QSP Girl Life [v0.9.4.1] [community project]

[Dybbuk]

Anyone know if there are many / any events or story arcs specific to low 'hotcat'? Or is the point of starting ugly only to improve?

Apart from the challenge, from memory the Therapist sends Sveta to prostitute herself instead of keeping her for himself if ugly.
The Ugly duckling has also a variable that if she stops being ugly (hotcat >=5) the boys and the cool kids in general like her a bit more, but it is still pretty difficult to play as an Ugly duckling.
Other than that, no, I would say it prevents arcs, rather than send you on different ones, but I may not be up to date...

First of all thank you Dybbuk. My bad for not that clear explanation i really like how look nipples at nipples2.jpg from images\pc\body\nipples folder so i want that on my character.

Only way to increase the nipple size without cheating is a random chance via the fairy (or possibly lactating, but don't quote me on that)

Command for nipples is pcs_nips. If you want that picture, the value is between >=20 and <40

[MrHClock]

some ideas,
health and pain need a more sensible balance. ex. -30 health and +10 pain on sex, half with lube and condoms.
option to ask for money on random guys asking for a date/party.
tool tips for itens on a store similar to the status icons for thirsty, hungry, sleepy.
An image pack with renders instead of random images?

Why cant the dev just use ai images instead?

Why cant the dev just use ai images instead?

ai images quality and capability is just not there yet even with flux one of the best models struggles with hands, extra limbs and prompt adherence, there are areas where it has been used such as magic and the new dynamic portraits but overall it is often easier to use existing images as the quality is better.

also remember this is a small team and few of us have the hardware to run the necessary tools, and this is a labour of love and no-one gets paid. i will be adding ai and other sourced artworks for magic over the coming months, or for images that particularly problematic to find.

it should also be noted, anyone can change the media if they wanted to use ai artworks. it is just a simple image or video swap, and people have released replacement image packs in the past.

I think I read somewhere that the clothing options may be changed to have socks/stockings as part of the ensemble. Is that still in the pipeline? If so any idea when it might be implemented. Thanks

It is not something that is planned any time soon. There are various things that might be added in the future such as these, neckware, jewelry and hats but for now they are just things we might work on in the future.

does anyone actually enjoy this game?

No

Why cant the dev just use ai images instead?

Some use of AI might be incorporated but we are dedicated to photo realism and most AI images are not good enough.
I have used AI to extend and repair a couple of the clothing images but I still had to use Gimp to fix bits or build a template for the AI to work from. Maybe once AI generations are that bit better and if I get a really nice new PC from somewhere it could happen.

No, we're all paid actors. You can rest safely, knowing that your personal taste and opinion is indeed the barometer that universal truth is measured by.

 

[Tanner Griffin]

No, we're all paid actors.

and

No

and finally this one:

no-one gets paid

It seems unfair at all. The life we are living.
PS I tried another similar games but for my taste there are some issues, such as too much micromanagement (i mean here you can also do this as the way of punishment or enjoyment, who knows xD. But in the projects i dant wanna name there you stuk with those mechnacs). I also like community here it reminds me of early (again from my experience since 2007) internet when you actually dont need and dont care who is behind the nickname but you respect the person and you dont need to know anything else. I think you feel me, maybe im just little bit romantec but whatever. Thank you so much.
PPS So yeah, as Kevin mentioned the answer is "no".

Go to Menu > Cheat Menu > Appearance > Show beauty parameters and you will see what contributes to your appearance.

On the cheat menu, improve your skin to the maximum (or use pcs_skin =1000, biggest contributor by far to appearance) , give it a couple of tans, lengthen your eyelashes to the maximum, get the second biggest eyes (large), increase/decrease your fat to something around 60 and finally get plump lips, and you are sorted. You can put in the console pcs_teeth = -1 for perfect teeth if you want.

Strength, agility and vitality also increase appearance, so given that you are a cheater and already on the cheat menu, increase them as well.

Also, clothing, grooming (showering and getting rid of unwanted hair), makeup, lipbalm and deodorant contribute to appearance quite a bit.

Finally, I will say that there are no events on the game that require a hotcat higher than 8, so do not get too focused on appearance.

I would suggest tattoo professional make-up is my first priority when starting. It's the bestest cheapest option. 2000 for permanent makeup on a level you can't do yourself, and you don't need an umbrella (well you do for hair).

I'm playing bimbo start and it saves tons of money quickly, but bimbo makeup is also not giving much points to raise beauty

EDIT: on that note, I would love to have bimbo portrait image in my game. Hope it will be added in the future. I know I can change, but meh I don't like changing too much (at all) in cheat menu,

Why cant the dev just use ai images instead?

The tldr version is:

It would be a tremendous amount of work.

It probably would be smarter to first move the whole Girl Life project to another game engine before trying to replace all the images.
It is the game engine who massively limits how you can work with images...

For those who want some more impressions - the longer version:

I have used AI to extend and repair a couple of the clothing images but I still had to use Gimp to fix bits or build a template for the AI to work from.

Over a few months on and off I have managed to finish about 2'000 AI generated images for a custom Sveta character.
Started with pc folder, activities, selfies and then school, community center, appartment, carwash, clinic, hotel...

The good news - AI generation made this process a lot faster than my first try with CG renders from a few years ago.

How should the "official" ai-generated face of Sveta look like that appeals to a large player base?
For many it may be fun to roleplay with a different Sveta each time.

joining you here!
thanks

It's funny how i always make a structure with my character profile folder and stuff. For example: Games\Girl Life\Characters then its 2 main folders rendered and dynamic (previously i used this in a description part like this DMS [rendered] which mean dynamic magic shool). Boy oh boy and i'm not even an engineer (well the whole famile are) or it guy. It's some sort of bane i'm just trying to ralax myself. But no. Its about micromanagemet as some sort of fun/punishment as i mentioned in the previous post. Anyone? No just me? Okay. Anyway i wish you a great time.
PS Actually i wanted to ask do you have similar structure or something different? Sorry if that (before PS part) a little bit overwhelming.

Thanks! Love this, I will use it. When I wrote the post, I started looking for images, but this is gold!

There has been mentions of removing that permanent makeup tattoo (the professional in particular), as professional makeup level shouldn't be possible to achieve it with a tattoo... so enjoy it while you can
