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

[Kukipett]

Well, or the developer could pull off a twist with a delay of menstruation . My ex-girlfriend loved to scare me with her pregnancy, even though she had the usual delay, which could last a month and a half. Pregnancy is an easy way to create drama from scratch.

Oh pregnancy, the first time it will kick you in the balls and you will panick, but after some time you get used to it, i think it happenend to me about 10 times and cost me a lot of money to help the girls to solve the problem and the last time i decided to get married because it was time for me, i was getting old, and it cost me a fortune!!

 

[Kukipett]

Well at least they didn't abandon them. I hope

Maybe she didn't say her husband/boyfriend what kind of pill she was taking.
"What kind of pill honey?"
"You know the colored ones, i think it's named Smarties on the box!"

I'm not singling anyone out when I ask this question. Almost every screenshot I've seen on this forum does this. It's high time I asked.

Why do SO MANY of you play this game with the text box enabled and the opacity turned up significantly? What do you think it adds? To me, it just gets in the way of the render, like in this example above. I have my text box disabled and I see every word crystal clearly. Here is an example of my game.

Spoiler: Turn off your text box, people

So serious question, why do people prefer obscuring the renders?

You can always press H if you need a clean shot to jerk to. For the rest of the time, being able to actually see and read the text is useful.

Maybe because they find the text hard to read that way?

This is for the Capture2Text tool. The activated text field increases the contrast so that the tool can recognize the text better.

With this tool the copied text can be translated simultaneously and automatically into the native language.

Everyone has different preferences, but I am in the no text box camp. I try to remove ren'py text boxes whenever possible. If the dev gives me the choice, I take it. If not, I manually remove it by replacing it with my own transparent or near transparent text box (I have several of varying shades and dimensions). It really depends on what kind of font the game is using. Fortunately, DPC uses a white font that has a black border/highlight. If devs do that, then you can normally see the text quite well even on a bright background like your Jill example.

Like you, I prefer to see the renders, especially DPC's amazing work, unobscured and in all their glory. And not just for the lewd renders during happy hand time. I like to see each full render without having to constantly hit "H" on every screen.

Cool, didn't know that.

I reckon that answers your question, Icekatana. There are quite a few people here using translators and us native English speakers don't even think about it.

It translates not only english. The tool is really handy and uses Google Translator as a translation matrix.

Available languages are English, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian and Spanish.

I almost forgot about that. It's free of charge.

But seriously I turn it off when I play but turn it on for screenshots because I post them for the text, if I wanted to post a render I'd just use original images without any text instead of screenshots

While researching the DPC patreon, I came across such a render Sage. Pay attention to her eyes. Sage is crying. Something tells me that it's because of the news about Chad's homosexuality.

I absolutely agree with this. In the right eye you can see a Halloween pumpkin. There are two guys present. One guy's hair color is unidentifiable, but the other guy is blond.

It could be that Sage catches Chad and Troy inflagrantie at the party.

Remember the cluck where the MC sarcastically replied to Sage?

"That's easier than my plan of asking them to fuck in front of you."

Maybe he did implement the hard plan at the Halloween party.

Wasn't that a theory of mine once?

That render is old I think DPC did it before EP 7 came out

It’s possible … a pregnancy scare is a usual trope… Just look at Jamie and Dany

More drama for the MC I guess! If there is really a pregnant LI…
Worst Scenario: Game Over
Best Scenario: Pregancy sex

Well, I kind of feel singled out since it’s basically my screenshot.
Look I don’t know what to say… I have bad eyesight sue me.
Reminder: I thought that this new Discord avatar was Bella for a while.

Ever since the text box was available in episode 6 I used it and I never bothered to take it off…
But it’s true that it kind of suck that it partially blocks the render… That’s why ‘H’ is my best friend.
If some of you feel offended, I’ll remove the text box in my next screenshots!

That render is old I think DPC did it before EP 7 came out

That was from early ep8 development:

"Yesterday, I spent quite some time experimenting with makeup for Sage, which is a part of setting up a scene. I tried out different combinations to see if I liked something new. Here's a quick render of it; please note that the actual render is not used in the game it's just for this status update."​

[COOLMASTER]

I really hope we don't have to spill the beans to Sage (about Chad/Troy) in order to progress with her romance (and get the best content). That would be a really shitty thing for DPC to do to everyone involved. Players and some characters. I really hate that storyline. Why must everything hinge on revealing of the sexuality of two side characters who aren't in MC's circle of friends or love interests? Two ex-jocks playing grabass in the locker room....don't care! Ah ffs, DPC is going to do it, you know he is. Just like the "rebound guy" dumbassery, he has to throw in some weird off the wall side drama that you have no choice with.

I think DPC decided early on that he can't give players a perfect situation with an LI (namely she just want to fuck with no strings attached). Something has to screw it up. I just wish it didn't depend on outting two side characters. The dumb rating system from Sage (designed to hamstring those who actually want the fuck buddy) seems not that bad by comparison.

Even if the MC has the option to not tell her, you know it's going to come out eventually. If they are playing tonsil hockey in public, someone else is going to catch them at some point.
