Magical Diary (Sim/RPG) now with trailer video

[selenity136]

Gonna have to ask you about the marriage, but is there going to be some fanservice?

[papillon]

That really depends on your definition of fanservice, doesn't it?

I mean, some people would argue that the spanking scene was pretty fanservicey, and others would protest it's not fanservice unless they're all in their underwear at the time...

[selenity136]

The spanking scene was kinda fanservicey, too bad he used a spell instead of palm =p.

Anyway, I am looking forward for the aftermath, especially of what could happen in class or whatnot. Though there wouldn't be a honeymoon kiss would there?

[papillon]

It's going to take a lot more work to get him willing to actually kiss you.

[Megumi]

I was surprised that Grabbery was actually date-able and some others weren't. (I know Rivi is crying about William xD)

And I swear William thinks as long as you favor anybody over him, you fancy that person.

\o/ I hate him~! (Because he is so fake!)

[maypaymusic]

is there like a small walkthrough or f.a.q or some sort of hints teo get onto the paths? xD I'm kinda finding it hard to get onto the path and get some scenes xD

[papillon]

William will get his turn later!

is there like a small walkthrough or f.a.q or some sort of hints teo get onto the paths?

Walkthrough not yet, but you might want to start a topic asking how to get a particular character's path in the magical diary forum so that people can give you tips. I don't have time to write a full guide at the moment because I've got so much plot writing to do, but I'm sure other players can make suggestions!

[Megumi]

I just uh, got married.

Just wanted to tell you that the trophy doesn't want to leave my screen alone even though the trophy was unlocked weeks ago. XD

[papillon]

Oh dear.

Does it stay stuck on screen even if you save and reload the game? (If so, can you send the saved game to Spiky? I'm not sure he's reading this thread.) I had the trophy get stuck once but I reflexively rolled back and forth until it went away; I'm not sure he's actually seen it happen to trace the code problem.

[Megumi]

XD. Since you asked, I reloaded my OMGMARRIED file. (...What, this is fun a title for my save file XD)



I don't mind being Married but I think if I showed this to Rivi, she will congratulate me for my lesbian marriage with Minnie who had dared to kick my ass in the President campaign TAT

And I don't know where is the save file? ^^"" (How is the save file called in the folder? I don't see any "save.py" or anything I expected it to be named like ^^"")

*giggles* Wait, that's not supposed to be in this chapter!

I've got a workaround for the bug in beta 0.3.36.2 - if you've got a trophy stuck onscreen, loading a save with the stuck trophy should make it go away.

While I don't need that particular save, I *think* Vista/Seven saves will be found in
C:\Users\(your username)\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\MagicalDiaryHorseHall\ by default - the files are named things like 1-1-LT1.save, 2-10-LT1.save, etcetera, and they'll always be in a folder called MagicalDiaryHorseHall.

[Megumi]

Okay, I just sent it.

(The file was on my computer while I installed the game on an external drive. Maybe you should try to make it appear in the external drive? I do that because my dad keeps saying I install trash in his comp >_< so I thought putting on my external drive would be handy when I get my new laptop...)


AND I REFUSE TO MARRY MINNIE. I WANT HER WITH THE SERENADE GUY! XDDD

[papillon]

So at last the first in-game kiss is present.

Readers may recall that this game features a design-your-own-character system. And yes, the kissing CGs WILL reflect your character design. (with some limitations - at the moment, glasses aren't available on the CG. That may be added later.)

[papillon]

Sorry I haven't been posting much, been working FRANTICALLY trying to get the game to a complete stage so that we can print discs for the Fanime booth at the end of the month!

People who are in on the alpha can tell you that there have been some DRAMATIC EVENTS happening lately as plot arcs head towards the finale.

Pre-order price is still $15 at the moment - it will be going up again when we hit the end of script (hopefully soon). The script is over 120,000 words and STILL going but the end is near. The graphics for the May Day ball are in (although the script hasn't gotten there so the testers havent seen them yet) and I'm waiting on the title screen image at the moment.

[jack_norton]

I haven't had time to play this much but at $15 is a real bargain, and everyone should get it now!

p.s. Fanime is going to be crowded this year
