The most uptodate branch is master-ia (note: stands for ImperatorAugustus, not artificial intelligence).Is the download in the OP the same as the "Base" version in the Mods & More thread? (or the loli version / patched version)
What are the main additions in the modded version? I didn't really see anything except an outfit system. Apparently most of the mods are in the base version now? Has the dialog been improved since years past?
Dialog has not been improved, yet. Only a couple of lines from Isabella were retranslated.
About what is already in this branch, 90% of the tasks with a in the roadmap.
If years ago means before 2019, the art changed drastically since, and the improvement sizeable (mix of v1.7.3 and v1.7.5 as a basis, all uncensored, replaced some pictures lossless sources, added a couple thousand pictures).I skimmed through the images folder, and it looks like we're still using the same old "borrowed" artwork of questionable quality that I remember from years ago. I did see some mention of using AI art. Is that something that's being worked on and not yet implemented?
If years ago means before 2021, then another thousand+ pictures were added.
And lately, in dev' version, there's been rearrangement of the torture folder.
About "questionable" quality, I find the judgement harsh, untrue. A lot of care went into selecting the best available uncensored images at the time when picking them, for every act, every age, hair color and hair length.
Artificial Intelligence generated pictures are the next obvious improvement for a game with such a system (too many slaves need too many pictures for them to be of consistent quality).
Now, consistent quality might mean consistent artstyle for some, for others that means stripping the soul away from the game. It has had multiple artstyles from the very design back in 2014 (with a multiverse setting, it makes sense artistically). That's something to have in mind. Me I'm okay with IA art, but I want to find artistry out of it, it has to have some "balls" (metaphorically), as opposed to "dull", "bland" and "manufactured" looking.
About the "borrowing" part, I never understood the moral judgement, lol. It's an amoral game on a piracy website. What are people doing here shilling for copyrights and intellectual property? Moreover, artists won't get better paid by picking IA art instead of theirs.
Anyway, we've been starting with the 3 tutorial slaves. Their IA counterparts which are able to change weight and clothes are gonna be fully implemented soon(ish?) in the dev' version.
That's awesome. I refer you to bews, he's making a mod to replace all the slaves (currently their fullbody images). I think he's 1/2 done. Would be great if you are able to join forces togetherI've been pretty involved with AI art myself over the last year or so, and can see how this game would be just a perfect place to use it. It is very easy to write a single prompt including multiple variables (hair color, length, age etc) and have it spit out an iamge for each variation. The hard part is filtering the images to pick the best ones..
