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

[Moonflare]

Now that everyone has access to the "change menu" option (through the FanFest package), I thought I'd share how to make your own menus:

Spoiler: like so

Well, there are many ways to do it, including writing/modifying the scripts - but the issue with that is that even if you do it right, a future update will likely overwrite your file. So I'll teach an easier way that will be less prone to be overwritten as well.

First, let me show how it will look in the end:

For those interested in the Dualistic Sekais:

Omg, it's not even a hypothesis, it's a whole theory.

Also while we're at it, is there any analysis about real pupils? It sure is interesting to know anime ones changing to "real" has some logic behind.

This is Maki's car. Right-handed, yellow side view mirror. Chapter 3.

I think the logic is like she sold her previous 90-00's Nissan sport-coupe, the same as Haruka's but hers is blue, I think it's the same model as stands at the bridge near Sensei met smoking Yuki. Ans after that Maki bought newer 10's RR Evoque, it was shown in picnic event.
But what is a mystery to me - is that it's perfectly understandable to choose a British steering-wheel-in-glove-box car to drive in Japan, but for what purpose to get the left-hand drive version? The only reason I have is there's no reason for Maki at all, yep, she doesn't have any valid reason to do so - it's Selebus who has. Just simple "muh symbolism", look, Maki drives like Sekai, hurr-durr, Sensei is having flashbacks now, derp.

Entirely unsure because I honestly couldn't be asked to boot up a VM just to check the account I have sealed away to make sure I'm not banned for like my 10th time, but is this more Fan Fest stuff? And if it is, surely Sel wouldn't lie about that last bit right

I'll add a few main menus to this post later.

Wait how did you get the change menu image, is it a mod?

edit: I'm probably dumb, just need to do the instructions or something

edit 2: since I'm bothering with this I might as well edit the shit that comes from using dark mod because it is a bit scuffed in some areas, the menu when you open the game for example has random white bits, don't know how you even manage that

Yeah, it’s from the Akira x Rin animation that released today.

And if it is, surely Sel wouldn't lie about that last bit right

Hard to tell until we reach the next Beach event, but I guess we’ll see!

The ability to change menus has been added through the FanFest current care packages, you'll have to download it to be able to do it. Then you can follow the instructions.

Gotta say, I'm especially vibing with this one:

Looks like Sel is right on the cusp of falling below $10,000 again. Last time I looked he was around $10,300. I wonder what's going on to make that happen?

Maybe like what I said earlier, something almost nobody really wanted but is just going to accept because they don't have a single fucking say in it, but some will at least pull their payment from him because they aren't getting what they paid for.

 

[Moonflare]

Uncomfortable, I don't know how to use that and don't want to corrupt my save file.

I'm not sure what you want from us then

The game literally tells you that her affection has been reset because of what you chose.

Spoiler: phone message and rollback

If you don't want to edit her affection through the save editor of your choice (the best being URM), then just grind it back normally by going to the maid cafe (a lot). But hey, there are people that grind 3000 Ayane affection normally, so I guess that'd be nothing compared to them.

Also, editing affection will very much not corrupt your save. We've taught countless players how to do it in a safe manner.

This is a cool idea. I took a look at the fan fest code and it's actually super easy to add extra images to the image picker, so I've gone ahead and done that. Extract the attached zip to your game/ folder and it will add all of the images Moonflare shared in this post as options in the "Change Menu Image" menu. It also enables that menu even if you don't have fan fest or care package content installed.

If you want to add additional custom images, just edit the main_menu_images/main_menu_images.rpy file and add a new line with the same format as the existing lines.

This doesn't edit any existing files or override other code, so it will continue to work after future game updates.

The game has never specifically said there's a military base nearby, but that would give Sel a simple easy answer to the vehicle. Just claim that she bought the vehicle off a soldier leaving the country.

It's where all the space war guys deploy from.

But... it was already there... no?
I mean, I was able to change the menu in 0.46, even earlier...

Am I missing something?

Hey guys, a bit off topic, but does anyone have poetry recommendations with the vibes similar to the poems used in LiL? Both featured and original.
I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but to me it seems like an essential part of LiL.

I know Sel's favorite poets are Li-Young Lee and a bunch of classics like Poe, Blake, Dickinson, etc. But I'm still looking for new authors or specific poems. By "similar vibes" I mean anything that a person with our tastes might enjoy. It might be similar in themes, style, language, structure, anything. You know, vibes.

Also, to anyone unaware, the

is a godsend. Personally, apart from the poets listed there, I found similar vibes in Charles Bukowski (e.g. "Bluebird") and Shel Silverstein ("The Giving Tree" reminds me of some LiL-like fables). But I only started looking

Sadly, for me it's Ami, not only because she's direct victim of our incompetence, irresponsibility, escape, passivity and sin, but also because I this scene touched me in a way I can't describe and decided to trust in her no matter what afterwards.

Spoiler: Does a certain phrase remind you of someone?

This scene actually made me really sad to see the ch4 stuff, seeing Akira start to take steps towards helping her after she helped him gives me hope though.

Aramaug did an excellent job and I super recommend it (especially) for those that can't be bothered, or just aren't comfortable with editing and whatnot.

If I knew that was an option, I'd probably have made even more main menu options, but, regardless, those that download his file will get plenty of options from the get-go! (with barely any effort).

Spoiler: Aramaug's integration

Maybe in the future we can even update it to a true mega pack of menu options.

No but for real, why is it actually so scuffed, this is the "main_menu.png" when using dark mod

edit: It's annoying how I don't have a clue how I'd make the side black for every new update menu because it's going to show the new one when you go to load up a save on start up.
