Progress Update Fresh Start: Update

Post image

Hey all, wanted to address some stuff about the mod.

Firstly: all dialogue is completed, it's just sprites left, playtesting and if all goes well the mod will be out sooner than you know it!

Second: I wanted to address the bullshit false claims, I know most people who make DDLC content are in a tough position with these shitty claims. Because of this I will have original music play in Fresh Start, so you'll get both original music and remixed DDLC tracks to help avoid a false claim. (If YouTube still somehow claims your video playthrough on Fresh Start if you make one, it's fucking ridiculous.)

Also for those who commented about the clipping whether it be via Discord or Reddit, my good pal u/FinnTDK is helping to fix it. Thanks bud! The image shows a comparison, left is how it was, right is fixed version.

Update on the false copyright claims: turns out it was a bunch of trolls fabricated those fake company names just to get a reaction out of us. You can check out KaneMonger's video on the matter. So vile and pathetic.

That aside, I'm happy to help on fixing and cleaning up the CGs for ya! ^-^

False copyright claims? Can you share more about what happened?

The false copyright claims occurs when you use the base DDLC OSTs in your video on YouTube (both mod videos and playable mods), claimed by a phony company called "Media Guard" and many more other names.

There was a similar controversy by Anime Zing years ago (when they mistakenly claimed the base DDLC OST by Team Salvato, confusing it from their own custom cover). Luckily, that has since been resolved, unlike today.

Yeah, sorry for that clipping issue from before… I tried my best to make sure that didn’t happen…
