Dear Pocket Diary #5
🕑 Added 2025-07-09 19:25:07 +0000 UTCIt's been a little bit since I last opened my beloved diary, but it's so jam-packed with idiotic statements that I had to leave it alone for a moment...to reflect.
Now that chapter 5 is released, I am working to fix a few things. Which will, by the looks of things, all be fixed by the next tier release. Now I have to explain why they weren't just fixed by first release. I was stressed out by the amount of time that this chapter took to finish...that's it. I will update the link on Sunday for the next tier release, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
The list: All player cards, album working, minor bug fixes, some spelling,
Player cards: are going to be done today. All pertinent characters will have one. They are all in chronological order, so if one is locked and you have played through the whole game, just go back to an earlier save and skip though. That should unlock it. Sorry for that inconvenience.
Album: Currently working on the album functionality. It looks like all will be resolved without breaking saves, and it also looks like it will be able to add player name to all the replay files. You will have to enter your character name again at the beginning of chapter 5. But that is it. And it will insert the name in all replay files. There is one thing that I'm unsure of and that is the image representing the replay. Currently it's just an out of focus blob. I need to figure out what and how to fix that once you unlock a scene. I've also changed the coding for animations so that the music doesn't get cut off while in the scene, so that needs to be reflected in the replay.
Bug Fixes: Currently I've caught a few (some thanks to DogCat Studios), most seem straight forward. Although one is testing my patience. The text box (which you now can get rid of in preferences) doesn't want to display in the correct spot. If you don't need it, turn it off. I'll try to fix it, so it doesn't look like...well, shit.
Spelling will be done by next tier release.
And lastly. The first render is done for chapter 6! Only 1,500 or so to go!
Thank you all for being patient. I will start rendering seriously today (first scene is written, most of the chapter is mapped out.) I will make no more projections, as I seem to be almost clinically insane with my rosy predictions.

No break. I have a week of vacation toward the end of the month, so that will be the break. I'm pretty spent after coding for what seemed to be forever, but there are things to be fixed and I feel it needs to happen now. So yeah, vacation later:-)
