I am against it. The incentive to complete the (hard) challenge is diminished if cheating is available.

If some people want to cheat, it's that they want to trivialize difficulty, maybe in order to have a kind of immersive hentai portfolio. This part of the player base is the one that will try easy mode to begin with.

Bearing this compromise, I'd like players to enjoy the original game experience and feel rewarded at the end.
I prefer the management part of the game and dislike the combat. That's what I use the cheat menu for. I'm not looking for an easy time with slave obedience, but I don't want to deal with the combat mechanics because I don't find them interesting or fun. But that's just my two cents as a player.

I might need a memory refresh but doesn't the cheat menu make nothing to make Combat easier anyway?

There's an option to be invulnerable in combat, but it only affects your health. You still need weapons and to increase your gladiator(?) skill to beat most enemies. It's possible to get stuck in a fight where you can't hit hard enough to win and can't lose because of the cheat.

I believe normal mode should still force you to do combat if you want combat related rewards. It's still entirely optional so that's not a good reason to make cheating available.

But easy mode combat should be piss easy compared to what it is. I'm talking being able to win against scarry mobs by spamming simple offense, even with mediocre stats. That would mitigate the need for cheating to begin with, in your use case, right?

Honestly, I only brought it up as a suggestion. Combat is fine - I just personally find it boring. I played story mode Johny when 2.2 came out and got pretty good at the game on normal difficulty. I could see people being turned off by the game if they lose every fight because they don't check the coliseum for learning special moves. It's been a while since I started a new game, but I don't remember any indication that you could learn them or that it would make fights easier.

I went back to automatic1111 and started back on my set of girls. Just finished number 20. I'm still trying out different options, but at least the eyes are better.

Can we add a mechanism that allows the assistant to masturbate? Every time in the game, the assistant restrains his extremely high sexual desire and does not masturbate, which is a bit strange.;)

I think adding assistant masturbation can not only make the game more interesting, but also make the assistant's interaction richer.

I'm pretty sure I am heading the right direction too.
However, doing this on Windows+AMD is becoming unbearably painful for me due to the slowness of the generation.
I assume, NVidia card could save me magnitudes of time on generation.
So I am afraid, I'll have to come back to this once I get an Nvidia, which I could do in a couple of months, when 5000 series drops and hopefully their prices aren't too high.

I think your girls look good, but I hear you about slow generating time with AMD.

I like these two the most:

It looks the most in-line with existing backgrounds, and with the best of original slaves. And they look cool! :cool:

Try this:

Or open up the CMD.exe and try running the command sfc /scannow

hey, so it's been a while since i bothered looking at this game, but i have a few questions if someone is willing to answer them?

1. is the MC a male of can they be futa? i ask mainly because this game is probably the closest we've ever come to a SlaveMaker analogue, and in SM3 i play a futa character. just curious, mostly. i see the male protagonist tag, but a surprising amount of games i've played just don't include futa MC tags.

2. how is the pregnancy in this game? is it a lot like SM3 or is it more scripted (only happens during certain parts)?

3. i see the scat tag, is it avoidable? along with urination?

4. i also see the incest tag. is that a single scene in the game or is it more like older breeding games, where i could impregnate a slave, they give birth, some BS reason for that child growing up super fast later and i can breed that one too?

5. lastly, the bestiality tag. is it avoidable? and can whatever animals that fuck my slaves - i assume - impregnate the slaves? i'm guessing it's possible because i saw the fantasy tag, but could someone elucidate?

Quick answers while will I'm passing by:

1) MC is just male. No futa. Slave Maker was awesome, one of the first game I've ever played!

2) It's well simulated, with ovulation cycles. But child birth doesn't happen (still born and stolen from you, it's a lore thing). Many people complained about it over the years but no one did anything about it either ^^

3) entirely avoidable, don't click the wrong lesson or pick an interested client.

4) A single slave is the sister of the MC, depending on who you pick.

5) Beastiality is also entirely avoidable, just don't missclick. Inter-species pregnancy is not a thing, but parasites like in Alien are.

thanks for answering, i think i'll stick with SM for now. here's hoping some god amongst men decides to remake it in a modern engine. i pray for it every day.

1. is the MC a male of can they be futa?
I had an idea to add futa and maybe even girl, who pretend that she is a male to be in guild. But now totally wasting time in ComfyUI and in alternate web UI build. Still have some problems with applying clothes on naked body. For example, bikini top laces partially removing hair (girl have hair in braids). Sure I can use Gimp and copy part of textures from naked body picture and fix this problem, but it will help in current case only. Maybe need to apply multiple masks and different nodes routes, to work with specific parts of image and combine it together in the end. Still need to learn a lot about work with neural network. Also tried to strip one girl from internet, but could only handle with top part of breasts (+ nipples visible) and pussy. With belly textures replacement starting problems: not a similar to near parts of skin, or applying alternate peace of dress textures. I guess the best start is to make full naked model without hair (just test one of haircuts to understand, if face is good enough), after that apply different face emotions, clothes and haircuts after (or just apply one of them to whole batch). Another problem is - I damn in love in one of girls and she deserve to be as one of characters in brand new game, not just one of many slaves. The pure perfection in my vision, which took many time (days) to pay attentin for every detail. With girls from internet I didn't care much, so here is a real dilemma. The best way is to generate multiple girls, choose one and just apply clothes (with IPAdapter) to her without spending a week for one girl. This is the only way to make many good replacements in short time. But first of all need to handle with few issues about generation of images, since I can't calm down until I solve them. After that gonna finish the last 2 of 12 animated MCs profiles and upload pack with them + multiple backgrounds instead of 3. To do that, will need to download this game again, since in my game files is too many changes applied, including new strapon item and it have no practical use yet.

Just69Joker great job, please, keep on it!
I dream of one day playing this game with a perfect set of clean images / matching characters.
And I believe this can be achieved, as long as people can figure out some clean workflow to dress characters up, while keeping the extra fingers to minimum.

Attaching a small treat (I had to manually fix eyes and fingers, not ideal, but I think the character looks really good still).
Trying to impove the workflow to create at least single clean character.

I feel like there's something wrong with moodlets in the version I downloaded. I always start renting an apartment (Serpis quarter because silk daddy) and set standard of living to Basic on the very first day, but it's 6th day already and I still have the "decrepit hovel" and "every penny" moodlets and my slaver is depressed. Is this expected behavior?

Is there some kind of debug menu maybe?

UPD just noticed: also both "clothes are very impractical" and "very comfortable clothes" at the same time. Something's going on...

Nope, it was v2.3 from the top post.
But I've just downloaded the latest game base from master-ia-patch, rebuilt the qsp file and the problem is still there.
Should be easy to reproduce: just start a new game, rent an apartment, (optionally) raise your living standard and let a few days pass. The negative moodlets aren't going anywhere.
