Daily Drive: Tuesday, December 24, 2024
(Offline, non-Steam)
Holly run: 1P (Full Chain!)
& 4P Virtual Player Count


So... for those of you who don't already know, AAC's Daily Drive does actually support Virtual Player Count (as well as all other EX Options, I think)... but only if you run the game directly, and not via Steam (i.e. find the game directory and run the "cactus" executable yourself... if you run the game via Steam, VPC will be disabled for the Dailies, even if Steam is in Offline Mode)! =)

----------
[A little extra info for anybody interested]

[Location note: If you don't know where the game directory is, you should be able to find it by right-clicking the game in Steam, selecting "Properties" then "Local Files" then "Browse"]

[Save file note: Running the game directly uses a different Save File location, so if you want to use your Steam AAC save file (which you should be able to find at "Steam/userdata/(user#)/250110/remote" (or a similar location, depending on your OS or other factors)), just copy that save file (game0a.sav) into the "cactus_Data" subdirectory in your game directory]

[Gameplay note: Because you're not running the game through Steam, the game will look at your OS for date and time info... so you can actually choose any day you want simply by changing your OS's date and time! Also, the game will allow you to play the Dailies as many times as you want, instead of just once (the Offline Dailies use a different set of seeds, though, so they will be different from the Online Dailies)]

So, two years ago, when I recorded the Christmas Eve Daily with Holly... it hadn't occurred to me until after I'd already uploaded the video... that I probably should've used Holly's default outfit, for its red+green Holiday colors. ^.^

Anyway, something brought this to mind again this year, so... I thought it might be fun to record another Christmas Eve Daily, this time with Holly's default outfit. =)


Interestingly, like last time, Layer 4 gave Holly some troubles... ^^; And this time, Layer 8 also caused some problems... and I definitely had to make some strategy adjustments to help deal with both...

But anyway, long story short, eventually... this run happened. ^_^

So, here it is... my second ever Holly vs. VPC4 Daily Drive Full Chain win... hope you enjoy!
