I have absolutely no idea what to do in the forest maze. Reading up in this thread there seem to be...audio clues, but either I don't hear them or I don't understand them. I disabled the music and have all other sounds at 20%, is that interfering with anything?
Follow the path with the flowers

For all of my non patrons, thank you for your patience. The new version is now available for all to download. Enjoy the new vampire path included and be sure to let me know what you think!

Also, if you do enjoy the game, please consider leaving a review of the game on the site. A few words and a star rating are more than enough and it helps the game's exposure tremendously. I'd like to share this game with as many as people as possible and the reviews help put more eyes on my project. If you would like to support this game without having to commit to becoming a patron, a review is more than appreciated!

Thank you all so much!

Glad to hear it's working:)

@mkrudesign I don't have a user at Vampyou, but I see you're still lurking here, so I'll just post it here. From looking at the screenshot the Mac user posted with that error, it got nothing to do with the Mac build itself. Seems like him, the game or his Mac is trying to create a folder for saves in a location that's write protected. I don't know a lot about Mac, but since Mac uses UNIX permissions, it's obvious to a Linux user what's going on. The error message even clearly states what's wrong ^^ If you use a local user that don't have ownership or write and write access to a location, it obviously won't be possible to create new files or folder in that location. If the user is unable to choose location of the saves, I guess he can manually create the folder in that exact location with an admin user (or with elevated rights) then give his normal user read&write permissions to that folder.

There's also a chance that his filesystem is corrupted, the OS has put a read-only attribute on that filesystem for some reason (could be a million reasons, hard to tell without having access) or that his disk is dying. You can tell the user to search up "Mac folder read-only filesystem" with his favorite search engine, and let him figure it out^^

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I know this is an older message, but I came here exactly because I have this same problem. The question is that this folder doesn't exist. I find it weird that the games looks for data at this /private folder (that is system protected) while it should actually look for (and save) inside ./Game.app/Contents/Resources/app.nw (the actual path where Game.app is).

You will notice that you have the same error if you try to enter the "configuration" section of the game.

Ok I just found out how to "solve it". There's probably something hard coded and you need to move the Game.app to your Applications folder. There it will work without any problems.

The changelog says "Five additional images added to photo gallery", but at the end of the vampire route I still have 32 pictures (completion 100%) from the previous version. Is it normal?
The additional images in the gallery will not appear if you are continuing using a save from a previous version. You can only get these new images by starting a new game or using one of the included save files and play from there.

When's the start point of the vampire route? Asking whether it makes sense to continue my current playthrough (first time forest maze + village at the moment) or start a new one when the trigger is right at the start.

It's a pity. My saves are practically complete and have way better statistics than the default ones, and to start again is a waste of time. I hope in the next version we will have a way to automatically update the gallery, such as the book in the Antiques, or maybe better default saves.
It's an issue with the Picture Gallery plugin. It creates a set amount of slots for pictures at the start of a fresh file, so even you play the newest version, there is no way to refresh the Picture Gallery so that it gets those 5 extra slots. There's nothing I can do about it unfortunately. I apologize.

You can start the vampire route after you complete the story with Viviene. Speak with the bald man in South Mor Town and follow his quest.

I see there is a vampire route that you start after Chapter 2. However:

Mila didnt kill the all Boos or friends, sper her life white go out from and give the friend Iris the good blood to cure her
There is apparently a way to save Iris? I feel like I've missed a bunch of stuff going through this game, is there a walkthrough somewhere?

No. Isn't possible. I Hate play as Vampire Hunter. The Dev don't care about Mila's friends. He/She care about make game over no vampire route in vampire hunter main story.
I Play only vampire route.

Both routes are ok and it comes to what a person prefers. Not being able to save someone from death or worse doesn't have to be a sign of bad dev skills. To build up certain events you have to put strikes on someones mental state (Mila) if you want to push them into a certain area of behavior. Explaining/showing it to the player shows, that you care about your project.

Ofc that's just speculation right now. We'll only know for sure until the vampire hunter route gets more content.

The game will probably never leave the game over route.
I play only Vampire Route. Becouse I love Vampires. I hate Vampires Hunters so much. Too bad. I suspects The deve is pro Vampires Hunters and he in love with Game Over so much.

Submissions for Round 4 of the user submitted contest are now closed. I will be reviewing submissions over the next two days and decide on 3 of them for you to vote for. The poll should be up in just a couple of days.

This week I began writing a full walkthrough of Crimson Veil 2.3! I've noticed a ton of people getting confused about where to go at certain points or how to get certain endings or images in their picture gallery. This guide will cover all of that. Everything from hidden items you may not have found to boss health and strategies, story, etc. I'm about half way through writing it, and I want to fit it with images and stuff to make it even easier to follow. Once it's done, it will be available for everyone to download for free.

I also want to mention that this past Tuesday, I finally hit my goal of reaching 100 Patrons. Thank you all so much for your support and as I promised, I gave a 4 weeks notice to my boss that I would be resigning from my current night job. I gave them more than the usual 2 weeks, since I'm not immediately starting a new job and I am in no hurry. My position isn't the easiest to find a replacement for. My coworkers and boss have been great to me all this time and I want this transition to go smoothly for them.

As of February 8, I am a free man. I want to introduce some positive change into my life before I jump back into the work force and live a little. Diet, exercise, getting to enjoy the sun for a change, that sort of thing. I'm going to be an uncle in about a month and a half and I'm am so excited to be able to be with my family once my nephew is born. There's plenty to look forward to so far this year and I'm feeling really happy. Let's keep this momentum up!

I just finished writing the entire walkthrough and man, what a project! The whole guide ended up being nearly 60 pages long with all of the pictures and text I included. I'm really proud with how the guide came out! It's easily labeled for you to jump to the section you want to read, collectible items are all in bold, locations of Pics for the gallery are highlighted, and overall, I think I did a quality job with this! I hope you like it!

While working on the guide, I did go back and fix some things in the game that were bothering me as well as some bugs that were reported to me after 2.3 was released. 2.3.1 is releasing alongside the walkthrough and the changelog is updated in the game folder if you want to see the specifics of what has changed. The links are up on my Patreon now for everyone to download!

I still haven't gotten the chance to read through all of the submissions sent to me for the contest, but I'm going to take a quick break and read through them all and decide by tonight. The poll should be up soon.

The guide is extremely useful and much appreciated. One thing I am wondering though that you did not seem to say anything about in the guide is the fight with Dorian himself. Is the fight with him unwinnable and once you go into the room with him you are locked to the vampire route? So the only way to not go on the vampire route is to completely ignore the Dealer's side quest? How do you get the Dawn Stone to upgrade your whip if not from the Dealer?
