VN Ren'Py Karlsson's Gambit [v0.8.1 Part I] [Grym Gudinna Games]

[YuNobi1]

i waited this whole time to play, if only i knew this before i play the dom route i was under the impression the test version was inconplete

Apparently there were some added variables in the code that required a replay anyway. Since the Sub is Tess' favorite, long ago she decided to work on that last for each update (for motivation purposes), but she wasn't quite finished when she hit her self-imposed deadline.

I play the dom route and for some reason the scenes become more and more vanilla for me. did I lock myself out of the kink content?

Keep in mind that this is approx. just 1/3 of a normal update (episode) and that episode includes the Gameshow, so "da kinks are a comin'", but I can see where you're coming from if you play GoodDom like I do (EvilDom... there ain't nothing "vanilla" about THAT in this update. Yeesh!) GoodDom should have a BJ, a "romp" while a male slave works, (a bath?), be flirted with... that's all I recall.

Yeah it seems I'm stuck on the "good" Dom route. The interactions are mostly "You're so strong and powerful, let me suck your dick" which gets boring.
How do I switch to evil?

 

[Rocket007!]

Can anyone help me how to open the v 8 game. I have already extracted the file but the game is not opening.

 

[Mr. Chatty]

Just caught another ditzy Kane moment



Elena: Your mother felt your life was in danger as a result of a grudge between Alexander and your father.



Not even an hour later



Olivia: Alexander Karlsson is my father.

Kane: Is he my father
too?

And I heard somebody saying this has a good writing lol

Use the Sancho Mod and/or the official walkthrough. Links in the OP. If you don't go into details and nuances (there's a walkthrough for that) - just act like a scumbag, and your Kane's evil points will grow like on yeast. And yes, if you plan to go far as a Dom, it's worth remembering that your Kane and Olivia should share a common moral compass (if Kane is evil, Olivia should be evil, same goes for Good K and O). Of course, no one is stopping you from making an evil Kane and a good Olivia (or vice versa), but these will slow your progression upwards.

 

[Maviarab]

They also speak in the present tense of someone who has already died. But that's normal, a place this crazy must be destroying your brain bit by bit.

They all do about Callista, but as we know...and they know...she isn't dead...is she? That's why they correct themselves but Kaneyboy doesn't know.

There is no real kink on the dom path....good or evil.

As one saying goes, "it would be funny if it wasn't so sad". Anyway, if it's not a joke and Elena really does say such a phrase (I wonder in which scene), then it's definitely worth writing Tess about it, because it seems more like an accidental mistake by Tess herself, rather than the inconsideration of Kane that we sometimes see.

To play devil's advocate again:

While Kane can be very dumb at time, nothing Elena said actually suggests nor confirms anything. They could have been married, fell out, Alexander gets a grudge...Callista leaves.

For Miles, you just think it's dumb cos we know all the info and Kane keeps missing information (though he is increasingly thinking to himself why did someone say that), but in this instance, there is nothing wrong with the dialogue as it neither confirms nor denies anything regarding whether or not Alexander is his father or not. To also be fair to Kane as an individual, everyone around him talks in riddles, uses misdirection, withholds information and keeps telling him, be patient, when the time is right.

Hello. Sorry to Ask but each time i open the game the settings restart. (Fullscreen/Window, names of page1 ... and i can't skip a scene already seen before). Anyone Can help me to keep the settings each time I open the game ? Thanks

You're right... I wrote about it here once before too. We misunderstand Kane by judging his level of knowledge of what's going on around him based on our own level...And then we accuse him of stupidity...But I'll say more (and I think I won't be wrong) - most of the players who didn't come to our thread, didn't participate in the discussion and didn't get into the details and nuances of the game, simply won't notice anything funny/unusual in the fact that Kane didn't turn out to be Sherlock Holmes and didn't unravel the whole tangle by a couple of hints and reservations of the characters...And what is obvious for some, can be completely unobvious for others.

Ehhh I'm no Ren'py expert at all...and a quick google doesn't help either but I would have thought Ren'py saved all those kind of settings in the persistant file in AppData *shrugs*

if no one here can tell you might be worth asking over in General Troubleshooting as this isn't so much a problem with KG but with Ren'py. Do other VN's save these general settings or not? I'd be temptefd to delete the persistant file and then restart the game, change settings, save and then load up again to see if they stay set.

However, a completely new version like this just had (a new season effectively) you will need to reset them all again. Should only need doing once though, I've not had any issues.

Thank you for your answer. I will try to Ask there. I've got this problem only for KG and another one. For all the other games it works perfectly.

 

[Bulletproof 2301]

Android version please

Hmmm...weird one. Do let us know though if you manage to find out, be useful information to store in the back of the head in case anyone else ever asks.

 

[Maviarab]

Please release the Android version anyone, can't wait to play

Please leak the Android version

Android version please

Dude...stop fecking spamming. If it was available, it would be in the OP! Constantly spamming isn't going to get it you any quicker, in fact, I'd imagine quite the opposite.

[drisarter]

Ideas... yeah, I have one in particular.


It has nothing to do with the mod, but likely has everything to do with what VN version you are running (modded or not doesn't matter). Hoboy, see posts here and here... confirm you DL'd and playing on v0.7b of the VN.

Edit: Note - it's physically impossible to get to Tess's final scene without viewing and processing the export Mask screen in v0.7b, that's why confirmation is paramount to discovering first and why I'm asking.

I'm sorry for being a pain, as I can seen that you've fielded a lot of questions about this already (and know you get a lot all the time about a lot of things). But I'm having a version of the problem this user had (the option to create a named save for export to 0.8 doesn't appear, and I'm playing on mac) except that 1) I absolutely am playing on v0.7b when I attempt the export, and 2) after the screens where the export save option should appear but doesn't, I then get this error:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "game/KGS1_export.rpy", line 723, in <module>
TypeError: '>=' not supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'int'

If I ignore that error (which I suspect is/ ought to be the page where the export option appears?) it then takes me through to Tess's final message thing. Do you (or does anyone else?) have any idea of the cause, or how to fix it? I've read through all the suggestions I've been able to find but am starting to worry I may have to replay from the very beginning (which, even with skipping, I really don't want to have to do at this stage).

It just doesn't open...at all? Can you give us some more information on exactly what is happening? System? Tried redownloading the zip in case was corrupted?

Assuming you are indeed on v0.7b, please standby... allow me time to open the project and review your specific issue for analysis and a recommendation...

Edit: drisarter You are indeed on v0.7b. The issue you are having is the export code conditional seeking how many open (non used) export save slots are available:

    ...
    if gamePass == 1 and not mp1_2.gamePass >= 2: # Sancho: see post note below for more info
    ...

What I'm having difficulty thinking of is why in the world on Mac would the MultiPersistent data file creation would result in a "nonetype" error... it's as if you have write protections in place and the initial MultiPersistent file cannot be created and therefore the open slots not existing at all.

Post Note: For clarity on what the conditional is doing (see my "Sancho" note in the above code snippet): this initial portion of the conditional is seeking if the first save slot is used or not and if it is used to go to the next part of the conditional, and if it is open (unused) then proceed with the commands under this portion of the conditional. Your error is saying that the first slot (named "mp1_2.gamePass" for this purpose) is nonexistent.

Are you running the VN directly on the Mac or via a VM (virtual machine)?
