 I fallowed your instructions. After the game restart, I got hit with this error:
Code: [Select]
While running game code:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 86, in script
    python:
  File "game/script.rpy", line 94, in <module>
    crazy_chars = load_crazy_characters()
  File "game/library/functions.rpy", line 144, in load_crazy_characters
    if isinstance(filetag, basestring):
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'filetag' referenced before assignment
Btw. I never used any of crazys or wh girls for PyTFall before, so I’m probably lacking some file.  :(

There is a chance that I've failed to anticipate complete absense of Crazy packs (I believed that I have). I'll take a look tonight if time permits.

There is only a dev version that is not set up as a playable game. You'll have to wait for a couple more month.

That's great but I still need to get to the bottom of this. That folder is working for me just fine and I have a lot more CrazyWM packs than just that one folder.

Edit:
**This should be fixed with my next push.

Just push small interface update:

- Progress bar now has a style
- Also new style for mainscreen, girlsmeets dropdown and action buttons
- Add background to all grilsmeets screens and frame for images

Just took a look, it's pretty damn awesome. New "3D" buttons look a lot better as well.

I have a lot of sprites from VN rips, do you guys prefer to look for your own NPCs or it may be worth to upload them somewhere? I was thinking about shamelessly using resources from other games for some NPCs, at these characters have a lot of expressions so they're easy to work with (some girls even have close to 100 sprites).
100 sprites are overkill for me, but generally more npcs are welcomed.

Hi!

Careful with that. You should at least ask the authors for permission.

The simple reason: You don't have to worry about in game characters created by users - the worst that can happen to you is that somebody wants you to take the links to the pack offline, but you can't be sued because it's technically not your content.
NPCs that are included in the game however are your content, therefore you are responsible for copyright or trademark infringements.
Have fun!

**We've have this conversation for this game already and decided not to bother with it.

Almost all existing packs were made by Cherry and me, they are not third-party content. Also we have multiple icons and backgrounds that are not ours as well. It's too late to care about copyright.
The game is free and all resources are from open sources, so there is little sense in tracking our ips.

I think girlsmeets require too much AP. It's 1AP per line, you barely able to talk with one girl.
I'd rather have 1AP per girl and limited number of lines per meeting.

That would enable spamming, I'll think about what can be done here, maybe 1/3 of an AP or something...

I've added quest progression to frog events, didn't test it yet.

Maybe. Currently girlsmeets are a bit too expensive compared to other actions. For 1 AP you can have a full fight at arena and get exp and money or talk once with one girl for 10 seconds or so and get minor bonus to disposition.
Especially since girlsmeets will be more complex in the future, when we'll have time to recode it.

Hi!
A time based system would solve this problem in a very elegant way, but that would mean some oh so despised code base changes.  :-\

But seriously, introducing 1/3rd APs or a subsystem that maps one action point to three gm action points isn't much less effort, it's just a lot more dirty with guaranteed inflexibility.
Have fun!
