The art here seems like a great candidate for AI. Especially if it's drawn over or just used as a guide. There's definitely some quality issues with the original art produced just for the night mirror version, but I'm really glad you're trying. Thanks!

If anyone could get a working model that would be amazing… I’ve definitely looked into it but it’s proved beyond me (months ago).

I'm very pleased it's coming together well enough, now it's getting intense and i love the trifecta of standoffs between everyone! I just like the ending #1 side of things, reminds me of Phantom Liberty. The other one? Totally wasn't expecting that! The loose end getting tied off was pretty sweet. I can't wait for the next installment.

Nope, sorry. The script fix didn't work. Neither did the patch or re-downloading. 3.8 works just fine, it's just 3.8P2 that starts then instantly crashes right after the loading screen finishes. Thanks for the help though, and great job keeping the game going. I applaud your work.

Alright, I have one last possible suggestion. It seems like something in the engine update might be the problem? (I mean again, no error so, hard to really know... it didn't happen to make an error.log file by chance? Same place as the log file if it did.) But this is slightly more of a hassle...

Option 1 is to not take the engine update. In this case, if you still have a copy of r3.8, download the "Patch Only" file, and instead of using the whole thing, unzip ONLY the "game" folder contents, this will keep you on Renpy 8.0.3. You do have to do one more minor step, and that is getting rid of the only file not compatible with the previous version.

Once more go into "../RMAWH-r3.8-pc/game/scripts/" and delete these two files: "tts_subs.rpy" and "tts_subs.rpyc" and try running the game. You'll miss out on the amazing power of auto-advance and self voicing working together... but that's about it.

Alright! A few days after release, and for the most part, things don't seem to have exploded... I haven't had to make a bugfix (knock on wood), so that's always a big plus. Over the next few days, a new status post will go up for details on Part 3, and I'm going to do some open testing for the new Mind Blowers to get some player feedback, so keep an eye out for that if it's something your keen on trying.

But, before any of that, I want to ramble (like, ramble, ramble...) a bit about Part 2. If you don't care about the behind the scenes stuff, this is your moment to dip out. But if you want a sneak peek behind the curtain (no future content spoilers, all (mostly) about Part 2 development (so... I suggest having played Part 2 before looking at spoilers about it)), then hold on tight because here we fucking GOOOOOO!

Anyhow... I hope you have enjoyed this extra peek into a bit of my madness, and that Part 2 was fun (I mean, it's all doom and gloom, so maybe "fun" is the wrong word... liked it?... didn't hate it with all your heart?). I know the art quality isn't the same as Ferdafs... but I mean, I'm doing the best I can with the skills I have. It was never, ever, my intent to work on the project the way I am now, and the only reason I am at all is because you guys are fucking amazing!

Thanks for playing, thanks for reading, thanks for being awesome!

I looked into it today myself also. There are some existing things which are of okay quality, it's probably possible to improve. However to actually get anything meaningfully NSFW (especially since ferdafs changes the proportions A LOT in his scenes) it would need to be trained on the game art, which there just isn't enough of. Kind of sad, but that's probably the result. The technology isn't quite there yet.

First guess is most likely a render issue. With the game open, press "Shift+G". By default the game usually uses GL2, try switching to ANGLE2 and restarting. If you're still encountering issues, see if there is a log or error file in the same directory as the .exe, it can often have error info in it to help troubleshoot.

Alright, YOLO! We're doing it now! (I mean... if you want...)
mb_beta1.png

I am looking for some players who are up for giving feedback on this new system (or, really anyone who want's to fuck around with it).

Attached is a small patch to change the gallery of the existing game over to the new Mind Blower system. This also contains a way to roll it back too, so if after tying the new one, you think, this is horrible, I need my sexy Nancy model back, you can just drop in the files and put it back the way it was.

I am looking for a few things here (feel free to give me more (or... less if you just want to try but don't want to help)). Biggest one is missing tags. There is limited space for tags, but some might more more/less important, I haven't fully checked every tag just yet. So let me know if scenes are missing tags, even ones not listed.

Also want to know what you think overall of it. Is it better? Worse? Any feedback is welcome!

Lastly, this is not set in stone as a for sure thing. And it might (will) go through several iterations of tweaks and improvements before release.

Hey NM I haven't played the update yet but I just downloaded a fresh install along with the mindblower patch and selecting any button on the new menu causes a renpy crash for me.

I checked it a bunch of times this morning and, naturally, it never threw and error, because why would it...

I see the bug, fixed it, and put up a new rar file with a correction. Thanks for spotting this!

I love this Renpy version so much and I am thankful for any continuation/ending provided to the game if Ferdafs abandoned the game, but to be honest I was underwhelmed by this first part.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Anyway, just felt like sharing some feedback. Unusually negative this time, sorry about that. This game (which I've exclusively played on the Renpy version) remains one of my favorites. Thanks for the work of love Night Mirror! I look forward to the future updates!
