VN Ren'Py Abandoned Midlife Crisis [v0.34 - v0.1 Dark] [Nefastus Games]

[JustPeekin]

His Sunday updates are usually in 4-5 hours from now. Hopefully everything is okay and we hear something soon.

So hey, all. I wonder - is it bad form to offer a developer a reworked script with grammatical fixes? I love this game so much. It really resonates with me. Checks all the boxes, you might say.

Anyway, if it's not considered bad form, how would I go about offering a reworked version?

EDIT: I'm seeing this is happening to everyone using 0.24 saves. Keeping it up for reference.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "renpy/common/00action_file.rpy", line 441, in __call__
    renpy.load(fn)
Exception: Couldn't find a place to stop rolling back. Perhaps the script changed in an incompatible way?

Depends on the dev, really. Simple typos and grammar errors are usually taken with a great "thank you". The energy behind fixing them is different though. As soon as it goes into changing speech patterns, let alone story lines, most will say "Thanks, but no thanks."

And some (rare ones) even scoff at the idea that there is anything to improve in their game at all. Yes, even the sentence "Lets me fukc you're pusy" is fine as it is, how dare you think otherwise?

Personally I would say, as long as it is just a way of appreciating the work and fixing typos, it is not bad form. Then again, I am the guy who once almost completely rewrote some proposal at work because there were literally three mistakes every other line. Spelling, punctuation, grammar, consistency of wording, internal logic. They didn't like it.

Any knows next update?

Any knows next update?

The question you raise is currently being discussed in posts 7811-7827 (excluding posts 7812,7813,7819,7823) in this very thread.

 

[Grubb]

Should I bring my milk carton image again?

 

[Kulman]

It is funny that it is always when he says something like: "Uploading now, pretty much no chance of it being late now" and then disappears off the face of earth for a week

 

[Shawdawg]

Does anyone have a .25 save that is right after the arcade? Updated to newest versiom and still crashes no matter what render I choose, crashes after MC asks if girls want to leave

 

[Shawdawg]

Most voluptuous person and shooting star for me!

To think, I only included her to be done with the wild mixes of courteous-modded compressed versions constantly borking my saves…*ts*

Never discount Hailey though...

The same woman model is used in Foot of the Mountain (looking maybe slightly younger) and A Different Summer (looking a bit older).

She's my favorite Milf model, along with the redhead from Personal Trainer and the drawn Mom from A Town Uncovered

I can't get past the ATU Mom's mental instability/emotional manipulation.

Hm, that's very early in the game… Could you please post the last lines of the traceback (see traceback.txt in the game's root)? Should look something like this:

  File "renpy/common/_layout/screen_main_menu.rpym", line 28, in script
    python hide:
  File "jaddajadda/MidLifeCrisis-v0.25-pc/renpy/execution.py", line 371, in pop_dynamic
    del store[k]
KeyError: u'_main_menu_screen'

I went ahead and CTRL-skipped to the first scene in the diner after having been to the arcade. Do take note however, that the provided save file will most probably not be usable by the v0.25 shared here, as the latter isn't an official release. See this post about how to switch to the official script files (or more importantly the official rpyc files – and the

You must be registered to see the links

for further information on why it's important in the first place ).

Hope this helps!

Oh, Sandra's model is also used in volume one of A New Home, albeit only in a minor non-lewdable role.

 

[Shawdawg]

I will probably have to apply that patch, but my problem occuree even in .23, but not sure if that was another problem release

Save worked fine, though, after patching

FUUUUCK!!! What an amazing story. The art almost turned me off because it was so bad, but I saw it improve. There is almost every kink in this game... MORE!

Yes the writing is very good, so i think that when the game will be done, it would deserve a remake when the dev will get the knowledge and experience to improve his renders and add some animations.

I see you are a man of culture as well, what with not being shown these lines:

if not taboo:
    "Thank you for downloading my game. The early renders are quite bad I will admit. They get much better quickly, so if you would not judge the whole game early I would appreciate it."
    "I would rather focus on new content, though I do plan on redoing the old renders eventually."

 

[Capt Price]

When are you planning to add new Swinging contents???

Eh... you know how it is. As a Patron of his, I kind of take his posts with a grain of salt. When he says "I am uploading the update." I translate that to: "See you guys in a couple of weeks."
