VN Ren'Py Eternum [v0.8.5 Public] [Caribdis]

[Dorfnutter]

But I don't know if that is applicable since it seems were on a time loop.

Remains to be seen if that's the case or if it's more of a reincarnation loop ala Planescape: Torment (or the Xeno series for that matter) or if Idriel and the Syndicate are the only ones "looping" due to their connection to a realm where the concept of time doesn't exist so they could essentially see past, present, and (possible) future(s) happening simultaneously while the rest of existence chugs along in normie time (kinda like the Lutece "twins" from Bioshock: Infinite).

Fuck you got me addicted..I WANT MORRREE...
How long till next update.

And i got a question.. like if i copy my save file and save it can i use it after deleting the game? I play on android

What do you mean by "use it", since you will no longer have a game to use it with?

On the Android version it ends on the 0.7 ending and tells me it will continue on 0.9?

That's weird. I also play on Android, and didn't have anything like that happen. Did you follow the correct procedure of downloading both the apk and the rpa file separately and then ensuring that the rpa was in the correct folder? You have to go through that annoying procedure because if the rpa was bunded into the apk as with most RenPy games, it would take the apk over the maximum allowable size.

Downloaded both, updated the Apk and then replaced the old .rpa.

You did ensure that you'd given the game permission to access files and media on your device? If so, then I'm out of ideas.

Permissions transfer on updates and I can see the 0.7 ending and the scenes from all my other saves before. So yes. It just ends where 0.8 should start.

Maybe your final 0.7 was made too late, after the cut-off point? Have your tried your immediately previous save to that instead, which hopefully won't involve redoing too much stuff?

 

[Arrenis]

When will this continue? Can't wait to find out the end of the story

The next update? Probably in like 7-8 months. The final update (so you can see the end of the story)? Probably some time in 2028.

Does this happen when starting from a save on the end screen of 0.7? Have you tried earlier saves or rolling back? Might be related to the following issue, where I encountered something that sounds exactly like what you described
Edit: also, which version exactly are you using? the issue I found was in 0.8, not sure if 0.8.5 fixes it or not

Something I found out from a few tests. The ending screen for 0.8 is coded like the one from 0.7, so any save made on the ending screen will act as if you had already reached it and end the game, sending you back to the main menu. Call it a bug or an error, shit happens. I originally replayed a bit, so I didn't even notice.
Starting from any earlier save or rolling back gave me no issues and I could play the update from that same downloaded version.
This is what happens when people download unfixed early access leaks instead of official releases and don't give it any additional thought.

Looks like an ad for Eternum Offtopic Thread

 

[DirtyMario]

Isn't that pretty much part of the whole game narrative? He mentions multiple times that he doesn't even feel up to the task but he keeps going because he has no choice

Feels like they're setting up some kind of Captain Planet arc ("by your powers combined...") for the final fight against Thanatos, especially with how badly he fucked Orion up this episode he will probably need support from all the LIs and the friends he made along the way. We all know President Stabb will come in and save the day at the last second.

On another note I personally want to thank Cari for the Alex scene in this update. Didn't have to be there but it was. Missed this girl so much. Thank you.

 

[Nizachen]

Is there any compressed version for Android? Although my phone can handle 6 Gb fine (probably), I don't want to risk it.

bad news for 32 bit users, Caribdis now uses Ren'Py 8.3.2.24090902 meaning this game is no more compatible with 32 bit computers. the last running version for 32 bit is ethernum 0.7.5
Renpy 8 sucks, it is not compatible with older saves., either.
i stil do not understand why the developpers change the renpy engine, during a game developpement. it bothers users, it is useless. they should change the renpy engine only if they make a new game.

Just curious how old is your computer?

I think you've a bigger problem if your PC got a CPU from pre 2004.

 

[DirtyMario]

I guess the bigger problem here is save file incompatibility for no obvious positive gain whatsoever. We'll all have to skip for about an hour once the next update is out.
There has to be something in it for devs though, he's not the first one that announced he'll switch.

 

[sexypeanut]

Devs changing engine versions are certainly because they get more and/or better functionalities. It's possible some of the stuff 0.8 has wasn't possible in previous Ren'Py versions.
