VN Ren'Py Long Road Home [v10 Part 4 Beta Update 1] [OBDGames]

[Maviarab]

yes but if compared to size of eu not individual countries then not that bigger then.

Smaller actually by land mass.

However, given each state does the fuck whatever it wants anyway and wants to be as independant as possible and that the States have wanted to be like europe since independance...ther's really not much difference at all between the two really is there lol.

 

[e6mill]

but still yes, American states are the size off some country's

I'm aware.

 

[e6mill]

my home country (the Netherlands) is about 16,040 square miles so 1 American city (maybe a larger one though) is about 1/40th my country

I read somewhere (so it must be true) that if the entire human race was packed together as tightly as in Amsterdam we'd all fit on Manhattan island.

Dimitri57 think you can make portraits and profile shots for each character, and add a 'characters' or 'relationships' menu to the game?

Or at least still make the images and share them in a .zip or something, so a user can make a mod?

[actually, I already completed the mod myself, before I lost my hdd, even making ugly images for each character, by using online tools to remove backgrounds, resizing, cropping, etc.]


Avatars, just a head shot of character, about chest is the crop bottom.
And profile picture, could be anything you are willing to do, I'm hoping for a full shot of a character standing in a pose of your choice. So it would show their feet, to the top of their head, no cropping.

To make it more easy, you could just make profile pictures, then simply copy and crop them to make the avatars.


When your part 1 / season 1 is completed, if there isn't a 'characters' menu, I'll re-make a mod my self to add a 'characters' menu, and add in variables to the script to add/show said characters, and indicate other stuff [like pregnancy, etc.].

Not going to use persistent variables, ie: you won't be able to see the 'character' menu form main menu, only after you started the game or loaded a save. But variables tied to each save.
[example: jessiemet, jessiepregnant, etc.

I could turn out a mod and share it here I suppose, then users can give feedback on placement, fontsize, missing/more info, etc.

I'll start remaking the mod soon I guess. [at least a template up and running showing first handful of characters, I guess.

not a bad idea and a fairly common feature

i do think dimi said that 1 off the main girls could be pregnant and possible depending on choices 1 off the more side chicks as well,but wanted to keep the info as more off a surprise,so imo that kinda info should remain hidden until revealed in the story

we haven't reached a point where the harem has grown so large that they are getting hard to track/recognise,alas it isn't to far off for that
mostly because thus far their all unique enough not to cause major confusion, a few girls are forgettable but more due to absence then anything else

Juanita Milf, Maria caliente chica

I remember Maria. And caliente means hot literally, but also more like bothered or thirsty.

 

[Dimitri57]

I say mexico since at the moment puerto rico(i am puerto rican) is having problems with people and the beaches

Riviera Maya, Mexico. In between Playa del Carmen and Tulum.

I read somewhere (so it must be true) that if the entire human race was packed together as tightly as in Amsterdam we'd all fit on Manhattan island.

i read if you put the entire population as the same concentration in Taiwan everyone would fit in Alberta Canada with room to spare.

Yep, and she is definitely one hot, thirsty MILF! Jus' Sayin'

I lived and worked in north Harris County since 1988. Retired in 2021 and moved to southern part of Galveston County and love it down here.

Not tellin' you scoundrels what state I live in... but here's a hint... The city at the top of it thinks it should be it's own state. A state on each side is an "eye" state and the state below it begins with Mmmmmmmm and definitely sucks. I guess that would make the tip of my state the "nosey" part since the stuff they used to pull out of the ground here was pretty smelly due to its' high sulfur content.

I was just using pregnancy as a specific example, among other things we could add/track in the script, so to help a 'characters/relationships' menu display.

Rest of my post here, is just for clarity sake, and not directed at you, mind you.

We would need to add some more variables in the script, shouldn't be too time consuming.

Example of variables and script stuff:
default pregkaty = no
default metkaty = false

and adding a "$ metkaty = true". somewhere in the script for if/when it is revealed somewhere in dialogue.


So that the character menu could auto update something like this:

if metkay:
display an avatar+name [becomes highlighted when hovered, and clicking leads to characters bio screen]
else
display a silhouette of avatar [not clickable]


and characters screen [very rough example] could look like this:

screen characterkaty

Name: Katy
Age:
Pregnant: [pregkaty] <<<or we can use an if/else statement here, I'm just trying to streamline it with variable no/yes>>>
Other:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Bio:/whatever
etc.
etc.

Really kicking myself I lost my HDD, I actually had many self made mods across many harem games....
going through every damn image looking for the best shot of a character, to edit into a profile picture + cropped avatar.


Other note, I did notice the models of the characters, over the course of the vn versions, seem to have gone up in quality,
so what I may do for this game, is having several profile pictures for at least jessie and tracey, that auto change depending how far along in the story you are. Should be simple to track for me actually.

I'll work on a template today.

edit: simple edit, just wanted to say the dev doesn't have to spend time on this, just asked if we could get nice full shots of each character standing in cloths (each character can use different sanding poses or similar poses) on solid color/transparent background.
