To all the wonderful people concerned about the reworks, Summer's Gone's story is broken up into seasons. These reworks are being done in preparation for steam, in which season 1 will be released. Before the steam release, Oceans wants the renders, dialogue, and everything else to share the same level of quality. He won't keep reworking chapters just for the heck of it. That being said... this update was full of errors. I hope he fixes them by the next updateღ
Well, it's does have bugs. If you have direct contact with him give him this as an example of a just a few of them:

This bit of code is completely bogus... you can no longer be awarded "ToldVictoriaTheyreHot" due to the rewrite yet you miss a large portion of dialogue and potential other variables that do still exist because of the FUBAR:
Python:
        if toldvicitheyrehot is True:  # SanchoMod Note: This variable can no longer be True due to the rewrites. All of this conditional is bogus.
            $ bella +=2
            v "[name] said you're hot." with vpunch
            scene z832 with dissolve
            d "(DUDE!?)"
            v "He was right, you're pretty."
            if bellameet is True:
                b "Uhh.. what the.."
                v "Don't be speechless! Embrace a compliment!"
                scene z833 with dissolve
                b "I-"
                v "Mhhh?"
                scene z834 with dissolve
                b "Leave me alone! Damn girl!"
                scene z835 with dissolve
                v "Hihi."
                d "Why did you tell her that?"
                v "Why not? You never said I shouldn't tell anybody."
                v "And maybe she likes you too!"
                d "I thought you liked me? Why would you want another girl chasing after me?"
                scene z836 with dissolve
                v "I don't want that, but if it makes you happy.. I'm going to help you!"
                d "Ohh Vic... You're way too nice for this world. You will get hurt."
                scene z837 with dissolve
                "She just smiles."
                scene z838 with dissolve

                scene black with Dissolve(1.5)

            else:
                scene z832 with dissolve
                b "Disgusting."
                v "It's sweet!"
                scene z834 with dissolve

If I remember right, Ocean was worried about the upcoming Steam release. First impressions are key and the first two chapters weren't worthy of the quality he has reached in newer content. I can understand his point of view. I think he promised this would be the only rework of the game. Let's see how things will pick up after the rework is done in Chapter 5 full. He has been doing a lot of quality content for the rework, and then all of that work will be only for new content!
yep. I thought something like that would factor in... I kinda get the idea, I mean I actually financially support the game in my sig that is somewhat in the same boat with the upcoming Steam release, but it's not on the same level... there is some rework being done but not months and months of waiting. Anyway, I'll stop complaining on a pirate site, I appreciate the hell out of the devs that make content like this, just wanted to vent a little.

If you DL the patch in the OP that's there at this very moment, start a new playthrough you won't get very far before you get crashes due to the missing files being called for. If you have the correct patch file then fucking share that golden nugget with me since I manually ported the old "Beta" one over and could have missed a bit of grammatical edits from the "Full" v4.5.... whatcha got?
well i went all the way to the end of this update .... so ...

Post that patch file then bud and I'd be glad to go through it for folks... you either got it before the OP was fucked up or you didn't install it correctly and it's not registering during playthrough. If you used the one currently in the OP then it'd crash so often you'd take a sledge hammer to your PC.

i got off...
I had to delete my post... this one is bogus too. Feel free to delete yours as well.

If you start a new game it will crash... it's the patch from Beta.

During the opening scene right after the MC says "...It's a dream, isn't it?" it will crash due to calling music that isn't there:
play music "music/Ambience/Gavin Luke - Summer Memories.ogg"

It's also missing about 1200 grammatical fixes and bug sorts.

Alright, give it to me straight lads: does this update contain just the rework for chapter 2? Or is there anything else? Do we get anything after MC and Nami kiss, and Bella then arrives in his house?

It's just as stated in the OP's changelog: added ch4.5, rework ch2, and a bit of ch3 summarized. See OP Changelog for details.

As an example, the file you posted has this snippet which crashes:
Python:
   d "...it's a dream, isn't it?"
   scene BibiEnd with dissolve
   $ renpy.pause(2.0, hard=True)
   play music "music/Ambience/The Roundabout - Erasmus Talbot.ogg"  # this is a problem due to the songs being removed in v4.5 Full
   with Pause(2)
   scene s1 with vpunch
   pause
The Full version of 4.5 has this as the snippet which does not crash:
Python:
   d "...It's a dream, isn't it?"
   scene BibiEnd with dissolve
   $ renpy.pause(2.0, hard=True)
   $ play_playlist(playlist_Chapter1)"  # this is correct code for v4.5 Full
   with Pause(2)
   scene s1 with vpunch
   pause

ok how about this one
Fuck me, really?... Bud, you KNOW that file is fucked... look at the file dates inside the compressed file... they are from November (during Beta). Full wasn't out in November. You're killing me here.
