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

[Disgruntler]

I'm curious about something. If a girlpack has 10 handjob clips and 1 titjob clip (and both of those are unlocked in the game), when you assign that girl to a foreplay client, does the game first select between HJ and TJ, and then select a random clip from that folder (meaning that the one titjob clip has a higher chance of being seen than any individual handjob clip), or does it randomly select from the 11 foreplay clips (meaning that the only distinction between the two folders is whether titjobs have been unlocked yet)?

It chooses a folder at random, and then chooses a random clip within the folder.

If I install TUSC girlpack in VC, could I watch video from Spa and gym? cause it looks like the name of the foler is same as VC. Foreplay, pose..

VC does not see Spa/Gym/Gloryhole videos, and to help retain each game's niche I have not made any in-roads into including TUSC-specific additions in VC.

Is there a way to fast forward or speed up the work time?

Ayone know of a work around to have my girlpacks on a different drive to the game and get the girlpacks folder to point at that folder?

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.

If you're using Windows 10 (maybe 11?) I've found that symbolic links work. You could fuck around in powershell and create symlinks like that, or use

You must be registered to see the links

to have it appear in the right-click menu. I've got my girlpacks separated into folders and just symlink the ones I want to use for a run into the girlpack folder.

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?

Can you maybe put in the code have a shortcut to the folder inside the game folder that points to a folder on another drive?

Changing the girlpacks folder in any way breaks things it shouldn't break.

I'm not saying it's impossible to do, just that every time I've tried it's lead down a path of problems that I can't find the solution for, and it should be simple. There's a variable that just exists to be the GirlPack folder's path. I should be able to change that path and it works no matter what.

The problem is it seems not everything actually uses that path to work that should.

I see. Playing with variables when you aren't the original coder can be troublesome. Never know where they may have hidden something deep in the code you aren't aware of.

You must be registered to see the links

It's strange that almost noone knows about this windows feature, that exists at least since XP... You can make links in windows, across hard drives, or even to remote servers...
Maybe because you can only create them on the console

Just open a command prompt (Win+R -> cmd.exe), go to the game directory where the girlpack folder should be and type:

mklink /j girlpacks "{location of your actual girlpacks folder}"

You see it in explorer indicated by a small arrow, similar to a shortcut.
I use it on my system, to share girlpacks between 9.5.0.1 and 9.5.0.2, without problems

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.

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?

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.
