How do you trigger the scene with Katelyn in the Castle Ruins?
According to the unofficial game guide you need to first have triggered her first scene, which requires doing this "Castle chapel, talk to her until all options are exhausted" then once you get that scene you have to "Talk to Kat in the Castle Ruins after her first scene." You really should get the game guide if your looking to get specific scenes or stuff since it has a lot of info on how to get them. There might be some changes cause of newer versions though.
I talked to Kal about that when the scene was first introduced in a previous version of the game. The scene is bugged for most people. I don't know if whoever was coding/bugfixing this time around had the triggers for the scene fixed or not. I've been to busy irl to play test this version like I normally do. If you want I can send you my save file with the gallery unlocked, only up to version 5.0 the 5.1 scenes aren't added. And you can view the scene with Kat, Clawyn, and the Male MC through my gallery.
The gallery still has bugs this version, so you might not be able to unlock all scenes on your own. Even after completing the game. Redknight hasn't finished everything for the gallery yet. I don't know when the overall gallery will be fixed before the final update down the line.
i have a q symbol for tarric but i just get the same answers that i got before the q was there
That bug has been in there for years. I pretty sure someone on patreon told Kal about it some time ago. Some people get it and some don't. So it flew under the radar as a bug for a while.
My game won't let me go to sleep in the castle because it triggers the broken mission where u need to follow the shadow, help?
Is that the lead in to one of Clawyn's sex scenes in the tent outside the castle? Try the game again, and get out of the room, and head outside to the throne room and then the tent.
Don't tell me I have to restart the game to get this two new NPCs..... I'm in act 3 right now.
Bonus question, is there a way to extract all the pictures from the game?
You shouldn't have to. The devs for the most part make all updates backwards compatible, so even if you're in Act 3 you can go back and do scenes that were unlocked even in Act 1. Well with the caveat of not being the early Oakshire scenes. Those are on a time limit do to the nature of the story.
As for extracting pictures, make sure your computer's file explorer has hidden files/folders visible. Go to your RA game folder, go to "www", go to "img", and then there's a hidden folder called "pictures" that has all the games images in it. Even some cut scenes as well.
