KK's lighting system blows harder than otoha on a good day, but there are ways to mitigate that, shaders are one step of having something that you can work with, try to apply such shaders to the environment,models, etc, then don't just use the normal lights those suck ass.
Does anyone else have a problem getting URM to work? Is there some sort of anti-URM code I have to get rid of in order to get it to activate? I'm supposed to be able to just drop the URM file in the same folder as the game.exe right?
Oh, no it doesn't go in the same folder as the .exe, it should go in the 'game' folder.

Not the game.exe. Drop your URM.rpa file inside the folder labeled 'game' (where all the audio and stuff is).

That quote from Maya in the early event someone posted earlier is really bothering me.
'It is simply the way things work around here"... it's simply the way things work that all the girls end up lustful and aggressively pursuing Sensei? That REALLY sounds like a porn game, doesn't it? I admit, it makes me feel a bit foolish in retrospect to have described how difficult it was to be engaged with 0.46's developments, because I can easily imagine a Selebus figure going 'haha, it's only NOW you question the agency of the heroines and whether they are being unnaturally compelled to lust for Sensei?" or what have you. I mean, at various points I was aware of this line, and at various points I have identified seemingly unnatural behavior (indeed, even considering LiL's shockingly slow pacing, Chapter 1 has blisteringly fast developments with various heroines like Chika), so it's not like 0.46 was the first time I ever questioned it, but it did feel to cross a line. Maybe it didn't, though. Perhaps it was foolish to ever assume a time with unchallenged agency for every heroine.
I'm not necessarily going anywhere with this. The line is just bothering me. I feel a very strong sensation of being played for a fool, yet that surely is not the case. Like, I can't imagine Selebus would dedicate 4 years and counting to depicting stories of characters acting unnaturally in ways we should persistently question or disbelieve. I mean, it would be a very epic twist 3 years down the line, and people who have followed the story for 1 to 7 years would surely have their minds fucking blown if the dark route completely challenges their conception of the heroines and romances they have religiously followed up to that point, but it would feel totally staggering to do that I think. Like to commit so fucking hard for the bit. DDLC was fucking six hours long. Totono was like fucking 15. Nobody has committed 200-300 hours to this fucking bit. No way.
I wonder if Maya is from a different game.
I've read these early Maya scenes around 5 to 6 times. That's not to brag; it's just kind of happened, and if anything it points to the fallibility of my memory that their contents remain only loosely in my mind at any given moment. This also includes reading the initial versions pre-rework (they totally suck BTW, good job improving your writing Selebus, almost nobody but me seems to acknowledge this so I'll take the time to emphasize the staggering difference in writing quality between the original version and the rework - might be worth writing a post dedicated to this later). Regardless, it is only now that I connect this line to the events of the most recent update.

Speaking of URM, I swear when I used it before, it required me to add some file in order to actually be able to open the interface in game. Am I remembering wrong, and it’s as simple as dropping the file directly in the game folder? Because I swear Ren’Py wouldn’t open the interface until I did other shit.
lmao that'd do it, thanks. Now I have to decide whether or not I actually want to skip

First off: I really like these renders. I can almost envision it as a 'Battle of Kumon-mi' type situation, where Yumi makes open threats but Nodoka's just messing around.
Secondly: you asked about lighting and shadows, sooo... mini tutorial time.

With all that information in mind, lets compare the final renders, both with and without added lighting:

Well, that just goes to prove that I'm serious when I say that we have both the writers and programmers to remake the ending to LiL if Selebus drops the ball. Nice work, Zuko.

Sorry - why is he a dickhead for putting reset info in a happy event (as opposed to any other kind of event)?

It’s a long story that’s been talked about out at length. I recommend using the search function on this site to look through the numerous previous discussions about this. Needless to say, it isn’t about the reset events, it’s about stuff outside the game (I.e. IRL stuff). Also, welcome!

Hello everyone please send me safes fully passed version 45 because I accidentally when cleaning the system deleted them to the game and pass to this point long

May I once again recommend the search function for the thread, as saves are very common and multitudinous for each version of the game that comes out. Cheers.
No, I know the story and I've seen everyone's hate boners for Selebus. My question is why does putting the reset info in a happy scene specifically make him a dick, which is what the poster I was replying to said ("How dare you peasants skip my happy events, I'm going to hide required information to complete the reset inside of them ") There is reset information in lots of events - why is it worse for it to be in the happy scenes?
FWIW, I have no problem with Selebus telling the story the way he wants to, reset events and all, and if I did I would simply not play the game. It's his story. I don't know him personally or care about whether he is an asshole or not, I like the game and so I support him on SS because I think people deserve to get paid for their work.
