What update in Episode was the one where you had the stuff with the photographer, forgot his name and Melanie? I might have forgot to rename the folder where i had the backup save. I´m almost certain i completed Episode 2 , my folder is from April´s 10.
Wasn´t Ep.2.2 v0.18 renamed 2.2 V3 and after it Episode 3 started with V4 and so forth?

You got the general idea right but the actual versioning wrong.

The versioning transition was a huge clusterf**k. Essentially...

  • Ep2 v0.16 was the last "Ep2" release.
  • Ep2.2 v0.17 is the equivalent of Ep3 v1, even though it was never named as that when it came out. At the same time, Ep2 v0.16 was renamed as Ep2.1 v0.16.
  • Ep2.2 v0.18 is the equivalent of Ep3 v2, but again it was never named as that when it came out.
  • What was supposed to be the next release, Ep2.2 v0.19, came out as Ep2.2 v3.
  • Finally, the current nomenclature of Ep3 v# began with Ep3 v4. At the same time, Ep2.1 was changed back to Ep2.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

That is indeed confusing as hell. So, the last version i played to the end, was the 2.2 v3, which means, it seems then that it´s the right point to start Episode 3 as it´s called, right? I loaded my save( and the journal updated with new stuf, where it was all green before (i had everything concluded), so, guess i´m good to go without issues?

Fashion Business FAQ (point 1.2.3)
Q: I think I missed some events in the game. Does the latest Ep3 version include all content of the game?
A: After you have finished playing Ep.1, you need to download Episode 2: New Life. It contains versions v1 - v16. Episode 3: Crossroads is a continuation of Episode 2. Version numbering in Ep.3 has been changed and it starts not from v17, as it was before, but from v1.
p.s.

This doesn´t help a bit. But since the last update i played was 2.2 V3, it seems it was the beginning of Chapter 3, which seems correct for continuing to the chapter 3 we have now

If the last version you play is Ep2.2 v0.17 (which is the equivalent of Ep3 v1) or later, you should be able to just continue with whatever the latest Ep3 version is.

That's enough if you read it carefully. The phrase from the FAQ I quoted above belongs to the DM personally, there's not a single word made up by me here.

The problem, it seems to me, is that the DM is first and foremost a programmer, while players for the most part are not. And here we have the case where what makes sense to some people requires additional explanation for others. ;)

OK, let's sort it out and apply logic. If in the previous sentence DM says that Episode 2: New Life. It contains versions v1 - v16. and then specifies that the numbering in Episode 3 has changed and it starts not from v17 but from v1, what does that say? Correct, that Episode 3 contains all the content from v17 from version 1 all the way up to the current version. The phrase about numbering means exactly that.)

If you know you've played Ep2.2. V3, do you need any further clarification to know that Ep2.2 v3 is included by default in Episode 3 v7? I think not. :)

Your list of name and version numbers is spot on. The only thing to add is that when episode 2.1 was renamed back to ep2 new life it wasn't just a rename. Ep2 new life had all the Bardie content removed. Thankfully the ep2.1 is still the version of episode 2 that is shared on this threads first page.

Hi guys, I have a problem with Biff, when I finish the photoshop or he calls me for the reports and I open the various scenes he gives me only the first two available and the others all disabled, I read that it could be a problem of the scrappy mod gallery (I don't remember having installed it or not, the fact is that by looking for it in the files it is not there) and someone had suggested to reinstall everything, which I did by reinstalling all the EP2 v16 1080 from the link here on the first post but, using the my own saves, the choices continue to be disabled, what can I do?
