it's not that simple. SeeFAQ (1.5.2) for more details.
Thanks for the link! Unfortunately, it didn't really help me. I had unlocked the entire gallery in my old savegame, with multiple saves. But I reset my laptop and forgot to save it. But now when I use the developer's save game and load the end of Episode 2, not a single gallery is unlocked, hence my question, even if I had backed up my file, the gallery would still not have been unlocked

The gallery is unlocked by the corresponding entries in the persistent file (it's in the "saves" folder), not the save itself, even if it's a developer save file. So if your old persistent file is no longer available, you will need a new persistent file which will contain the appropriate entries for your playing style. (by "style" I mean different ep2 playthroughs, which can vary depending on the preferences of the individual player).

Theoretically, you could try searching for old versions of the scrappy mod that worked for Ep2 v16, and thus open those scenes that you have already passed before. Also, you can ask here for a persistence file that will work for you.

Thanks for your help! But I think it's better to play from the beginning again. I actually didn't feel like playing from the beginning anymore because it takes extremely long. And thanks for pointing out that you should play the Marcus route last in episode 2, because that's a perfect transition to episode 3, since you're free again.

just save before an important answer

i actually wanted to send you my persitent file
but i still missing some pics in it (but working on it )
so before i have finisied eps2 i don't upload it to anyone
and don't beg for it ( this applies to everyone )

so? i must pay to see bonus scenes ?
Not necessarily. Technically, all you have to do is wait for the next update, after which the bonus scenes from the previous update (v12) will be unlocked. (see FAQ 1.5.12) I don't know exactly how that will work yet, though.

When vimmers completes the epic walkthrough of Ep2 v16 in all 100500 ways, then DM himself will write a post here and ask to send him this magic persistent file. After all, even the developer doesn't have access to everything vimmers has gotten to over the years. :giggle:

I had already had everything unlocked.

One last question, I would still have.

Which "persistentf file" is important, the one in the folder "fashionbusiness1_renpy" or in the "save" folder?

Both persistent files are identical, but the save folder and all its contents should be seen as just an extra backup in case something happens to the main persistent file/saves (from fashionbusiness1_renpy).

fashionbusiness1_renpy
Just finished the first episode, in the bitch route. Since there is no gallery in the first episode, I didn't feel the need to try out all the choices.

Thank you, I did not know that it was a backup folder.

Can someone share save with persistent, for full unlocked gallery please
Kind of pointless for ep3 as the gallery hasn't enabled us to replay any scenes from the last 4 or 5 updates. You would still need to do it the old fashioned (business) way and actually play the game to see any scenes from those updates. Ep 2 would work if that's what you are after.

If I remember correctly, about ~ two+ months ago there was a post (probably by Ragnaroekr or >Era<) which said that the inability to play the scenes from the gallery (in case the player has honestly passed the last updates of the 3rd episode) is a bug and this information will be forwarded to DecentMonkey to fix this gallery bug. Correct me if I'm wrong.

greetings,
i have a question? because there's no substantial guide or walkthrough anywhere & the official guide doesn't cover that much! in episode 2 what are the consequences of whether Monica tells Claire the truth about her true identity or lie to her?
also there are a scene inside the gallery in house section where MC appeared to be getting smacked by the kid in the house how to unlock this scene?
