nah my game says to rollback. im sad. can u share the version of ur urm?


I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "game/scripts/chapter5Anya.rpy", line 1698, in script
"This...he wouldn't like seeing me here..."
Exception: Could not find font '0x52-URM/framework/Roboto-Regular.ttf'.''
I use the latest version of URM, 2.6.2. Maybe the guys in the URM thread can help you.

development timeframe for this game keeps increasing, the better CG gets, how tf does this happen if not milking, like dude ? Why you take longer when youre supposed to be getting faster ?
i always told you guys thats what you were going to get once you all started screaming "we want animations!" now take it lol.. i hope it takes increasingly more time for each update and that they get smaller and smaller xD

what does increased time between updates have to do with animations? circle, like most devs, pays animators to do it, it takes him almost no additional time.

I know he's taking his time, I member the Shadows of ambition dev actually responded personally to my review and addressed every issue I had with the game. I have changed my reviews cause they are cool people. If a dev is willing to reach out and say "hey i agree these are good points." Thats mad respect from me as a fellow developer.

A LOT.. litherally ALL games doubled their production time after that lol.. games that had 1 update per month or even less time went from that to 2, 3 and sometimes even more.. Paying animators or not.

Because the quality is also massively improving, the standards are increasing.

with a low quality stock background, weird remnants of the old background, generic pose to the stuff he's putting out lately, or the stuff I'm seeing him work on dev chat now... it's night and day. The newer stuff requires often a shit load more time in photoshop, in SD, etc. The writing is also being taking more seriously now as opposed to early on. The thing he's been working on the last couple days for example requires a lot of visual design, but I think once people see it those who appreciate visual design will get a real kick out of, it's professional level work vs the early casual stuff but that takes time.

And no, before it devolves into another back and forth he has no interest in sacrificing quality for speed. I'm not saying you have to agree with the why, I am just telling you why.

tf dude, I never asked for this BS I just want the story to progress.
The story did progress in the last update a lot, openly talking about sharing, Eric getting his first threesome, Sai developing into a cuck, the next photoshoot being brought up. I know very well what you actually want, it has less to do with plot advancing and a lot more to do with one specific fetish. You'll get (some) of what you want eventually, but there is more than one thing going on.

In any case, development is going well the visuals look (in my opinion) better than ever with a visual style closer to what a lot of people liked about the chapter 2-3 window but with some new flair, but I won't pretend it won't take quite awhile to finish.

No I am talking about the speed of producing updates is decreasing, sure quality is increasing but the time frame also increases, there should be a sweet spot to focus on between quality and time especially its AI gen game, so even if after effects are crucial, it still takes alot of time to be developed and each update takes longer than the one before it.

I think people have a wrong understanding of how AI increases development speed. Scenes in this Game are quite complex. Getting them right (let alone consistent) is borderline hard and sometimes cumbersome. Not talking about having the right hardware. It is faster compared to doing everything manually, but expecting a packed update every other week is far from reality

This is a problem with multiple devs.

>put out game
>people support it because they want more of the game
>instead of putting out more of the game in a fair timeline, they expand the scope of the game and spend more time improving quality than actually putting content out

It's a disconnect between the dev wanting to improve their skills / quality of the game and the people paying who want more of the game and would be fine with the original quality of renders etc.
