VN Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.18.2] [Runey]

[Runey]

Here's what the new icons look like when you hover over them in v0.14.1 \o/
The day transition screen was also reverted to it's original functionality in that it will again wait for your click to transition into the next day, which also allows you to view the icons longer.

And the numbers represent the event? 2nd event, 3rd and so on or how many days until the next event for that girl?

The numbers represent the cooldown on story events. Or in other words, it counts down each day until it hits 0, at which point the event is ready.

Last try for me, then I give up.

Okay, now it is clear that you want a centralized cheat sheet that tells you everything you want to know and exactly where everyone is... My friend, that is the walkthrough mod. Not Harem Hotel. Cheat menus like that never appear in the base game for a reason. But you are more than welcome to use that mod if it ever updates. I will not be adding that though.

Stop with walkthrough/cheats, I already said it: NOT NEEDED. Excepted money, maybe.

What I try to explain you, and I hope you'll understand the analogy:

• I propose to add a GUI to see the status of all devices on my computer ON DEMAND (the mod main panel or an equivalent), knowing that a discontinued third-party software did it before.
• You reply to me that it's not necessary, since I can get these informations by typing MANUALLY, without even the support of a shell script, EACH command for EACH device and get these informations (going everywhere to see that).
• However, you tell me that each Sunday, at 12:00, you'll show a resume showing what I request, but needing anyway to hover items to get all data instead of displaying them next to each device name (the heads at bottom/right of day change screen, with hovering to get waiting delay, instead of adding these data to the (already existing) information panel.)

But yeah, that's cheating... OK.

The game is designed to be played from start to finish.

Are you seriously telling us here to NOT play your game until it's finished? Or is it a fallacy? Or bad faith? Because I hardly understand this argument, otherwise...

But this is a sandbox game, it inherently has mechanics that you personally don't enjoy, and that's walking around and looking for content to do. Linear visual novels might be more down your alley.

I don't mind sandbox games. I never needed a mod or anything else for "MIST", for example, or for "The Awakening", for "Desert Stalker", for "Hero Harem Guild", for "Deviant Anomalies", for "Twisted World", for "Corruption", or for most RPGM games - including NLT and Siren's ones. Or for near-sandbox games like "The DeLuca Family". At worst, I needed one or two things for the whole game just to save me a bit of time, and honestly a lot of them were related to misunderstanding something already written - I said it, English is not my native language, and slang/wordplays/cultural references are sometimes hard to understand.

I properly got through all the five "The Elder Scrolls", getting everything available, and I highly doubt that any sandbox game here can challenge the smallest TES game regarding grinding and content. This isn't the subject, it's only a matter of improving the UI. Nothing else. Even AAA games can be improved, it's proven each time a AAA game allows modding. I'm not even speaking about a fully revamped raid/PvP UI like we were used to have in WoW, but only an upgrade of an existing UI with existing data.

Yeah, meaning all I had to do was go to each door, which honestly didn't take long. As for the part about not wanting to wear out your mouse, if you just want story, then you're looking for a kinetic novel, not a sandbox visual novel. This is a sandbox visual novel.

See above. Once you finished the doors, please go to each location with each girl, tell me how much time you needed to complete the "full scan".
Yeah, the mod allowed you to max out everything. I never used that - do you want my current save to check it? I was using only the ability to know, at a glance, that I had done all available content. Key words are "at a glance" and "all available content".
The fact that YOU, among all the people here, try to blame me for wanting to see ALL possible content - i.e. doing a "perfect run" - is somewhat... ironic, don't you think?

Thank you Runey for the clarification. Good to know

I couldn't understand what you were originally saying, you weren't very clear and you were talking about many different things at once. Now you've misunderstood what I said and escalated it. I have no interest in continuing this.

Hi all, I have updated my french translation for the v0.14. It's available on this page.

I didn't have to do that with this one. It's been so long since I did, so I might've but still. Better than messing with a mod for hours. A minute or two tops, and you're rich

Normally requires to modify the game to get console, therefore (kind) the same as a mod.

Easier to open the save with an editor and modify the value directly - unlike RPGM, Ren'Py usually allows way higher numbers, so it's even way less "dangerous" to get one or two billions - just need to stay under the signed 32 bits integer limit.

That's not a "real" problem, just something that otherwise cost ingame time to increase without any real interest. Some games provide a mechanism to greatly multiply money with less ingame time, but with a bit more brain/tactic - see "Depravity" and the Bogdanoff trick, for example. Some others, like "Hero Harem Guild", allow to specifically grind money by selling items, earning big amounts in few ingame time - at the cost of a real RPG-like grinding. Finally, some others allow that through minigames - "The Awakening" and the post office job, for example.

Struggling with money when you have a MC with all these other strong perks is like adding cooldown to crafts... It serves only to make uselessly a given resource rare while it shouldn't be rare initially. It's like grinding some stats/perks in some RPG: annoying, and once done, you don't even watch the odds/numbers that the game give to you - think about lockpicking in most of RPG, for example.

 

[TheDevian]

Yes, that's all accurate (obviously), but I think what the person you're replying to is saying is that it's not a very efficient way to check.
Let's say I'm in the MC's Room, and want to check which Exhibitionism content I've finished for all the girls. In your current system, I have to click on the door, click on 1st floor, click on enter the room, click to remove the text box and enter the room, click on Lin, click to remove the text box, click on "Let's get coffee", click five times to remove the text boxes, click on "something lewd", I then realise I've done everything there, I click "back", then I click "cookies", then click five times to remove the text boxes, and return to the Hotel. That's twenty clicks, I've used up a full time slot on that day, and I've only checked one girl. I'd use almost three full days to check them all (three a day for the first two days, then two time slots on day three), and I've had to click about 160 times, give or take.
In the system from the mod the other guy mentioned, I'd have to click "mod", then "other", then "exhibitionism", then the eight girls' names, for a total of 11 clicks. It'd take about thirty seconds, and wouldn't skip time forward at all. It is indisputably a faster, more efficient way to check if I've completed all the content.

Obviously, you don't need to do as he's suggesting, but what he's saying is "I'd like a quick, at-a-glance method of knowing if I've finished all of a particular type of content" and your reply is "take the time to go through each girls options over multiple in-game days, and you can find out that way" and you're presenting that as an equally efficient option, but it's not.

Except for Autumn, there are only 4 each, people need a way to track that? You don't just do them and get it done? Why would anyone need anything to help with anything on the exhibitionism system? You do them in order, until you have done them all, repeat for fun.
How is that hard?

You can do this, Click the Info "I".
Click the girl's name.
Look at exhibitionism stat... that tells you how many you have done, so unless you are like me, and repeat the hell out of it, in which case you will have them all memorized, and only do them once, this will tell you.

I just don't get why people are having troubles here, none of this is complicated.

 

[freedom.call]

I used to give myself money for a while, I find it more satisfying to start with nothing. I even used lain's mod in the early days, if naming the hotel was available back then it would be The Walkthrough Hotel.

 

[shadowtempered]

You really don't even need a money cheat - just do Kali's story events and you get money. Invest that in the bar, you're now done with any real farming of money. You need what... 400? ish for outfits to get started, but that comes as you're building early stats anyways. It's only a handful of story events in, so it forces you to hold off on buying some outfits asap but since you have to get those stats up to give the outfit it kinda balances out anyways.

My newest save was this way - by the time I even got to story related purchases that are expensive, I had already remade the money invested and then some, so buying the extra "slaves" (trying to avoid spoilers) wasn't even an issue.

First time I played this, I didn't really want to grind, which I later learned wouldn't be that much to do anyway, but considering my impatience, I gave myself a wad of cash and bought everything Day 0 that I was able to get.

I blame on the game Man of the House to be honest. Grinding on that game sucked. So I coded in a fuck ton of cash, bought all of the hotel stuff, everything on the computer and after that, just enjoyed the game without having to worry about money without having whatever type of grind to worry about.

Just the way I like doing things. Maybe before we get the next big update I'll try it without.

We'll see. No promises though. Teaching an old dog a new trick, or habit, he ain't going to want to do.
