Ren'Py Lust Academy [S3 v3.10.1d] [Bear in the Night]

[JackMiejov]

I didn't have the problem with savegames (yet), but I find it strange that this game has a progress bar when loading a savegame and it takes fucking forever (OK, it's only 12 seconds) to load a save. I've played hundreds of Ren'Py games and most of them were both larger in size and significantly more complex than this game. I can't recall any of them that have had a load progress bar or any of them that took so long to load. They all take only 1 or 2 seconds. Something's amiss with this game.

Edit: Stranger still is that the save file size is only 200-300kB in this game where is it is 2MB-3MB in other games. Yeah, something's amiss.

Maybe you have low RAM?
We didn't have such types of reports, usually it's smth is about 2-4 sec to load, but if you load your system hard - loading can takes more time

This system is a Windows desktop with Core i7-5775C, 16GB DDR4, GTX970, 750GB Crucial MX300 + 1TB Crucial MX500 SSD. It's not a modern gaming PC, but it's not slow by any means. I'm not sure what you mean by "if you load your system hard". It's not like I'm transcoding video in the background, there is nothing else actively running on the system, and literally no other Ren'Py games take this long to load (note that saves don't take long on this game).

Will pregnancy be a feature?

 

[Bear in the Night]

Will pregnancy be a feature?

Yes, I think

 

[Mimas]

impossible to save and especially to relaunch its save, I will test your game when we can save its progress, no interest as it is... sry

i thought it was strange the load bar takes a bit of time for me too, but if you hit ctrl you can skip it

 

[laserraptor]

Anyone have gallery unlocked for 0.4.2?

LOL, sure enough, pressing <Ctrl> instantly skips the slow progress bar. I suspected it was just something artificial since loading ~250kB from an SSD should take a few milliseconds, not several seconds.

 

[Poolver]

What do you mean?
Do you have 0.4.2 version?

i loaded my save data
0.4.1f version

 

[Ravenmore]

Is there any way to use your chosen player name from the main game in the Christmas Special?

 

[ronniq_390]

Is there anyway
to progress with Leona? I have completed all other quests, but the directions for Leona are telling me to just wait. Not sure how to proceed.

For me the event triggered automatically in the morning after the sleeping. But can't remember how many days I played through.

Yup, the name will take automatically if you played in the normal game

Hey!
So you skipping days, but still, she doesn't come?

 

[Bear in the Night]

i loaded my save data
0.4.1f version

So, what is the problem? I don't get it

 

[cowboybebop]

waiting next main story update, dont like side story

 

[Bear in the Night]

Same problem for me: version 4.2; no mods; Sandbox.
It saves correctly for the first week of game; now if I save the game at any point when I load it I restart from the same point (thursday morning). The Auto-Save stops working too.
Attached two example

Hm, Did you find any other patterns after which the saves stopped working correctly?
Because we can't catch the error on our own

It didn't work for me when I first loaded it up, so I started a new game with the name, did a save, then started the special.
