Ok...that explains it. As I said, I had to add a bunch for codec packages in my Linux/WINE set up just to get animations working. The thing is, that if I set the slider to any speed higher than about 0.10, the video becomes very choppy so I just stopped messing with it. I'll try that in a few and see if the scene progresses as it should.

So far...it seems that Laura, Nora, and Amber all produce this loopback. But again, I'll check.
Also Hana has some events where you have to speed up the animation...
however we are not supporting completely Linux/Wine/Crossover, so if you encounter any of these loop video bugs, please disable "Play Videos" into game settings, so the event will be played without any problems.

I ran through this one on Linux/Wine and had to install a hell of a lot of extra codecs just to get the animations to play. I don't know what the dev used as codecs...but wine reported back missing gstreamer quicktime plugin.
Be grateful that Faerin doesn't use Unity's build-in video play or you won't see any animations.

Not sure why you had to "install a hell of a lot of extra codecs", because all you have to do is:
1. Install corefonts via Winetricks.
2. Install K-Lite Codecs via Wine.
3. Set your Wineprefix to Windows 7 via winecfg.

Seph...that FAQ is quite helpful. I didn't see it before so thanks for putting that info out there.

Though, intentional feature or bug or whatever you have, you can usually find your solution quicker than asking, especially if you don't play the update fresh off the oven, because odds are somebody else has encountered the same. Two or so keywords into the search function (like "NTR avoidable", sorry, "Laura loop") will give you a dozen or so posts. Not all relevant but from the shown bits of text you can easily identify a few and can immediately continue playing.
I'm still relatively new here and I didn't realize I could narrow the search by thread. I see that now and that info will prove to be valuable. Thanks for initially answering my simple question quickly and concisely without attitude... After all, there's always a learning curve in a new environment or process. One bit of useful information is worth more than a million pointless complaints about nerve of someone daring to even ask.

Oh...well, I didn't see Seph's FAQ link at the bottom of the OP. I just took a look at it and found the bit in there about Linux/WINE citing the codecs...about a penny short and a day late.

Glad to say everything is going great now. Really a well done management game so far. This Faerin dev is pretty talented.

Some of the information in the FAQ (like for Linux and MacOS) may be out of date. Most of that information was copied and pasted from an install guide I wrote for MotH a few years ago. So I don't know how accurate the Mac and Linux portion is in the MwM FAQ I wrote.

Hello there. I've been playing an earlier version recently and there was no reason to load it. After I finished the threads of the main characters and one guy, as well as the other, the next versions have too long to load the game. I ran Mystwood Manor v.0.8.0 error in loading, version v.0.8.1 error in loading, does the current one have the same, because I do not know where the error may be, if the previous version 0.7.3 works without resistance. Did we also have a problem with version 0.8.0 and version 0.8.1? bandicam 2022-04-22 05-21-37-585.jpg



Because in each of these versions, it has remained on the same loading since it was turned on. Help.

Without looking at the player log, it's hard to determine what is causing that as it could be either:
  1. Game's path may be too long.
  2. Missing Visual C++ Redistributable.
  3. Using a cheat mod.

Hey Sycho. If you ask for point 1, I have the game in the folder and on the C partition, and on the desktop, I refer to Mystwood Manor (where the game is), point 2 when it comes to Visual C ++, there is no problem here, because the previous version (as 0.7.3) was not a problem and 0.8.0 and 0.8.1 already because of too long loading, and answering to the 3rd point, as far as I know, cheats are available with the game, but I already have everything collected, and so much collected from the cash register guests I don't even use it.
P.S. From what I read in the comments, will the game be on Steam ?. Because only now I noticed that the predecessor, as Faerina's game, is there, and I would like to buy it if MM also appeared on Steam.

Well, again, without looking at the log, I can't tell what is causing the game to hang on that screen. If you could post the player log (not the player_prev log) here, I will take a look at it. Use the Windows + R keys and paste the following in the Run box:
%userprofile%/appdata/locallow/faerin games/mystwood manor

You may need to put the log in a zip file and attach that. Also, include your main save as well and I'll check that too.

Also, go into Control Panel >> Programs & Features. See if you have the following Visual C++ Redistributable runtimes installed (see attached screenshot).

Yes, cheats are available in the game, but there are mods floating around on here that cause various issues with the game, sometimes (but not always) causing the game to hang on the loading screen.

And yes, MwM will be available on Steam soon, but there's no set date yet when that will be.
