Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.7b] [Ron Chon]

[Deleted member 4909039]

This is the correct answer. I'm not a Mac user myself and think it's something about the default way Ren'Py exports the Mac build, but I'm open to suggestions about how to package the Mac builds in a way that doesn't require the workaround!

I'm not a developer, nor do I quite understand what Ren'Py is.

Several executables are not flagged as such in the Mac package. It seems Mac's system default archive utility (Archive Utility) doesn't do anything fancy and simply unpacks them as is, whereas The Unarchiver recognizes that the files in question look like and are in a common place for common executables, and flags them as such. Or something - in any case, they end up flagged properly, and differently than in the zip.

Comparing zipinfo on TNH's archive vs Rogue-Like's, Oni's executables are all flagged properly.

So: maybe try to make sure the executables in the Mac package, eg pythonw, have execute permission?

I'm just trying to get my hands on the BGs for this game as they're really good. Perfect for wallpaper editing.

I think a lot of the "grind" will be made easier once the clothing gets put back in. At least before when you gifted clothing items you got a fairly decent love and trust bonus IIRC.

It seems like there's no longer a way to gain any skill points once you hit level 5. Is there a way in the console to gift more skill points? I want to see what the other abilities that I haven't been able to purchase are like.

Don't know what cause it ,but Anna look like this now, Chapter 1 Winter, meet her in the Danger Room and bang, SL does not work, thing back to normal when restart the game ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Now you will have Kurt bamf in asking what you did to Rogue this time.

The running theme for my current playthough at the moment. One day, I think I'm a special and unique snowflake because Rogue bought me a guitar. And the next day, I get chewed out by Rogue because I bought pants or some shit for Jean.

...Goddammit. This game hates me.

I believe level 5 is the current max atm

Android tablet with 8 GB of RAM, game is becoming slowly unplayable. Spring season, day 30ish, any hookup scene slows to a slideshow and then crashes. Boosting to 16 GB of RAM does not help.

Happens with any 'insertive' action like blowjob, fingering, etc. Image layering bug?

That's weird. I get all three going at once and even the self-absorbed and attention seeking Jean starts up with wanting to date the MC even though she knows he is dating Anna Marie and Anna wanting to date even though she knows something is about to start up with Laura. They all know about each other before I tell them and they don't seem to mind. I get each of them presents and nobody complains about what the other got so far. Did you start a relationship with one and say you wanted to just date them without leaving the option open?

I'm gonna copy the entirety of your post to the dev team but these three I'll address directly.

In the scenes with Rogue Null is holding hands with her quite often as part of the scene (e.g. while studying). Still, the gesture of Rogue is not changing always (e.g. reaching out her hand (which of course does not always fit)) and she often also is still wearing her gloves. At least to see that she is touching the hands of Null with her bare hand would be a nice detail.

This is one of those situations where we plan to use comic panels so to not make the models look warped.

As far as I understand (please correct me if I am wrong) the dev team is quite willing to update already existing and completed parts of the game like Runey is doing it with his Harem Hotel (and I mostly love him for doing this). Therefore just a few thoughts about probably allready completed parts but as it was said it is still pre-alpha and therefore maybe of interest.

If future parts of the game get better, we'll head back to ensure consistent quality throughout the entire experience.

At the end of all available events Laura and Rogue are friends, but Rogue is calling Laura still X-23. Maybe an idea for a small scence where they explain to Null that Laura has allowed Rogue to call her Laura as well?

The problem with this, as I understand it, is that with renpy the system calls for names when referencing things. We'd have to introduce a separate nickname system for the changes to affect all events in the transition from X-23 to Laura with Rogue.

the original

I ask that you not call Oni's game "the origional" as we are not attempting to be a replacement. They can and should co-exist.

We might consider releasing them. But that'd likely be a patreon perk.

Someone's gonna leak'em anyways but they are one of the most expensive art assets in the game.

Yeah we're fixing the clothing gifting.

does the author have any plan about interactive dialogue during the sex mini game?
Something like dirty/sweet talk giving bonuses or maluses depending on the character personality and progression

Hi, can anyone tell me if there is an interaction with Storm? i already pass all the game but i dont see her anywhere besides when im on the hospital

I think I'm in need of more insight from the depths of the crystal ball owner of certain pair of shiny boots.

As far as I understood so far, there will be more romantic interests for protagonist in the further story chapters. Shall we expect some hypothetical cute girl appearing in the third chapter have the same amount of story content - quests, events etc. - in context of the entire game?

Storm is off on missions and will be added into the game in future updates. They are concentrating on getting the first part of the game polished up with the three X-ladies already present. We just have to be patient, but Storm is certainly one of the next ones they are working on adding from what I understand.

Storm is unavailable right now because of story reasons, she is the only confirmed girl for whenever Chapter 2 happens.

They all know about each other before I tell them and they don't seem to mind. I get each of them presents and nobody complains about what the other got so far. Did you start a relationship with one and say you wanted to just date them without leaving the option open?

So what had happened was: My plan was to stay monogamous with Rogue for 0.3 since I was a slut in 0.2b. (...despite never getting my guitar in 0.2b despite buying the girls everything, and yes, I'm still going to be bitter about that for the time being, but I digress.) But apparently trying to take a monogamous route while buying Jean pants counts as flirting in the game, which differs from how I interpret buying things for lady friends in real life, where I just saw buying Jean pants as a platonic thing, as opposed to something more intimate like panties or a sex toy. Like, being called out and questioned about it on it was cool, but not being able to say something to the effect of "No! It's not like that! We're just friends!" was disappointing.

So, I think the writing team and I have a different understanding of what constitutes as flirting in regards to gift-giving. So I guess my bit of feedback is to consider having some flexibility with keeping things platonic with the girls that you don't want romantically and/or sexually, like having a "hang out" option and differentiating between which gifts can be given with platonic intentions. And not just for the sake of my self-insertion role-playing point of view. If this game ends up getting close to the nine or ten girls that RLE is offering, having all of them try to jump your bones can get exhausting at times. Oni and Prime have a video gamey-ass way to avoid that potential issue, thus the term "Prime them out of the game". But since every character so far plays a part of Null's development, maybe just having some of them as friends while still acknowledging their existence can have a pragmatic/future use as well?

Wait girls also give you gifts? Them girls don't really like me huh
