI. So far, Zoey's presence at the party has only affected Sage, Maya/Josy. And only with the two of them MC had a normal conversation about Zoey, it was heart to heart. One of the responses during Truth or Dare can even lower Maya/Josy RP.
I don’t remember Bella’s reaction, it seems that this topic was not raised at all. Unfortunately, because Bella has known about Zoey for a long time. Correct me if I'm wrong and inattentively passed this route.

Jill? She didn't seem to notice at all. A banana girl is much more concerned about the question after sex: "IS IT REALLY THAT YOU TROLL THAT FAT GIRL IN A SWIPER? WHY? THIS CANNOT BE, THIS DOESN'T MATCH WITH EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT YOU!"
No, seriously, this is an important conversation after sex. Lol. Of course we know that Jill doesn't like bullying, but there's a much more important big elephant in the room, Jill! The blue-haired beauty that you lose to in every way, the ex of your new boyfriend, was walking around the party, and you didn’t even pay attention!
Look at her, Jill and come back from heaven to earth, this is more important than Swiper's fatso! Are you sure you can compete?
But Jill's behavior is understandable - she is quite naive, simple-minded, kind, had no experience in relationships and was a victim of bullying at school. Therefore, it is much more important for her to punish the villains in the name of the moon in the name of justice.

But, The thing Sage & Jill got over Zoey is that MC never Zoey about how he felt about his birthdays.

I think it's not. Zoey has been his best friend for many years, she seems to know everything about the MC, only we weren't shown it.

 

[sakuyas_mmaster]

If you could add any female to the offical LI list who would you add.

Nicole, Zoey, Jade, Sally, Bianca. Some of the Vixens could also be tempting.

Status update Episode 10

Happy New Year!

It's 2023, and time for the first Status update for Episode 10.

I have been focusing on posing and rendering animations. You'll be happy to know that my PCs haven't been idle for a single day since beta testing started in early December.

It's been tricky to keep everything going during release weeks, Christmas and New Year, but I did it. And thus, I've got a nice head start on the animations for episode 10.

I have posed 85 animations, of which 37 are complete.

209 static renders are done, so there is some progress in this area.

I have been writing dialogue and working on the episode layout. My main dialogue files are roughly 5300 lines long. Compared to episode 9, this is roughly 20% of the episode.

I'm still planning the episode, adding events, and creating its structure. I'm aiming for a smaller episode than episode 9, and time will tell if I can do that.

Reaching the 5000 render milestone for a single episode was insane. Episode 9 alone could be compared to the entirety of Acting Lessons. It's been easy to add more and more scenes and renders when the game's cast is this big, and I want the spotlight to shine on as many characters as possible in every episode. But with the Halloween episode done, I can limit myself a bit with this next episode.

I can already tell from the events I've put in the episode layout that plenty of story and lewd scenes are to be had. I have decided on the girls getting lewd scenes in this episode, but I left some wiggle room if I feel something more is needed.

There will be plenty of new mini-games in this episode. I love creating them, and I developed several alongside episode 9 development last year. I have planned a couple of mini-games but have yet to create them. They aren't on the same scale as the party planner mini-game, but I think you will enjoy them even so. I'll likely tease you some of it during development without spoiling too much.

I'm looking forward to this development cycle! Right now, I'm battling a cold. I will rest for a few days and hope it will pass soon.

I'll post a Q&A post where you can submit your questions about development soon.

The walkthrough will be updated soon, too - it's about 95 pages long for Interlude and Episode 9 alone.

You can also look forward to fresh polls for episode 10 in January.

I hope this makes you as excited as I am. Have a nice weekend and a great start to the year!

Dr PinkCake

Good and pleasant news. Development has just begun, and we already have a head start in the form of 37 completed animations and over 200 statics. Of course, we can't say how long it will take to develop an episode, it's impossible now, and I doubt Doc's words that he will try to make the episode smaller, but 37 finished animations is about a month head start.


The new mini-games are most likely new science-related classroom activities, and Josy with MC were talking about this when they were teasing each other.
The fact that there will be a lot of story is also good, I'm sure that the next episode will not be a huge free-roam.
In any case, the wait has begun. I hope that we will all be alive to play Episode 10.

What happens if Zoey wins the competition and MC is in Sage's path? Any different reaction to other paths?

No, there is no reaction from Sage to Zoey win, only to the nomination. After all, the victory depended on how loudly the crowd screams, and not on the MC.

 

[jak1165]

Man y'all are scumbags. I could never do my boy Magnar dirty like that

Karen Rebecca Johnson tho. I could uh...get behind that idea, as it were

 

[Ir0n Ma1den]

1. Sage (Gorgeous, ultra-kinky, funny, charismatic, popular, and genuinely cares about the MC. The-Fucking-Perfect-Girlfriend. And she's going to need a lot of love and caring when all the drama around her father and the HOTs explodes. MC must be there for her!)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2. Isabella (The ultimate MILF with and intriguing and probably dramatic story behind. A challenge for MC)
3. Quinn (Dancing with the devil. She's insanely hot, charismatic, smart, and probably beyond redemption. The biggest challenge for MC. He must accept it, even if probably is going to crush him)
4. Riona (She's a hooker and a drug dealer, but also she's a sweet good girl in the inside. And really cute and sexy. MC must make her happy. Just must)
5. Nicole (Sweet and sexy at the same time. I want to see the MC doing crazy things with her and the girls of the Pink Rose, and at the same time, playing to be a daddy-big brother to her son)

All LI's present some challange to MC.

Jill all the status drama

Maya&Josy is a major drama, does the threesome continues, does the girls get jealous of each other, MC loves one then the other, how is their enviorment react to this. Many things

Lily is some sort of informant/cop/agent but she also seems legit intreasted in MC, and she seems like a smart girl with ambitions.

Nora is also going to get expended so we gonna see where it goes with her.

Zoey is definetly loves MC and MC didn't forget about her comepltly, so again drama here.

And who knows if DPC dosen't decide throw another girl into the mix.

This is my opinion but the game is going to be much bigger then DPC planned, some people threw the number of 18-20 episodes, I think now it will be arounf 20-25 episodes give or take.

 

[Klepon]

If you could add any female to the offical LI list who would you add.

I would add, Quinn, Riona, Nora, Nicole and lily.

1. Heather. ( mature romance drama)
2. Nicole. (MILF Thing)
3. Sally. (smart people/nerd drama)
4. Lily. ( a drug dealing/mafia related drama)
5. Karen.(similar to sally.only this one is lighter and doesn't make your mind bothered).

 

[znar25]

Again, attention to small details in the game. At the moment, we are considering two renders with the same situation, but different choices made by the player.
How Sage reacts when you pick Zoey in the top 3 for a costume contest.

First scenario. The chosen path is Others. Sage already knows that Zoey is MC's ex-girlfriend (thanks Derek), but since you and Sage are just friends, her reaction is positive and she continues to smile, keeping her spirits up.
View attachment 2289045

Second scenario. The chosen path is Sage. And she's your girlfriend now. She is a little confused, no smile, and a shadow of doubt is written on her face. I think Sage has a lot of thoughts in her head right now, "why did MC invite her." Even the dialogue has changed, it's an ellipsis before she finishes the question. Sage didn't make a scene of jealousy, but she would remember that.

Another amazing moment showing the immersiveness and liveliness of the BaDIK world. And as always, these moments are not easy to spot. So if anyone sees it, please upload it.

Great observation. Will now have to check when in the theater room, Sage and Maya have a conversation... and Maya tells Sage the guy that kisses great is MC.

Nicole, Riona, Lily and Kylie or Tara.

Okay so recently i downloaded this game called 'college kings' it seemed fun i saw the screenshots and read the reviews they were all mostly positive so i downloaded it to give a shot. Almost 10 mins in the game i saw this bully character named Cameron that had a great resemblence lol who am i kidding its the same model as BaDik's MC and boy i wouldnt have minded him if he was given atleast a better hairstyle and a better role? i am so attached to BaDik's MC that i didn't wanna see what this Cameron guy does in the game cuz lol after that i dont think i ll be able to see badik's MC the same way as i used to...i just love this character so much

i like cameron if you pledge to the apes he becomes your bro and you bang his sister, kinda reminds me of a less assholy tommy

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

Does Jill even know about Zoey? She wasn't involved in the truth or drink game with Sage, Bella, Josy and Maya. Derek told Maya who Zoey is but I don't see any reason for him to tell Jill. Even if she heard on the grapevine that Fuckface's ex was at the party she probably wouldn't care, don't forget Rusty is technically her ex and is at the party too. She doesn't know how deep Fuckface's relationship with Zoey was.

Biggest issue is Bella not really having questions about it, she knows the history of Fuckface and Zoey and should have some sort of issue with her being back in Fuckface's life just as they start a relationship. Only reason I can think of for her not asking is worrying that asking about Zoey would open the door for Fuckface to ask about James. And obviously DPC is not ready to reveal the James story yet.

It's entirely possible that Jill didn't even find out about Zoey at the party. It's a pity anyway, I'd like to see every MG's reaction.

Bella was very surprised, maybe she really doesn't want to ask for this reason. "Tell me your secret and I'll tell you mine." James is still a taboo topic for her to talk about. Or maybe it's just a plot flaw.

Great observation. Will now have to check when in the theater room, Sage and Maya have a conversation... and Maya tells Sage the guy that kisses great is MC.

Yes, there are also different reactions, if you are on the Sage route, she is more confused. It's embarrassing to realize that your boyfriend is most likely a player who fucked half the campus. At least we don't get -RP Sage for it.
I'm going to do another post later - the MC reacts differently to the meeting with Burke, depending on the decisions.

Three different reactions, one if you're dating Sage, one if you were fuckbuddies but broke it off, and another if you rejected Sage every time.

That's the last reaction I didn't see because I never refused to have some fun with Sage. It would be interesting to see this.

Hopefully most of this are with Nicole , Hence she is the first preview

I'm still planning the episode, adding events, and creating its structure. I'm aiming for a smaller episode than episode 9, and time will tell if I can do that.

And time will tell: NO!
