VN Ren'Py Where the Heart Is [S1 Rev1] [CheekyGimp]

[0blivion]

fuck this shit. I really was looking forward to play the new chapter andit being manipulated so easily makes me worry about possible mailware and stuff in the future if people can just upload this stuff.

Take a chill pill, dude.

I admit I was taken too, but also admit it was a good joke as well. Though, I feel the pain for those on metered internet.

As to "being manipulated so easily makes me worry about possible mailware and stuff", well that falls entirely on YOU, and me as well. We should have done the math and realized things didn't add-up, a) It was April's 1st. b) New Game File Size is half of previous version
.
.
.
and lastly c) Learn to protect your PC better so you can learn to take a joke.

Holy shit, I can't believe i fell for this, facepalmed so hard my face has a mark on it, I wonder how did the mods make a .rpy file take so much space, I tried to open it in Notepad++ and it says is too big . I should get a badge like the April's Fools day where they put the Complete tag on Dual Family.

Hi
The latest version of notepad++ 64bit opened both of the files.
They were actually rpyc files with their headers deleted, so totally useless.
Wasted my time downloading it while reading the forums... I decided to let it download just to see if there was anything useful in it, but nope.
This has destroyed my trust in F95 downloads now...
From now on, I will sandbox every download (even the mods) and put them all through stringent virus/malware/trojan/ransomware/rootkit testing...
... and of course the other disturbing question, what else has someone messed with the links to and is possibly waiting to surprise us all?

 

[Soulbro]

For everyone who can't find the .exe and can't start the game.


He can help.

You sir are a f*c*ing idiot!
Your answer is violence???
Are you perhaps training to be an actor?

 

[BisonFan02]

At least the game/prank wasn't playable.

All a beta tester would need to do is take a beta copy of the game....remove a few non-game breaking variables, and you could completely fuck over players and make scenes entirely locked out as well as destroy saves/persistent files. Oh the possibilities...... LOL

 

[BorgiaBou]

wow, that was a joke ? Saw 22 test, waited for the final version, refreshed the page, saw the [test] was gone and downloaded 3-4 GB just to see it's the same 21.

"Good" joke, morons.

This is too good man

You ever heard of memes? How in hell is posting a meme OF VIOLENCE, actually reacting with violence?
Sorry, but the jury on who of the two of you is an idiot might come to a different conclusion, for reacting like this, to someone posting a meme.

The least the mods could do is add a big sentence about how the dev team wasn't responsible for the oh so funny April Fool's joke in the OP.
So big that everyone who at least looks at the first post sees it.

acewinz Have you guys contacted SAM or any of the other higher ups about this? You'd think some damage control would be the least they can do.

 

[Fake Smile]

so what are the chances of an incest patch?

Already exists guy.

File 22 came out with rpy, how do you unpack this.

I saw the update and was about to dload, but then a voice thundered in my head..."IT'S APRIL FOOLS DAY YOU ASS!"
Hell naw, always listen to the voice in your head..

I made a few inquiries and we submitted a few tickets but didn't go to an admin, though I have heard good things about Sam. We figured things would be back to normal here at least by today and we made our position pretty clear yesterday. Besides the QC issue we need to resolve, the joke seems to be they annoyed the f95 user base more than us. So just going to move on, got an update to finish after all. I also think our QC team may more readily understand now why we give them testing material piecemeal.

Do you need help to find back to your village? I can somewhat understand people not want to browse pages back, but not even the current page?

Which one, there are a lot to choose from.

According to the Patreon goals, this game is never getting any sound, as they replaced that goal with upgrading previous chapters' visuals instead, it was apparently decided by popular demand, that's just disappointing, good luck setting an atmosphere without sound.

In this we disagree. Sound may be nice but the art sets an atmosphere as well. I mean Charlie Chaplin did not get rich in the talkies. All they had was an organ. You want an organ?

Actually, while we removed it as a goal since it didn't seem to be driving anyones interest, I still think we are going to add sound/music anyway. But it is probably going to be a post production process along with upgrading the early game visuals.

In fact I actually already created the first musical sequence last EP centered around Theresa just to give Cheeky an example of how I would like us to use them besides for background and sounds. I aimed for something in the same vein as the masterworks that Drifty does with Leap of Faith, if you know it, and while I and Cheeky were very happy with it. We only had a single response about it from our QC folks who had access to it. Pretty sure it was only Slockie who reviewed it for us.

I'll take reworked and updated old scenes any day. The first thing I do with renpy games is put on my own music and just read the story. These are VNs after all, sound isn't a requirement if you ask me.

yeah, music/sounds is of utmost importance for any decent AVN.

Why did you even bother replying then, if you couldn't care less about in-game music?

It just feels unsettling when I'm playing a game without any sound at all, so I only resort to playing my own music in the background if the game itself doesn't have any audio itself, just so there's at least some audio while I play, although it almost never fits the current atmosphere of the scenes.
