i tried the new season 2 version which is not posted here yet (steam build 2.12 full release ) and i can confirm the video files are infarct in worse quality . the webms do seem to contain audio(which is comically bad 
) but when in game it does not seem to play the sfx . at least the good news is that the vid enhancement mod works with it .idk weather i should upload it now or wait for them to fix this issue first .

can you confirm that 2.12 doesn't have additional animations compared to previous versions ? (before the SFX update)i tried the new season 2 version which is not posted here yet (steam build 2.12 full release ) and i can confirm the video files are infarct in worse quality . the webms do seem to contain audio(which is comically bad
How does the game perform with my mod installed + SFX from 2.12 ? (stuttering, freezes, fps drop...)

both the current video rpa and your mod have 1256 vid files . from the little i played it runs better with the mod . the sfx are built into the new webms (which are also Av1 encoded) . the sfx does not work me with or without the mod but i do know its there by checking the files . so if it does work for someone using the mod will remove the sfx entirely since the 60fps vids do not have them . im attaching a file here which contains a animation from the new update and the 60fps version from your mod to compare .

ok I thought SFX were running separately as an audio file along with the video
i'll see if I can merge SFX with my mod
I think they messed up the AV1 encoding somehow and performance is usually worse compared to VP9 (standard encoding for ren'py)

thank you !
I don't see why they degraded their own work for just SFX
Were they concerned about the size of the game files to re-encode the animations with AV1?
I'll stick to VP9 for my mod , I usually prioritize quality/performance over lower filesize

the size diff is unnoticeable. full game size is still 20+gb . i heard them mention something like they reduced anim quality for performance reasons . the sfx seems to be added for promotion purposes . or just to get their "sound guy" to do something .

it still doesn't make sense to me lol
I did some mods for SFX animations and it was running fine
anyway, I'll see if performance is really affected with my encoding settings.
Thank you for signalling it. Great scene with Mia too!

yes all the NTR scenes are bonus scenes which are avoidable and as of rn are only in season 2 .
Speaking voices disappear. Can I do something that i can hear speaking voices again? I play season 3 now.
Under "Settings" make sure that "Mute All" is NOT highlighted, and under "Mute Indidividual" if there is a character with a X near the loudspeaker icon, click on "Unmute <character name>"
