Might I ask which link you downloaded it from?
Because the issue listed in the traceback.log happens in an older, bugged version and a cursory look at the NOPY PC link shows it's up to date, where you shouldn't have the error regarding the names.

That said, if you are starting a new game you can safely delete after_load.rpy/rpyc files from the game folder which is the cause of that error, since you don't need them.

Also, I took a look at your saves (thanks for providing them btw), and something is going very wrong in there. The scene you are thrown back into is the last scene the game thinks you have seen.

If you tried starting again, does this issue persist?
I used the MEGA link to download.

EDIT: So, I downloaded again using the NOPY link. I deleted the after_load.rpyc / rpy files. And ... it works. The back takes you back to the previous scene, and I can reload my save without having the problem of variables. thank you.

Just imagine if devs do listen for those pleas, and we got fluid-gender-no-gender-characters (non offensive, highly immersible and porn-correct), with flat chests and asses, large clits, tiny dicks...the only huge disproportional "distracting" thing could be the belly, either of prego kind, or just from too much beer...What would be the next complain then?
Who actually asked for all of that? Also, people are allowed to have their opinions
That said, Ain's tits will probably stay the same... she's just genetically blessed in a bimbo direction.... and we've gone back and forth enough with her looks (for other reasons that can be found abundantly discussed in this thread).
Yeah the thing is, the reason for the change didn't make sense anyway. If dev was so concerned about Ain's perceived age, he could have just made her taller. Instead, now she looks older than Shani and has boobs bigger and saggier than any other character :LOL:, it's just overkill IMO.
What I will however speak up about is that he should stick to his vision because the more popular the game becomes (and that's slowly building momentum, yay!), the more requests will pour in, often in opposite directions from one another. If he were to start listening to them, he'd end up spread too thin, and the characters would be jerked in too many different directions, both visually and conceptually.
Agree it wouldn't be possible to fulfill everyone's request. That being said, there's been many others with similar thoughts on Ain's comically huge boobs, so it wouldn't be just tending to a few opinions but perhaps a significant portion of players. Who knows though, maybe more people like her current boobs more.
Well said friend. It’s Z’s game. We all have ideas. I have shared mine with him. But the decision on the story is his and he is doing very well. I can’t wait to see what he does next.
Nobody's asking the dev to change his story. His story, theme, gameplay, and characters are perfect and unique, and the reason most of us love this game. Minor alterations to character design are quite common, especially in early stages of game development - besides, reverting back to Ain's old body would actually be more in line with the dev's original/intended vision.

I think the game is perfect as it is. I don't see why we have to cater to some opinions. If you want Ain's boobs to be smaller, I want them to remain as the dev intended. My opinion has the same gravity as yours. Spamming the forum with your opinion over and over and then claiming that many people think the same, is obviously not the case. Also, if you want your voice to have more gravitas, become a Patreon.

I'm not really into repeating myself and I've said my piece on the subject of Ain. Ultimately it's up to Z.

I do however want to point out that as much as we appreciate the patrons'... patronage, and I know Z really does, he has refused to take requests before and I think he will not change his mind in that regard. So yes, your voice would be louder, but not necessarily come with more convincing power. (don't let that stop you from joining the Patreon though, the man needs a new computer :D )

Opinions and suggestions are welcome as always, from patrons or fans alike. They foster debate and may bring new thoughts to Z's creative process if they actually bring new ideas and content to the discussion, plus we like the notion of having an open communication with people on the discord. It's always fun to read people's thoughts and hypotheses/flights of fancy on where the game will go next, or their elaborations on the characters' dispositions. (spoiler: plot-wise, when a chapter is released, we usually have already a fairly good idea of what content will go in the next one)
That said, the suggestions and opinions relayed will not have a direct effect on Z's decisions with regards to the game, in any of it's aspects, unless he specifically asks for opinions or puts out a poll, contribution notwithstanding.

Luckily, so far, I can gratefully say that most patrons, including (in fact, especially) the top tier ones, seem to accept this general disposition and Z's straightforwardness in this regard.

I really liked the game so far, I'm very excited to see how the female protagonist will be introduced!
Playing with a female protagonist in this dystopian world seems like a lot of fun!

This thread and forum exists to share opinions. That being said, it doesn't mean that developers need to listen. Nobody said that your opinion had less gravity than mine - in fact, I explicitly stated that "maybe more people like her current boobs more." How is it "obviously not the case" that many people think the same about Ain's boobs? Have you even read the thread? Literally many people have said the same :rolleyes:

Fair enough, I appreciate your taking the time to interact with us! To be clear, I think this is a fantastic game, and have faith that Z will continue producing great content

Well that is because people do not write about every little thing they like in a game. I like the breasts, but I do not go out to point it out. If every single person who liked them voiced it in the same way as people having an issue with it, we would probably have pages in the hundreds already.

The argument of: 5 people mentioned it here in this thread, which means it is an issue, is really skewered

This really isn't that big of a thing, but if you insist on belaboring the point...

That's great that you like her new boobs. However, whether you or other people chose to post about your preference for her new boobs doesn't change the fact that many people did share their dislike over the change. This was the entire point that milly wrongly stated was "obviously not the case," and that you are clearly not understanding either.

I'm going to assume you meant to say "skewed" in the strawman argument you made about "5 people." Just to help with the comprehension a little bit, I've re-posted what I had written previously:

"Agree it wouldn't be possible to fulfill everyone's request. That being said, there's been many others with similar thoughts on Ain's comically huge boobs, so it wouldn't be just tending to a few opinions but perhaps a significant portion of players. Who knows though, maybe more people like her current boobs more."

As you see, you and the other guy are actually the ones making assumptions about who and how many like what or not, and why they did or didn't share opinions. You chose not to point something out before, and now you have - this is how this works, ya? No need to get all worked up over people sharing their opinions about a game in a forum designed for people to share their opinions about games :rolleyes:

Well considering your walls of text, you are the one most worked up about the whole thing.

My main point was: people tend to yell about things they dislike, which makes it seem like a bigger issue than it is. On the other hand, almost noone goes out to say, I am okay with this and this and this and this...

Uh, well re-posting comments and taking the time to explain seemed like it would be helpful since certain people were misconstruing things

Yes, I understood your point, but your point didn't invalidate my point. Cynicaladm already did a good job of addressing shared opinions, there's really no need to keep going on about this...

the lesser, the better, id say
and if her "adventures" come as fully optional, that would be the best for my playthrough.
Have you played the current version? It isn't true female protag and the dev has shown no intention of making it that. It's more that eldest daughter is a significant part of MC's story, and some of her actions and choices will effect what MC has to deal with. It's minimal and doesn't make it feel like you are her; more like a cut scene with a few options to tee the storyline up the way you want it.
