Ren'Py My Best Friend's Daughter [S2 Ep. 7] [CeLaVie Group]

[Emma Nuelle]

I'va managed to advance till 56/58.
It's already day 23!! And still nothing. Has already evrey scene x times.
Skipped last days till 19:00 and 22:00 for scenes at left house and beach.
Nothing news happening anymore.

I lovedRoom for Rent. Had little problem to end that game (with MOD).
But this is second time I can't finish this came. Ep2 I missed 1 event, know in Ep3 2 events.....

Loaded up your save and got to end of C3 on day 24.

You need to do the fly at breakfast.
Go do day 24, go to the room at 23:00. ( I also did beach at 22:00 and watching change at 19:00)

Helper is no longer giving me tips. Fly scene ends with it dying and getting a warning that i missed something. Anyhow, i'll stop for a while now. Getting frustrating

Hi megaera, can feel with you. I also had my frustrating times in the beginning. But after going through it, I had so much fun. Here in the forum, there are tons of hints how to overcome the obstacles.

When Fly is dying, thats helpful. Then you know WHEN its happening, and next time (rolling back), you stop just before the kill (has been mentioned dozens of times). And about the message, "missing something", just roll back, then you will not miss something (icon top left, mostly click girl).

Ep2 was difficult, next Eps will be more easy flowing ... So after stopping for a while, may be you give it another try

I would've been a patreon for these for a while. It's seriously the game i'm trying the most to like. But even now I'm stuck on episode 2 and get get out.

What are your stats in Ep2 ? If you miss less than 10 points (like 65/74), then go to the toolbox and just go on to Ep3. Missing scenes will come later. ... Have fun.

You're welcome to upload your save or pm it to me and I'll try help.
I was very similar and had to get help from the dev, but I feel I have a better understand of how things work now, so I'm happy to try help if you're stuck.

Thanks the fly and the 23:00 event where the ones I was missing.
I am surprised I had seen the fly at breakfast 2 times??

But I'm glad I ended ep 3. Now waiting for ep 4

Ep4 will enlighten your day

I tried for long hours, but the game itself is boring, despite the very good scenes and graphics.
However, nothing happens, scenes are repeated and nothing changes, there is no progress, hot scenes, in short, that discouraged me a lot and I think that there is still much to be done.

 

[Yogi8156]

This game is so confusing to me and I am starting to be bored from all the same stuff. Wish there was a helpful walkthrough instead of the mod, I have stopped using. I can get nowhere, this game can be a good one. Need some help.

Check your PM.

me too please

Just a reminder that the game has a dedicated Discord channel, where all kinds of helpful people hang out. As an alternative to asking for help here, the Discord channel is available. Or is that the other way around? ;-)

If you're stuck, the following info will help:
- What version of the game are you playing on
- What episode are you stuck on
- What's you're score (example 48/58)
- A save file of where you're stuck

Since I'm a (fuckin' idiot) perfectionist I started a new playthrough with the 3.20 version - In my new run I can already confirm one occurrence of the above: Maria at home after diving and the "I'm feeling a bit risqué -..." show > the scene ends with an "Oops you missed an opportunity." Without any possible player interaction - no self or fly icons.

edit: Wasn't a problem with the 2.xx game version, but who knows, we didn't have help messages there.

I can only assume that I have done something out of order and the option to do what I should have done before no longer exists and because the option is not there, but the game know Ive not done it I get the missed opportunity bug text.

I wish this could all be solved by just use a savegame edit and just set it to max for next update, but I guess you have to do every step(false/true) and cant just set 82/82 and save edit etc...

btw after you found a pearl and given that to the friends daughter, are you supposed to get a scene with the other two girls when you dive with them? I noticed I have never found another pearl since that first one and I have not had any opportunity under the water with the other two girls

You should be able to do diving for pearls with each girl multipal times. There is only one pearl though so far through ep-3 as far as I can tell. There are Cap Points also for all the girls I don't remember the cap for them though and remember at the moment that the fly points are not implemented at this point but will come into play some how later ( I think )
I too have seen "opportunity missed" a couple of time bad just played on. There is something in the coding maybe that troughs that message that isn't really there I think that you can still advance to ep 3 without all of the bookmarks, and also think there is or will be a chance to make them up some where else ( that I absolutely do not know for sure )
Setting the Stats up higher doesn't seem to do anything as far as advancement goes. I think that the Dev is working hard on improving the help function as well as other things for the next episode or two. It is time for things to start spicing up I think.
RFR was a slow starter with some hoops to jump through for the MC also.

In case anyone else gets stuck in the same place (or if Bob hasn't found/fixed this in release 4) I was stuck on 55/58 on ep 3 so did a bit of digging and found a bug which makes it impossible to proceed - you can get into a state where you can't trigger event e3_29 which in turn blocks 30 & 55.

The condition for triggering 29 is
if hour >= 10 and hour <= 13 and episode3 == 1 and nightdress <= 4:

but it's possible to get to nightdress 5 before doing event 29! I assume the condition should be:
if hour >= 10 and hour <= 13 and episode3 == 1 and nightdress >= 4:

If you use the console you can check if that event is blocking you and set it to complete if it is

 

[Ellahn]

Ok this is madness. The code is a mess, I have no idea how the hell anyone can work like that....

But that's reality so screw it. For some reason 3 of the 76 events in Episode 2 are empty here, they never trigger, and thus never increment event counter, may have to do with compressed version of something, but this means it's virtually impossible to get 74.

Also, to try and make some sense out of this madness I put together a half-assed kinda-mod-thinggie. No idea if it works for everyone or whatever, and to be honest I don't care all that much, but this lists all friggin events, with lines of code that lead to said event, meaning you get some context. Is it perfect? No it isn't. The requirements are still a mess. Still, this helps somewhat, and the only way to do a good job here would be to refactor half of the crazyness in the game files.... Seriously AT LEAST put all events in a list and get the number of events by counting the events that are marked as done... Like e2_events = [0, 0, 0, 0 ...... 0].

Well either way I just wanted to point out that the art is amazing and the story is great but the code is a nightmare, so bugs and quirks and stuff are a given. Extracting this on game folder will put a "Cheats" text on bottom left of the screen, clicking it will bring up a menu with a few kinda-helpful stuff. Missing Events only works for Episode 2 for now, and you will probably have to check julias_events (Or others) manually to figure out some stuff, but hey, at least there will be some info...

Also Celaviegroup seriously you need to do some refactoring ASAP. God you must be going through hell dealing with bugs, seriously, nobody deserves working like that, especially since it's totally unnecessary. Ok, Ren'Py probably pushes you towards madness, but it's always possible to improve things, and I'd be happy to give you some pointers, I don't usually do Ren'Py but I've been coding for some good 20 years, and I just made sense of your code (and figured a way to check it automatically) in a few hours, so it's not like I have no idea what I'm talking about...


p.s.: Oh yeah, I actually wrote a parser that extracts events from the code. I'm not attaching it here 'cause it's not supposed to run with the game, I just used it to generate the json, still if anyone's curious, load each .rpy file and evaluate the indentation to create a tree. The tree is saved as JSON, then the mod attached here traverses the tree to find where events are changed to "1", and prints all the parent nodes and context leading to that. Thus, for each event you basically get the lnes of code that will be executed and what is necessary for them to trigger the event, including conditions you have to fulfill and choices you have to make.


I may improve on this, or not, or whatever. But if anyone's interested in the parser just ask, and if anyone wants to changes this or whatever, feel free,

 

[BartPS]

Let me clear some things up.
1.There is a difference between v 2 and 3 in respect to clicking on the MC when girls are an option. In V 2 there are some events where you have a choice that you have to click on them both at different times. In V 3 there is only one time you need to click on the MC but it's the only one to choose so you can't miss it in V 3.
2. You have to do the beach scene followed by the bedroom scene with all the dresses just like in V 2. That includes "going farther" 2x once you start groping Julia's breasts. That's probably where the most grind is involved especially if you miss one dress.
3. The best way to get the kiss is to join Julia on the beach at 10:00 and put lotion on her making sure you get to her butt. If everything is set up right you then immediately go back to the beach 11:00 and you should go diving with her. Once you have saved her she should reward you with a kiss. If not then just do it again at 12:00. If it doesn't happen then all you can do is repeat it the next day until it happens.
Edit: 4. I found that if you get the dreaded "missed opportunity" it is usually clicking on the beach and find Julia doing naked yoga in the trees behind the bungalo.
5. The fly counter resets to 0 if a girl kills it. I always make sure if that happens I just go back using my mouse wheel until it doesn't get killed. Some of them have pretty tricky timing. For instance with Ida and Maria on the rocks (what a drink that would make-pun intended) to max that fly scene you need to click on MC as soon as you see Maria's tit the second time. You can do it when you first see it but better if it's the second time. That's definitely the hardest one to do. I'm not sure if you can get the fly counter back to where you had it I never had it reset to 0 doing it that way.

As the famous pig said "Tha tha that's all folks" I think.

That may well be the most useful post in the history of ...

... F95ZONE
... porn
... humanity
... the Cosmos

I feel like I have *some* hope of regaining my sanity now.

THANK YOU!!!

Hmmm - I can only say that 90 % of bugs that have been reported to me have been related to mods and not my way of programming. Mine is for sure not perfect - not even close to be perfect, but I don't have months of time to make new episodes besides my 900 images that has to be made every month. I could make lot of improvements in the code but in that case I have to let my supporters down - and I don't wanna do that.
