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

[gtpman]

I found a few "bugs" in the code.

For example:
"Episode23.rpy" line 9054:

("Katie" or "Lily" or "Jolina" or "Debbie") in JennaGroup

It doesn't check if "Katie" or "Lily" or "Jolina" or "Debbie" is in the JennaGroup list. The parenthesis is actually resolved first and then checked against the JennaGroup list. So it is equivalent to saying "Katie" in JennaGroup.
A simple fix would be to create a function:

def in_group(g, *args):
    for a in args:
        if a in g:
            return True
    return False

then you can use it like

in_group(JennaGroup, "Katie", "Lily", "Jolina", "Debbie")

to check if any of the girls are in the given group.
​

If any of the developers is reading this and finds it useful, please let me know so I can provide a complete list with similar bugs I've notice.

I believe we caught that one (and hopefully most others) in the patches since release, but I like your coding fix for it. Do you happen to use discord? If you have others you found and/or might be interested in a QC role >

Re: Epilogues

Sure, man, that counts. Just tell me there's a Happily Ever After option with Lily & Debbie both helping start my new family clan. Maybe somewhere nice and sunny in Spain at our new villa.

Don't you have a Lily & Debbie path without Katie? I managed one right after the night in the beach house.

 

[darthpham]

Ep 23 looks like some milking. The main story makes little progress, new characters are introduced, prepare us for some lewd scenes…
Realistically there should not be more than 1-2 episodes until the end is reached. I hope this happens.

I'm hoping for more episodes. There's a few suggestions of new liaisons (Mabel, Porsche & her sister, Wanda, a few girls in the strip club) so let's hope

I most certainly do. I just want to make sure that they remain viable to the end. I figure by taking the mothers of my progeny to another nation might help with upholding the conditions of the will, so we get all that money. Gotta treat those ladies very well. They can take a trip back to the states every now and then without the MC, to see their friends and family.

You can live in the beach house with them while your concubines (Jo, Wanda, Porsche & sister, Mabel) live in other house Obviously, you take the money & need to be careful of keeping in touch with Jenna & her family until you cash out $

The beach house is far too close to the others. They would drop by. MC is being watched by private detectives, and it doesn't matter if he encounters them on purpose or accidentally. Forget it. Not going to risk millions on Katie's stubborn ass coming over just because she thinks I might not be home.

What about Jenna....she's worth the risk. But Katie, not so much...

I went for Jenna... I gave the house to the stepmom and she's giving me her money so if you get caught and lose your money, she gets more and then you in turn, get hers so... can't really lose that way. Not giving up on Jenna...no way.

Please help me.
My computer is weak and it slows down and freezes when playing animation scenes, can I lower the graphics of this game a bit?!

Does it chug while playing animations, or just when an animation starts?

The internal renpy video animation can have issues with lower end machines, which is why we switched to webm vids in the later episodes for animations. So it should either get better, or if you are having issues with more recent releases the only option is a better pc/graphics card as far as I know.

You can change the graphics engine that RenPY uses, that MAY help...
1. Press Shift+G once Ren'Py has started.
2. From the "Graphics Acceleration" menu that appears, choose a different renderer to use (you may need to try a couple out).
3. Choose "Quit", then restart Ren'Py for your changes to take effect.

Otherwise, you may just have to upgrade the graphics card in your PC.

I fiddled with that once upon a time, it really didn't do much, it is already set to use the most efficient one by default.

Nah, Katie is best, totally perfect wife.
Ehm, tastes...

Funny thing is until this last update I had Katie as my favorite.
She gave us a foursome and forgives you for cheating with Natasha.
Then Jenna came through with allowing us to bang Jo, Porsche, and my new bae Captain Heart.
Not only that she is also doing the heavy lifting to allow you to have both her and Katie.
I still got love for Katie but to me Jenna is now in a untouchable tier along with Elaine for splitting the cash .

Sounds like you need to plan an upgrade to your system.

I use a desktop computer and about every 10 years I upgrade it. The last upgrade I did was in 2019. I can't afford a lot, so I planned out what I wanted in a desktop system and then over about nine months, I bought a part or two at a time for my new computer and slowly put it together over the months until I had something that worked. Then with that new system, and a basic video card, I started saving for a newer video card and within a year (or two due to high prices) I upgraded it so that I now have something that does a nice job on both games and my own rendering. You might consider doing the same. You can build a new system that will run nicely in under a year if you buy a part at a time, or save the money and for as little as $100 a month you can get a nice, new system within a year. I usually get a cheaper video card and then once I have something running, I will save for a better video card later on. Time flies, you will be surprised at what you can put together and how fast time flies.

She has her moments. While she seems a little... "rough around the edges", I noticed in a few parts she showed her sweet side that I liked. I may do a play through focusing on her sometime.

I wasn't the one having the problem. But I can simulate a slow PC by having my usual 1k tabs browser window open, it tends to lag things a bit when I try to refresh them all.

I am still working on it. I totally reworked my regular gallery code but it is all working now, the artwork layouts are all done, and I have about half of the scenes done. Part of the problem is there are a lot of attributes and dependencies, so I have to copy and edit each scene to make it watchable as well as not interfere with your stats. But I would say early next week I will have it ready. I will shoot for Tuesday. Once I get it caught up, it will not take long to update moving forward.

If you are interested... here is a screenshot of the main gallery page.

UPDATE:
I am through chapter 20 and working to get the rest done today. There is SOOO much content that it is taking a long time and I imagine there are going to be some errors so I will just post a BETA version and you can test it and let me know what needs to be updated. Hopefully I will post it in the next day or two.
