Ren'Py Corrupted Academy [v0.527] [BolHeX]

[WonderDog]

I found what is causing videos to not work in my game.

There has been issues where I have had inconsistent problems with videos sometimes not working.

In Win 11 if there is no active sound device the videos do not appear.

I have multiple audio devices - USB, Bluetooth and the HDMI from the video and if none are active when the game is started there will be no video. Sometimes when I start the computer I forget to turn on the speakers or headphones and I have the HDMI output disabled.

You can test this by disabling all sound devices in the windows settings.

There is actually an error in the log files when there is no audio device present.

Audio and video init failed. Proceeding anyway.
Traceback (most recent call last):

The behavior behind how girls get the clothes for the school uniform before class gives the girl new clothes rather than relying on their own clothes, unless they already do have that piece. It might be working as intended sometimes with the stealing from the locker room.

Stealing clothes before class definitely works. If you steal a uniform shirt, for example, the girl will attend class in a t-shirt or similar, and generate a rule break.

I am subbed to this guy. But I hate to say it. The updates are now quarterly.
This is a repeating pattern on this site.
not a good sign

It's fixed! Along with a few videos that got named wrong.

The modder site which allows upload and updating is up and working. Its now a matter of populating it so the testers have something to test with and double checking the mod manage in game to make sure changing the backend didn't break anything with it.

I am expecting a discord test build soon but it will be limited to supporters and modders. There are likely a few edge cases I need them to help find.

This system should allow Android users to mod their game, it worked in the prototypes but I haven't been testing along the way so an Android version might take a while after the release.

EDIT:

Actually working with the new system, it gets the info from the online database and can download them from it. I need to do some stress testing just to make sure the most list stuff didn't break but its looking good so far.

Would a row for girl rating fit on there?

 

[davemanster]

I can help test if you would like.

 

[abdlfun]

Any advice on how to fix this?

I've been ignoring it, hasn't caused me any issues except the popup on game loading. NG+ didn't fix it so seems benign and not an actual loop.

 

[BolHeX]

It would, I will think about adding a rating based on the given content in the breakdown.

I can help test if you would like.

I will message you once I have it in a more or less bug free state.

Any advice on how to fix this?

Ignoring it I guess, I am not sure why renpy keep flagging stuff as possible infinite loops.

I can't understand how the uniforms work. How do I forbid to wear panties? No matter what I do but it continues to show "no rules break"

You need to pass certain rules to allow "banning" a clothing type. Its the icon with the red strike through it.

In other news the 0.5 test build is on going with some users. There are still a few issues mainly with mod packs, once those are sorted the actual early access will start.

Install somewhere closer to your drive root i.e "C:/Games" the error happens when the file paths are too long.

Everything is fine, the mod manager stuff is just complicated with a lot of backend work.
I had to create a website with a database for the mod info, connect it to cloud servers to host the mod files. Then the ingame interface to handle it all. Such as downloading, installing, uninstalling, updating, cancelling downloads all of which needed a queue system to keep track of. It also needs to handle all of that for mod packs which has been the biggest headache since it can be a dozen or more mods which could be in several states such as: downloaded(possibly outdated), installed(possibly outdated), downloading, installing etc.

Just so many little edge cases, below is just some of the things I need to go through to make sure the mod packs are working.

I also had to change file hosting mid way through development since the original didn't allow presigned URLS so modders wouldn't be able to upload and update on their own.

way more complicated than I understand most coding i've done is a little editing with twine gave up on idea of making my own game! glad to hear you are working hard, thank you for all the hard work!!!

 

[BolHeX]

Took a bit of a step back, rather than trying to debug mod packs in the game I isolated the functions and wrote tests for it.
I think I have all the cases tested and working. With that I am going to expand the users testing the 0.5 release to check if its actually working in game. If it is working release should be close, excluding the 1 week early access.

 

[Jigglypuff Dragonslayer]

What exactly is the mod manager? Explain in terms someone who knows nothing about programming can understand.
We will still be able to add mods by copy/pasting files into the game folder, right?
