It seems I'm unable to upload new photoshoots to my portfolio after my first meeting with Amber. I had to console cheat my weekly income just to meet her. It seems when starting a new game, all the other old stuff remains unlocked and therefore there's no uploading of new photoshoots taking place to trigger the next event?

That shouldn't be possible on a valid install, only achievements are persistent data. Everything else is wiped on a new save. Sounds like you have a bugged game if things are unlocked on a new save and I'd try deleting the game completely and reinstalling.

How can you reset the FULL data of the game? I feel like there's things unlocked that shouldn't (like in portfolio), and I can't progress on the story because of that. Starting a new save didn't help. Is there any hidden folder somewhere?

Only achievements are persistent, if you've got anything unlocked, then you've liked got a bugged download/install. Download the game again and start fresh.

I've just deleted the old game folder, downloaded the game from here, and once unzipped: my settings and saves are still there.
But with a new save, the portfolio isn't bugged anymore which was my issue. So thanks for the advice, it's fixed :) I just need to rush the game back to where I was.

BTW I was asking that because I tried to play a new save last week, and my portfolio was already totally unlocked. The first 4 photoshoots with Katie happened, which reseted the portfolio page of Katie to "empty". But all the other ones are already fully unlocked, even tho I didn't do any other photoshoot in my save.
Then the hints said "continue other storylines", appart from Amber that I hadn't met yet. So I guess that's why it was stuck: portfolio unlocked = can't meet Amber = everything stuck.

Edited: Everything's fine now! Only took me 30 minutes or so to speed through the game back to where I was.

PTGames:

I played version 0.23 while looking at the code to get things done as quickly as possible. In 0.18 I had to skip multiple weeks and now it is only a few days and later in the game. The new content -- very promising and a good idea to fill in skipping because one main character is lagging -- helps. Anyway at the end I expected to see meg_interrupted but got meg_privacy. I created a patch which I didn't test. But with this you could probably make a better fix. Didn't look at the hints, could be that there fix as well is needed.

Also found some minor bugs which I didn't check in the code:

* both photoshoots of Vee are already done when you open the studio, earnings are not added
* $20 for pizza with Amber (Amy? My notes are just like a doctor prescription) is never subtracted
* If you don't hire Emily the same day as you found the photostudio, see can be seen at the evening anyway

All of those should be fixed next update, except Vee. Her shoots aren't done when I opened the studio on my save?

I always delete the old saves -- in Linux: rm -r ~/.renpy/PTGames/ -- and use start. So it could be that this reveals the bug? Or may be the chosen path through the game? I've recorded most of the choices I made in a spreadsheet. If you think that could help, I will give it to you. It also shows where I had to skip parts of the day where there wasn't anything to do :).

Did you do a completely clean install of the game?

I played 0.18 when it came out and after playing I always delete the game. Only thing left is the directory in ~/.renpy and that one I delete before starting the new version of the game. I think this is as clean as it can be :cool:.

To the same principal 0.23 is also deleted. There are a few automatic saves and a final save in the ~/.renpy directory:

Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 blupblup blupblup 340221 mrt 29 23:05 1-1-LT1.save
-rw-r--r-- 1 blupblup blupblup 341672 mrt 29 23:00 auto-10-LT1.save
-rw-r--r-- 1 blupblup blupblup 340220 mrt 29 23:05 auto-1-LT1.save

-rw-r--r-- 1 blupblup blupblup 323787 mrt 29 23:00 auto-9-LT1.save
-rw-r--r-- 1 blupblup blupblup 637154 mrt 29 23:05 persistent
If one or all of them could be useful to you I can arrange for you to get them.

Nah it's okay, thanks. I'll see if anyone else reports the same issue :)

Vee's shoots were already done for me as well. As far as I can tell (with where I'm currently at in-game) it's had no affect. It's really only a bother since I know there's a bit of dialogue/character development there.
