PSCD 1.0.2 test

(I won't do the installers again until I'm sure it works!! they take too much time to upload)

Back to square one...
Not really, I think many players never found any crash. But still that bug user Hoa_Binh found exists, so coder sent me a fix. It works like this:
- new games should use a more "compact" form when saving, reducing (or eliminating) the risk of the crash
- existing saves, OUTSIDE the battle, could be used and in theory shouldn't crash again (even if they still contain a lot of data in old format). the safest way should be to try from beginning but of course I can understand that not everyone can do it...

What's New 1.0.2
- fixed a (not very common) save crash bug that so far has been reported by an user. Should happen with long playing sessions with the card game. VN Mode players can again safely ignore this update

fullscreen bug is fixed or not ?


I've same problem with other game. It's strange because before xmas holiday, no problem.

can you help me ?

It's not a bug in the game, but your videocard drivers are likely outdated/buggy. Press shift+G while in game, choose "directX renderer" in the menu that shows up and you might need to update the drivers.

The game crashes often when i save the game (mainly overwrting). Also it takes sometimes like 5 Minutes to start the game.

Are you playing the latest version ? when crashes, what the message says ?
If you continued a previous save, it might still have the crash problem.
5 minutes for starting sounds definitely weird though! I never heard of this before

Until I upgraded my comp all Ren'py games took at least 1-2 minutes to start. It got worse and worse with each new version of Ren'py tbh.

No the startup times should be better now, since SOTW. The coder implemented a sort of caching system, and we measured it (on mobile, but works the same on desktop too) and was improving by a good 50-60%.
Of course it also depends on the game framework (in this case the card system).
It's weird though because IotaOne system is better than mine (I have a i3-2120 dual core). I did use a new version of Ren'Py, so that might be the cause. Here it works fine though (I have 2 PCs and 1 Mac 1 Linux and tested on all the systems, no slow down or crashes even if I couldn't play it for long).

I am using an old Save. Seems like I have to start over.
The Startup problem is not reproduceable for me, might only be my issue.

That said, i like the game so far. It catches the TCG feeling very well, the bad and the good.

Thanks, I like those kind of games (play and design)
