Mod Ren'Py Being a DIK Walkthrough+Cheat Mod [v0.10.1][scrappy]

[list101]

Is the DPC really aganist this mod? Why is he added this mod to the "Extras" section on his game's page then? If the DPC is really aganist this mod, I don't know what to say really. This mod is a gem. Without this mod, I wouldn't have enjoyed the game this much.

There are warnings against using the mod in the beginning of the official thread. It could break your saves. However that's to be expected for any mod in general. The mod could change some variables which are co-dependent - some saves may crash. Once using the mod - it is wise to wait for the updated mod before playing the update... or start from the beginning.

No game pages on this site are controlled by the creators of the respective games. Even when the first post is from one of them, sometimes they are not allowed to modify the OP. And when they are, they are never 100% in control.

True. And I think that's awesome.

Scrappy, God bless you, man. Thank you for your hard work.


P.S. It's funny how people are all shocked and surprised DPC is so against mods and stuff. Have you talked to the fella? His ego dwarfs empire state building. Heaven forbid someone changes something in his perfect creation.

Picasso often portrayed himself as a Minotaur, with a bull's head on a man's body, or the other way around as a centaur. Some folks are just artists.

Seems to me like all that's necessary to fix the problem is to comment out those 4 lines of code.

So after finishing the update, I’m wondering what’s going to be done about certain branching paths and the like. At the moment it seems like scrappy will be able to do what he usually does and give the ability to just take all of them. However, now it’s a bit hazy if these paths are going to be like earlier choices where it only has some minor callbacks from time to time that really just add different flavors; or will it be full on dedicated stories that don’t connect the way earlier choices did. Personally I’m a bit spoiled and prefer to be on all branches and scenes if it doesn’t break the game. But whatever happens, I’m sure the mod will continue to be great.

Spoiler: Side note on scenes

Jade scene on episode 4 seems to be really meaningful for the story, in an extent that it was impossible for being coded without one path conflicting the other. There's a solution for that, which is using the variables label on the cheat menu and activating both paths.

Pretty sure Bella finding Jades panties in her car is the deal breaker variable here. That kinda pissed me off across chapters. Was so happy this mod let you get around that made no sense to me why those paths would be exclusive. Same with taking the pictures for Tybalts presentation. Again, this mod is what makes the game fun and playable.. really wouldn't be the same without Scrappy's hard work.

If the save is clean, I don't see why you couldn't add the updated mod whenever you want.

If you have the old version of the game, you can start a save for it to play with the old mod, no problem. When you get to the part of this last EP, go to the updated version of the game and put the mod updated to 0.8, normally.

Thanks, i'm playing 0.7.2 with the mod while i wait for the big man scrappy to finish his work!
If i encounter something weird i'll try to leave a post here explaining in case it might be useful.

In update8.rpy

if renpy.loadable("1NewCheatMod.rpyc"):
    $ persistent._clear(progress=True)
    $ renpy.save_persistent()
    $ renpy.quit()

Dr PinkCake is one of the few developers that are actually worth subscribing too, with consistent updates and good content, but come on, thats just sad...

That's quite nasty honestly. If he is bothered by people asking him about errors of the modded game, after the cheat check there should be a disclaimer that a modded version is unsupported so don't bother asking him about any bugs or how the game plays out and continue playing the game at your own risk.

I love Being A DIK, but Dr Pink Cake not so much. I've been supporting being a DIK in the patreon for like almost a year now. Asked in the discord if the crash was related to the game or if it was due to something else. Got banned instantly from the discord and patreon. I guess I get it that he doesn't like modded talks, but damn. Didn't even get a warning or a reason for the ban. Broke my heart.

Damn, bro, from patreon too?

Yeah, got an email a few minutes later. That he had banned me from patreon. I was mostly in it for the Dev Updates and giving support in general. I guess he really doesn't like mods.

Or he's just a big'ol DIK.

 

[Mikilande]

Please, can you update to : Being a DIK - version 0.8.0
Thanks in advance...

 

[Sodapops]

Waiting for the GOAT Scrappy to update the mode was today or tomorrow? sorry i live in a diff timezone

 

[dacris69]

like i said a couple of pages baack, money makes you a douche, if he needed patrons, he would have kissed your ass

Well he did that when released the BaDIK game... its the first post on the game thread...

Joking aside, I hope you enjoy the game. I worked my ass off to create this and boy this is expensive.

I need funding to complete this project.

If you can't afford to donate on Patreon, you can still show support by liking or reviewing the game.

Cheers

Actually, I bet you could just change the name of the file in the mod itself, since it seems to just be looking for a specific filename. Then you wouldn't have to decompile anything.

He's such a asshole, its well documented. But damn, that's like icing on the cake, what a Turd.

Why it broke your heart though. I would be totally cool with it. You will keep those dollars now instead of giving to that Dr. Pink Ego. He doesn't deserve that much support from all those patrons anyway.

update when?

Scrappy, God bless you, man. Thank you for your hard work.

I won't play this game without a mod which goes to show just how I feel about at least one of the minigames that DPC put in. The dialog can also be a pain which is why I also use the mod; well written, but very easy to miss something if wrong dialog options are chosen.
