Hi Ertal!
I'm loving the game so far, Ferdinand and Gilles are my favorites!
I have a couple of bugs to report, so SPOILERS:
(Note that I'm going after the Ferdinand route and mostly working in the shop in the mornings and training with Emile in the afternoons)
1. After the first couple of weeks, if I go to the River Bank to paint in the mornings I always get the "Today, I feel rather lost" script and I get no points in my art training whatsoever. However, I train with Emile in the afternoons all the time so it feels like it shouldnt be like that.
2. I have gotten the afternoon date with Gilles (the one where you go to the cafe, Paul tells him the story about the girl at the flower shop and the Gilles kisses Paul in the mouth "as a friend" three times so far in random afternoons.
3. Sophie's morning visit at the flower shop (the one where Paul convinces her to visit Henri at the River Bank) has happened twice so far, altough she has already met Henri at the river bank and Henri has thanked Paul for it.
It feels like maybe I did something that causes these parts of code to repeat themselves every week (or maybe every day for bug 1)
I'd be happy to give you more info if you need to get to the bottom of this!
Oh, thank you, I'll take a look as soon as possible!
For the first error, do you train art basics with Emile in the afternoon? Since you only get art basics points when you practice on your own, those are the points the game checks: you need a minimum (that increases each week) to keep progressing on your own.
For the second, the evening scene with Gilles only happens on Friday... but I'll check the variables so you can only get it once. I guess I made a typo again! *sigh *😭 The third must be the same kind of error. I hope the next update is the definitive one!
Okay, I am back with further to report:
1. I got a lot more art basics points but I'm still getting the same message at the river bank in the mornings... but maybe it's just too late to have enough art basics points at this point.
2. If I go back to the house in the evening, Nathalia and Denis tell me that Club 55 is closed and Ophelia and Ferdinand have dissapeared!
However, in these same evenings I can still go to Club 55 and it's open and functional (but without Fer or Ophelia in there), and I can also visit Ferdinand in his house and he shows up as if nothing's wrong (there was even a sex scene between Fer and Paul).
3. If I go to Ferdinand's house after having had sex he is cold to Paul and doesnt let him in. BUT if I go again the next day there is a buggy scene where it shows me Nathalia outside the flower shop while repeating the text where Paul and Fer make out before having sex ("He hums in agreement against my lips, etc etc"), then it skips to the bottoming scene with Paul and Fer.
I'm playing the 1.1 version, by the way, but using saves I made halfway through the game in the 1.0 version.
Hmmm... Those bugs were supposedly fixed some updates ago (and they definitely doesn't exist in my code anymore), so I think they show up because you're using old saves. The only remaining issue I can find in the current version is the game finishing once you reach 3rd April (because it was initially coded that way).
It's me again :/
So, I started the game again, from scratch, using the latest update only.
1. Now I can get a lot of art basics points at the river bank in the mornings, so that one is solved.
2. I noticed something new, after I help Emile chase his stalker away at the river bank, the icons with the 4 dates I can ask Emile out on pop up... and they never go away for the rest of the game. I just went back and avoided playing out that scene, since I am not persuing Emile anyway in this playthrough.
3. But!!! I still cant finish the Ferdinand route, or the game. After having sex with him, then going back to his house and he wont let me in, which feels part of his route, if I go to his house the next day it plays out the sex scene again, then the next day (which is April 3rd by the way) I just get the map of Paris but I cant click on any of the destinations. I understand that this is the final date where you can get some sort of ending and maybe I was too slow in progressing Ferdinand's route, so Im locked out of finishing the game.
P.S. Also I could still have dates with Ferdinand and hang out with Henri at the 55 although Ferdinand was supposed to be AWOL and the 55 closed.
I dont know what Im doing wrong at this point... :(
So, I restarted from scratch once more, and I have noticed this:
If I focus my game solely on Ferdinand, ignore everything else and make a routine of working at the flower shop, going to the 55 and visiting his house once available, then I can get the sex scene earlier (on the same day Raoul is visiting) and his route now seems to progress normally instead of gettign stuck.
I'm really sorry, I'm adding another week after April 3rd, but my progress has been very slow due to family problems.
Some of the errors you mention have been already fixed, and I'll check all the others, like the sex scene repeating (lol that must have been so weird!). Thank you so, so much for pointing out the errors so I can work on them, and thank you again for your patience.
