Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8a] [Ron Chon]

[salscou]

In that regard I view Laura as like the type of cat that will claw and bite you if you rub their belly, but also will stop you from removing your hand from that area.

EDIT: Also the shared comic panel above.

Laura is a grumpy cat, yes.

The next update is gonna be the best one , we finally get HEAD PATS !!!

Harem Hotel has a head pat counter. Just putting that out there for the devs to consider adding.

Come to think of it, seeing the dating/sex/head pat stats in this game would be interesting, especially if you were to rack up odd proportions of attention giving like I have in LASSB:

How can i avoid lags in android version, that's terrible, can someone help me?

The lag in new update is crazy

Have y'all tried turning off Multithreading in the Graphics Options?

In the Graphics Options part of the menu, there are a few options to help you tune game performance to your device. With these four parameters, it is my sincere hope that anyone running a remotely reasonable device should be able to have a smooth experience playing TNH.

TLDR:
- If you're having performance issues, disable Multithreaded, enable Low Memory, enable Live2D Lite, and disable Large Image Cache
- If you're running a beefy system, try enabling Multithreaded, disabling Low Memory, disabling Live2D Lite, and enabling Large Image Cache

Multithreaded
- This controls whether Live2D model updates are checked for in one large thread or in a thread per model.
- In principle, having a thread per model can improve the responsiveness of models.
- However, some devices and CPUs will slow down from the increased load of all of those threads, and will actually perform much better with a single consolidated thread.
- This setting probably impacts mobile players the most and is the first thing you should toggle when trying to debug egregious stuttering.

Low Memory
- As expected, this is for devices with not enough memory to load Live2D model images into the cache when a character is displayed.
- It works by using 50% scaled-down assets instead.
- The most important application of this is for mobile players, where it should eliminate crashing on most devices.
- This cannot be enabled at the same time as Large Image Cache (below).

Live2D Lite
- This works in conjunction with the "only render when the model has updated" system to reduce the performance hit from Live2D updates.
- It shortcuts features like physics on standing models and breathing animations, thereby cutting down on the number of updates per second and therefore renders per second.
- This is useful if you find your game stuttering when many characters are displayed.

Large Image Cache
- This is for players with ample video memory: it allocates more memory to the cache and it pre-loads frequently accessed interface assets into the cache so that they don't need to be dynamically loaded during gametime.
- This increases load time by a few seconds while assets are being preloaded - you decide if that's worth the admittedly small reduction in potential lag.
- This cannot be enabled at the same time as Low Memory (above).

Yay update!

But sucks I won't get a chance to play in a couple of days. Go on lads, share us some favoured shots to tide us over until I get a chance

 

[fuukar]

Man, I've played the game during its ealier stages and wtf it looks like a completely different game from the previews in the first page. Which update drastically changed its graphics? Do we have new romanceable heroines besides Jean, Rogue and Laura?

 

[NexivSelecaf]

Which update drastically changed its graphics?

With versions 0.5b and 0.6a.

Do we have new romanceable heroines besides Jean, Rogue and Laura?

The new roadmap, so, in a few months. Previews of Storm, Kitty, Dazzler and Emma exist in this thread (thanks to King_In_Yellow) and on Discord.

Despite ACAB, I'm thinking Officer Jean as an almost namesake relation to Officer Jenny.

Are more interactions among the polycule going to be prioritzed?

On the to do list but not prioritized right now. To give you an idea of how far we're taking it. There will be events where you can enter unique poly relationships instigated by the girls based on comic interactions.

100% hypothetical. Kitty was shipped with Rachel and Magik by the writer so if one of those two makes it in, we'll likely have unique interactions.

I would like to see more long coversations with the girls. I havent gotten a dialogue tree with them since the opener (im guessing so they dont have to account for how the current rel state would change them or ppl might be bored?) letting us just talk to the characters more, like a new small personal dialogue tree every season could be neat and it is simpler since it wouldnt require any new art.

This would eat up a lot of our writers' time and is definitely one of the things they'd write up in between updates after all their assigned tasks are finished.

Not saying no, but it's not really a core feature.

They will remain reactive to your actions and the on going events though.

No sex talk on going ass to mouth?

Oversight. I'll mention it to the writers.

I find it weird Laura accepts dirty talk about wanting it in her ass or to get my cum when she wont do anal or take said cum int he actual sex

Oversight, I'll let the team know.

Some story cutscenes dont seem to acknowledge current realtionships states.Laura behaved as if it could eb weird she was huggin Null naked when they'd done much more in my save

Jeans first date tries to be shy and wholesome stopping at a single kiss when we were already having anal sex

Oversight, I'll let the team know.

I'm hoping for Black Widow

No chance sadly. She's not a mutant and isn't connected to the x-men in any way.

I will step in to say that non-X-Men characters may make guest appearances but don't expect them to fully romancable.

Spider-Woman for example spent time with the X-Men while they were briefly in California. I know a lot of comic fans want Null to be her baby daddy.

For the sake of the sanity of the writers and artists, they're solely sticking with the X-men's little corner of the Marvel universe.

Also this is true. We're looking at event comics but they have to be very X-Men focused.

Why do people keep thinking the art is AI made?

Bitterness, stupidity, trolling, or some combination of the three. Ignore it.

is there a way to cheat to have 3 skill points for x-ray vision?
sorry grinding is grinding me down

Kirby will update his cheat engine when the actual non-beta is available I'm sure.

I think it was confirmed she'll be an optional encounter during chapter 2

Not CONFIRMED but we are very much open to the IDEA of optional encounters. Not just with Emma.

Wait for chapter 3 will also likely be shorter than the wait for chapter 2, because they are finishing up the technical stuff during chapter 1 before moving on to chapter 2.

Not likely. Unless something happens IRL that genuinely slows us down like a wedding or having a kid, once all the core systems are in place, it's just a waiting game for art and writing to be finished and plugged in.

adding crap in without the base game being complete wont make development faster.

I once again point to Summertime Saga's multi-year effort to fix their spaghetti code.

So I like, got no clue what's up with my classroom here. version 0.8a

Someone uploaded a buggy beta, again, instead of waiting for a full release. You can blame them as this bug is likely fixed on the dev-team's side of things.

It's gonna be real awkward once you include Emma in this polycule and Jean STILL can't entice her 'lil bro' to make a move on her. Might have to ask someone to give her a pity hug.

Awkward? I think you mean HILARIOUS.

A counter would be a good idea. I'll throw the idea at the dv team.

I don't get the joke.

 

[Narakin]

I'm having trouble changing the outfits, can someone help me?

I created a outfit for sleep, but the girls arent using it. I even tried disabling the default pajama, but even then it doesnt work. Am I missing something?

 

[NexivSelecaf]

I don't get the joke.

It's okay, Boots. I still claim you.

 

[SoulTron]

It depends what you consider new content.

There probably won't be any new story content until Ch2, but there are new erotic scenes and mechanics that have been and will be added before Ch2.

Cool, Thanks

 

[SoulTron]

Would anyone happen to know if it's possible to advance the girls skills in oral and anal? Like their ability to deepthroat or find anal more enjoyable? For example, in my main save, my MC has done both with Rogue multiple times over the in-game year but she doesn't seem any more use to the actions after a point; still chokes in deepthroat going to fast and anal is is uncomfortable going to deep/fast

you could just use cheats, try save editor or universal ren'py mod

Not that I can see. There are no ways to do that via game GUI. Anyways, X ray, as far as I can tell, is not fully implemented. Only for Laura's reverse cowgirl.

Unfortunately, I haven't tested if XP cheats still work. Money, love, and trust cheats do, and that gives me enough achievement points to buy a few extra skill points to get the X-Ray option.

Currently, the limit breaker for the last season is broken (no pun intended). Thanks to sunsflower69 for reporting that. It's a simple fix, but I'd rather wait until a stable version before putting out a release to capture all the fixes (there's more than 1) or more, if there's enough of a change to do that. Currently, the relationship fixer is broken because Ororo is in the middle of being added as a companion and not complete, causing some data/type incompatibilities with my custom functions.

Kirby will update his cheat engine when the actual non-beta is available I'm sure.

Correct. As I mentioned before for this game and others I create cheats for, it's a bad idea to write something to an unstable version of the software. You can end up breaking things more than fixing it or fixing things that will already be fixed when the stable version gets released. Previous paragraph being case in point.

With that said, I do have fixes in place

. But I'd rather wait to see if anything changes between now and the stable/public release version.

Training is a whole thing. My cheat doesn't make that go faster currently. I did a full write up on how it works here in the cheat injector thread.

Thanks for the clarification.

Not likely. Unless something happens IRL that genuinely slows us down like a wedding or having a kid, once all the core systems are in place, it's just a waiting game for art and writing to be finished and plugged in.

Was more accounting for the possibility of something going horribly wrong like the code freaking out for no reason.

Either way, thanks for the confirmation.
