Since Disgruntler is doing such as awesome job on the game, I wanted to step up and help the girl pack community.

I created a Database which is sortable, filterable and automatically checks the download links each day and marks them if dead.

Awesome man.

Can we also get a column we last update date? I always like to check the new stuff and this would make it much easier.

I finally got some time to play the latest version.

The new stuff is a nice addition. It expands the play and makes the game more versatile. I liked the mechanics and the uncertainty.

There were some glitches but I kept playing so I’ll post them in order.

I apologize if Disgruntler has addressed these previously. I did a search and scan of the forum when looking for resolutions to problem as they occurred and read the posts after the most recent release.

1. I had a problem with the profile portraits being only white boxes. It happened after a save and shutdown and stayed even after a re-save and close. It seemed to me that the code was getting confused since it didn’t even give the default profile picture. I think I solved it by removing older versions of the game. At the very least, deleting old versions caused it to correct itself on this playthrough. Food for thought, maybe.

2. Lottery Nicole is worthless. Her “Don’t Dos” included everything. She was a foreplay enthusiast so she’d do that. Even the negotiator wouldn’t make her do anything else. I was far enough along in the game that I couldn’t use her enough to make money for her to go to classes to see if she’d learn to do anything else. Oh, and I couldn’t fire her – or send her back to office full-time or anything. She just took up space – which didn’t hurt anything, I guess, since she isn’t one of my favorites. But I can see other players being peeved with this.

3. I hit the Rachel Starr hiring screen when I bought the final club and upgrades. I went back through to an older save and tried again … and it did the same thing when I got to the final upgrade part. I tried various things to fix it: Firing a girl to free space, repairing girls, building up enough stats to actually hire Rachel Starr, trying to reject all the contracts. Nothing worked. It was a fixed point. After that, the only way to get new girls was through the lottery. I had 100 girlpacks available and gaining those points wasn’t too difficult but I didn’t have enough of a roster built up for classes and brokers.

I kept a save from right before I bought the last upgrade if you want to see it.

All it all, the additions you’ve put in are fun and creative. They add a new aspect to the game and are definitely worthwhile.

I hope this helps.

Do you mean like "latest added girls?"

 

[RodBo]

yes, so that people know what is new

I'd wonder if you could still date her out of that bad situation, but I honestly never considered Lottery Nicole. Thanks for this, I'll address it in next build.

Let me do some testing then. Thank you!

I have some time this morning so I'll give that a shot and let you know. I was never a fan of that portion of the game so I didn't try that method. I typically skip the Nicole content because my interest in her isn't high enough to deal with the minigame. lol

Give a shout if you want the save file from right before the final upgrade and thank you for what you're doing.

I don't have the girlpacks you do so your save couldn't be loaded on my end or it might not replicate the bug but I am thankful for the offer. I think I have some good information though from you, and I am grateful.

EDIT: Never mind that, actually, let me see your file. I can't replicate it on my end.

 

[jggold]

Here are back-to-back saves. 13 is just before the Final Club purchase; 14 is afterward.

I had to zip them to get them uploaded.

And I'm more than willing to help out however I can.

Actually I think I solved the problem!

The way the code works in the system is that it adds 4 to the club level (set by the improvement) and that's how it calculates your slots.
But apparently when you do the max club level, it sets it to 100. (And I know why it does, I can't change this exactly)

This would normally just be annoying, but it also tries to fill slots up to the club level! So, if you happen to have less than 100 girls recruitable, but it forces 100+ recruits, it bugs out, can't do it, and it gives you the 'I don't know how to do this' bug you see with the Rachel Star Spam.

I'm fixing it right now.

 

[jggold]

Dude, you are rocking this! Give a shout if you ever decide to monetize this build in some way. I'll chip in to compensate you for the time and energy you're putting forth.

Edit: Just dropped 100 more girlpacks in and picked up from before the upgrade. Worked exactly as you said it would. Nicely done!

 

[Disgruntler]

Alright, excellent news, I have solved Lottery Nicole, 100+ Openness, 104+ Rachels Bug.

This should include a fix that repairs existing files for 100+ Openness girls and 104+ Rachels. Unfortunately, I cannot do a fix if you've already got Lottery Nicole because the system can't see how you recruited her. Wompwompwomp. She won't show up in Lottery going forward. If you want to get your girls level back down to a manageable range, just keep rejecting girls until it gets things back to normal. This is temporary functionality though, don't rely on this as a girl level strategy in the future.

I'm also going to push forward a balance change to smooth the level gain curve for recruiting girls in Scramble Mode.

There is also a bug I've found where if you lottery a girl that's already revealed in the Scramble Recruit list, you might end up with a duplicate girl situation and her stats may come out wonky. Lottery will now remove that girl from the revealed list.

After this, I'll be working on the next feature.

EDIT: The fix is not uploading now. Oof. The Nicole Fix ended up, somehow, destroying a certain piece of logic making it Rachel Star Day All Day Every Day.

This has been fixed, I'm doing testing now.

I've also added a quality of life feature--the most recent recruit shows up on the main club screen, which helps add more visibility to your first Scramble Recruit and Broker Recruits, in particular. The only type of recruitment it doesn't show for is a Normal Mode hire.

As well, Eager Student trait has been buffed. A girl with it now also gets a bonus chance to successfully skill up in the booth on top of other bonuses.

Girls from Lottery and Brokers are a biiiiiiiiiiit (way) too strong. They should be great, but not 'all 100 stats just as you're starting Foreplay' great. That's getting adjusted.


EDIT2: Testing has been positive, it appears I've ironed out the kinks. Uploading now.

Maybe i'm out off your league but i was thinking about "selling" the girls we have at max stats, the one's we don't want to keep, to some organization... It's just an idea if you wanna think about that, i'm reaching to 1000 GP's, wanna train everyone but only want to keep a few as favorites...

If you're getting up to hundreds of Girlpacks, while I won't likely add a sell-girl mode (not that kind of game), perhaps Scramble Mode might be your cup of tea, as it forces you to a limited roster of availability.

On the other hand, in real life, the struggle to keep enough (reasonably priced) girls is real for most strip club owners. If a girl gets famous/good enough, she might move on to porn/escorting/better clubs. It is not at all unrealistic for girls to have a chance to leave, once they get sufficiently far advanced. That would not be a good thing for the club owner, as they are not likely to make any money off it... but it is a more realistic option than selling the girl somewhere else.

 

[ChubberLang]

I like having the new girl thing pop especially at the beginning. Just to let you know if I go back and restart the game (because I didn't like girl #1) she shows up on the upper left until I go through and repurchase the club.

Also, while it might be realistic for a girl to leave I don't know how fun it would be for a player. Right now we can fire and re-hire in the main game. Right now I don't think you can re-hire girls in Scramble Mode which can lead to a fail state for a new player (without enough to purchase a new girl), so that might be a good option to add. Or potentially "lend out" the girls to other clubs for a lump payment, and get them back by paying back that payment? I dunno. Spitballing.

 

[jimmyjohns]

so I downloaded the VC Happy club from Disgruntler, I need to download girlpacks on top of that to actually play the game? Just the basic one on the front page or?

 

[ChubberLang]

The basic one will get you started and let you try out the game. More girlpacks = more fun though.

Start with the basic pack on the first page. If you want to do Scramble Mode, I do recommend getting a lot more.

I recommend getting more anyways, this game is better with more.
