VN Ren'Py Move the Chains [v0.3] [MissFortune]

[MissFortune]

There's a bug for anyone who picks "Ask for some time." in the conversation with Yuna at the start of S01E02.

All of the dialogue checking the results of those choices are in the structure:

Choice at the beginning of Episode 3 the variable that was causing issues.

@MissFortune I wanted to report some things, I don't know if my save is corrupted or the game is like this and I misunderstood.

Firstly, just in case, I have the politically incorrect patch enabled, but not the incest patch.

1. The first bug is after the MC refuses to meet and talk to Devon. He says nothing more, but the following dialogues do not seem to fit. Have a look at the pics:

2. The second bug is that in the same scene, the conversation with Ria seems to be suddenly cut off. I upload two screenshots, the first pic is the last scene that I see with Ria, and the next pic is the render that I see immediately after that. I suspect my save is the problem as I haven't seen anyone else report this.

3. Finally, during the gallery tour with Fame, there are two links that seem to lead to a Patreon page that hasn't uploaded any posts for a year and hasn't updated any games for two years.
It seems to be an abandoned project, I don't know if the links are correct.


Have a good one !

Thanks for pointing some of these out. Will look into these.

1. That was kind of a confusing scene to code/order because of the conversation and choice. It's highly likely it got mixed up. when I was coding it. Shouldn't really effect much beyond that specific conversation, but I'll see about fixing it with either the public release or 3.5.

2. I haven't seen this specific issue myself, nor has anyone reported it, but I'll take a look. Could be possibly related to the traceback some on Steam were having. That whole scene turned out kind of buggy for whatever reason.

3. A bit after I started development on Episode 3, I made a post on the dev subforum about art for that scene. That was a few months ago. It's very possible some games were dropped between then and now. I'll take my time removing them and look into them a bit before removing them, just in case they're not actually abandoned.

How do I get this game to automatically play (auto text). I can't find it on the quick menu, and in the settings, it gives me the option to change the speed but not to turn it on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's broken. I've tried a few things. Original code, new code. The original code seems to work, but the issue is that you can't turn off the auto-forward. With the new code, the opposite is true. It stops it, but doesn't work when turned on.

Still looking into solutions.

The chapter 2 stuff is still broken tho.

I'm aware. It's on the list to get fixed once the game is done, the variable fix should be enough for now.

auto-forward works for me

Huh. Now I'm even more confused.

c to toggle, works as per usual.

edit: quick menu can't be expanded with the arrow when you toggle it otherwise it doesn't work

Where do you put the file? Main dir or somewhere else?

inside the "game" folder

Didn't make any difference. Still not working for me. Pressing C just moves it one scene forward with every click. No auto forward. But thanks for the advice.

Have to go out for a bit. Will take a look at this when I get back. Thanks.

set the auto-forward time to max then back to smallest possible and see if it goes through the renders quickly. i just also noticed that it doesn't work when the quick menu is expanded so try that as well.

 

[MissFortune]

Gonna start finishing up the Discord. Might be a bit barebones for a while until I can understand how everything works. If you spot bugs or anything that needs attention, DMs are going to be the easiest way.

Guess I'll go find more ways to break the fourth wall. Pissing people off is shockingly profitable, apparently?

If you want my opinion on the scene, I thought it was funny but not realistic because nobody is going to listen to the nine rules in silence without interrupting, Spencer should have said something from the third rule onwards .

Nah bro, whatchu mean, theres a couple good white corners in the NFL right now. Dejean whos about to play in the Superbowl, and then also Moss on the Broncos who was missed heavily in his absence due to injury.

Too bad all the fast enough white dudes can generally catch. Jordy Nelson would have been a DB if he didnt have hands. Went to a suburban ass hs that was 90% white. The starting corners on the football team were both Asian lmfao.

I mentioned this before, but these "clever references" cease to be clever when its just switching one word or even one letter around. At that point, its not even a reference. It works when you rely on someone's specific football knowledge to understand a reference, like an MCU Easter egg. You mention "Nuke" and I know you're talking about DeAndre Hopkins. See? That's a good reference. And for people who dont follow American football, the writing already explained it's importance (unique talents who utilize something other than just running really fast to get open)

Like Family Guy did this bit in like season 7. BSPN? Okay funny. Skip Brainless? I see you. I gotchu. Change Stephen A Smith's name but leave Sasha Grey?

I've been going through and changing names to the real people/products where I won't get in potential legal trouble for doing so. Sasha Grey is a pornstar, so being mentioned in a porn game/AVN isn't all that much of a stretch. ESPN is Disney whom, along with Nintendo, you don't really want to take chances with. Some are just memeing, though.

Will they ever come after some small fry legally? Probably not. But playing with fire is a game I don't really like playing, either.

 

[jak1165]

Memes are tricky. There's a small dev company who makes games that end up this website, although they aren't necessarily porn AVNs. The writing in the games is generally pretty good at the characters are generally voice acted One of them games was about Fighting in Mechsuits. Cool. Now imagine the entire planet is Brazil and Fighting in Mechsuits is basically soccer

The "tv shows" were memes about fighting in Mechsuits. There was "How I Met Your Mechsuit", "Game of Mechsuits", "Breaking Mechsuits" and "Mechsuits", which was apparently a Friends reference and not, in fact, a Suits reference. Yeah, the writing is normally good but that was just....not their best moment.

First of all. Great game until now. Love the setting, love the story. Renders are good. I really can't decide what LI to chase after. In my first playthrough i try to play like i want to play it. I didn't even banged one girl in 3 updates, but I'm fine with that. I will play it more than once. So i want a savegame for every LI / possibilty in the game. And here is my problem. I don't have a way to rename my savegames. Will there be a update that will change that in the near future?

It's something I'll look into for Episode 4. But whether I add it or not will depend on if it requires a fresh start (for players) to be properly implemented.

I love this game, dev has done an amazing job on it.
