*** The latest SanchoMod Core v7b ***
Massive overhaul of core mod with 1,000's of cumulative hours in development
It is highly recommended you run via your secondary graphics processor (not your integrated), instructions below.

Updated: 05-14-2024
Game/Creator: University Of Problems / DreamNow /
Modder: Sancho1969 F95
Mod Version: v1.4.5 (Extended)
Game Version: v1.4.5 (Extended)
Language: English
Platform: PC

Features:
  • Improved aesthetics with animated mod menus/screens, all fully customizable to tailor your personal experience.
  • Too many story branches got you down 'cause you can't remember which of your saves is which? I gotcha covered. Includes the Original SanchoMod save description feature. Often imitated (including the use of my GUI buttons) the SanchoSave is more intelligent and efficient, saving you keystrokes as it autoloads the save slot descriptions and it also allows you to completely escape the process of saving if you wish (I've personally not seen this feature with other imitations). Feature can be toggled on/off anytime as desired.
  • Adds multiple exhaustive stats screens always accessible via the MiniMenu or Options menu. Resizable, toggle-enabled, various formats, and more.
  • Adds in-game walkthrough (ChoiceGuide) noting all variable changes and highlighting important choices. Can be toggled on/off at anytime, play as YOU want to play. You are not forced to view spoilers if you do not wish.
  • Multiple opacity and text sizing options to customize your experience including dialogue boxes, text and fonts, QuickMenu sizing and format versions, and more. All can be toggled on/off as desired, again allowing you even more control to tailor your experience.
  • Adds a custom fully unlocked scene gallery (SanchoGallery) that runs completely independent.
  • Adds professionally coded custom cheats (SanchoCheats) if applicable (varies from port to port). New Feature: Now includes the soon to be infamous "Tee-Hee" toggle button.
  • Adds the ability to view multiple scenes (SanchoSplits) if menu choice has a scene/route split.
  • Guide for Phone Tasks, Phone Chat, FreeRoam and more. Featuring the debut of the all new dynamic FreeRoamGuide.
  • Too many new features to list.

Reserved for pending FAQ

The main newest feature sets within the mod (for those already accustomed to SanchoMod) are the following:
  1. SanchoDiaBox toggle (found in the Options screen). Seamlessly changes from OEM dialogue box to SanchoMod custom. New bonus feature - adjust dialogue font size and dialogue box opacity while in game via [Alt+(ArrowKeys)].
  2. QuickMenu alignment (found in the Options screen). New bonus feature - The alignment changes dynamically depending on whether the OEM or Sancho dialogue box is on screen.
  3. SaveDescription toggle (found in the Options screen)
  4. SanchoAlerts (isolated custom notifications that are completely separated from RenPy's default notifications, toggled on/off along with the normal ChoiceGuide). New bonus feature - now receive alerts of potential scene/path splits as save marker points.
  5. SanchoGallery (improved efficiency and handling of isolated gallery, isolated MC renaming, improved start and ending screen transitions and more). New bonus feature - The "SanchoMod Menu" opacity slider (that normally controls the opacity of the MiniStat screen in-game) now controls the dialogue box opacity while in a scene replay. When back in-game it switches back to it's default of adjusting the MiniStat screen opacity.
  6. SanchoCheats (found via the Options screen). Professionally and properly coded cheats that are rock-solid, including a reset button for stat changes that works intuitively and correctly every time. You asked for it, you got it...cheater. New bonus feature - alt character renaming, deep-rooted.
  7. SanchoHotKeys (in-game only). New! Alt+ArrowKeys for dialogue text size/opacity, Lower-case "g" for ChoiceGuide, Lower-case "m" for MiniStat, Lower-case "q" for QuickMenu, Lower-case "s" for medium SanchoStat, Lower-case "o" for SanchoOptions, Lower-case "c" for SanchoCheats, Lower-case "x" for clearing stuck notifications. These work exactly as if you had clicked them in the MiniMenu or SanchoOptions, they just give you another way to do something faster or more conveniently. (Yes, I took the "s" key. Use shift+"s" or alt+"s" for screenshots)
  8. QM HoverMode (found in the Options screen). Additional QuickMenu customization that can also be toggled with the appropriate HotKey "q". Described in detail in a post in the mod's thread here.
  9. HotKey "S" Toggle (found in SanchoCheats) (it looked out of place in SanchoOptions where it really needs to be), works in real-time while in-game with no restart required. Toggle allows the HotKey to set to either the default "S" or the alternative "T". While in the "T" variant the user can take RenPy screenshots with the individual "S" key as well as the other multi-key assignments. This feature toggle is saved on a per-save file basis (it will always default to "S" when starting a new game so will have to be set to "T" each new game if that's the preference of the Player. When loading a save where it was previously set to "T" then it will be loaded as such).
I'll update this post periodically with those details and deep-dive into explanations as necessary.

Until then please enjoy and please consider leaving a review, a vote, or both. I'll never ask you for your "donation", I only ask for your appreciation if you enjoy my work. Best regards to you and yours.

Hi, Iam having a hard time to install this kind of cheat
can someone please help
i did like they said

See the graphic in the OP "Installation". Don't put it in the folder of the game, extract it inside the folder named "game" which is in the VN's main folder.

Yep, the mod warns you here (slightly). I actually saw your post and answered you here before seeing this post. Long story short, to date you can choose RoxyHS as you wish EXCEPT here. Regards.

I gave up after 0.6 and only watched the scenes in the replay because I just didn't feel like trying to find out the countless paths by try and error.
The official walkthrough is, with all due respect, a disaster.

Thanks Sancho for the hard work, finally I can give the game my full attention again.

not explicitly for laptops. is simple if you have more than one graphics card.
this is often the case in cheap desktop pc if you upgrade the graphics. there you have the onboard and the actual "upgrade" card

So, first off - love the Mod! However, there are some things I need help to understand/interpret:LOL:
What does the different letters followed by numbers indicate?

Example: Currently at a scene with Roxy (at a lecture), where if I stop her, it says "Roxy E10.1). Whaaat does that mean? :D

EDIT: It is written in a dark-ish purple color, if that is any help? Also, that leads me to ask - is there a guide to what the colors mean overall, or?

Those are event choices and as far as the naming convention blame the dev. Event choice are variables (unlike stats like "love" or "lust") that usually are a true/false for manipulating future outcomes. In this case the dev (who got a bit pissy with me when I called his code "unorthodox" is using integer variables instead of boolean. This doesn't make it wrong, but certainly different so I use the same names for easier tracking. Don't sweat it too much as I note (with "SanchoNote") what changes you can generally expect from a choice if it more than just dialogue changes.
