discussion Ren'Py [Koikatsu] Endara Chronicles: The Apothecary [v0.8d SE] [Soniram]

[thatoneuser]

There is a patch out. I thought it was in the main post but apparently was lost in the edit transfers.

You must be registered to see links

Download and unzip/unrar into the main EC The Apothecary folder. It should ask you to overwrite files. Choose yes.

If you didn't get a prompt to replace the files, you probably put it in the wrong place.

Oops. Wrong file. Guess it got leaked lol

All working now, thanks friend!

i really enjoy this game but it is very easy to get lost or miss a step while playing and sometimes the hints arent always clear but i would still recommend this game

Yes; there is some kind of love potion related to the brothel that I never have gotten to appear in my recipes. All the different threads can be confusing at times.

The Velvet Drink gives you the recipe called "charis", a little nod to the word "charisma". That's the Velvet Drink.

Maybe I need to make that a little more clear.

 

[BgileMunro]

OMG Thank you! I thought they were two different things.

Have played through all but a little of the most recent update. Game has a quality story and animations with love interests that feel unique and distinct from each other. I will admit to the heads/faces looking a bit... peculiar at first (especially in the screencaps) but they look better when actually in the game. Would recommend, 7/10

Yeah, I wasn't very good at character design when I started. I'm not any better now, but I wasn't good then, either.

I like that most of the characters have real emotional development, so you get into the story instead of just playing for the sex scenes. Of course I like those as well ...

I'm a big believer that characters drive story. Even when I try to make something that's basically all NSFW stuff, story just seems to happen.

I wasn't a huge fan of the general looks of some of the characters (Reece, for example), but the characterization and writing endeared every last one of them to me. I subbed to your Patreon within minutes of finishing my playthrough of 0.6 (IIRC). Great characters, great romance, great humor.

Crazy how good character writhing and story can carry things like "unique character design". Keep up the good work!

 

[thatoneuser]

Gave this a go and although I'm not a fan of sandbox games I did not end up needing the guide at all really. Would've liked maybe a bit better model work (maybe animation) but the story is well done and the character are actually likeable. Cute girls are always a major win in AVNs. Good job sir, very much worth a playthrough if only just to enjoy some story.

All threads are stuck before esbat . Can someone help and tell me what to do next?
I am attaching the save file, it is on page 20, slot 6.

The chimera does not progress, it is always the same dream. Because of this, it is impossible to do Horace events.

There are 2 more bugs.
1. When traveling from the city to the apothecary, the day counter does not increase. It's like the character just teleports away.
2. After completing Thayise's tasks, go to her camp - mate - back - game crash.

What version are you running?

 

[AndyOTR]

What version are you running?

I think latest + patch. I recently downloaded it from the first post.
In game itself I don’t see a version indication, as is done in other games.

ps: for Windows version

ps2: I have now downloaded both patches, judging by the size of the scripts.rpa file, I have 0.8c. I'll try to install the 0.8d patch and check..

In Windows, the version is at the top of the window on the left. If it's fullscreen, you won't see it.

I will take a look at your save when I get a few minutes. The fact you are getting those errors leads me to believe you need the 0.8d version. Check the top post for the latest patch (it was 0.8c here but is now updated).

 

[AndyOTR]

I checked it at 0.8d, almost everything is the same. The chimera thread is blocked, the day counter does not increase when traveling from the city to the apothecary. But in the Thayise camp there is no more crash.

Are you taking the ride or travelling as normal?

 

[AndyOTR]

Are you taking the ride or travelling as normal?

As normal, the lowest option.

 

[Soniram]

As normal, the lowest option.

Going back and checking, there's actually no time change coded for the trip from Rilea to the shop. I'll have to fix that for the next version. You caught an error that's been there probably since 0.5. Thanks.

 

[AndyOTR]

What about Chimera? How to move it from a dead point? I make a potion, drink it before bed, always have the same dream, no progress. I’ve probably already made more than 10 potions, I’m already tired of growing cardus -)
