Nice to see the official version move to the 2.0 version. Won't have time to try it again til the weekend.
Nope. Still just as broken. I've got a pretty expansive girl pack roster, and I ran it through the packer. No dice. Added _BK.ini files to each that was missing one. Still broken. The girls simply do not exist, and I'm still getting nonstop errors.

Given that virtually everyone else can get the game to work, the issue must be with you. Maybe not with you as a user/individual, but still.
Post your error traceback, we can take a look and see if we can diagnose what you're doing wrong or whether there's a deeper issue.
nope same here: nonstop errors, doesn't recognise the girls, win 10
edit: clearing out all the old saves worked! thanks

"Well, he's not the only one. as an unofficial tester ( i test shit whenever I have time) Ive been having issues with theis new version of Bk as well which is unfortunate because I love the game 
"Well..had some time to test your new version of BK and gotta say I like the idea that you dnt make anything unless your girls actually does well. However once I got a girl to the point that she could work as a whore I would run into errors during the "End Day" phase, afterwards if I'd ignore the error it would slow the game and make more errors occur when the program doesnt respond and when trying to save..was going to save an error but the game crashed.. tried this initially on another girl but made a new start when i started getting errors"
Ive been chating with Kite abit privately. I will keep attempting whatever I can to get things to work.
Edit: Followed your instructions vadi.. before even starting after character creation.. how do I fix this?

Sigh. Again, if there are no specific errors reported and others can run the game okay, it points to either mistakes on your part or something peculiar about your setup. So reporting 'run into errors' and 'more errors' doesn't help anyone. Not you, not the beta testing, not other players.
Post these errors either here or on HHS, this way Goldo or other helpful people can check what exactly is wrong and hopefully solve the issue.
Edit: The error you posted is from a bad _BK.ini. Track down Scathach, edit or remove her .ini.

Thu Oct 07 18:44:50 2021I have experience with coding, so I can troubleshoot some issues. Follow the path, but I'm not only unfamiliar with Renpy and Python, but all that just looks like pure gobledegook. I imagine there's nothing wrong with my files, since I'm using the same copy as everyone else too, so I'm not sure file manipulation is the answer, but that doesn't leave me with a whole lot.
It could be an issue with the girl packs, but I still get the launch issue with an empty folder. I know the game detects the girls because it can do pack updates, but then it can't read them. It's very likely a lot of them are deprecated formats, but I'm confident at least a handful are quite update and so there shouldn't be any issue. Even setting the girl options to hide improper packs doesn't negate the error.

The explanation and answers are

.There are two easy solutions: either delete your 'persistent' data by nuking both saves folders (in the game directory and under Appdata), or just consoling 'persistent.girl_mix["default"] = []'. I think the issue has been discussed in this thread here, too.
Most of it is usually indeed pointless. The majority of the time, it's the last line that tells you exactly what went wrong and where. Of course, not knowing how the game or indeed Python work can sometimes leave you scratching your head...

found and edited, everything seems to be fine now. Also not running into any errors when training a girl to whore to thats a positive too. Thnx for the help

What does 'no picture' even mean? The game isn't displaying any images at all? Girls exist, but have the 'no image' image? No image at all? No girls at all? No ability to add girls to a girl mix?
If you're not cut out to be a beta tester and are unable or unwilling to make useful reports, wait a few weeks. Goldo should be through the obvious errors by then, and we can probably call the 0.2 release an actual release.

Возможное решение проблем с девушками. Установите игру на совместимость с Win XP.
У меня старый комп и проблем с девушками не наблюдается. Проблемы появляются когда я набираю 1000 монет и игра начинает тормозить, а при попытке сохранения ,она зависает на несколько минут.А так как автосохранения происходят каждый день , то и зависания становятся кошмаром игры.
Possible solution to problems with girls. Install the game to be compatible with Win XP.
I have an old computer and problems with girls are not observed. Problems appear when I collect 1000 coins and the game starts to slow down, and when I try to save, it freezes for several minutes. And since autosaves happen every day, freezes become a nightmare for the game.

Aila's solution is probably just a very roundabout way of removing old persistent data from play.
As to saving delays, these are indeed rather annoying, even on a moderately okay machine. A month or so ago I just gave up and made a 'disable autosave' option for my own fork. I also recall a time when at least my fork lacked autosaves altogether, and I had to make a hack to get them back before the Ren'Py version update.

After I fixed the two intro chapter bugs a couple of days back, I haven't really hit any issues stackdump wise. My replacements of block rollback for pass statements in my two file edits doesn't seem to have caused any of the horrors promised to me about dicts. In fact, the only thing I have encountered is where a wheel to scroll up a scollable window goes too far and ends up starting to rollback instead.
I have started looking at the code and see this thing is screaming for a robust rewrite one class at a time. I may take that upon myself once 0.2 has its dust start to settle. The most obvious flash point here seems to be the girl mod framework and how there appears to be little to no error checking/logging, and that's causing a lot of grief with failed installs.
Is the 3 Ninja quest holding me up for getting an upgrade to my brothel license? That last time I played this, I only had to meet a money target before an upgrade button appeared (on the city neighborhood screen IIRC). I'm long past the initial $5000 target with all but 1 of the 8 girls at Rank B and over $12000 banked. Yet I've only gotten 1 of 3 Ninjas met, and the artificial limit of one hunt for day is too excessive. Why shouldn't I be able to go out hunting as long as I have AP when the RNG for encounter seems to be so low?
I haven't tried to dump into the console to inspect/poke yet, but I did see something or other about using escape to do whatever silliness. I also see that RMB seems to drop me back to the brothel status screen for whatever reason. My question here is why developers think it is in everyone's interest to remap well known Renpy gui features to something entirely different? Why, especially, fuck with console controls when this game is in a state where my escape and shift-O buttons may be worn out by the time I'm done? This is one of my pet peeves I have that's right up there with removing source, blocking rollback and stuffing everything away in rpa archives in order to keep the user from their content. If you are going to play with keymaps, there's a whole row of function buttons up on those keyboards that you can use while staying away from good ole <ESC>.
The shop system needs a lot of work because the whole inventory setup sucks. We are at the mercy of whatever crap the rng Gods gen up for us no matter the cost. Please tell me why the thieves guild only has one article for sale per week(?), when instead their back room should look like something in that pawn shop in FreeSide in Fallout New Vegas. There should be a clothing store with all of the essentials in quantity that's ranked to what we need for development/training and can afford. The toy shop should have something more than just maybe one butt plug. I've done better picking up random encounter loot than I ever did going into a store with money burning a hole in my pocket.
The farm is useless if your mc is going to treat their girls with TLC and not asshattery. There should be an option to make it more like a thing that some girls get into (think Skyrim Foresworn and certain Loverlabs mods) and thus not traumatized when they get trained on the farm.
Also, why are we so hetero with this thing and are stuck with girls and not gurls? I realize this is probably not in the creator's wheelhouse, but there's a whole community of content developers who would probably jump right on board. FreeCities didn't have any problem doing it. Cmacleod's Flash parody of Princess Maker (Slavemaker?) had some alternative girl packs that draw upon a wealth of genderbent anime icons. Whoremaker makes it hard to keep the mc from getting put on the road to switch hitting. Hell, you even have one literally sitting in your game that's already installed, but you don't think about what happens when they take a bath.

Before you go very far with your desired improvements you need to think over things from a project POV. BK is the passion project of one person. And that's not going to change any time soon. That means you have to decide which of two very different paths you want to take with your changes. Working with Goldo or without him.
Working without him means you would be creating a mod. Sounds like a fairly major mod. Maybe even a fork. That's doable, but look to the Bonanza mod for what that path entails. JMan, who did Bonanza is still around and hugely active in the BK community. But Bonanza itself is mostly dead. That's because a massive mod like that becomes hard-tied to a specific version of the game. And unless you continue to actively work to keep your mod compatible with each new version of the core game it will quickly be left behind as the core game moves forward.
You also would need to think about what is there about your mod that would make people want to play it instead of vanilla BK. Bonanza was created because JMan wanted a somewhat different playstyle than vanilla offered. It billed itself somewhat as "BK-hard mode". This drew people to play it instead of vanilla. What would draw them to play your mod?
Working with him means you will need to get his approval for each change. He's generally very accepting of changing things in the core game, but he does not accept everything. And he has a definite vision of where he wants to take the game, and will decline things that do not fit with that vision. If you want to go down this path I suggest comming over to the BK home forum and proposing your desired changes over there. Break your changes up into discrete items and lay them out. If you don't get his approval ahead of time on each item you are setting yourself up for wasting your time if he declines an idea after you have invested time into it.
