Ren'Py Brothel King [v0.2] [Goldo]

[selberdreher]

Regarding the Event bug of the latest Update, i replaced

BKevents
BKfunctions
BKscreens

with old ones from the patch before (DougTheC thankfully provided a link here), and it looks like it is working.

...how does this give you multiple items? I entered it in and it only gives one.
...
Or I'm messing up entering it again.

Probably. You have to enter each line one by one, and mind the spaces (but the console auto-indents, so you only need to worry about deleting some spaces after pressing return for the second time.

Well, actually it wasn't supposed to be published anywhere yet. Especially with temporary domain name.

Ping me if there still issues with mails.

The problem was solved thanks to nero.

goldo is there a reason why you mix jpg and webp? Just curious not meant to critique how you work^^

At some point it was established by forum contributors that converting jpg to webp brought no advantage in file size or was even slightly less efficient, so I kept the original jpegs. Although in retrospect, gaining a few kb may not be worth the confusion having different formats causes.

Hi, can someone provide the final patch for v0.15b?

Stressing once again that, while I am a coder by profession, I have deliberately avoided looking at the BK code in almost all cases. But...

This whole issue of girls failing to return sounds like there is a piece of code that runs daily that checks each away girl to see if the return date matches the current date.

You would think that, but nope, it checks if the return date matches or is anterior to the current date. So whatever happens, it's a more complex issue than that. A possibility is that the event did proc (and was thus removed from the queue), but was interrupted for some reason before the girl was actually returned.

I'm not much of a computer guy (as evidenced by my tweeting my junk to everyone and losing my Congressional seat)

Mister Congressman, I would like to thank you for your service. Also,

New patch out (link in sig). May require a new game, or at least new girls if you want to the fix to traits like Elite (can be fixed via console if you know what you're doing).

Send the traceback.txt here with the attach files option below.

Thank you for taking an interest in my issue. I've attached the traceback of the error that pops up when i initially open the game. This is the error i can usually click 'ignore' on. I've also attached the error that pops up after choosing my initial stats 'traceback2', as well as the last error that comes up after i've selected the front for the brothel 'traceback3'. it is when reaching traceback3 that i can no longer make it go away.

Please let me know if there is anything i can do to assist in resolving the issue

File "game/BKevents.rpy", line 120, in <module>

You can click 'ignore'. You can't ignore the error. Do not ever 'ignore' errors unless you're absolutely certain nothing bad comes of it (usually because someone more knowledgeable told you so).

Please let me know if there is anything i can do to assist in resolving the issue

There is. Reading the FAQ (linked in the OP as well).

After briefly reading the FAQ i found the issue, it was the persistent girls mix error. Thank you for reminding to read it, and sorry for taking up space on the forum without having read it in advance.

Dont worry this issue was pretty common and we answered it more then 1 time already, thats why it was put in the FAQ.

code currently in line 63. Running the game recompiles.

Or spend money in Shop for makibishis for meeting 1 & 2 for each ninja.

Hello, I was hoping someone can help me here. I can't seem to open the game. I double clicked and/or pressed enter on the application but the game won't pop up. Tried switching folder locations and/or restarting my computer but it still won't pop up. It was working fine just a few hours ago so I don't really know what the problem is. Much appreciated in advance.

Well thats a first for me it's working just fine. See if your antivirus program not blocking the game (in most cases this happen's with some program). If that dosn't help try reinstalling the game.

 

[Jman9]

If that fails, might also try if an older version of BK still works to start narrowing things down.

OK so I've played this through quite a few times, enjoying trying different difficulty settings and different girls and so on.

A few comments / suggestions. Keep in mind I know nothing about coding.

1. Is it possible to give certain girls specific traits based on the girl? For instance, I found one time that when I used Ariel the Mermaid, she had a thing for "wet" and Belle loved books and so on. Made perfect sense, but I am under the impression this was just random. After all, I also had Hermione saying she hated books ...

2. I've enjoyed some of the conversations I had with free girls before they joined the Brothel but once they joined, the personalities did not continue -- the best example I can think of was when I had one girl (Snow White) who was clearly very submissive and horny, but once she was in the brothel, showed none of those signs...

These may require specific girls that come with the initial game, I suppose, instead of the girl packs...

3. I wish there was a way to progress to the next chapter if my girls are ready even if I haven't finished the plot for that chapter. In other words, I'd love this to be, in essence, two games: a "run the brothel" strategy game and a "enjoy the plotline" game, both of which would progress at their own rate instead of being reliant on each other.

4. I still think adding an option for girls at the brothel to do "shows" with beasts (like at the farm) is a good idea, especially since if you never use the farm, you'll never see the artwork for that option.

5. I think some of the customers should be women... I mean, it's kind of implied by having a bisexual trait (and there was at least one random encounter with a woman wanting to have sex on stage with one of the girls) but it seems that when you have the list of actions at the end of the day, at least a few should be women requesting these actions.

6. I don't know much about anime, so I tend to download the western cartoon characters. I know those are separate from the game, but I thought I'd mention that. I did do a few of my own additions of some characters and uploaded them a while ago, but I hope others will add more (or take mine and add to them and label them better).

In any event, this is an enjoyable game that is fun with repeated run-throughs, which places it with the best games here.

Sorry, i got this error
(Unknown text tag u'color#009874')

can anyone help ??

thank you

Well thats a first for me it's working just fine. See if your antivirus program not blocking the game (in most cases this happen's with some program). If that dosn't help try reinstalling the game.

At this point might as well reinstall game, less hassle.

If that fails, might also try if an older version of BK still works to start narrowing things down.

I'm just going to reinstall the game. I didn't do it before because I have a habit of always deleting the Zip files containing the game and/or it's patches. I should probably keep them now if it's gonna happen again LOL. Again, less hassle. XD

Besides, other than the room capacity I didn't change anything else in the game. So for the moment, I'll just assume the problem is on my side.

I think it's this issue, which is now fixed in general but still baked into your save.

Try this (one line at a time, preferably sans comments):

MC.girls[X].name    # (to find which X the problem girl corresponds to)
MC.girls[X].recent_events['quest good result'].description  # (to verify that it has "...color[c_emerald]..." in it)
MC.girls[X].recent_events['quest good result'].description = MC.girls[X].recent_events['quest good result'].description.replace('color','color=')

At this point might as well reinstall game, less hassle.

If it's the AV, your problems might still not go away. Better check that first.

Is it possible to give certain girls specific traits based on the girl? For instance, I found one time that when I used Ariel the Mermaid, she had a thing for "wet" and Belle loved books and so on.

Yes. Most pack makers just don't bother or don't want to use the functionality. Leortha's Ariel does have 'Wet' always turned on as an in-joke, though. Don't know about Belle, but I kinda doubt she's assigned a book-loving personality via _BK.ini.

...the best example I can think of was when I had one girl (Snow White) who was clearly very submissive and horny, but once she was in the brothel, showed none of those signs...

You might want to give some examples of her lines that led you to this conclusion. Because that sounds like something the Community Dialogue people would want to take a look at, but without more info, well...

These may require specific girls that come with the initial game, I suppose, instead of the girl packs...

I think it's possible to give a girl pack a fully custom personality. __neronero tried something like that with... Aerith, was it? It's just a lot of work, again.

...I'd love this to be, in essence, two games: a "run the brothel" strategy game and a "enjoy the plotline" game, both of which would progress at their own rate instead of being reliant on each other.

You are not the first to express that sentiment. I kinda doubt Goldo wants to sabotage his own story-writing that way, and such an approach always risks descending into "If you try to please everyone, you'll please no one".

I still think adding an option for girls at the brothel to do "shows" with beasts (like at the farm) is a good idea, especially since if you never use the farm, you'll never see the artwork for that option.

I'm not personally opposed to such an idea (because I'm more into monsters and tentacles than your average Pornoe, I'd say), but there are a couple of issues with that:

• A lot of players don't want to hand their girls over to minions, period.
• It would necessitate the creation of another job, or something very close to it, which Goldo has said he doesn't really want to do to keep the overall design clean.
• The farm is already supposed to be a closely guarded secret, making public shows with tentacle beasts and sexbots will definitely draw the wrong kind of attention.

Well, one might try to champion sex shows at the farm, I guess.

I think some of the customers should be women...

Aren't they? I mean, Goldo implemented a barebones 'female customers' feature towards the earlier stages of 0.2. I don't think it has a lot of support right now, some pronouns, mild description changes, and customers turning female if a 'lesbian'-tagged picture is chosen seems to be the extent of it.

In any event, this is an enjoyable game that is fun with repeated run-throughs, which places it with the best games here.

How about a congressional review, Mr. Weiner?

2. I've enjoyed some of the conversations I had with free girls before they joined the Brothel but once they joined, the personalities did not continue -- the best example I can think of was when I had one girl (Snow White) who was clearly very submissive and horny, but once she was in the brothel, showed none of those signs...

The Community Dialogue is still very much a work in progress. We're much further along with free girl dialogue compared to slave dialogue, so what you're describing is a known shortcoming of the current state of it. I'd be interested to know which personality Snow White has (Shift + O to open the console and type "girl.personality.name" while interacting with her) - that'd give us a good idea of what personality we should prioritise completing next. Masochist maybe?
