VN Ren'Py The Daddy Plan [v0.07] [ShaddyGames]

[~Merowinger~]

Old saves don't work. Deleted. If one I patron does that anywhere close to this far in, I immediately drop.

In games with much more content, it could be frustrating... indeed.
But I have skipped the known content with TAB in some minutes. (with some breaks for the Answers you can choose)
So what's the matter? Considering this is a very young game and the very first own one from a Modder, it's absolutely ok, if there are improvements to the whole game, which crashes Savegames.
Shaddy is new to developing his own Game, so you are witnessing an upcoming dev learning... Congrats.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to MAJOR changes in the scripts a new game is REQUIRED. However there have only been some minor dialogue changes so you can skip through to the new content. Due to these changes there is no update only download available.

Saw it, that was an unbelievably dumb thing to do changing scripts. Why????? Ruin old saves just for minor dialogues changes? That makes New Coke look like a brilliant marketing idea. Anyone who would think that was a good idea probably needs help to makes sure they put their underwear on right rather than over their head. Variables should absolutely never ever be changed after the 3rd or 4th release or hour worth of play.

Major code changes and only minor dialogue changes .. not ONLY dialogue changes.
But hey, if you can't have such absolutely wrecking inconviniences of a few minutes skipping, maybe just stay away from unfinished games on this site and spare yourself and us the hassle? Because you will have that happen a lot more often, a lot of devs here are coming from non-professional backgrounds, learning as they go... and your whining doesn't help anyone.

Great job in the update to the beginning of the story. It flows a lot better and makes the story make more sense in the universe you're creating. Really enjoy it!

Game would have been fine up until the birthday when all I got was Errors and had to hit Ignore 1000 Times until I got annoyed and Stopped reading, Normally I would Grant a coffee for what I read but since I could not finish past the go kart I think I will pass on the future Updates unless I can get a Varification that it is bug free from these types of Errors with Not finding Images and Code issues Please Fix

At risk of repeating myself, I had no issues at all. Ran through from beginning to end.
Old saves won't work. It tells you that on the OP. You should probably start a new game from a clean install as well.
If you have issues after that, the dev will need more info than "It don't work!" What platform are you on? Are you using a compressed version? Any mods?

What hapen to the VN, it crashes all the time , every time u choose anything, even from the begining. As anyone have the same problem. Im playing the last update without mods.

LOL, Fat lot of good that'll do, if folks are to blind to read that in-game, they'll bloody likely won't read it here either.
But, for being an optimist

Not sure what's happening here but I get some odd alignments on the option screens
The Dialogue section is totally flushed left and can be dragged
View attachment 4169330 View attachment 4169331
and the Extras screen looks a bit mis-aligned, which varies depending on if I dragged the Dialogue screen to the left .
View attachment 4169345 with Dialogue screen untouched
View attachment 4169332 with Dialogue screen dragged to the left

This is a clean install in an empty folder. Saves where deleted, Persistent was kept but even when deleted the same shows.

I had this issue and several errors pop up on first launch as well. I solved it by turning off animated choices - restarting the game and using the delete saves option he added in the extras tab that you showed. After that, I had no further alignment issues or errors. Turning off animated choices fixed the alignment issues and using the in menu delete option cured everything else.

Major code changes and only minor dialogue changes .. not ONLY dialogue changes.

And the point of major code changes? THIS far in??? All that shit should be planned before the 1st release.

It's actually a bit amazing this one hasn't been R7'd off here yet.

Ussually happens from the MOD not being involved after the save as the mod changes some of the code in the save file, Some modders Include a Fix for this if you are no longer using the mod

 

[axittim]

Even when unpacking the game gives errors. It's sad.

Get real you have any idea how many of the games the code has been changed , some saves work others restart needed it's nothing new. There are many reasons for a code change, it's laughable that you think a developer should plan a code change before the 1st release

They shouldn't have to change it after the 1st release. You know, the 7 Ps? Prior Planning and Preparation Prevents Piss Poor Performance.

Turning "Animated Choice" off has totally no effect on the Option screen alignment.
And if you read my post, you'd known I already deleted the saves, even installed into a clean folder so there were no saves there to begin with, only those in the %appdata%/Renpy folder.

 

[cab18+]

One of the few times i don't mind starting over...

 

[wookie ookie]

only those in the %appdata%/Renpy folder.

You need to delete these to just delete whole folder a new one will be made

Your expectations seem to be unrealistic.

1) This is v.0.07. That's still beta. We are a long way from a "first release" which would be v.1.00.
2) Shaddy is not a professional developer with a full team and hundreds of thousands of dollars behind him.
3) Shaddy is not a professional developer with many years of game-creation experience.
4) Even professional developers with teams and cash may implement dramatic changes in code during beta.
5) This is a piracy site where you are downloading someone else's work for free. Entitlement is out of line.

People are free to have their own opinions about things, and that includes being upset or unhappy with Shaddy's work, but an adult response to that involves offering productive criticism while remaining polite and respectful. Some of the comments we are seeing boil down to whining and/or vitriol. Not only is that childish, it is also far from helpful.

Oops. I just realized I was assuming we are all adults, here. My bad.

 

[ShaddyGames]

The alignment issues for the Options screens have been fixed for next release. It wasn't doing it for me on my PC. Ended up having to load the game up on my wife's laptop to replicate. And Yes I checked with ALL font options. It'll definitely be fixed.


Those having issues with Isabel's dress. I'm going to assume you're using compressed or did not do a fresh extract of the game to a new folder. Over almost 2 weeks prior to public release, none of my supporters or beta testers experienced these issues. Though to be fair, the compressed version is not tested.
