Hello, I have a question, have you also changed the places to train girls because I want to do a mission with courtesans and no, this training is not showing up? Can anyone help? sorry for my poor english
No, I have not changed that. Courtesan training is not available at the beginning. You have to have a certain rank and fulfill certain requirements (I don't remember which ones) to start the quest for it.

Nofretete was also considered the most beautiful women of her time aswell...
I get it that Romans preffered lighter skin tones but there are several remarks in history saying that especially Egypt royality was among the most beautiful women of their time, Persia also has some records about their women being considered beautiful in differnt eras.
The game likely plays dureing Cesar or Augustus times I'd assume so Alexanders era would be over already but the romans fascination with the conqueror should still be strong
Well, Nofretete lived 1300 BC, that's long before the Romans mattered in the Mediterranean. I'm not denying that she was considered to be beautiful by her contemporaries.

Since Ludus Master plays in the Roman Era, don't know if Roman Republic or Roman Empire, but I guess the latter, I'd suggest to take the Roman perspective on things.

Cleopatra lived ~50 BC, but her dynasty was of Greek/Macedon origin and they remained Greek/Macedon. Egypt also had enclaves of Greek settlers, including Greek Temples since the Macedon conquest ~300 BC. So Cleopatra most likely had a Greek phenotype, not an Egyptian one. Most historians would agree, that they (the Ptolemaic dynasty) adopted Egyptian customs for the public in order to increase acceptance for their rule, but behind closed doors they remained Greek/Macedon culturally.
But for the Romans of course the Egyptian culture was considered to be way more exotic than the Greek/Macedon one. So Cleopatra also put on a show of exoticness, to impress Julius Caesar and later also Marcus Antonius (Marc Antony). She knew how to seduce powerful men after all in order to secure her semi-independent rule over Egypt, despite the Roman conquest.

Anyway, it's fun discussing these histopric topics, but we are getting off-topic here and might derail the thread. In the end velesk needs to decide how he wants to implement new slave backgrounds.

I guess, we agree, Evangelion-01 that we both would appreaciate more diverse slave backgrounds, than just the 3 being present in the game for now.

We just made some suggestions. I think the easiest way would be to add new slave backgrounds as compromises of the existing ones. Like this we can have more diversity and not much needs to be changed actually (the 3 main attributes: beauty, intelligence, vitality could stay as they are like this).

velesk can you tell me what models/engine you're using for these 3D graphics/characters? I've seen these kind of "lower fidelity" models in several games, even in some old flash games and I've never really understood where they came from. Curious to learn! Thanks

I have my own tools (modeling and animation). The base model came from skyrim high poly mod, but it was so heavily modified, that it no longer has any resemblance to it. In general, female models have around 9k verticles and 17k faces.

Do tools work for slaves? Cause I did a short test (5 days) of one Nubian slave (newly bought, dunno if better stats matter), I assigned her for one period each of clay and stone gathering. For the first two days the hand cart is in my inventory and the last three days I deposited the hand cart to the slave's inventory. Result was disappointing as I only got 1-2 clay and 1 stone each day with or without the hand cart in either my own or my slave's inventory.

Usually almost immediately in the first minutes after the next release there are comments asking to post a new cheat code, and I think most of these questioners don't even suspect that they even have some kind of inventory :). Your research really deserves respect, and I join the question - why did Velesk make such an ineffective handcart :) ...

But on the other hand - if you don't have a cart at all, you can collect 2 units of clay, and with a cart - 3 units. Your efficiency increases by 50%. Well, not Henry Ford's conveyor, but quite a result... And yes, before the birth of Henry Ford from the time of the events described in the game there were still at least 1500 years left...

Some do, some don't. When they do, it is hinted in the description, like for the hand mill. And in that case, you have to have it in your inventory. Servant's inventory is only for changing clothes/armor/weapons.

Slums are involved during training of Cornelia, if you decide not to keep her. She will move up there as a public servant. Also, if your's wife perversion is high enough, there are some events in slums with her.
