Being a DIK: Episode 9 (v0.9.1), Season 3

A10forthewin

surprised Riona is in the pics and not Zoey but I really really like Riona -- Girl order my liking -- Riona, Bella, Josy, Sage, Maya, Lily, Sally, Nicole, Quinn, Jill, Cathy, Jade, Bianca, Zoey, Nora, Tiffani, Heather, Elena, Gina, Mona?, Tara, Karen, Melanie, Clara, Tania, Kylie, Christie, Penny, Sara, Camila, Rose, Brandi, Sandy, Madam, Beth, Ashley, Arieth, and definitely last Becky

DrPinkCake

Sounds like you patched Season 1/2 with Season 3 - which this post tells you not to do as it will corrupt your persistent save file and game. If you patched it wrongly, you have to: 1. Re-download S1&2. 2. Re-download S3. 3. Keep them separate from each other and never merge folders. 4. You furthermore have to delete your persistent file in the being a dik folders located here: %appdata%/renpy To avoid this from happening in the future, read the install instructions more carefully and never merge S1&S2 with S3 data.

i keep getting an "uncaught exception occured" message whenever i try and view my renders. What am I doing wrong? does anyone know of a fix?

DrPinkCake

Yes, you can play Season 3 with Steam Season 2 saves that are made at the Export screen at the end of episode 8. Just make sure that you never put any Season 3 content in your Steam Season 1 & 2 folders. If you need a reference for how to import saves, check this image: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png

I'm a little confused by the FAQ, if I have the steam version will I be able to use the chapter 3 updates from the $10 tier with that version of the game?

i sometimes hate the fact this game is this good because all we can do is sit here and wait for the next episode

DrPinkCake

That error happens if the download fails somehow. Redownload the binary and unzip again.

Scott

Loving that new post on X. Lily looks awesome in that.

Jacek Wiśniewski

For now only thing I can think of is make more space on your SSD and try download the content from the other source. Also you could try unziping it using different program or newer version

Christopher Tiemann

Unable to filly unzip due to the following errors: BeingADIK-0.9.1-pc\BeingADIK-0.9.1-pc\game\movies_ep9.rpa - There is an error while writing BeingADIK-0.9.1-pc\BeingADIK-0.9.1-pc\game\ep9_images.rpa - There is an error while writing Any suggestions appreciated!

DrPinkCake

No, English is the only supported language.

Kudlak

Check under membership, there is link...?

do we have a guide for this episode

troian

How can I put the game in spanish? There is a way to do it or not...?

Julia Valentine

whats the easiest way to play the game for season 3 windows help!

Majah Flavah

On the one hand, I'm super pissed that Episode 9 dropped because I'm visiting England with only an Android tablet. On the other hand, most of the bugs will be worked out by the time I get home and start playing. Cup half full I suppose. :)

DrPinkCake

It's not an Android game.

Brian Thompson

I want it on android! APK me

DrPinkCake

It's the first choice you make in Episode 1. You cannot change at a later point as stated.

Hi. I can't find the option for activating mini-games

Samuel

sup brother could you find any solution? i'm having the same problem i just suscribe so i could play the season 3 but it cannot find my files

Scott

The hearts in her eyes.

Scott

She is addicting.

Scott

I've only turned down the chance, once, glad I did. Got to see something new. I will go back to knocking him out again.

i cant play Chik because of her ... <3

Trey McLemore

Kinda makes sense. All dating sim-style VNs should have a route where you romance the villainess. And she is def the villainess.

Michael John Barnes

Looks like Quinn has been upgraded to main girl. She's got a profile in the title now

Michael John Barnes

Yeah, that scene is perfect and made me love Josy even more... but Ima still kick that punks ass.

the kick to the balls? good times

Scott

I still found a new scene, after two years. LMAO. DPC, you are the KIng! I never passed on the chance to fight Tommy. Well, until now. Love it.

SirBlack

Interlude is included in this post's full game link, for S1+2 you can check out the "Release" posts at the top, the one from Nov 19 2021 has the links.

SobrietyTest#6516

i had to get a new PC and I no longer have my saves from seasons 1 and 2, is there plans for a path builder for season 3 so we can play it without having to import a save? or if someone could point me in the direction of a good link for redownloading seasons 1,2, and the interlude, I will more than happily start from scratch.

A10forthewin

saves are found in the original game folder in games folder - the second location can be found in the AppData/Roaming/RenPy/BeingaDIK (careful though there might be two different folders one for save seasons 1&2 and the other for Season 3)

How do I get rid of the saves? I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and my saves are still there

DrPinkCake

Illegal mods taint your game and causes crashes, you need fresh install and fresh saves imported to Season 3.

DrPinkCake

Hi! There is a setting for color blindness in your game already. Just click the Show Tile Numbers so it says Yes, and you can play with digits.

I was able to download the game and play through the interlude, but at the beginning of Ep 9 my app crashes, anyone know why?

Scott

DPC's patreon, open 24/7 most days, lmao.

Loftusia

Any chance in future episodes to make the green and yellow tiles slightly more defines in the tile game. I'm color blind for those colors and it makes it crazy hard

Paladin93230

You import them when inside the menu for season three.

does anyone know how to transfer your saves from steam? very excited to play season 3

Oscar Davies

A better response is why are you trying to play season 3 before 1 and 2?

Scott

I am between Josy, Maya, and Jill, on a date with Jill, but in Josy and Maya's relationship. I'm loving this playthrough.

Jon

you need to play to episode 8 which is the end of s2 then you can use that save to play episode 9

jojojuice

so i havent played season 1 or 2 but downloaded 3, it seems it wont let me play unless i have a saved game?

Paladin93230

You can't. The Steam version is Season One and Two ONLY. You must keep the install/folders separate. You put the Patreon Interlude and Ep. 9 into its own folder. You can then import Season 2 Static (Final) Saves from Steam into the Patreon version by selecting "Import" and then changing the source of the save files to Steam.

DrPinkCake

See this image to load your saves from Steam. But note that you cannot merge the game with Steam as the post says. That would corrupt your saves. Treat Season 3 as a separate game and you won't face any issues. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png

DrPinkCake

Keep everything you download from here in separate folders. You can have a root folder named BeingADIK and put different zip files in it, and different folders of game versions too e.g v0.9.1 and v0.10.0 can be in that same folder. Just go by the rule of thumb to never merge full downloads unless you are patching your game and know how to patch, and you will be good. Save files always transfer automatically if you're playing on the same PC every time. So, don't move them.

Razpy von Baddy

Well, that'll either be your Current Saves or when the new Episode is out, you'll pick from a save of the girls of your choosing. Does this at the end of Ep 9 and end of Season 2 Other than that, I dare say "Take notes"

hi, i am playing this game on steam. How do I open episode 9 on steam? Can you help me?

Wise

I've finished episode 9, how do I keep an archive for future episodes?

Loko

Hi. New to Patreon here. Are these episodes coming to Steam anytime soon?

DrPinkCake

Are you talking about the haunted mansion event? If you press the 'h' key you will hide the flashlight and should be able to see the key. The black bars cannot overlap this area. Try playing fullscreen/windowed and see if it helps you click the key. It's in the upper middle part of the screen.

Skippy

Anyway to remove black bars at the top its stopping me from collecting a key

DrPinkCake

PC or mac? PC: Unzip. Enter new folder. Launch .exe file. Make sure you downloaded full version. Mac: follow the instructions in the zip file

PSW Tv

how do i install episode 9 having trouble

Scott

It would be cool to see Cathy come back for a little fling. Nora looks like a keeper too. I'm thinking she will be around more in upcoming episodes.

Salo vapes

Hey! i can really not find my saves after changing my drives and pc! is it possible to get a save from here so i can ålay s3?

Does it work on the steam deck? I got it to launch but i cant import my end of season 2 saves.

DrPinkCake

Yes. But don't put it in the Steam folder. You can use your Steam saves if you check the picture I posted above.

DrPinkCake

am i able to download this for my steam games

La-bulle

If you save your end game season 2 on steam, u have to click on import > click to change source (upper right) and your saved game will appear.

Travolta

Hallo i just have finished season 1 and 2 i saved the game but i dont see the save at season 3 its all empty any one knows how should how start season 3?do i have to copy any saves or anything like that?

Bamfzilla

Was your previous save a patreon version, or steam/gog?

DrPinkCake

To start a new game you use Season 1 and 2 binary: Being A DIK v0.8.3: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58768095

I am not sure this was asked, but is it normal I cannot start a new game in Season 3 under this current version? I only see the options for import and continue. THANKS!

La-bulle

I have a lot of fun playing your game, which far surpasses what is done in this area, at least for those I have played. In addition to the scenario, the characters, the multiple routes built with coherence, while browsing the music I realized that some were yours... That makes you a genius, I think. I am now really curious to know how you work. Congratulations, I am now looking forward to the next episode !

Draxl

hey happySmoke123 I'm having the same problem, as it turns out for some reason my discord account has access to 18+ servers blocked and you have to submit a request to them directly to get it unblocked. if you go to the Discord page and click on support search for Age-restricted channels and content and it will tell you what you have to do. hope this helps!

I'm having trouble with season 3, the game closes when I start to play episode 9, does anyone knows why?

happySmoke123

Guys can someone please help me? I am unable to accept invite to the Discord for some reason..I keep clicking the link and it is simply not allowing me to accept the invite when prompted.

Scott

I had to do it. I wiped ep1-9. I'm finding all kinds of things again. Going very slow with the inability to skip, but, my patience is being tested. I'm trying to do all nine episodes in one sitting. I'm kind of alreay pretty f'ed up. I'm gonna keep going. You see stuff you only see on the first playthrough. Details.

GeneralCuiJM

The saliva loops with the blowjobs in this series are a nice new touch. Hope to see them in the actual story. Not much can beat a really wet BJ.

AfterLife

So far every tune and song start to play at the right time. Its just... fitting.

Jamie Yohn

I think it still only does 5 gb daily limit but it won't tell you that until you hit the 5 gb limit

Marokelo

I have a scripting problem and I can't view the rewards without an error in version 8.3. I have deleted all the data, downloaded it again, and deleted everything from the AppData, but it didn't help.

Emissary Heralds

Anyone else have issues with the Skip function in episode 9? I did one play through already but doesn't seem to work on my subsequent plays.

Scott

Very well said about how DPC places the music just right. I have mentioned that in the past. I totally agree with "Medicate me" love that song. All the piano parts in the first two seasons. In Ep. 9 I agree with "Welcome to the Carnival" love it. The three rap songs fit perfectly too. When Tommy hits the stage for the drinking competition. It's all perfectly placed.

C3NTUR10N

ya i can see that pov, i guess i have played ep1-8 so so so so many times the original theme on load screen is just baked, in with Maya looking back at me - Carnival definitely is the anthem for Halloween Party, again DPC just knocks it out of the park...looking forward to seeing what song will linked to Rio...

AfterLife

'DPC has an uncanny ability to place music with emotional weight at the right scene.' 100% agree. The above mentioned 'Welcome to the carnival' means the new Main Menu theme to me, but I also really like the one plays when the DIKs arrive to the dorm bash or whenever the Medicate Me by The Night starts to play I have to stop and just listen to it.

C3NTUR10N

tbh there isn't just one for me. There are however songs that I relate to certain girls in BaD..like jojo sitting in mc lap outside sorority party (also josy dance scene at dorm party), quinn at DIK house after getting mugged, or piano builds to crescendo in rainstorm on date with Jill. DPC has an uncanny ability to place music with emotional weight at the right scene. Whenever I hear a song used in BaD in another avn its actually off-putting as many devs just use the music assets as background filler and it feels so thin and out of place...

Salomon

Come by Diverse Musid, or Run Run Runnin

AfterLife

A few days ago I started to play EP9 with some unfinished saves and I just realized that 'Bex X - Welcome to the carnival' became a somewhat main theme song for me regarding the game. Do you guys have a song that you consider 'main theme song' for Being a DIK? If yes which one?

Aaron D

Jesus, Dr. Pinkcake youre a fuckin genious. Please let me come understudy off you. Ill sleep in the yard. Give you all my money and weed. You are the Motzart of this genre.

C3NTUR10N

Right?! DPC is the best

Scott

I couldn't wait any longer. Had to do the Bella run. Felt like a kid some times, felt like it was perfect others. 18yr. old Bella is HOT! Good stuff. Exactly 3 hours for that play through.

Scott

Mediafire is free. Download the .zip, double click, save somewhere you will remember, go in and double click the .exe file to start the game. All previous saves should be ready for import. Those left from the end of ep8. If you're just starting out. ep1-8. Have fun!

TheRoyalOdyssey

Can somebody please help me. I'm trying to decide which download i need to use, Mediafire, PIXELDRAIN, or GDRIVE. I dont really now what to do or which one is right for me. I would appreciate some advice greatly.

DrPinkCake

DM

Can someone help me just play the game from the start? im terrible with computers for the most part and have not a clue how to get started

Scott

O.k. my discussion earlier in the thread made me do some really new stuff this time. I gotta say, Nora, wtf. She is hot and I hope we get a clone of her. I have to see how it works out in ep9 with her. Very nice. How long have I had this game? I'm still finding new things to do. Oh, and I finally got the Santa interaction. LOL. Nice DPC.

NecromancerB

There are one or two un-eventuallities. But for the size of DPC's game I think nothing of it. Would love a peek at his flow chart or the code file. . .LOL

Rellik6801

i even ran a full run till end of 9 only jill still got zo saying i hear alot about your dik statement?

Rellik6801

indeed trying think it though, unless there is another {pick your path} option, Either be a non-player ergo {blue balled} the whole game or others nice maybe? found the girls talk to each other as in real life. so......

ROMEO

Lukasz, all the best

ROMEO

Dr PinkCake is in the receiving end of the story, because they offered a visual novel, and crafted totally meaningful and sensational perspectives. All the best.

elmonarste

At the end of season 2 I've thought that Zoey have no chance to fight for MC. But Dr PinkCake with Interlude made smth magic - she is real and she is great. Awesome job. Bet writing I've seen in the game for years!!!!

Lethallee61

Episode 9 showed once again why BaDIK is head and shoulders above any other Adult VN out there - the quality of the characterization simply raises this game to another level. Each character arc is fully detailed and believable, from the main characters to every minor side character. You play every Chapter of this game multiple times so you can interact with everyone, make better (or worse) choices for your MC and pick up on all the little nuances hidden within the story. Dr PinkCake has created characters that you genuinely care about, that will make you laugh, cry and absolutely break your heart. Then, when you finally think you've chosen the path you want to follow, Zoey comes back.....

Scott

Amen.

Scott

Oh, I get it. I usually avoid that option when playing, lol. What I meant was I had two different playthroughs in ep. 9 where I ended the night in an uneventful manner. I can't remember details, however, I wasn't following the walkthrough at the time. But that makes sense as to why I haven't gotten Santa. I've tried all the others.

C3NTUR10N

tip: swype up on a certain unattractive option earlier in the game to trigger. Got about 30 runs in and only ran into it a few times...Santa only popped cause i was rerunning midgame saves as a completionist. hey just curious, what did you mean by 'no action'?

Scott

Damn, I've played through others several times, Sage, Maya and Josy and still have yet to get the opportunity once. Maybe I missed it a couple times due to forgetting to do it but still have not seen it.

C3NTUR10N

Yes its kinda funny, but has potential to be slight neg depending on what path you are on

Not gonna lie, the low action here was not such a big deal. Personally the thing I love most about this game. Is that it comes with a sound story, there is a lot to the game. The detail and dialog is more rounded and has some deep focus into it. Plus mini games are legit fun to play. It's a good simulation. I strongly dislike the games where it's all huge tits and ass, with endless mindless sex. Real women don't have triple x sized breasts, if they do its 1 out of a rather huge number of women. They always end up needing breast surgery. Other games compared to being a dik are trash as they have no substance to them, and all the women are typically the same.

Serring

Good to see a fellow quinn fan :).... and yeah cant wait for some new scenes with quinn...wondering about when they go out for "date" :D

Esteban11

dude we got the same interest! I'm looking forward to more scenes with quinn

Scott

Well that ending was a bummer. No action? Who'd a thought. Has anyone had an interaction with Santa? I don't want to know how or why I'm just curious. I see it in the play through but have yet to get an opportunity to.

Hey, first, thanks for the game, i love it. I have a problem, in season 3 it starts crashing in a single dialogue line. I don't say which just in case is a spoiler, but is the first conversation of the episode between 2 of the DIK's. I redownloaded the full game from this link and keeps happening, anyone had the same issue? I'd thank some help. <3

Scott

It's worth every penny.

Scott

The 2D animations are amazing in this game.

DrPinkCake

It's not an Android game. Clearly stated on my front page.

DrPinkCake

Don't use illegal mods and the game works fine. You'll have to wipe your saves.

I haven't been able to download it for Android!

Chris M.

Victor, I (personally) bought S1&2 and the guides on GOG but it's also on Steam. Around $40 total if I remember correctly. Just search for Being a Dik. Happy Gaming!!!

I love this game and its story, how can I buy season 1 and 2, only by subscription (I'm an ESO level)? I don't have much money =(

My game keeps crashing during Tommy's and Jacob's conversation starting episode 9. Any help on how to fix it? There is no log, game just exits out without error.

DrPinkCake

Google images for "neural network" and it would sum up the spreadsheets. >_<

DrPinkCake

1. Download full game above. 2. Extract zip file 3. Launch BeingADIK.exe 4. From main menu choose Import and select your save transfer file from Season 2 ending. If you're playing Steam/GOG before Season 3, you can click at the top to change the save file source accordingly.

DrPinkCake

No

Stupid question, how do I launch interlude and and season 3? I have the download but no way to launch it?

Kudlak

Doc you bastard 😂🤣 it looks more and more that I will need to re-replay Jill and Bell routes 🤣 to avoid hurting/breaking up with JM...

Serring

The Doc has taken care of so many variables, it surprises me every time. I have done others playthrough many times because quinn ftw :D, and today i did it again, but made sure the mc didn't hook up with anyone at the party. I was so amazed that quinn's dialogue changes after that. btw what a great final scene at quinn's place. Really showed how much work was put into that. Clearly my 2nd fav scene after the weed rooftop scene early in season 1 :D

Scott

I did a playthrough with Josy and Maya last night. I was weighted more toward Maya during it. It was amazing! A lot of fun. Maya stole the show. I look forward to doing it again and leaning more toward Josy. DPC, your branching is amazing. Every branch is so fresh and different. I can only imagine what that spreadsheet looks like with all the variables and choices. You are the best. So much entertainment in one episode. Unbelievable.

Is there a android version ?

Mattiaquila

Hi! i downloaded de season 3 version 0.9.1-mac but when i click on the launcher ut says that i can't open the app. Someone can help me?

how to transfer saves from the old version to the new one on a Mac? thanks a lot! kind regards

Esteban11

same here, had a hard time refusing with other girls because of her. looking forward for future scenes with quinn.

Esteban11

Just wanna say that I've played the game countless times just so I could end up with each main girls and others. The story was so good. Keep it up doc!!

Esteban11

you need to subscribe for at least $25/month so you can download season 1 and 2 or buy it on steam. After Season 2 you can import your game in Episode 9 which you can also download here.

Hi there can someone help me? I have downloaded season 3 but I can’t play it as I haven’t played season 2 . How can I download season 1 and 2 ? Thanks

I've had the same problem - deleted and reinstalled v0.8.3, played through from the start without modding, exported the new, 'clean' save to v0.9.1 but it keeps crashing right at the beginning of ep 9.

Started playing for the adult content but staying for the emotional roller coaster

Scott

The more I play episode 9 the more I like it. Love the party, the character interactions. Tommy has made me laugh more than once. The music has grown on me as well. It always fits with the scene. Dare I say that I am being won over by Zoey as well? In real life I'm not a huge fan of lots of tattoos on women, especially in some of the places she has them but the vibe I get from her character in ep9 has started to win me over. Only making it harder to choose among all the girls in this game. That is one of my all-time favorite things about BaD. It makes it hard to choose. The great thing is I can just play again and choose someone else. Too bad life wasn't more like BaD! LOL.

DrPinkCake

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png Yes

Rookie question: Is it possible to continue season 3 from my season 2 gameplay i had on steam? If yes, can someone explain how or if it's been explained before link me?

Victor Miranda

Hello, I downloaded Ser DIK - v0.9.0. but when I see the gallery it is generating an error, could you help me. Thanks!

EHelström

I have to say that I absolutely love the party planner minigame! I am excited to see more in future episodes!

Is it possible to import Interlude save files from a PC to a Mac?

NecromancerB

Loved the party and all the paths...keep up the great work! Can't wait to spend more time with Rio. . .

Man, what a ride this game has been. I must have played this game from scratch 5 times already. I came for adult content, but I stay for the gripping story and the various branches.

OK, thanks!!

Thank you for answering my question. In that case, live long and prosper!

DrPinkCake

No, it would die with me. It's of course not something I wish, but that's the reality of it.

PJ Bond

Yes. RIP Palmer

loved this ep! but i feel like there was too much free roam for me. but then again, im the kind of person that likes to read and go along with the story. super excited for future updates!

lkkkkk

wth kinda question that bruh hahaha

Question: Knock on wood, but do you have any contingencies in place for the game should you meet an untimely demise (ex. designating someone to finish the story or tell the player base how it would've ended)? I know it can be a morbid question to ponder, but I really do want to see your vision for the game fulfilled. There have been a lot of shows and books that are discontinued because the writer passed away.

Shadow

Yep, unless someone gives you their saves (which I don't recommend for security reasons) you'll have to start from the beginning, however you can enable skips for previous dialogue so you can just make the choices fairly quickly

so, how do I restart the game? Scroll back and download earlier episodes? Do I start with E1?

Full game, DO NOT connect patches with you steam files, you will just mess up everything, i learned that the hard way.. 😂

so if i have episode 8 already should i download patch or full game link ?

Macky Zee

Appreciate it, but na I’ve done that and still nothing. Gonna keep trying to find a solution and if push comes to shove I can always just replay the whole game on a pc 👌🏼

DrPinkCake

No, you need saves from S2 to start S3.

Jason P

Did you click the upper right? The default is to look for the patreon game save. If you click that upper right, it'll switch to the steam deck saves. If that's not working then I have nothing, but I thought I'd suggest in case you missed it.

The computer I was playing S2 on died. I have just downloaded and installed v 0.9.1 on a new computer (Mac mini M1, OS 13.1). Is there any way to start a new game (no saves imported) in v 0.9.1?

Macky Zee

Yeah man, I’ve saved it multiple times to transfer and it still doesn’t show anything. I reckon it must be an issue with the steam deck, my theory is the season 3 game is trying to find my save by looking for the ‘ C:/Users\username\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\BeingaDIK’ folder, but because that folder doesn’t exist on the deck it assumes I don’t have any saves (on the deck everything just saves into the normal steamapps/common section).I guess I’ll just have to wait till the full season 3 comes out on steam…no worries brother, thanks for trying to help. 10/10 this game is a masterpiece and I have nothing but love for you for making it 🤙🏻

DrPinkCake

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png Make sure you did that first ^

Macky Zee

Quick question, Is there an option on the season 3 game to change which file directory the ‘import’ button looks through to find my season 2 saves? I’m running the game on steam deck and even though I’ve already finished season 2 and transferred my episode 8 conclusion, season 3 can’t find any saves at all. I believe it may be because the game is automatically searching for the appdata folder which the steam deck doesn’t have…?

thanks for the info bro, you saved my day…🙏👍

Selyek

YouTube the problem - this fixed it for me.How to fix 'This application can't be opened' error on Mac

Anthony Bayless

Josy and Jill, are my main one and two. Maya moved, into my top three right along with Nicole. Replaying my Josy and Maya path from Season 1, I unlocked a scene with the D*** of all D**** Tibalt. Had his dad and mom in the scene at the mansion I never saw before when I played before, maybe I missed it. I never was into Sage but she has moved into my top 5 also after playing for as long as I have. I'm still a Jill simp.

Cole Mitchell

thanks for giving us different options other than mega

Jason P

Jill/Josy? that would be my dream couple or even throuple although I suspect that's not what you're referring to, but I got a little hopeful :). I went the Josy/Maya path because Josy all the way for me. Sage is hot and can be sweet, but not really able to be open about relationships and the dik path is fun but i'm really more neutral/chik in my play style. I hate that the game seems to read that as submissive or lesser in bed though. The sex scene with bella... had me 180 on her. she was already cold and then wtf! i can't imagine a continued path with her to be worth it for me as she's very opposite of my own personality. She would have been flipped on her ass with me in charge or i'd have been out the door (despite me being "chik"). so, i probably won't see her path further. I do hope she finds joy though. her fierce passion for jill is awesome and I respect that.

Hoo I'll check if that’s the problem, thank you bro…

Targonis

You may need to go to system preferences and make sure security isn't stopping it from running. Apple likes to block things that are not downloaded from the App Store.

No yet bro, I couldn’t do it again cause I was busy, but I’ll try to do it again tomorrow and see what happens…

FulksMaester

Did you end up solving the issue? I'm getting "The application can’t be opened.". Mac is up to date so unsure if there's anything i'm missing

The steps I provided works on any macOS. Unless you provide more information where it goes wrong for you, I can't help you.

Hoo I thought it was only Mac…

Big A

Mac updates all drivers updated?

Ok brother, I tried to do it but it didn't work, I don't know if I did it wrong but it didn't work, I had the same problem, you can't update the game or something like you used to do it before, without having to do anything just download the game and start playing or I don't know.....

DrPinkCake

You need to read the installation instructions for mac. It won't start if you just try to run it. Read the documentation provided (you can download it from the attachments above). Do the installation steps and let me know if a step fails.

No the game is completely downloaded but it does not open when you try to play it...

DrPinkCake

Which step of the installation instruction doesn't work?

Excuse me family, someone plays Being a Dik on mac, to help me with a little problem, the problem is that I can download the game but when I try to open it and try to play it gives me a problem and it says that it cannot be open, does anyone know why????

DrPinkCake

YOU MODDED THE GAME. DELETE ALL SAVES TO FIX IT.

FutureTrix

IT CRASHES AT THE START

L0ki

I tried to do that in one night. Man....even skipping it's time consuming. End result will be worth it.

Scott

I'm trying to blow through the first eight episodes so I can start ep 9 just the way I want to.

Sir Vladimeer

I was wondering how long it was going to take the characters to notice the surveillance van parked outside their house?

Anthony Bayless

No, DPC just did a really good job with the hairstyle for Josy for the Halloween party in my opinion. Josy looks cute/pretty in it. Whichever you'd prefer. I cannot wait for the next episode. I'm dying to see the reaction to Rusty to Jill being MC's girlfriend and Tommy's reaction to MC having sex with Josy or Maya being with Josy half naked. I'm not sure. I'm just looking forward to the next episode.

Ryu123

can any one tell me how to unlock the last scene in ch 3 gallery

S W

Hello, are you saying there is a Jill and Josy path, or just that their paths are equaly good?

Teufelhunde DJI

There are multiple story lines and sometimes even the smallest change in choices can change the story. Have fun with it.

Marco Yu

Played from the start to enjoy jojo and maya line again. Can't wait to see the next episode!!!

Flover

That is exactly it.

Thomas J

I googled it and found the damn folder by putting this in my search bar in C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\BeingaDIK-1535311494

Hm. I havent modded this version or even v.8. EDIT: I checked back and it seems I do have a mod but its from a very early version. Is it possible for a mod from that far back is causing the issues now? I suppose it would based on your comments. Apologies, I did not mean to waste your time, I truly didnt believe I had a modded save file

Stefano Barbieri

I played for 3 hours and I finished it. I guess this update is meant just to be re-played with different storylines...

DrPinkCake

The appdata folder is hidden by default. You must delete the file in there too or it won't have any effect. Open a folder and type %appdata% in the search bar to reach that folder immediately. Then find RenPy/BeingADIK folder to delete the save

DrPinkCake

Happy you liked it!

DrPinkCake

I investigated this issue with another player today. It was a mod issue, wipe saves and start fresh to fix it. Mods waste my time and, as you have seen with this issue, wastes your time too.

Sorry yall. Got busy with holiday stuff. No Im not sure exactly what is causing it. I have separate save files for the different routes, so not sure why this is occurring. I have not modified the game in any way to my knowledge.

Yeah, i have. It involves deleting the saved files.

Furrow

Still had no luck with the Discord, but found the scenes I was missing with a little trial and error.

Thomas J

The 0.9.1 Patreon version on PC. I delete the persistent file in the game 'saves' folder but when I reload the game all my saves are still there. I am playing via an E Drive so there is no Appdata folder I can see. Here is the traceback log. I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Thomas J

I am having the same issue, have you managed to sort it yet?

DrPinkCake

Are you playing version 0.9.1 or v0.9.0. You can likely fix this by deleting your persistent file at these two locations: 1. In your "game" folder 2. In C:/users/your name/AppData/Roaming/RenPy/Being A DIK

Thomas J

I haven't used mods with any versions. This new Season 3 Ep 9 no matter how many times I unzip the file once I load my game and try look at my 2D or Mixed Art rewards it instantly does the Exception Occured and I have to click rollback, Ignore or Quit if it won't rollback?

Jay, did you ever figure out the issue?

DrPinkCake

Same question to you then too, Jelle.

DrPinkCake

Don't use mods with my game and you won't experience bugs and crashes.

Thomas J

I get a glitch and have to click rollback or quit when I open the 2D Art in the rewards app.

I am having the same issue.

Anthony Bayless

I was so happy when this update was released. I of course did the Jill path first and Josy and Maya. Those have been my top three until I did this. Bella moved into my top 3. It became Jill/Josy as my Number 1 and Maya and Bella as my two and three and Sage moved to my top four. Josy's hair looks really amazing in this update. You did a really good job on Josy on this update.

DrPinkCake

Did you modify your game somehow? This is the only report of its kind I've heard about and I find it implausible.

Think I encountered an interesting bug? It is showing scenes for both the Bella and Jill routes, regardless of playthrough that was imported. Im not oppose to seeing both, but its definitely confusing trying to follow the story. Edit to add: confirmed bug and its causing a loop. Unable to progress forward

FINALLY!!!!!!

DrPinkCake

Make sure the category is Relaxing music. That's where it's listed

Matthew

so hyped for whats to come! this episode was killer

IronGiant97

Fantastic Episode! Has to be one of the best VNs out there right now. Thanks Doc

S W

ah, ok... I don't see it on the list in music. at least I'm not crazy because I was like "how could I miss that"?

S W

THANKS!

Nice :)

DrPinkCake

Kensington Studios - Run to you

DrPinkCake

Yes

DrPinkCake

The issue lies in the persistent file. What I would do is delete it from these locations: 1. In your "game" folder 2. In C:/users/your name/AppData/Roaming/RenPy/BeingaDIKSeason3-Patreon-1535311494

S W

do have a music question, anyone know the soft song that goes something like "plane, trains, and cars"? kinda a crosby stills and nash vibe. I have listened through the music list and obviously missed it, but don't have the time to go through again

S W

Have played a few VN’s and just have to say, Season 1 and 2 are just incredible. The writing, the way the music sets the mood, the art, the fun minigames… it is shocking, honestly. Better than most TV shows. Can’t wait to start Episode 9.

Justin Doherty

if i download the full game, will my previous saves move over? (from interlude patch)

=Max=

Merry Christmas

Teufelhunde DJI

Well, I found an even easier way. I just went ahead and pulled all of Being A DIK 3 from the older laptop and transferred it to the new one. Everything appears to be operating properly. Thanks for the help.

Gabriel

I’ve been having problems with it as well but just the 2D art. DPC I don’t have any mods as I’m not a gamer on pc and have no idea how to do that. I was thinking it was the file I used to download it it didn’t work the first time I had to delete and uncompress the files again.

DrPinkCake

The game works fine unless you've used illegal mods with it in the past. Delete saves to fix.

Has anyone had any errors when trying to access the 2d art and mixed rewards? I get an exception has occurred. Other than that, game works fine.

Teufelhunde DJI

Understood. Thanks. I use an external hard drive to back a lot of things up and will probably use it to transfer that folder, which would probably be the most expedient way to do it.

DrPinkCake

Please, use the Discord server if you want to chat about the update. Don't spoil it for people downloading by posting spoilers here.

My Name is Nobody

Thanks for another amazing episode Doc like just wow U just keep raising the bar higher and higher every release keep up the great work buddy 🥳🥳🥳 Merry Christmas

DrPinkCake

I would just copy and paste this folder from old to new PC: %AppData%/RenPy

Teufelhunde DJI

DPC, quick question. My old laptop is having issues so I bought a new one. I have been able to download Season 1 and 2 from Steam and it has all my saves. Should I try and transfer the Interlude and BaD files from my old laptop or would it be better to just download the Interlude and Episode 9 and transfer just the saves? If so, what would be the best way to accomplish that. Bear in mind that I am still running 9.0 and not 0.9.1

DrPinkCake

Mods tainted your saves. Wipe saves, restart. Don't use illegal mods.

Rome

Love the ending with quinn. She is and will always be my favorite. cant wait for her to finally admit her true feelings. now thats a character arc

game crashes a few dialogues in, log states- Could not open 'cache/shaders.txt':

Nordwolf

You definitely need seasons 1 and 2 as many choices matter and the story is continued. Would not make any sense to play season 3 without the prior ones. Get it. It's worth the money. Skip a few beers or cappuccinos or whatever in the next weeks and that's it.

Nordwolf

Finally found all scenes and renders. Great job, DPC. By the way, does anyone else think, Jill looks most adorable when upset or sad or is it just me?

Justin Richardsn

yeah you get to wait a week or 2 for it to fall to a lower tier and I am not sure you need 1-8, I thought he said can be played as a stand-alone game

JRoul77

Well this sucks. Bought a membership so I could download the game, but can't play it unless I buy a higher tier and download episodes 1-8

Furrow

Have been doing all that, and all I get is an error that says "Unable to accept invite" - it's possible my account is set up without an age, I guess - but there's no reason I should be age restricted in any way - I'm still drinking coffee this morning so can't even seem to find where age info would be if that's the problem, lol. It's not a huge deal - I'll manage or wait for the guide, though I hate the idea of using the guide.

https://mega.nz/file/WHpyjQDB#-eUMT7Qwn6B5CWvQWjWvxY-oKiFWZLberqLx-PmTvXY Download this file and put it in "game" folder. Yours is corrupted.

Furrow

Yeah, same - I've played through all my saves and still missing 2 scenes. Racking my brain trying to figure out what they might be, and not having any luck getting joined to the Discord, unfortunately. Ah well - just means more plays :D

Teufelhunde DJI

So far I've gone through all of the options - Jill, Bella, Josy/Maya, Sage, and Others (in that order) and I see a lot of potential conflicts based upon choices. Each story is taking on a life of its own. I'm not exactly sure how MC's tool didn't fall off during the Others line. The music is outstanding (don't know where you find the time to select it). There are still three scenes and a whole bunch of renders that I haven't unlocked, but will definitely invest more time in reruns. DPC, you are definitely the King of AVNs. Excellent work.

Jayse

missing episode 5 image file, when skipping the recap from ep4, screen is all black

Best party ever

Cherry Bomb

Those 10 are all with its Jill doing well at the recital (as a Chick and a DIK). I love her character so much I couldn't see her failing. But yes I know there are far more than 10. I just loved how so many branched off at the end. It about drove me crazy wondering what Sage was so mad about at the end of 8. Now there are 10 of those endings to wonder about and write in my own head wishing and wondering what will happen next. If the good doctor is listening please allow a solo path to Josey.…*Crosses my fingers*

Gabriel

Happened to me I deleted the uncompressed folder and unzipped it again worked fine after. Except my 2D art is messing up on me

Ish My Ale

It might just be me, but I think there's a problem with the Mediafire download. When I tried it, it downloaded fine but the application wouldn't start. It worked with pixeldrain though.

Beautiful Bro

Absolutely fantastic! I'd say I can't wait for the next installment but I absolutely can because it's totally worth it.

DrPinkCake

You're likely not changing to the correct directory. cd ~/Downloads cd ./BeingADIK-0.9.0-mac chmod -R +x ./BeingADIK.app/*

Unable to open the app, is this compatible with the new Mac iOS Ventura update? Have tried the steps in the installation guide

Gabriel

Doesn’t seem to matter but mega will download part and then ask for a paid membership to finish the install or you wait x amount of time for it to finish (mine said 5hrs) I went with mediafile

haven't downloaded the files before (previously used steam exclusively). so just curious what is the recommended of MEGA, Mediafire, GOFILE or PIXELDRAIN? Or if it really matters at all.

QL2040

This update is blowing my mind. So amazing!

Nordwolf

10 is for beginners ;-) You can get so many variations WITHIN one branch by playing differently and taking different choices (from the very beginning of the game). You would be surprised, how some of those choices are coming back to you.

DrPinkCake

No. But you can Import Steam or GOG saves to the Patreon version.

Gritty1983

i dont know if you will see this or not DPC but great job on the episode! Thank you so much for all your hard work. I hope you and your family have a great Christmas and enjoy the holiday season! :)

Gabriel

I get what you mean I’ve seen them with my play thru gahh it’s gonna be good

That was a awesome episode…I saw so many new changes and were very pleased to have those minor effects show up and make a big in game. It was good to continue the story. Awesomeness

Does the update work with the Steam version?

Cherry Bomb

My suggestion without spoiling anything is after you have done the main branches with the girls is to go on the others path and you will be surprised :-)

Gabriel

Fuck, 10 ways that’s awesome and a lot lol

Cherry Bomb

This episode was so much fun, great great work!! I have 10, yes 10 different ways to proceed to the next episode, that is nuts! But I have to ask, why so much free roam? It seems like one would end and another would begin without anything in between. The free roams were fun to do and trust me I know that a map of the house perfectly by now. I have been playing in nonstop practically. To say I have been looking forward to this release will be a huge understatement and it certainly delivered. Now that I have finished it and left with such cliffhangers and need to know what happens next!! Awesome job!

Gabriel

I may have missed the post about this but is anyone else having difficulty with the 2D art it’s bringing up a coded page

DrPinkCake

That's good to know. MEGA sometimes only lets you download 5 GB daily limit, that's why I put it.

Scott

I checked them out on FB. Looks like it's just one original member at this point in the band. The others are probably wanting something for the songs being used if I had to guess. But who knows. I had to laugh though, on their FB page people were getting on them hardcore for having DPC take their music out of the game, lmao. I love Amsterdam, Punk Rock Flu and All The Roads, etc.. It's a shame they don't realize the notoriety this amazing game gave to them. I wouldn't have even known who they were if not for this. I miss the songs but what are ya gonna do?

please delete this. fk you

in the post it says you need a paid account for MEGA but i can download anyways

Solrane

Aw man

DrPinkCake

FYI, that's what the header of this post says. Don't merge the game data. Treat Season 3 as a separate game.

I'm gonna spoil the whole story: Darth Vader is Luke's father. Oh wait, wrong story

Jonathan Hang

Wooooo! Played throughout the whole night, got maybe like 20-30 min of a nap (going to work atm). I finished 2 paths. Bella and Others (basically just a F everyone route. That's including playing Interlude twice. I didn't know you can skipped from the main menu. All my saves started at the beginning of Interlude, I didn't played the Interlude at all until yesterday). I still got 3 (possible even more paths now, depending on how ep 9 "others" paths branch out).

PickerPatron

Everything works perfect, the new music menu is great and we can finally see the game version on the main menu. For people who come from the GOG version and have errors I tell you how I installed it. Before: Folder "Being a DIK" and inside the game files (episodes 1-8) purchased on GOG. Now: Folder "Being a DIK" and inside I created two folders "Season 1-2" (where I moved all the old files) AND a new folder "Season 3" where I put the downloaded Interlude from here and episode 9 and the future ones. The only bad thing is that if you finish episode 8 you have to exit the game and open from the new ".exe" but even if it cuts the game experience it takes less than 20 seconds.

DrPinkCake

Did you save at the end of Episode 8 in the Save transfer screen? You need to Import a save to start. See this image: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png

Marco Yu

Sorry DIKS~~ Need some help here... Why I cannot locate my save from S2? Is this because my S2 asave version is 0.8.2?

DrPinkCake

Is that save from the Interlude? If you have a backup version of the Interlude, you can load that save from it and save at another part of the episode. The only spot that is 100% guaranteed to work is when you save at the end of every episode.

Hey everyone, quick question. I patched the game following the instructions in the patch folder. When I open the game, I see Version 0.9.1 in the bottom right hand corner. But when I try to load my save from April of this year I get an error that says the game couldn't find a place to stop rolling back. Is there anyway to fix this? Thank you

After losing the world cup final, This episode put a smile back on my face

Cryo Man

It's a shame, Amsterdam and Punk Rock Flu are my favourites and it was what i remember when i think about episode 1. Understandable that Dpc did what they had to do

Drunken bubble

10 seconds in and the animations feel like a tipple a title way to go DR

ThaBoxxGhost

i truly wish riona was a main girl, id swap out maya and josy for riona and quinn in a heartbeat

gkek

There was a whole dustup about this a while back, but basically despite their music being used legally and without violating any copyrights, they decided to ask for the immediate removal of their songs from the game. DPC honored their request.

Cryo Man

What happened to Amsterdam by the Friday Prophets? It was used in the opening? I was searching for it in the music app and it's not there

John Kim

Great update I really enjoyed it. One of the routes always make me feel like I really am the main character getting feelings for someone. Freat writing and animation, I am always so impressed that this is made by one person. Happy Holidays :)

ok thanks :)

DrPinkCake

You can read the top of this post for that answer. Very clearly in bold font.

thanks a lot :) but is it like 2 games then? or can I combine everything into one game?

DrPinkCake

Being A DIK v0.8.3: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58768095

hey, I have a quick question: i got myself the 25$ tier, but when I download the full game link here, i only have ep9 and interlude. how do I get seasons 1+2?

Love the song "Chill Study - A beautiful syndrome'

Despoinae

ditto the above. solid gold

Matt - ACB

Hey it's been a while, congrats doc on another release! For what it's worth, it's the only one I still play and am still excited about. Always been the best.

Thankyou for all your hard work Dr. !! cant wait to play it.

DrPinkCake

I don't usually do that, but I can post something on my Discord server later if you're interested.

DrPinkCake

You can fix it yourself by not using illegal mods in the first place. Delete your saves and start over. Don't bring that here as it wastes my time and ruins a lot for me and the community.

DrPinkCake

It's not an android game. Never was, never will be,

Awayoh

Hey Dr. Anychance we can get the music playlist for this Episode?

Could you please fix the beginning of the game Dr pink? my game is crashing in the start of the game as soon as jacob appear the entire game closes.

How can I download with an anroid?

Greg A Workman

Yea i already did my screw up lol. But not a big one i got them now and can start all over again so many routes to go.

Don’t know what changed, but downloaded the patch and the game runs now. Appreciate The work you and ur team have put in. Cheers

Paladin93230

I was a player from Steam. Couldn't wait for a chance to advance my saves. The interlude was a nice way of bringing Zoey back into the MC's life. After going through that and experiencing Ep. 9 I can't wait for what's next. Choices have even subtle impacts on the story as it goes forward. I love seeing the variations. Fictional characters that I love, like, or even loathe. That's good writing. As much as I love aspects of all the main women, Zoey is definitely a much deeper and more interesting character than I was anticipating. The music in this was so good too. I can't say enough about this game.

Nordwolf

Completed three main playthroughs now. The free roams are great and also how the story is integrated. The mansion feels really alive. I like this episode very, very much!

Nordwolf

Same here... Thanks for the hint :-D

alex

Loved it 😍 now just crying until the next episode comes out🥹

AfterLife

I think you have to get S1-S2 again.

I have also tried with the saves of the 0.8.1 update. And it still doesn't go past that point. I do not know what to do now

Is it only compatible with the 0.8.2 update? Thank you very much for answering

OMG I feel like an idiot XD for some reason I was thinking story meant it unlocks when you reach a certain dialogue point. I completely forgot to look for anything hiding in the background while the story plays out. Thanks for the reply, really appreciate it!

Re@page

Damn! This episode takes the Cake, Dr.! Just finished my 3rd playthrough and I'm still VERY entertained :) The graphics are awesome! The story is awesome! The new mini game is awesome! And the boobies are better than ever! THANK YOU DOC! Now get back to work! :D

Re@page

Read the note on the door ;)

tinyrock12

Are we getting Mona or Cathy back anytime soon?

DrPinkCake

After all eligible tiers have gotten access to the update. January is a safe bet.

Andrew Keith

I think you stated in a earlier post that the walkthrough for episode will be up in a couple months. Is that true?

BananaMan

Steam Saves are not compatible

I have to say Riona is my favorite part of this incredible game and i cant wait to see whats next. Great work as always DPC

Majah Flavah

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why DPC is the GOAT! Everything, just everything, from the music to the renders and animations are just miles beyond other adult games. And the depth and breadth of the story line is without equal. There are a lot of AVNs out there, a lot of them are good, a few of them are great, but Being a DIK is on the top of them all.

I have the same problem as this friend, the game does not advance at the same point. I have started the game again on "steam" from the beginning up to and including chapter 8, but even so, it still does not progress at that point. (sorry for my English)

Edrick1976

Once again thank you for having a game with really good music.

Big A

Fantastic thank you! Just finished it I have more play throughs to do loved it. Can't wait for more!

Teufelhunde DJI

After the great work that you did on this episode, you deserve a break. Take one.

Greg A Workman

I downloaded the full version i played the season 3 a few times and might i say amazing job as always. but i wanted to start from the beginning and i was not able to. I don't have the first 2 seasons anymore because i figured i could start over when the 3rd season came out i had a few saves but not enough for all the story lines. Anyway i can start a new game in the full download or do i have to get season 1 and 2 again?

DrPinkCake

They are unlocked like the renders in the Interlude. You find them during the story.

DrPinkCake

Did you patch the Interlude? Sounds like you might have patched Season 1/2.

Anyone else have "story" rewards that didnt unlock? I've got 1 on Josey and a few on Jill that I am assuming were to unlock at certain points but didnt. I have josey sitting at 19/20 so maybe its something I missed but Jill has 10 of these "story" rewards that didnt unlock and I've went right to the end on her branch. Other than that, loved the episode!

Just delete and do the game again i think thats the only way i'm going to do this cause i have the same problem...

Quarterback

I am so excited

Markus Be

you just have to keep looking very closely i found it after alot of looking but people cant post spoilers here

Cannot find the 3rd key from the CAGE for the life of me. Any ideas

After patching the game some slides were missing and the text messages weren't working

Gmoney

“Intentions” by Diverse Music… def a BaDIK party song for the future Ocean 👌

Markus Be

just finished playing through the game with all girls and im pretty sure i got all possible choices and endings but will have to wait until the official walkthrough comes hopefully it will be soon =)

DrPinkCake

Please refrain from posting any spoilers here. Many who come here are downloading the game for the first time and should be spared of spoilers. <3

Branden Jensen

Had to wait until late last night to finally sit down and play. So many things on the go, but loaded up my "Game 001" save, and couldn't put it down until I finished the episode sometime after 7 AM. :D Incredible work Doc. I'm excited to play through my other game saves and experience the things my main save "can't".

C3NTUR10N

Holy Shitballs! Played through every maingirl and others, now time to fudge with some of my alternate choices/affinities saves as I know there are some hidden gems in there i haven't even seen yet....Gotta say DPC, you did an outstanding job on this episode with so many great cliffhanger endings. I am once again blown away - thoroughly enjoyable all the way...Even got an 'S' rating on Party Planner whatever that means...

DrPinkCake

Save files are kept in two locations: 1. In your "game" folder 2. In C:/users/your name/AppData/Roaming/RenPy/Being A DIK If you want to delete everything and start fresh, you must delete the save files in both locations.

How do I properly wipe the saves? I deleted the file as well as deleted the saves in the game but I still get the crash, and it still shows that these saves were imported even though I hadn't imported any saves

DrPinkCake

Mods tainted your saves. Wipe saves, restart. Don't use illegal mods.

Hey, my game crashes right at the beginning of the episode, after Jacob says 'For sure, it's one scary fucking mansion,' any way to fix this? or do I need to redownload again?

Thanks for the reply DPC I know your super busy. So when I follow the instructions that came with it all works until I get to step 7. When I Ctrl-Click the app, the normal "open" option doesn't pop up. I have the option "open man page" which when I click that, it pops up with a screen that says "no manual entry for BeingADIK" and the other option is click "services" and then "open" and I do it and nothing happen. Thanks again.

Ville Topi

now i really need a playthrough for the sidechicks, loved the Jill-playthrough a lot... great work Dr P! the render-quality was off the charts and really loved the music

DrPinkCake

Thanks! <3

KVLR_

Yea not gona lie more free roams please!

KVLR_

Not sure if you'll see this but Thank You Dr P! Incredible episode!! These freeroams are so damn good, really nailed every element of this... cant wait for more.

Incredible episode. Finished my first playthrough last night and had an absolute blast. These free roams are really my jam and Halloween is my favorite time of the year, so this episode felt quite special. Can't wait to see what comes next!!

@Maverick

Masterful episode as prior choices have consequences ! Having scenes cater for different paths will not make it easi for future episodes but I have faith :)

So uhhh when's chapter 10 coming out? lol

Whyd it end so quickly 🥺

Chillhelm

I was about to write the same thing. Hated it, when DPC had to take out the Friday Prophets' songs, but he really managed to find some great new songs! I'm digging "Welcome to the carnival" by Bex and "Halloween" by Holizna especially.

MUCH PRAISE YOU TRUELY SET THE BAR WHEN IT COMES TO THESE TYPE OF GAMES I HOPE YOUR ABLE TO CONTINUE GRINDING AND PRODUCING THIS TYPE OF QUALITY

AfterLife

I managed to finish 2 playthroughs yesterday, one of my 'other' branches and Isabella's. Loved the humor of dozens of situations, some were heartwarming and Derek was... Derek. Also loved the structure of this episode, the choice of new musics and the little extras you hid here and there. But! The best thing for me: the outfits and mostly Lily's. I love that way of dressing for women a lot and glad you brought some into the game, would be great if we could see some similar in the future. In short, EP9 worth the long wait time and I can hardly wait what you have in store for us in the future. Thanks Doc, 11/10. Stay safe!

corvid26

Killer soundtracks

Boris Xanovavych

found another bug, first is a black screen on Quinn lewd scene, " image 'ep9 quinn lewd34b' not found " was on the top left corner. second is there were two text messages from zoey on first free roam on sage's path with neutral affinity( I have DIK affinity and neutral affinity save file for sage's path and the bug only happens on neutral affinity path). then when I tried to restart the playthrough it became three then I restarted again and it became four.

Thank you Doc!

DrPinkCake

Vice versa. New game files go into old game files folder.

This might be a silly question but am I copying the files from the Interlude to the new patch or vice versa? please and thank you

DrPinkCake

By applying pirated and modified code from someone else who doesn't have the rights to work on this game.

Scott

Sally is hot.

Scott

How does someone mod your game?

Scott

That's what I used. 46MB a second.

I hope we get some Sally content at some point, until then, I'm all in on Isabella

fabled_sword

Sorry I figured it out! I extracted to the wrong folder and was running ut in season 2! Now I'm just having an issue finding my other imports and why I can't import them to interlude

DrPinkCake

Hi! When you start S3, click Import on the main screen. At the top, there is a text that says to change your source. If you click it, it will toggle between Patreon/GOG/Steam. If you made saves at the end of S2, they will appear here. Here is an image for reference: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/946357155974492190/950906262193840159/Transfers.png

DrPinkCake

Tell me which step that's not working. I believe it might be step 6 that says no such directory or file, and if it is, you need to make step 5 work by navigating to the correct folder. Enter: ls To list your files and make sure that you change directory with cd into ./BeingADIK-0.9.0-mac/BeingADIK_Season3 -- macOS instructions -- Detailed Patreon post with help for installing macOS application: https://www.patreon.com/posts/43977242 1. Put the zip file in your Downloads folder. 2. Open a terminal and go to the downloads folder using: cd ~/Downloads 3. Type “unzip” and a space, then drag/drop the zip file into the Terminal window. 4. Press Enter and the zip file will be unzipped, storing all files on your computer. 5. Wait until it's done. Type: cd ./BeingADIK-0.9.0-mac/BeingADIK_Season3 Press enter and then type: ls Press enter and make sure that you see the app named BeingADIK.app 6. Change the permissions of all files in the app by typing: chmod -R +x ./BeingADIK.app/* 7. Ctrl-click the app and choose "Open" from the context menu. The app should bounce and install for a while. Wait until it's done. 8. You may get an error saying that the app cannot be open because it's from an unidentified developer. Click cancel. 9. Ctrl-click the app again and choose "Open". This time the game should launch.

Priyansh Sastry

Yes, that was the issue recently switched to Linux still learning. I love the music in the BG. Lover you work DPC. Kudos to you and your hard work.

DrPinkCake

Happy to hear it! I tried to give all branches equal amount of love.

DrPinkCake

You modded the game and it tainted your save. Wipe saves, restart, don't use illegal mods.

DrPinkCake

Did you patch the game of download full. Can you paste the crash log?

DrPinkCake

Glad that you solved it. In case you wondered what it was, you have to set the permission of both the .sh and the actual executable file "BeingADIK" in the folder system.

Pop Pop

Well I can't post in the discord cause patreon verification is bugged. I cannot impoprt my saves from GOG. It will not find them. Even after attempting to transer. Please help.

Snickersnack

Love it. Totally worth the wait. People may make games similar to yours, but there's no competition.

Mike Pearce

MEGA and GOFILE were 2+ hours, but Mediafile downloaded in 4 minutes full game.

Gents I'm at a loss. I've been trying for the past few hours to get this game working. I've tried all the options posted in the file that comes with the download.....nothing. I tried deleting the download and downloading form a different site. Nothing. Getting age verified on discord isn't an option (I'm well over 18) so I don't know what to do. Only things I haven't tried are deleting the first 2 seasons and then trying again with this episode. Or do I have to have the interlude downloaded for this to work? Haven't had any issues like this with any downloads from DPC or any other dev on here so thats why i'm lost. Thanks for any help given. Edit: MacBook needed a system update so seeing if that makes a difference

As much as I love Sage, I really enjoyed the "Other Girls" path a lot. Great work as always!

Ryu123

when tommy is talking to jacob about keg my game crashes.

fabled_sword

As soon as I open the game my game crashes, stating an exception has occured

Blacklabyrinth

Heads up: Full game download is painfully slow (for me anyway) but the patch down load was really fast. MOst people must be going for the full game.

Morgan

Just finished every play through amazing job!

Gsuk1979

Well a total replay of this DLC required, good job I'm off on the 20th and 21st!

Nay774

Doc you have completely outdone yourself, well done.

Blacklabyrinth

Xmas came early. So very many paths to explore!

Mangetsu

Yep not just you, 233kb/s for me...for the last 7 hrs lol. Wish I seen DPC's suggestion earlier. Only 30 min left, gonna just let it go!

Priyansh Sastry

I am trying to run it on Linux. But the file keeps saying permission denied. I have changed the setting for .sh file to execute as a program but still, it says permission denied. Any help? Solved it. Time to binge game now lol

Saint Tano

This shit was Fuego. Dale DPC!

Scott

I followed the Jill path to the end as my first full playthrough. Very nice. I look forward to how that path plays out in the future. Nicely done.

Nordwolf

Sleep well, you earned it!

Patching was super easy, go for it guys lol

get some rest king!!

DrPinkCake

21 hours awake, I need some sleep. Sorry for not being here to answer your questions for a few hours. Try asking moderators/admins on my Discord server for help. If you can't connect, you can always send them a DM while I'm away.

Scott

Just a paid day off. Not actually getting paid by anyone to play it, lol.

I have never been this excited for an AVN update

ADL

animations & music were 11/10 thanks for everything DPC

Ghosthunter

Thank you for your hard work

you are a legend

DrPinkCake

That means you must find the right directory before doing step 6 of the installation guide. In your terminal, type cd ~/Downloads press enter Type ls press enter Can you see the folder named BeingADIK-0-9-0-mac? If you can, type: cd BeingADIK-0.9.0-mac/BeingADIK_Season3 press enter After that, do Step 6 of the installation instructions and onward

Mattia Ronchetti

When I open the terminal, the terminal says that he can't find the directory

DrPinkCake

Which step of the instructions provided doesn't work for you?

Mattia Ronchetti

I cannot open the Full Being a Dik on mac. why?

ArchAngel121996

Idk why but I have like the biggest soft spot for Rio

captianhardkock

Best episode yet doc 🥹

Nordwolf

OK, just have to say thanks, Doc, Thanks for they joy, thanks for the emotions, thanks for the entertainment. My bottle of hot mead if empty and I just finished my first playthrough. It's my blind run resulting in Jill branch with some other messed up relations. I laughed, I was sad. I ditched our christmas party at work today (wasn't in the mood anyways). I feel that was a good decision, haha. I am really glad I found you and your game. I am curious about how all my variations will work out. I don't know how you do this, but some of the feelings brought by your game are bringing up own memories very close. Again: Thanks!

And

Thanks for the help, I'll try that instead! I copied all the content from the 9.0 game file to Interlude game file and after that it showed me that error, I definitely fucked up somewhere along that process lol.

DrPinkCake

I would download the full PC version if I were you. Patching is just a copy and paste operation, but if you're unsure it's a waste of your time to try.

DrPinkCake

That happens if you modded your game with illegal mods in the past. You'll need to wipe your saves and have a fresh install of the game to fix it. Don't use mods.

DrPinkCake

I think I got enough knowledge to test it. Thanks

Boris Xanovavych

yes I managed to open it. so when you open it and the list shows sliding from right to left, that happens on loop. sorry if I explained it poorly I wish I could record it on video and send it to you.

And

I'm assuming I managed to corrupt my files lol, I'm trash at patches etc I dont know how I've managed to get every other update working except this one. When I try to open the game it says "A Ren'Py Game" or something like that and then closes, can someone smarter than me tell if this means it's corrupted and I should download everything again?

Exorikk

Thanks again for all your hard work, Doc.

So I found another bug too, either that or my game is just messed up. I imported a sage path game and when I get through the talking phase between Tommy and Jacob right at the start, the game just crashes.

DrPinkCake

I'm not sure what you mean. Did you manage to open the custom render pack? And it's somehow showing the tasks again or?

Boris Xanovavych

it's about the pack quest. the list keeps on sliding like when you first open it

DrPinkCake

Yes

Galaaz

Awesome episode once again. only halfway through jill path so far but already cant wait to see what the other paths will bring. Same high level of quality all around, I didnt check the clucks much yet but I intend to when I get back to it tonight. Even if minigames are not my favorite feature I gotta admit they're well thought and bring the game to another level. Not to mention add a good chunk of gameplay. All in all, it's as I was expecting... another amazing episode and it was well worth the wait. Keep doing it your way Doc. You're the best!

Boris Xanovavych

can I report a bug on this post? I found one

Volker R

My sincere thanks for this great episode, great fun. I didn't observe any issues or errors (Jill path).

Redginger1994

From the animations to characters to the freaking haunted house... all quality work DPC. I can't wait to see where the story goes next, and hope that it goes on for a long freaking time :-)

DrPinkCake

Thanks a lot! Happy you enjoyed it

DrPinkCake

Glad that it can be sorted

You've nailed it. I need to verify my age with Discord. Hopefully this will be approved in due time. Thanks for your help, DPC.

Amazing episode DPC! Ran perfectly for me without any issues and loved the quality! Thank you

DrPinkCake

I can't find you on the server. If it sent you to laptop due to age restrictions, that's likely the culprit since it's an adult server 18+. https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005292701-Accessing-an-Age-Restricted-Server-FAQ That might help you join

If I was already a member, wouldn't it indicate as such on my Discord home page? (Tried on the phone, sent me to the laptop due to age restrictions.)

Haven't tried on the phone yet. Will give that a whirl next! Thanks for replying so quickly.

DrPinkCake

Can you try joining in different ways? Phone/Browser/App? Sometimes there's an age verification setting that hinders you from joining.

I have tried 100 times (OK, maybe 5) to join the Discord, but I continue to receive a "Whoops! Unable to join" message. Any tips?

DC251

took me like 2.5 hours to get 2.5 gb downloaded through Mega, took me like 15 minutes to get whole 7 gb downloaded through mediafire. Thought I'd try to save someone else from that headache of waiting lol

DrPinkCake

Good to know! I believe PIXELDRAIN is very fast too.

DrPinkCake

Join here: discord.gg/drpinkcake Make sure you also connect your Discord account here: patreon.com/settings/apps

DrPinkCake

That means that you aren't in the correct directory when making that chmod command. I would advise you to join my discord server and check in the bug-reports room. There is a thread with macOS installation that has visual examples of how to install it.

DC251

just an fyi for anyone struggling with slow Mega download speeds, the mediafire link is working MUCH faster. Thought i'd share

Hey DPC, I'm trying to open the game on my Mac but I'm getting "The application 'BeingADik' cannot be opened" error message. I'm trying to follow the installation instructions but when I try and change permission with "chmod -R +x ./BeingADIK.app/*" but the terminal window is telling me that there is no such file or directory. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

DrPinkCake

Try another mirror. If you're downloading with the MEGA app, try setting the incoming connections to "6" and unlimited transfer in Settings.

DrPinkCake

You need saves from Season 2 for that. If you have Season 2 on another PC, transfer the %AppData%/RenPy/ folder to your new PC. If you can't, then you have to start over on v0.8.3 (eps 1-8) here: Being A DIK v0.8.3: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58768095

S L

I downloaded on a new computer, I dont see an option to simply start a new game?

Thanks so much for responding, DPC. Am struggling on the Discord angle as well! Will get back at it later in the day.

DrPinkCake

Join my discord server and you'll get live help

What's your work? ;)

Space Cat

Done my first play through and I loved it so much!! Thank you Dr P for your hard work and creativity! Having a rest before the next playthrough!!

Scott

I've started a couple of different playthroughs to get a good feel for the game so far. It's amazing! I can see a reason to start back at Ep1 just to try to get the outcomes I want in Ep9 if that is possible. Further game play is needed to be sure but I gotta say. The best part is I'm getting paid by work to do this! Cheers everyone!

Anyone know why the transfer speed is extremely slow for Mega? its only downloading at 190KB/s total download time is 11 hours. This is the first time it has ever been this slow for me.

Stian Husby

This is soooooo much more smoother then 1-8. Running perfect. So far the game and music is striking 10/10 on PT1

Still no go on my end, on a Mac with OS Ventura. It was seamless when I installed version 8.03, but I'm not able to do anything other than unzip the download. Tried doing the terminal method with no success, cannot join the Discord server either. All very frustrating (I'm also an idiot when it comes to technology), because the game is fantastic and I don't want to wait two years for the Steam release--hence my $25 a month pledge. I'll keep at it, but may need a little direct assistance at some point.

If your thousands of miles away from your PC and thought you could play on you phone on release day think again 😔 oh well I'll have to wait I guess 👹

Tim Arnold

Ahhh... I'm an idiot. Thanks!

DrPinkCake

Disconnect your Discord account here: patreon.com/settings/apps Wait a bit, then reconnect at the same page and discord will work for you.

Tim Arnold

Well, patching has just resulted in me being stuck in the end of the Interlude, and I have exactly zero patience for figuring out why I have no chat channels in Discord, so I guess it's a full patch for me.

DrPinkCake

Nah, it's the same as pressing the 'h' key. It hides the flashlight effect, and I considered it to be fine if people need extra help navigating.

GentleGiant

not sure if its a bug or not but if you press the scroll button to bring up the phone in the dark areas it allows you to see the full screen

Jill is the best girl not even close 😤😤

Stephen S

HAPPY RELEASE DAYS BROTHERS!! Doc, I really wish you have an incredible and restful holiday. You deserve the absolute best. I can’t wait to jump into this episode after work!

C3NTUR10N

Just finished 1st play with MJ path...fucking Chef's Kiss DPC---beautiful!!.......but now, onto the next girl.......

Thank you for the clarification! I can wait to play the new season tonight!

DrPinkCake

Yes.

Just to be clear, I can patch the interlude, or download the interlude with season 3? Season 1-2 are essentially a separate game with imports of the saves?

DrPinkCake

Yes, it will be released after all tiers have access to the episode. I haven't written it yet.

will there be a guide like there is in s1&2?

DrPinkCake

You had mods at some point. The mods taint the saves. Delete saves, start fresh. Don't use mods and don't bring your problems about the illegal mods here.

i am having the same problem and i never used any mod either

mine downloaded fast, but the game keeps closing after tommy and jacob are talking about kegs

DrPinkCake

No, I don't do that. I sometimes tease upcoming content, but I don't list everything publicly.

the game keeps crashing after tommy and jacob are talking about the keg. the game just closes

DrPinkCake

Season 3 continues from Season 1 and 2. Import lets you transfer the saves from Season 2 ending. If you are looking for Episodes 1-8, you also need the full game from this post: Being A DIK v0.8.3: https://www.patreon.com/posts/58768095

Mike

The full game links for windows on the mega download aren't the full game it starts import is there not the full game

GentleGiant

So I'm guessing party planning is gonna be a big thing in season 3. Any chance you have a roadmap of stuff your gonna put in?

Bobscratch

Get better soon bro. Sending good positive vibes to you.

Daniel SF

dude i said i didn't use any mod from season 1 until now . Even I use some saved from someone else but still the same . I feel like I played season 1 & 2 with window 10 and now playing the season with window 11 caused me the problem.

Bobscratch

No fool he means you modded your Season 1 and/or 2 game sometime in the past. The save is permanently corrupted, start over

Penguin

You mad dog. Thanks for makin one of the best stories out there, and being so hands on with your fanbase. Love it

Daniel SF

i didnt mod anything . i downloaded from the link up there , installed it , imported the save from Being A Dik 2 then play from beginning with Joey until finish it then start a first scene of chapter 9 then crash .

DrPinkCake

Happy Holidays to you too! Thanks for the support!

Thank you doc for this release, i can say all of us waiting on it as christmas gift :D I like your work and stay focus on this good story content its the best on it. i am glad to support your work from beggining. Marry Christmas and wish you best!

Daniel SF

crash after Tommy scared Jacob then shut down the game !!! Something happen when I didn't know it . I try to re-install 3 4 times but the problem still the same , any fix bro ?

DrPinkCake

You need saves from v0.8.3 to use Import.

i downloaded episode 9 and im not able to access the base game at all. it just says import and continue. do i need to download something different?

Marshall Iblis

I'm so excited. Thank you!

I expect i am being really thick, but i have saves and therefore just need to play the interlude and episode 9 - What link do i need to download ?

I have tried the game however I stucked in a cycle.

YES! Thank you DrPinkCake.

Martyn Romaine

wow. Thanks Doc this is a nice surprise to wake up to this morning. You're the best

Nordwolf

Good to know, thanks. Really great until now! And also... get some rest, it must be pretty late (or early) at your location :-D

DrPinkCake

That's as intended, RenPy has some limitations regarding minigames. You can save before it, but not during it. You can always sell items if you change your mind about what you bought.

Nordwolf

So far absolutely cool. However, it seems it is not possible to save the current state within the party planning game? I had to quit in the mid of filling the grid, saved and wanted to continue now. But the grid is empty again after loading. Not a big deal, but I don't know if this is how it is supposed to be or not.

Patz Crux

DrPinkCake, Love the new animations and option to skip to next music!

GeneralCuiJM

Thank you, sir.

DrPinkCake

I hope COVID's mild to you. When I had it, I wanted to kill myself for 2 weeks. Enjoy the episode and get well soon!

GeneralCuiJM

S...L...O...W... download speeds this morning, even on Mega. Oh well, I've waited these months, what's a few more minutes? DPC, can't tell you how excited I am, despite testing positive for COVID yesterday.

Awesome! Can't wait till the download and unpacking end :)

DrPinkCake

The installation instructions work on all mac systems, afaik. Make sure you follow the steps exactly, and if a step fails, let me know here or preferably on my Discord server for faster help.

Having same problem over here, tried your solution (which worked when I downloaded version 8.03) but to no avail. I recently upgraded to OS Ventura—could that be the problem?

Ardor

Awesome! Just what I needed after the week I've had.

Alex Y

The music in this episode is incredible Great job DPC

reggie

I love you are your work man, hope you have a nice holiday break after your hard work

NME

Thank you for all your crazy ass work DPC. It's too late to try it tonight for me, but after work tomorrow, will crush this over the weekend. I hope the post-production time and the holidays are great for you and yours.

tommyjellybeans

Open the folder the game is in press control and click on the application and click open. If it doesn't open again repeat and it will have a message saying unable to verify developer and open anyway and then enjoy playing

Trying to open the game but the Mac says the application can't be opened

Lucas Santos

Letsss goooo 😍 , Thanks DPC 💪💪💪

Chad6o

lol, read the fine manual, I miss that expression. Used to see it so much when everything was FTP.

DrPinkCake

Calimox

Crashes at the desktop right in the middle of a conversation and no both Interlude and main game are modded. It happens during the first conversation with Jacob.

Was considering going to sleep after drinking all night, but I guess that's off the agenda now. Truly hope there's a ton of content in this one. Cause the wait was very real..

Chad6o

Thank you Sir, thank you!

DrPinkCake

Yes. You did what this post warns you not to do. You will have to fix it by redownloading both games and keeping them separate.

Tre bemiss

I think that’s where I made the mistake. I merged it with 83

DrPinkCake

Did you merge it with 083 or another older version?

Tre bemiss

No. I never modded the game at all.

Thank You DPC! Got it to work on my Mac... Somehow haha :)

DrPinkCake

Did you mod the game in the past? Sounds like that could be it.

Tre bemiss

To my knowledge it extracted completely. I downloaded and installed the patch but also downloaded the full game if anything crazy happened. I just closed the game before putting that message in. If I come across it again I’ll definitely take a picture of it and send it to you.

DrPinkCake

Did the game extract completely without errors? Did you patch the game or download full? Can you give me one filename of a missing image?

Tre bemiss

idk if anyone else is missing any images thoughout the gameplay yet, but I've come across a few missing image messages.

Plebslayer

That's true, I understand but I checked it's affecting my whole house and my YouTube etc so most likely my end.

Farkas Jharls

I feel like Christmas has come early right now, 2 AM and can't sleep waiting for this to download. Thanks Dr you just made my weekend much better :)

100% you're the best

DrPinkCake

Servers are strained due to the number of downloads. Be patient as it's likely not your ISP that's the issue.

DrPinkCake

does this work better: cd ./BeingADIK-0.9.0-mac/BeingADIK_Season3

I am having trouble when typing in the terminal cd ./BeingADIK_Season3

Plebslayer

Of all the days my internet starts acting up :(

helltotheyep

samesies!!

Damn even with paid Mega the full download is stalling out... DIKs taking over!! OH WAIT there it goes... be patient everyone, it works!

DrPinkCake

You had mods at some point. Delete saves, start fresh. Don't use mods and don't bring your problems about the illegal mods here.

Yeah game is crashing at same point no matter what. Tried re-installing will re-download.

Jonathan Hang

Oh yeah! My first official Up-To-Date release (I became a Patron on Aug, 2 of this year, so I didn't have to wait long, like all these fine people). It took me a week to collect all the special renders, rewards, get all the scenes to 100% and played multiple playthroughs. It was a long, tiring but Fantastic week! Let's F-IN GO!!!!

thx doc love you

Nordwolf

As a former colleague (IT admin) of mine would have said: RTFM! (just unzip and start the exe; there is no installer).

Majah Flavah

You just told a guy to read instructions. Next you'll be telling us to stop and ask for directions. :)~

DrPinkCake

Read the instructions maybe? There are instructions in the zip and on this page.

DrPinkCake

Not an android game. Never was, never will be.

i have no idea how to play this episode i downloaded it now what do i do?

Krycholos

So excited! Got into the game at the beginning of the year and had to wait llike 10 months for the update. So psyched!!!

Nordwolf

While downloading I am wondering who is more excited: DPC for finally releasing and showing us all the new stuff he mentioned in the last months or we for finally being able to play it. I guess it's a tie.

Woooooo! Should've taken the whole day off and not just half, now I have to go to work for 4 hours, that's gonna drag forever. Thank you DPC!
