sorry if this questions been asked already but when i try to load a day 7 save while trying to play day 8 it crashes?
anything im doing wrong?
here man, read the spoiler(important on the first page)
As the Alpha and Beta players already saw, they were not able to use their Week 1 saves. That is because we completely reworked our save system to make the foundation for future seamless transitions between individual updates. But because, during Week 1, we couldn't test how it would behave with future updates, we only noticed during D8+9 that the save system doesn't completely work how we wanted it to. We wanted to set it up so that no matter when you save, you can load your saved data anywhere.
So, let's say you played Week 1 only up to Day 5 and then you saved, then you could load your save in D8+9 and anything that happened between Day 5 to the end of Week 1 would be simulated. In other words: If you didn't play after Day 5, the system would automatically make decisions so that you can play D8+9. If you fully played through Week 1, you would just load your Day 7 save and then all your decisions would carry over.
However, currently it turns out that we didn't get the saves to load properly. That means that we unfortunately had to simulate the entirety of Day 1 to Day 7. But since we are only at the beginning of Chapter 4 which consists of three parts (Day 8+9 = Part 1; Day 10+11 = Part 2; and Day 12-14 = Part 3 of Chapter 4), we are confident that we'll get the hang of the save issues during Chapter 4.
Unfortunately, the fact that old saves can't be loaded has got enormous implications that affect other features, too.
Thus we had to temporarily deactivate the Ecchi Image Gallery, the Ecchi Scene Gallery, the Ecchi Calendar, and the Ecchi Character Cards because it would all be as of Day 1 and a simulation of those things would delay the date of release by at least two weeks.
Still, you are able to play D8+9 without any problems. We did a lot of playtesting to get rid of bugs and typos. So the script is as fine as it can be.
We'll work hard to fix these problems as soon as possible.
