It's a Gluttonous Life - a0.39.2 (public), a0.40.0 (Patreon)

Forget jpg... I remembered that renpy supports webp (which can do transparency) so after I got 0.21 I wrote a script to convert everything in the images directory (and made the necessary script edits). The result is that the entire images directory is now less than 50 megs, with individual images being mostly in the 30k range. This puts the game directory at around 600 megs, with 500+ of that being audio. I'm not much of an audio person so I'm not sure how you'd get that down - though I did notice that the files in ambience and music are particularly large for their durations so could possibly stand to be recompressed into ogg or something.

Now this has some potential, but your numbers dont make sense to me...? My images folder (I tested in 20.1) was over a gig by itself (not including audio), and just over 800mb if I removed all mod images. I converted them all to webp and they went down to 32mb (without mod images). 800 to 32. I'm going to fiddle with the converter to try and save a bit more quality but the difference in quality is going to be very difficult if not impossible to notice on a cellphone screen.

But yeah, thanks for pointing that out!

The numbers look ok to me. I was a bit wary when I saw a 5 meg png turn into a 40k webp - I was worried the compression was garbage, or the transparency got lost or something, but it all seems ok. I can't tell the difference in game. On my end, the images directory was something over a gig, and completely compressed went to 45 megs, which sounds like about the amount of compression you're seeing.

I did end up writing a script to convert the wav files to ogg and it reduced the audio directory from 550 megs to 28 megs, again with no apparent quality loss in game. Though the script changes were more extensive this time. This brings the game directory down to 104 megs.

Well... Although version 0.19.1 worked perfectly in joiplay, the new version, v0.21.1, just completely does not work for some reason... Joiplay still opens every other game I had on it, just not this one. Any fixes?

I had been toying with the idea of making a pred that uses chance/gambling as their way to get prey but decided to work on other things. If anyone kinda wants to salvage that work into something here is a self contained sort of black jack mini game that should be easy to re-purpose.

I'm actually planning on having that kind of thing for Jasmine, since she's a professional gambler. I just... haven't gotten around to it yet.

[Sriseru]

Noted. I believe KingKodaka did something similar in testing a while back, as we've been searching for several different compression methods in order to make and keep the mobile version viable.

Forget jpg... I remembered that renpy supports webp (which can do transparency) so after I got 0.21 I wrote a script to convert everything in the images directory (and made the necessary script edits). The result is that the entire images directory is now less than 50 megs, with individual images being mostly in the 30k range. This puts the game directory at around 600 megs, with 500+ of that being audio. I'm not much of an audio person so I'm not sure how you'd get that down - though I did notice that the files in ambience and music are particularly large for their durations so could possibly stand to be recompressed into ogg or something.

Could you share that script with me? The only real reason I'm still using PNGs in the game is because it's too much effort to convert every single image, so being able to batch convert them all like that would help immensely.

[Seifens]

Give me a bit to polish it up some. I wrote it to do this one thing one time, so it's not very friendly or scalable. Aside from that so you know, it's a python script that you have to run from the command line, and will require you to install the python runtime as well as some additional things so hopefully that's ok.

That's fine.

[Seifens]

That's fine.

All right, here's the script. It wouldn't let me attach it with the .py extension, so you'll have to rename it yourself.

To get it to work you'll need the python runtime, plus the Pillow and Pydub packages, as well as ffmpeg installed somewhere on your path.

The script checks timestamps, so can be used to update output files from the source files without doing any unnecessary work. The initial conversion will take several minutes, but subsequent updates will be much faster.

Place it in the root of the project (outside of the game directory), or you can edit the directories that are specified in the script by hand. I specifically targeted the images and audio directories, since there are a number of pngs in the gui directory which may intentionally be left lossless. If that's not a concern and you just want to convert literally everything, aim both converters at './game'. You'll need to update script references to the files that contain extensions either way.

For the record, I'm placing this work in the public domain, so anyone can feel free to use or modify it for any purpose without my consent.

I wish I knew how to code so I could help.

[Bluetongue]

I'm having an issue that's causing a crash and it seems pretty consistent. I encountered it in a0.20.something and it seems to still exist in a0.21.1 with a fresh install. It seems that either massaging or kicking while eaten by Sigrid is causing an issue:

While running game code:
ScriptError: could not find label 'side_pred_vore_massage'.

-- Full Traceback ------------------------------------------------------------

Full traceback:
File "scripts/Homes/elaines_home/home1_kitchen.rpyc", line 67, in script call

I suspect this may only be on the Mac version? I suppose I could create a fresh save to see if it is persistent. Doesn't seem to happen with other preds.

Edit - It seems to be almost any pred interaction with Sigrid? and it occurs on a new save, so she seems to be completely broken for me at the moment as a pred.

My framework breaks that part of the game on 20.1 and 21.1, sadly. There isnt a working current version of the game out at this moment. You should find several other preds are just as broken because of it. Extract 21.1 again and dont install the framework, and sigrid should work correctly in that version.

[ipeerownu]

I have Flurby's Framework 1.3 intended for 19.1 working correctly in version 0.21.1 for the game. Haven't encountered issues yet.

Can anyone map out Eline's timetable for the week?

[bees123]

Loving this game, it does seem that Investing is pretty much impossible though as even with max Investing and Intelligence, the stocks I invest in never seem to go up. Besides that, Elaine and Jasmine are fantastic!

A few questions though:
1) What are the current plans for Catarina and Beatrice? I don't mind if they're not going to be expanded on for a while, just wondering so I know what to look forward to
2) Will there be reforming options? Maybe a Lifesaver that reforms you at the hospital?
3) Will there be an option to give the antacid/antipeptic packets to the preds, so they can take them while you're digesting? As long as they remember, that is

Looking forward to seeing how this game continues to develop, you've done fantastic work so far!

Dang! I must have missed that if it was in an earlier post, my bad. That's too bad, the mod is excellent! I'll just wait until there is an updated version. Thanks a ton!

Hey there really love the game, but after maxing all the skills what does investing do for me?
