We have not seen Aiyakas baby yet.... Still a long way ... based on previous games released by Talothral.

Question: main character's name change to the default name with the new update, how to change it back to custom name without restarting the game ?

Yes. Load the save, and head to preferences. I believe it was on the extras tab. Been a while.

Like 66 updates? Unless the maker will be tired out and abruptly slap 1.0 like some did lol.

I was looking for Lady Miki Izumi in the codex and I didn't found her. Was it an oversight of yours Talothral?

 

[TheSidewinder]

EDIT: After finishing the new release... it's sort of fixed.
When I got to the secret image for 0.34 and clicked that one, then both images, from 33 and 34, showed up. Go figure.


Talothral That secret image bug from 0.33 doesn't seem to be fixed?
I applied that secrets.rpy patch file to my v33 install and it somehow corrupted the secrets; several were missing from way earlier in the game. So I pulled that secrets file out and it was back as it was, but still didn't have that missing secret image.
I replayed from a v31 save but the prompt at that point (in the poor quarters with Eshe) didn't appear.

 

[Towik]

What exactly is for the optional .41 update?

It is usually grammar fixes.

Thank you. Much appreciated

She is there, blame Kharmek for having too long title, literally his name is too long so it pushes one column to the right. Just press left mouse button down on an empty space and drag left. Sorted in 0.35.0 so that it shouldn't happen again.

Looking through the code I don't see anything strange going on. Granted, they are 0.35.0 files so take that with grain of salt.

Hello all!

Ugh... way too early for the brain to function normally. Anyway, as you can see release day... yay.

But beyond that, I started rendering 0.36.0, right with set building. There is a couple sets that needs to built but that's nothing new. So it's going on, there shouldn't be nothing drastic as is, but unexpected things can happen.

And writing of 0.40.0 has started. Granted, it is like two lines, but I started it last night before I decided to that I needed a break. Which did good, so I'll continue it later tonight. Once I wake up that is. So all is good on that front as well. Then to avoid major spoilers, one of the motivational renders ahead.

I enjoy set building. Sure there are annoying things about it, but that's mostly Daz being clunky occasionally. But when things falls into place you can do interesting things with it, and it doesn't take much to change the original something that has never seen before. The original set didn't have the waterfall and the pine trees... or the vines. Replacing the original palm trees with them changed the set from something you see in the south to something more northern. Next step would be add some snow and bit of steam rising from the waterfall. Might do that actually when I get the time. Also of note, some of the things I build and "test" during this time is for the future so who knows when and where the set appears... And then the important stuff.

Talothral : Small bug report on the new update while using the .1 patch:



Pretty sure that line should be the MC, not Eshe.

[Talothral]

Also TheSidewinder if you use the update only files, the 33 hidden image might have a wrong filename, which is why it probably won't show up properly. Can get the fixed RPA's from here

After some years/decades of book & paper & pencil & dice role-playing games (RPGs, (Advanced) Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) etc.) 'mage' became popular abbreviation of 'magician/'magic-user': all generic/sex-neutral, derived from Persian-Greek male magician word, magus, and 1980s D&D also (re)constructed (based on same languages) female equivalent maga. Fine to say 'mage', but I think in ancient times (Dark/Mediaeval/Viking, whatever age/era of Asian-type countries (Classical?) in Tribulations of a Magician (ToAM)) if using non-generic noble/royal titles such as 'Lord'/'Emperor' & 'Lady'/'Empress', I argue they'd likely say 'magus' & 'maga' (sometimes preceded by 'Arch'... 'magician' seems more common outside 2000s games... at least more classic fantasy literature). My D&D (1990s) gaming groups moved to newer/abbreviation terms I consider overused, so I went back to 'magician', 'magus'/'wizard' & 'maga'/'witch'.

In some RPGs, fighter-magician characters (ToAM main character (MC) Tomas, etc.) get combined titles: Lord Magus/Wizard (or Lady Maga/Witch)... clearly Tomas is still pretty good fighter, but I guess not focused on it, and if I recall correctly (IIRC) some call him 'Lord', so I'm not saying expand title, but if non-player characters (NPCs) want to be very formal (standard when first meeting important person) perhaps they'd use long titles... often royals' ones are quite long (one was <name> by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and of the British Dominions beyond the Seas, King, Defender of the Faith, Emperor of India) which might add interesting setting details such if emperor & empress have long titles (or Tomas gets military leadership position).

Whether formal/long titles get used, I'm more interested seeing love interest (LI) ladies with (option for) more vulva hair... less popular after popularity of pornography on Internet, but also fits setting (and more popular among older gamers, still large audience). ToAM is often closer to such old style anyway.

That being said, ToAM is excellent how it is: excellent art/writing... of 25+ science fiction & fantasy (SFF) visual novels/games I played, ToaM (haven't played his SF yet) is in my top #1 favourite category (equalled by only two or three others, including The Sorcerer).

Hi,

1. Okay, we now know you're a D&D old school nerd.

2. We now know, that you like 70-80's big bold bushy vag' forest.

3. I agree that the game is good entertainment.

You know I'm joking-around with you about the Nerd stuff, because, even this old school Metal-Head was drawn into that D&D time-suck back-in-the-day, it (D&D) never was really my thing, I just liked the nerdy-girls, and they all had bush for days.
