Ren'Py Bonds of Love [v1.6] [Zelathorn Games]

[Valronn]

This doesnt have any animations does it?

 

[Deleras]

I get those errors too and I started from the beginning. No clue what's wrong there, weird.

Same thing here!

 

[Zexawy]

too much errors

 

[Belnick]

I'm getting Exception Errors at certain times clicking om the pool & the bathroom. Enjoying things pretty well other than that.

getting same, also I can no longer visit aunt because similar grey screen

these three errors prevent you from finish the last "quests"
it reminds me of the same error in the game power vaccum, you click on the pool at certain time and crash, you click on bedroom at certain time and crash....not the same dev, right?

error for aunt, week days late afternoon:

KeyError: u'c_helpful_lad4'

error for upstairs lounge: week days late afternoon:

KeyError: u't_sex_ed2'

Error at pool, sat mid afternoon:

KeyError: u't_sex_ed2'

edit::

thought there was a hotfix out, but I just downloaded the same thing again lol

First of all, I’d like to make something very clear. I am a STUDENT not a professional developer. I have never worked on any program of this size and scope before. If you’re expecting my F R E E and W I P game to be magically free of bugs and working perfectly, you’re living in some kind of utopia and I want in.
I’d like to refer you to Bethesda and Ubisoft who RELEASE BUGGY AAA titles. Now, obviously the scope of their games is on a completely different level from mine, but the fact remains they released buggy games, while mine is still in development.
I’d also like to point out most games don’t release updates of their WIP games, or have to deal with keeping existing saves compatible. These seem to me to be what the majority of complaints are about, though I could be wrong about that. I’d like to refer you to Baldur’s Gate 3, which is in early access right now, and again, is obviously on a completely different level from my game, but the fact remains not all of their updates allow for the use of old saves.
If what I have just said has offended anyone’s delicate sensibilities, or you disagree with what I’ve just said, feel free to leave and never come back. No one’s keeping you here.

To all those who report bugs and post their tracebacks and don’t just whine incessantly about what a shit game this is, thank you, I really appreciate it. I can’t catch all the bugs on my own.

Some of you seem to be worried about dev promises and all that because you’ve been burned in the past. I can but offer you my assurances that I won’t go back on what I’ve said.
I’d like to reiterate: there won’t be forced threesomes, no forced ntr. You will be able to go through the entire game and just have single relationships with each of the girls you so wish to, who won't have relationships with others if you don't want them to. You don’t even have to have a relationship with every character if you don’t want to.

Kathy is NOT an escort. She works in an escort club as a waitress. I haven’t exactly done extensive research on how escorts operate, but I'm fairly certain you don't have to have sex when you hire an escort. A prostitute, as far as I’m aware, only offers sexual services, but escorts have a wide range of services they offer which includes literally just talking if the client so wishes, so if you disagree with how I’ve reasoned it out, how Kathy fills in occasionally but with clear boundaries, that’s a slightly different issue and we’ll just have to agree to disagree.

Apologies for the bugs when starting a new game. I made what I thought were minor tweaks and so I didn’t test them, but I made a stupid mistake which has resulted in new bugs. New game should work properly now. This should also fix the problems with going to locations with Tahlia and problems with Helpful Lad quest. Let me know if it doesn’t. I've requested an update so the hotfix version should be coming soon.

I agree with you and ULYAYA, a free bug game is clearly an utopia. But such number of reports should make a bugfix version come fast instead of adding new stuff, especially if you want to keep your patreon pledge and not been call a scam.
That would be a shame if such quality game (because your art is fantastic and the story itself is well written compared to some other) got destroyed just because of one big bad issue like the current one.

This used to be an error when the quest menu was opened while a notification was still being displayed. Were you clicking on the quest menu when this error occurred?

Totally agree, and my response to that is that in the past, as far as I know, I had no gamebreaking bugs that flat out stopped the game, and since I had one now where questlines were broken, I made a hotfix for it in one day, so I think I did alright. As for more minor ones, there were either not gamebreaking, or I had a workaround for it until the next release. Also, some people post bugs that I can't recreate, yet when I ask for more information or save files to help me out, they don't respond again so I don't know what I can do in that situation.
Some people are still saying the hotfix didn't work, so I am trying to gather more information since those bugs were fixed for me in the hotfix version on a new game, so I really don't know what more I can do.

TO ANYONE STILL EXPERIENCING BUGS WITH TAHLIA AND AUNT, PLEASE CHECK YOUR DOWNLOAD OF THE GAME HAS HOTFIX IN THE TITLE. IF IT DOES, LET ME KNOW AND I WILL TRY FIX THE BUGS.

Nope, no animations

 

[zelathorn]

Ok but your still having the same problem when the next version comes out with more side content and it ends prematurely again.

I understand it can be annoying, but I have already explained why I did this. The pacing has also evolved as the game went on, so actually if you start a new game, you can get through all the quests barring one or two before reaching the end of the main.

 

[Cirdon]

Were you clicking on the quest menu when this error occurred?

Looking at the stack I can only assume so. All too frequently having the error dialogue pop up erases my memory of what I was just trying to do.

Sorry about that. I have no idea what causes the quest menu bug. I made a workaround so the notification disappears much faster, so the chances of getting it should be quite low. If you do get it, if you could just wait a couple seconds before clicking the quest menu, the bug shouldn't come up.

Could you give me more information please. Did you start a new game? What were you doing at the time?
Your save file and/or traceback would also be really helpful.

I absolutely adore the MC and his interactions with his family. He isn't some dumb kid along for the ride, he is the driving force of the story and it is so refreshing.

At first I thought Kathy was going to be the stereotypical "bitchy sister", but their pool bonding shows a very strong relationship.

Tahlia is adorable but almost unbelievably naive in the age of the internet.

Alexia as the strong Mom who actually just wants to have someone to lean on is my kryptonite. I'll do whatever it takes to make that woman happy.

The banter and love that flows between MC and all of the girls is just perfect, imo, and makes for a very engaging story.
