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

[Bantry]

Can't say for sure about some of the errors people are experiencing, but it might have something to do with using unren.bat. As @darkhound1 pointed out in this post, https://f95zone.to/threads/holiday-island-v0-1-6-2-beta-darkhound1.3782/post-1893150 sometimes the files get read incorrectly. I suspect just trying to patch or install a bugfix after unren.bat has been run might cause some inadvertent errors. My solution, which I started doing a few updates ago, is to do a clean install each time an update or bugfix is released. Once that is done, I then run unren.bat. All you really need do is to make sure you have saved your 'saves' folder somewhere else so you can find it and insert it into the game folder again. May work, may not, but it is worth a try.

I want to love this game but the poker and the UI were bullshit, have they improved?

 

[prometheusrising]

Adding the 16.2 patch to the compressed version of 16.0 is a no-go for me, which is understandable but I think worth mentioning. Crashes or freezes on initial program execution.

The patch is for what purpose?

Inside you find the folder named "game". Copy the content of zip file into the "autorun" folder from above.

PS, since no one bothers to check the links, here is the bug fix list:

• Random crashes with "Out of memory". Probably either a memory leak, or too high settings for caches. Haven't been able to reproduce it --> no fix yet (you could try changing the renpy renderer to directx or software - open the game and use shift + g, change the renderer, press "quit" and restart the game)
  If you invite Heather to the bar from her room and then play Hotshots, you can't visit her room an hour later since she's not in the list again --> fixed with 0.1.6.2
• Yvette's dinner appointment didn't count as a "sex" action --> fixed with 0.1.6.2
• Last picture of the "guess who" mini game could not be send --> fixed with 0.1.6.2
• Some errors in the save game updater that prevented very old save games from loading --> fixed with 0.1.6.2
• Crash with "NameError: name 'jessica' is not defined" when starting a new game --> fixed with 0.1.6.2

The patch fixes some bugs and other problems of the new update 1.0.6 beta that was released some days ago ; you can read all details in the post of the Dev

Great Update! oh well i cant get a hotspot with Lovely Aly..need some with Fouth nightwear. how?

 

[Panda135]

so i accidentally deleted the game thinking i was getting rid of a diff one, and i lost my save files... anyone have a save file i can use of recent updates?



tl;dr: need a save file plz

 

[Crosaith.]

Art looks nice, but free roam + grinding makes me hesitant to give this game a shot. So, I got some questions. Dun dun dun...

Are any of the characters routes completed? If none are, will any be completed within the next few updates? Is there, will there be endings.. or is this one of those harem sandbox games where ya "gotta catch em all"? Are the sex scenes hot and worth the grind?

 

[Blodgharm]

Best game ever, thank you.

*sigh*

A couple hundred save files, you mean, since one would do you little good . . . Here's a link @Puppet Master posted earlier this week to a collection of saves:

Or, you can ask @jikorde for the link to his most recent posting of all his save files--I'm not sure which page it's on, and I wasn't having any luck finding it, but I'm sure he knows. (For that matter, he might post the updated collection five minutes from now.)

 

[Philip Screwdriver]

Hi, did you already start the event in an older version and upgraded to 0.1.6.2 in the middle of it?
I have no other explanation for the error and no way of fixing it.

@darkhound1, that was indeed the problem. I'm good now. Thanks.

Are any of the characters routes completed? Nope
If none are, will any be completed within the next few updates? Unlikely
Is there, will there be endings.. or is this one of those harem sandbox games where ya "gotta catch em all"? Unknown
Are the sex scenes hot and worth the grind? This thread is about the game, so people here will say yes.

The most important things to know I guess is that the game is huge in terms of renders and videos (It has 5000+ renders and videos, or about 3800 if counting the major things) so it gives some rather odds results when compared to others, ex. other games would be version 10+ Directors Cut, GOTY, Enhanced, Skyrim modded at that amount of renders.

So the v0.1.6.2 should be viewed as a reflection of huge project + Darkhound tending towards conversative in terms of incrementing version number.

Yvette, Heather, Faye, Eva, Jessica and Amy + Alice will come closest to what is understood as complete in other games, having most content and events.
So picking them will give the best impression.

The rest, well, unren.bat, looks at the images, animations & try it, since that is a matter of taste.

Start will be slow though, game picks up from week to week, around week 2 most things are active and around week 4-5 it has reached "normal" pace with a full island, fair amount of resources and story bits coming in.

Here's my crunched version.

Image/audio/video quality is reduced to make shit smaller. This is not a perfect process and sometimes can break a game. You've been warned so no bitching.

are you playing on windows if yes have you tried the C:\Users\yYOUR USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\RenPy

 

[bleach4613]

Did you try the Shopping App on your phone? I don't use them as I find the cheat code listed in the Guide more reliable and a faster way to ensure I win every time.

I dont have a shopping app on it. Do I have to reach a certain point? I tried inputting the cheats but not inputting them correctly i guess so have to grind. Also how do u increase Jennifer's points since you can't use the regular conversations options?

The shop app is added after some times spend on the island ( don't remember, maybe a week or 2 ).
For the special characters like Jennifer, use gifts, be nice (no flash me your boobs at first meet) or cheat (which I do). I think the quests involving the special characters are not linked to their love/affection status but the flash/grope/etc stuff is.

 

[Cândido Faísca]

Any1 has a full..ish save? I've played until the previous version but I reinstalled my computer and lost all saves from all games.

Much apreciated.

Appreciate the detailed reply. I was hoping for more yeses, but it is what is. I'll keep those 7 girls you mentioned in mind if I give this game a go.

@Puppet Master Thanks for sending me a FAQ.

 

[CookieMonster69]

Ask the girl to flash or let you grope her. It's in the intimate actions.

Thanks for the reply!

@bleach4613

I added this to my FAQ and attached the new version. Unfortunately I haven't fully updated my FAQ to 1.6.x yet, so some things are still missing. SPOILERS!:

14) How do I increase the stats for Jennifer, Yumiko and Joy?
Using Wilson's Nemod to cheat may be your best option, since you have to treat the three special girls differently from the others. Unlike the other girls, you can't talk to these girls to increase their affection. In the gym, you can do the intimate actions (gift, hug, kiss, grope and flash) with Jennifer. In the bar, you can do the intimate actions with Jennifer or Yumiko when they are working. However, since the girl's affection starts at zero, you'll have to raise it somehow before she will let you get intimate with her. Compliment each girl at the bar while she is working. Click the bar button or click on the girl to talk to her and choose compliment. You'll need a high charm to impress her, so maybe have one whiskey first. (This will temporarily increase your charm and endurance, but two will decrease everything.) Another way to change their stats is to buy some small candies from the phone shopping app when it becomes available and give each girl a gift. This will raise their affection. Later, give them roses which will raise their love. Jennifer has more options in the gym. If you listen to her explain the pecs workout, her lust will go up. If you get distracted by looking at her face while weightlifting, her affection and love will go up, if she passes an affection/love check. Once their affection hits 50, you can use the intimate actions to raise everything normally. Remember, at last call, your looks count with these girls, so buy some hair gel and beauty cream from the shopping app so that you can get the special scenes even if the girls fail their affection/love check. Use the hair gel to temporarily increase your looks, and use the beauty cream regularly to get an increase in looks on Sundays. Once the girls are affectionate enough, you can play poker with them to increase their favor when you win.
Joy cannot really be increased yet. Her initial meetings with you give you some increase in her affection, but not much. It doesn't matter since you don't interact with her that much; so, you really are going to need to cheat her stats if you are a completionist, but be careful not to bork the game. You'll also need to cheat in order to see the measurements of the special girls. However, there is a plan in the works for a quest to find out their measurements, so stay tuned.

Good Luck!
