SanchoGallery populated:

I started the ChoiceGuide but then realized I need to go back and insure your imported alt-character names populate into the gallery scenes. They do NOT in the unmodded VN (I thought they did before but they don't) so I sort that. I've notified the dev team with this and a few other minor bugs... I've nothing serious yet but won't really know until I fully populate the ChoiceGuide.

I loath playing under an alias. I am the MC and the ladies are my LI's
The naughty gals's names must ring true to their nature.

You are a gentleman, you are!

I'm actually fixing to write up a PM for the dev team on this. I had to revise the "import" button feature so that I could bring it all together correctly. It's apparently been borked from the very beginning of imports starting in Chapter 2. I've now sorted it all correctly.

For those curious WTF we're getting at here... take this example:

You install Ch3 for the very first time (you've never played it before and therefore have no persistent file(s) on your system anywhere). In either the VN's scene gallery or SanchoGallery you'd always get the default LI names for Sis/Cuz/Kristine (those 3 specifically). An easy way to demonstrate this is via SanchoGallery's scene filters which pickup on these specific persistent naming conventions. This is after a fresh install on a clean laptop PRIOR to the new "Import" fix:

Again, this is in the VN's gallery and SanchoGallery (they use the same persistent file of course).

The only way to have the names recognized prior to my import fix was to go into either the Tablet or SanchoCheats and act like you wanted to rename each of the three characters (you don't have to actually change them, just go through the motions). This now sets the persistent files variables for those three alt-character names.... meaning you're now good to go. BUT, this is confusing and non-intuitive... it SHOULD be done via the "Import" process.

I've done just that. The following is AFTER a fresh install on a clean testing laptop and importing my save (same process I did in the previous pic but this time with SanchoMod's Import Fix):

Note that in my import "Sis" is "Candy" and "Shortcake" is "Chloe". I apparently didn't fuck with Kristine's name.

The fix is easy for the VN's scene gallery. I had to code some extra for SanchoGallery due to the filter database requiring updates after imports, etc but it's done regardless.

I know it's a bit confusing but just know the above is a massive quality of life feature that (hopefully) you won't even notice since it should be this way from the get-go... it should have never been an issue.

Regards.

Doughnut Notifier 2.0 done.... well, who cares about the doughnut in this pic

Remember, the audio cue for the doughnut finder and peeping toms are directly correlated to the mod's audio slider:

 

[indio68]

is the mod updated already or not? thanks

 

[Sancho1969]

is the mod updated already or not? thanks

I'll update the OP and post an update notice like always once complete. It will be today though so fret not bud.

 

[Sancho1969]

I'll grab a whiskey and start code cleanup:

 

[Sancho1969]

Whoa those horses.... I have an idea.... I'm going to code in a choice for you to decide whether or not to get the Svetlana scene during play. It'll be like a SanchoSplit (basically a cheat) as this option is only available for those players who are NOT on the Sis, Cuz, and Ashley paths (to get the scene you must not be on ANY of those paths at all).

Challenge accepted. It should only take me a few minutes to sort out... bear with me.

 

[Sancho1969]

Because that's how we roll:


Which leads to:


Hyperserver , don't snitch on me to Dots

Dude you are awesome

SanchoMod Update (Ch3 v0.01 Extras)

Go get you some.

Links in OP and FAQ are updated accordingly.

If you enjoy my work once you've had time to check it out, consider leaving a vote and/or review so others might benefit from your experience. Positive or negative, all civil forms of rational criticism are welcomed and appreciated. Your feedback matters. Regards.

BestSumy I'll take "awesome" but shooting for "goat"

Y'all guinea pig it while I make a post for the VN...

I've just seen your mod is finally part of the OP of SL. I like this a lot!

Take a screenshot... it never lasts long there. It'll get bumped out sooner or later just like a few other VN's (I'm looking at you BaDIK, etc) where I was in then all of a sudden bumped for someone else's mod. Happens all the time, the life of a blacksheep that fights for site members doesn't make me popular with a few moderators tbh... especially since a few of them are buddies with a certain other modder. But that's all a story for another day

Yep... which is why I "watch" as many of the Sancho mod topics I can (only for the games I like playing of course... ).

Honestly, I thought it'd have been reverted back to the other mod by now... color me surprised. Maybe it's because the dev team now has me on board to test the VN updates pre-release to assist in bug isolation... maybe. A couple updates ago the dev team and I kinda got on the same page and sincere trust began to formulate. /shrugs shoulders

The mod works fine... the problem is on your end. You likely got cute and decompiled the VN. The mod is designed to keep all Players on the same page to ease technical support (there's only 24hrs in a day and I don't have a support team, this is a non-profit effort on my part). If you muck around with utilities and hackery then please don't blame me for fucking things up... I can't control the silly shit folks do on there own. Here's the only supported process:

The proper installation process is two steps, and only these two (for PC in English):

1. Install a fresh/unadulterated version of the VN (no hackery, no shenanigans, just the plain VN). You can do this in a new folder if you wish to retain your existing installation for whatever reason.
2. Install the mod as directed in the OP (place all of the contents of the mod's zip inside the "/game" folder of the VN).

That's it, don't do anything else but start the VN and it will work 100% every time. Try that and report back please.

First please insure you installed the proper version of the mod for Ch1 (use only SanchoMod for Ch1 of course). Otherwise line 7630 is a dev code line being exactly "show sc w2eowhall h57" which is simply an image, then it's followed by a menu choice being:


It took me a bit to figure out how to get to here... apparently you have to not have sex with Vicky on the date, accepted the Wk2 Twins Proposal, and be on Lily's path... but I found where you are.

I find zero issue though. What is not making any sense is your report has this garbage encrypted text in the error:

That leads me to requiring additional info from you as this is not normal. What have you done to the base VN scripts?
