nvm i found it

what item do i use for the first testimony in act 4???

Simply amazing. Great story, contradictions that actually make sense instead of nonsense like in some of the Actually Ace Attorney Games, and somehow has platforming in a investigation work without feeling forced!

It'll be here eventually! I'm not currently actively working on it cuz I'm working on other massive projects, but I do eventually intend to come back to this and make a giant mod that combines all the cases into one mod, and adds case 4 and 5. But it'll defintely be a while cuz these kind of mods take forever to make, they're really complicated!

I just want to compliment this masterpiece. No clue when the next part will drop, but I can't wait!!! This mod is insane and I am 100% here for that!!! The end left me very hyped for the rest of the story.

Hope I don't come off pushy, I get this stuff takes time. Best of luck if you are still working on it.

hamburger

eventually lol

The first 3 cases were great! Case 4 when?

I can't seem to be able to start the level.
The door out of the bedroom is locked shut with no interaction prompts, and the only object with a prompt being the toy chest, just opens, but nothing happens. Feels like Hat Kid's animation gets cut off too there.

I felt like I was on acid... 10/10 just like a real ace attorney game

sounds great! looking forward to it

I'm gonna bundle both case 4 and 5 in a mod that's gonna combine 1-5 into one single mod. Also gonna touch up 1-2

This mod was great, the story and writing was really well thought out and all the references you put in were gold, and the jump from the 2nd one to the 3rd one was super impressive, you can really see the improvement with the writing and especially the programming. Can't wait for case 4, whenever that may be coming

I have been waiting for years for GAA to be released in English so it will be the first time I get to play it too, well outside looking at the unofficial translation gameplay of it anyway. Hope you enjoy the game when it releases as it has been a while since the last ace attorney got released in English and enjoy the Dance of Deduction with Herlock Sholmes and Summation Examination with the jury as they look pretty cool to play around with. Perhaps they give you some inspiration along the way when playing the game.

Anyway, looking forward to playing case 4 when the day comes since you learned some new skills to help with it and looking forward to play Declaration 2 as well when I get the chance. Also good idea on merging all the cases and updating the first 3 cases to be improved as then it will be the full ace attorney experience when that day happens!

I might! I actually don't know how Dance of Deduction works, as this release will be my first chance to play GAA! I might start properly working on Case 4 soon, Declaration 2 has made me learn a lot of skills. I later intend to merge ALL of the ace attorney mods into one package, once Case 4 and 5 are out. And to go back and update the first 3 cases to be even better!

Ever since The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles was announced, I was wondering if you were ever thinking of including some of the features from that game such as the Dance of Deduction mechanic for example.

Overall loving your Ace Attorney mod cases as they are rather fun to play with how you had made it. Take your time and good luck with making of the 4th case as it seems you got a lot on your plate with your other mods at the moment such as HKSTDOI 2 you had released recently.

Haha I don't have an estimate yet, but not any time soon as I'm working on other big mods.

Great mod! I love the AA series in general and all of this little series is 10/10
I don't mean to rush you and I know these take time, but do you have any possible estimate of when you think you'll be finished with the 4th one? If not, it's fine, and I doubt anyone would hold you up to it
Regardless. good luck on the 4th case, I know you can do it!

Can't wait for case 4!

You are absolutely right with the setting. I do have a feeling that Hat kid is going to take Mustache Girls place (As the lawyer who gets accused of the crime after the defendent declerad innocent. (Spoilered in case I accidently found the plot)

The timing of the next part would've taken a while regardless, but it has been bumped up to 5 cases, since it's just too irresistible to make one in the Nyakuza Metro, it's such a perfect setting!

Do you think that changing the series to 5 parts from 4, thanks to Nyakuza Metro, contributed to the delay of the next part, or even if it was the last one as originally planned it wouldn't have released yet?

Eventually! These mods take a LOT to make, lol. For reference, this one took nearly 6 months to make.

So when are we getting case 4?

I T S A S P O O K Y M O N T H!

I'm not sure why that would happen, I don't know what to tell you sorry ono

Ive Done A Lot Of Attempts, I Deleted Both Went into Game Then Left Installed only Normal Ver. Went Back In, Isnt there, The Only Time It Is, Is When I Have The april one

I Have

Try uninstalling the april fools one?

I Down Loaded This And The April Version But It Only Gave Me The April One. Any Fix?

Ok, I loaded the level again and I am no longer soft locked, but I did get the cut rope glitch again. I got a screen shot if it will help at all.

Hey, I am stuck in Sih'x's basement . I was able to get in with out problems, but I had to examine the hats and the note in the dumpster twice to get the evidence. Now the only thing I can interact with is the tv. Also, when I picked up the hat evidence, it showed the cut rope picture and description . I'm going to restart the level, and hopefully I will be able to move on, but I wanted to let you know about this soft lock.

I've thought about it for a bit, and I think the problem maybe my RAM
My PC has 4GB, so, since your map is really heavy, I think it's just that it can't be loaded because of this

I have no idea why that's happening to you, idk what to tell ya ono

Reinstalled the game, it still crashes

No problem!

I asked a friend to try to launch it, and it works for him, so yeah, I'll try to reinstall the game...
Thanks for your help until now, by the way !

Sorry, not sure, worst case scenario you could try reinstalling the game.

I did it, and tried again after uninstalling every other mod, but it didn't work...

If the issue persists, try asking the Hat in Time Discord.

Right click Hat in Time in Steam, and click on "Properties" and then go to "Local Files" and then click on "Verify Integrity of Game Files".

Then try playing the level after that finishes.

How do I verify my cache ?

Hmm, that's odd. I've never seen this error before, but it seems to be failing to load the shader for the purple flowers, try verifiying your cache, maybe it's missing.

The game crashes when I launch this case :

Your AA levels are awesome. I'm constantly on the edge of my seat! I really enjoy detective games so the fact you are making these is great!

Thank you all for playing!

That was awesome, really enjoyed it! I got a good laugh and smile from all the AA series references too!

Great levels, I love the ace attorney levels you make. They're always a blast to play.

This case alone took like 5 months to make.

I will! Eventually! These levels just take a loooong time to make, they're a lot of effort. But I will get to it eventually. I'll also end the series with a 5th case.
