I am sorry
English itself is not my mother tongue
Please forgive me if there are any parts of the vocabulary that you do not understand.

First of all, I really want to thank you for the game itself
All those who contributed

Then I would also like to thank you for your efforts in making this mod to make this game more colorful.

I would like to ask if you are converting

.webm


What software did you use to convert it? Because in your mod
Jordan156_Angela_White
Jordan158_Samantha_Rone
Jordan160_Elena_Koshka
perhaps
They are all mp4 and cannot be reflected in the game itself.
I would like to ask if you have a chance to modify it later?

I'm really sorry to disturb your precious time.

yo man thanks for feedback just looked into your issue and i did not even convert any of the vids for the latest update it will be solved in the next update as that should be within the week. please join the discord as the feedback would hit me faster as i only log on here like once a week.

If it's the individual girls, put the folder in game/girls.

it looks like this

 

[Canadian_sausage]

it looks like this

the same folders exist in the game folder. click on it, and open each folder individually, just copy everything from the mod folder of the same name, and drop it into the matching folder in your game. So 1.girls goes in game/girls, 2.vids goes in games/vids, and so on.

 

[Yoshitomo]

I updated the mod, with 4 new girls, and some new photoshoots.
Includes two girls for the nostalgic, who were successful 20 years ago.
Soon I hope to dedicate myself to writing events, but it's going very slowly.

I don't think the uniform clothing rule should actually be exclusive to the other clothing rules. Instead I think it should make it so that they have to wear school uniform clothing for any clothing that they aren't banned from wearing. I'd also like to see more steps to the clothing rules, going from anything is allowed to no pants or skirts allowed is a bit of a big jump. I'd like to see a level that mandates skirts and one that sets a max length for skirts first.

Suggestions?

I'm not the one that you were responding to, but I think it would be great if there was some content for if a mother and daughter have very divergent stats. Like in my last game the lowest corruption mother had a daughter with maxed out naturism. It would be fun if you could have a "concerned" conversation with her about the way her daughter has been dressing, after her daughter came to school topless for example.

ok thank you for the help

Another interaction that might be fun is asking a daughter (in front of her mom) how she feels about you doing some action to her. The conversation could go differently depending on whether the action is tolerated or not, the daughters stats (whether the action would have a positive impact, slightly negative impact or highly negative impact) as well as the mothers stats.

So for example if the daughter says she enjoys you groping her ass, which is a tolerated action then a low corruption mother might have her corruption and fear increase. On the other hand if it is a tolerated action, but the daughter dislikes it and the mothers corruption is high then the mother might scold her daughter, giving the mother slightly less corruption, but the daughter significantly more. Those are just some ideas, would be happy to hear anyone else's thoughts.

i second this idea

Hello.
The game looks great, but as a non-native english speaker, it's a bit hard for me to play.
Not because it's poorly written, quite the opposite, but because the rules/strategy are a bit hard to understand for me.
Can anybody do me an ELI5 of how to play the game efficiently?
I always end up with many reports and parents against me, so I can't win any vote.
How to play?

Thanks!

I probably could put something like a "heart to heart" conversation in the evening visit. That would be the best place to put it, I think. As a menu-option, it could be placed in three different places, on the main screen when you first arrive at the house where you decide to talk to mom, daughter or leave. It can also be placed on mom's and daughter's own menu's after you've chosen where you're going. I think the latter pair would be the best, but all three could be used. Each can have different options, and different payoffs. I'll have to look at how to reference the tolerated actions, and come up with questions and conversations that fit. It might take a while, it might not.

I am currently trying to figure out why I'm getting 404's for my mods on vids that exist, and the game should be able to find. Initially, it seemed the problem was with girls who had a vids-folder in their folder, but I've had errors on girls without vids-folders too. I've tried adding the tags to the _mainTags.txt file, but that hasn't corrected the problem. I've also noticed the sponsor-call plug also doesn't seem to be working now, it does work in .318 though. At least on both of my laptops. It's always nice to have a new project to work on though.

Start slow. The game is designed to require you to build a little from one level to another. When you see the exam actions, start with the ones that are green. Over time, more and more of the options will be a shade of green, or light yellow. Those are pretty safe. Don't try and take clothes if the chance is under 75% or so, wait until your chances are higher.
Just don't rush along too fast

The game is kinda poorly explained, even if you are a native English speaker, so I'm not sure anyone can explain how to play the game efficiently. But I can give you some tips about reports: When you choose an action with a girl it will say how that action will impact her, in a colored font ranging from green, through orange to red. The greener the action the less the student will mind you doing that, but it will also not do as much to stop her from answering the questions. The redder an action is the more it will do to stop the student working, but the more she will mind and the more likely she is to report it. In my experience students will never report actions that have a text that's at least a little green, they will sometimes report actions that are orange, and usually report anything beyond that. So try to stick to actions that are green and you avoid reports.

I think I found a bug. I was looking through the game's files, trying to learn how voting is decided, and I found that the vote includes the mothers affection in both the mother's influence on the vote and in the daughters influence on the vote.


_corruption = self.affection*0.2 + self.naturism*0.3 + self.corruption*0.5 - self.fear*0.2
and
_girlInfluence = self.affection*0.2 + self.daughter.corruption*0.3 + self.daughter.naturism*0.1 - self.daughter.fear*0.1

In the seccond line I think it should be self.daughter.affection, rather than self.affection.

 

[subli]

Is it possible to ever decrease a girls fear? Or does it only ever go up?

 

[Canadian_sausage]

Forgiving rule breaks will decrease fear for both...

I was hoping that doing actions with negative pain (like giving hints or encouragement) would decrease a girls fear, but there is a line, "if _pain < 2: _pain = 2" that ensures that all exam actions will increase fear, even positive ones.

I love what you have planned, I love management games too. I went and voted, really liked all three options, so I had to throw my non-Euclidian three-sided coin to decide on the first option.

Alea jacta est!

not a bug per se, but if you get a touch bored in the middle of a game and add a girl through mod pack, the game resets and you'll only be able to see the default vids.

I'll look into this issues, some ppl are also reporting in on the Discord but doesn't seems to occur for everyone that's weird. Have you tried manualed reloading webmFinder via setting=>debug, what does it do?

Hi Ninoss,
I guess that the fixes and suggestions I made did not get to you. Probably the post on your profile was not a good idea. Let me know how can I share them with you. I have them prepared for current version as well.

Yeah I saw it was about the webmFinder but as it was an archive with many files, I didn't had time to compare them as my code base had already been modified.

Tbh the only reason I dislike the photoshoot mechanic is how cumbersome it is when trying to make custom girls. Needing to have like, 20+ photos for the photoshoot to be valid, which is harder than it sounds when using girls who aren't artsy like what you'd see on MetArt, and then having such complex naming schemes makes it extremely tedious to even get one photoshoot done, and the content it actually adds is relatively minor, at least in the current form. I think events, which have been mostly untouched outside of things like canadian sausage's panty raid, would be a much better angle to work with. Easier to set up even if they require actual writing of content, and more engaging for the player.

Same issue for me mate, girls that don't have quality photoshoots are a pain but what can we say, the game use real porn assets... The best girls are the ex-MetArt girls that gone pornstar. That's notably why adding actual pornstar is in fact more complicated. Modders have access to a software to help with the required naming conventions.
Events are in fact way better content but takes an outrageous amount of time or money if commisioned. I have nowhere near the required time nor required cash to support it.

I was wondering if it is okay to remove Vanilla girls from the game folder? I want to see some different variety that mods offer, but I often get stuck seeing the same vanilla girls. Would removing them mess up the game or scripting?

The game won't work with less than 5 girls, but you can freely replace all vanilla girls with modded ones.

Just an idea: since you're still building the game, and since every new installation seems to require a restart, could you add an accelerated start option? Something like having photostudio and 8 students allready unlocked, or something similar? I really like this game, and every update adds new content. But it's a grind getting through the first 2-3 weeks, and that could be skipped.

I've made numerous update to avoid having to restrart a new save each time, for the time I'm investing in it I hope it kinda works tbh... You can always cheat the photoclub rule and max out base 5 girls via settings=>debug options.

I know the game is poorly explained and also have a counter-intuitive gameplay. I'm working on it rn.
But as a general rule, don't go hard at the start or you gonna be roasted by parents.

I think I found a bug. I was looking through the game's files, trying to learn how voting is decided, and I found that the vote includes the mothers affection in both the mother's influence on the vote and in the daughters influence on the vote.


_corruption = self.affection*0.2 + self.naturism*0.3 + self.corruption*0.5 - self.fear*0.2
and
_girlInfluence = self.affection*0.2 + self.daughter.corruption*0.3 + self.daughter.naturism*0.1 - self.daughter.fear*0.1

In the seccond line I think it should be self.daughter.affection, rather than self.affection.

Fixed next update

I was hoping that doing actions with negative pain (like giving hints or encouragement) would decrease a girls fear, but there is a line, "if _pain < 2: _pain = 2" that ensures that all exam actions will increase fear, even positive ones.

Actually, this check is securing negative pain values for the linear conversion. So that's ensuring the opposite.
Fear is automatically decreasing by 8% of itself each day, see game\scripts\main_classes\girlManager.rpy

Hi, will be available Hypno mod for 323 version?
