OK, apparently this revised hint message is not clear enough.

You are trying to use an outdated game with the current version of the mod. Either download the appropriate mod for your game version (found in the first post of my thread under "Older Versions" -- not recommended), or update your game to the newest version 0.20.7.
I actually got that error too, with the reason that my version of the main game was v19.x.
I had just copied over the new 20.7.
What made it work was that I deleted compiled .py files (.pyc) which forced the game to re-compile them.

I suggest you build in a tool to remove any compiled python files that have uncompiled sources :)

^ Or you could just stop trying to make a year-old+ outdated game version try to load up last week's update ......

No that would be too much. The recommendation is always to install clean, not to "copy over". This will not even work in all cases because between some updates I would delete some files which would stay if you just copy over, regardless of how often you delete the rpyc files.

I've got like 3TB of games, mostly because I keep a few versions back in case devs decide to nuke their games, like with this game for example, lol. I'm glad I have old versions cuz he's removed/changed so many scenes. Plus I download a lot of games to "archive" them that I probably won't play for years. My paranoia paid off when Patreon went full PC police, I have so many back versions of games that removed incest/sleep sex/hypnosis type content. I honestly don't know how I'd survive on a metered connection lol.
Good thing they are often available. On the website, the creator fails to provide old versions, which is ... not the best choice.

Luckily, this exists:

I had to go back to a v19 to try and fix my saves. For some reason, my old v19.5 savefile WILL NOT WORK whatever I do.
So I have to start from scratch.

I like this game, and it might be wise to re-play it as I am sure (as you mention) that I'd be missing out on stuff from earlier versions.

I was referring to the original game code.

In any case, I develop a porn organizer using Pythin and Django named YAPO. Learning Python, I found out that it is always good practice for a program to remove python compiled files when a new version is detected. Mostly, Python can handle it (I mean the full build, not necessarily the Renpy runtime), but not always.

incest patch update when?

or it works fine with 20.7 ?
I haven't experienced any errors, but I will try to take it apart and see to making a new one if the current one breaks something.

EDIT: I just decompiled the incest patch to look at the code. It does work with any version but it will not overwrite new dialogue from after v20.5.
The patch is written so it "catches" text and replaces it, so no worries, it will never break the game.

Examples provided below so you know I am not just saying something I don't know anything about.

BTW: Only use the additional lines incest mod for now. It includes the v20.5 incest patch so it has everything from v20.5.
If you have the patch-v0.20.5.rpa file in your game folder, delete it.

Code:
translate ipatch strings:

    old "These assholes are terrorizing my friends and I!"
    new "These assholes are terrorizing my friends and family!"

    old "Haven't your friends been through enough?"
    new "Hasn't your family been through enough?"

    old "{i}*Sigh*{/i} I don't know what I'm supposed to tell {b}[deb_name]{/b} about this..."
    new "{i}*Sigh*{/i} I don't know what I'm supposed to tell your mother about this..."

...

translate ipatch jenny_button_you_and_phone_b6af0eb1:
    jenny "What are you, our mother?!"

translate ipatch jenny_button_just_curious_54fddd37:
    anon "Well, we are Family"

translate ipatch backyard_mom_midnight_swim_ee14123d:
    debbie "... Don't get your hopes up, {b}D{#}iane{/b}! Who knows what will happen..."

translate ipatch diane_debbie_sex_hscene_dialog_6553d016:
    diane "Show your {b}Mom{/b} how much you love her.{p=2}{nw}"

I'm somewhere around internet speed of 80-90 mb/s and download speed of 50-60 mb/s. The bandwith limit is around 550 Gb's so that's around 137.5 gb's per floor. I know all 4 floors use the internet to stream videos so that's not a lot to work with when everyone is home all the time. We have to pay $220 per month but split 4 ways it is very manageable. I live in the United States, Illinois if that helps for comparison.
This is an outrageous price for a limited connection, but hey, basically everything else is cheaper in the US. Our cars cost twice, gasoline almost twice, etc...

Sorry for you though. :-/

I pay less than $100 for a 500mbit connection (I could pay $25 extra for a gigabit upgrade). This includes cable TV which, nowadays, is delivered through fiber in Denmark.

Have you ever heard of mega-sarcasm ? By the facapalm and this quoted reply, my wild guess is nope. Just because I wrote some epic trash (copy/pasted from the last few months thanks to the real whiners), doesn't mean I endorse whatever drivel they throw around ................. Also, a basic reading of my past posts would point out I'm against said whiners, some thing you obviously didn't do and just jumped on my bait. GJ though, at least it caught some1
Yes, I dont read every single thing of this thread, let alone specifically what you post.
However, you said this yourself, that quote is copy pasted, and you constantly see peole making that exact argument, making it very hard to spot sarcasm without the context.
I jumped the gun without the whole picture, and I'm sorry for that. This is my favorite H game, but one of my least checked threads, mainly because It's frustrating to check in once in a while only to see a flood of people making arguments like that unironically

Nice 4 posts in 5 mins
This is a very active thread and I didn't expect to have to post more than once. I will do it again, though.

By the way, there is a forum plugin which will automatically combine posts by the same user written within x minutes. Take it up with admin or a moderator.

That would be convenient. I often forget to quote and answer en mass.

So, I just downloaded the latest version, and after finishing the tattoo parlor advertisement stuff on Eve's route, something seems to have bugged for me.
Now whenever I try to go to Eve's place or enter the parlor MC will say that he can't leave, and wonder if Eve has finished changing yet, which I believe is from an earlier scene in her route. Even the hints are from that point.
That of course means I can't progress with her story.

Is there anything I could do to fix this? It would really suck having to start from scratch because of this one bug. 2ce61f29-7fb3-43ff-804d-76d5243e321c.jpg 46765d10-55be-407d-bd43-03148232a509.jpg

Over 3 years for 1st post, nice. You can try to throw around your save and hope the god of mods will deem himself interested enough to have a look and (maybe) solve your case. Or try not saving everywhere. Aside from that, restarting or trying another route while not saving at random might be the only choice

I don't really know the prices for outside the United States but yea I'm very aware of how bullshit our prices are for internet. We could get if a lot cheaper but only for shitty internet speed. That'll drive me crazy. I can't believe how cheap your internet is with cable tv! We have to pay at least $50 a month for cable a month.

What if you delete those three files:

"<SummertimeSaga>\game\cache\screens.rpyb"
"<SummertimeSaga>\game\cache\bytecode.rpyb"
"<SummertimeSaga>\game\cache\pyanalysis.rpyb"
I did a work around by renaming the tomb_02.png to tomb_01.png, it ended up working fine.... it will probably be fine until it calls for the tomb_02.png object. :}

^ She's a secondary character in a 99%+ done route, don't expect much. Aside surprise buttsex cameos (like Odette now), there's little to no chance of her and many others to ever get anything

Thanks for that link, hopefully they have more games besides StS on there. And as someone indicated, it's best to use the multi-quote tool if you're gonna respond to a bunch of people. I edit/delete sometimes if I accidentally post before I respond to everyone I wanted to get to.
