Lisa: Silence in the Rain [v3.4.3]

v3.4.3 Fix 2

=== SLEEP AS SOON AS YOU LOAD YOUR SAVE ===
=== SAVE ON A NEW SLOT JUST IN CASE ===

When you load in, press the Tab key on your keyboard to access the new Mini Archive. Use the archive if you’re ever lost or wondering what’s left in the patch. Every node in the Archive is interactable and will display location / requirements for each mini event.
Everything new can be found in that UI element. This will be updated for all new mini series added to the game so get used to it ^_^

Assuming that you have 25 or higher Deviancy, you can safely ignore the Deviancy requirements in choices and in the Mini Archive as they’ve been disabled until more minis are added to the game and higher Deviancy levels are achievable.
If you’re interested in seeing all of the content, 16 Exhibitionism is also required.
I doubled back on my earlier idea of showing the Exhibitionism requirements somewhere and instead decided to leave it as an added bonus for players who have progressed with the Open Exhibitionist website because everything in this patch is repeatable so you can’t actually miss any content permanently.

As it stands, 3.4.0 is centered around Simon (Copy Guy) and the expanding sequences involving him.
I had originally hoped to include the Kisses for Kittens booth in this launch as well, but rather than delay the completed material, I decided to release the Copy Guy content now before I have to step away for several days due to an unavoidable family matter.

The good news is that the kissing booth is not being pushed into some distant future patch. It is already a primary focus of the next release and will follow very soon.

The Copy Guy series can begin as soon as Lisa joins the council and it’s a full character arc from first meet to being genuinely good friends (with benefits??) by the end. There’s a ton of new events and a ton of room for expansion in the future which is exciting for me and I hope it will be for you too.

This is the closest that any patch has been to development taking longer in RPGM than it did in Daz3D. I finished all CGs, including over a hundred not even included here at the end of May and since then I’ve been working almost exclusively in RPGM which is absolutely insane but I really wanted this series to feel good. To bind the RPGM world with the CG world as seamlessly as I could because the biggest gripe that I have with my own game is that it doesn’t utilize RPGM nearly enough and mini events are the perfect way to marry the two together.

Other additions:
New Update Rate plugin.
This was an attempt to replicate the “ctrl” function when using MTool. When ctrl is held, the game will now double in speed. This includes during exploration, not just during events.
Ctrl will also skip text so the button is a lot closer in functionality to that which you find in Ren’Py. This plugin also stacks with MV’s action key speedup during events so skipping through content or exploring the game world should be significantly faster than it was before. Alongside the new text draw speed in the previous patch, replaying old content or skipping through sections of the Recollection Room that you aren’t interested in should be much more tolerable.
There is no option in game to re-map the keybind currently but that’ll likely be added later on.

v3.2.3
Full changelog

3.1.5
Obviously the Mod Shop scene is finished but there are a few backend changes that might help with users that have been crashing. I think I might’ve also solved my own issues with the engine crashing (which was how I lost the DS Sharing scene way back at the start of last year) so that’s all good news. Of course let me know if you’re still having problems with the game stalling though, I’m just hopeful that we might one day have a functional game for everyone ^_^

v3.0.5
Bugfixes

v3.0.4
This isn’t a content patch, just to get that out of the way ^_^ there are some 30~ new images but they’re all related to the Faithful Route at Jayce’s Party.
1: All known bugfixes including loops + black screens.
2: Orgy complete + Finale rewrite (Recollection Room also updated)
3: DS Faithful route complete
4: DL Skip option added (low arousal only)

v3.0.2

For anyone that’s already played the patch the only thing added here are bugfixes and the Finale next morning event which is 30 something CGs (this has also been added to the Recollection Room if you want to see it – it’s in the orgy room). Lets hope it works! ^_^

There’s still work to be done on the leave early routes and such but I’ll go into more detail on all of that AND ALSO what’s coming next over the weekend in a HUGE resident post! I have a million things to talk about so I hope you have a 30 minute slot free to read the pale madness that’s on the horizon!

I’ve fixed dozens of bugs in this patch since it’s initial release but there could still be issues lurking in there so if you find anything just let me know and I’ll fix it ASAP! xo

There will be more patches in the coming weeks with the leftover content and also completed versions of content already available in this patch but they’ll just be going straight to public and once that’s all done I can finally wash my hands of one of the most stressful periods of my bloody life lol!
The next patch will include the “unlock all” option in the Recollection Room. It’s a boring, snooze-fest of a task that I’ve put off for a long time now so I’m just gonna put my head down n’ do it ^_^ (I can hear that one guy out there pumping his fist reading this xD)

But that’s about it! Thank you to everyone for trying out the game, thanks to everyone for the absurd amount of help I’ve received finding all of the shitty bugs this patch and thanks to everyone who’s been flooding my inbox with the sweetest, most gorgeous messages I’ve ever received. I’m pretty awkward responding to praise but don’t mistake my oddness for anything but the most sincere gratitude, they’ve really made me feel amazing this past couple of weeks (I was gonna say fortnight but I stopped myself, I’m learning man!! lol!) <3 x

Love you all to pieces, have an amazing weekend everyone x

v2.90b
– Added Sharing next morning event
– Linux version not available for this update

v2.853

FINALLY! It’s over! I literally just saw a few CGs that could’ve done with being updated in the Rubbin’s events but I’m not recompressing everything again tonight lol ^_^

I’ve been a bit worried about re-uploading the game because it’s not like I can assume that releasing in tiers will filter out any glaring bugs because there’s no further content and it’s unlikely that returning players will be starting new games anytime soon so I’ve really tried to be as thorough as I possibly can in as little time possible but as always if you find something iffy in there please let me know asap <3 I think the most likely errors that could still be floating around in there are references to Paul.

Playing through the first hours of the game was tough. Like it was really tough to look at some of it lol! The introductory section of the game was inundated with these predatory grins and really amateur renders but I’m sure you all know this already ^_^ It did take quite some hours to play through the entire thing, re-render some really bizarre images and adjust some of the dialogue to be less “rigid” though a lot more work needs done at some point but I am satisfied for now. I think some of the dialogue was really, really awful for the first portion of the game and I imagine that’s probably because 1: I wrote it before I had a good concept of who each character actually was, so they all interacted like NPCs to some degree which I really don’t like and 2: because I was a much more timid writer back then but it’s been briefly adjusted for the time being though I will revisit it again before the final version of the game.

A lot of the re-rendered scenes are found in the first section of the game like when Lisa first arrives at the house and when meeting Gina at the coffee shop. These didn’t take too long at all as I spent about 1-2 minutes each fixing settings, adjusting lights, rectifying facial expressions, quickly simulating the clothing / hair and finally applying a denoiser then setting it to render whilst I continued with the playthrough. Other scenes are crying out for a remake or at least touching up like Marcus’ early content, Rubbin’s content, Theo’s first jobs, Shopping with Sharon, Danny Nights 1&2 and Swim Trip events but most of these scenes require a full overhaul of the sets or at least the lighting used so that’ll be pushed back until much later. Other glaring issues are CGs with a “sweat” / “wet” shells applied – these tend to look really poor unless under very specific lights so I’d like to address those at a further date too. Noteable scenes with these messy looking shells are Byron Visit & Theo’s Night events. I’ve at least learned how to better apply these for future scenes

Technical (IMPORTANT!):

Added local game saves
-To apply old saves you need to goto the directory: AppData>Local>User
Data>Default and make a new folder called “Lisa” inside which you can place the
contents of the previous save folder. Do not copy the folder itself, only the
.rpgsave files; the fileX, the config and the global files.

I know this is a bit of a pain but this will be the only time you have to apply this
method as from this patch on your saves will populate that folder automatically
(I hope!) so you can freely delete older versions of Lisa. For anyone beginning a
new game you don’t need to create the folder within AppData as any new saves
will create the folder for you automatically.

Added a camera plugin
-This one is significantly less interesting, it’s just a little quality thing that’ll cause
the camera to glide rather than jerk.

Note: Old saves ARE compatible. The journal should be populated with all new content for those that played even before it was introduced but it does work under the assumption that all previous content was completed. (If it wasn’t it shouldn’t be game breaking, though it may cause some confusion).
