One question, if I buy it through steam, the payment would be unique, I mean the other updates are not paid, because if so, it suits me for the price that makes steam to my region (Argentina) is much more profitable than paying in dollars.

I'd recommend you buy the game on Steam or Itch, it's a one off payment that you can do when you have the funds and then forget about it and you get all future content included with it until the game is complete

 

[pablo.1297]

thanks

 

[Remarius]

thanks

Yeah Steam gets its update at the same time as patreon etc. Its already on 15.6 compared to 15.5 here.

 

[Sheet420]

[Dessolos]

I'm a bit behind with the updates. Just downloaded the 15.5 and followed the instructions and put the file in my game folder. But when I launch the game I get an error.
Sorry about the bad pic but if anyone could shed some light that would be ace!

Never seen that before.

Did you start with a v.0.15.2 (you can only use update files to go from the previous latest update to the current one, can't go v.0.14.1 to v.0.15.5 for example) and was it an original version without any modifications (no mods, compressed version etc)? You need my official v.0.15.2 version to go to v.0.15.5 (or v.0.15.5 to go to v.0.15.6) else it will not work.

If you've got a much older version you can get the old update only files from my old Patreon/SubscribeStar posts and manually update one by one all the way to v.0.15.2, but it would probably be easier just to download the full v.0.15.5 update, your save files will not be affected by this if they are stored in the default location and you can still use them.

Otherwise if you did have v.0.15.2 a quick look on Lemmesoft (Ren'Py Forum) suggests that error is caused by a corrupt .rpyc file. You should be safe to delete your .rpyc files (NOT .RPY/.RPA) as, as far as I am aware, they automatically get created if they are missing when you try and launch the game from the .rpy files. So just clear the .rpyc files and then relaunch the game.

Yes I have the v.0.15.2 full game and was trying to update to v.0.15.5 prior to 15.6.
I will try out your recommendations tonight.

If you keep spamming the thread asking for it like you're doing it will come out faster

How do you guys juggle the multiple path saves? What I'm doing is doing one path and then transferring the saves to another folder when I want to do another path but it's kinda annoying. Is there an easier way to manage the multiple path saves?

I usually use the 1st save page as a hub for branching point, then I type each page that correspond with a specific path.

E.g. lets say Page 1 contains Steph, Ellie, and Vanessa branching points. Page 2-10 is Ellie path, Page 11-20 is Steph's, and Page 21-30 is Vanessa's.

I used to do that but you're gonna make more saves with each update and then you're gonna have to use up more pages for each path and then have to move the saves from each page which ends up being more annoying.

I pretty much do same as Samulyil Haidy But my method is somewhat different.
I save on Page 1 on every major choice and when I get a major branching choice related to different characters I do a save on current + Page 22. Reason for that is I save on every major choice so I pretty much cover saves till Page 4. I do this also So I remember that My first save between Page 1 to Page 21 will be of Steph, than my second page saves stretch from Page 22 to 33 for different character, than from 44 to 55, than my saves stretch in 11 slots at a same time which I use to save only MAJOR CHOICES OF THE CHARACTER OF WHICH THESE SAVE SLOTS BELONG TO.

I use this for every game I play and I never forget which character's these saves are and switching from branches is quit easy.
There are more than 69 save pages at least. Why not use them.

Increase save slots associated for each character branching than.
15 or 18 or 22 saves for each character are enough. I never ran out of them.
