Maybe because I played the normal version of the game using the save here? I don't know anything about this all I know is that I've restarted the game on story mode plenty of times and it always freezes after the first event with Julia.
I am skimming through it again now, which event are you talking about?

Made it through the whole tutorial...

The reasons that would happen would be one of the two issues I mentioned (long path and V-Sync in the case of Nvidia GPUs). We often find that most players tend to bury their games under multiple sub-folders if the device is being shared with someone else (keeping people from finding out you're playing a "porn game" - I actually had one player complain about that on Discord a while back).

Using a cheat mod. Cheat mods will break the game and actually add bugs to the saves.

Lesser known causes would be:
  1. Video card drivers not up to date.
  2. Anti-aliasing (needs disabled in Nvidia Control Panel >> Manage 3d settings).
  3. Missing runtimes (extract all of the files to a temporary location and run "install_all.bat". It's safe to delete that folder after installing).

Well I installed the latest version of my video card driver some hours ago before playing, my game is not hidden under multiple sub-folders it's not even in a folder it's in D: Mystwood Manor 1.1.0 lol, my pc is not missing the Visual C++ and I disabled everything in Nvidia Control Panel so yeah it's a mystery, and no cheats of course.

"Mystwood Manor 1.1.0" is a folder. ;)

Well, here is a save in story mode, right after the intro.
Extract this to a folder in the Profile folder.

You're welcome, Twistty. Thank you for adding that to the OP. :)

Disabling V-Sync will also also fix some Nvidia issues as well, like if the game doesn't load or stops responding.

Great info ;)

Thanks! Most of the issues that we run into will be listed in the FAQ (including the V-Sync issue). I don't know if the one linked in OP is the current one, but if not, here's the most recent one I wrote. I'll look over it again later and update this one if need be.

Sycho, no it's not, this last one is more complete (PDF version) not the post from Cephea (didn't check that)
Shit. I was afraid of that. I'll take a look and see what needs to get added. I'm in the middle of a tech support issue on Discord at the moment. So I'll take a look and compare the two PDFs once I'm done with this.

Yours seemed to be more complete - so I added and replaced the one you gave to Cephea's post.
Thanks again :sneaky:

Edit - And added it to your post linked from the OP.

Awesome, thank you. I'm just now finishing up on the technical support issue (this one was a doozy). So I'll take a look at my PDFs later this evening.

No problem... :)

BTW, Four hours later and got the problem resolved. :ROFLMAO:

So I have updated the FAQ to include a fix for players using . Here's the updated version. I didn't include this in the FAQ, but if they don't want to delete the recommended file, they could try renaming it. I don't know if that will work though as the player and I never tested it. If the software is installed, they may encounter a black screen during some (but not all) animated scenes. No idea why, but could be path related, perhaps?
