Mod Ren'Py Abandoned Rogue-like: Evolution - Expanded Mod

[shiion1]

Can any1 upload the github experimental image pack elsewhere? Downloading 1gb with mega is a *****
Also, thanks for the work on the mod btw, been playin this game for a while now..

 

[itsfickfuckthings]

Github Readme has been updated with new instructions on how to use the Github build.

So i did follow your instructions, but somehow i cant get it to work.
I downloaded Renpy, the mod and the image pack.
I unpacked Renpy, created a folder called "project" outside of the Renpy folder and set this folder as the project folder in the preferences of Renpy.
Then i unpacked the mod in the project folder, unpacked the image folder in the mod folder and started Renpy. But when i do, i do not see the mod under projects. Only the two projects "Tutorial" and "The Question". Does anybody have the same problem? Or does anyone see what i am doing wrong?

Oh and btw: thanks for writing this tutorial! its easy to follow and i dont think its the tutorials fault that i cant get it working, but i would be happy if someone could spot my mistake and help me out here.

Thanks for all the hard work you guys. It's awesome that you all came together to improve an already great game. Any way I can help out?

More help is always appreciated! Shoot me a private message

Hmm that's sounds weird. How did you unpack the game? The path needs to be "Projects\Rouge-Like-Expanded-master". If the game folders content gets unpacked directly into the projects folder it won''t work.

I have the EXACT same issue. Followed it 1:1 and now I still only see tutorial and the question. I even copied the exact folder name from you

Same issue for me ! Without the "game" folder, renpy doesn't find the new project.

 

[osmcuser132]

I had a look and your instructions are indeed wrong.

Ren'Py expects a Projects/<Project-name>/game folder and you need to clone the git repo contents into this game folder.
I even confirmed it by letting ren'py generate a dummy test project and it creates a test/game folder which contains all the .rpy files and has an images sub-folder

The instructions aren't wrong. It's specified that the path needs to be "Projects\Rouge-Like-Expanded-master".

Edit: I've had a look at it and found the problem. When downloading the master build the folder structure doesn't fit the instructions. I'll edit the instructions. Thanks for pointing it out!

 

[Tinymanhood]

If anyone is having issues with the Github build, I suggest taking some time to learn how Ren'Py works. I cannot make the instructions any simpler.

I think what he was saying is it needs to be Projects\Rouge-Like-Expanded-master\game

 

[Tinymanhood]

I think what he was saying is it needs to be Projects\Rouge-Like-Expanded-master\game

Yeah, I found the problem. I was thinking that the "game" folder was inside "Rouge-Like-Expanded-master", but it's not.

And that Little mistake almost causes the third world war u,u

btw that spank sound almost gave me a hearth attack. mr @Tinymanhood you are evil

 

[itsfickfuckthings]

No world war from my side, i was just confused that i could not get the game to work.

Alright, so thanks for the help, i really appreciate it. Now my Renpy finds the project, BUT when i click "launch project" it takes 15 seconds to do anything, and then i get this error message:

Spoiler: traceback

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

Did i click the launch project button wrong or something?
This is my folder structur: \Projects\Rogue-Like-Github\game
Just to give all details: In the game folder i also added a "images" folder and in the image folder there are the folders EmmaBJFace, EmmaBJFaceONI and all the others.

That did it, but now I'm getting an error:

Thats cause the github version doesnt have the preferences archives @Tinymanhood could u take a look at that? Puting the renpy modded folder fix it. But u need to modify 00preferences.rpy

 

[kenshuck]

just dont use the github version. Lets just stop wasting devs time with it. And if the devs wants people to test that version, maybe its better to just put the entire game on github, cause now its unplayable without the preferences files

How to install it correctly?

Everything in the github go into the folder game

All these files on Rouge-Like-Expanded master go inside folder game

Yeah, I found the problem. I was thinking that the "game" folder was inside "Rouge-Like-Expanded-master", but it's not.

I hope now understand why I asked to explain normally how to update the game through the githab. This "simplest" from the words of the developers action in fact does not look so simple

If anyone is having issues with the Github build, I suggest taking some time to learn how Ren'Py works. I cannot make the instructions any simpler.

If just need to start to learn the engine to play the game, then you need to do the following steps. To completely simplify the task, make instructions on how to fix bugs on your own. Then, instructions on how to add new content and characters. And after a while, ordinary users themselves will start making games.
But seriously, the user does not have to solve puzzles how to install the game. Everything should be extremely simple and straightforward. 1.Download 2 Unzip 3 Play
Instead of creating installation instructions and many additional posts on the same topic, it is easier to release patches or update the main link.

 

[Tinymanhood]

The missing "00preferences.rpy" file has been added to the Github instructions.

 

[itsfickfuckthings]

Yeah now it works. Thanks.
You might want to change instruction number 10 a little bit maybe.
10. Create a folder "common" inside Rogue-Like-Github\game\renpy. Then download this file and extract into "renpy-6.99.13-sdk\renpy\common"and also into "Rogue-Like-Github\game\renpy\common".

Cowgirl position is just with Emma and no other girls? even in the "oficial" one?

Already did, but thanks!
