How can I force a custom character to appear? I made one, but she's not showing up.
dialogs depend of the places, right?


Let's try this step by step.

1) Open the game.
2) Access the official MOD TOOLS
3) Read what is written on the "Intro" tab

4) download the template.gd from the link indicated on the "Intro" tab
5) copy the template file and call it test.gd (do not edit it yet!)
6) create a character and save it as test.pechar (leave the spawn location of stage 0 at the bar for your first test)

7) place both files in the folder \mods\characters

Example location for Windows 10:

C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Porn Empire\mods\characters
8) Test if the character shows up in the game world at the bar (default location).

9) Start creating custom conversations by editing the provided template.gd with Notepad++ or directly inside the free Godot software.

10) For each conversation step in the .gd file define a corresponding spawn location for that stage in the .pechar file


How do you know where the character spawns?

The conversation step 0 in the test.gd file corresponds to the Spawn location stage 0 in the test.pechar

By default if you do not set a different spawn location all custom characters appear in the bar because this was set as default location in the .pechar

The conversation step 1 in the test.gd file corresponds to the Spawn location stage 1 in the test.pechar.

This means if you want you can set a different spawn location for step 1 of the conversation.

In the test.pechar file you can set up to 10 stages that correspond to 10 possible conversation steps.

Conversation step 0 - 9
takes place at
Spawn Location Stage 0-9

-> The Spawn location is set in the .pechar
-> The dialogue that happens is set in the .gd
So if you want you can make the character spawn at a different location whenever a step of the conversation is over.

To test this it may help to start with something simple.

Example:

Conversation step 0 in test.gd takes place at the "Bar" in stage 0 set in test.pechar Spawn Location

Conversation step 1 in test.gd takes place at the "Beach" in stage 1 set in the test.pechar Spawn Location

Conversation step 2 in the test.gd takes place at the "Gym" in stage 2 set in the test.pechar Spawn Location

Why does my custom character still not show up in the world?

Make sure you used the same name for the .gd and .pechar file

Proper examples:

test.gd
test.pechar

test_v1001.gd
test_v1001.pechar

eva.gd
eva.pechar

The following will not work because of typos:

testv1001.gd
test_v1001.pechar

eva.gd
ewa.pechar
Additional Notes:

1) I found it helpful to have both the .gd and the .pechar file open at the same time.
Whenever I finished one step of the conversation in the .gd file I would make sure to update the spawn location in the .pechar file.

2) Start with a very basic conversation first and test if that works.


3) If the game crashes check the error log at AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Porn Empire\logs
or
Write the code directly inside of Godot to get real time feedback about syntax errors.

Could someone post the link for the example dialog that is in the game? clicking the one in the game doesn't work nor does it copy to clip board.
thanks in advance

The in-game link on the info tab of version v0797c was working for me on windows 10.

Why are cam girls always furious when I play? am I doing something wrong?
They systematically start as furious, but will become happy eventually, even if you take 50 or so percent from their earnings, if they make high enough earnings.

As far as I know, for that, you need a good network system, with good webadmin support, but what works above all is to choose the "camgirl earnings are 30% higher" bonus for the online manager. Also, now that you can have all camgirls as models, high fame seems to also help.

template.gd
Thanks
I'm using windows 10, and v0797c doesn't work for me.
It might have to do with what browser it is targeting.
I would hoped he just targeted the default which should have opened up chrome.
But maybe its targeting edge directly or something.
I have edge disabled for security reasons.

If you create a character and export it then import it after restarting it has issues.
The preferences will not be correct and if you click any of them on the right side they all jump to 0 and will not come off it.
Also the spawn locations are not being loaded from the file as well.
I was importing it because I was trying to find why a character wasn't showing up where they should at all.

Is it possible to bring someone in as both staff and whore?
Never mind figured it out on my own.
It will simply set them to which ever is last in commands.

How exactly can you make sure the tags Home, Sport, Massage, Hospital, School, Office are added to the scene?

Example:
I wanted to create a website for the tag office.
Scenes are shot in the studio in the office background.
Models have been assigned the outfit category Business.

Still the tag does not seem to show up in scenes and I am not able upload anything to that site.


To get the cosplay tag all that is needed is to use the outfit category Cosplay.
Has anyone managed to create web sites and upload scenes for Home, Sport, Massage, Hospital, School, Office?

seriously cant believe there isn't a nun (and dirty nun) cosplay, with random girls spawning at that church yet...

and is there a way to convert staff to performers that I missed? Some of the hottest girls I encounter are staff.

Haven't actually checked but i would assume that those are just related to paying the 1k to change the background scenery of your studio to whichever one you want.

Not that i've seen. You can make them a gf and do non-filmed scenes with them. But as far as I know once they retire from the biz (or start as staff) there's no going back.

I did pay pay 1k to change the background.

Bug 1 (repeatable outcome)

I tried it once again during a test production with 1k Studio background change
Scene type: Solo
Theme: School
Location: Library
outfit category: School

The scene did not get any school tags.

Bug 3 (consistent)

Theme: School
Location: Training Room

Theme: School
Location: Library

Show the same preview image and when checking the production both are shot in the Library.

Based on those tests I wonder if the Studio Theme tags for scenes are not yet fully implemented for Studio production shoots?

There was in the previous release but they were removed in the current patch (I think). The nuns worked fine but random girls gave a ctd.

Yeah, if i import again the character after some changes, a lot of info simply resets.

About the locations, i had a similar problem, but i managed to "fix". In some locations the custom characters spawn only one at time, if you dont finish the step of that character that show up the other ones designed to that location will not appear. Its like a order line.

Maybe it is not your case, but if you're talking about the characters doesnt show on the locations after some steps, check the gd file, sometimes by mistake i put {"finished":true} to end a single step and the entire script ends (obviously).

The photo studio is literally only used for photomodel contracts currently. Honestly I don't see it as being useful at all. Especially in the early game. The contracts require a large variety of (often) higher level girls (6-8+) and the lower level contracts seem few and far between. Some sort of system to not immediately start giving you photomodel contracts that require 9 level 8 girls the moment you hit rep 3 would be awesome. I tend to get far more contracts I have absolutely no hope of completing (and can't cancel or at least hide which would be great) than I do photomodel contracts I can actually do. I would recommend avoiding them as they currently stand. Its just a waste of resources in the earlier game. Focus on camgirls and regular girls. If you turn off the contract limit they can be good in the later game once you have plenty of money to contract a wide variety of girls but honestly even then you're more doing it for the reputation gain. I don't see most of the girls actually paying for their contracts in income. It tends to be either a 0 sum game or a net loss. The photomodel agency is also a complete waste of your agency points. You can't use the girls without contracting them and agency girls charge extra to contract. At best its a one off insanely expensive (resource wise) recruiting tool for a photomodel girl. Since there's no way that i've seen anyway to get offered new girls from an agency if you get offered a completely useless girl then she's just kinda there and you can't do anything with her.
