I asked thrice but no one has provided it yet. But I don't think any scenes are cut from the compressed version. It's just heavily compressed so it would loose some quality.
You might be surprised how little quality is lost due to compression. When I was making my mod, I started compressing my images for my releases and managed to cut the download size by about 90% and I couldn't tell any difference at all between the compressed and uncompressed images. You can configure the compression for webm. I'm not sure what point you start to see noticeable degradation but from what I could tell you'd have to compress it by more than 90%.
Actually, nothing is cut out. The compression came from converting MP4 files to WEBM. They look exactly the same, it's just a more efficient file format. When I first released I was using GIFs, so it was even bigger while having no additional quality.

Oh, ok. you might be right as I don't know much about compression. Thank you for the info.
Thank you for answering. So we can assume that the files in OP links are official files. Is that correct? I'm asking this because many unofficial compressions had glitches in the past (i.e. for other games). I just don't want to play for long time and find unknown glitches making hard to play game. anyway peace if that's not the case here.
Surprised nobody has posted this here yet. I saw it coming, but it's still disappointing to hear. No other game on this site has ever impressed me in terms of story and humor before. The writing was superb and will be dearly missed.
I appreciate you for being honest and not taking the opportunity to milk us for as long as possible, Old Dirty Dog. If you ever do decide to pick the project up again, I'll resubscribe in a heartbeat.
It is what it is and I hope for the best for the Dev.
Have you tried WebP? I haven't done a comparison but I suspect it would make for even smaller files at the exact same quality (and yes, it's an image format, but it supports animation like GIF – except it allows for better quality with much smaller filesize).
It's definitely more work than some people might think making a real porn game. You don't have to render anything, but you do still have to find videos, edit the videos to cut them into smaller chunks that fit whatever you're trying to do, convert them to the right format for whatever engine you're using, compress them if needed, and then try and twist your storyline into a pretzel that fits what's happening in the videos you've found instead of just writing the story you want and then producing visuals that fit. Best of luck.
I've been working on my own real porn game, mostly to motivate myself to actually write the code for some of my ideas and play test them without having to upgrade my computer to something that can render at a reasonable speed. It's definitely a lot of work.

Thanks. I followed your advice and found that the cheat given on top of this page "snakeisland" doesn't work on 0.39 but works for 0.40.
