Unity Venus's Club [v9.5.0.1] [Disgruntler]

[Maximal666]

None, including me going into the code itself and making the default folder user changable--for some reason changing the girlpack folder location in the code itself breaks things that it shouldn't break.

And believe me, no one wants the ability to like to a default folder location more than I do.

Ok fair enough. Thanks for the reply.

I was just playing a game in 9.5.0.2 where some girls were only obtainable through the lottery (they never showed up in the recruit window, even when everyone else was recruited), despite not having inLottery set to true. I think they might have been girlpacks that I added after the game was started (I mean like after I had clicked Start New Game, not that I never closed and reloaded the game after adding the girlpacks), is that how it's supposed to work?

I just looked at it again, and one of the girls that are only showing up in the lottery is definitely one who I didn't add recently, because I remember recruiting her in a previous game. I really don't get why it's working like this.

Incidentally, can someone refresh my memory on the differences between 9.5.0.2 and 9.5.0.1? I think I mainly changed because of portrait100 and just generally always wanting to be on the cutting edge. I'm wondering if this lottery thing is a bug that's only happening in the newer version, but I want to know what I'm getting into if I go back and start a game in the older version.

Normal Mode or Scramble Mode?

Crown Jewels on or off?

Scramble Mode doesn't have 'inLottery' as a mechanic, exactly, so that is a nonfactor.

If Crown Jewels is on, the girl in question is likely a Crown Jewel for that game and will not be recruitable, no matter other settings.

If you are in Normal Mode, girls that require Influence as part of their recruit cost are hidden until you've unlocked the Mafia and can start earning Influence as a currency.

Another (very rare) possibility is that she's been 'broken' by a flag in the JSON being set that shouldn't that sets her so her videos are part of the code itself (Nicole is the only one with this flag set) but I don't see this as likely, seeing as I've never told anyone about this flag.

p100, some math fixes and testing out some new inner mechanics for some behind the scenes stuff.

Normal Mode or Scramble Mode?

Crown Jewels on or off?

Scramble Mode doesn't have 'inLottery' as a mechanic, exactly, so that is a nonfactor.

It was Scramble with Crown Jewels off. I got them (after the recruit screen was empty and they still hadn't showed up) by pressing the button that says "Spend 30 Connection on a Lottery." That showed up pretty late into the game, not sure what triggered it to be available (there's also the lottery option in the mob store that seems to work the same way). But whether that button was supposed to be there or not, the fact remains that those girls weren't showing up in the normal recruit screen at all. Like I said before, at least one of those girls was definitely in the girlpack folder when I clicked Start New Game. I'm attaching her JSON file so you can check if anything looks unusual about it (I archived it because apparently you can't send JSON files as attachments). Also, I confirmed that she is available in the recruit list for non-scramble mode.

Another interesting note is that if I recruited all the remaining girls through the lottery and then dismissed everyone from the recruit screen, it would say "You have a maximum of 0 contract offers" because there are no girls left. If I purchased all the girls that showed up in the recruit screen until it was blank, that number would be the number of girls that weren't showing up in the recruit screen at all. So it seems like they're taken into account on the recruit screen, but they just never show up there to be recruited.

Would it be possible to add new categories to performances? I'm trying to make my own girlpack and I feel like the options are lacking. As an example, what category would you put two girls scissoring a double-ended dildo in?

It would be nice to at least get "dance naked", "buttjob" and "lesbian" added. If it's possible.

 

[rb813]

As an example, what category would you put two girls scissoring a double-ended dildo in?

Whichever one you want. It could be Toymast, since a dildo is a toy, or it could be FacingVaginal, because the main girl (the one the girlpack is for) is effectively being fucked by the girl on the other end of the dildo, or you could just set aside a folder like FJ or TJ for things that don't quite fit into anything else. Adding more categories would mean that all the hundreds of existing girlpacks would now have categories they don't have videos for.

It would be nice to at least get "dance naked", "buttjob" and "lesbian" added.

What would you see as the difference between "dance naked" and the current Naked folder? I just put any clips where the girl is naked and not making contact with the guy's penis in that folder.

I think buttjobs would probably be hard to find for a lot of girls, I'd recommend putting them in one of the foreplay folders.

I agree a lesbian folder would've been a good idea at the outset, but I think that ship has probably sailed at this point (because again, there would be hundreds of girlpacks that would be "wrong" after that change was made).

 

[rb813]

a flag in the JSON being set that shouldn't that sets her so her videos are part of the code itself

This reminded me of a change I wanted to suggest. It would be fun if players could change (or at least add to) the default clips for each folder, when you have the bool set to true on a girl but don't have any clips in that folder (especially the finishes). I was actually thinking about making an "assorted" girlpack, for cases where I like an individual clip, but not enough to make a whole girlpack for that actress. I think instead of doing that, I'd rather just be able to change the default clips, so I don't have to see the same clip over and over again when I want to get a finisher bonus for a girl who doesn't have a clip of that particular finish in her girlpacks.

I could see that also being beneficial to people who make packs, who might want to build a pack a little bit at a time, but still have the partially-made pack included in their current playthrough.

Adding more categories would mean that all the hundreds of existing girlpacks would now have categories they don't have videos for

Not only this but it would require Disgruntler to track down "base clips" for these performances. From what I understand, if the JSON is set to true for a performer action, a default clip plays if no video exists.

Tobe (the original developer) added Threesome/Group finish midway through the original build and you still have about a third to half of the older packs that require fills for those categories because the pack creator didn't want to fool with it.

The method rb813 suggests is probably better for customization: Use folders that already exist for the clips you want to see.

The game doesn't "check" to make sure the clips match the folder description. If you drop a foursome clip into the dance folder, it's going to play at some point during the dance phase.

 

[rb813]

It might be worth noting that I've posted multiple girlpacks here that have cunnilingus in the ToyMast folder, and no one's given me any shit for it. So if you're worried that other people will have problems with you putting other types of clips in existing folders, my perception so far is that you don't have anything to worry about. Just make the girlpack that makes you happy, and release it if you feel like it. People are happy to have something that they didn't have to do themselves, they don't get nitpicky in my experience.

Stick a pin on this one, when I can find time to really get back into coding this again this is one of the things I want to do. I can say that making Nicole and 'Default Girl' user-alterable is on the list of things I want done.

 

[Disgruntler]

Not only this but it would require Disgruntler to track down "base clips" for these performances.

This isn't what stops me.

If I add a new category, this will have two effects.

1) It changes the game balance and I'd have to go in and readjust ALL the numbers for everything to get things back to where I like it

2) It means that girlpack makers have extra work to do and old packs get fills or remade.

1 is not a big deal.

2 is pretty much a deal breaker.

As for a lesbian folder, there was a mechanic I removed where girls would play with each other and get stats but I did remove it because it only triggered with the base girls and was not customizable. Implementing a replacement for it was something I've toyed with but haven't been able to really get to 'work.'

 

[Teritius]

New categories won't be a thing. Got it.

Are there new Girlpacks? Is anyone adding more scenes to the girlpacks?

 

[ChubberLang]

This thread has girlpacks. You should probably use the scutterhut link as it's the most updated. There are about a thousand available.

 

[Disgruntler]

Are there new Girlpacks? Is anyone adding more scenes to the girlpacks?

To add to the above, there's new girlpacks all the time. The link in my sig links to the girlpack folder thread where new packs are posted as they are made.

There is a link in that thread to the request thread, in case the girl you want is not made yet.

 

[RaivoAsdf]

It's not even that! I've changed lots of shit to suit my needs!

This one, however, has unintended side effects or stuff that doesn't work with it I haven't been able to nail down.

I've done a test case of doing it from scratch in other things though and it works fine.

Ok fair enough. Thanks for the reply.

Sorry if I spam, but maybe you both missed my message here. There is a simple solution that solves that problem: Windows Directory Junctions.

Nothing to code, any one can move the girlpacks whereever they want. Just make a junction and windows will handle it...

cd /d "C:\Games\VCHH v9.5.0.1"
mklink /j "Girlpacks" "D:\folder\where\my\girlpacks\really\are"

Does anyone have the source for the gif like this:

It's a default in the resources themselves for Handjobs given by a girl without any Handjob actions but with Handjob not disabled in their JSON or forced to do so with a negotiator.

No I do not know the original source it was taken from.

 

[rb813]

No I do not know the original source it was taken from.

At least the logo tells us it's a Brazzers video. We just need someone to browse through all ten thousands videos on that site.

But seriously, someone might be able to help on NameThatPornstar.com.

you go, not a Rachel Starr performance but Victoria Summers, identified by site Brazzers and very "recognizable" performer Danny D.
