Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.19.1] [Runey]

Help I am stuck in the 30 level of Maria, the guide says that you have to buy Nia and be in your room at noon but nothing happen.

The Search button is your friend.
Go to your account, then go to "preferences", then set your search preferences as "most recent".
Next, perform a search. I ran a search using the words "Maria" and "30". That'll quickly show you that Slazies encountered that very same problem. Both TheDevian and torresm provided solutions.

that is insane, Skyrim is 14gb, how have we gotten to a point where porn games are 100+gb?

You have to remember that Skyrim does not have to make new images every time you go back to a location, it reuses the same stuff. This game has to make a new picture for every frame, so it's not really a fair comparison.

Nice, beat me to it... thanks.

Wait Skyrims only 14gb???. (Checks skyrim folder.)
Nope but if i added 14gb to it it would be a 1Tb folder.
Ohh I guess i do have a porn game almost over 100gb.
I doubt a renpy game will ever get as big as my skyrim!.
Unless i was running runeys uncompressed version of HH... Maybe?.
I mean how big is HH as an uncompressed renpy folder?.
Excluding the honey select and mods he needs to make the game.
Because I'm pretty sure when he said his folder was 90ish Gb,
He meant the folder that has all that in it to make HH and anything else for HH he was working on.

Was 150gig for BG3 so far.

But yeah, this game, uncompressed, before he converts the pngs to webps is over 100gig. I am sure his HS folder is a lot bigger. I have only the base mods for HS and my folder is 243 gig, where as Runey has a ton of custom stuff (I know, I made a lot of it). As an example, my Daz library folder is almost 2.5tb.

Wiped all of my saves and started over from scratch. Enjoyed the new intro, but holy fuck I had forgotten how much the hotel floor labels irked me. The ground floor is the first floor, but here you go up the stairs from the lobby to the first floor, and it low-key kinda drives me nuts.

Sanity is overrated.

And how much of that 14gb is compressed audio? Default vanilla textures weren't ever super stellar in the game and when they did the special edition they just upscaled them, so not much changed quality wise. While I'm sure there's a solid amount of textures there plus the models, I'm willing to bet a good junk of the size is in the audio.

EDIT: after missing offtopic.

Most of Harem hotel data is in 1080p image files. All those costumes and image loop animations add up and game has some space wasters like empty Kali's room or raw png images used in scenes.

You lost your bet.

To be fair, I was talking about Skyrim's file structure / compression, not HH. I'd prolly still lose the bet since I only vaguely know the average texture size and can only napkin math it, zero idea how much audio is in Skyrim

It's a British/Europe vs. US thing, whether there's a "ground floor" or just floor 1.

My layout issue is the fact that all three levels (visually) only have a single up stair...

Or how many unnecessary clicks it takes to go to/from the Sanctuary or Hot Springs/Garden

Still love it though <3

If Runey keeps up the quality of his content as high as he always has he's perfectly welcome to this entire SSD. I love this game, I loved it when it was much smaller, and I think that everything thats been added is pure bonus! I'm currently about halfway through my 4th annual play, and I'm inclined to gush. I expected new content, but I never expected this level of plot and character developement from this genre. IMO this game is the No Man's Sky of "door knocker" fap games, just engoodened every which way.

Ironically enough, if I remember correctly, the vast majority of Skyrim's install footprint is bespoke audio. Much in the same way HH required unique screenshots for every event that quickly balloons the footprint, likewise Skyrim's biggest source of unique assets that cannot just be copy-pasted all throughout the world (like rocks and trees) is the hours upon hours of dialogue audio.

To be fair, Kali's empty room is a single image, and would account for very little of the games size.
Outfits are a different issue, but then, if we did not have outfit options, there would be people screaming for outfit options, which does play a larger part in the file size of the game.
Overall though, the events in the game are by far the biggest reason for the file size. The game has a lot of side content, most of which helps establish the characters and their personalities.
A lot of people really enjoy that, and how it builds not just our understanding of the characters, but of the world that they live in, in general.
So, taking out that content, is really not an option, because Harem Hotel would not be as good as it is, without that content.
Harem Hotel is not like most of the visual novels on F95.
It is a detailed story that just happens to have sex and harem content, and bare bones minimum game play to it.
No grinding, and no searching around rooms for things to click on.
Nothing more than a few simple riddles with answers that can be found on Google.
Think of it as the naughty version of War and Peace.

Guys, I was checking my other saves and I found one save where there is a character I've never seen. "Cira" I don't know how to get it or how I get that character before. The images that I'm uploading is from an old save I have and I don't know how that character get there.

Part of Maria's story.

Skyrim Vanilla has low density graphics, meaning less memory needed to hold the textures. If you download the HD Texture Mods, you'll see that balloon.

On a game note, I think the Android(I named her Arya) has her daughter out doing part time jobs. Been seeing her in random YT videos like this;

That is a different model, maybe it's Archon's kid.

I think third elf in sanctuary is from Nia story. Depends on path taken. MC buys her or Nia brings her.

That's Peni, the one on the left.

Yeah, I think the blonde elf in the blue dress is brought to the Sanctuary by Nia, she appears in Maria's storyline where she and the MC infiltrate an auction for her.
