Notes

Hi,
a few things on the most recent 3.3.04c update.

There are still a number of bugs in the release, mostly not too bad but vary a little
  • some events when walking can be blank
  • some trainings for slaves can also have no text, for instance the custom trainings for Sakuya
both of these issues are fixed. If it matters I have posted a fix in a thread at the futanari palace, I will release an actual update once more issues fixed.
  • still some issues with the display of skills getting messed up. I have not quite found where that happens. If someone can get it reliably, as in load a save game, so action x and get the issue, please post me the save game and note what is needed to be done
  • fixed a few issues reported by developers
 I have not been working a lot actually on bug fixes recently, for this game I have mostly been working on the Ranma changes. Bug fixes can get a bit frustrating to work on and boring too, so taking a break.

I am trying to customise most of the standard text for Ranma, just working on the dating events for instance. In many cases the customisation is small text tweaks to make the interactions sound more Ramna-like and less generic.

Today I played the newest update for Overwhored (see link to right), a RPGMaker game loosely insired by the Overlord games, but with sex and mind control plus a good dose of humour. The developer is also a fan of "The Slayers" and Lina Inverse, so obviously a person of good taste. They like my game too!

EDIT:
a bug was reported where Kasumi fails to get her "Winner" ending. This is a bug in the core game and can prevent some other endings possibly.

Until I release a new version here is a fix for Kasumi. copy this file into the Slaves folder for your game installation

  3. Hi Cmac. Seems i can't get "Winner"/"Dickgirl Winner" ending for Kasumi anymore. Last time i've seen this ending was in SlaveMaker 3.1 or so. Downloaded latest release, still nothing :( After getting required stats im keep getting "Wedding" ending. Any advice? I can try to fix *xml file myself, just need to know what to look for etc

    p.s. Thanks for great game.

    1. To confirm the requirements for the ending are
      Combat Skill >= 80
      Constitution >= 80
      Temperament >= 70
      a score of 75+
      Do you meet these criteria?

      Delete
    2. yes, ofc. Tried different ways, still nothing. Even with Constitution and Temperament >= 200 and Combat Skill >= 100.

    3. Can you please post your save game you are using from before the end of her training?

    6. To get Kasumi cumslut ending she can't be a catslave? When she confessed her love of cum I didn't get any option to select from, and just said "of course, cats love cream"

      How will I get the Slut trainer ability now?

      MiF and CMac,

      I'm considering doing Lina after Holo is finished. ;-) I'm right in the middle of watching Slayers Next.
      Then again, there are quite a few others that I've been thinking about, such as Naga for an Assiatant.
      But the obvious next project should be the girls from Simoun. The problem being that there is only enough material to create them as Assistants or Minor slaves.

  5. Indeed. Debugging is always so darn taxing, and it's good to take a hiatus from it from time to time!

    On that note, if we have a bug to report, is it better to report it over on FP so that it's less easy to miss when you resume debugging or is it okay to just post in the comments here? I haven't registered on FP yet but I'd be happy to do so if it's better.

    1. Please post for Kyon's developer abisal in the Futanari Palace.

      It is explicitly in his xml to set his apathy at start as 100
      Slaves/Slave-Kyon.xml
      and you will see
      <Special>100</Special>

    2. I have posted in the developers thread to query this

      Delete
    3. The developer has confirmed that it is intentional for Kyon's Apathy to start at 100

      Delete
    4. Kyon starts fully apathetic. The training is to reduce it by making him *interested* in things.

      Wiki was edited to reflect this

  8. I think this is a problem with the loading of saves. I set the fertility value high, buy new slaves and get instant fertility. But if I set the fertility value high, buy new slaves, SAVE, QUIT THEN RELOAD no fertility. this really bums me out. Any suggestion on how to fix this would be appreciated.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. How do you setthe fertility value? By editing configuration.xml?

      Delete
    2. Yes, I suppose I could change the fertility of each slave one by one... but I really do not want to do that.

      Delete
    3. That was not my question. How did you "set the fertility value high"

      Delete
    4. I did it with the configuration.xml you know were it says default fertility; that the only place were fertility is mentioned other than the slaves them-self's, I believe.

      Delete
  9. Best way I've found to get overlapping skills is to go into "Talk to Slaves" in the morning, talk to a slave then exit... skill texts will be overlapping after that. Bugs I've found : 1) Going into talk to slaves at evening will cause the normal slave texts to constantly repeat, filling both sides of the text areas 2) when a stat increases, it does so by the next highest integer (i.e. 1.1 will increase something by 2, 2.1 will cause a 3 increase, etc.) 3) I'm still having pregnancy issues (contraceptives are on, but slaves get pregnant when in group sex) 4) Hermaphrodites are still "not male" for all group sex training... Even though I've looked up the wiki for LSOs, I seem only able to find ISOs, any advice on getting to LSOs so I can provide saves?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. A slight amendment to the previous comment, sometimes talking to slaves just erases some of the printed lines for skills or affinities after dance/sing/swim.

      Delete
    2. While training Mihoshi, with contraceptives on, she became pregnant. Cora said she was unsure who the father was, even though my SM is the only hermaphrodite, and there are no men in my household.

      Delete
  10. I couldn't get any slaves pregnant, so I used a SOL editor to look at the slaves save file.

    Every slave had a value of NAN for fertility. Is this a result of your "always pregnant" fix?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. OK, not every slave had NAN. Some just had 0, even though they weren't on contraception.

      Delete
    2. NAN = Not a number. Basically, the game is trying to read a number from some data location and there is no number there to read. It's different from 0 because 0 is a number, while NAN is the abscense of a number.

      It's usually caused by programmer error by not setting a default value for number variables.

  12. Just a small, minor bug for Felicia.

    If you mouseover her religion stat (default: New Gods), it'll take the hovering text and fill the main text box with what's in the hovering text box.

    So if you start fresh with Felicia, it'll say something like "Her faith is unbreakable." That normally displays in the box if you hover your mouse over the stat, but it'll also replace the text in the main text box as well (under the slave's picture).

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That is a bug for FGelicia, she uses an obsolete way to show the hint text. I do not have a current set of her source code, the developer droped out of all work for the game and did not leave me a set of code.

      I will when I have some free time decompile and fix this issue for her.

      Delete
    2. Exacly the same bug happens with Yuruichis Spiritial Energie stat.

    3. Same for Samus bounty hunter stat.

  13. By the way, did you take out the Mass Effect armors and the katanas because they were too powerful?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Sure they are powerfull but the high prize limits them to later games where you most likely have maxed your weapon stat
      so saving gold for those weapons / armors is the only way to further increase your combat stats besides the (extremly)slow growing attributes (slaver stat 1)

      Delete
    2. I did not remove them, they are still in the game

      Delete
    3. Is it a bug in my game that they aren't available to buy?

      Delete
    4. Check the file configuration2.xml
      does it contain the lines for ArmoursChaosWings and WeaponsChaosWings?

      Similary are there the files
      Language/English/ArmoursChaosWings.xml
      Language/English/WeaponssChaosWings.xml

      Delete
    5. Just confirmed they are all present and working for me

    6. If I take those files from an older version will there be a problem? My current version seems to be missing them, but I have an older version still.

      Delete
    7. They have not changed from the initial release.

    8. Thanks, and again, thank for the great game.

  15. No one has the same bug that does not work the event "Love Confession" I have my slave and my assistant with heart icon at the highest level, and neither they confess their love to me.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The confession is a random morning event, so even if you have top level love, it won't always happen.

      Delete
    2. Any particular slave/assistant. Some handle the events in a non-standard way, but most do not.

      Note that some slaves maker backgrounds prevent the love confession (the cruel master/mistress)

      I have not had any reports of this issue otherwise

  16. The Dr. Shoko Sugimoto, not working properly. When you visit and talk with her in "Discuss or Intimacy" statuses do not rise.

  17. Aeris's post-queen magic that gives new advantages no longer seems to be working.

    ReplyDelete
  18. OK, this is now a recurring bug for me. I couldn't get any slave pregnant, so I checked the save file with an editor. All fertility ratings had been set to 0. I spent some time changing them all back to 30, but the next time I saved the game - back to 0.

    Something is setting fertility to 0 across the board. What's going on?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Something similar was reported above. I am unclear why it is happening.

      Do you have a non zero value for fertility in configuration.xml

      Delete
    2. Just checked, I found the following:

      DefaultFertility>30</DefaultFertility

      Which looks to be right for the regular fertility rate.

      Delete
    3. Just had a thought - this is happening on a game I started on the original 3.3.0.4 release. I continued the game after patching to 3.3.0.4c. I'll start again from scratch (again) and see if this bug persists.

    1. Nami and Boa have been developed. Nami has mandatory bestiality content and has not been publically released.

      If you check Love Robin's direct download folder you can find the release. I will not be including it in the game release until the bestiality is optional.

      Boa is in development, I have an alpha release for her.

  20. AVG detects several files in this download as viruses.
    Such as Slave-ranma.swf
    Images/slaves/Misako/Break1.png

    And so on. Why is that?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. What viruses are reported?

      Most likely these are buffer overrun type issues that some image files can cause for OLD programs. Current programs do not get these issues.

      Slave-Ranma.swf is not an infectible type of file so any detection there are a false positive.

  23. CMac,

    Two bugs:

    Rinno's Shop> When I purchased the Bondage Gear, the "Next" button said "Leave", and when I clicked it, My Slaver did. If you buy the gear, hit "Equipment", then go back, everything works normally.

    Gold> After using the Gold cheat to boost Holo's Obedience for testing, everything that I had left at the end of the night was down to 0 the next moring.

  24. Holy moly, I come to check on your updates after a couple days and see you talking about my game. Thanks Connor!

    And yes, Slayers is one of my little obsessions. I've seen all the anime and read SOME of the Light Novels. My plan now is to try to read them all. They're soooo good because they're told from Lina's perspective. It's Slayers, but slathered with even MORE Lina. You can't get any better than that beautiful arrogance.

    It's the combination of arrogance and genius that makes her attractive. If anyone does make a Lina slave (I wish I had time) I hope those aspects of her make it through.

    1. Your welcome for the mention. Note: the C in my handle/name is not for Common. While I really liked Highlander the movies (EXCEPT the last) and the serieses meny handle represents my real name, but fortunately is close to Highlander too.

      SimounRules above mentioned that they may try to so a slave for Lina.

      Delete
    2. CMac,

      I had also asked about your name vis-a-vis Highlander as well a while back. :-) I'm a huge fan Myself, but to Me there are only two movies. The first one, obviously, and Endgame which wrapped up the series. I never really did get into the series much, and The Raven lost My interest rather quickly. I have yet to see a single episode of the animated series. Oh, did I mention the sound track? ;-)

      And now to SM3 business...

      Here's the short list of the ones that I'm considering trying to do next:

      Lina Inverse (The Slayers)
      Chel (The Road to Eldorado)
      Alex, Sam, and Clover (Totally Spies!)
      Aeru, Neverille, and Dominura (Simoun) Rimone is outside the general purview of the game.
      Elinore (Wizards)
      Shinobu (Ninja Nonsense)
      Choko Korona (Spider Riders)
      Teela (Masters of the Universe, New Series)
      Ayaka Kisaragi (Phantom Quest Corp)
      Kei and Yuri (Dirty Pair)
      Tea Gardner (Yu-Gi-Oh!)

      I know that some of them are said to be in developement by others. Speak up so I know who is doing whom. I'm not averse to cooperating with someone to create new characters.

      Holo is on track, and Nagisa v.1.2 (Assistant) has been released.
