can someone pls confirm:
Mykock's Manor Special = the new content for this patch. or is it an extra additionally to the main game, which also has extra content
It's extra content independent from the main game. You don't need the main game to play the Mykock's Manor episodes.

Mykock's Manor exists as fun form of getting feedback for future content development. It is a questionaire in visual novel form.

Haven't tried this game before (and it will take a while to read 900+ pages of chat) but on downloading 0.16.4.3, on first run I got this:

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "renpy/common/00start.rpy", line 288, in script
python:
ScriptError: could not find label 'start'.

Any suggestions? I note that the error message says I am running Windows 10 on an AMD 64 but I am running Windows 11 on an Intel i7.

Considering that no one else is having this problem, I still assume the issue is likely on your end.
In fact, I just downloaded from Gofile, and extracted it with 7Zip, and everything went fine here. So, again, I urge you to use a downloader so it can verify it with the original, and make sure you did not have packet loss or something while downloading.
You might also want to update 7zip, if it is more than 6 months old.
Can confirm that they're not the only one with a header error, and just to be sure I downloaded the game from GoFile six different times, twice each on two separate browsers, and twice through my download manager. All had header errors when I tried to unzip with 7zip (I literally just updated it after seeing your message). Currently downloading from pixeldrain link and from GoFile through the download manager you recommended earlier to see if either fixes the header error message, but both are quite slow, and I've been doing this for like an hour now so I figured I would just get this out there real quick while I wait.

Edit: Now that all the downloads are complete, I can confirm that every single method I've tested has come back with file header errors. Just for extra clarification, this is the file named [ the-headmaster-0.16.4.3-win.zip ], not the mykocks manor download. That one had absolutely no issues.

Not sure which download manager you used, but it might be worth trying the one I suggested, if you didn't.
.

You also might want to check for a virus or spy ware or something then. We have tested both of those and they are fine. I tested Gofile last night, and CaptainQueso tested Pixeldrain with no issues.

Gegecucu the file archive have header errors. At least the GOFILE (Win) download link in the OP from and Itch (Win) as well. You might want to have a look at it.

Cannot find lable start means it can't find the main script. You unpacked it right? If so either the download is corrupted or something else happened with the scripts. Unpack it again (after deleting the old fodler) and try to start. If that doesn't work redownload.

The Win10 seems like that Renpy just can't difference between Win10&11.
AMD64 doesn't mean an AMD processor but the processor structure also known as "x86-64" or "x64 "

Gegecucu the file archive have header errors. At least the GOFILE (Win) download link in the OP from and Itch (Win) as well. You might want to have a look at it.
You should know thats not the right person to notify right? Report stuff like that. I'll gonna go check.

Yeah, after reading your previous comments (before I made mine) I downloaded your recommended manager (Jdownloader2) specifically to test the download through that. When the download finally finished, the file still had header errors when I attempted to extract with a newly updated install of 7zip. Every method I can has been tested at least twice, the header error is consistent across all downloads.

You do that for Itch downloads too?:unsure::p:whistle:
I downloaded Gofile, Mega & Pixeldrain from the OP and the Itch file.
All unpack without trouble. If its only gofile for you guys, its probably on Gofiles side. Here's something a certain Administrator made:

Then, like I said, you will want to run a spyware checker (spybot or something), and an anti virus.
All of these files have been tested and retested, the issue has to be something on your end., but I don't know what it could be at this point. Might try winrar too, just to see.

I used the Megadownloader and compared against the same file downloaded from Gofile. Both were broken. I triple checked by re-downloading from Mega. The uploaded file is corrupt.
Happened to me aswell, downloaded from Pixeldrain, tried to unzip with 7zip.

I'm also getting the header error, so I tried downloading from itch.io. Well, that file also gave me a header error, so no surprise if you get one from here as well.

My solution was to open the zip file first, then extract TheHeadmaster-0.16.4.3public-pc from within the archive. No errors.

It is on your end. Winrar opens it fine.

Also here are SHA-256s from the 4 versions I mentioned earlier:

Now I get what you mean. You can ignore the Header error. It should still work. Its just some left over bytes that 7zip can't tell where they belong (IIRC).

Thanks Bob69, my 7zip still say header error, although extracting works. And Win included unpacker doesn't say anything (just unpacked it).

Name: the-headmaster-0.16.4.3-win.zip
