Unity Venus's Club [v9.5.0.1] [Disgruntler]
- Thread starter Disgruntler
- Start date
In normal mode, you start with $300, no girls, and when you want to hire any, the price is based on what's listed in their JSON file (which you can edit, if you have the tools). Some might cost $300, while others cost $100,000. The guy who made the pack will have set the price if you don't change it, though one of the editors has a useful and IMO pretty accurate approximation tool if you want to make them fair. Typically, you're going to start by hiring the cheapest girls one by one and working your way up the ladder as you save more money.
In scramble mode, you start with one girl already, and then when you go to hire more, they are "randomly" added to the list in small numbers, starting very cheap and then getting more expensive as you go. So in theory, you could have the most expensive girl from normal mode show up first in scramble.
IMO, neither mode is better and they both have their up sides.
Crown Jewels are girls that the game assigns as a reward once you have achieved a certain status level in the game, such as 100 reputation or $100,000 saved. Again, this designation can be assigned in their JSON file, or else the game will do it randomly. When you are rewarded one of these girls in this manner, their stats are maxed to 100 in every category from the get go, meaning that they earn as much as they possibly can every time they see clients. In some game modes, this also means that their daily cost is MUCH higher though, so you have to be careful.
You didn't ask, but there is also the ability to set girls to be rewarded from the Lottery in standard mode as well. If you do this, they will not show up as being hirable through standard means. In scramble mode, any girl who you don't already have might be rewarded in the lottery.

It can, but its easy to get it wrong, and you have to know what you're doing. If you type something wrong, it can lead to the girlpack not being recognized by the game as viable. Once I realized that the editor could do it with a mouse click, I fully switched to that way.
If you downloaded a new version of the game, you might not be able to pick up on a save from a prior version. Otherwise, I'm not sure.

Hi,
I have two quick questions about this.
First, what do I need to enter in the JSON file to designate a girl as a crown jewel?
Second, how many can I designate? Is there a limit?

Hey, I'm so sorry. I made a mistake when I wrote that before. I don't know of a way that you can assign someone as a Crown Jewel. You can assign them as a lottery girl or a first girl, but now a jewel.
In my experience, the game typically will grab one of the girls in your list who has the highest amount of content and assign them as the Jewel if you choose that option. However, this isn't 100% true, as I had it pick one with only an above average amount the last time I did it.

Ah, okay... no problem..
It could also have been possible possible, and I may have overlooked it again.
But thank you for your response anyway...

To designate a girl as a Crown Jewel, you just need to open their description.json file, and add a line that says...
"Power": 25,
...or change the number to 25 if the Power line is already in there (that's the same line that designates traits like Brat or Cousin of Gespote). Don't include the comma if it's the last line.
I'm pretty sure if you set more than five, it will just randomly select five of the ones you set for each new game.

Hey... thanks for your reply...
I knew that you could assign jobs with Power, but I didn't know that you could also define them as Crown Jewels.
I'll try it out today...
Maybe take over the thread, or make a new one, so people dont have to go trough the forum to find the update Great job btw, glad to see it going again
Great job btw, glad to see it going again Hi, I have a strange problem: When playing abcomfg's version 9.5.1.2x it crashes very VERY often when showing videos. When playing stock 9.5.0.1 I have absolutely zero crashes. I think both versions are handling videos the same way, so it shouldn't be a problem with codecs? Any idea?
(Win11, Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX4070)
(Win11, Ryzen 7 7800X3D, RTX4070)
Might be an issue with one of Raivoasdf's mods, as that's the only thing I can think of between 9.5.0.1 and 9.5.1.2x that modifies anything involved with playing videos.
Without a crash report or similar, I'm not sure as to what the trigger is.
Hi abcomfg,
I recently tried playing the last mod version with Adversity turned off, and it produces a weird experience. I know that it wasn't a focus for your development, but maybe you can tweak this "easy" mode a bit for a smoother experience?
- When you hire a new girl, the money you pay to her is shown in her stats, so you can immediately get them back without any repercussions; essentially, it makes hiring the girls free.
- You are kind of incentivized to, from time to time, click through your staff and gather their money, because... It's free money! but it's tedious and adds nothing to the experience. It can be ignored, but when you get to the Crown Jewels, it just feels wrong not to press a button and receive several k.
I'm not sure how to remediate these issues, but I think some smoothing of this "easy" mode could be fun.

They increase the girls ability in some areas quicker than just having them work regularly. However, they also tend to be much slower than their gains from being sent to the Broker. I don't use them much either way.
