Game crashes on 26 Dec after gifting ribbon

[Meme-Eater]

Hello,

First, I want to say that I really enjoyed this update. The decorations, dialogues and events were awesome...I loved it.

I opened the game today and, after Monika wears the green ribbon I gave her, the game crashes. Here is what happened:

[code]
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

I tried reopening the game, but it crashed again...

What can I do to fix this? Thanks.

Did anything weird happen when you gave her the green ribbon on Christmas? Did the game crash when you gave it to her or did you somehow quit in the middle of giving it to her?

Also, would you mind sending over your persistent please? It can be found at AppData/Roaming/RenPy/Monika After Story. Please just rename the persistent file to persistent.txt and send it here, thanks!

Hi guys, thanks for your help.

On Christmas she didn't even recognize any of the ribbons. The chocolate, fudge, etc. went ok. On Dec 26 I tried again with the green ribbon and she recognized it, but as soon as she wears it, the game crashes.

I tried removing the ribbon from the character folder, but still she recognizes it.

Here is my persistent file.

Thanks a lot
persistent.txt

Okay, I've managed to fix your persistent. That said, the errors you're seeing are ignoreable, meaning that you could just hit the ignore button on the traceback screen and it'd dismiss it. I'm still not entirely sure what's caused this to happen, but we'll be looking into it.
persistent.txt

(remove the .txt extension and replace your current persistent with this one)

Thanks a lot! Now it works great and Monika is fine too! Good thing she doesn't remember all those times the game crashed.

Thanks again!

No worries!
