Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2024.08] [Tristim/LZ_Starbuck/Trollden]

Xaiti · Jul 12, 2023

Good thing somebody picked this up - Lab Rats 2 was one of those gams I kept coming back for every new release until it was seemingly abandoned without notice.
Wish you guys luck with the project.

Ok, as far as we can tell, either there is no write permission on save location or the path is too long. so make sure you have write permissions to the game/saves folder,

EDIT:: found an issue being worked on now, if want to verify immediately can install dev branch CODE versipn per the instructions recently poasted. Make sure it is dev branch.

Might have to run the source version on wine. and is that the entire trace file on the mac version, Should be a text file in the game directory.

how can i manage permission? There is definitely not too long path because it is not possible to make saves at all even after 1 min gameplay

how do I add serum I create into my inventory

kurosx · Jul 12, 2023

You have first to produce it (and don't sell all), then enter the production stockpile and transfer it into your inventory.

eldoen · Jul 12, 2023

any of the Mac folks able to check the source build,

No problem. Send the link to it and I'll try right away.

Just want to jump in and say a huge THANKS for picking this game up. always have a soft spot for this weird bloated mess of a game, and I look forward to how it continues to change (and hopefully grow in length, not just breadth) under y'alls direction. Keep it up!

Before I got your instructions I tried this, except the deleting all of the '.rpa' files except the one and it didn't work. Once I followed your instructions, I can save no problem.

This might fix the issue where you cannot load a save from the previous version. I at least had it working initially.
The devs changed a function name and removed some variables (i think) so the boobjob function had to be referred to the new function.
