As in what it says, are you running the correct versions for your system, eg 32/64.

Maybe go into settings and change from full screen.

The log file has information, like if it's rendering coreclty etc.

Nah. I was running it in the host machine with Windows 10. However, I have GPU partition in a VM I created using GPU-P as an experiment and it could possibly cause issues on the Host I think due to the GPU and driver being shared between the two. I have a dual boot with Ubuntu and booted into it. Then I started it in Steam with Proton as a non Steam game and it worked fine. I did use Sandboxie at first, but I also tried it without and had the same issue. I tried both the 64 and 32 bit versions. It's got to be something to do with my GPU, drivers, or Hyper-V with GPU-P.

Oh, okay, when you said Hyper-V thought you were in Windows VM messing about.

Running dual screens? Not sure why it lists your Screen Sizes twice at the bottom.

I mean if this what what it shows when you load the game have you actually tried hitting start or going into preferences and changing the screen size.

I switch between the full screen and windows screen, nothing worked. I restarted the game over and over again, nothing worked

Yes, but I see you have 2 screens in that screen shots, to both or are you hit load and showing the start screen and the laod screen? What happens when you click "START".

just to sure, with this new update, do I have to play the game from the very beginnering or should I be able to select the latest update starting off point
Click to expand...
If you have save files, you should be able to continue, if not from the beginning it is, but you can just go to settings and check unseen text then hit tab and quickly skip through the game.

There is s WT and gallery mod as well.

For the more tech savvy on here, just for talks sake, If I'm concerned about saftey, downloaded this updates exe files that possibly might be infected with anything, is it safer to extract the main game file to an external hard drive and run the game from there to protect my PC if there was a hidden rootkit or malware within these files or dose it not matter either way

It would not prevent an attack, unless it's really poorly coded. I never run VNs as a normal and trusted software. At least I run them in a sandbox (using Sandboxie). I also use a dedicated operating system for them (can be a separate PC or VM or SSD without access to other partitions or disks). I also would not trust an antivirus to detect a Python script made for a specific purpose a few hours or days before your download.

I suggest to have a dedicated operating system for porn that you won't use for anything else, without any shared password (even saved in the browser) where you can run not trusted software in a sandbox. It could also be in a Virtual Machine inside your main operating system. Drives are cheap even a slow 250GB/500GB/1TB SATA SSD is totally fine for Renpy VNs. Just don't give it access to your LAN. If you have a laptop, you can partition your drive if it's big enough (1TB at least so you can have 250GB for VNs). Partitions should be mutually exclusive (one should not be able to read, and write, the other).

What happens if you play start in the menu? Have you installed over an old partition? Because it seems it tries to load old saves. If the saves are old they could not be compatible.

Cheers for the help, If I save the download to an externel hardrive and run it from that, how do I "Just don't give it access to your LAN"?
Click to expand...
It depends on your operating system and firewall (you have to explicitly block the program or the folder), but simply running from an external drive won't change anything. A simple way to stay more secure is to run it using Sandboxie, in that way it cannot write anything outside its secured "sandbox". The sanbox then can be deleted any moment after you've played the VN (you'll have to export the saves outside the sandox if you want to keep them for future use).

Insanely good. Like, the best game on here good.

Just a really big shame Stoper seems to have trouble finding the motivation or creative inspiration to work on the game consistently and is more or less GRRM-lite.

What is GRRM?
