Ren'Py Corrupted Academy [v0.426b] [BolHeX]

[nuqqur]

That would be quite the bug... I am not sure why that would be the case, I do know saves can get quite large when using a lot of mods but not 13MB big. If you can send me one of these large saves I could dig around in it and see if there is some data being saved that shouldn't.

This is one save file from a new playthrough with 0.311. No mods. Seems the log file in the save is the culprit, taking 57mb unpacked.

Actually I think it's not about the old saves at all, but it seems the log file written to a save is not cleared on loading? If you make save 1, load save 1 50 times in a row, then make save 2, then save 2 will be huge. At least when done on the initial admissions page.

Thanks, I will take a look at it tomorrow. Try get to the bottom of it.

If I am being honest it sounds like an issue with how objects are being updated, like it might be duplicating on each load... Very big problem if it is the case so I will need to fix it.

EDIT:

Yup seems like shoots are creating tons of duplicate copies...

Sorry if it's already been mentioned, but after I updated to the latest hotfix, it broke the game if I try to get new students and sleep. I've added the traceback below.

EDIT: I commented out the section of "File "game/scripts/main_classes/girl/class_girl_ren.py", line 770, in apply_temporary_stat_change" where it's a bunch of "if self" things were and it worked again, so I'm assuming when a mom is generated they have no motivation. I don't know anything about coding tho

If you get an error when generating girls like:

File "game/scripts/main_classes/shoot_base/class_shoot_item_ren.py", line 82, in get_display_name
return name.replace("_", " ").title()
AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'replace'

Replace the function in "/main_classes/shoot_base/class_shoot_item_ren.py" with the code below

def get_display_name(self):
    split_name = self.name.split("_", 1)
    if len(split_name) > 1:
        name = split_name[1]
    else:
        name = split_name[0]
    return name.replace("_", " ").title()

Days in school - it seems to start counting from when they submit the application, not when they start school.
How relevant is days in school anyway? My girls are always in school much longer than the mother's estimate.

 

[gvcxsaudvu]

is there any way to see videos for a specific girl and not generic content?

i downloaded some mods for the game, where do i put the shared photoshoots from the mods?

Sorry about that, fixed it on my end and will be in the next hotfix and you are correct that is exactly the issue. You can delete the two motivation lines if you feel brave until I hotfix it.

if self.motivation < self.base_motivation:
    self.motivation = self.base_motivation

        name = split_name[1]
    else:
        name = split_name[0]
    return name.replace("_", " ").title()

Thanks for the "fix" but this is actually more of an issue with incorrectly named photoshoot photos/videos. Likely caused by WTM mods that have been converted by scripts. I implemented your fix just to avoid errors but the mods are at fault since all should be named with an index and name i.e "1_photo.webp"

I do believe this has been fixed in the latest hotfix BUT I don't suggest download it right now. It seems to have a major game breaking bug that I am working on.

is there any way to see videos for a specific girl and not generic content?

Just make sure include generic videos is disable like this. Otherwise the girl likely just doesn't have a video for that action.

If a girl has a video it will play it over generic content by default.

i downloaded some mods for the game, where do i put the shared photoshoots from the mods?

They also go into "game/_mods".

Ok I have figured out the cause of the major save file bloat. Turns out it was caused by how renpy saves rollback information and how I was updating data on screens. I am going to release a bandaid fix for now but ultimately this is going to need me to go through and change A LOT of code to remedy the root cause.

EDIT:
Well I released a band-aid fix for the save bloat caused mainly by regenerating girls. I will need to do a very thorough rewrite of a lot of screens to fix the issue entirely...

It moved to the top to solve some people have issues where the quick menu blocks it(I think joiplay users).

I've noticed some duplicate file names in your file hierarchy, and I was wondering if there was a reason for it (or if they function differently). _shared_photoshoots, vids, girls, and mothers all show up in the game file, but also in the _mods file (I'm not sure if _shared_events, or _shared_videoshoots do or don't).

it supposed to be like that.. the ones in the mod folder are modded ones

Like GamerDaddy said this is intended. Just to try keep some structure for modders to use. The names don't really matter other than the folder containing the words "girl, mother, event or videoshoot" which are used to make sure the videos aren't added to the generic video pool. The "_shared" folder names don't really do anything just an obvious place for modders to add them.

OK, is the current hotfix still one you recommend not installing yet? 0.312b

I did it already, but the "Girl Ratings" thing on the PC triggers an exception...

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

  File "game/scripts/locations/settings/screen_girl_ratings_menu.rpy", line 10, in script
    python:
  File "game/scripts/locations/settings/screen_girl_ratings_menu.rpy", line 12, in <module>
    girl_rating = GirlRating(girl_config)

I loaded a earlier save and ran through one day of class without error, but the same exception came up when I went to the PC in the Office and tried to access "Girl Rating".

I do suggest updating to 0.312b as it fixes some of the save bloat issues.

That is just an oversight on my end when I removed that variable but it was also causing some unnecessary save game file size. It is a rather minor bug so it will be included in the next hotfix thanks for the report though.

Hey this is the coolest iteration of that base game so far, I liked it.
...Until it decided to rollback my only save-file for a couple of weeks (probably some bug with deleting 1st slot save several times, using a mix of delete icon and delete button, and writing a new one there, can't reproduce though). I'll attach mine just in case. Even the save-preview image doesn't match with the game state it loads.
But anyway, still nice job, thanks for making the game!

As a suggestion:
visiting several moms to promote corruption, every day, is a LOT of clicks...every day.
there probably should either be an automation button (PRESS "local neighborhood family-corruption run"-ends the day),
or
a 1 week cooldown (with x5 effect) on the action, so that plyers don't feel obligated to click every single day, just visit every mom once per week. Probably girls actions (at home) should follow this as well.

Good luck

(here's my messed up save)
