Mod Ren'Py Abandoned The Tyrant: DarkWolfMod [v0.45.40] [Heartlessnobody95]

[User_17502]

Would you guys support me on patreon if I had one?

No I am not going to lock my work behind a paywall. And no I am not begging for money and stopping my mod if I don’t get any.

Instead I am just trying to think about how I can make my work more efficient and how much people value it. Basically I have a full time job as well as college and I am wondering If I can quit one or both to pursue a career in creating adult games. But first I would have to recognize what value my work has at the present. So what would you pay (if anything at all) for this Mod and any of my future works to come out every month?

The only reason I asked this is because I see a ton of messages asking when the next mod is going to be out but I can’t really dedicate that time to putting out a giant rework every month. Sure I do it every two months but even then there is a lot of stuff I have yet to do because I just don’t have the time.(Like the whole point system, teaser images, etc...)

Anyway as a quick update I am thinking about making the teasers into separate dream sequences that the player can choose during the night. I have a poll up on my discord with some questions about that specifically.

Can i fix this in the mod mode?

You have to restart the game for the kid to work. You can’t use an old save file. Unless you played with the earlier versions of the mod then you can keep the same save file from the modded version of the game.

Thanks. I am trying to make the game less clear cut so the mod might become a little much for you if you dont manage the girls correctly. But with how I hope to change the game you will be able to do that without much of a problem.

However once I institute the harder difficulty it might become less enjoyable for you so I would recommend playing the next version of my mod with the hard difficulty off.

Can't apply the mod

Did you follow the instructions? Replace the script in the game folder?

 

[rahul@19999]

Did you follow the instructions? Replace the script in the game folder?

1. Extracted the mod zip file
2. Inside the mod folder there was a file named instructions .
3. Inside instructions it was mentioned to use UNREN and decompile rpyc files.
4. A file named un.rpyc came to existance , in Instructions it was mentioned to extract this file and copy it to game/dir and replace the intro file.
5. My problem is that i don't understand how to extract the un.rpyc file ( what extract means here )
6. So instead i pasted the un.rpyc file in game/dir , no dialogue appeared for replacing intro file.
7. Plz give a detailed solution for this problem , give screenshot if possible

 

[User_17502]

After you use unren on the game you copy all of the mod files and paste them into the “game” folder in the game. When you paste it, a pop up should appear asking you if you want to replace these files and you should say yes.

I started a new game. Same problem, but now with other person (Irina and/or bartender).

Ah. Close the game and reopen it after making sure you close all renpy stuff. Idk why that happens but it does randomly. Closing the game and waiting a few min should fix it.

it has been al full day since i restarted. Still the same…. ?

Thank u bro or sis , what r u male or female ?

I'd bet that you're hitting number 9 on unren, and some players aren't; the limit of rollback history in Renpy is causing that error and one of the options on unren dials it up.

Also, Renpy gives priority to .rpy files in the folder over any files in the rpa archives, so users *shouldn't* have to unren just to extract all the scripts - just put the script files in their \game folder.

it has been al full day since i restarted. Still the same…. ?

Run unren and do whichever option enables rollback, it also cranks up the rollback limits, then start the game. Please let us know if this fixes it?

Would I support you in Patreon for your Mod? - answer aint so black and white so to answer..
Yes I would, I like the work you do for Tyrant, but would pay the amount I pay for Tyrant? - No.
Reason being you are enhancing an experience and making it more fun but you are using the building blocks that already exist and changing the bits you disagree with.
I doubt their is much to be made on adult games unless you are both origonal and interesting with your work, luckily you are obviously capable of both and understand what the players want.
What I would pay is a reasonable amount for your work and ideas, for that is where the money is.
Tyrant gives us a fun complex, sick and expanding game with images every week to feed the crowds when their is no update and that is what sells it for many people.
You are more than capable of being your own designer, everything you have done before except the artwork, maybe a partnership with Jack the Rapist would fix that?, or one of the lost artists you worked so hard on Big Brother?.
Last thing on that score, already Ptreon has constricted the originality of the various artists and I am sure they will continue to force change so anything you do will be forced to work within their rules not yours and i doubt you would get away with what you have produced so far based on how they are acting.
A final thought to that might interest you .. okay In tyrant it is about the joke gang (they are a pathetic gang really) but make it about a real threat like sons of anarchy or hells angels and you will get a lot of people interest I would suspect?, after all the motorcycle rebel gangs are at the heart of most bad boy images?

No succes. Same error like above

Well, crap.

So a likely way to fix that will make you loose all your saves is to clear out both save folders. How attached are you to your saves? Could you live w/o them?

@Heartlessnobody95 - apologies for crashing your thread. Let me know if I'm hurting more than helping.

Ayy no problem man. You doing a great job helping out people. I honestly didn't know how to solve the problem before you said it.

Thanks that's a lot more in-depth than I was expecting to get.

With respect to the support side of things. I wasn't really expecting to be supported nearly as much as saddog is supported. After all he is creating his own original game. I was more asking if people who played the mod thought my writing was good enough that if I did my own separate game they would support me there. You made your views extremely clear and that is awesome.

With the patreon stuff I agree. Patreon is not the way of the future for adult creators unfortunately it is the only thing we can use right now without making our own site and charging through pay pal. I would love to set up something like patreon but right now I dont have the time nor resources to do so.

I didn't really like sons of Anarchy but that's mostly on me. Actually I have changed the gang to be a little more believable. But to actually make it realistic I would need a lot more renders. I already made the date scene more forced but I think there is much I will have to play with to make this gang actually threatening. I like the idea and I hope to try and make the game more immersive.

Glad my advise helped and more importantly was not to blunt, I am oft accused of being to direct .

On the Sons of Anarchy, the point was more they are genuine bad guys, as is hells angels etc with a sexual twist which is a key part of this unlike say the mafia or the krays who were just dangerous and violent but not necessarily sexual in the theme (given that both krays were gay and liked crossdressers certainly spoils that image ).

Beyond serial killers their are few modern villianish groups who meet that image, the first OG`s like Ice T and some of that generation but the rest are all cartoon characters playing a part (Davide obviously springs to mind on that one).

Nooooo… there is no meaning in life w/o those saves….. ;-)
Thanks, ill try.
