hmm, not sure then, as nothing saying that saves are completely broken, just the rollback issues.
Maybe naughtyroad can shed more light.

ok i found the way, now i don't know if it was my problem or if it actually had to be done, but i solved it by copying the save folder of the previous version and saving them in the new one, then i deleted the folder from the old version and boom ! saves work! I hope it can help others with the same problem as me!

The volunteers with Game Compressor badges have a history of trustworthiness in the eyes of the F95 staff. But yes, you should be wary of anything you download from total strangers on a site such as F95. Again, it goes back to the word TRUST which is being repeated and drilled into people's heads because when it comes to getting their rocks off, people don't usually think clearly in order to get the nut. Same with downloading games from links not found in OP, but posted by some random person in the thread. Etc, etc, etc.
edit: Also, the "suddenly" is because for years many of us (almost all of us?) were under the impression that the saves were simply "innocent" text files. It is only recently that we are becoming aware of the ability of their being used maliciously. So it would be expected that there is increased awareness and sense of importance used in order to be more efficient and effective in getting the new information out. Sometimes beating someone over the head is the best way to get the message through.
Use common sense, know the risks, and remember - when you download something from someone, you're also downloading from everyone they've downloaded from.

It might be a losing battle, but it's worth repeating because while a lot of people will just ignore the warning about saves, some will listen and it could save them heaps of trouble. I only ever use my own saves. If I make a mistake or something and I loose my saves, it's not so much of a big deal to start the game from the beginning again. There was a reason I downloaded the game in the first place and kept it, if it was something i didn't like it would have been deleted so no loss at all.The volunteers with Game Compressor badges have a history of trustworthiness in the eyes of the F95 staff.

I guess people want some kind of instant gratification which I don't understand. There are adult sites out that cater to their kind of thing, maybe it's just me, I play these games for the stories, if the story is great, it could have no naughty images I wouldn't be bothered about it. I used to occasionally visit Literotica and read some of the sexy stories there. I stopped doing that when I discovered avn's for the first time. It is probably why I have no problems starting a game from the beginning again, if I enjoyed the story, i don't mind reading it again. I mean after all the developer's didn't write the stories not to be read, although of late I feel the opposite is true. Lots of abandoned games very early in their development.
Keep up your great work, I know it probably make you want to climb the walls with frustration when people never listen, but it is definitely the correct thing to do, even if it only helps a couple dozen people, so thank you for the help your giving people with these warnings, even when they seem not to even care.

nah, if it was up to me, I would declare this day a public holiday, fireworks like 4th of July, businesses put merch on sale. This is a big deal, this can't be like any latest update.. I mean, who knows when is the next time we get an update? I could be in a nursing home, others have children and see them off to college.
What a day to be alive.. I didnt see this coming when I logged in.

Yeah. I've looked into a report and what I could find is McAffee not liking it when applications write in AppData. I have no clue why that makes apps suspicious, I thought that was the whole point of appdata. Consider unchecking the "blocked" checkbox on the zipfile before unzipping, perhaps it gets less sus when it doesn't have the file flagged with the blocked flag, perhaps it's just worried when something it figures came from a shady site on the internet (now that is apt) is showing that behaviour.
I've seen only small rollbacks myself, and only occasionally, like back a half a dozen frames or so, nothing big. And only in a few cases.
It's a property of the upgrade to 7.6.1, I'm guessing there's cases where it's having a hard time matching the old callstack to the new code even if I made sure to change absolutely zilch in code that came previously, so there's absolutely no need for it to. Of courseevery call has the from label defined so that's not the problem either. If anyone's having trouble, perhaps try a save from a point a little earlier in the last chapter and pick it up from there.
Interestingly, someone mentioned having no problem at all with autosaves, and that kinda makes sense as autosaves happen at menus, and I'm sure those are pretty good anchoring points for renpy to figure out where it is in the code.
Cheers, but that's not it, recompiled it many times testing out different possible causes, and nothing sticks. Still looking into possible causes but the list is growing shorter. It's only an issue on certain android devices though, and by that I mean the exact same model might work fine for one user, and not for another, so it's nothing systematically wrong, and I get the feeling it's related to settings or other installed apps.
Anything is very much appreciated. If you sub a month at the (girl)friend or up tier you have a nice one-off and you can grab yourself some wallpapers.
Cheers. And yeah, that is a problem. But from a support perspective, I feel it's better not to offer an option that is buggy and error prone, and make it clear that the game's grown to big to support that. From what I'm hearing, 32 bits mode is now unstable as heck, and that's just a propery of the size of it I suspect.
So it'd be interesting to hear from anyone running in 32 bits and actually having smooth sailing <looks around expectantly>.
Once I make the step to ren'py 8 that's that though, that nixed 32 bit support entirely.
I have no clue, never seen anything like it. If you unzipped on top of the earlier version, don't, unzip to a fresh folder. Get rid of all mods too, and try running it clean. If you ever used the walkthrough mod in your past, your saves are borked anyway, even if you removed it later. Finally, use my builds, anything you didn't get from my links at the OP I can't help you with.
Cheers, glad you liked it. Sorry it didn't have more Brooke in it.
I am having the same issue, hopefully dev will do a patch or something, I tried the joiplay route but Google play says it's meant for older devices and won't let me download it.
I've lost my old saves, is there any good way to skip to chapter 7? I've read the post on why you shouldn't download random saves, as such wondering if there's a fancy button to skip ahead or any alternative?

go in game on preferences and tick skip:unseen text, to skip just press TAB or CRTL key!
Can also test this:

I agree that "Now and Then" is a good story driven experience but in the later parts of the game the quality of writing goes downhill. The setting itself (world ending, apocalypse, zombies if i remember correctly) add to that but the emotions like "fear, panic, madness and the loss of hope" appear shallow and not fledged out. The focus is to short to have any deep and memorable impact on the story for lasting effect for the viewer/reader.
Didn't know "Depraved Awakening" and will look into it. So thanks for that suggestion.
But now i will play this update as i had to much shit to do today to be able to play..... but finally i can release the.... pants.
Sadly there's quite a lot of choices (though a good thing for those not in my situation)

Didn't you make a backup with Time Machine ? Easiest thing to do ever.Thanks for the suggestion but I'm on a mac and have no previous saves, new machine
I tried two saves, one had a rollback issue and the other did not. Dunno why. I can say that the dates on all of the transferred saves seems to have updated to today, assuming that will be true for any day you transfer them
