Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.5258] [Kompas Productions]

[mattius77]

Yeah, I'm clicking on the bars on the phone, but nothing's happening.

I'm not running any mods (none of them are updated to .19 yet), and only have the incest patch applied. Started the playthrough in Cheat Mode.

 

[Jokerzwylde69]

Just had a really weird issue/error. I inadvertantly advanced the Roxxy quest past Clyde leaving before I unlocked Daisy. In this save Jenny was pregnant. I started a fresh game in normal mode as I don't like cheat mode and on day 3 the discussion with Jenny and Debbie about who the father is going on in the kitchen.

 

[Jokerzwylde69]

is there a way to reset the achievements. I assumed deleting all files related to Summertime saga would do it but alas it has not. I reset the cookie jar, deleted the game files and the files in user/appdata/roaming/renpy; restarted the computer did a fresh download and previously earned achievements are still there

HaHa Jokerzwylde69, I have noticed over time that Ren'Py can do strange things with respect to save files; one example is that if you delete everything in the save folder but not the in game counterparts then you can sometimes still 'load' the deleted saves; or in another example if you copy the same game into two different folders, then you play one of the instances and make saves whilst you play you will find that the other instance of the game in a different folder 'knows' about the saves that you have made in a completely different file directory. The latter example totally screws up attempts to have, as one simple example, the love and corruption paths of a game to be played and saved separately. So imo using Ren'Py is not as straightforward as executing an exec for example.

I really enjoy playing Sumertime Saga, but sadly in its current state it is not possible to play the game through from the beginning. During the past few days I have played the game from the beginning three times, on the first play through I used the hints on the phone as the primary guide, on the second I followed closely TCMS's guide and on the third I followed closely DarkCookies guide. Every play through ended at a game breaking freeze and going to an earlier save and following a slight variation of the events also eneded in a game breaking error (not necessarily the same one), one of many examples is when I finished the first Yoga night I could not get out of the gym. I would strongly recommend that DarkCokkie stops development and take some time out to make root and branch revisions to the code (possibly with help from an expert programmer) to eradicate the many logic errors that appear to exist. Sorry to be harsh about what is otherwise a great game.

I haven't tried to play the game without the cheats maybe that will help.
This never happened in the older versions.

 

[andrew david irving]

Hi dariop, yes you are correct I guess for completeness I should repeat each play through without using cheats ... sigh... later this week maybe and start with the DarkCookie guide ... However, I suspect many players use the cheats, in which case the software still needs a major revision imo ....

Edit: thinking about it doing a DarkCokkie guide play through with no cheats will not work ... the problem is that you have to work on and complete one characters path at a time, Jenny, then Debbie, then Diane ... etc to avoid known bugs ... but you run into problems immediately on the Jenny path because you need to get many pairs of used panties from different characters which only become available after a given amount of the 'other' characters path has been completed, i.e. you MUST play several characters paths simultaneously - which contradicts the ways that the presently available guides have been written ...

try deleting all saves and the persistant data or uninstall the game from your computer and delete from the recycling bin, then redownload

 

[Sothyr]

Well, it is difficult to find relevant and new bugs if people keep repeating already fixed ones (stuck in gym after Yoga for example) over and over and over and over... sometimes up to three to four times per page although someone already mentioned that it's fixed one or two pages back. It also drowns out people like srksrk 68 for example, who mentions his mod fixes the issue you suffered from (the last time here).

It is also worthless to report a bug, without telling which game version and which Operating System was used.

 

[rdblev]

Numerous code errors and game must be restarted after each upgrade. During my (at least) 5th attempt to play from the beginning I found yet another can't continue situation: When taking the pie from my mother to my aunt she is not in the shed and once you enter there is no way out. That is when I decided to delete this error filled mess. It is a shame no attention is being given to correcting the numerous coding errors because it is a great game in every other way.

 

[FR915]

hopefully there will never bee ntr in this game

It just doesn't seem to be that kind of game.

MC doesn't need any NTR. He's getting enough as it is, more than enough.

that is true

Knowing the way DC usually works probably not, at least nothing that would satisfy those who like NTR.

No one imagined that there would be a trap in this game ... and there it is.
The developer is slowly trying to please as many audiences as possible.
It all started with ethnic (common) fetishes: Okita (Asian), Ms Ross (Brazilian).
Then religiosity: Helen, Angelica.
After that, unusual fetishes have started to be implanted:
Granny (Roz), Trap (Eve).
Sorry guys, but NTR is simply destined for this game.
It would simply be epic if there were NTR with Sara. But maybe they start with Annie's mom.

I haven't had any issues with the Mac version.

what OS is your system?

 

[srksrk 68]

has anyone problem like my ?
when i load game and go to school i have always start scene then go principal and locker room boys then alhletic so i cant go athletic (i have finished quest) and nothing to do cant exit school, can only wait for fix it

The game seems broken there. I already filed a bug report on their bug tracker. However, I started a new game and it looks fine so far. Just make sure the first time you leave school (when it mentions you need to speak to Ms. Bissette and you automatically speak to Erik outside) that you can enter school again and it does not throw you into the loop again.

So imo using Ren'Py is not as straightforward as executing an exec for example.

That's not strange, but only not very transparent. If you have two instances of the game installed, there are three save folders. One in each game's game directory, and one in the <AppData>\...\game directory. The last one has the highest priority, the first two contain data only visible for that game instance only. Until you save a game again, at which time it will move into the third folder.

 

[mattius77]

Honest question: I do not have much interest in things such as traps in pr0n, but if you have to affirmatively opt in to see it, is it really a trap?

 

[joaodasdesgracas]

Gotta say, while I'm usually a big of the routes taken, Eve's was... disappointing. Grace and Odette were fantastic characters, very distinct and with quite some potential, yet despite being teased and involved for the entire route, the MC barely has any meaningful interaction with them, and when we finally some development between them... that's it. Just that is enough.

Meanwhile, with Eve theres this pretty great build up, but the Party being the climax is just terrible. There's no actual conclusion like with the Contest + Dexter fights for Roxxy, or Diane's route where you get the barn. It just plateaus there and it lacks more meaningful interactions. With Roxxy we see strong character development and a very active MC doing stuff, and having his own personal growth to stand up to Dexter and learning about Roxxy. Erik also had his finest moment there. Meanwhile Eve is just the MC being flustered and praising her, with resulting her learning she's pretty. (I get the feeling this works much better with her being futa/trans because tropes, but I'm not into that so I didnt go that route). All in all, while I wanted more Roxxy content because it was so good, it feels like a 19.5 is needed to flesh out something more definitive for Eve, Odette and Grace - preferably it coming to a head MC is sleeping with them, Eve bissexualness and Grace's somewhat growing crush on the MC, and MC's long term plans with Eve. Without that, it just feels like we reach two plateaus.

Why the progress tracker don't update ?

I agree. Although I didn't mind Eve's personality change that many people seem opposed of (I actually...enjoy the more 'timid' personality, after having gone through Jenny and Roxy's routes it was kind of nice to have someone a little more chill...and besides she was more than happy to jump your bone once you two hooked up anyhow) but it definitely felt...either rushed or incomplete.

I have no idea what DC's plans are for after a complete cycle of characters; is he re-visiting them and adding/changing them based on another set of polls, or is what we have all that we're going to have? Because I can say that Roxy and Jenny's story feels more complete than Eve's without a doubt. And Mia's too.

It's a shame though, it doesn't sound like we're getting 0.19.2 or 0.19.5, sounds like they're jumping full on into 0.20 based on the Discord.
