Quoting this from way back in page 148, but this tells you how to find/delete your save files.
Be fucking careful, regedits can fuck your system if you fuck up.
Might want to add the basic tutorial to the OP, cuz I bet we're gonna get a flood of people asking in the near future.
More than usual, I mean.
The issue is getting fixed in the upcoming bug fix version, 2.1.999 - as stated in the recent post, so we don't really feel the need to add any sort of tutorial for this. We understand registry edits for the ill-informed and non-comp-savvy are quite dangerous and are making it a priority to ensure it's unnecessary for the average player.
(If ya'll want to share saves and try to edit them, that's completely up to you. Although we don't recommend it.)
Furthermore, it's too late in the game for SU's save system to be revamped - ya'll really need to understand that SR7 isn't much for coding - but we can assure you that all of our games moving forward will not use registry saves.
I am surprised with the acceptance of the new "direction" the game is taking. I like that they want to focus on the characters they have now and finish them before adding new girls. I don't like that they are stopping animations. I know what you are thinking, they said, "Until the game is closer to completion," but let's be real, there are 26 characters, one completion per update, that's close to, if not over, 2 years before the game is "Close to completion." If something isn't voiced over this, we will not be seeing animations in this game again. They continuously get more and more patreons and are making a lot of money, and are now deciding to go ahead and make a lower quality game. This game is one of the highest liked games on this website, and one thing it has in common with every game above it in likes, and quite a few below it, is that it was animated. I personally think they are getting rid of the most important thing that gave it its success, to pump out more content that honestly you can find with a simple google search. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of NSFW pictures of each one of these characters on the internet already.
Mercy's animations are mind blowing. This game has some of the best in the biz by far. Now, all of a sudden, they want to get rid of that for faster, but much lower quality, content release. I am actually quite sad and a little disappointed. But, honestly, if this opinion is the minority then there isn't much I can do about it but move on. I am truly hoping this opinion is not the minority so that we can continue to get amazing content quality from this game, instead of pictures.
We're sorry if you think animations are where the quality in SU lies. We don't believe so, and we're fairly certain most other people don't either.
If all you cared about where the still images then sure, we get it, but we're not making games for that demographic.
Also, SR7 is not an animator and he'd be the first one to say as much. That's why the animations were taking a week or more to do and even he wasn't fully satisfied with them - another issue that caused them to be setback and in turn set everything else back.
Honestly, it's opinions like this that kept Smoke and Sunset from pausing animations sooner. Thankfully, most of our fans see the value in SU's core art and writing.
Message directly from Locke: Are you serious?! SR7's work is "low quality" just because it isn't animated? It's better than the majority of those "hundreds if not thousands of NSFW pictures of each one of these characters on the internet." It fits the original art style to a T and tells a story that perfectly captures the characters from the show to boot. You're certainly entitled to your opinion, but damn your viewpoint sounds hella skewed and messed up to me. It's the exact same art quality, just not moving - how the hell does that make it "low quality"?! (Rhetorical question, because it clearly doesn't.)
I'm on the side of no animation, they were never wort the effort IMO. If it were all the same or even only a small increase in the work it could be, but as it is, SR7 could make various images in the time it takes for one animation, and let's be honest they are not very good (which is perfectly understandable for a non-animator). In fact, if I'll probably drop my pledge if there's a time they stop moving forward to work on the animations, because they were never the hook of the game.
@KaiserST you sure Tala's anal 2 is only after the yacht? I should add that to my guide if it's true.
Animations were also never intended for the game in the first place either. We'll go back to them eventually, but not in a way that holds up progress like before. That wasn't in anyone's best interest. We're going to find a better way or get to a point where we can hire an animator to help out - not hold up progress for a week or two just to make 1 animation.
In short, you have no need for concern. We don't intend to do that.
