No, not without modding the game. (To modify it, replace any CGs with the old style in game's directory after UnRening it. This will only get you so far since new CGs will be created to the current visual style of the game.) The team is trying to bring a similar style to the CGs in the game so that it doesn't look like it's been hacked and duct-taped together from a wide variety of sources and styles. In fact, existing CGs will be touched up as needed to bring them in line with a similar visual theme for continued consistency. Personally, I approve of this move as it makes the game look a lot less amateurish.
Re: Fangirl X'zaratyl
That actually sounds super interesting! More folks interested in the Dirt General pre-Bloodmeen is awesome.
Re: Skordred
Oh yes, I forgot that going with a Fuedal-type of system will ruffle Skordred's feathers. As I recall though, he gets over it with time, but it's been ages since I played so it's possible I may be misremembering how this pans out.
Other than with Emma, I don't believe so.
Other NPCs (not an exhaustive list) that are not yet placed onto the table... (Where should they go?)
Draith, Drokk, Francois, Emma, Krug & Snug, Maud, Captain Alain / Captain Alarie, Darla the Huntress, Garforth, Kethar, Koh, Mikael, Nileth, Obelius, Rylea, Shani, Sil, Sister Gwen, Tarek, and Valrys.
Many of them may not even need to be placed on there such as Drokk, Krug, or Sil. They may be dead, are a one-off throwaway character that will not return or will not leave a lasting impact, subsumed by another or another faction, or have little more than animal-like intelligence such as Black Ness.
Well, whilst this is quite dissapointing, it also makes it easier for the MC, as he doesn't need clear nomination and can just proclaim himself.

Making somebody your ally who is willing to betray their master is completely different to simply gaining that person's trust. I agree that Skordred and Cla-Min can become close to Rowan, but I don't think this is enough to secure their support in case of an open struggle between Rowan and the Twins. Like somebody said earlier, probably the player will eventually be able to sway to his side almost every NPC in the castle. But that's in the long run, only in the much later part of the game. I don't think Rowan could gain much support at the end of Act I.
Also, SoC will probably be similar to BioWare's games, where certain morally-aligned decisions divide your party, making some of your companions support you and others oppose you. I'd be willing to bet that gaining support from every NPC in one playthrough will not be possible in any case. Winning over some of them will require decisions that isolate the others.
Regarding X'zaratl and her obsession with Rowan & Alexia... I have my own theory about this. I don't believe we can trust X'zaratl 100%. True, she seems trustworthy and wants our protagonists to love each other even more, but at the same time she is a succubus, a type of demon specializing not only in sex, but also in deception. Whereas in terms of gameplay X'zaratl's scenes serve as a counterweigh to large amount of NTR options, in terms of her role in the plot I don't think she could join the "good"/Solansia side. All her events give the player big amounts of corruption points. This is just my own theory, but I suspect X'zaratl isn't truly in love with Rowan & Alexia, she is just playing with them, introducing them to new fetishes and willing to see how far will they go. Her plan is to corrupt them, not to help them.

I'd have to get the old CGs from somewhere first. I'll see if there's any left in the public build.
Normally I'd be all for style consistency, and I know a few projects which quality was hurt overall by mashing unfitting art together, but old art style is the reason I care for Seeds of Chaos, and it hurts seeing it go.

Apparently I can decompile text but no image or music in this game. I tried rpaextract in another Renpy game and everything was decompiled.

Here, you can try this --
You must be registered to see the links
. Many of the early sets do have the older style CG when compared to the new. (Following that link will obviously be very spoilery for anyone else.)Sotman - I can also attest that many users have used UnRen for a wide variety of Ren'Py games without issue. You're gonna be all good, mate!

Try running it in administrator mode. You may need to change your pathway as well. Not sure if that apostrophe you got there is a ASCII apostrophe since non-ASCII characters does cause issues. Are you able to run the game normally? That's what pops into my head first.
Screenshots can be taken by hitting the Print Screen (Prt Scr) button and then pasting it to a Paint program (to manually save them). You can also set it up to open the Snipping Tool under Settings but that's a bulky way to go about it.
The quickest way would be - Hitting the Windows Key + the Prt Scr Key. It will immediately save an unedited screenshot to your Pictures > Screenshot folder. Alternatively, you can hit Alt + Prt Scr Key to snap a shot of only your active window but then you will also need to manually save afterwards. Good luck and cheers!
Yeah, that's something caused by UAC, odd symbols in your path or folder's permissions, so Back's advice of unpacking the game somewhere safe and running it as admin ought to help.
Everyone's all "deep storyline discussions" and I'm all "when do we get to knock up Cla Min?"

Threesome with Alexia and Clionha IMO.

Anything with Cliohna would be great. Greyhide has so many scenes already... I know he is popular with the fanbase but right now the amount of content each NPC offers is very unbalanced. Cliohna's arc is supposedly finished for Act I, despite having only three scenes (and 4 CGs).

Clionha is fantastic, I hope we can dombreak here in the future. The game hints towards Rowan wanting to do this in her last scene and the prospect is tantalising.
I don't know if I'm ready to manipulate Alexia into accepting that she will have to raise Rowan's extramarital kids. That's borderline suicidal territory.

What do i need (stats wise coruption/relation ) to convince Alexia to have the treesome with his elf secretary ? Becouse some times she goes for it some times she wont. And is there any way to reduce Alexia corruption ?
