Ren'Py The Headmaster [v0.16.3] [Altos and Herdone]

[Haley Smith]

with a couple of scenes there is how should I say Overlay errors in the image, I'm not sure what causes them but not always, I can look again to see which ones I can find. But since they appear again and again, I think that something is not properly programmed at this point. because the rest of the scene runs through neatly. Definitely with Sally in the shower.

Which version of the game are you playing?
Are you talking image stutter or full falling apart?

Development Update

Hi guys,

Hopefully, everyone has now had the chance to play the update and I hope you all enjoyed the new content and animations. I'll avoid any spoilers here, just in case people are still playing through.

As usual, after the update was finished I took a couple of days off to relax and then spent a week or so keeping myself up to date with the constant improvements to the software I use. I’ve been continuing to make improvements with the new animation method and I’ve also figured out a way to add PNG images onto a transparent in-game panel. I can now easily add any 2D image I want (for example signs and posters) directly into the studio rather than having to add things in afterwards using photoshop. This will mean I can start to create much better environments and backgrounds. I've also been working on a little tutorial video on how our game is made and I hope to post that here soon. I want to aim for a quick turnaround with the next update though so it's time to get back to working directly on new content.

So Chapter 2 is now fairly well established. I will continue adding little class, patrol and sports events as we move on but the base game is there and now it's time to switch focus to the punishment system mini-game as well as levelling up specific girls with their own in-depth story arcs. This means it's nearly time for a very important poll. We need to decide the order in which the new batch of girls will have their punishment systems fleshed out. The choice will be between Priti, Liz, Faye, Alice and the Twins.

So far I've just put in little tasters for each of these girls and now it's time to work on the main courses. When I set the poll (most likely early next week) I'll give a very short outline of where I see each girl's storyline going, along with a few preview pictures, to help people decide which they want to see most. With my new improved animation technique, I should be able to start producing the girls' punishment systems faster than before. However, it's still going to be a fairly long time before I work my way through all these girls so there could be a long wait for whichever girl comes last.

Before we move with the new girls’ storylines though there is one important issue that needs to be resolved. Cassandra is the first girl to get punished in class and one of the first to get a spanking in your office and yet currently she can only go to level 2. It gives new players the impression that the game is a lot less complete than it is, and it's the last major placeholder from chapter one. Cassandra fell through the cracks when I tried to fit hers and Amy's storylines in one update when I made version 0.7 and time pressures subsequently forced me to move on. However, this situation cannot go on indefinitely and I need to dedicate some time to her. The base of her punishment system is there so hopefully it shouldn't take too long to complete it and to get her up to level 5.

There are also a few scenes that got cut from version 0.10 that I should be able to add in relatively quickly, including Charlotte getting caught smoking, Harriet getting her comeuppance for her homework-for-chocolate racket and an advancement to the group medical storyline. So that's what I'll be working on in the immediate future. I'm not going to set a date yet for version 0.11, but expect something much quicker than the last two updates. At a rough guess, I’d say six to eight weeks from now.

Okay, now I have to wonder about finding April and her graffiti...
Will we start catching her writing nasty/funny things about the other girls on the bathroom walls?
Will we need to get access to the restrooms to search for this defacing of school property?
Will we need to start searching girls for pens before they can be allowed use the the facilities?
What about the showers or locker room, will she start looking for new locations to defile?

This could open up many interesting new activities.

I mean getting caught carrying her pen while searching with Racheal. You'd never guess where.

See, we ARE going to need those body cavity searches soon!

Or we could just adjust the uniform. Can't put anything up there if its already full.

I have evolved beyond you mere mortals in that I have three 1/3rds in my brain, instead of the traditional 2 halves... I have the right 3rd, the left third, and the middle part (which I have un-innovatively nicknamed my "head"master) dedicated to my play-through, musings and fantasies about THE HEADMASTER!!

This post made the central third Hyperactive! there is just so much going on in there that it is likely to overload the entire system!!

So to avoid waking up one day with a riding crop in one hand, a paddle in the other, screaming for Mrs.Newman, with an unfamiliar, cowering, legal age teenager bent over my knee, I have to find a creative outlet!!!

What was that? You guys volunteer? OH thank you so much my fellow pervs!!!!

Here Goes:

1. Order of punishment / Level ups: Cassandra (because you know, we gotta rescue her from the cracks #LeaveNoGirl'sBehind), Twins (For Mrs. Potts of course!), Liz (Cuz she is perfect and ripe for submission), Priti, Alice, Faye

2. Story arc focus (staff)
a. Mis Potts
i. Training (including punishment by the twins)
ii. Make her the first sub of the Harem, wracked by guilt and enamored by the pleasure of the headmaster's touch, she
becomes the perfect slave, willing to learn from, and provide pleasure to not just HM, but Ms. Star and Ms. Newman!
b. Ms. Newman
i. Add her apartment!!!! This is where the HM will conduct experiments that are too taboo even for the school owners!
ii. She becomes the de facto 'Mamasan' of the Harem, directing staff and students alike and training them in the art and
science of PHP.
c. Ms. Chang
i. Get her the damn 3 D printer!!
ii. She will become the 'potions' master, and will create and provide thingamajigs to spy on, mind bend and control
unsuspecting students and staff members. maybe she can create body alteration serums too, to (say) let Rachel feel
the burden of bigger boobs, or Alice the freedom of small ones. she may also create temporary Futas out of some girls
to give them an 'ahem' educational experience of the pleasures of a dick!
iii.Too many possibilities here, but she of course joins the harem when the HM mind controls her using her own device /
potion
d. Samantha
i. Paying for the sins of the sibling (who was hired by MyKock to keep the girls compliant through addiction), she
succumbs to the realization that she is a Masochist and joins the harem as the second sub
ii. When the staff is not practicing on the students, they will find a willing participant in Sam, who will be the dummy

3. Other stuff
a. Nudist area: Later turned into a forced nudity area (to prevent shaming)
b. Nurse Kate turned into a fetish coach (you know, to make sure fetishes are explored safely!)
c. Rule for cavity searches
d. Rule for full nude punishment

Phew... Thanks to you guys allowing me to offload some of the more urgent process threads, my "head"master has returned to optimal performance once again! Still a lot to process, but I will return when the blood flow to my 'not-so-little' Headmaster lets up!


Thanks for listening guys.. You are the best!

P.S. these are the musings of an addled, but highly evolved (three thirds architecture) brain... so in case you do not comprehend something, don't feel bad.... and if you have a strong contrarian perspective, just assume you are wrong and accept mine! If you are itching to write a negative response, put those fingers to better use, and go play THE HEADMASTER!

I don't know. I like how each new rule is related to a punishment or when a punishment is necessary.
So I think we should implement other rules before we jump the gun.
Mandatory buttplugs. Keeps them awake and guarantees no cookie pockets.
A plague of nudity. What started at the beach goes back to the class as Liz realizes its not against the rules to just attend class naked.
Remotes for women who need more attention. wwnma (Cassandra with a shocker plug)
I really want to see everyone get to used to nudity. So you have to up the humiliations of punishments again.

While I enjoy the idea of nudity as much as the next person, methinks excess of it might make it mundane.

I enjoy the shyness, the hesitance, the slow revealing of skin.

But of course, the dissociation of nudity and taboo is a great idea. and LOVE the idea of forced toy insertions and wearing them all day. I KNOW Debbie would love to control the remotes

Well, as long as she isn't streaking... We might have to punish her for that... But then, there is no running in the halls anyway, so streaking would be pretty hard to do without breaking that rule too!

Are you talking image stutter or full falling apart?

the other images overlay errors I couldn't produce today, for whatever reason Before that, I definitely had them with Amy and Sally hmm no idea why not today

That's ok. The next time that you see it just push (windows key)+(prt scn) that will produce a instant screenshot and I could check the programing. Though it could have been system lag from background process.

Could you imagine the look on Ruth's face once she realizes the state of things.
"But Debbie never wears underwear"
"What do mean the Headmaster has seen..."
"Yeah pretty sure he's seen us all nude at least once."
"Not me."
"Shut up Priti, don't you remember the water fight?"
Oh how would we punish her for it? Can't make her stay nude as that's now a reward.
Maybe she has to preform a Sex Ed demonstration on proper technique and etiquette in masturbation (humiliation) with her own hands.

is this event not in the game yet as i've unlocked every other one and that's the only one left:

also for some reason it's impossible for me to do a private punishment on Cassandra, if i try it the screen goes black and i here the spanking sounds for instance and then it crashes and i have to close the game and reopen it.

as for the locked rachel event i'm not sure if that's something i can unlock now as i'm on day 341 and she is always well behaved in class now so i don't think i can send her for private punishment like that and i'm not sure if getting the receptionist to summon her to the office for punishment will let me unlock that as i've done it multiple times and still haven't got that.

Looks like you are missing a .jpg file
'cass grope_butt_d3_v1_1.jpg'
possibly you need to down load the full version and reinstall. The images are contained in a file NOT a folder. If you open the download in a zip app then drag all the containing files and folders to the window containing the game files overwriting where necessary if should correct the issue you are having. IT SHOULD NOT OVERWRITE YOUR SAVES as the zip files do not contain a save folder.

The file
cass grope_butt_d3_v1_1.jpg
is missing. Which is strange as the file doesn't even exist for me.
Checked the code and at some point (probably around v0.7) the dev started the process of upgrading Cass's punishments. But the file just doesn't exist yet. Cass _d3_ doesn't exist just yet.

 

[RazorX]

not sure what's happening, i downloaded TheHeadmaster-0.10.1-pc.zip and extracted it.
i didn't have a 0.10.1 folder before extracting it so i can't see how it's messed up.
