Others Abandoned Sex-Arcade: The Game [v0.2.4] [Sabugames]

[Longmire]

what is going on with this game. more characters pls didnt even read gay story lmao

One can only assume that Sabu is keeping it to the one booth for now, until he gets all the other rooms functioning along with the Power Girl booth, then once all working neatly, he will expand more booths.

Using integrated graphics card? Laptop perchance?

I use a laptop with dual core processor, ram 4G, win 7.

 

[Dr. Jeepers]

Sooo... only first shift for now? LOVE the art(=

 

[Longmire]

When I start the game, this error appears:

Win32 function failed: HRESULT: 0x8007000e

Call: GR_D3D_DEVICE-> CREATETEXTURE2D at Line 423 in file \ TexturesM.cpp

Does anyone know what this error is, has something like that happened to you?

Help me I'm desperate and eager to play this game.:''(

Googling that error message, comes up with a few results.

One of them points to the obvious - the video card you got being the problem. Assuming you have tried rebooting your PC/laptop and the issue still occurs, one website I saw with the error message said that the problem is caused sometimes when you have a 4k monitor of high density display and a crappy video card.

Another option from me: Go into C:\Users\<Whatever your PC profile is called>\AppData\Local\S_A_The_Game and locate the savedata.ini file there.

Open it and look for the following (Yes it says Widow size, that is Sabu's typo, not mine):

[Widow Size]
width="960.000000"
height="600.000000"

Try changing it to either one of the two supported resolutions:

width="1200.000000"
height="750.000000"

or

width="1440.000000"
height="900.000000"

or if you do have a 4K monitor like me, try setting it as:

width="2560.000000"
height="1440.000000"

Anything higher, and the game shits itself (well it did for me when I tried to set it to 3840x2160, but running it at 2560x1440 seems ok for it).

Word of warning, if you set the resolution to anything higher then the default 3 Sabu set for the game, do not go into options, otherwise it will crash.

EDIT: Oh, almost forgot, in this savedata.ini file, the last two lines is where you can give yourself more reputation and money, not that it is worth doing atm, with how empty the game functions are.

Its the card whats important. In its control panel manually set to use the card if possible instead of the auto-select option (which usually the default settings). Try run it in low resolution. This is an issue when your card can't handle this. This is an issue that will require a patch from the dev but untill then, think on this as if your card is "not enough" for this.

if you set the resolution to anything higher

Exactly. So what you have to do, Edscorp, beside trying to manually set the card as the default GPU, you have to lower its resolution and if possible its default graphics setting to low. Unfortunately the game itself only offers 3 resolution. But definitely avoid full-screen.

Should have mentioned that in my upload post but I will do it again (and again, and again...)

THE GAME IS NOT FINISHED YET!
That means it is not finished yet. Which also means that it is not finished yet! It isn't even clear what it will be in the end - hell, I don't think the creator even knows. So if something ingame doesn't work or leads to dead ends: well, that might be due to the fact that it is clearly marked as ALPHA .
I think this release actually shows progress and that sabu is putting everything he's created, up as fast as he can.
The fact that this isn't some stupid 3D-render-stock-model-bullshit but a lot more original doesn't seem to be worth anything these days.

Early access really ruined game dev completly. People getting stuff for free and still manage to complain about it.

Kudos to @Longmire for that google search/bug fix. He actually provided something, thanks!

I managed to open the game, but the menu does not appear anything written, and I click on the 1st option and it stays that way.


What's the problem now?

My notebook hates me!!!!:'(

The fact that this isn't some stupid 3D-render-stock-model-bullshit but a lot more original doesn't seem to be worth anything these days.

The fact is he has 1000+ pledgers and earns 3000+ monthly. You call that "doesn't worth anything". I call it tantrum on your part. Calm down, collect yourself and don't blow this out of proportions. If you release an alpha, you should be expecting bug reports. Feedback. "Oh i love you", is not a feedback and doesn't helps in building up the game into a smoothly working, enjoyable state. There will be people who will always complain about anything. He has to grin and bear it. Its part of this business. Public Relations, customer support is part of this business and you can't avoid complaints, whining, cursing, swearing and threats. Its basically like getting your hands dirty in a workshop.

Early access really ruined game dev completly

Well hopefully not. Just like i was saying, he has to be able to handle this. Its more like you who can't deal with it He really should just accept the simple truth of life that if he wanna work as mechanic he has to get his hands dirty. Wash it down afterwards and leave it in the workshop. I'd say, for 3000$ a month he should be able to take a little heat and you shouldn't take all the complaints on your self either. No need to be overprotective over this. If you are a pledger for him you should instead collect the bugreports diligently and send them to him, while peeling off unnecessary parts so it would remain factual. This way you'd help him, the game and the players as well in the end. Throwing a fit here won't do either

 

[sloppy gonzo]

Any update when he'll add another booth? Looks like Powergirl is a placeholder for now.

 

[RJP]

The game has no sound or just me?

 

[generation_y]

@Ennoch
tantrum? Isn't that a bit strong? I mean you can call stuff what ever you want but the use of that word itself is the exaggeration here.
I guess, that you read it like that, tells more about you than me.

Anyway, just read through the thread again (or any thread to any game on here) and I think you will agree
that there is not much constructive feedback given. Mostly people just complain or want direct answers to their questions as a personal support though they simply could read a few posts above or use search to find the answers already given a couple of times.
And my response has nothing to do with quote: "I love you!" - I was adisappointed by the slow dev speed aswell. You can read that in my posts here so your try of a "fan boy" characterization doen't exactly fit either.
I take my feedback to the dev directly via patreon. Then it actually gets to him.

I can't really follow your thoughts jumping from my comment on the bad effects of marketing strategies of "early access" to things game devs have to handle. What do I care what anybody has to handle in life. None of my business. That's what friends are for. After all we talk about blunt porn, not how to fix world poverty or why a moronic orange filthy grampa rules the free world now.

I just wanted to express that the business model of early access generates a increasinly stupid customer base. A base that knowlingly pays for a product that is in most cases not working properly, far from finished and in a lot of cases will never be but at the same time complain about the very thing. You either buy in on a project because you see your support as venture capital for something bigger, better in the future or you don't because you think it's shit.
In any case leechers don't get to complain. It is a bad net habit which comes from the thickheaded idea that everything should be
on demand and free all the time. And that will end original content eventually.

It sure does. Does very much indeed You totally have the high ground Obi-Wan. Here, have a cookie!ancakeMix:

 

[generation_y]

Mmm, Cookies!
Btw, who is this Obi-Wan? And why is everybody talking about him?

 

[Longmire]

Any update when he'll add another booth? Looks like Powergirl is a placeholder for now.

The last version that had two booths (Power Girl & Korra) was v0.0.9. If you want more then Power Girl for the moment, that is the version you want (until the game is completed obviously).

Ok is there a download link for that version?

 

[Semeicardia]

Ok is there a download link for that version?

The are links for 0.0.9 and 0.1.1 in the OP.

 

[Kylar Stern]

Love the potential of this game, Sabu is a favorite. I am having a problem however, the shopkeeper says she'll meet me outside Powergirl's booth. But all that I can do is select Powergirl and start a shift. Is this where the game stops for now or am I missing something? Many Thanks!

 

[Ennoch]

No you are not missing anything, she never appears, you can simply start doing the thing with PG and thats it. It isn't in the game yet, i assume, because it doesn't break anything otherwise.

 

[Altaveritas]

Did the game get an update? There seems to be a new patreon post.

 

[Torkal]

Great game, love it <3, thanks
