Dark Mode Adjustment MOD

I put together a few minor Ren'Py adjustments...mods and a few visual changes that present a DARK MODE for this excellent title.

  • Changed the white frame.png image, as well as the notify bar.png, NVL bar.png, and skip bar.png, and the choice idle back ground.png from white to black. (These dark changes aids with a much clearer font to read on screen)
  • Changed the default textbox, to a custom bottom shaded version...which aids with viewing dialog text without blocking any of the background content.
  • Included the 0x52_URM tool, which allows a user to view as well edit Ren'Py titles. (Used to verify and see more data behind some of the story choices, as well it can display requirement checks as they happen through out the story.)
  • Also included a Universal Quick Menu mod, which hide's or display's the quick menu by pressing your Q key. (Used to help clean up the dialog area by hiding the quick menu from the bottom of your screen.)
  • Changed out the confirm.png, game menu.png, and Main Menu.png from white to black. Which displays the text more legible to see (reduces eye strain for large screen users).
  • Included an updated version of the custom textbox.png (visually better) which was added to the Mech Academy Multi-Mod [v0.5.17.1] recently (Thanks RiamMar for all your efforts). (Note: The Dark Mod will work with or without the RiamMar multi Mod installed)
UnRen Rollback unlock file: (I noticed rollback has been locked, so I used UnRen and created a rollback unlock fix.
Install: Extract and place the unren-rollback.rpy file into your titles game folder.


Included a custom font outline script (separate download below), which adds dark outlines around the dialog text and the character names...(Visually improves the dialog and name text, which compliments the text against the new custom dark textbox.) Install, extract and place the Modified_z.rpy text mod file into your game folder.

Install:
Just extract and merge the game folder with this titles game folder (over write if prompted). Then run your game exe, and enjoy this title in dark mode. (Reduced eye strain)

Note: This mod compilation will not need regular updates, (providing no major coding changes are done to the original script of this title)...it should continue to work for future game releases.

Also... this mod compilation works along side the RiamMar Multi walk through mod with no conflict issues.

Regards.

I did my degree on sociology... You really talking like I know nothing about humans or cultures, I'm well equiped on the subject, meanwhile you are not, in fact in our degree we look all cultures with respect and say all of them is valuable in their own way, if you don't believe me just find a book about culture and sociology and read it, or just check online, it really doesn't work like you talk even in scientific level, no need to drag this talk anyways, since you don't have enough information about the subject, yet have very clear takes from your own opinions, but I can clearly say the way you think is aint healthy, from your point of view from another culture if someone traits you racist, toxic, and insulting you will be okay with that, and that level of acceptance is really bad, hope no one shares same opinions as you, take care your mental health and good day.
Degree in Sociology? Not something to brag about in my opinion. Was the underwater basket weaving track all filled up?

Damn , i know you got choices here ... but Elara is just a nasty piece of work ... even when you try treating her nicely . Sure she was not the only one being offensive and going "caveman" , but at least everyone else actually evolves and get over it . I even got an hilarious 180 turn with someone else's parents .. but Elera just can't stop finding reasons to be mad at you .... at least so far

if anything, this is one of the funniest games I have played in a while. Can anybody recommend any other funny games?

Totally agree - I took 2 years of that politically motivated, left-winged, and unrealistic B.S. - before I switched to Electrical Engineering.
It pays better (as I could actually get a job in my field of study), and was less stressful - as I had ZERO snowflakes to deal with after switching.....

P.s
Underwater Basket Weaving - does actually sound sort of fun!?
Arts, crafts, and bikinis....

I'd actually check out underwater basket weaving, out of sheer curiosity, ngl.

I also had a fake major before switching to a STEM field. Best decision I ever made (y)
Electrical engineering? Respect

I'm going to guess english isn't the first langauge of the game. simply by "he" should be She". Normally when text is ran through a translator they fuck this up. fuckup.png

I think you're probably right, but still, I'd say that the dialogue is pretty decent in this game, comparatively speaking. I've played some games where the game in general is really good, but the dialogue is poorly translated into Engrish, Spanglish, Benglish, Franglais, Deutglish, or Rusglish hybrid grammar that is almost painful to read and that kinda ruins the overall experience.

The "he/she" problem that online translators have is usually with translating into English various Romance languages that have masculine and feminine nouns and verbs, but don't have an exact equivalent of "they", instead having "plural he" and "plural she" that each get used as "they", depending on the circumstances.

dont get me wrong I love the story and game but its funny and being a writer. my brain picks up on errors to good sometimes.
but I agree its lowers the quality of the game. the renders are top tier i've seen so far but the writing brings the story down.

You try going into any police academy or army applicatons and learn how to live in day and night with 20 or 30 other cadets or army personnel ... M.A.S.H. or Police Academy will be your dream go to shows from then on to retirement.
Gonna be honest this dude accepts way too much bullshit
He plays coy before he gets conscripted ... after he becomes just another soldier in the war machine, he falls in line just like any other army personnel. He admits to everyone he used to be a carreer veteran of multiple wars, so making ends meet with other rough diamonds jar heads just like himself - inadequately socialised meat heads who only know arms and war and barracks banter all their lives, is his normal state of mind.

We even get to see MC party with fellow army vets - they are wild and totally overbord - irreverant toward basic social norms.
