I'm going to have to agree with you on that one. Such a personal event probably should've stayed personal. Still my favorite tho.Should have ended with a handholding event instead being party crashed by the fairies.
Download Lains mod, she added a cheat to change routes.There may have been a reply to this already but lord knows how many dozens or hundreds of pages back it would be.
I'd love some way to reverse my decision on the Slave/Romance Routes with the three elves. Their Slave routes are getting much attention. Their romance routes, not so much. So give those of us who made the mistake of thinking they'd develope equally a chance to reverse course please
If you download the walkthrough mod there is an option to change routes.There may have been a reply to this already but lord knows how many dozens or hundreds of pages back it would be.

It's just an achievement right now.Is there any advantage to acquiring the "Lustful" trait? Even in the future, I would like to know if it is worth unlocking it.

Sprites are smaller, but depending on how they are used, don't always look at good and are limited as to their use. Scenes like where someone is just standing/sitting around, it could help, but it would be a huge undertaking to redo it all. It saves space, because you can reuse the same background shots, but you don't get proper interaction with the scene, no shadows, the lighting will be wrong, that kind of thing.For the future only the dev could answer your question. I believe it is like most of the other states, nice to have and shorted the time between release but don't really change a thing - with some named exceptions.
From technical point of view image overlay come to my mind, but how practical this is I don't know. Yet I think it would reduce the overall size.
It serves no purpose now, other than bragging rights. That said, the entire lust system is new, and will certainly be expanded in the future, assuming that it is popular. We are just starting to see where it could lead, and what potential it could have.Is there any advantage to acquiring the "Lustful" trait?

The only problem I see with the system at the moment is that I find the best lust scenes are the ones that happen at the level 6 mark. Even though the level 9 scenes are "controlled" by the girl, I'd like to see them expanded somehow kinda like how the 6 ones are.It serves no purpose now, other than bragging rights.

You're not alone. I'm somewhat curious about the scenes/dialogue but I can't even bring myself to start the route. The thought of giving them a literal sanctuary from all the garbage they've been through (brief as it may be for them because human lifespan), only to end up doing a complete 180º and treating them just like everyone else always leaves a bad taste in my mouth.I tried the slave routes and I didn't like them. I would rather wait until runey adds content to the love routes. It doesn't feel right to try to help them finding a way to end slavery and then enslave them.
I agree. For me, the main point of unlocking the ***Lustful*** trait, was so that I could finally do the level 6 events and not feel guilty. I still think that if we got a 'point' of Lustful every time any of those events occur is the way to fix that, and it would put it more in line with the other similar events. This way, if you wait until 9 points, you get 3 tics in the Lustful meter, which would be the same as if you did the 3 point event 3 times. It would make the whole system less grindy too.The only problem I see with the system at the moment is that I find the best lust scenes are the ones that happen at the level 6 mark.

Yup, me three. Even if I feel like they both deserve some punishment for the way they treated me, but I also want to show them that not all humans are assholes. lolYou're not alone.

You're right. Image overlays is no silver bullet and sometimes create more problems than it solve. And it needs a lot of time to do them right.Sprites are smaller, but depending on how they are used, don't always look at good and are limited as to their use. Scenes like where someone is just standing/sitting around, it could help, but it would be a huge undertaking to redo it all. It saves space, because you can reuse the same background shots, but you don't get proper interaction with the scene, no shadows, the lighting will be wrong, that kind of thing.
You do not want to use a sprite along with a fully rendered scene, that would really look bad, but just having them talking to you would not be hard, just don't show them.
Another issue, is that not everyone progresses everyone at the same rate, and their reactions would be dependent upon their own training level. It would be a lot of work to set up.
If you are talking about converting images to lower quality, that can be automated, but if you mean reworking all the scenes that could be, and making sprites and all that, no, that would have to be done manually.You're right. Image overlays is no silver bullet and sometimes create more problems than it solve. And it needs a lot of time to do them right.
Still even if all the image would been normal created, diff images, like what all the video codec do would also help. Although I would not propose this as this would need a lot of work. Most likely it could be, at least to some degree automated, but it would most likely need a complet overhaul of the game. I would rather download the 70 GB or what it is in the futurer than download a slight smaller full game and know that Runey would have taken hours that could been speed elsewhere. It would only make sense that someone other than Runey would do that and give the whole setup than back to Runey - and don't even look at me, I'm not the droid you looking for.
Simple saying I have no idea how to do an automatic compare of two image and find similar ones. And this for over 16 thousend would mean a hell lot of compares (more than 5.118753666 E+60319), so some variante of pre sort would be necessary....
No, I'm definitively not the droid you looking for.
So, Runey, any news for this Android dilemma? One aspect that come to my mind is one my mobil I have an map app and offline maps. The app itself is only 158 MB yet my offline maps are 30 GB.
Don't give Maria any ideas. The last thing we need is her going around to all of the girls and increasing their lust levels behind our backs. Many of us wouldn't survive.If i could add one thing to the game it would be more of maria edging lin or maybe other residents. Twas hotter then the hot springs.
No, I don't mean either of them. As I said manually work at this current status the game is a workload no one is willing to take.If you are talking about converting images to lower quality, that can be automated, but if you mean reworking all the scenes that could be, and making sprites and all that, no, that would have to be done manually.
Or Google change something and allow for bigger apps, yet I'm sure this will only delay inevitable. Thus I think the only solution that would work, even long term, is to split the programm and the data.As for the Android version, before long, it will have to either be broken up, or they will need a serious reduction in the quality and size of the images, like the crunched versions people make. It is going to be a big problem one of these days soon. Makes me glad I don't use my phone for porn and I have a PC in my room. XD
No, Maria wouldn't do that, I'm sure, at least not alone.Don't give Maria any ideas. The last thing we need is her going around to all of the girls and increasing their lust levels behind our backs. Many of us wouldn't survive.

I think something like this could be done to significantly reduce the game size in terms of optimizing animations. With a simple(ish) python script you could compare the frames of a particular animation, and get which areas of the images remain unchanged throughout. You could filter those areas from every frame (except the first one, so you can use it as background) and make them transparent.No, I don't mean either of them. As I said manually work at this current status the game is a workload no one is willing to take.
And is is obviously that you can only shrink a image to some degree, before we could switch back to 8bit pixel art.
What I mean is to automaticly comb through all over 16000 images and indexing between "I-frames" and "P-frames" as every video codec do it. (You must be registered to see the links)
So you diff between two similar images and insted of e.g. have 10 "I-images" have 1 "I-image" and 9 "P-image". Could be automated, I'm certained here, but as stated a pre sorting would be needed othwise you compare every image to all the others ones...
Also I don't mean sprite, I mean layers (You must be registered to see the links) although I think we both have mean the same.
