yeah i can guess it takes some effort to move save files. And speedrun takes time too.If you own it on Steam yet never played it on there but have played the non-Steam version... then yes, you'd be starting from scratch. There's a detailed writeup on the mod's OP that describes the process of swapping saves/persistents back and forth but it's a cumbersome process for average folks tbh... that's not an insult... feel free to do what you wish but that is the real answer to your question.
To clarify what I may be facing:There may be (most likely) some rollback issues with some or many old saves. The version of RenPy got bumped from 7.4.11 to 8.0.3 and devs that have done this in the past on the same (on going) VN usually create rollback issues since they don't roll the rpyc files correctly and they end up getting rebuilt by R8 which moves the save/load pointers. Just know it's a possible thing.
Still confirming some other details...
... well, there's even more to it since the persistent has to be rebuilt due to the cheevo index it contains. Again, it's best to think of them as two separate VN's, really. I've helped dozens upon dozens of folks with version swapping and it's a bit of a chore... but it is doable.yeah i can guess it takes some effort to move save files. And speedrun takes time too.
i'd rather wait a couple hours.
I hope it's a couple hours instead of 24+lol
Well, no, not "borked" saves per se. There will likely be rollback issues which I can help sort. I will know in a few more minutes... I'm still sorting some things so give me a bit and I'll return and give you a solid reply bud.To clarify what I may be facing:
Is this an accurate assessment of what you've said (I also took into account subsequent posts concerning Steam, which I'm not on)? How high is the likelihood of borkage? Or is that something you're getting your brain around as you update and test your mod?
- I first played this AVN beginning with the last release.
- I used Sancho Mod for the playthrough.
- Dev has moved to an updated RenPy engine as of this update.
- Because of issues when moving up mid-game, my saves may be borked, but at the moment, that isn't a foregone conclusion.
Thanks.
I was editing my post when you started your reply. Still essentially the same, but might provide clarity for others when you get to your final assessment of the situation.Well, no, not "borked" saves per se.

Just make it good enough to get hosted in the Steam Workshop, so we can mod thr game just by launching it.Well, no, not "borked" saves per se.

I wasn't expecting a RenPy jump from v7 to v8 so I've a bit of work to do but quickly got the base mod in but without the scripts... give me a bit and I can find out what is what on saves.I was editing my post when you started your reply.

You won't get any from me, not playing till the mod is readyOk I'm blocking everyone who's in Steam right now, NO F'N SPOILERS 'til I get my copy off Itch.io....
Gawd...damn! I.... can hardly believe my eyes... I may have excellent news.I was editing my post when you started your reply. Still essentially the same, but might provide clarity for others when you get to your final assessment of the situation.

$ bool030 == True
Stoya confirmed it and it will be corrected in 0.8a with all the other bugfixes.Stone Fox Studios / Kentyrr
Bug Report (Steam version, likely patreon too)
Chapter 2, choice "It's in the past" you have:$ bool030 == True
That obviously won't set. It was not like this in preceding updates.. no idea why it's fucked up now. I'll let you know as I find others.
