NLT

Both bigger and smaller. We want to make SotS cast have the broadest range of body types. So Grace, Leila and Empusa have super small boobs, Julia and Margaret huge ones.

sebastian morgan-lynch

Looks great, but why are the boobs bigger with each installment lol, i feel like they are barely tethered zeppelins at this point

West Grant

Symphony is crazy good man, it has got everything I loved about Genesis order iexcept it's even better than before

Marek Přikryl

The peculiar movement of the speaking characters looks like they are levitating. Probably good for characters with wings, for others the movement is a bit strange. :) Otherwise I don't see a problem. (v.01074 Beta)

Tony Dyess

i cant beat the guy at the junk yard

Karthik Jois

Downloaded v01075, in the SW corner of the Junkyard after retrieving my Thinking Strength Icon. Soon after fight starts, then continuous bouncing effect starts unable to stop unable to continue and will not allow me to exit have to use hard shutdown. I am using windows version.

Connor Bailey

just got done with .74. so far very impressed with how much NLT games seem to improve time after time. Just ready for a lot more already

Burkhardtrader

The patch I recieved from NLT worked, stopped the endless Looping, If U R having difficulty with the immortal warrior, my suggestion is to draw him close to one of the tires and start jumping on the tire and then him it seemed to work for me.

wumme

I like it!

Burkhardtrader

Tjhat last patch seemed to do the trick, worked great. But I do have another question. During the fight sequence I get knocked out, then return again to fight, i noticed that their (green, yellow, red) arrows and life span numbers don't reappear. Is that supposed to happen? So far everything is really interesting. I'm not much into fighting sequences like the younger players are (Forgive me, I'm just an old baby boomer). But i'll try to get the hang of it. Thanks for all your games so far.

Vladimir Arevshatyan

so far I am loving the game, this is serious boost. Keep it up mate, you got this and we will support your masterpieces till the very end!

NLT

I've messaged you a file to test that might fix the bug.

Same Here. Just downloaded v01075, in the SW corner of the Junkyard after retrieving my Thinking Strength Icon. Soon after fight starts, then continuous bouncing effect starts unable to stop unable to continue and will not allow me to exit have to use hard shutdown. I am using windows version.

Vladimir Arevshatyan

For bug that's correct they didn't have HP on their head

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Nice one! You are top tier!

NLT

Lol. No lectures. But yes, I do most of the animation you see in SotS, but in TGO and prior I literally did 100% of everything. Quick question for my testing... Did one of the 4 enemies in the final fight not have an HP number over his head?

Bret Hawkins

I've recorded it. if that helps. just stuck kicking over and over on the last guy..

Vladimir Arevshatyan

I see thanks! I am pretty good at development (10 years experience in Android dev) but I lack designing skills and I reckon you are the animator yourself? Creating all these masterpiece? I never seen suchvivid 3D animations. By any chance, do you give paid lections on how to achive such qualities?

NLT

It's RPGMZ with lots of modifications.

Vladimir Arevshatyan

btw quick question. What's the engine used for development? UE5, Unity or Renpy maybe?

Vladimir Arevshatyan

oh well yes please because it is so stable, I literally can't get past them now, probably had to delete and download all over again. Thanks again btw! good job keep it up and be sure you gotta have another continuation for this one ;)

NLT

I'll continue to test and see if i can reproduce it

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Oh right you are right forgot to say. There is a weird case when hero would continously just punch the guy none stop and it never ends like in the liop

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Yes sure. So it is trashbag. Hit kill. Again trash bag hit kill ( weird enough as in previous version trashbags would dissapear after first kill) then just from behind and kill. Yes correct. Even fresh install doesn't help

Bret Hawkins

Same situation for me. endless fight with the last guy in the scrapyard, and I downloaded the full beta 6 days ago..... Sometimes it just sits there automatically punching him over and over by the bottom barrel

NLT

So even starting a new game or using a save from before the fight, you still get the same result? When you fought the enemies in the dump area, how did you win that fight? Do you remember what moves you used?

NLT

I can't seem to replicate it even after hundreds of attempts. You are in the fight that has the tires surrounding the enemies right? Do you remember anything from right before the fight that you did specifcally. Does the fight always bug, even if you leave the area and come back, or die and restart, or restart from an older save and try again?

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Then I encountered that issue. Decided to do clean install and go from 0. Same

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Tried both. So I initially had 0073, upgraded from 0073.

Hardy Kuenzl

I'm on 00074 and got the endless loop problem in the fight scene too. What is the fix here?

NLT

Did you upgrade from .00072 or did you download the full game?

Eric wade

I’ve already fought everyone in the yard. There are no markers indicating where I’m supposed to go.

Vladimir Arevshatyan

1075

Vladimir Arevshatyan

Very latest one

NLT

What version are you on?

Carlos A soto

their also the part where when you attack one of the guy in the junkyard when you move in a spot near the black artifact in the center bottom it just go in to an endless auto fight that i can't get pass without restarting the game

NLT

What version are you on?

Vladimir Arevshatyan

there is a guy in final junkyard fight, which is immortal, so I can't get past them. The part when you have to kill that bad boys on junk yard to get that black artifact and you then be running and the blackj succub is to summon there to save you from the clip. Right in that fight, the 3rd guy I believe is immortal, no matter how much I hit, it doesn't get forwards, and yeah it missing the count on the head

NLT

The beta is windows and mac only so far. But the web version will come next.

ShadowHawke

Is this a windows only game now? I can't seem to get it to work within Linux?

NLT

The beta test is to get feedback on the systems in place before we get too deep into development to easily change them. For instance, the fight system was completely redone based on feedback from .00072. Be sure to look for markers on the overworld map which indicates places you need go. To get access to the dump you need the key from Tony and the security badge from Alexander. And then you'll also need to talk to the nun at the church to understand how the unknown item works. The store has expensive items, but to get Lucy's content you can don't need that much. You wont really need the expensive gifts until you've leveled up the girls a lot. By then you'll be getting treasures worth thousands.

Eric wade

so far really disapointed.

Eric wade

tony says go to the waste management building. i go there and nothing happens. so far this game feels like it wasnt ready to be released. the vast majority of the map is under developement and the items in the store cost thousands of dollars.

Viking Son

In addition, when I enter the church (room inside) it freezes in black screen.

Viking Son

I downloaded the full and get the same error when I try to interact with anyone

Bjarne Tarkov

{ "name": "rmmz-game", "main": "index.html", "chromium-args": "--force-color-profile=srgb --enable-webgl --ignore-gpu-blacklist", "window": { "title": "Symphony of the Serpent", "width": 1296, "height": 768, "position": "center", "icon": "icon/icon.png" } } Thats what it looks like now, seems fine to me

Bjarne Tarkov

Unfortunatley not

Ray Vernon

Can't wait for more updates in the future..this looks very promising and will be interesting to see where it'll lead. I would say that the fighting mechanics are much improved on the Beta 2 release so thanks for modifying that sequence. Great work NLT!

Cong

Any ETA when the linux launcher will be available?

Tudor Ioan Maracineanu

I just finished the beta and I only have one concern regarding future updates. From what I can preview, Margaret will be a future booty call option. From my perspective, as much as I can see from the beta, I would rework her face as the current one look extremely old. I guess some people will enjoy her scenes, but from my point of view, I wouldn’t like to be forced to see her scenes with her current model. I guess you can go in the direction of Heather from TGO, as they may look similar. Concluding, thank you for the effort, and keep up the good work!

Dryst

While wandering around the junkyard the interactable objects flicker on a five second interval. Display: 1920 x 1080 60hz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 Driver: 535.98

NLT

Very soon. It's almost done

Kuchiki Byakuya

i know this is beta an what not, any idea on when the auto update game launcher will be ready?

NLT

yeah it's a typo

NLT

Might be too technical, but perhaps you can make a RAM Drive using 2 gigs of your ram just for the game. That's a pretty far out there solution though.

dzo

on full game unziped folder shows 0175 version, but in game 1074

Nick

No problem just making sure I wasn’t missing anything. I’ll try to clean up my laptop to try to speed it up some. Any tips on how to speed up an old laptop? I just did a disk cleanup last year and don’t have much installed on it not sure why it’s so slow

NLT

Please use the 'Full game' and not the update only. Your save files from .00072 will not work anymore.

NLT

No problem. I will make sure it gets patched. I simply need to do a check for image loading before I proceed to animation. I should have thought of that before

Nick

It’s a really old computer yes but at the moment it’s all I have. I played ToN and TGO games on my android phone.

NLT

I think i identified the issue. it's trying to animate the page before it has time to load. Are you by chance on a computer with a very slow hard drive?

Nick

Right after I click the scroll from the main menu. It looks like an animation is about to start but then the error appears

NLT

At what point does the error appear. Is it as soon as you click on the scroll item, or do you see anything happen after you click the scroll but before the error message?

dzo

same for me. and just 1074 version. update not working and saves from 0172 too not reading..

Nick

I never had .00072 today was the first time downloading on PC and I’ve downloaded the full game twice is there a piece missing in the data folder that’s the reason for the error?

NLT

It could be from using the update files if you were upgrading from .00072. Try download the full game

Nick

Getting TypeError Cannot read property ‘data’ of undefined message when trying to craft book of knowledge. I can get through the rest of the game just not this part. I’ve downloaded the full game 2 separate times getting the same error. Is there a file missing in the download?

NLT

If you're upgrading from .00072 then yes. Otherwise, move the save folder from your old install into the new one

andresss23

HI! is it normal that i have start from the beginning?

JohnChoi1648

That worked. Just needed to remove it from the folder and just place the file in the Applications Folder. However, now I only have a black screen with music and no graphics LOL. Edit: never mind...just needed to click to get to menu :)

NLT

SotS does not have a launcher yet, but you can download the ZIPs from NLT-Media.net

Blackjack

Warum kann ich denn den LAuncher für SOS nicht laden?

NLT

Try moving only the "Game.app" file to the top level of the "Applications Folder"

JohnChoi1648

Nothing is working

NLT

Do you see any error? Can you describe what happens?

NLT

Try downloading the full game.

DeCongo

Simultaneously the game crashes

DeCongo

“TypeError” Cannot read property ‘[object Array]’ of undefined.

NLT

One thing you can try is make a totally new folder and put it there, instead of putting it in an existing folder.

NLT

Let me get with my Mac guy and see if he has a solution.

JohnChoi1648

I've moved it from Applications, to the desktop, to download...and nothing is working. Still shows the same error message: "Please move the Game.app to a different folder". Any advice?

NLT

It's a weird quirk of Mac. Just move the folder anywhere and it should work.

NLT

Copy the files from the update into the folder you installed the game previously. It seems that updating from .00072 is not working, so if you have .00072, you should probably download the full game just to be safe.

NLT

Try doing this... Go to where you installed the game and open package.json in Notepad. Look for the link that starts with "chromium-args" and change it to this... "chromium-args": "--force-color-profile=srgb --enable-webgl --ignore-gpu-blacklist", see if that helps.

JohnChoi1648

What folder does the MAC version need to be in? When I launch the game, it says to move the Game application to another folder

NLT

Does it give you an error if you start a new game? or only if you try and load a save file? Any save file from .00072 will no longer work on any version.

NLT

What are you seeing?

NLT

if you're updaing from .00072 you should download the full game. You might be missing files

Brugathor

im getting a lot of different errors at random times, the most common one - (Cannot read property '[object Array]' of undefined.

VNenthusiast

same error

DeCongo

Hi, anyone having issues with. Dialogue in beta v.01074?

Bk

I downloaded updates only but what’s next help please

Bjarne Tarkov

The Black Screen after NLT Logo persists for me, any clues yet why this could be? If you need further Information to resolve this ill happily provide what i can :)

Bk

Only 49 mb update 🥴

NLT

I think I have an idea to get it working for you. I will private message you in a moment.

Scott Guy

Oh, well I'm still getting the "Failed" notice about the graphics, so all I see is a black screen and the notice.

NLT

The update folder is from .00073 and up. Going forward it should always work.

NLT

The main menu there is 'New Game', 'Continue', and then 'Options'

NLT

When you first start the game there is

Xiij

EliMZ_SelfVariables.js wasn't in the update folder

Scott Guy

I'm sorry, but I can't find what you are talking about. I really am that stupid. I'll continue replaying the other games because I really do enjoy them. Maybe when I have to upgrade my computer, I'll be able to play this new one too. I do appreciate all your patience and help.

NLT

On the main menu, go to options and it's 3rd on the list. Just turn it to off

Scott Guy

Could I be so bold as to ask how to turn off the settings? Just where I would be able to find it.

NLT

All save files from version .00072 wont work anymore after the battle system rewrite. .00073 and up all use the same save files in the save folder. A lot has changed since the first release on the 2nd. Going forward it should always work.

Jirapong Pongsripracha

I'm not sure because when I load the save it comes up like this.

The Original Jdog

Awesome, thank you. Let me know if you need a tester with that...visual skill.

NLT

Do you remember the last thing you did before you saw that error?

NLT

I should be able to do that

Jirapong Pongsripracha

Type error cannot read property object array of undefined

The Original Jdog

Just loaded this and the battle system really needs a color-blind mode. I'll be pretty much useless in a battle as-is. Maybe symbology next to the arrows around the opposition?

NLT

My guess is that any AMD or Nvidia card made inthe last 10 years should do it fine. Any intel in the last 5 probbaly fine too. Otherwise you should turn the effects settings off, then you can get away with almost anything

Scott Guy

May I ask what would be the graphics card I need for the game? I have an all-in-one system, so I can't add a physical card to my computer. I'll have to figure out a way to get it.

Burkhardtrader

Thanks for the update.

NLT

Hopefully soon. We're still testing it. The way it works will be a lot different than before. We're trying to make it a lot faster and way more secure, so it's taking a bit of time.
