For Lain's Mod you have to rename the "episode1.rpy" file in the "game\scripts\dialogue\dod" folder to "script.rpy" as the mod is outdated. Be advised this will break all the script updates in the GOG version of the game, but the Mod will work.

Update on my mod in progress...

Episode 7 is done, minigame guides functionality is working, just needs some UI images made up, cleanup and data entry and some final rounds of testing. Achievement and Ending guides the same. I've done my first pass at episode 8, need to test and bug fix any errors or sections I may have missed. I've been super busy with RL so I haven't had much time this past month, but I hope to spend more time on it next week. Sorry still no ETA.
What does it breaks exactly?

Sorry for the late reply. It doesn't really break anything major, at least that I've noticed, but it loses features that were added into the GOG version. Such as the scene gallery allowing you to select scene variations (dependent upon which variations you've previously seen). It'll also remove the relationship selection in the opening of the game (still available through preferences). It's possible it may break some other stuff under the hood as the Lewdlab team made several changes between the different versions of the game and this mod was made for v1.0. Oh and it'll also revert any dialog/image fixes they've made throughout the different versions as well... there are a few instances where wrong images are shown by mistake... such as Tracy not having her alt costume in one scene at breakfast, or her eyes being the wrong color in another scene (both fixed in GOG v1.0.3).

One weird bug that occurs in previous versions is that if you decompressed the image files and run the game the logo.mkv movie will throw an error because it's in a different location than what's in the games script.

This mod will revert the to the old location. If you like to decompress your games to view the images/videos and still want a working game...
Code:
Change line 2 in script.rpy in the mod from:
$ renpy.movie_cutscene("main/logo.mkv")

to:
$ renpy.movie_cutscene("images/main/logo.mkv")

This mod is outdated and won't work with Steams current version (1.0.2) without renaming files within the mod. Lewdlab team changed the filename of "episode1.rpy" to "script.rpy" in the "game\scripts\dialogue\dod" folder some time ago, you'll have to rename this file in the mod as well to get it to work. Note: if you don't rename this file the mod will only work starting from episode 2 onward.


As for my mod I've done some of the things on my list to completion (~40ish items remain). Hoping to work on a few items this week. Starting next week for two weeks I'm working doubles covering for someone's holidays then I'm off for a few weeks, fingers crossed I can get a shit-ton done over those few weeks. Still no ETA, sorry for those waiting.... I'll keep you guys posted.

Sorry but this mod is outdated. Read my previous post about renaming a file to get it to work on episode 1. Gallery has been updated a few times since this mod has come out as the game currently on here is version 1.0.3, the GOG release (Steam is still version 1.0.2), and the mod hasn't been updated since 1.0.0. I'm currently working on a Mod in my spare time for 1.0.3 but it's taking some time due to RL.

I'm down to 38 items on the list to completion.

Let's just hope that you can get everything done by Christmas or New Years.

Trying my friend... currently down to ~22 items remaining + testing. Would be done more but I had trouble with a previous item and it took me a little while to solve. Hoping to get it down to 10 by end of next week, I go back to work next Thursday.

I'm sure I'll find more minor bugs during final testing and polish. I'll update again once I cut this list in half. ;)
Thank you very much for your hardwork sir .. i hope soon will get to finish , thx

this is good. better to measure twice and cut once, than to scrap everything and do it all over again.
