Yes, it looks like it's going to be another 5-7 months or so. You're looking for the cargo ship icon to sail.

There are 61+ faces shown as complete and 71+ remaining to be done. He's 23 weeks into reporting progress. If progress doesn't change, there's about 26-27 weeks left in scene work. That doesn't count fixes, QA, etc.

Puts Chapter 7 on task for similar release as Chapter 6 - around the end of this year/beginning of next. If it comes sooner, we should consider it a pleasant surprise.

How annoying, lol.

Every version of unren that I've tried (4 of them) fails with an error when trying to extract the rpa files (option 1). It's the same error reported elsewhere in this topic, basically that there is "padding" in the rpa, or some path can't be found or some shite like that.

Does anyone have a version that does work?

1 person had a problem. It was decided they were attempting with the unren.bat in the wrong folder.
This is where it should be:

I never have had a problem with UnRen on this title.

That's the folder it was in. Here are the errors each of the 4 versions of Unren is throwing:

............................

"Could not extract file from archive: [Errno 2] the requested file . does not exist in the given Ren'Py archive"

............................

Exception calling "FromBase64String" with "1" argument(s): "The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a
non-base 64 character, more than two padding characters, or an illegal character among the padding characters. "

(Same error as the first one)

Is the version you're using the one you linked, specifically?

EDIT: Just tried the one you linked. Throws the same error as my examples above, number 1 and 4.

FOLLOWUP:

Well, that was odd, unren 0.91 did actually work. I think.

I was watching the game folder in Explorer and despite that error showing in the unren.bat window..... it actually did extract everything. At least I think it was everything. Time to play and see.

Glad to hear it. I did just notice that you are were using UnRen in v0.6.2 folder. Curious - Is there a reason why you didn't want to UnRen the bugfixed v0.6.4?

Also, I just finished a second UnRen and see the one issue that is similar to yours, but as you can see - no further issues.

Excuse my foolishness, but I'm currently playing the 6.3 version, when I later on update, how can I keep my current savefile, and where is it located ?

Edit: I found the multiple files, do I only need to copy over the one save that I want, or also the "persistent" one.

If you're not on mobile, it should just keep your save files. Saves are stored in two places: the game folder (under "X\saves") and in your user directory (in "documents\renpy\X" iirc). So don't worry about it too much. If you're not confident, then just copy the files from the save directory of the version you're currently on somewhere safe then move them in after you get the new version.

Edit: just to expand, the save files save your progress and decisions, the persistent file is for things that are consistent across saves, such as which lines of dialogue you've seen (for the purpose of skipping) and gallery unlocks etc.
