Hey guys! It's that time. I know a lot of you have really been looking forward to this update. I was up till like 6AM working on getting things ready, and I still feel like something is missing. I've tweaked a variety of things, tried some more new things, and just really jammed a lot of content into this update. So, here's a bit of what we've got going on in this update. ~ Title Screen!! Finally, you guys no longer have to look at that terrible thing I called a title screen! Thank you so much for all your support. Since you guys helped trash my goal, this was the first thing I wanted to have done. CursedMarked did an AMAZING job on it, and I love it. Thank you! ~Day 14 for Coach Grifter - OOOOOH, he asked you out on a date, and it's time (but is this Date 1 or 2?)! I really got carried away with his little date, so there's a bunch of different things you can do with it. This was a really tedious area to check due to the options, but I hope I got everything straightened out. Much love to my man for helping me out with that. In the first few minutes of testing it, I had a handful of minor typos that caused things to break. I really hope you guys enjoy this update for him. I can't wait to continue with it. ~Day 12 for Chester - Convention time! And with that, we have a Patron requested costume from Regonoreth, and then a Patron sprite for Aurynx, of his character, Carson. Both of these are from months ago, but I haven't had a place to put them till now. I added a variety of sounds to his route (and if they bother you, PLEASE tell me). Adjusting the volume is really difficult since... You have computer volume controls, in game volume controls, then I have scripting volume controls... So, getting the volume right is tough. Chester's route was fun to work with too, and his next update I can't wait for either! Again, extensive testing on his route (though I think there was something that didn't click right still but didn't cause a crash at least!). Again, CM did an awesome job with the Armor for Chester <3 NOW SOME BAD NEWS! I asked on the Ren'Py forums about the issue I was having with people encountering errors for new variables whenever they came across them. Despite the coding I'm using, I was told by a veteran member that people should be restarting, otherwise they will encounter errors. So, from this point on... a clean restart each update might be best. You can always try loading a file first, but if it crashes and says a variable isn't defines... You have to restart. I spent a lot of time trying to get around that, but whenever I loaded up old files, it normally crashed on me. To help make up for this, I'm going to create a little guide for each character and include it next time to get you guys the most preferred ending to the routes. It'll help skip through things faster! As well, no help on my issue with the image gallery issue! I have... another method to use now (thought of through my laziness!). But, I haven't implemented it yet. Still hoping to reduce my overall file size. And for my new supporters, some important information! Keep in mind, if you find in crashes or bugs, let me know! If it crashes, try starting your file over from the start before messaging me (It's what I'll tell you to do anyway! x3) and see if it crashes again at the same point. If so, snag a screenshot and send it my way! Or, copy the text and send me a message . Please see the following image to know what I need, that way you aren't sending a wall of text! That always helps me out, as I do miss things from time to time when checking for these errors. And so you don't have to read ALLLLL the text again, don't forget, you can go into Preference and set the Skip Text message to ALL. From there, just hold down CTRL to skip text faster. If you find a typo, all you have to do is let me know whose route, what day, and the sentence. I can find it easily from there! You don't have to go through the trouble of screenshotting that and sending it to me (unless you think it's easier!). Thank you to the guys that have already done this, as it helps me out tremendously! Please keep in mind though, character dialogue is not meant to be perfect (except Coach's). It's part of their character. So much thanks to Regonoreth too. He's been extraordinarily helpful over the months. I hope I didn't forget anything... If I did, you'll know!
