SITAR 1.1 Update... UPDATED AGAIN AND AGAIN!!
Added 2023-07-04 16:45:48 +0000 UTC
If you have Something's In The Air Redux version 1.0 or 1.01, here is the patch to 1.1 I am working on so far.
IT IS NOW COMPLETE!! and in beta pending a thorough play test I am doing now.
Voice work in all paths has been done, and some places I wasn't planning on voicing, like the elemental realms stuff has now been partially voiced, too.
Eleven Labs has a new feature where you can find popular random generated voices that other users have found useful, This has allowed me to replace some of the minor NPC voices I wasn't happy with. While I liked Ariane, Rachel, Lydia, Veronica, and Wendy voices from the get go several of the minor characters, namely Evan, Tassiana, Pinky, Rebecca, and Tom had this whiny pitch to them that seems to be very common with random voices. But now that I have access to better voices, I was able to replace them with more pleasant voices.
Like it or not this is the future of renpy gaming.
Once out of Beta, I plan to make a Steam version, while voicing focus will change to Date Ariane Remastered.
I'm planning the steam release already. One sure thing that will cause a rejection on Steam is "age-play", even the appearance of age-play is not allowed. To prevent it, I changed the age-play scene in the top club to a geisha scene, with Ariane's hair going from pigtails to ponytail. I think it turned out fine, but I will release an "unpatch" at a future date to anyone who prefers the school girl outfit.

Now I got it to work by deleting a file. Thank you kindly!

2023-07-05 19:16:42 +0000 UTCThanks, I was unable to fix it. This error seems to be related to a translation file. Check the "game" directory and erase any directories under games called "tl". This game doesn't use translation files, but it is possible, it is trying to use old ones. If you can't find that, in the games directory, delete rachel.rpyc or rachel.bak or rachel.rpy.bak and try relaunching, the rachel.rpyc file should be recreated. If that still doesn't work, you might need to redownload SITAR 1.01 from itch.io then reapply the patch.
