Interesting. Anyone can link where we have the renders for each of the past episodes ? Curious to compare

Neither. He's saying he'll probably need 2 weeks for testing, but that's after he's done what's left which currently consists of:

• A queue of 125 renders and 37 animations
• Roughly 10-15 animations he has left to pose and render
• 150-300 static renders to pose and render
• Phone content
• 2 free-roam events
• Coding.

That might all take another few weeks, then DPC will playtest and polish it before sending it to the testers and that might take 2 weeks. So end of October/start of November is looking most likely.

Thanks, i almost hope we could get this update in 2 weeks... a little bit naive.

Regarding updates etc, when a vn is updated. How do you handle the installation? Just unzip the new update and overwrite the old folder?

Im starting to get multiple givers for thre sake vn street a few updates. I don't want to screw with losing saves etc.

2 ways of getting the update:

1. Get the whole game which will be around 11GB according to DPC
2. Get the update patch, which will be considerably smaller at around 2GB, and apply it to the current copy you have of the game (best to probably have 0.5.2).

Option 2 will overwrite some files, like the Season 2 .rpy files and probably the gallery and gui .rpy files since we're getting a new look Special Render menu, but it shouldn't mess with the saves files so long as they were all made with the clean version and not the mod version.

Kinda loking forward to seeing how many renders each character gets in this one. Maya's still way out in the lead with both renders (1245) and animations (73), so it will be interesting to see if she stretches that lead further or if anyone can catch up.

Yeah I use mods (walkthrough and gallery mods)

Well, if you've made saves with those mods (i.e. you made changes to stats, etc, and saved the game), they won't work with the patch update. You need a clean, unmodded version of the game and clean unmodded saves to be able to continue.

Is it bad I have a 1tb ssd dedicated to vn's?
And it's already half filled?

Dude You need a gf xD

I download several at a time, haven't played them all yet. I also haven't deleted anything either.

I date around but nothing serious as I work 50-60 hrs a week. My job is stressful enough, so when I get home, I make dinner, relax and maybe check out a vn. A steady gf would be nice, but at my age it's s but more involved.

Thanks! The 3004 renders and 153 animations are the final figure or estimated for now and will probably grow? Anyone knows?

this continuous increase in renders and animations as players can only please us, but doesn't it make you fear that the times between one episode and the next may expand?

I have too many semi-lost games in my heart ...

Don't take my comment seriously, I was just kidding, I don't have that many games, but I must have almost 60gb

No. I don't think he'll ever go beyond 5 months per update, and whilst that is still a long time considering how many possible episodes there still are (10 more episodes x 5 months = 4.2 years), the quality you get for it is worth the wait.

you don't need to start a new clean save, simply use the "DETECTED MOD" ERROR FIX and you'll be good to go.

I just cleaned up 100GB by deleting zip files from my downloads folder. Should clean up another 100 if I delete old versions of games that I keep for some reason I don't remember

I have almost the same. I have a lot of such games that I have played and if I like it, I leave it to play again sometime. Some games, however, take up a lot of space.

how does it work?

regularize saves with mod?

No problem, no harm no foul, the games fill up really quick, I was shocked to see how full that drive got so quickly.

Plus I've been building a 3D library with daz3d in effort to learn and create my own project some day, maybe, lol.

 

[Tserriednich'sNen]

it allows you to play/load modded saves immediately so you don't have to load up a clean save or start over a new clean game just to play the latest update when it drops. It's also needed if you want to install the latest mod version.

never overwrite the old folder...asking for a world of issues. Just unzip and play. Saves will be pucked up from the appdata folder. I keep all my VN's in a folder for the title/series....in that folder are stuff such as patches/WT's etc. I extract a new update to that VN's folder...once I know the current version hasn't any major bugs etc I'll just delete the previous update.

Heh good luck with that and keeping organised. I have a sep drive purely for daz stuff...3gb and counting just for assets on that drive
