I will not update the renpy for this update, but I likely will after 0.5v3 when I do a GUI update. Or at least I think - I wasn't aware people couldn't play on updated renpy. Is that common?
Sort of, people using old hardware and/or deprecated OSs like Win 7 often have problems meeting the new minimum requirements for the Ren'Py 7.4.x graphics renderers. Some can work-around this by forcing Ren'Py to use the angle renderer rather than the default gl renderer, but not always.

...I also think that people with older hardware might have difficulties. But probably the load times will be longer and the game will hang in between. :unsure:

As someone who plays these games on an old laptop, I hope those Renpy updates will not be an issue for me :(
I've noticed that the latest update of BaDIK takes A HELL OF A LOT to load every time I launch the game, but I ignore whether DPC's using that new version. After that, the game works smoothly for me.

The latest Friday update from the developer's Patreon thread:



Friday Update - April 30, 2021

Hello, Patrons!

Short and hopefully sweet update for you:

0.5v2 should be released sometime between May 10 and May 14.

I'm giving it a bit of a window for release because I'll have to take an overnight business trip early next week. I might use that time to render another animation.

• Primary renders are nearly complete. Just a handful to go plus whatever extra ones I end up adding when I put everything together.

• I have one animation to do other than the one I might render while I'm away.

• There's some significant post-processing work left to do.

• It will likely take a day of coding.

Then it'll just be a matter of testing and it's good to go! As always, I apologize for the delays you've had to endure. There is a light at the end of the tunnel! And I hope you enjoy it.

Tier 2's and up will get a preview render tonight.

Thank you for your support!

I've spoken with other developers on the Ren'Py issue that some players are having. Based on their feedback I will not update Ren'Py until it offers me some sort of significant benefit. I'm currently using 7.3.2.

However!

Ren'Py is undergoing some major changes right now. New graphics pipeline, converting to Python 3, etc. Upgrading is inevitable. If you're having trouble running new versions of Ren'Py right now, things are probably not going to get better for you going forward. Fair warning. :)

Preview - Ep5v2

I don't think I've shown any of the after-class meeting yet. Unexpectedly, things with Professor Nakamura become kind of... suggestive.
Oh its going to be THAT kind of professor.

I’m ready for some great Shannon banter. She’s like the 4th most attractive lady in the game, but that tongue of hers makes her irresistible to me.

Latest Patreon update post:



Friday Update - May 7, 2021

Hello, Patrons and followers!

Hope you all had a wonderful week. Mine has been pretty productive, despite several distractions.

I expect to finish the primary rendering for 0.5v2 this weekend. After that I will begin work on background rendering, post-processing, coding, and testing. This is the point where I also find the music and create the various screens, such as the menu.

It's always surprising how many little things need to be accomplished to publish an update.

I don't have an exact date for you guys yet. I suspect it will be Thursday or Friday. I will let you know for sure when I know for sure.

When the update is out, I will post it here for the patrons. After some time - an hour, maybe more - I will make it publicly available.

Until then, thank you all for hanging in there. I look forward to seeing how quickly some of you crack the secrets, if you crack them at all! ;)

It will NOT be Thursday

Hello, Patrons!

As I've said, I would let you guys know the release date when I know the release date.

What I know right now is it will not be on Thursday. It might not come on Friday, either. I am putting everything together and I am needing more renders to finish it than I had anticipated, and I want to make sure to run this through at least somewhat of a beta testing phase.

It will be coming within the next few days. When I know more I will let you know more.
