Java Corrupted Saviors [Release 66] [CSDev]

[CSdev]

It's for both game modes and I'm using a PC.
Tried running the game as an administrator and both files (exe and jar).

Maybe it has something to do with my JRE, but I didn't try updating it yet.

My best guess is that it's an overzealous antivirus preventing the game from creating new files on your harddrive.

Wow this game really has gone a long way. Honestly, I expected the game to die or the dev to abandon the project. I'm glad he's invested because I love games like this and I need more games like Eratohok.

Keep up the great work!

What do I see? Images in my text game?!? Blasphemy!

jk. Good on you for stepping up your game. They look great.

Glad you're both still liking it!

Thank you for the compliment! Everyone has their own preferences so I appreciate you trying out my portrait pack! I'm working on a update that includes 4 new chosen designs, male variants of the current designs, and a new outfit w/ variants for forsaken in their civilian form. It should be finished either the end of this week or the week after so look forward to it! Oh and one of the new chosen designs is my current profile picture so consider it a preview of what's to come ^^

I like the punk aesthetic. It definitely fits some of the personalities.

here you go, thanks for replying so quickly

Wow, that's surprising. My guess as to the problem here was way off. What's happening is that, when a Tempted Chosen becomes one of the Forsaken, the game uses her current Tempt PLEA Requirement to determine how many times she's had anal sex. But the logic has trouble with Edge's Tempt Req of 0. It tries to say that she's had anal sex an infinite number of times, which sort of breaks reality.

I'm currently not in a hurry since I just found a very weird workaround.

The internal windows scaling resolution/size for apps doesn't affect the game on launch. The important part there being "on launch". If I launch the game in a very low scaling (100%) and then upscale (300%) the UI interface actually scales with everything else untill the app is closed.

Someone else was having the same problem, and I believe they ended up finding a completely different solution. Still, I'll try to either have the UI scale as well with the text size toggle, or else add a separate toggle.

Is there a way to neatly export my current team from a random generated single playthrough (that I haven't finished yet)? I would like to attach the team to the portrait pack.

If I remember correctly you can export a randomly generated team if you load the save with them and go to “data” and export but it’s been awhile so there may be a day requirement like day 10 or day 15 before it unlocks

Yeah, I thought so as well, at least I remember the option was there and should work like that. The button is visible, but when I click on it, it doesn't do anything (no message, no confirmation, no team on import list). I'm on day 22, so I suppose it should work. A bug? Perhaps not supported for single playthroughs?

Possibly, I remember it would at least make a save of it, and this was before campaign mode was implemented iirc so single playthroughs should work if anything. but I haven’t used it in so long either, once i get home I’ll try to export a random single player save as well post back here if it’s also not working for me

Cool, appreciate it!
In the meantime - some saviors! Only the vanilla and civilian variants are made atm (even though I have an idea how I wanna make forsaken and superior versions, I don't have much free time so it takes a while :C). There's a few shortcomings I'm aware of (eye highlights, some cleaning to do, etc.) that will be probably fixed when I update the packs with additional variants.

The packs were created using

, based on a randomly generated group of Chosen. I attempted to fit the looks with how they act in the game (at least, at the beginning of the game). The differences should be visible through emotions and I believe the girls turned out quite different, with unique personalities even though they were made with the same generator. While they work best with the archetype they were based on, you can of course use them as you wish.

In any case, enjoy and I'll be happy to hear what you think

Okie I just tested it out on my game and I have the same problem as you so it must be a bug, I’ll message CSDev about it on subscribestar and let you know what happens. And I really love the designs you made for your art pack!! especially shadow’s and moppet’s! The moppets I’ve encountered in game are the shy and low confidence types so that sort of face really suits her!! Same for shadow’s more apprehensive look. I’m working on something that requires me making custom chosen and I think I’ll try your pack of these characters instead of my own this time around. I know it’s a lot of work to make things so thank you for the dedication and hard work you put into them!

Sorry about the export function being bugged. I haven't seen it used much since all the way back when it was implemented in Release 4, so I haven't been checking it regularly to make sure it still works. I'll have it fixed in the next version. However, note that the campaign roster export function definitely works, so larger groups of custom Chosen with portraits can be easily shared.

Anyway, the portraits are quite nice. It was a clever touch to have the backgrounds be gradients with black at the left side so that they seem to emerge smoothly from the text window.

Whats a quick and easy way to get the % up I feel like I'm missing what triggers an increase.

I assume that you say the % of the last tier of corruption, then you leave them alone so they can do the extra actions when they have the requirements for each one (with the exception of detonating).

I think the easier way (not including detonations) is getting the given to good circumstance level and then start juggling them all (this is basically waiting to capture someone when someone else is about to escape), with some extra thing depending of what you are trying.

- slaughter is just leaving the target alone and only capturing her when is necessary to keep the combo going while trying to make the other 2 have as many turns for the target to cut down.

- masturbation is really the easiest if you are good at juggling, just try to maximize the turns without touching the target.

- striptease is basically resetting the effect by including her in the combo when she doesn't use the ability anymore. So either capture her or drop the combo when she stops using the ability.

I recommend using the flying commander with these.

- Detonation is easy but incredibly pricey, just use a specialty commander (not normal, not forsaken) with an upgrade that gives pain, pleasure, or hate (your pick) with base duration and max uses (or at least with 1,3,5 etc). this is why is pricey, to make it go fast you must expend a lot for the max uses.

 

[Anarchistic]

Where do I access the difficulty settings? I check in Options and Customize and it's not there. Am I just missing something?

 

[PepperMan]

PC froze (as happens once a week) while playing. After a restart the saves.sav seems to have corrupted itself because as long as it's there the game just boots to a blackscreen without any text or options. Remove the saves.sav and it's back to normal.

I believe you have to complete your first run (campaign/single run) to unlock the difficulty settings like easy or hard mode, but I think I remember if you go to options and tap the “c” key on your keyboard for a little bit it unlocks it immediately. It’s been awhile so I haven’t tested it to see if this part is still true now

I agree with these strategies as well, especially with the slaughter strategy, the only thing I’ll add is I found a pretty decent strategy recently to do for detonating chosen that doesn’t require a lot of EE to work. By making a base duration INJU specialty commander with only 3 extra captures and start with ambushing the target. The chosen will inevitably detonate herself raising her INJU to the next stage, after that she will get rid of only 1 your capture charges since her INJU isn’t incredibly high at that stage. From there use your other charge on a chosen of your choice and do what you can to raise the INJU on your detonating chosen as much as you can before the battle is over, especially if you can get them into something like an orgy. Then you capture her at the end for to immediately detonate and give you a large %. If you make your commander able to capture flying chosen you can just wait until she takes flight to capture her. This strategy can get as much as 100% + per battle if you get them to around INJU level 4 before capturing and the amount of EE used on the commander is only around 15-20 EE, I’m not at home at the moment so I can’t confirm the specific amount at the moment but I found it to be very helpful for raising % on Detonating chosen

I’ll confirm when I get back home but something similar happened to me recently so think I know what you’re talking about. I don’t know what can be done but I’ll message CSDev regardless

I can add that its not a terrible loss. It was day 15 or so of the 2nd city and i did backup after conquering the first.

 

[Repetition]

Would anyone be able to help me plot out my next steps? I followed Pretentious Goblin's steps and it worked incredibly well, but I am less sure where to go next from there. I am at day 14 with 20 EE and the following stats on my Chosen:

Spice: Breaks; Mor: T1, INN +2 & T1, CON T1 & T2, DIG T1
FEAR ---|-- HATE (Sig Vuln)
DISG ---|-- PLEA (Core Vuln)
PAIN ---|---- INJU (Sig Vuln)
SHAM -|---- EXPO (Min Vuln)

Calamity: Breaks; Con: +2
FEAR |---- HATE (Minor Vuln)
DISG -|--- PLEA (Minor Vuln)
PAIN ----| INJU (Core Vuln)
SHAM --|-- EXPO (Sig Vuln)

Miracle: Breaks; Mor: +2 & T1, INN: T1, CON: T1 & T2 (Prebroken), Dig: +2
FEAR ----|- HATE (Core Vuln)
DISG ---|-- PLEA (Sig Vuln)
PAIN ---|---- INJU (Minor Vuln)
SHAM ---|- EXPO (Core Vuln)

This is basically my first run, but I'm stumped on what the next steps should be. I can give more info if you think it's needed, like what is available to buy if asked.

Good job on your run so far! I assume you aren’t trying to get a specific kind of victory, but just a win by corruption of all chosen. so I’ll just try to recommend some general ideas for your run. If you don’t mind me asking, what are the relationships between the chosen? If they are beginning to be rivals it might be good to have them progress to become bitter enemies and work towards “Antipathy” upgrade. The fall out from the relationships will give you a lot of EE in their Downtime and from the relationship events. And with the Anitpthy upgrade they will also start the final battle with reduced resolve, making them easier to defeat them. One more thing I’ll add is if you don’t have networked consciousness to get it as a priority. If you have any more things you want to know feel free to ask! I hope your first run goes well!

Currently both of the more broken girls are Rivals with Calamity but not each other. I am not sure where the "Antipathy" Upgrade is, or how to focus it. I can see Network consciousness and will aim for that for now. Do you have any suggestions on who to focus next? I think it should be Calamity but I am less sure on that.

As a side note, it seems both Spice and Miracle start doing the violence and similar resisting surrounds which seems to shut them all the way down, which I have not seen bypasses for, since the suppressor upgrades don't seem to give nearly the same bang for the EE.

I just saw your beginner's Guide Kalloi, I'll try that and see if I can get that to work and understand this.

If they both are rivals with calamity that’s really good! If you can get them to bitter enemies then even if the other two aren’t rivals or better then you still will be in an excellent position in the final battle. Antipathy is an Endgame-level upgrade so you won't see it until after you unlock some of the punisher commanders. The main thing to do is keep it in mind as you unlock upgrades to prevent yourself from upgrading things you may not even use. If you check in the "info" option you should able to find it towards the end in the upgrades section if you really want to map out your upgrade path.

Who to focus on next, honestly your first choice of Calamity I would go for also against this team, her weakness to morality and innocence can lead to some really really big surround turns on her if you play your cards right. And those long turns can lead to a decent chance of breaking the t1 of her confidence. I would be careful though, since Miracle's t1 and t2 confidence are already broken, the relationship between the two would reconcile and maybe even become a friendship for Calamity's 2 confidence relationship events with her. So in that case, if you focus on breaking Calamity's confidence it might be good to break her t1 at first and then try to break Miracle's t2 morality soon after to revert them back to a unfriendly relationship.

Once you've broken the T1 vulnerabilities on chosen, suppressors lose their viability until you unlock versatility or even synthesis down the road. Now would be a good Idea to either use the defiler commanders or a generic commander bodies. Generic Commander bodies are good once you get a grasp of the mechanics to make your surround actions more meaningful throughout the battle. You will still suffer from the reduced damage from their new actions like violence or service, but as their angst builds up the reductions won't help them as much and you can get them to level 1 circumstance damage in one turn like before. And when you get things like extra capture charges and increased durations for your generic commander bodies, your strategy options will increase significantly. Topple that off with networked consciousness where you can immediately pick and action as soon as your surround a chosen and you can get those chosen to t2 breaks/defiler actions pretty easily.
One tip specific to your playthrough though is take note of Spice's Dignity as a minor vulnerability. If you can get her to level 1 EXPO in one turn then it might be good to start the battle against her even if your target may be one of the other two chosen. The multiplier applied to them will really help you stack the damage you need to break their t2.

A strategy I came up from the top of my head is to make a 3-4 turn generic commander or longer if you can already with at least one more capture charge after the initial capture. Then, start the battle with ambushing Spice. From there, do a test run to see how quickly her EXPO raises before reloading the day and trying pummel->grind->humiliate->caress or
pummel->humiliate->grind-> caress. Whichever gives the better results for you. And then using your extra capture charge on the chosen you are actually targeting.


Defilers vary in usefulness but can be very helpful for chosen with more tricky personality traits. Against this team the main ones I can see being useful to you are Ambition and later Vanity for Miracle, or Dominance for Spice, or even Vanity for Spice if you already have a t2 Dignity break on Miracle or you're not focusing on a relationship between the two

Either I hope some of this helps!

I can add that its not a terrible loss. It was day 15 or so of the 2nd city and i did backup after conquering the first.

I also tested it and can confirm this save doesn't work for me either. Still if your save gets bricked consistently at a certain point and its not a result of your PC corrupting the save feel free to upload it here like you have now. Thankfully I had a backup as well that only lost me a couple of days in a loop. Savescumming has even more uses it seems lmaoo
