Was there ever an official mention of the DRM? I can't see it in those two images. AFAIK It was a point I brought up because we don't understand how the DRM works. If it's based on the care package loading menu being used, then loading anything even free DRM would activate it. I'm not sure what it queries and what it compares against for a fail, but I'd back up your saves before loading any fanfest content.

There's half a chance that's how it works, and it's going to nail innocent people because Sel hasn't used it for over a year and forgot how it works too.

No, we know how the DRM works. It looks for unique IDs in the following four images that were distributed with care packages: game/gui/main_menufeb2023.png, game/gui/main_menujan2023.png, game/gui/main_menuextra1.png, game/gui/game_menumollydec2022.png

If you don't have those images, the existing DRM can't do anything to you. However, I also recommend:
  • Delete the "Misc" block of code in gui.rpy (lines 418-441). Warning: update patches always contain a gui.rpy with this block, so you either need to delete it each time or don't copy the file from the patch.
  • Replace game/images/BGs/summerdorm2monsecond.png with the clean version shared here
Doing these makes it harder for him to sneak in a new version of DRM in the future.

Relevant for those about to play 0.47
If you want Sana's number and it's missing from your phone, go check the photo she has sent you by this point. It will appear in your phone after you're done. Considering you can invite Sana immediately if you've completed 0.46, this is important.

Ok before I dive into the new update, how did the game handle bugs from 0.46? (and I guess one from before that, it's just relevant now)

Well that's more information than I knew about. Is there a bigger post about it? Would like to know if it's the game searching for those files, or the files have some tag that signals the DRM to do a check. And what exactly the DRM checks against to see if it's a legitimate copy, like is every one of those images uniquely generated at purchase and locked to some windows account or something.

If it's the files containing a tag, that could mean any safe copies downloaded would remain safe.

Ngl I don't keep up with this stuff when it comes to DRM shenanigans, and this fanfest thing. What is the fanfest about? Also is it worth the trouble of working around DRM for carepackages?

Double also, these events mostly autoplay? Or did some1 post a guide. If so I am blind

I'm unsure on how the miss-able events work or what effects it can have on my play through. I'm still in chapter 1 and from the guide it looks like i will hit one guarantee unless i load a save if anyone could help thanks (the event is with rin [my bff lol] i think its involves chika)
Click to expand...
If you're following the guide, then you probably triggered the "schadenfreude" event (Chika's bedroom) before the beach trip, even though the guide told you not to. This will lead to the path called "bad homie" with Rin. If you can, I suggest going back and waiting for the beach trip to trigger it, this will activate the "good homie" path - which is a must for a Rin enjoyer.

Thank you for your reply!

Even though i found it out after literally checking every single option possible every day and time for few hours.

I'm basically just kinda giving up and checking all the girl's profile and photo messages thingy at the very end and she now appears －＿－

Kinda my fault since i usually just check what every option says or what will happen and then reload the game.
Especially after what could happen if you do Uta's picture.
So im trying to avoid those thing that might affect my route negatively and ending up stuck.

We have been posting event trigger guides for a while now, I recommend checking those out as the Sana thing was covered there as well. Usually they become obsolete as the guide mod is updated, but until then it can save you a lot of time.

I also recommend installing URM if you want to check every option, as that will allow you to simply choose to see the variation through a popup, before rolling back and going through your actual choice. Which is faster and way more comprehensive than reloading.

Is there event trigger guide for 0.48? Or doesn't really need one? Probably will check out the update tonight.

I also never got around to using the guide mod. I guess cause I usually read back in this thread for the heroes like my man above to post

Even if all events were automatic, I'd still make a trigger guide because other than people having to know that they're all automatic, the guide also covers events variations, translations and additional info. But, yes, 0.48 does have specific triggers:

Many thanks. Also do we know what this supposed "filler content" is? Would if be like some downloadable thing next month? Or like a set of images for us

Oh my god. I just have an inspiration.
Consider my words more like observation rather than theory or something.

I have a request for you guys, though. Send me the iconic pic of three girls on a beach. And remind me if Yumi and Pareidolia share the same C-word. Also I will ask you to remind me what moon colors we have.

Why do you want porn from this game specifically? You know it's the weakest part of it right?

While this is true, I still felt a bit disappointed getting cockblocked so many different times this update. I don't blast rope to this game but that doesn't mean I can't want to see Rin, Touka, Uta, Yumi, Rika, or Tsuneyo get it either
