Ren'Py games on Mac keep their saves in a folder in ~/Library/Renpy. Have you looked there ?

Ren'Py games on Mac keep their saves in a folder in ~/Library/Renpy. Have you looked there ?

More specifically, ~/Library/RenPy/Inventory02-1551646067.

Ren'Py games on Mac keep their saves in a folder in ~/Library/Renpy. Have you looked there ?

Im stuck on 2 folders, one name "lib" (im assuming it's short for library) and it only contains a python folder. The other folder was "autorun" containing "game" and "renpy" and two other files. In the renpy folder there is no save folder or "Inventory02-1551646067". I tried to just command F it but nothing pops up.

There are 2 saves locations. One within the 'game' folder, which is created the first time you run the game and try to save your progress. And then there's a backup folder, which is the one the other guys told you about and it's located in a system folder (Library/RenPy/Inventory02-155164607). This backup folder exists so you don't need to manually transfer your saves from the old 'game' folder to the new one every time the game is updated. You can put the save your downloaded in either of these two locations.

Library is a hidden folder on macs. Press Command + Shift + . (period) while in Finder, or "cd ~/Library/Renpy" in a terminal.

That's for Windows. We're talking about Mac here https://f95zone.to/threads/what-a-legend-v0-7-05-magicnuts.51349/post-16892299

Don't assume lib is the same as library. The folder is called Library, nothing else..
There are at least three of them: one in the root of Macintosh HD: /Library
Another one in System: /System/Library
The third one is hidden (one of Apple's more clever ideas ) in your Home folder: ~/Library
This is the one we're talking about.
(The ~symbol (tilde) in a filepath indicates your home folder)

If you have a path, don't use Command F but shift-command-G while in Finder and type or paste the path there.

You can also make this Library folder permanently visible. This option shows up in the View Options (Command J) for your home folder.


Finally, if you want to search for things on your HD, I recommend Easyfind (freeware from Needful Things - Devontechnologies)
This allows you to search for files and folders using wildcards and Boolean operators, searching also in hidden folders and inside packages. Spotlight is worthless for this. I never use it.

I've been following this game since 2020, five months after it was first released, and it was easily my favorite game. Then we waited 2.5 years for just one update and, in my opinion, it was the worst update this game ever got. I thought the slow progress was just the case for that only one update but now that I've come here after 5 months and seen that they didn't even complete one third of the next update, I lost my hope for this game.

I wish you patience, the ones who still tracks this game's updates daily. Don't even hope for the next update in at least 13-14 months (and that's my optimist prediction).

Game crashed during Bonetown quest. Logs attached can't get beyond this point.

To be fair, I think the creators had at least one child since they started the Gomira and surprisingly kids take up a lot of time that could be used to make material for an adult game. But hey, you do you.

The child didn't exactly crawl back to free them up for this update. I am optimistic with this game, but now there's sadly data on their speed of work for this update. And it extrapolates to next year

I'm going to start a new game to try out the newest update. Who would you say is the "canon" girl to lose your virginity to? I was thinking Myrtle but curious what others think.

Somehow you seem to have the very first 0.7 version released, which had some bugs that were quickly fixed. Just make sure you download the latest version available (0.7.05)

Thank you so much for being alert, while I was asleep at the wheel I feel pretty dumb not to have checked that I had latest version, but grateful for for the support without the well deserved FLAME.

I'm gonna say I don't mind waiting for a game if it means alleviating the workload of people trying to give their kids a good upbringing.

Found it thanks ❤

That's what I thought for the last update, you're absolutely right but I still think this update should be much faster or people might start losing interest for the game. They released Mrytle's update in just 5 months. The last update came in 30 months and this update will take at least 15 months. You have to work at least 3x slower to make this happen. I had thought they'd be more experienced in time and release longer updates in less time but god I was wrong. Okay, I respect the children situation but it feels like they lost the passion or got lazy or just don't care as much as they used to do. I don't know, maybe I'm just delusional.

Holly is my best girl by the way. So that's kind of why I'm so mad about this update progressing slower. I'm just looking forward to her content. I didn't really care about Gomira. It wouldn't have mattered to me if it was released 10 years later.

I waited 3 months for Mrytle, 8 months for Lana, 10 months for Rose, 30 months for Gomira and it's my first time crying about progress here xD

Isn't the kid, like, 18 years old by now?

Isn't the kid, like, 18 years old by now?

19, they retconed him running off on his 18th birthday in to being 19 because they were afraid of patreons latest crackdown.
Not that it matters, patreons rules enforcement is very selective, there is tons of rape/NTR garbage that stays up so having an 18 year old MC isn't even gonna register unless someone at patreon wants the devs gone, in which case they can always find something to latch on to.
