hi, please try to do the following - select "Use default animations" in the preferences, restart the game via going to the main menu and choosing "Leave". Then start the game once more, and this time select the "Use Live2D animations" option, and then restart the same way.
Thanks again for your patience! So, this didn’t work, but I found a solution. Just to be sure, I "messed up" the game until Live2D stopped working again and tried your fix, but it didn’t work. What actually worked for me was deleting the "PERSISTENT" and "TOKENS" folders from:
"C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\RenPy"
I’m not sure if that makes a bad difference in the game since new folders were created automatically, but at least for this bug, it worked really well and my buggy save is working perfectly so far. I’ll test more and if I notice anything, I’ll let you know on Discord. Thanks again! Love the game!
