Ren'Py Abandoned Defective Sexbot Chop Shop [v0.4.1] [Radnor]

[purplepumpernickle69]

What happens if i link multiple image paths to a single bot? Does it take all the files, only from 1 or does it automatically assign a random image pack to an instance of the bot?

You should probably put all of the images/vids for a bot in a single folder because when you list the assets you have to tell the game where the bot's assets are located for example:

"asset_packs": [
("bots botname","parent folder bot assets folder"),
],

additionally you should use a parent folder to place all of your bots into

i.e. assets/images/mymod/individual bot files

 

[purplepumpernickle69]

Are images not loading for anyone else?
Here not in game.
Like the previews on purples mod post and my big post.

Seems more of an issue on chrome, was able to get around it on firefox. There is supposed to be a way to get around it on chrome but it doesn't seem to work for more than a single image.

 

[Mr_Shaky]

"asset_packs": [
("bots botname","parent folder bot assets folder"),
],

That will look like assets\images\parent\folder\bot\assets\folder\
You need to connect them either with _ or by joining together words
("bots botname","parentfolder botassetsfolder"), -> assets\images\parentfolder\botassetsfolder\
("bots botname","parent_folder bot_assets_folder"), -> assets\images\parent_folder\bot_assets_folder\

Ok that's a better way to explain it.

Mr_Shaky posted instructions on how to enable/use console commands that includes a command for max energy, you can find that post here:

Is it possible to replace an animation from one of the mod bots with another,or the same one but with sound? Simply renaming the video you want the same as the one you swapped doesn't seem to work

 

[Otherguy2012]

Decent little game. I started on easy, but after paying off my debt I wanted a bit more of a challenge. Went back and did it on normal. After paying off my debt, I had figured out some more tricks. Went back and did it on hard. Now I'm considering installing some mods.

I did the same. Once you do be warned with mods this game is WAY more addictive.

You can replace videos, as long as they have the proper codecs. Supposedly some .mp4 videos will work, but .webm conversions have the codecs you need.

I see,i got it to work by actually using a convertor rather than just changing the name of the video format from .mp4 to .webm .Thanks a lot

Always nice to have new potential modders

 

[Istiffarmwhites]

Some features that I think would be interesting to see in the future are;

Ordering specific bots (like on the web where you deliver bots to those who post offers, maybe being able to post a listing for a specific bot with the condition of the bot varying it also varies the price of the purchase)

Possible ways to increases how much the xp gain is.

Upgrading the warehouse such as auto-tinkering (this being possible if you have a shopkeeper/techie)

Being able to multi select parts to sell.

Being able to bargain for parts/payment/bots with social.

Being able to steal parts/bots from others w/ combat and other bots.

Little bit sad, but i guess it is better than simple abandoning it.

Unfortunately, for multiple reasons, I am no longer able to develop and/or maintain this game.

I don't want to kill this game, especially seeing as there are already lots of fans.
So I decided to turn game open source (but not public domain).
This way any person interested in improving or fixing game may do so freely, as long as conditions in !readme!.txt are met.

Thank you very much for your support, it meant a lot to me! I didn't plan to end it this way, but real life can change plans really quickly.

I will look for maintainer and likely will transfer f95zone thread ownership and will provide discord roles to keep game community going.

As for my own participation, i can't promise anything, but i will check discord and f95 sometimes, maybe will provide some support, but as mentioned no promises.

As for reasons, it is complicated. While i had my doubts about commercial success of this game, i didn't planned to stop developing it, maybe just slowing things down. But recent political events, war and heavy mutual sanctions really messed lots of my business contacts. So last couple of weeks i was salvaging what i could and reconnecting with almost lost contacts. Generally, i believe NSFW games landscape will change heavily due to this, as there are manyinvisible russian developers, artists, writers, either outsourcing or whole teams. As payment way will become more and more problematic, including crypto, teams will break apart, losing integral members, best case scenario being long delays and change of quality/style.
Once things settle down a bit i may take bit more active role in DSCS development, but for now i'm dealing with business fallout.
Thank you for understanding.

If you can understand anything in game sources and interested in becoming maintainer/developer, contact me, please.

Well there's not much to say except: thank you, and best of luck.

You've started something great here and I hope it'll be even better when you can look at it again.
