Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.53.0] [Selebus]

[alt-f8]

its pirating, of course everyone's going to share their uncorrupted saves and nothing is accomplished except generating more badwill

The point was to give you a bit of a fuckover to discourage piracy. I at least don't care about bad will from pirates, and neither does Sel.

 

[ReegusLeroy]

So I downloaded the Update Only patch (the workupload one) and had my saves wiped out after launching the game.

Then restarting the game give me this same message

79 6F 75 20 77 6F 75 6C 64 6E 27 74 20 64 6F 77 6E 6C 6F 61 64 20 61 20 63 61 72 2E 2E 2E ->
"you wouldn't download a car..."

You might want to backup your saves, has I did, before playing this update, and the next ones.

I'm looking into the code right now. Is it a screen that pops up with that message or text in the dialogue box?

So, I guess

It's what I suspected for a really long time, makes sense why she wouldn't want to transform into her.

 

[Bingoogus]

i know, but where can i find the save folder to put these new saves in

Well... depending on how things were deleted, the folder might not exist, so start the game and it should create it.

5 minutes of inconvenience while everyone just reshares completed saves was a true victory.

 

[vehemental]

anyone else getting this weird bug where if you open the game it deletes all your saves and if u try to close and reopen the game it refuses?


I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the

this is the error

Attached is a "good uncle" save with the only events missing being Ami's up to the end of 28.

Saves go in C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\Test2-1577602671

I'm looking into the code right now. Is it a screen that pops up with that message or text in the dialogue box?

I believe its a silent update and not in the regular script files, interesting enough when I was looking for the hex text, the code was actually in a image called "summerdorm2monsecond"

 

[Bingoogus]

"good uncle"

Every time i see it i scowl, a good uncle takes care of his niece's needs, that flag should be called "BAD UNCLE".

 

[Bingoogus]

You know, this is actually kind of fun, like a puzzle, watching you guys sleuth your ways through the game files to find the hidden prize... who shall claim ultimate victory? Or is it a community project and all participants share in the fun?

 

[AzureVolt]

oh I see the code somewhat now, I don't want to post spam so I wanted to spoiler it but I have no idea how to lol

 

[ReegusLeroy]

Sel warned in the Discord to avoid Osoka or it would break your game. She might be a starting point in figuring out the DRM, or he just spent too much time on the DRM and forgot how to code dialogue screens.

That's how I feel about it as well. It's actually fun, a little minigame added to the latest update

Write it out, highlight it and click the 3 dots next to the flag icon in the toolbar, select inline code.

[AzureVolt]

Welp thats the limit of my programming skills, cause the code from now on looks like gibberish to me other than actions of
urlopen and scriptfile.write

I'm no programmer but that's pretty fucking clear even to my eyes... now what does one do to deal with it? The next chapter in this minigame begins.

from looking at the image itself, I think the issue is the DRM and the code that summons dormimage conflicts with each other, making it a bit buggy, shouldn't be too big of a issue to complete if he just fixes it by making what script summons the dormimage and make it into another dormimage but without the code and with a different name, not a permanent fix but a quick one

I don't how he didn't run into it when testing though

never mind, if the issue with Osako then idk what is causing the bug

        pass

And done, replace yours with this one in the lil/game folder folks.

All that code is gibberish to me but "#drmvar = plnd[0:-4].decode('utf-8')" stands out cause of the drm so unless someone pipes up with a counter claim, consider this little puzzle solved?
