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

[seniorboop]

Will the Tybault presentation with the dick pick, ruin everything with Jill? It was hilarious to see, but it´s already hard as hell considering the DIK´s affinity, to convince her, and when you think things go well, puff, it seems everything is in peril once again

If you're DIK, you may as well not even bother with Jill. I haven't looked at all of her scenes in the ep 7 script yet but every one i've seen involving the MC has conditional logic that breaks on DIK affinity.

DPC created a new variable, ep7_jill_jealous that caps out at a value of 2 depending on your status with Josy and Sage. From what I can see, it's only used to decide which scene fires off with Josy and Jill in the bathroom but you never know.

Regardless, if it turns out bad you can just enter "ep7_jill_jealous = 0" into the console and you're fine. It's not a persistent value so it'll probably be renamed if he does something with it in ep 8 tho

JFK, he's such a cunt, it's unbeleivable

This is why we sail the high seas of the internets fam

can not wait for ep 8 so many questions need answering!

 

[Deleted member 2461802]

will there be a patch for only ep 8, or should we wait until someone compresses the game after release

Side Note: I don't know who that little hottie is, but I was always hoping the MC would have some kind of interaction with her. Would smash, even if (especially if?) she turned out to one of the man-hating feminists.




Same boat as you. I'm off the grid Nov. 19-22, but my home router will be doing cardio workouts to stay in shape while I'm gone, knowing he'll have work to do when I return.

Isn't that Wendy sister? You can meet her if you talk to Wendy and agreed to help her with Derek.

 

[david83007]

what a scene in BAD i have no knowledge of? why is this being brought on now instead of the dead times?

i belive thats when you first meet derek and he talks about cheating the lady overhears and he says something

No patch for only ep 8 this time round. DPC has upgraded the game with the latest version of Ren'py so we all need to download the whole game this time.

Josy said to Jill that my MC would say to her to folow her heart. It´s very ambiguous. I know it´s an hard road being a DIK with Jill, but if it´s there it should be possible. I would be happy as long as Bella stays with me anyway, but i like Jill.
THe chick path, is it any good?

 

[david83007]

the chick path for jill is pretty good its a great little love story and u get her lewd scene in ep 7

10 Days. 1 week and 3 days. 240 hours. 14 400 minutes. 864 000 seconds; that's the last waiting.
Before we have the usual flow of lurker and spam on release, it was a pleasure to read you all these 7 months brothers.
Please note that all numbers in the table/post are set as the 19 November 2021.

• Episode 8 was made in 30 weeks; almost 7 months. With the biggest added content with +5GB.
• Compared to the last two episodes that's an off-delay of almost 7 weeks (≈50 days).
• I added a new Ratio value: (Renders+Animations)/Development Time:
  • EP8 is actually considered average in renders (19.7 vs 19.8), but leader in animations (1.70 vs 1.15).
  • We can clearly see these new GPUs since EP7, kicking the animations ratio into 1.62 vs 0.96 average. +69%
  • Episode 7 was the most efficient/generous, when Episode 4 had the less rendering made per days.
• Be sure to check again AchedCroissant post with all EP8 Previews. Hype!

19 gb is an incredibly huge game! It's almost like one and a half 7 episode. At the same time, episode 7 was big and intense. There were dates with all the major LI (well, except for Sage), a big mini-game on the renovation of the mansion, a party at the Hots, big freeroams at the Diks, Hots and in the library, several important scenes.
And interestingly, the repair mini-game will only take 2 rounds.
The only explanation for this size and the time spent is the separation of the routes of the main LI, each of which will get a unique event. You won't be able to go on a date with Bella and Jill at the same time, which confirms the words of DPC about months of conversations and new theories. Each of them will have an important plot event. But at the same time, it's scary to think how long the development of episode 9 will last if there is a separation of routes.

Dude, you're overthinking it. The overall size depends mostly on animations and you can shove them anywhere. They got +43% in numbers so the new ep. overall size got roughly +the same. That's it.

There is no way you can get the Jill masturbation scene if you're DIK. It's hard coded to be unavailable for DIK affinity.

if not ep6_jill_lewd or affinity == "DIK":
   stop music fadeout 3
   ji "*{i}Sigh{/i}* *Butterflies or not ... I can't put my finger on it ... Something about this feels off ...)"
   ...
   jump ep7_pre_dairy_label

THe chick path, is it any good?

I use console to switch to CHIK when im going for a CHIK scene. Otherwise, I only play DIK. CHIK MC is way too cringe imo.

I didn´t, it was just the talk between them. I´m affraid of changing those variables to be problematic.
That was the impression i got for the Chick path

It's just a variable bro. Every game you see on renpy could honestly be coded by someone who took an Introduction to Computing course, none of it is complex. You're just changing a value

And what I meant by the Jill masturbation scene is as a DIK player the number of lewd scenes with Jill you're going to miss out on, which im about 98% certain will eventually close her route, will only increase from this point on. Jill is not a DIK LI.

 

[OFT]

I was getting my saves ready, and something very gross occurred to me. I'm really, REALLY sorry for doing this to you all, but...

 

[Gladheim]

Soooo no Josy on the new episode's announcement...

I suppose that, as in other occasions, those who do not appear in the banner are "secondary" characters in the new episode, a pity

Really? How so? MC did have the chance to go down on Quinn later, but presumably she'd have bathed/showered since the CUM-petition.

If he had busted, then he would have lost, and according to the rules of the CUM-petition:

In anticipation of Episode 8, I've been refreshing my memory of the list of unanswered questions leading into the next release (courtesy of shazba):
Storyline Questions
It's a great list, but I STILL want to know who's at the door:
Knock, knock
It could mean something, it could mean nothing. But it has bothered me ever since Episode 5.

I would extend the questionnaire, some dark stuff is not mentioned there:

• Who is behind the Tybalt fake account on Rooster (it could be Lucas).
• What happened to Mona as she didn't answer her phone in Ep 7, we will ever see her again.
• Who were those two mature lads at the prep party in Ep 5 (a blonde one and a ginger one). Will they later play an important role in the story.
• What is Cathy's fate and will Tremolo interact with her after her termination.
• Who really trashed the DIK mansion.
• Why Chad beat up Troy.
• Why the jocks got blackmailed.
• Who robbed Quinn / stalks Rionna and will Tremolo help her out if he didn't bang her.
• Who really leaked the Jade adultery video.
• Who Lily really is or can be.
• Will Tremolo meet Nora again.
• Will likes in Rooster affect Tremolo's relationships.
• Who is the ultimate mastermind of the prostitution drug ring.
