I believe something is wrong with these "officially" compressed files. I'm not sure who compressed them but I'm getting inundated with folks that say the mod doesn't work with the compressed version. DoverUK25 or anyone else can shed some light on the origin of this "official" compressed so that I can collaborate with them to see what's broken. It's likely a packaging issue as that's what many newer folks that attempt compressing games mess up. I can all but guarantee that this "official compressed" wasn't even checked by the dev team as it likely has nothing but loose scripts in it and not the proper archived scripts (RPA extensions).

As far as I know the mod works dandy on uncompressed as that's where I got the v0.7b scripts from (please confirm DoverUK25).

Thanks in advance and regards.
Confirmed. The "official" compressed version is not retail packaged. The dev team likely has no idea (I all but guarantee it) they pushed out an inferior product listing. Whoever compressed the VN fucked up.

Cirelc DoverUK25 SonsOLiberty Please make note of this... someway or another all or a few of us will likely be involved in some facet going forward so it bears monitoring. Someone needs to tell the dev team that whoever they commissioned to perform this duty failed and it needs to be resolved for public consumption. That's my take but it's not my call.

What a mess this has all been.

SanchoMod Update (v0.7b Final)
View attachment 2604036
Go get you some.
( Simply click on the banner image above )

You folks make sure to thank DoverUK25 for hooking me up. He did us all a solid here. Thanks brother, sincerely.

Note: To be very clear - This mod update is installable in either v0.7a (making it v0.7b) or directly in v0.7b

Changlelog:
  • Incorporated the dev's fix (which I feel I recommended in the post linked above) for save exports.
  • Incorporated the latest grammatical and male MC naming bug fixes from the dev team.
  • Minor aesthetic tweaks as I felt necessary.
Please enjoy. Mod core is updated to the latest v7b with even more features. I hope you find at least one feature beneficial to your experience. Remember absolutely everything can be toggled on/off as desired and on the fly. Complete information and exhaustive previews can be found on the mod's thread (simply click the banner above). Regards and be well
SanchoNote

For folks using the current "official" compressed version of the VN (as of the date and time of this post), please see expanded installation instructions found in the mod's thread post here. I will remove those instructions once the dev team gets their shit together with whoever did that compression.

If Season 2 starts off on this rough road as well with lack of quality control and proper testing procedures, then we're all in for one hell of a ride of wasted time and bandwidth. Yes, I'm frustrated. I've personally come to expect a better retail product from this team than what has been v0.7's release from the start. It's like buying a brand new car only to have it keep getting recalls.

I'll grab a cup of coffee and settle down. Apologies for the mini-rant but I really want this VN to succeed and be an example for others. We have simply jumped off the tracks a bit lately. Let's get this house in order, shall we?

Mistress TessToday at 9:32 AM
Basic gameplan a lot of this week:
1) I am building up Episode 8 shell/structure and a short new intro with new renders (to explain loading 7 saves but also directly brand new players about Episodes 1-7)
2) Episode 7 walkthrough (always hard for me so usually have a little help here to make sure I don't spoil 8 stuff because for me it's all in my head already)
3) Asset hunting and outlining basic structure of Episode 8 (I use index cards to build scenes after some basic overall structure, aiming for 1500ish renders)
4) Looking at Steam applicability, creating account (I don't have one yet) and researching.
5) Poll ideas
6) Start hopefully the first two scenes of Episode 8 (writing/rendering a bit) if I can get to it, these two scenes were going to be in 7 possibly, but I decided to save them.

Sorry to hear people are having problems with the compressed. I only downloaded and re-uploaded the links to Mega, which I got from Tess Patron's page, and then gave my Mega links to Cirelc. They even messed up the Android

Please make note of this...
I'm using the unofficial compressed by SonsOLiberty and it works... (only the 7b scripts ending saves don't seem to be functional even after fresh install using your mod, but that's most likely due to my own limited expertise lol)

No bud, it's not your limited expertise... it's because SonsOLiberty knows how to properly package a compressed VN, but that version is pre-v0.7a so it won't work... you need either v0.7a or v0.7b for SanchoMod. I automatically convert any proper v0.7a to v0.7b within the mod so they are identical. That's the summary. It's not you, you are just using a "test" version of v0.7

A true gentleman and a scholar... or at the very least a pretty good dude. Thanks bud. We'll all help her get this mess finally cleaned up so we can properly move on to Season 2.

My only goal is to not have any of the playerbase lose trust in her product. She has proper support in some areas and not so much in others. She's a dom, it's about time she starts cracking that fucking whip.

Yeah, I noticed that too. But, this scene made me thing this poor guy needs some time in the gym. All that lower K-level stress has turned him to jello. Now that he's upper K levels let's get him some workout time and some biceps, pecs and abs!
Not sure if it is intentional but Tess wrote him as kind of lazy haven't you noticed how he's always sleeping in and doing basically only what's required of him? I think the cannon was the sub path and the dom path was less organic as it's not her thing for the male mc. I'm not complaining just stating my opinion. It's either that or there is reason she's written him this way... only time will tell.

Well, regarding: "... the dom path was less organic as it's not her thing for the male mc...."

I don't know about all the bud:

yeah but he's pretty lazy you have to admit and there are some traits missing imo. Like most A type personalities for the most part wake up early, live a very scheduled and disciplined life, and generally are in pretty good shape physically. Sleeping late and being woke up by someone else is kinda high school kid stuff. Just some minor nit picks however they generally aren't lazy people although mc just coming from jail and suffering the k program blah blah blah... idk just seems like the cannon is the sub route for him... I'm not saying the lewd scenes don't qualify or the whole management program he's in or whatever... it's a just a little off seeing as how much thought and effort went into all the females he just doesn't exactly fit the mould of an Alpha Dom, maybe he's only truly Dom in the bedroom idk... only tess could answer.

Tess replied to me that she would change the look of Kane (dom). And even shared a picture of what he would look like. But it's a secret, guys, I wasn't supposed to tell you about it. :KEK:

ok enough lulz :D I was talking about his traits as a person. I don't think he over all looks bad or anything I just meant his demeanor and all.

Please. MC looks like a complete pussy... and no way in hell he'd be getting that much pussy either. But, it's cartoon porn, not real life, so to hell with his dorky personality too. Just accept it for what it is... a fictional cartoon character, ain't it?
