VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[PaxHadrian17]

That makes sense. I think I remember that mentioned somewhere (in game?). Ah well... I patched it for now and the problem is gone. I like the game but... this whole "I need to rework the game" trend is a plague... though I will enjoy it, I can also do without it, and this illustrates why.

I agree with you if the 'rework the AVN' is just intended to extend the time supporters are paying for something.

In this case though, Ocean was very upfront about the rework - it was all in support of a Steam (and now GOG) release.

Steam is a 'go big or go home' opportunity where you only get one chance to wow the Steam audience.

The rework of CHs 1 & 2, coupled with removing music that could not be locked down for an Adult VN, also meant that there was additional work in CHs 3 & 3.5.

Ocean also added in additional content to broaden the Sasha LI path (added during the first half of the CH 2 rework) which will see more development in Season 2 (no specifics on which chapter that I have seen).

We actually lost a number of animations tied to some great music, and I know there is at least one modder working on a playlist mod to bring back (unofficially of course) all the songs that Ocean had to remove in advance of the Steam Season 1 release.

Given the need to make these changes, I appreciate that he found a way to continue moving the story forward instead of coming to a full stop on the story to focus only on the rework.

I think it was the best middle ground we could hope for, with each chapter getting first new content, then the final CH rev getting an added set of reworked earlier content.

The rework is set to wrap up when Ocean transitions from CH 5 Beta to CH 5 full.

Cheers!

a question in the Ch.4.5 Full version there are errors that do not give an image in some scenes, right?

 

[incog44]

Searched and can't find the links for the updated version of 4.5 Full with typo fixes? Any help?

I created a project for the game and done a quick search for it and found it in the following locations and file (except the default I highlighted in red which was what I added to counter this problem). The variable is only ever set in REPLAY code, and as i suspected, it is set inside a menu which is bad practice (unless he used to have it properly defined as you said), but it only took me literally a few seconds to find all instances of it...

Don't know where to report this to, but perhaps someone else can <shrug> the above image should help. I guess if you were talking to NAMI in t he bathroom and you have a choice of who you liked, if you said "Mila" she would become your wing-Nami, but as you said, that was removed, except for the replay code and other instances. In the ATOM editor you can press CTRL+SHIFT+F (Find Menu and Find In Project) to find all instances of any text in the entire project (handy).

Hi, i have snd you a DM about this stuff.

But before I start to harass Ocean about this stuff can I ask you what version from SG you are playing? Is it from the release day of 4.5Full? I'm asking because there was a fixed version released a couple of days later on Patreon as well on SS.

/e

The torrents on RPDL - see my signature - have the lastest fixed version from Ocean. I don't know if the fixed version has made it into the startpost here.

Something I have found just now on discord. It's about the contradictory statements regarding Maja and Victory's relationship to each other.

In this case, it looks like the dev may have removed something from the game but didn't clean up all of his files and properly remove all instances of the variable, if what someone else said is correct.

Night Hacker is correct, the wingnami exception is because the variable isn't declared or set in 4.5 final. The problem is still present in the bugix release.

The issue was raised previously and a hotfix provided by CurtimusPrime92 (does what Night Hacker discussed, will work with non-modded games too).

If you're raising it with Oceanlab, the solution would be to declare the missing variable in Var.rpy, where most of the variables are declared. Ideally default should be used rather than define (define is intended for constants, default is intended for variables which change during gameplay). default wingnami = False

As others have discussed, the issues has arisen due to the rewrite of the first half of Ch2. It worked fine as of 4.5 beta (before the rewrite). Previously wingnami was set during the shower scene early in Ch2, but it was doing so via the old method $ wingnami = False rather than using default to declare it properly.

When Ocean rewrote the shower scene he removed the sections which set wingnami, but didn't remove the subsequent if statements which employ it, resulting in the exception when it tries to address a variable which no longer exists.

I believe this oversight is partly because someone else was previously doing the coding, so Ocean is still coming to grips with the code to some extent.

The hope is gone with that variable In this unreachable branch, that depends on the variable Nami literally promised MC she'll get him laid!

Yes

Look guys, it's not that I'm a big fan of conspiracy theories based on visual similarities between characters. I know, the common pool of free DAZ models that most devs use and whatnot. But don't you think that this bitchy new Isabella girl from the car parking scene looks like the twin of Isabella von Stern from Estate Dominate? Is it just the same model in two unrelated games, or is there something more?

If so, it only shows what an outstanding job Ocean is doing. That's day and night.

Right, she's Eva in SG, not Isabella, my bad. Then it's just model reuse, it's pity, ED was cool and the Von Stern sisters would be ideal "friends" for Bella

I actually corrected my error when I posted about it on here a few days ago and changed my post from "define" to "default" for the reasons you mentioned. A definition is not a variable. It was late when I first posted that and it dawned on me later the error. I think it was because it was after midnight and I was staring at a list of defines so I quickly just made a new one. While define does work, it is definitely wrong for the reasons you stated.

The truth is that they are quite similar, but I'm not going to complain, it seems to me a pretty hot character model

 

[Night Hacker]

Annnd... there are a couple missing images from the game... not a big deal but... I hope the DEV has people properly testing this thing!

I got yet another exception error... and again I fixed it. There's a missing file from the game, this time rather than an image, it was a sound effect "CameraShutter.mp3" that causes the exception. Thankfully, I just happen to have such a sound effect from one of my own games I made. I converted it to an MP3 (I use OGG) and copied it into the "game\music\SFX" folder where it was missing from. I'll attach my ZIP of it here if anyone else has the same problem. Just unzip this and copy the MP3 into that folder and it will work fine (sounds good and fits in nicely with the game as well).
