So I had version 1.05. Will the hotfix for 1.09b to c also work for 1.05?
Whenever I download a new version of the renpy games it will transfer the saves somehow but it usually forgets what dialog I have seen before so the skip function won't be an option. Makes it hard to determine if it is unfound vs already seen content. So if the above isn't possible how do I transfer saves and progress in a way that doesn't cause this to happen?
The hotfix is only for updating 1.09(b) to 1.09c, sorry.
It doesn't contain any of the new images and animations.
If you're on PC, I guess you could try copying the "cache" subfolder from your 1.05 installation to an installation of 1.09c.
Since the info what lines have been seen doesn't seem to be stored in savegames, that's the only data I can think of that might be responsible for storing this info.
Though 1.09 makes a pretty big engine jump from Renpy 8.0.3 to Renpy 8.3.7, so no guarantees that this works and doesn't break everything ^^'
Definitely make a backup of the 1.09c cache folder first.
All that being said, 1.09 adds only 3 new types of content:
- The showers in the westwing and eastwing,
- some very late-game beach bonus events,
- and some very late-game marriage options.
No other new content in the main game sandbox or story, so if you completed all content that was in 1.05, identifiying the new content should be fairly straightforward, because anything not listed above isn't new.
Thanks for the help, I will test the cache idea soon. The only reason I had the issue was that I haven't finished the base game yet. I am into chapter 2 but I have been pacing myself so sometimes when I am going through the sandbox grindy parts it is useful to skip or half read, but sometimes you run into something new. So overall even if the issue isn't fixed by the cache it still shouldn't be an issue. Thank you again.
