RPGM Partial [思い出し笑い] Violated Princess (A VH-Game Spin off)

[dazedanon]

I've done everything you said, but I keep getting errors saying I'm missing a picture when I try to save. I would try to resolve it. but my Japanese is terrible.

Missing picture makes me thing you aren't on the latest version and are missing pictures.

Good eye. Never thought about it before, but this lines up with what I recall about VH's development - translation efforts started around 2009-10 (I only found the game itself around 2012-13, when they still had their old wiki up) but from what I've heard, actual development on the game began a couple years before that among anons on 2ch - as far back as 2005 if I'm not mistaken. And guess what, Black Cat's manga run ended in '04 while its anime came out in '05, while To-Love Ru ended in '09 and To-Love Ru Darkness (the spinoff which focuses on Yami/Darkness) started in '10.

I'm not privy to the details (and I would be astonished if the Japanese archives from 15+ years ago are still around & viewable in any capacity) but I believe Omoidashiwara must've gotten involved around that time. He couldn't have created Serena that long after the start of VH's development since she was the second playable character, the one who got the second-most content after Nanako, and while it's been ages since I touched anything VH I'm reasonably certain the Katteban version which he made to focus on her exclusively was already around by '12-13. Yeah, the timeline does definitely check out now that I think about it. I guess the blonde hair + red eyes combo on a loli was a real winner for him.

I will say that's pretty impressive. This means the dude's been working on something involving Serena for 15+ years straight at this point, almost 20 even (VH from a little after 2005 probably, and then the last Katteban update seems to have been in around 2018 - would make sense if he switched to developing VP around then) and has gotten to make a tidy profit off of it at long last, if the sales figures on DLsite are to be believed. He's earned every yen for sure, the pixel art in this game is among the best I've ever seen as far as indies go, and while the story & characterization isn't the most sophisticated in the world I think he did a pretty good job overall of making Serena likable.

I distinctly recall that in VH she was much more of a stereotypical haughty aristocrat who was condescending/dismissive toward commoners (including Nanako on the very rare occasion that they'd interact) even if she wasn't being actively malicious, probably so the player wouldn't feel too bad for tossing her into H-scenes, so VP Serena came across as a pleasant surprise. This consistently polite, good-natured and non-classist girl got me to root for her and to try to get her to the finish line a pure virgin.

I'm sure Omoidashiwara is going to want to take a break after this, probably work on a new game or two before returning to Serena's adventures, and I wouldn't blame him one bit for it considering how much work he's put into VP. But I hope he does come back 'round to make a VP2 at some point - I'd love to be able to have greater interactions with Nanako & the other VH heroines beyond the tutorial section next time. It'd be neat to have a wholesome love interest with more of a backbone than Tim too, whether he be a 'Prince Charming' sort like the noble boy she could bang in VH (and can actually be seen dating in a cameo on a Nanako playthrough), someone from the Grazia Bank also in VH, a lowborn serving boy from her household, etc. Because right now, the 'consensual sex' tab in Serena's diary just seems like a bad joke.

Failing that, some DLC to finish & implement unfinished content like the corruption system, at least, would be nice. I miss the open world-liness of VH and it's a pity that VP only allows the player to more freely roam its maps so late into the game (after getting the quest for 10k it seems) but I 100% understand why Omoidashiwara went in that direction, a narrower but more polished experience with an actual ending(s) always trumps a bloated & unfinished (arguably un-finishable even, whether by one dev or an entire revolving-door team of them) one in my book. Better to be narrow as a puddle but as deep as the ocean than the other way around.

he's not gonna finish the corruption thing lol

VP was definitely rushed. and in my opinion the character of serena in the game is pretty flat. without the game mechanics of corruption, her character doesn't really change. she never likes sex, it's always rape - that's not character development. VP is just a VN with extra steps, nothing like the open world of VH and sort of falsely advertised in that sense.

However, it's not like VH is perfect. It's unique, but a finished, polished, more linear game has obvious perks. The flip side is there's only one set of (flawed, imo) hands calling the shots for game development. It's good that this guy made a TON of money on VP but I think many VH fans are justified in being a bit sour.

I'm using the 1.03 version from the gofile download it says I'm missing some menu file in img/pictures/エロステータス folder.

As someone who shilled for VP constantly to my friends in the H circle I feel bad because this game lacks a TON of polish that it needs to really feel like a "Violated" game, Serena definitely doesn't have the same appeal as she did in VH because of the corruption and it really sucks.

has made a bunch of manual edits to the MTL on Github. Since I don't have a thread to note contributors anymore I'm going to mention it here.

Also if anyone has issues such as missing images, I recommend you double check you applied all the patches I listed above. If you still have issues come and report them on the Discord with screenshots since its hard for me to keep track of everything here in the forums.

This would have made it the ultimate game to me, a game where she becomes more and more corrupted and loves what happens to her.

Well, at least some of the work's already been done, if some of the unimplemented stuff in the game files are any indicator. And while it's certainly true that he's made a pretty penny already, having a lot of money rarely keeps people from wanting to make even more. Hopefully that also applies here and it's not like he objects to finishing the corruption content (be it as DLC or a free patch like the recollection system) on principle because 'oh it doesn't fit my vision for Serena's character' or w/e else.

Tbf, while I do like the idea of corruption content and have said as much just now, I see why it might not work in the context of VP's plotline. Serena's sole motivation for going through the game & putting up with all the crap she gets even on a virgin run is to find her unicorn before he's sold off (and probably chopped up into her world's equivalent of Chinese folk medicine made from rhino horns), which lends itself to a high-speed, high-pressure story where little time can be allowed to pass in-universe and she's always got to move forward ASAP. Likely not enough time for her to really break down and come to enjoy sex without a bad end. VH's open-endedness and her lower-pressure goal in that one (finding some lost heirloom, which she can't even get close to accomplishing unlike Nanako's Hot Spring Town storyline IIRC) gave her lots more time to screw around, figuratively & literally, and becoming a sex addict wouldn't necessarily be an insurmountable detriment. A lower-stakes storyline with natural breathing room like that is definitely another thing I'd like to see if VP2 ever gets made.

Oh yes, it's definitely a matter of trade-offs IMO. I'm not privy to the entirety of what went on behind the scenes at VH but even just what I've heard about its development over the years has painted a fascinating picture. To my understanding development on that game was a revolving door where devs just came, contributed & went according to their interests. It would certainly explain why there's a ton of content but it's all over the place; why the most finished, bug-free questline is Nanako's starting one in Hot Spring Town; and why Serena hardly ever interacts with the other heroines in even the smallest ways (also unlike Nanako) despite having the 2nd most content. There's entire folders' worth of unimplemented stuff in the VH files, like that Gaijin-B folder that seems to imply losing to Bloody Lilly was going to open up far more content than just a bad end. Unfortunately we'll probably not see anything like VH again anytime soon (or ever). I do wish some balance between it & VP's design philosophies could be struck, but Idk if any of the old devs other than Omoidashiwara is even still around to attempt such a thing.

I think you need to get caught by the ropers over and over during the roper escape sequence you get the first time you get defeated by ropers. The room gets more fleshy each time you get caught.

Oh, I haven't downloaded ver 1.03 yet. Sorry but probably not.

 

[Mecha crabbit]

(soryy for my mediocre english) hi and sorry for asking but how/where i get my breast milked in the game(from what i see you can sell your breast milk in game)

 

[RiM]

For gallery to work you need to get 9.16 vers (its on anime-sharing) and apply 3 patches (2 from ci-en) and the one posted on the github. Applying patches on a fresh 1.0 just crushes the game or prompts missing picture.

 

[linranni]

does someone have a save file that has complete recollection? I used the patch to bring up the recollection room but everything didn't open

 

[kai123555]

could someone send me a copy of the game i keep getting load errors and some files from me zip are corrupted or something

 

[ratiug]

[Badrama]

Just a heads up I've updated the patch to the latest version of the game that has the bug fixes and recollection.

You have to do the following to get it working.
1. DL latest version of the game. (Has new images so old versions wont work)
2. Apply the

3. Apply the English Images from DLSite TL (Attached)
4. Apply the

(It only has new images)
5. Apply the

There might be a few steps you can skip here but these are the steps I had to follow to avoid any errors and get everything working on the latest.

Followed this step by step (although with the new 0918 patch instead of 0916) and I got a fail to load picture after opening the status menu and closing it for the very first time.

0918 alone on top of 1.03 (so jap version) shows a difficulty setting choice starting a new game, which wasn't displayed after using all these patches.

Edit: 0918 + 1.03 normal version gives me gallery error anyways.
