I followed the solution (clean renpy reset) suggested by Acanthite & it worked.

With that solved, I'm enjoying my time going through the game reading it again.
And I have 2 questions:

1) Would you consider adding a Dossier profile for Judge Hilde?
I think I saw you say to someone in your discord (not me lol but someone mentioned it on this thread) that Hilde is also one of MC's LIs.
And granted June/Dizzy/Rose also got Dossier profiles (despite not being part of SOS Nu), personally I'd love to see Hilde get a profile and updates in it like others.

2) Going through early sections of the game where Blume explains Empress & the Three Houses' power balance, will the MC and his SOS Nu eventually get to the point where they meet the Empress and the explore the Imperial Core (which iirc, is the Empire's principle central hub)?
I'm asking this cause I remember you saying before the game is somewhat halfway done from completion, & I'd love to see other territories and have the squad do some exploration, not to mention meet the Empire's higher-ups.
For my part, I would second the idea of item 2. And, if not in this game, I'd love to see a future game explore other aspects of the universe, preferably continuing with the MC and (hopefully) at least some of the characters from SOS Nu.

Yeah, if not in this game perhaps in Episode 2/Season 2.

Personally, I'd love for the MC & his team to visit the imperial core.
Also places like territories of the Three Houses Utica, Aspis, Galienna and explore those lands also (for instance, Geter IV is Blanche's favorite place in Aspis due to its sushi restaurant).
Not to mention Three houses head ponchos & politics.
Lots of goldmine potential in world building.

Though I guess it would all depend on Gallant Trombe, given we don't know his plans for future of this game.

We need pregnancy and lactation in this, since we have harem.

View attachment 5552724
Yeah, even though I personally enjoy those fetishes, it makes literally no sense to have that in this game. They are on a dangerous overall mission... so let's make it more complicated and impossible to complete by adding babies and heavier breasts? Um... wut?
I'm not interested in lactation, pregnancy I like but only when it's done right.
And honestly, more often than not with pregnancy most devs make the most common mistake of it just becoming a numbers game (get LI "X" pregnant, then all the rest of the LIs fall in line and get pregnant one by one, like a stack of dominoes :HideThePain: )
Basically the whole affair becomes incredibly tedious; for me pregnancy only works when it's a surprise, and isn't bunched together (hence drastically reducing that predictability).

As for whether it makes to have sense in this game or not, well I guess there is a precedent with Tales from the Unending Void (but honestly, pregnancy in that game, I find to be handled pretty poorly, despite the fact I like the characters and the lore), yet I'd rather not have a repeat of that scenario.

Besides, dev said previously (think 3 years ago) in one of his past posts that if pregnancy happens, it will most likely happen at end of the game.
And that actually makes sense (and I'm fine with this, honestly). Caribdis did that with Once in a Lifetime too; with the LIs getting pregnant in the ending.
So, unless Gallant Trombe changed his mind about that we'll probably see LIs pregnant by the time we reach the definitive ending to The Officer's story (though I hope that ending is stil long time away).

Yeah, if it's at the end it's fine. And while I like both of those fetishes, I don't need them in a VN to enjoy it. Usually, though, when someone asks for pregnancy in a game, they want it earlier so they can bang the LI while she's carrying. That's why I said I felt it was ridiculous for this game. I mean, I guess I assumed, but the vast majority of the time when I see someone asking for it, it's meant to be in the story for awhile so the pregnant LIs can be interacted with for several updates. I don't think that makes sense in this — unless the LIs are only carrying for a couple weeks or a month before the game ends. Doing that, though, sort of defeats the point of the fetish for many; women don't start showing typically until much later.

Thanks .. What is the directory to change the file?
All renpy saves are usually inside AppData\Roaming\RenPy, just search for the variable %AppData% if you don't know how to find it, once inside you should see the folders indicated in that post.

For my instructions in https://f95zone.to/threads/color-of-my-sound-ch-4a-gallant-trombe.95142/post-18977427, you need to put the dev-mode enable file in the GAME folder, not the saves folder.

Code:
<games folder>\ColorOfMySound\ColorOfMySound-Chapter4.A.1-pc\game
You'll know you are in the right place if there are files named "Ch1.rpa", "Ch2.rpa", etc.

good evening, it's impossible to ignore Sofia in the game, she climbs everywhere, the harem has a chaotic character, even if you try to follow the line of loneliness, I ignored everyone except Dizzy, so I really liked her, unlike the girls from the team with whom the hero works, and yes, I would like to know if pregnancy will appear in the game someday

Did you mean Safiya? I think you can avoid her route but she is part of the team so she's not going to disappear from the story.

good morning, I have a question, will there ever be a choice in the game not to help Safiya with her mission? She's just not a very pleasant character. I've already played the game twice and I want to refuse her help every time, but the hero decides to help her even though it seems the players have to decide whether to help her or not

Just got done with replay of the game; now all the Dossiers and Glossaries are filled to max once again.

And....... again, are my placings of favorite female characters;

Mireille (aka Miri) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hilde >>>>>>> Blume >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> literally all other female characters.

Though Gallant Trombe I'm guessing the characters Blume, Polina (Team's medical doctor), Tsubame (Count's daughter) are all non LIs, while Hilde is?
Or am I mistaken?

I'm actually fine with platonic relationship with some female characters, like Polina & Tsubame.
But damn, I'm ngl, I kinda digging the relationship growth/closeness forming between MC & Tsubame and wish to root them as one of LI relationships (even though it seems pretty much impossible given Blume is never physically present and is always far away supporting through implant) :HideThePain::HideThePain:

But yeah, started to dig Hilde a lot in the last couple of playthroughs.
Her design looks awesome (kinda curious as to whether other Judges look as HOT, too :KEK:) and her chemistry with MC is great.

Having said that, Miri definitely remains the Queen of this game (for me)!
Design, personality, action, seduction/flirting, chemistry & loyalty to MC, backstory. general dialogue.
Girl, you are simply

I definitely wouldn't mind replaying this from the beginning. My only concern is if we start toggling where versions posted on this site are from. If one release we get the Steam version, the next we get the Patreon version, and it keeps going back and forth, I don't think I'd want to restart with every new release. If all future versions here will be from Steam, that would be best.

how to play this game on mac? i downloaded it and tried to open it but it says not able to open the app
Have you checked if you have permissions? Just check and enable for the app in Privacy & Security settings.

And if you haven't I'd also try to redownload from a different source, other than that I don't think the mac app needs anything additional to play.

Some characters are confirmed LIs, others are not, for the suspense, that's all. There's not much more to it than that.
