v.0.12 has arrived too near to the Android 2 GB apk limit and the PC/Mac Full Quality is also brushing the 5GB download, so I decided (with RiamMar 's help) to split the game in parts or seasons (they don't have anything to do with narrative Acts). v.0.12 will create an automatic savegame at the end of the update that will be imported into v.0.13. v.0.13 will be an independent download with reduced size which will be installed in a different folder. Riam will work on a merge patch, which will allow to have everything in the same folder, but now he's focusing on having Part 2 working.what split?

Love to hear it. Sucks when other games are like "new update! enjoy your 15gb file download from a 10mb capped website, suckers!"v.0.12 has arrived too near to the Android 2 GB apk limit and the PC/Mac Full Quality is also brushing the 5GB download, so I decided (with RiamMar 's help) to split the game in parts or seasons (they don't have anything to do with narrative Acts). v.0.12 will create an automatic savegame at the end of the update that will be imported into v.0.13. v.0.13 will be an independent download with reduced size which will be installed in a different folder.

I upload the game to Mega and Pixeldrain (5 GB daily limit for free users), and Gofile and MixDrop (without limit) because of that. Even if it's under 5GB until now, if someone has already downloaded that day 1GB from Mega, they would be unable to download a 4.5GB game. That sucks, so keeping the download size under control was a priority (and keeping the Android apk size under 2GB, because of Android's limitations). This time it was the perfect one to do the split.Love to hear it. Sucks when other games are like "new update! enjoy your 15gb file download from a 10mb capped website, suckers!"
They are false positives. The exe is the same for all the ren'py games (of the same version, 8.03 in this case) and some antivirus have it reported as a virus.Says virus on 2 diffrent Programs and downloads ?
Ya, last update or two I couldn't play as several virus scanners kept deleting the game.Says virus on 2 diffrent Programs and downloads ?
Yea, that seems way tamer then what I've run into, hopefully the new version's exes are not causing the deletion from antivirusThey are false positives. The exe is the same for all the ren'py games (of the same version, 8.03 in this case) and some antivirus have it reported as a virus.
I just uploaded the Exe to virustotal.com and it shows as BrothelHouse.exe because the hash is the same as other games

Reanalizing it marks the same hash and the correct name

It depends on the version. Ren'py 8.0.3 (the current one) flags in two engines. Ren'py 8.1.3 (the next version I will use) doesn't flag anywhere. 7.4.11 (the one I started with) was flagged on 7-8.Yay update.
[couldn't play last update because multiple virus scanners kept deleting it]

[heck even firefox stopped the download in the middle itself!]
Something like altering windows files, registry, and making connections to the internet.
Once I downoad the current version, I'll see if it will download successfully, and unzip without anti-virus deleting it, then I'll upload the exe's and dll's to virus total, but I have a feeling it will be the same signature/flags that the prior updates had.
Does ren'py games even NEED to connect to the internet in the first place? or save files to windows folder, or alter windows registry entrees?
Sure the game could need to read some files from windows folder, and write its own registry, but altering windows stuff is a big nono.
Well, what ever the game needs to connect for the internet for, maybe could be cut out, like is it grabbing ... um.. fonts, or something needed to play videos or something?
Most definately needs to stop trying to alter files in the windows folder or saving files to the windows folder.

I find it strange, many ren'py games have zero to 4 flagged scanners at virustotal.
Some with 1 flag is definately a minor thing judging that it doesn't often alter windows files, connect to internet, change registry for windows stuff, etc.
Maybe the Ren'py software some people use to make their games, is infected itself, and passes it along to their exe, as I've seen many with ZERO flagged scanners at virustotal, compared to others with 1-5 flagged scanners.
Just do it the way the ZERO flagged games have it, ie: they still have videos, and all that jazz, but they don't alter any windows stuff and they don't connect to the internet.
About the internet connection, most games have a menu with links to the author Patreon, SS and Discord.Yay update.

OH MY GOD!!! It's Scarlett isn't it?!! It has to be!! I'm almost positive I recall that the abusive man married to her mother is her stepfather not her father, she'd be the right age too. Scarlett being our sister avoid having to add a new girl to your already generous cast, and in universe it'd be an amazing and welcome surprise for Scarlett give how she was already like a sister to one of our cousins and a cousin to us. Now she'd literally be our sister, and a cousin (of sorts) to our cousins. And on top of everything else, it'd bring her on the same level as Daphne in terms of both committing incest with us. It's all perfect!!On what we learned on the phone from our father; are we getting a new love interest who is our half sister, is one of our current girls secretly our sister? It would be pretty unfair to introduce her to her new family, and then have her be the only one not given the option of getting very close. And if we can date our new sister, how is all this being handled in the non patched story? Like as it stands, our sister and cousins are really clones of strangers etc. Would this just be a clone? But that wouldn't make any sense, because our dad supposedly doesn't know about all the clones and wouldn't have been stealing money to give one a normal life. and to go to college
I was gonna say ...OH MY GOD!!! It's Scarlett isn't it?!! It has to be!!

And here I was feeling excited for figuring it out, party pooper.I was gonna say ...
