I see folks complaining that every update is a pre-tech update and it feels like the game's been in "pre-tech" for years, but when you REALLY think about it... every single update has been a pre-tech update...

Fucking magnets, how do they work...

I remember the game being 4:3, but that you could also enlarge the window.
It's you. I am on Win10 with SS v0.20.16 and I can minimize, resize by dragging an edge, and maximize to full window. Which video renderer are you using (hold SHIFT on start up, or press SHIFT+G when SS is open):
  • Angle/DirectX allows resize
  • OpenGL allows resize
  • Force Software does not allow resize

Ah, that did it. I'm not used to all the things on Ren'Py so I didn't know this was a thing. Thanks! (y)

Not quite. All this time we have actually been getting the Pre Pre tech updates, so maybe when he does release the Pre Tech update, we might be ready for another round of updates before the Tech update actually arrives.

Not want to make myself look like a bootlicker but after playing it for the first time a couple of days ago I think this project is solid. Not many developers stick to their old project for this long with as consistent content updates as this, so it feels like a genuine passion project rather than a patreon milking money laundering scheme as some people call it. Also the professional presentation aside (which can't be said about most renpy games/vns) the scenarios and the frame animations for it are pretty fantastic and really stick out well given how most eroges or nukiges with animation don't even bother and just add warping effect to still images and call their powerpoint presentation lookin ass "animation".
Whatever opinion the others may have I'm hopeful for SS' future.

If it doesn't bother you... Can you please explain to me in a simple way for what are the other options? The Renderer and Gamepad i have a notion of what they could be for but no clue what the other are for...

Honestly, if a person doesn't know what they are doing - they shouldn't be messing with it. Everything below I found googling Ren'Py to make sure I described properly.
  • NPOT = Non Power of Two textures. Supposedly leaving it enabled can reduce memory usage. It's about requiring assets to have dimensions based upon the power of two or not (2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, etc)
  • Powersave = If Enabled (and preferences.gl_powersave is True) Ren'Py will only draw an unchanging screen (static screen) 5 times a second. If Disabled (or preferences.gl_powersave is False), it will always draw at the full framerate possible. If preferences.gl_powersave is auto, will full framerate in powered device, 5 times a second on battery.
  • Framerate = Game framerate: 60 frames/second 30 frames/second or screen Hz.
  • Tearing = How the game handles graphics if it can't keep up with the framerate (screen tearing or skipping frames)

Does anyone knows how to get the second scene for Kim (yoyo)? I check the cookie jar there are two scenes with her but i am stuck with only the choking scene. MC seems to cant bother her when she has dinner on evening as well.

It's the same scene, just going there a second (or further) time - differences in dialogue.

Do you know what Pre-tech will change? graphics or something else. I'm wondering whether to play now or wait for Pre-tech? What do you think ? :)
