-cut for brevity-
I miss the time when I was bughunting your game, on the other hand I absolutely loathe Discord, so I'm just going with what I can scrape of the internet.

First things first: applying patch 5Test hotfix 3 caused me no shortage of problems.
For some reason my rpgmaker refuses to play with webp, and desires Png instead. (Cue me renaming all four thousand something files to png)
yes, now i got the preloader working, now to just replace the missing tilesets of void_a2 and A3 with A1 (may look shitty, but i don't have those files for some reason)
so yes, I load into game, and find out that I'm missing huds, those are custom made and won't make a difference between me trying to trick it. So i trick it anyway,
Main menu doesn't look so hot for me either, and since I do not know the dimensions of bar6backA.png, my bughunting stops here.
final score 3/9- i got through main menu with scraps of code and powershell fuckery, maybe my saves from version 4.00, or 4.12, and 4.52 aren't compatible, but at this point, any reported bug from my side could be caused by my fuckery to keep the game at least a little stable.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I also had a hard time getting the hotfix 3 to work, but it ended up being because I was applying the hotfix 3 to V4 instead of V5. You seem more techsavvy than I am so that might not be your issue, but make sure you download both the V5 without hotfixes and the hotfix, apply the hotfix to V5 and then transfer your old save if you want it to work.

What version of the game did you patch with the hotfix v3? Hotfix V3 is supposed to be working only with a base V5 Test version. V5 Test version uses .png and won't recognize .webp. Additionally, you cannot use both .webp and .png version of the game at the same time. By the the description of the journey you had it seems you patched the V4.53 compressed version with V5 test hotfix 3 which does not include any of the images that are used by it, these are only found in Base V5 Test version. Hope that helps with raising that measly 3/9 to something better if you decide to give it a go :D

Guys, there is nothing difficult about setting up V5 Test apart from downloading the thing.Here is how it goes:
  1. get base V5 Test
  2. get the hotfix v3
  3. follow the instructions inside the hotfix archive
  4. *IMPORTANT* read the patreon post that was leaked with base V5 Test (This answers at least 50% of the questions you may come across while playing the test version and will save you some time with the tips on how to access new content)
  5. ???
  6. profit

    PS. Old saves do work with V5 Test.

1. get base V5 Test

How did I manage to fuck it up so hard? ON STEP FUCKING ONE?
Note to self:
  1. V5 = V5TEST
  2. V5 =/= V5 Gameplay test
and I was wondering why is V5 a hotfixlike bullshit.
well, away I go, but not before I wave my entitlement stick and say you should name your leaked files better and less confusingly, it almost feels like you didn't want us to get the leaked paid version or something. </sarcasm>

well I'll report once I get the thing running.
You just keep on being the cool dude alright? Cheers!

Ps: just to make it seem like i'm actually doing something instead of re-learning how to play the game have this QOL report on the basement:
1: the alchemy set keeps the player locked after closing the window for up to 3 seconds (dependant on how fast you skip the text)
More will come in another post

List of potential problems

QOL:
1: There is a single unaccessable tile behind the inn, three blocks to the left from the entrance to the inn and seven to the north
2: when opening locked doors, it asks me if i want to use lockpick, sure. when I'm opening a chest, it asks for chest key, no such thing in my inventory, but my lockpick count decreases once i open it
3: Clearwater tower to the top left is solid object, except for the battlements on top
4: Clearwater GTFO event of "No permit get lost" is not activated if you go from the entrance to the left, then up once you hit the treestump, go left, and then hug the wall.
5:Scattered castle, the map where you meet desyne for first time, once you go through the wall to the right, the crack directly below you is solid, don't step on crack or it breaks your mother's back, speaking of cracks, the same problem is to the room to the left in the west wing, (one down from desyne, and then to the left) right in front of the mirror.
5.1: dunno if intended, but the crack in the wall in the same room on the bottom, the one that leads to the hidden spellbook is inaccessible, unless im missing something.
Bugs:
1: after disabling and enabling the nemesis system, the mob I've previously known as Mother Ludmila (fairy vixen) was unmarked, and was set as a level 15 fairy vixen, no star above her, no nothing indicating that the nemesis system wasn't fully reset, only after trying to finish her off have I got the "You're filled with doubt about striking her" So she still registers as nemesis even though her name did not show it, she still fails to get a star and a name after respawning
2: Dryad managed to heal from a plant I defeated the previous round
3: (re-testing needed) Slime in the forest to the right of the inn did call reinforcements with every round it took, no matter what move it did, but only the first one, after defeating it, no more reinforcements came.
3.1: re-tested: did not occur second time, nor the third time, probably bugged save-transfer
4: you can trigger clearwater guards blocking the way repeatedly and they move out of the way from their current position. tested after leaving pistorius' tower, also the guy on the battlements is still "No permit, no entry" even though I canonnically got the permit from the elder.
5: once you get over the sleepiness in the dreamwalker fight, every successive sleep attempt ends with you waking up immediately, even when taking the worst possible choice
6: (deleted, manual mode surrender is obviously not implemented for desyne and night fairy, possibly more)
7: Unless i missed something Shyaris's dices where she says lets go 20% when you roll 1, the total amount of score goes to 100, not 50, I may have missed that in the text since its four in the morning already, but it deserves a honorable mention
8: night fairy was unable to kill me by stomping in surrender, might've been high level but it seems like she's doing percentual damage and leaves me at 1hp.
Misspellings:
1:I have recieved some "hole water" from the angel after deciding to leave. I'd rather have the holy one, thankyouverymuch
Inconsistency:
1: once you take all the event silver from the mines, and return, there are two stacks that you cannot pick up, since we're picking silver for the what'sherface to make silver bombs, we should be able to pick those two too


eh, that should do it for today.
