Girls with Photomodel traits need to be in contract to be assigned in Photo Studio.
thanks, also can i somehow make money of photostudio other way than contract work?
might be a bug, i thought it supposed to work like camshows, bringing you passive income, but i have 0 in Financial Data chart

Bug in 0.799D (latest): Bank no longer gives any interest at all, no matter what you level of rapport is with the manager.
Suggestion for new buyable perks (at character creation) or even for random NPCs:
+ Wolf of Wall Street: MC only. Gain random +5 to +10% interest on savings.
+ KungFu Master: MC Only. Automatically win any fight scenes regardless of Fitness stat, and impress those around you when you do (+25 relationship to witnesses). Better at recruiting from the gym.
+ Trust Fund: MC Only. An alternate to the wealth start, player receives a flat $5000 at the end of every month.
+ Sex God/Goddess: +50 to sex skill stat, can go over 100 (to 150). Partners cum really fast when over 100.
- Just Over It: Double happiness loss from doing sex scenes.
+/- Mature: Double fatigue loss from sex, however MC reaches orgasm much slower, too. MC must be over 35 or have MILF to take this.
- No Regerts: Your poor tattoo choices makes the audience wince, permanent -20 to popularity.
+ Yakuza Artist: Your amazing tattoos boost your Alt & Goth scenes +10%.
+ Fire Hose: Male only. +20% fame & income from scenes with Facial shots.
+/- Kinda Creepy: Any porn done in Goth attire gains +20% fame & income, all other scenes lose 20%.
+/- Sweetheart: Female only. As a CamGirl, she charms audiences for +25% income, but they also become jealous and she loses 50% of her CamGirl income for 2 weeks any time anything other than a Solo Sex Scene of her gets published.
+/- C-List Actor/Actress: Didn't quite make the cut in Hollywood, now desperate for money. Gains a permanent +50 to popularity but also comes with one random permanent addiction that can not be cured.
+ Ahego Queen: Female only, and only applies during manual sex scenes. If she cums you get +10% fame and income from the scene.
+/- Jock/Cheerleader: Permanent +25 to Fitness, -25 to Intellect. +10% to fame and income if wearing Sports Attire during scenes, or for scenes done in the Locker Room (+15% if both).
+/- Cute Accent: Can't be from English speaking country. +10% income as Cam Girl, but each week as her Popularity rises there chance INS will come after her. Lawyer skill check to keep her from getting deported. This only happens once.
+/- Daddy Issues: Female only. No happiness loss from sex scenes if MC is 20+ years older than her. +10 Happiness if he's also bald.
+/- Bi-Polar: Happiness will randomly go up down up 30 points per day for no real reason.
+/- Fashion Whore: Each week has a 25% to unlock one random outfit but at 200% the normal price.

May i ask what exactly you played in that game?
Because i have reported a similiar bug a while ago but it is still in the free version i play from this thread (0.798d i think).
The bug i discovered there was that you get no interest if you do not have a website. Once you set up a website you get bank interest. But since some starting MC perks disallow a website maybe you played such a character in that game?
sorry must have missed or forgot about that report. nice detective work tho.
i fucked up and put the code for earning interests inside a block where it's checking for website.
so yea no network, no interests. fixed now.

not yet, dev2
open network, dont need any websites to get around
No missing clothes just wanted to have more skimpy swimsuit and casual & Business clothes more revealing
Someone else is the stable version of the game slow in a certain way? in version 0.798 dev2 it works perfect without delays when opening the map and going anywhere in the stable version it is worse in a certain way
How many drugs does it take to make your girls to have 100% like 100% chemistry ?
I grabbed the new dev version from the patreon last week and am doing another playthrough. I hate using cheats and try to play a pure game, except I max out my stats at the start (raising your stats is a real grind in this game IMO). Notes:
Stats: I really like how the percents can go over 100. My CHA is 108. I don't know why, but I like that people have "Exceptional" stats in this game.
STDs Not Good: STDs still out of control. I hate using a condom, but that's what I'm doing. STDs will kill your company in the early going. My company is currently rank 3 and I literally can not afford to cure my models ($55,000!). The point values in the perk system need to be adjusted IMO. I have to take 15 points of disadvantages just to play without STDs? The disadvantages were so bad that I'd rather not play than take them, so I'm still suffering through the STD epidemic.
Events: I think the game needs more events. They don't happen often, and I get the same few over and over. I want ore stuff that happens at your house. I'd love more in-company drama - employees that hate each other, employees that are in love with you, rival companies sending in spies/saboteurs, that kind of thing. As of right now, I get the cops showing up (I hate the rude dialogue options in that one, by the way), the occasional guy breaking in, and the stalker event.
Recruiting at Night: I shoot a scene during the day and edit, and then go recruiting at night - which limits me to the hospital and the alley. I think it would be cool if you could go to the park at night - where shady events no doubt take place. Drug deals, some random guy digging a hole in the ground, a bunch of homeless dudes gathered around a trash can with a fire in it, that kind of thing.
Rare Preggos: It is too hard to find preggos. I started a preggo website, and for some reason the site immediately wanted 10 scenes. I swear to god i went to the hospital every day for 8 hours to recruit preggos. Over the course of a MONTH I pulled 8, only successfully got 3 to agree to do a scene through the interviews. It's pretty much impossible to recruit the number of preggos you need for a niche site. I guess if you took fertility drugs and impregnated as many models as possible you could do it, but the STD situation will end up putting you on the shelf and then you're not filming any scenes for weeks at a time.
Null: I think my character is addicted to cocaine. When I set up a scene with him, it says "Null is an addict." It doesn't say his name, it refers to him as "Null". Just thought I'd point it out.
Crabby Camgirls: In previous version of the game, I couldn't get camgirls to work. I've got them going now, and it really helps a lot. They all are "slightly annoyed" though. I move the slider around and even if I allow them to keep almost all of the money they generate, they're not happy. Is this a bug or are camgirls just meant to be crabby?
Overall: Overall the game is great. I am excited at the prospect of future tweaks and additions, especially if you flesh out more storyline-type stuff. I think the rivalries can be explored more. This one company keeps fucking with me, and while I can see their top stars, I wish I could learn more about their owner, their top models (maybe even watch their most famous scenes), and screw them over they way they're screwing me over.
I know a lot of us have played Sim Bro, which is somewhat similar to this game in some ways. One feature from that game that I liked was the combats - you could bring your crew around the city and get into fights, and through those fights you could make money, gain XP, and even recruit people. I hated the rape element of that game and definitely don't want to see that in Porn Empire, but the idea of getting into a rumble with a rival porn company cracks me up and would give this game a bit more variety.
I'd also like to see more graphical updates - shooting a huge load, and especially making models look wet/sweaty. I could be wrong, but I don't think it would be too hard to add a wet shine to existing skin. Wet hair might work too, right? I also love the "x ray" suggestion someone made in this thread.
It's a great game! Thanks, and I look forward to further updates!

one time to boost the chemistry.
final chem score is more than just drugs tho, traits, mood, compatibility and so on.
i've changed stds mechanics a bit in the upcoming build.
if you neglect tests epidemic threat will rise. more chicks, more frequent the tests need to be.
if you have medical advisor same shit. you can have low lvl one at the start when you dont have many chicks, but later you will have to lvl advisor up.
if epidemic score goes beyond (yet undetermined) point models will start getting stds. very costly to fix then.
havent tested yet but i might also tie it to the number of movies you shoot. more movies, more chance of spreading stds, so epidemic threat rises.
so end goal is lvl 10 medical advisor with weekly checkups. but i think even that shouldnt be enough for 5 movies per week form 9 studios. maybe some new manager perks to offset it, maybe make use of all those nurses you fuck, we'll see...

agree with more events
----
well if it wanted 10 preggo scenes then something aint right. pretty sure niche sites are set to not require as many scenes as general ones. i'll check.
---
each camgirl has a figure in her head which she want to make based on her popularity, stats and so on.
so let's say she wants $1000, you have to provide it that for keeping her happy.
now you can employ marketing staff, have better or more webadmins, or lower your cut to the minimum.
---
i'm playing around with combat mechanics but most likely wont include them in PE. i think tycoon releated stuff is the way to go.
feel like hacking goblins and bandits is better suited for some other game.
more rival company things are coming in the future
you have a link to win version one or two pages back.
