Regarding Unzipping Issues & Update 0.255
Added 2020-05-02 02:51:46 +0000 UTCWe noticed comments indicating that a small number of players are having difficulties decompressing the game file in split .zip archive format and do not have utilities such as 7-zip installed.
We don't want to force you to install anything besides the game itself on computer so we are going to launch an emergency release 0.255 tomorrow in the form of self-extracting zip file packs, with all known in-game bugs and issues fixed.
The reason why we split the .zip pack was that the game's size has surpassed Mega's daily download quota (4GB). We decided to drop Mega in 0.24 release for the aforementioned reason, but some patrons have expressed frustration over the lack of Mega links so we added it back.

Oh right, Steam is more relax on full uncensored adult content now. I even see young looking characters on some adult games listed there, too. Looks like they're okay with it as long as the developer say they're all over 18 years old, haha.

2020-05-13 04:06:35 +0000 UTCWill get this fixed in the next update.

2020-05-13 04:05:51 +0000 UTCYou get the full game (Steam release) and the uncensored version (patch download from developer support website; aka patreon).

2020-05-04 18:47:11 +0000 UTCAlready finished packaging. We received some bug reports yesterday so it took us extra time to address them.
Project Helius
2020-05-03 17:22:12 +0000 UTCThey say tomorrow, which has came to pass. Expect a few more days, since they also want to include some fixes in this 0.255 build.

2020-05-02 23:47:09 +0000 UTCGood idea!

2020-05-02 21:14:59 +0000 UTCAlso, providing checksums of any files you create and posting them along with the download links will help validate the file after we download it, to ensure it is authentic and complete.

2020-05-02 19:57:48 +0000 UTCInstead of consumer level stuff like gdrive/dropbox/mega/etc, have you considered a real solution that supports multi-regional access, large file sizes, and much more reliable? I'm a cloud/devops engineer and I would recommend either google cloud platform (GCP) "Cloud Storage" or Amazon Web Services (AWS) "S3". Cloud Storage or S3 are object storage platforms that won't give you the trouble user level stuff like the above will. There are no download limits/restrictions, you get actual links you can distribute to your community, actual granular permissions, versioning, etc. There's also Azure storage options from Microsoft, if you swing that way. https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing https://cloud.google.com/storage/#pricing

2020-05-02 19:13:48 +0000 UTCInteresting I was having this issue and neither Drive nor MEGA worked. Guess it's for some reason user specific not an all-aroiund issue with the files themselves

2020-05-02 13:46:28 +0000 UTCYeah, I wasn't surprised by some of the takedowns, but there were definitely modders caught in the process that had nothing but their own assets stored. Obviously this isn't an issue for something like FD, but its given me pause for thought about a service I'd considered one of the 'good guys'.
Gunnermilligan
2020-05-02 13:29:43 +0000 UTCThese mods that were taken down used doorstep so all code and mods was injected to game and no game files was delivered with mods. Edit: I think it may be connected to that after mods you can create lolis that were disabled steam release.

2020-05-02 12:11:54 +0000 UTCusing powerarchiver since several years, tried several downloads, but crc errors at each try. what about a patch file to update previous release ?

2020-05-02 11:58:57 +0000 UTCWindows 7, 8, and 10 have a built in extractor that works for 7z. It just doesn't work for .rar format.

2020-05-02 07:57:42 +0000 UTCI had the same issue and realized Google added extensions to the zip extension when I downliaded. If you make sure both files are named like identified in the drive folder it works.
Randy Brooks
2020-05-02 06:01:50 +0000 UTCIt's probably due to copyright claims. Mega and Gdrive have stricter rules regarding DMCA
Project Helius
2020-05-02 05:58:14 +0000 UTCIf there was ever software people SHOULD be forced to install, 7-zip has to be it... and while I'm here, I presume folks here are aware of Mega deleting accounts lately? Modders from the Illusion games Discord have had their OWN work erased by Mega with no excuse offered and their accounts pulled. So yeah, Mega ain't any better than WinZip it seems.

2020-05-02 05:45:05 +0000 UTCOne thing you could look into is Inno Setup. It's a software designed to make setups and self-extracting archives. GOG uses it, and makes setups that have the main exe, and a bunch of bin files that contain actual data. They usually split them at around 4 GB (the file size limit of the FAT32 filesystem).

2020-05-02 04:08:27 +0000 UTCTpose fixed? Im used to anyas model now also, tho her old thiccer look was better imho.
Solvite Sekai
2020-05-02 03:44:32 +0000 UTCNot a single link works as intended. Mega, is being painfully slow, Google give me corrupted files, Baidu is a hack paradise, and MediaFire, much like the old days, sits down and passes out. Broken links are broken. 4g is a large file size, but I would be accepting of a Torrent if it meant a clean and easy download at this point.

2020-05-02 03:42:01 +0000 UTCI was having an issue where if i tried t extract both files to the same folder they were overwriting things... I ended up extracting only one file (the larger one) and the game ran for a bit then crashed... haha
Grease_Factory
2020-05-02 03:39:43 +0000 UTCIt could be that the one of the files got corrupted during download.
Project Helius
2020-05-02 03:32:53 +0000 UTCfor my issue; I was using googledrive instead of mega or mediafire and 7zip couldn't unpack their versions correctly. Re-downloading from mega and both packs had no issue combining during unzip procedure. If you are having trouble with one source, just try another and see if that works.
Speedyshamrock
2020-05-02 03:31:53 +0000 UTCI had issues with trying to extract the files yesterday after downloading. Got some errors every time I tried. I checked and noticed I was using a really old version of 7zip. downloaded and installed the newest version, then I had no problem extracting the files for the game. so check your 7zip version, its probably out of date

Project Helius
2020-05-02 03:15:33 +0000 UTCSeriously, who doesn't have 7zip in his computer?
John Wang
2020-05-02 03:10:54 +0000 UTCI still prefer to use Mega.
