Ren'Py Lab Rats 2 - Reformulate [v2025 4.0.37]

[Darkmind]

Hey, guys. I've got a couple of questions and hopin' to get answers here.
1) What's the use of +/- max arousal traits? Except for obvious lengthening/shortening of sex scenes.
2) Got a new serum trait called R3D R0535 ("Red Rose"). I feel like the description of its negative aspects is unfinished, and it has really good effects, so it looks like there is some sort of catch. Does anyone know about it? Cause I don't want to accidentally turn all my employees into bimbos or smth.
Thanks in advance and sorry for the mistakes. Not my native language.

1.) Trance is triggered with orgasm, so lowered max arousal is helpful for that. I'm not sure what good increased arousal is besides roleplaying.
2.) Series of cheat traits added with VT-mod. They don't really have negatives other than making everything pathetically easy and spelling errors.

Increased max arousal in theory allows you to push her into sex positions she'd otherwise be resistant to, as arousal lowers resistance.

Practically it's not much use, as in general if the only times you really notice resistance it's actually story-tied, and therefore isn't something you can overcome without hitting a trigger. (And obedience and love also lower resistance to new sex acts, in a more long-lasting fashion.) It made more difference in earlier versions of the game, when the original developer was still working on it, but even then was rarely something that actually mattered.

Hi all!

Is there a way to generate (w/ stable diffusion) profile images for characters? For example when hovering over the character list item in "talk to someone" section (full character image) and on the character page after clicking on the (i) icon (headshot image).

I got SD to work and getting pretty good results, but it's kinda funky to have "old" images there and the new shiny ones when interacting with characters.

So I was always intimidated by all this AI stuff, kinda waited for it to become more noob-friendly. Then saw the guide you guys made and it looked pretty simple even for a dumbass like me, plus I love this game, so said fuck it.
2 hours later, with all that programmers stuff installed and a model downloaded, I launched the game, and genned the first pic.
Literally felt like a caveman starting his own first fire, sounded like it too This shit is soo cool!

(different settings in diff pics, but I tried to stick to cfg 1-2, denoiser 0.5-0.8)

but it doesn't like women over 30 lmao (joke about the wall somewhere here), not matter what I did. Maybe because it doesn't like having "32 years old" in the prompt while having young in the negative, or maybe it's default faces having too many wrinkles...

Unfortunately though, it doesn't respect a lot of settings from the base game, like clothes transparency, chokers and many more. So basically - you can gen a standing picture somewhat and that's it. And it takes a lot of random tinkering, really felt like a monkey pressing random buttons to see what's it gonna be. This shit if far from easy or fast, like they said. Same story with how someone thinks honey select is a 2 week's job and trust me it's not

Still very fucking cool!

But I agree we need a separate thread for this stuff.

(I also kinda suggest to the guys making the AI mod to add another button to quickly switch between base game's Daz model and current gen, to quickly have a check of what it's supposed to look like vs generated one)

This is either
a) model issue - your SD model is not trained on older women, so it does not know how to produce them.
b) insufficient or lacking prompts - adding descriptive synonyms is great for most models. Try "mature woman", "old woman".
IDK what version of the mod you are using, but yesterday i posted a prompt profile on LR2's discord for the current Maswoo's build that handles maturity reasonably well:

Maswoo's GenAI is still in development and a lot of the character states are not being used yet. But they are adding more and more stuff with each version. Like right now, for instance, it only makes prompts for the top visible layer of clothing, so if the girl is wearing an unbuttoned blazer with a bra underneath, only the blazer will be prompted and she'll be topless underneath. This requires the mod to call on different functions than it does now and needs a bit of finagling to achieve.

That's not a bad feature, honestly.

Private student. It means that you are giving her help with her studies. You are the tutor - she is the tutee. One of the strange remnants in English from other languages.

thanks!

by the way I read somewhere that English is very rich in Scandinavian heritage. maybe it's the same -ee that came from the northerners haha... I don't know whether to believe it or not, but "I'm selling it for what I bought it for"

 

[dedios]

Good ..... The 1st say that English is not my mother tongue. and the second to say I do not not get the image generation mod work .. or do not load any model or directly give me error ... and I wondered if someone would be so kind to make a mini tutorial on how to install this mod functionally. Thank you and forgive the inconvenience.

 

[ramvivat]

tell me what is the difference (if there is one) and why is it done?

1 in the core version there is "breeding fascination" which is obtained through Loves Creampies + Loves Bareback Sex
2 in the modification (or not, I can't say for sure) there is a serum trait called Breeding cow

now I prefer to use serum - but when I see a girl who has almost finished the first option - I use the first option.
but maybe I'm losing something by using the first option? maybe I should "process" with serum even those girls who are of the first type?

yes - I have a secret weapon - SAVE+LOAD but nevertheless - it will still be poking like a blind kitten.
when you do not know where to see to see the differences - you may lost time for vain.

In the current version ashley is in a loop of obedience actions happening once per week or at least i think she is.

no idea if or how to get nora to distribute serums to students.

is there another corporations that competes against you? Can they drug girls as well and enslave/breed them too?

Yes, maybe.

maybe yes maybe no - possibly all depends of "Enable NTR" switch in preferences. i do not know.
try enable NTR and see yourself about this haha...


, let's be honest. Penelope - do you think she works on her own? She was set on by competitors.
( and it will be better for you if you start corrupting her from the moment of your first meeting - because then you can persuade her "not to find anything" through seduction and sex. and at first, until you get her home address from her, she will be a big pain in your ass. )

Besides, Candace Hooper (the bimbo we met in the restaurant, Candy) used to work for those competitors - she said that [before she was bimbofied] she used to mix liquids and write something in a notebook. Nora mentioned in the bar about the competitors' main developer who suddenly disappeared. It's possible that because of Candy's loss, the competitors aren't doing so well, as indicated by the folder with the unfinished serum that Nora gave us for revision. In short, you have to follow the plot bit by bit here and there and the overall picture will definitely come together. And even Candy reported what the logo of her former organization looks like and where it is located.

I think that Candy's bimbofication is some kind of "industrial injury" - and she was quietly fired. Or maybe Christopher (her last boyfriend, with whom she came to the restaurant, is a asshole who ditched Ophelia von Frieseur) is related to that organization-competitor of MC. The competitors were really destroyed by the fact that they did not have a team of developers and the owner of the company himself does not have a specialized education - he is just a businessman. He knows how to find points where you can put pressure, but he does not understand what he is selling. Why is he still afloat - has he already gone bankrupt, left without a lead developer? But this can be judged by having facts in hand - alas, I have not come across facts yet (which does not mean that they do not exist - it means that I may have been inattentive)

 

[SDN111]

I had not seen the company logo skit yet but going off the of amount I have seen between various builds it is basically confirmed that Candice was the competitors head researcher (like Stephanie is/was for us) she likely had the original version of the Bimbo serum Stephanie tests on herself done to her before they developed an antidote. Candice's version of the bimbo serum likely was not the same as what was sold for our company to research.

Going into the competitor's financial viability they seemed to be focused on short term effects. Their failures have been longterm serums which need to be stabilized to make worth use. They seem to be a large player that entered the market to make a quick buck and do not really care about anything other than the bottom line. Our character at minimum is at least interested in seeing what he can actually do with the serums.

Man! why these sluts hate incest and threesomes if they not try this?
if you get girl at start you need reshape her minds to love incest and threesomes - and for this you use awfully many time. jeez =)

THERE! THERE!!!!
Now I hope many will understand why I so desperately want to find a way to get Candace back on track. even though she's gotten stupid, she probably still has "inventor's luck".
her problem was that she worked alone - there was no one to bring her back, look at her records and find an antidote to what she poisoned herself with. (by the way, I recently got my own bimbo in the production department haha... she showed up herself. I mean, she violated safety regulations herself and... plus one bimbo in the department. no big deal - I raised her stats back. work experience does not suffer (which is fortunate) during bimbification. (I need to check this point with Candace, suddenly my guess is correct and she has a wealth of experience in development)
if Stephie was alone in the company - after the purchase, she might have also fallen into the same trap that Candace fell into.

....... looked at my freshly baked bimbo in the production department - YYESSS!!!! hallelujah, rejoice girl!!!! after bimbofication of the girl her work experience is not lost!!!!! I so hoped for it!
we need to restore Candy her IFC stats - it should work, i guess. right?
*shrugs* hehe but what coded developer for Candace - who knows... =)

Candace has a written storyline to revert her. I believe it is not fully implemented yet but it exists. It was based on getting enough mastery in bimbo serum, would also give a counter for you using the serum.

Hi!
bureaucratic nightmare - "what is it and what do you eat it with?" roughly describe the meaning of this. does this make the girl make mistakes more often in order to get punished? or is it about something else, then what is it all about? the description is unclear. please explain "on your fingers" whoever can, please. I just don't know what new task to impose on her after the girl's promotion. no, of course, you can hang this task on her without knowledge, but it's better to know than not to know, in my opinion.

Does anyone know what the console command would be to alter the mc dance skill? I put 2 starting points into Focus and now I'm hard capped at 18.

wow possible average jerk off Joe to implement this ? awesome this alone feel LEVEL up!

Just wanted to follow up on my experiment of running a recent Windows build of Lab Rats under Crossover with the AI mod and StableDiffusion being run directly in Mac:

It all works, fairly straightforward. I needed a slight adjustment of the StableDiffusion command line from what the ReadMe suggested, but that was suggested by StableDiffusion itself so it wasn't a concern. (And may be specific to my hardware.) Feels a bit clunky to get running, but it all works once everything is spun up.

What instructions did you use? Couldn't get the game to connect to API while using crossover.

Hi!
Guys, who is more knowledgeable in this matter, tell me how to distinguish a girl with Breeding Fascination (BF-girl, BFG) from a girl who took the "Breeding Cow" trait contained serum (BC-girl, BCG)? A BFG can be easily recognized by 2 items in the menu of the 3rd column. But I have not yet been able to find any distinguishing features for BCG. Maybe you can tell me?

thanks!
