not sure if im being an idiot, but done this and not it just says loading game assets and nothing else?

You just need to wait for longer.

2 questions:

- I understand opinions, or at least some of them, are related to traits/skills/abilities/jobs: an NPC with high lewdness would probably like/love "hot weather" and "revealing clothes", an NPC with high endurance/strength would probably like/love "running", "swimming", "working out" and so on. But I wonder if the opposite is true? I mean, if NPC's with low lewdness change opinions from hate to love "not wearing underwear" shouldn't their lewdness change? Or, if cooks go from like to hate food prep" work, shouldn't it more likely for them to change job/be fired?

- I (and some other people) already asked this, but never got an answer and it makes me curious: how does the game decides how NPC's are dressed? I'm referring in particular to the check clothing interaction, either because an NPC is breaking the law or because an employee is wearing conservative clothes. I remember having a bartender with lewdness 100 and likes/love "revealing clothes", "not wearing underwear" and so on, and she never went past "undress 2" (at least in public); a couple of months later I hired another bartender with much lower stats and she dressed like a slut at least once a week.

1. No, attributes affect opinions, but opinions don't change attributes. If they did, there would be a positive feedback effect and everything will end up at the extremes.

2. That's a very long answer. There's a lot of code that deals with that, and it handles different situations differently. Every outfit (essentially image in the game) has a revealing factor, higher value means more undressed, so 0 is fully clothed and 9 is naked. This is the number that follows the z in the image file name. Each character's opinions and attributes set the characters maximum revealing factor they are willing to wear in public. This value depends on their lewdness, age, job and opinions regarding attention, revealing clothing and public nudity. This value is further modified by the laws. So if they are willing to wear a 4 in public but the sexy clothing law is not passed they won't wear anything above 2, unless they don't care about laws (honor is low enough). So when a person is getting dressed it picks an appropriate outfit that meets those rules. Also, characters don't have an infinite number of outfits to wear. In your example, it could be that the first one doens't have any undress 3 or 4 to wear so would need to either wear a 2 or a 5 for example. I try to avoid those situations but there's a few characters with missing values that screw their ability to pick sexier clothing.

How can you make someone your slave?

Wait for a patch that will fix it.

I always wondered whether these personality types (I call them "archetypes" in my headcanon) have any further significance once a character is created with attributes and preferences according to them. Will it make certain changes more or less difficult? I guess now is as good a time as any.



I do not have explicit proof since I never kept tabs but I think likes sometimes change without player interaction. It seems to me that workers of opposing nightclubs got better opinions for working. I always thought this was due to their bosses talking to them. It of course is probably way lower than what a character can do (who will go along this organized, seek out potential victims to an opinion change intentionally, maybe start with "following orders", while an opposing club boss randomly meets an employee, has nothing else to do and tries stuff, probably even with a lower opinion). Just as the recruitment to the Society for Decency, at least in my headcanon, comes from people randomly meeting, and not as a scripted event. In the latter case I think it would be more regular. But as I said, I do not have proof and may be mistaken.

They are called archetypes in the game too! In general, they only matter for creating the character. After that it doesn't matter much except when trying to assign a new opinion. If they have no opinion, the difficulty of setting it to a new value depends on their archetype. But I can't think of any other place where it matters.

NPCs do change opinions without the player interaction but it's not common. Other club owners can also attempt to change the opinions of their employees. This is not done in a particularly directed effort, but they will try to get them to like their jobs and like revealing clothing and a few other job-specific opinions.

I have an interesting bit going on. One of my singers, stripping not yet active, has a lewd rating of 69, I've made her love revealing clothing and public nudity, and she still refuses to wear the clothing expected of the job. I'm not sure what levers to pull, at that point. I've warned her maybe a dozen times so far, and a second has started now, identical except her lewd is 56.

Anyone seen this before?

Two things I can think of. Like I mentioned earlier, her sexy options may be too sexy for her to wear. This can happen with some characters that I screwed up and didn't create proper clothing options for every level. The other option is that she has a negative opinion of attention or has a very low rationality in which case she will act in unpredictable ways. Not sure if following orders also plays a part here.

But in general that should be enough to make them wear anything.

You must have screwed up something when you edited the file. I suggest you put it back and then enter the data in the in-game options menu. You will need to restart the game after setting it so that it loads all the images.

What factors into how many people visit your club?

Compared to two other clubs I have higher fame and customer satisfaction, and have done for a significant amount of time but they both have always had around double the number of customers every day. I've got an upgrade entrance with two people working there, so I don't believe that would be the bottleneck either and the cover charge is the same across all three clubs.

Is there some artificial boosting in the background to increase the number of visitors to the other clubs to help them remain competitive?
Or am I missing something obvious?

Details in case it's useful:
My club
Fame: 889
Satisfaction: 47%
Visits: 374

Club1
Fame: 575
Satisfaction: 34%
Visits: 501

Club2
Fame: 642
Satisfaction: 37%
Visits: 605

Just randomly stabbing at thin air, but maybe the other offers at the other clubs (alcohol, food, depending on what else you built parking, gaming, etc.) are cheaper. Or you're stumped by geography.

Hope someone can help. Can someone look at image "scw-00115-z10-nude" please and tell me if they can see something weird with her legs. The other images for this character look fine to me, but the nude image doesn't.

If others can see what I can see, could someone show it to the Dev please. Sorry to be a pain, but I'm not good at computer stuff or I would do it myself. Thanks xxx

Well, nothing wrong with her, I do not discriminate against the double kneed - they may have interesting ways of pulling you in deeper

(Fluke reads here and reacts a lot, you already did enough for this thread probably)

Oh good! I thought perhaps my brain was broken or something. More broken than it normally is, I mean.

So I fixed the bug with the slave creation and played around with it a bit. I have some thoughts. It would be nice if the game didn't tick over when you requested them to undress, I wanted to set their nude outfit every time you call them but the game ticks over and they leave the location when you do making it challenging to actually request them to show up nude. It would also be nice if you could call someone to the games room to gamble with them because otherwise it would be near impossible to legitimately get certain people as a slave, this could also be accomplished by being able to ask someone to come with you to the games room. I think it might also be beneficial if the gambling law was available a bit sooner, being locked behind all the time extensions is a bit much. On that note I think there's slightly too many time extension laws required. I like a good grind but having to wait several months with good RNG to pass laws to extend the opening times only to finally start getting to the good laws is a bit much. It might also be better to sprinkle in some good laws in between the opening hours laws. Say when you unlock afternoons you can also unlock dancers. Making the early game just about extending the opening hours of the club just feels like a chore more than fun. I think it might also be cool if you could make commissioners slaves, opens up opportunities to force them to vote your way on the laws due to their bad gambling habits. This would also tie more closely into the shady dealings story some commissioners get.

The pool game also states "you have 0 balls left on the table" so there's an off by 1 error somewhere there that should probably be fixed. Also I think you can remove the restriction on the SMD for commissioners since you can force them through gambling and make them join before being elected. Maybe I misread the code but maybe just a really low chance to join when requested instead of blocking it outright.

im skipping this game until we get pregnant cg.
there also needs to be an option to get rid of all the hideous muscular women or at least kill NPCs.

Already are for some, not all npcs. More will likely be added over the next few patches given the rate Totalfluke has been adding content.

there also needs to be an option to get rid of all the hideous muscular women or at least kill NPCs.

Advance the mob storyline until you repeatedly kick their asses and eventually you can use them to remove specific npcs (note this may have some unexpected side effects depending what role is held by the people you are removing).

Total Fluke already added pics of women in pregnant state.
You can browse through the character folder and remove all muscular models by yourself. Just be sure to remove all pics from that girl(all clothing states).
I guess its best done before you start a new game, dunno if the game tries to fill those spots or not.

 

[Cartageno]

No need to answer that guy. He comes around once a month with basically the same comment and apparently ignores anything you tell him about the issues.

 

[GeorgeJeff]

Please forgive me for being stupid, but I unzipped all of the character packs into the characters folder and the game says
"Error!
14 Images found, please install additional image packs"

What am I doing wrong here?

 

[Dr. Lin]

Have you tried raising the person's "Attention" stat. I think that has some impact on their reluctance to show more revealing clothes.

That actually makes a lot of sense xD

Have you unzipped the files in the first characters folder or the second?
StripClubWars>characters>characters>unzipped here?

 

[GeorgeJeff]

There wasn't a second characters folder inside of the first one. I added one and put everything in there and it still didn't work.

There should not be a second character folder as far as i understand it, i guess that you opened the folders and checked that wasn't a problem with the extraction, so i guess that maybe is a problem with the img modules?
Have you checked that are registered in the game?

 

[GeorgeJeff]

The only thing that was in the characters folder was a folder called Defaults with some other images in it, I also tried unzipping everything into there and it didn't work either.

What i mean is, in the config or user_config should be a line that says:
"image_modules string scw # comma separated list of image modules to use"
here you put the names of the img packs that you extracted in the character folder, usually should be like this, the defaults are defaults so doesn't need to be added, check that the scw (official pack) or the others that u added are in this list.

I'm really sorry for being stupid, I'm looking at this file and adding the names of the folders that I unzipped but I'm still not finding any luck.
I know there's something I'm doing wrong
