Ren'Py Holiday Island [v0.4.5.1] [darkhound1]

[lvertzn]

So I'm on mac and my game suddenly just stopped working, I can't even launch it anymore since the app crashes the moment i open it. Does anyone else have this issue or know about a solution?

Have you tried the game fix mentioned in the first post on page 1?

The first thing I tried was reinstalling the game so and now I can't find a save folder anymore

That does not answer Zapalbugs question.

The catch is, as described in the fix, that there are files in two folders involved.
The one under the user (appdata) would not be affected by a reinstall as it is not located together with the game.

As we are not in a release period, and the version is pretty stable, the only known reason why the game would suddenly stop working / refusing to start is the situation described in the fix.

Not Data Hi there, having been a bit frustrated myself with how needlessly convoluted Sara's quest has been so far (in one of my rare but - hopefully - constructive criticisms of our beloved content creator darkhound1 ), I'll try to offer you my two cents on your stuck point.

For me it has worked this way: before Sara can appear at the bar in her white shirt and blue jeans shorts attire (and with a pill in her system), you need to have met her in her red and black dress TWICE and have held her hand BOTH times. If the second times she sends you a naughty sms with a pink toy in it, you're on the right track.
The problem is that even if you've done all that, her attire is still randomized, so save your game before going to bed at the eve of your third saturday with her, save again in the morning, and then skip time until the bar opens: if she's in red and black, reload from before bed; if she's in white and blue, you can safely reload from the morning.

Hope this is clear and helpful enough.

Quick edit about love levels: at the begining of my second drinking night with Sara (the one that ended with an sms) her love was at 68, but it skyrocketed to 83 by the end of it (including the kiss). I'm not sure about what the precise requirements are, though.

 

[kuyakiki]

Does anyone know what is wrong, I can't seem to get the game to start at all. Is anyone else with a macbook having the same issue? I have tried installing the companion mod and it hasn't helped yet.

Quick edit about love levels: at the begining of my second drinking night with Sara (the one that ended with an sms) her love was at 68, but it skyrocketed to 83 by the end of it (including the kiss). I'm not sure about what the precise requirements are, though.

Thanks for your input. It was the most informative yet. I have met Sara at least four or five times in her red and black dress while holding her hand. So far, nothing has happened. I am guessing this is because her love level is too low. Apparently, I have not been interacting with her enough beforehand.

If her love level gets high enough, I predict she will take pill at night bar after hand holding which leads me to visit Joy and then Jennifer.

I am guessing this is because her love level is too low. Apparently, I have not been interacting with her enough beforehand.

If her love level gets high enough, I predict she will take pill at night bar after hand holding which leads me to visit Joy and then Jennifer.

Whether she takes the pill or not appears random so I used this approach:

1. Make a save before sleeping to start Friday
2. Make a separate save once you've slept
3. Head to somewhere you don't get random encounters (reception works well) and pass time until the night-bar opens
4. If Sara is in the outfit you're looking for, reload the save from the morning and play the day out.
5. If she wasn't, reload the save from before you slept and go to step 2

I like that the process of getting to know Sara is slowed down as it makes it feel more like you're developing a proper relationship there. However, I feel that the addition of RNG with that makes it too grindy. I think it would make more sense if you could ask her to change outfit or take the pill after the first time she does either would be better and fit in with how you get similar progression with the other ladies.

To my knowledge:
Alice: the 2 missing pictures aren't available yet
Yvette: I think you're missing the Yvette's sister pictures or some of them, I don't remember what triggers them
Jennifer: no idea, probablty not available yet

Yvette: I think you're missing the Yvette's sister pictures or some of them, I don't remember what triggers them
Jennifer: no idea, probablty not available yet

I have got 3 pics of her sister, 2 pics at pool, 4 pics with the blue lingerie, a pic with Yumiko's outfit and a pic with the 2nd night outfit
Those are the 11 pics that I got
How can I get the missing 3?

 

[Ascetic]

Ahmed Chester from your description and by comparing with the full set I have, you're missing one more picture of her sister (there are two of her in a pink dress, one in a blue bikini, and one with the same bikini where she jumps with Yvette) which should sooner or later trigger automatically, and two pictures of Yvette in her DARK blue lingerie: visit her late at night until she's wearing that and she will send two pictures as a reward for liking it.

If I'm not mistaken, you're missing 1 sister picture, 1 sexting (from one of her bar scene in white/pink dress) and one in her dark blue nightware.

Monsieur X I think that the one you called "white/pink dress" is what Ahmed Chester called "2nd night outfit", I'm pretty sure he's missing both dark blue lingerie ones (on top of one more sisterly love pic, of course).

TOP 10 THINGS NOTDATA WOULD LIKE TO SEE ON HOLIDAY ISLAND

First some caveats:

1) These are not criticisms. I love this game. I have tried other erotic games, but always come back here.

2) I admit many of these are not possible. Others will be unpopular ideas. In fact, I might be the only one here who likes some.

3) Some of these are repeats from a post I wrote a year or two ago. But I thought I would repeat them for newbies who missed them the first time around.

AND AWAY WE GO!

10) Hot tubs. They do exist on the island but never seem to be used (except Joy once in a photo). Wouldn't it be nice to spend some time in one with some of the girls? There is apparently one in MC's new room we never see. Some of the girls were seen with tubs in their rooms too. Maybe a long term plan to build one near the pool is possible too.

9) I'd like to see what happens if a girl actually gets DQd for flashing her boobs in the Wet T-Shirt contest. I've seen the same girl do it twice in one contest and gets away with it. Maybe they realize that Jennifer is a softie and would never follow through on the threat.

8) I'd like to see the girl actually give a new response if you tell them they look lost or worried. Was this feature ever used? Maybe it was early in the game and I forgot. Anyway, it could lead to a new quest.

7) Gelaxais beer! I like to try and work in a beer reference when I can ad nauseum. A nice cold beer would hit the spot at the night bar, the tiki bar, or the dinner table. Maybe if a new dinner date is created with one of the girls, it can be a casual one
watching a football game or something. Than beer drinking would be appropriate.

6) More on Miriam and Mercedes actually doing their job. The only example we've had so far is Miriam helping MC after hurting ankle. I have yet to see anybody needing CPR or something like that. And everybody is nice at the Night Bar. Who needs a security guard? There are no fights to stop. Nobody needs to get bounced.

5) I enjoyed the adventure with the lab when MC sprained ankle. I hope to see a similar adventure taking place is a new setting some day. Miriam gave us the teaser of Joy's yacht sailing nearby with more girls. Who wouldn't like to take a field trip on that yacht interacting with some new girls. Maybe MC can invite an island girl to join him. PS: I thought of this before learning of the lab return next update.

4) The ability to send texts to girls not on the island. Does our cell phone not work on the mainland? It would be interesting to see reactions. Which girls would get angry and rant about being sent home? And which girls would be touched that you are still thinking of them? The latter might have a story about what they are doing and even send a photo.

3) Usually, a gym shower is uneventful. If the girl showering sign is up, only bad things will happen if you try and go in. How about a scene if MC enters an empty gym shower, but a girl walks in later? It is not clear whether MC has to hang a sign before he goes in.

2) I'd like to see Renee expand her horizons and offer erotic massages too. After all, she is the go to girl for massage training. I'd like to think she has the know-how. Maybe she won't want to do it early in the game. But as her affection/love/lust stats increase, she may change her mind.

1) I'd like to see something new with my binoculars off the balcony in my room. Perhaps this time it can be a random surprise rather than a scheduled event. I ranked this one #1 since I believe it is the most feasible. And the possibilities are endless!

Well what do you think? Which of these do you think are good ideas? Which ones are lousy? Why or why not? I welcome both good and bad comments. I can take it.
