I've never understood why they get packed in the first place. The rpa archive format seems to offer no (or next to no) reduction in size and just makes it annoying if you want to view the CGs or code. I wish all games were packed unpacked.
good question. however there's a handy tool to extract everything anyway.

Yes but that's what I mean by annoying, it takes time storage and disk life to duplicate the data for seemingly no reason. I tend to check CGs before I try new games or updates so I'm very familiar with the inconvenience.

The reason most games use archives for data rather than loose files even without compression is because it gives better performance to load from one file than many.

I don't understand. I download a fresh copy each update, I don't over write shit. And I've only had a issue once. So maybe it's you not the vn.
Me too. saves don't work, older saves even take me to unrelated scenes, it's borked.
i just usually start a new game ...
Did that too, that's when I noticed a bunch of scenes that should have pictures, don't, because "skip previous messages" thinks I've not read anything. Joy.

This may be bad advice but maybe delete everything like that persistent file some threads mention and start the process again. This is the first I've read of this issue, atleast I can't remember reading it before.

Good luck anyway

I am so lost right now. I downloaded the file from mega, extracted it into a separate folder; but when I go to open up the game it's even there? I click twice it takes me to the "game" folder.
