Or you could just encode them as videos rather than image sequences. that would be far more effective than reinventing the wheel with layering and transparency, and would cut almost half the size off the game.
I'm gonna be honest here and say I don't know anything about video encoding. I just suggested the layering and transparency thingy because this past semester I took an image processing class :ROFLMAO:
Do you think it would be possible to do something like that (what you suggest) with the images that are already in the game? Or would you have to re render scenes and such?

Hog tie her, gag her, and hang her from the ceiling, making her watch all of the fun.

"Yes, I would like you to meet my new chandelier, Maria. She doesn't light up too brightly, at least not until I stuck a candle in her ass... Girls, make sure to pinch her tit or something as you walk passed."
To add insult to injury, have Foster-Sister Hana be a participant without her; Maria has so much history with her childhood companion, and I'm sure that included plenty of "what if" fantasy scenarios that she hasn't been able to act on... Yet! :sneaky:

Yeah, you just throw them into any video editor, or something like that, and off you go. The key is the encoding format. It is hard to beat the webm/webp format google is making now.

Perfect, though Hana is just there for research, you know. Trying to come up with ideas for the next sex scene can be a challenge sometimes. It's not like she wants to be involved in the sex or anything... :sneaky:

Pretty sure she would enjoy that to a point anyway. Even if she protests, she is building a bit of a submissive streak (assuming you work on that training), I think for her, the worst punishment would be orgasm denial.

The thing is, generally, Ren'py doesn't do well with actual video files. Most formats tend to hiccup on the loop, that is why most vn's don't use them. Not sure about webm, but it can be an issue for most audio formats too.
If you really want to get under her skin get her a chastity belt...now that I think about it I'm surprised no one else thought of that.

hey guys quick question here

do the animations get better as you play the game ? cause the reviews ive seen, everyone seems to be raving about them but they're really not that great... compared to other games. Just curious if it actually gets better later on

They're about as good as you can get with Honey Select. HS doesn't have the customization options that Daz does, I think.

Almost all animations are smooth, a few of them are only around 3 images.

I have Kali and Maria totally subs, adding Lin and Ashley and putting them all in belts... Think of 4 PMS-ing women on caffeine and nicotine withdrawals! :devilish: :oops: :eek:

To be fair, I did mention orgasm denial, you have to keep her from cumming somehow... :ROFLMAO:

You say that but I've played a lot of Renpy games with videos and they work fine. This is pretty much the only game I can think of that uses image sequences for smooth video, the only other ones that do that are like 3 fps.

I see it on most of them, but then I don't play many these days, and many are 2D, so it's been a while. Maybe Ren'py changed something, it used to be a big issue, but even BaDIK used pushes when it came out. I almost never see actual video, other than on RPGM... But then, like I said, don't have time for messing around and taking things apart lately.

The new update is great, but the wording on the Hana event is a little less than ideal. Maria calls the MC "polygamous" which isn't entirely accurate. That normally refers to marriage and can carry some negative associations. Going with "polyamorous" would be a much better choice. Particularly given how much the game focuses on you having actual relationships with all of the women.

Anyway to rewatch story events? Using Lain's mod and they don't seem to be in the gallery (like the cabin trip with Emma, Felicity, and Ashley?)

Don't think so sadly - only from older saves as far as i'm aware.
