The only Windows 7 issue is the icon remapping. You can just delete the icon file and it will launch.It's not the GPUs, it's the drivers.

Info isn't exactly clear but I do know with my Windows 7 64bit with ati radeon xpress 200 series, any game made with renpy 7.4.0+ either the images when game is open are not displaying properly, or I get the "is not a valid application" type message.
Something to do with the newer type of GL2 and GL3 type shader.
The "is not a valid application" error is because of custom icons. Just delete the .ico file. Nothing to do with shaders.
The ATI Radeon Xpress 200 is based on the ATI R300 GPU... from 2002.

Their is no .ico file in either the game that failed to open or the game that did but images weren't displaying correctly.
Sorry, not an ico file, renpy doesn't use those anymore. game/gui/window_icon.png. Depending on the game it might be stored inside of an *.rpa file

Still get "not valid application" for the one that can't open.
As for the one that did open but had problems with displaying the images while the game was open, an uncaught exception occurred.
Since this is technically OT territory, PM if you wish to continue this.
Sad to hear you're going forward with model changes.Mind Drop #9 (2/3/2021)
A rare Wednesday mind drop! I accidentally slept for way longer than intended yesterday and that's why this post is a bit behind. I don't have a whole lot to talk about but there are a few things I should mention, so let's get into it.
Game related stuff:
- Managed to get both releases out last month and that was cool but ideally they wouldn't have been both at the end of the month. The most ideal scenario is a release towards the first 7-10 days a month and a second around the 21st-23rd of the month.
- I'm working my way towards ideal but this will be another stepping stone month. The target for the next release is mid Feb with another one near the end of Feb.
- I'm considering putting out a few teaser images from the Week 1 redo soon.
Dev related stuff:
- I have both a ton and nothing to talk about at the same time. Most of the in-progress things aren't ready to be publicly discussed yet and the other things I want to talk about I go more into down below! So, onto personal stuff.
Personal related stuff:
- It was awesome being able to take the time to spend with my grandpa without it being detrimental to the game. I love the new work system. It feels really nice when everything works, my life feels a lot less robotic and I feel more rejuvenated and creative than ever before.
- A fun fact about me is that I still type like a child. I only type with my index fingers. And it's not a big deal but I type a lot... and I've been having some hand pain and it's pretty obvious it's coming from typing with two fingers.
So I've been working on how to type properly and it's been tough to fight the muscle memory and I still catch myself trying to type with two all the time but I'm getting better about it.
I've been playing some typing games in my free time (It's fun to learn a skill that will help with productivity without it feeling like a chore) and I think it'll be fun to add my average WPM to these weekly posts to see how I improve over time.
Two fingers: 71 WPM
Properly: 49 WPM (It'd be a lot faster but I make a ton of mistakes still)
Okay... time for the other topic of this post. Changes:
(WIP, NOT FINAL)(1st before, 2nd after) (Ruby is more finalized than Moon)
Ruby and Moon are the most recent to be hit with the update bat.
Ruby was one of the first characters I made for WVM and I made it work for a while but with the upcoming pool party scene it made it very apparent that something had to change. She stood out and not in a positive way.
(Not the first instance of this happening but I tweaked other scenes for her)
At first I tried to tweak her a bit and fix some of the issues but the more I tweaked the more I realized it was time for a new model... and with Moon being her sister and having similar issues she needs changed as well.
It's hard to say exactly why but I think these new models fit the respective characters / personalities way more so than the previous as well.
(Another reminder, these are not final but they are the direction they're headed in. I'll tweak throughout the week and have an update for you in the next mind drop )
Changes always bring up interesting topics and causes some to panic about more characters getting the update bat. So I want to be fully transparent and say that there are only two characters that may have some large changes in the future. Lauren (possible rework) and Katie (possible tweaks, not rework)(These are for similar reasons as Ruby and Moon) the other girls are safe.
If you hate the changes I'd say give it some time. There'll be tweaks and I think it'll grow on you.
That's all for this week! Thank you guys for everything.
I hope you all have amazing weeks and I'll see you soon, love you guys. <3

I don't mind the changes to some of the models if BD wants to. I see it more like he wants people to be more interested in them which if a change means he thinks that's possible so be it. The only problem i have are small with the new models like ruby's eyebrow, eyes and lips not looking natural, I actually like her new hair.
On Moon i don't like the eyebrows and eyes also i actually liked the side tilt on the hair in front of the face.
Still doesn't bother me if it's his choice to change his models either or it doesn't matter if BD wants to change em let him. The new models might grow on people who knows.

I seriously dislike them, but as you say it's Braindrop's vn. He has done so much for his fans both paying and pirates like me that I can't bad mouth him for the few things I dislike...
except he if added more Damien to the story... ahem besides that I will still be a fan

I'm 100% positive in the next 5 years there will be love for her indeed, for her fansAny love coming for Emiko? She's just so damn cute!
I want to see one of Damien's spy report

That's why I think that her living with them for a while will be what does it, if she sees for herself that he really does care for all of the girls and isn't just looking to get his dick wet, and that there's far more love in that house than in her own, she may be resistant for a while but eventually she'll realise the truth. Of course I might be wrong, there might be some big singular event that changes her mind like Ryker trying to kill Jamie and him saving her, but I really hope not. Technically that would pass my 'keep drama relevant to the girls' rule but I really hope we're done with that kind of thing.
None of my saves are working.

If the option came up in the story, I'd be likely to put a bullet in Ryker. That'd end it, for sure. lol
Even write in an excuse to get away with it.

I'm petty myself, Ryker and Damien would be found after making a "lover's Suicide pact". Damien's mom would be taken care of through a certain charity, if she even exists. So it's good I don't writeIf the option came up in the story, I'd be likely to put a bullet in Ryker. That'd end it, for sure. lol
