QSP Jack-o-Nine-Tails [v2.3] [ImperatorAugustusTertius / qwertyu12359]

As u guys might know I've been making AI image pack for this game. But I greatly misjudged this game compatibility with AI, specifically 3 age categories: loli, young and milf.

It sounds super ez on paper, but in reality AI produces girls of all ages and to fit them into those 3 separate categories is almost impossible task. It all comes down to anime art and personal conception of age: for example in Japan 16yo high school student looks like 12yo middle school in USA. 12yo should be considered loli right? But then it makes 99% of all anime characters lolis since basically all of them look like 12-14yo kids. This is the main reason why the work is going super slow.

So let me give u an example - meet Shirai Kuroko from To Aru Majutsu no Index anime:

This is a game ready art, so I want to ask u guys:

Is Shirai Kuroko a loli? Should she be put into loli category or young category? If she is a loli, should ALL anime characters be put into loli category as well then?

I'd say 'young'.
I wouldn't be caring about it TOO MUCH, I think it would simply be more diverse and interesting, if some young girls would look lolly-ish and some lollies would look young-ish. Same for the adult/milfs, etc.

Also, you're doing fantastic work, man, please keep it up!

I try going with the idea that categories should be visibly distinguishable, so when u meet a girl outside the city u could tell her age group just by looking. This makes the work a lot harder, but I still believe this approach is the best for this game.

Obviously, the correct way of doing it is to add a hidden age number for each girl in the config. This way it would be possible to add LOTS girls without bothering with age - I would have finished this half a year ago if this was supported by the game. Plus it would be ez to switch categories for each girl simply by changing the config, so some ppl could play with Kuroko as lol, others as young.

Age categories is exactly what makes this super hard and time consuming.

But it what it is, unfortunately. No one will be rewriting how the game handles age bc this would be a ton of work since u need to edit each age check according to the game lore. Meaning instead of categories each event should use age range (for example pregnancy should not be possible for age below 12, some buyers should buy only 12-16yo, some only 14-18, etc.) or some other stats (height for example for races).

The fact is I have like 2k of super nice looking girls and can easily make another 6k, but I can't add them to the game bc they will be between age categories. Instead I struggle with getting at least 200 that will fit the age category perfectly. This is beyond stupid and a complete waste of time, but I don't have any solution to this.

I'm not familiar with the coding, but I don't think it's an extremely difficult feature to implement something that will let the game read the age number of each girl and categorize them based on whatever is decided which age range is which category. I'm not doing the coding though so I can't say.

Yeah, I think aging should be part of the game like that. Free Cities, another game involving sex slaves, includes aging as a game mechanic. Even Slave Maker used it to an extent. I don't know how difficult it would be to add something like that to JONT because I am not a programmer, but it would be so cool to have something like that implemented.

implement something that will let the game read the age number of each girl and categorize them

U don't understand, simply moving categories from file names to config won't change anything - u still gonna have the same categories and the same problem. Instead all those categories should be removed completely and each girl should be treated individually according to her age number. Meaning events will have overlapping age range, so we won't have to divide girls by categories in the first place. But to do this each event/activity should be rewritten, so it's not an ez fix.

Im still trying to figure out age categories, so it's not ready yet

Ok I think I have found a good lols/young reference: it's

. it's a common knowlege that Illya is loli, while Rin is not.
So now I just need to find arts for them both use those as reference, problem solved.

Rin has porn images in the game Slave Maker. She's one of the default characters under the name Tohsaka. Not sure if this is exactly her, but she looks kind of similar. So they're definitely out there.

It is funny, cause illya (18) is older than rin. (17)

Lol, it's basically "she is 300yo, officer!"

Btw FGO says about her "ごくごく普通の小五女子である。" which is translated "She is an ordinary fifth grade girl". Also while looking for arts I found out that she is actually 10yo and only 133cm tall.

that because illy in FGO is from fate/kaleid liner not the original one from fate/stay night where she is 18

The plan is to complete the roadmap (almost done, though it takes a while because things tend to come up spontaneously), and to mitigate some of the difficulty/tediousness that some players recently complained about.

To be transparent though, last I've heard from ImperatorAugustus was 12 days ago, and he has the habit of noticing me when he has to leave for a week or more. It could be just a well-needed break, or something personal came up. He's the only developer left (it's not really my role and Lokplart is on a hiatus), so in the eventuality that he does not come back, the dev' version on the Git might eventually be released as is.

Update: I heard from Imperator However, it's uncertain whether or when he can resume development.

This is about what's left on the Roadmap:

branch) as "stable" is the 21st of august (of this year). Can be pushed a bit further if the game gets updated in the meantime.

Anyone that knows coding and wants to help during these couple of months is welcome (and will be credited). It will be about ensuring the game is ready for a stable release.

Yet she looks the same and is the same height

Recently tried this game, seems like I haven't been able to understand the mechanics well

I tried the tutorial with Helen as it is the easy one, and was able to increase her rating to about C- after which whatever I did nothing worked. The tooltip says that her stamina is too low for her to be able to be sold to many customers.

Today while trying I was able to take her to C+ rating, but in 2 days she fell down to C- with the same thing in the tooltip.

How can we look at her stamina? What to do to boost her stamina? How does the energy and calorie system work I'm still not fully sure. And what parameters or abilities should I be focusing on for this game?

Any help will be appreciated

Let her sleep in a bed roll but not in your bed so she gets decent sleep but doesn't feel spoiled. You can have her practice gymnastics or if her attitude is too poor for that, then you can have her go to school for athletics. Make sure she is not working off more calories than she has to burn. Over the course of a couple days you should see steady gains in her energy levels and she will start to get stronger and have more stamina. Things like dancing, gladiatrix will also build strength and stamina but I would focus on gymnastics and athletics to start. Giving her clothes that can benefit athletics would be a good thing in this situation as well.

For weak characters you can try giving them supplements with their food but you will want to stop giving it to them once they get out of the weakened state. For characters that burn calories too fast due to metabolism, you should use the calculated option to let the game balance their calories based on how much they burn on average. I wouldn't do this unless they have a stated problem with there metabolism though. For now just focus on doing one athletic training a day and making sure she is fed and supplemented with fair sleeping conditions and maybe some clothes that help support physical activity. Things like sneakers can give a bonus to these activities. Never work her energy levels too low. Keep her energy in the green each day. If you put your mouse curser over her state of endurance, it should give you the amount of points she has before going up or down another level. This will help you gage how much she gains each day and how many days you have till her condition improves.

How long does it take for the Julia event to happen? Got patricianed by the pope as Johny in a normal start. But no Julia event after like almost 20 days.
