Problems with verson 3.4

There have been some issues reported for version 3.4 that have not been addressed in the last fix. I am just here going to give some workarounds or direct you to fixes

Issues that can be fixed short of a new game update

Sora
Sora can appear ALWAYS when you have your slave work in the Sleazy Bar.  A small bug, and can be resolved by taking your slave for a walk in the Slums until you meet Sora there.

Chun-Li
The images for Chun-Li are missing for both torrent and Packs versions of the game. I have updated Slave Pack 3 to include the missing files. If you download and extract the pack into your game installations this will fix the issue

Super Sonico and Sona
The images for these slaves were mixed by accident in creating slave pack 11. Super Sonico's images were missing basically and mixed into Sona's folder. This issue does not exist for people who used the torrent. To resolve this download Slave Pack 11 and extract into your game installation. If preferred you can visit the Futanari Palace and download the slaves separately and install.


Issues requiring a new game update

Centaur Girl
If you enslave the centaur girl Marey then she still appears in the Forest. There is no solution to this aside from waiting for the update 3.4.01

Endings for slaves
A number of people have reported issues where custom endings are not seen. I can reproduce and undertand how this happen for slaves you personally own, like Shampoo, Ayane. I am not 100% sure otherwise of the cause of some, but I am aware of the reports.

Also, to repeat from some replies, please do note the Freelancer Slave Makers do not see any endings if they choose to keep the slave

Birthing Issues
There are some issues when a slave gives birth where the text and stat effects are mixed up with the main slave

There are quite a number of lesser bugs reported, some simple typos and some logic errors, I will endevour to have these fixed in the 3.4.01 release


 For some questions I have been asked

- if you select Rhia as you assistant she moves in, and becomes a permanent member of your home

- you cannot convert a minor slave to a traniable slave. The description I said in the feature list means that developers can do this if desired. In general Minor Slaves do not have enough images to create a full and trainable slave, so if I were to make this general you would see a lot of generic images and blank ones, especially dresses and mundane activities like cooking/cleaning etc.

- I should make the Slave Maker Witch and Pagan advantages more balanced


EDIT: Small Request
 One bug I have had reported a number of times is where the skills for your slave a mixed up, overlapping with the skills from a slave you have been talking to or your assistant. To date I have not been able to reproduce this or had someone tell be how to reproduce this reliably. By this a mean someone say
- do x, then do y, then do z and it will ALWAY happen
- and provide a save game that oes this, or give instruction how to do it from the start of a new game.
If you can reproduce this please let me know.

Thanks all, I have found and fixed the bug

  1. What about the sleazy bar issue I mentioned at the release post? Does not look like but was that change intentional? Is it due to some event?

    1. Do you mean this comment
      "Speaking of bugs, the sleazy bar sexual events are available, including the work option, even if the maker is not a sex addict."

      That is a bug introduced in refactoring and including the Glory Hole event

  2. The ending bug appears related to the Meeting Dickgirls/Hermaphrodites percentages. If it's set to Always Meet, I can't get ending better than wedding, but it's it's set to a lower value or turned off I can occasionally get higher endings.

    1. Though, I've also seen a bug where if you have Tentacle Hybrid? (as a hermaphrodite) then if a minor slave gets pregnant from you, when the birth event happens it'll treat it as if the current slave gave birth, including giving her increased minimum lust and advancing training 2 days rather than altering the minor slave (through the tentacle spawn counter for the minor slave will increment).

  3. i find a bug , if you take ramna (in your first slavee or not,dont know), the next slave "market" is all dark, you cant see anything for choosing your next slave.

  4. Hey you know you I went through that mission with the characters from Bible Black and was wondering since she's some anchient evil why not have some parts where if you earlier got the Demon Slave maker ending to affect how it plays out. Like instead of her successfully controling you since your half demon you only act like your being controled and just when she's gained enough power you turn the tables and make her a slave and everyone in the house hold your slaves as well. (It's an idea so we can get something out of that demon slave maker ending.

  5. For the custom endings, Aeris is definitely missing them, cumslut doesn't seem to work and neither do any of the pony related endings for any slaves I have tried. Playing a freelancer but selling every slave.

    1. My apolgies but why bother to post this? I said I know about the issue but I do not know the cause of some cases, but I do others. So telling me what I had posted here is not really useful.

      My apologies again, but I know about this issue.

      Please people in general, no need to re-report issues I am aware of the problems reported to date for the game and I will be fixing them.

    2. Sorry if I sounded rude or unappreciative, not feeling well and I though I had posted that I knew of the issue and was working on it.

      To clarify, I do not need any further information I can sort this out myself.

  6. in my current game, well, i was going to say energy drinks were not working at all, so then i got a few and tried them again, so i would have a save point to use, and they started working to a very small degree, giving only 1 tiredness back. this is with my second slave, Yurika. with my first slave, Shampoo, they were working fine.

  7. The Sora Issue seems to also block the Snow event in the Tentacle Queen Ending of Riesz. The workaroud of looking for Sora in the slums works.

  8. Hmm I've found a little Assistant bug.

    I'm playing a Freelancer Slavemaker and with my second slave Peach, I again chose Tsunade as Assistant. However, Tsunade now has the picture and name of Kimberly. She also lost the boni Tsunade gives, but still has Tsunades Descriptions when I talk to my slaves.
    Using an older Save, right after finishing Training for Shampoo, I do now have 2 times Tsunade to chose from for Assistant, though the one (the top name of the 2 Tsunade) beeing Kimberly.
    Kimberly herself is no longer visible as Kimberly. I picked the Assistant with the " Pick Assistant " - Option right above load and save.
    I still have the savegame in case you want / need it.

    Also, Milly (The Puppygirl at the Kennel) is treating my slaver like a woman during the Sexscene, despite him beeing male.
    This seems to happen regardless of my slave or Assistant.

    As a sidequestion, what exactly is needed to make a slave accept beeing a Puppyslave (endingwise) ?
    I got Shampoo to 51+ in Puppygirl Training, with freshly learned (did NOT select the skill) Puppygirl Training lvl 1. She visited Miss N's Party and went outside, but there was no mentioning of her fully thinking of herself as a Puppyslave. After the Wedding Ending ( Which i know is bugged right now) it still showed me that I trained a Puppygirl.

    So, do I need to get Puppygirl to 100 so that she accepts it during the Party ? Or am I missing anything ?

    1. I think you need to train Minako (Sailor Venus) first. Like for the slave Youmu, that required Sakuya training to be completed.

  10. I FOUND A TEMPORARY WAY TO FIX THE ENDINGS!!!
    Like others I haven't been able to get anything but the wedding ending until I figured out a trick to fix it to get the ending you normally would.
    Right before you complete a slave hit the option tab (you don't need to mess with anything in the settings just open them) then close out. Then complete the training. Doing that should allow you to get the special ending your suppose to. =)

    1. I can confirm this works. Major props for finding this work-around.

    2. I try to get a save right before the ending of the training, and this doesn't seem to work. In the stats afterward it also says I've trained about 7 (4 Slut, 3 Pony) slaves when I've only trained 5. Not sure if related.

      Also, I'm a freelance slave maker.

  11. I'm sorry to bother you again Cmac, but I have more bugs as well as a few suggestions for you. I'm sorry if this bug has already been reported before, but I have poor eyesight and don't want to strain my eyes looking through lots of comments.

    Earlier I mentioned that with the slave Nao I couldn't find Morrighan in the forest, nor could I train her Divinity skill. However, a few in-game days after I finished training her Morrighan appeared in my minor slaves tab out of thin air. So, I'm just updating you on another bug with Nao so that they can all be fixed in one go.

    Also, I found a bug with the slave Aeris. I dunno if this was reported before but with her, after I got the minor fairy slave Velvet I was walking in the forest (during the daytime, no less) and encounter Velvet *again* despite already getting her. I do not know if this is also the case for Frina and Alice & Bria. I suppose I could check.

    For some reason, I have never been able to access the Ruins Quest (with the Evil Mine and the zombies) in any version of SlaveMaker whenever my character is a follower of the Old Gods, and I think it's because the Ruins are already unlocked at the start of the game. I've followed the walkthrough on the Slave Maker Wiki but I'm never able to complete that quest for the minor slave Deala. I was wondering if this is a bug or just something I'm doing wrong.

    Finally, a good number of the minor slaves I purchased don't have any introductions, including minor slaves that I thought had introductions in previous versions of the game. I was wondering if this is intentional, or a bug.

    Now then, just in case you were already aware of these bugs I have some suggestions so that it doesn't look like I wasted a post. You know how you can give your minor slaves orders (such as cook, clean, play, rest and for some patrol)? Well, I'm not sure if this is possible, but if it could be done, do you think adding the ability to give *all* your minor slaves the same order in one go instead of giving each individual slave the orders would be a good idea? I mean, having to give around 50 to 100 minor slaves the order 'Play' takes a while. If you could give them all the same order with like an 'Order - All' button that would be wonderful. If you could do the same thing with contraception like 'Use Contraception - All' or 'Remove Contraception - All' that would make things more convenient too.

    1. More bad news... Again, I hope I'm not wasting your time with this. You already seem to be aware of most of the bugs, but just in case...

      While training the slave Bulma, according to the wiki to receive the three-star Dragon Ball from the sunbathing event with Roshi, you need to have her stats Charisma at 20 or more, *and* Blowjobs at 80 or more. However, when I got the three-star Dragon Ball her stars were at Charisma - 41 and Blowjobs - 13, yet I still got it without any trouble. Also... This next bug is kinda odd. I finished training Bulma, and went to train my next slave - Ayane. I took her out for a walk, and the Korin Tower location was still on my map. I clicked on it, but nothing happened. So I went back and decided to train a different slave - Nina. However, when I personally supervised a walk with her the location did not show up on my map.

      I've also noticed a bug where a slave's current love for you (the size of the red heart) has difficulty showing up in the game. It could be at a certain level but you wouldn't notice it at all. If you reload the game though then it will display properly.

      P.S. I do have a few more ideas, as well as some regarding Lady Grey and her sister (does she have a name yet?) if you're interested.

  12. Not sure if this has been mentioned before but, Nodoka(Ranma's mother) seems to be being mistaken for Nodoka the minor slave. Both in her description and I think a bit of her dialogue.

  13. Found another bug with vampirism/nocturnal training (torrent version of v3.4, with the "update3400" patch): at the end of each planning phase, the time advances by an extra hour compared to "normal" training, but entering Planning mode still takes the same amount of time. This means that, starting from the Day 1 Morning phase, vampires with low-constitution slaves only have 9 hours per day for regular training and 3 hours for sexual training, compared to 10 and 4 hours (respectively) for non-vampires. (Vampires still get the full 10 hours for the Day 1 Night phase, however.) Apologies if this has already been reported.

  14. I seem to have some sort of bug with Yurika regarding Singing, Dancing and Swimming. They're basically displayed double - once stuck at 0 for all three, and once with the correct values. Doesn't seem to do anything negative aside from a bit of garbled display text, so probably nothing crucial.

    1. Save the game. Exit and re-run and load the game. The garbling will be gone.

      If you can tell me when the overlapping starts please let me know. I have had this reported before, but to date I have not been able to reproduce it, and no one has been able to tell me do x then y, the z and it happens EVERY time.

    2. Damnit. Here I thought I was being clever by reloading first, but I didn't think of restarting the game ;) ... a'ight. I'll keep my eyes open, seeing whether this is reproducible. So far - no "luck".

      Delete
    3. First off, thank you for a great game. I think I can help you recreate the overlapping stats issue. Easiest way is to create a new SM and take the wealthy advantage, choose the mansion as your house, then take Shampoo as a slave, and any assistant. On day one, select Talk to your Slaves as one of your SM actions, and do as many actions as allowed in the time limit (2 actions in 1hr or 4 actions in 2hrs, works either way). The overlap can be recreated with any combination of slaves and housing, but it's easiest with Shampoo and the Mansion because Shampoo starts with Dancing 2, Singing 2 and Swimming 1, and the mansion comes with a minor slave. If you use any other slave that starts with 0 skill, you need to level them up before it becomes noticeable, and you need a minor slave to talk to. Hope this helps you to track down the bug

  15. I seem to have noticed that with Kyon, if I get him transformed into Kyonko, it's impossible to get her to stop being a lesbian. Her sexuality will only increase to the border between lesbian and bisexual and then it stops. Since she has an ending for getting her sexuality higher than that, I assume there is a bug with her.

  20. I'm lost on how the pregnancy mechanic works?
    Does it only work if my character is male? Or can my futa characters get the slave pregnant as well?
    When does Pregnancy occur in game? Does the LOVE stat matter?
    And does it only work with a slave I'm currently training or do they have to be my assistants or minor slaves for it to work?
    Final question, can all slaves excluding males get pregnant?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Any female or futa slave can become pregnant. Any male or futat slave or slave maker can impregnate another.

      Love does not affect it. All minor slaves can become pregnant (unless there is some story aspect that prevents it, like they are infertile) Assistants by default use contraceptives and you cannot change this unleess they decalre their love for you.

      Your slave makers is likeled in how they can become pregnant but it is possible when having sex with a futa or male slave.

      You main slave can become pregnant but is a little more restricted in the possibilities, but iti s possible

      Delete
    2. Neglected to mention the Iceni Feeldo that allows female SMs to imprgnate minor slaves, assistants, and slaves you trained but still own.

  21. Why bother focusing on pagan/witch? Don't get me wrong, balance is great and all that... I'm just not getting why this aspect in particular. The whole creation needs one big recalibration if you ask me. I don't even know where to start describing that. For the same point price you could get a skill that takes a few day to learn, or a skill that cannot be learned at all. The advantages balance is all over the place. Vampire for example feels more like a handicap than advantage, yet it actually costs points to take. Speaking of handicaps they aren't balanced either. Some of them are a temporary setback, while others will burden you for the whole game. What's the deal with "blunt" for example? As long as you don't have an origin that gives you access to refined it's 5 points for free. And what about "fangs and claws"? Where's the point in that aside from role-playing? For comparison same 10 points could get you weapon master. And while it's usefulness, with the combat the way it is, is questionable it's still incomparably better than fangs and claws.

    To get to the point, I was just trying to say that I don't see the point in rebalancing creation "one thing at a time" "once in a while". If you don't intent to deal with the entirety of it now, it's pretty much a wasted effort. So I'd advise to delay this until those perks themselves are finished (like furry actually starting to do something, "exhibitionist" having full effect, mesmerism being useful, and so on) and then reworking the balance between them all in one swoop (and a few subsequent hot-swoops, to smooth the edges). Till then you'd just be wasting effort, doing something that might end up being re-done all over.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Blunt prevents you from being given Refined and Convincing by Benten when you reach Cat Trainer 2 though. So even if your origin doesn't allow refined, it's still a bad idea to take it.

      I agree with starts being lopsided though. Several skills have no way to be acquired in normal play, others are easy to gain. It's pretty much a given that you should start with Alchemy (Witch if Female or Herm, pick old gods as religion and you can still have any birthplace you choose too, and can convert to New Gods via Benten's event), Expert Trader, Refined (if possible), Competitive and Minor Noble. All the other skills can be gained in normal play, and all other traits are flavor at best. (Though Weapon master's main draw is actually that it's a VERY easy way to earn the maximum amount while working yourself. Working for the Guild doesn't pay well until you make a solid name for yourself, but you can get Working for the Militia to 50 gold per job on your first slave pretty easily). Somewhat amusingly, Exhibitionist has an effect, a POSITIVE one. It lowers Obedience requirements on Stripping actions (Strip, Naked and Expose), so you almost have to be mental not to pick it. On the other hand,

      In fact I'd argue that it's best to start Herm and grab Converted By Tentacles no matter what gender you want you play. One of Alena's assistant events allows you to change your gender, and the other start options for Tentacle Expert involve permanent corruption, which can't be removed unlike permanent lust.

      As for Pagan VS Witch. Witch allows the sell potions option, and comes with Alchemist (a 15 point skill). Pagan only allows selling potions, imposing a 15 point tax on Male Old Gods slave makers if you want Alchemist (when Old Gods is already a weak religion choice for them to begin with) Pagan really should offer something else from a balance standpoint. Probably the worst options though are most of the "Start with X item" options, which only serve to save a little gold.

    1. A number of slaves are developed using swf and have no image folder. Felicial is one of these, you will see a file

    2. Since this type of "error" keeps getting reported, maybe it would be a good idea to create a "Images\Slaves\Felicia" folder and include a Readme.txt file stating why there's no images. Might seem like unnecessary fluff, but it could help new users a bit.

      Delete
    3. Similar to this, in the torrent Morrigan images are located in "...\images\Morrigan" and I guess they're supposed to be in "...\images\slaves\Morrigan" because her xml file points there.

    One bug I have had reported a number of times is where the skills for your slave a mixed up, overlapping with the skills from a slave you have been talking to or your assistant
    *snip*
    If you can reproduce this please let me know.
    ----
    Can't reliably reproduce it, but here is some information about this bug. It seems to happen semi-randomly. Not the first time you use a slave, but when you start saving games or using the same slave as different masters. It can also be temporarily fixed by saving your currant game, completeing your currant slave or ending the game, then re-loading the game from the 'new slave/retire/new house' screen or main menu.

    ReplyDelete
  27. I've been experimenting with reproducing this. The key seems to be that it only happens when you exhaust the four actions you get for one two-hour time block of "Talk to your slaves". If you do fewer actions than that, the effect does not occur. In my test case, I simply talked to Rhia four times. Then as the game moves on to the next time block, examining the Slave Stats 2 tab shows the symptom.

  29. For that one guy who was having problems with herm images, just turn off the lesbians love dickgirls option. If it's on then you'll have basically all lesbian images and the slaves become more bi-sexual to lesbian like if you were a full woman.. for the most part, With it off, then it should act like you are used too with only the kiss options being girl-girl and the rest being male/herm images (Now you have an easy way of deciding what kind of images you want with your SM, as you can switch the option anytime during play.)

  30. I worte this out over a few days, so keep that in mind when reading this.

    Alright I have a few bugs, right now I have, Basic Pack, Assistants Pack, Minor Slaves Pack (I think updated), Events Pack, and Slave Pack 1,2,3,4 and 7 downloaded, and the update, I'm not using anything els right now. Right now I'm just doing tests until I get all of them downloaded (My net's slow).

    The raparound for main slaves is not working, also the "Pick a Slave" bar has slaves I don't have.

    I tested 5 slaves, Shampoo, Nami, Katara, Saeko, and Saphire. On all 5 they had the sex dream with low or 0 lust, and sometimes low Ninfo, None gained any lust. With Nami I had Hild with Me, but with the rest I had Lethe. The only thing I can think of it being is I have "Sex Addict" as a Advantage, but why would that effect a slave.

    It's rare but sometimes the skills Dancing, Singing, and Swimming becomes bugged. It looks to Me like it's trying to show all the texts at the same time. Now I play it in full window mode, but it should not effect it.

    For some slaves I sometimes start with both Launchs, the first time it was with Nami. I just got them again with Saphire and Shampoo, and when you talk to Cora she says nothing about them.

    Saphire's naked pic is not showing.

    In the contest when I picked "Advanced Housework" it said "xxx slave refused to work at the brothel". I do have the apron, but I did not win the Normal Housework for the first time.

    I also went to test the slave I was working on, Zangyaku, most of the pics worked but the 7 dress ones did not. 2 are .jpg the rest are .png, they did work in 3.3.04, any idea of what's going on? She has been removed form My game since.

    Sometimes when doing "Take a Walk" the pic for the map is missing.

    I don't know if it is a bug but I have no contraceptive choices with my main slaves (or launch).


    A few ideas. (I think I might have posted 1 or more a wile a go, but I can't remember!)

    I think Leadership should be changed form 1,4,6,all+Shampoo to 2,6,12,all +Shampoo. Since We now have 120+ Assistants, 123+ shown Minor Slaves (I don't even know how many are hidden) and over 100+ Main Slaves, starting off at such a low number a bit of a joke. (I did notice a little wile ago that you now can buy a skill point for 50,000 at the end of training a slave, but that is still a lot of gold and time to get it.) (Note like the wiki My info on this is old and could have changed, so if it has been changed just forget it)

    You should be able to upgrade Cora's medical skill, so she will to tell sooner when they are pregnent and be able to do abortions. The only reason I wont abortions is cuz of the tentacle attacks, if anyone is going to knock My slaves up it's going to be Me.

    Cordelia and Severa, and Sumia and Cynthia should have a sceen after you buy the pair where they reunite and get Love, Obedience and Joy on them. The reason for Love, Obedience and Joy is you lissened to there pleas and now there happer that the other is safe,,, for now (I don't sell my slaves but others do).

    I'd also like to buy businesses and have minor slaves work in them. The idea is you can have a lot of minor slaves working so you have a income so you can foces on just training your main slave and not have to worry about gold. It's what I'd do if it was in real life, and if I would be a slave maker. Now I'm not saying make it easy, 10-25,000 for a cheap shop, and the head slave (the 1 running it for you) has to have 75-80 Obedience.

    1. Never mind about "contraceptive choices with my main slaves", it bugged 1 time before and put my main slave in "talk to slave" (I think), it's where it should be now in "take potions". But the launch problem is still there.

    2. Launch/Launch are a bug that was fixed in the last post, but only fixed for new games.

    3. I see, I was doing a new game for each, but was using the "use last" buttion. Looks like it was pulling the bug into the new game.

    4. For the "map image is missing bug," I've found if you use the button to load your game on the bottom right corner and quickly go into the Planning screen before the "Loading" image goes away, if the first action is to Take a Walk, the map won't load. You'll still get all of the clickable items and names of the locations but the map itself doesn't show.

    5. I'm also getting it after morning events where the slave pic will go missing until I click on something els (thats with any slave). The map problem on the otherhand will stick until I reload the save or game.

  31. I think I may have found a new bug not sure but I will report it anyway.

    Ever since I rejected Benten's offer to follow her after upgrading my cat slave stat. I can't seem to get Miss N to make love to my slave and I then invite us to her parties she just doesn't seem interested anymore. Unfortunately without going to her parties I cannot get the cat girl end anymore.

    I guess I shouldn't have rejected Benten but I wanted to stay with the old gods. I hope this doesn't mean I will never be able to attend Miss N's parties again without restarting :(

    Also a quick reminder of how to start the dark magic event would be lovely :)

    1. As the author of the catgirl module I can't see how refusing Benten would upset Miss N. Are you remembering to make your slave naked before visiting her? As for the Dark Magic event just accompany your slave to the library

    1. There are 3 things I can think it might be, but it's been a wile since I really played SM3 so I might be wrong.

      1. Do you have Lethe as your assistant, if so you should have them on you and won't be able to buy them.

      2. Did you Attend Court with this slave, I think you have to every new slave.

      3. I think you have to resave Lady Farun for every slave to get her to sell them to you.

      Delete
    2. As of version 3.4 you should not have to re-meet and re-save Lady Farun

    3. K I already had the ears and tail lol, thanks... Not used to there being a menu for each type of training (puppy, cat, pony.) Yet, but that is nice. (Although I had a catgirl Shampoo for my assistant, however whatever works the ears and tail were in my cat menu.) Appreciate the advice though, I probably wouldn't have found out in forever otherwise lol.

  33. Is anyone else having trouble with the assistants? A majority of them disappeared from selection after I trained Shampoo and started on my second.

    Replies
    1. I have no such reports of anything like this.

      I suspect there is something gone wrong with your save game.

      Can you try
      a) start a new game for Shampoo
      b) immediately select the :"Complete" button in the system tab.
      c) start a new slave
      Are all the assistants listed?

      Delete
    2. yeah ...uhh ever since my first run through, a lot of the assistants vanished. starting a new game does nothing. they are gone. I first re downloaded all files to see if it would happen again...and it did.
      I searched the forums and comments and saw that no one else had that problem.
      consider me an anomaly

      Delete
    3. I thought I had a similar problem, but it turned out that I had selected the box for "don't show Vanilla slaves" on the slave selection screen and that was affecting the Assistant choices, too, even thought there's no such checkbox on that screen. Which Assistants can you see?

      Delete
    4. well ill be... that was the problem. I thought that "show vanilla" box was to only show vanilla slaves when checked and show all when unchecked....then again I could never be sure since there were so many characters. mystery solved.

      Delete
    5. To clarify this I will alter the text for the checkbox and repeat it on the assistant screen

  35. I'm finding some events ridiculously common.

    Such as meeting Astrid in the forest and meeting either a sailor or Tena at the docks, like 90% of the time they happen over everything else.

    So capturing the centaur girl is next to impossible for me considering of those 10% I don't find Sailors or Tena it's an even rarer occurrence to get the bit-gag.

    Is this a bug or something or am I just stupidly unlucky?

    Replies
    1. Unlucky, sometimes I don't get Tena for 20-40 trys, and when I'm looking for Astrid I can't find her, but when I'm not that's when I get her over and over again.

    2. I think it is luck, but it might be a bug. If you can post your save game I can see if I can reproduce it

  36. This post is not really on topic, but I figure if I post here you will likely see it. I just found out about this game and I'm a furry, I am not a big fan of the furry avatars though, so I made my own. I made 4 male avatars that are based on shadow, scourge, tails and knuckles from the sonic the hedgehog series. I also made a dickgirl sonic avatar, it is kind of a mess though because it is less of a dickgirl set of pictures, and more feminine males and rule 63. They all have additional pictures (like BDSM clothes) and I know some of them work but I don't know how to test them all, so their might be problems with the additional pictures but I don't know for sure.

    Here is the link. https://mega.co.nz/#!L4ZklDyK!uFUH1tvlTaj0Ixf4K-VXHuo9nZzxaT2jr6aBgbEMoSk

    For any one reading that wants to put the pictures in their game go to slavemaker 3.4 > images > appearances. then extract the .rar file you downloaded and combine the 2 Furry folders.

    I don't know if you have ever gotten player avatars submitted but it could be interesting if you asked for them and got tons new options for player characters. I would possibly never figure out how to make a slave for the game but the 5 avatars I made only took me about an hour and a half to make, so they could probably be made rather quickly by anyone. Then again because they can be made easily I can understand if you think posting many of them can be a bad idea as you can only select your avatar by going up and down a list one at a time, so many avatars would make getting the one you want take a long time. But anyway figured I would at least share what I made.

  45. Hello cmacleod42, superb game you made!
    I love to play your versions of Slave Maker, but I have a question about the new 3.4.
    In the last version 3.3.04e and before I was able to change in the main folder of the game the "configuration.xml" file exactly the line for the Slave Maker itself

    "
    80"

    to e.g.

    "
    1000"

    and it changed the slave maker points to this new value (1000) instead of the normal value (80).

    In slave Maker 3.4.00 it does not take effect by changing the values in the file.
    I tried many various numbers from 80 - 9999999 and by activating the "Right-only" attribute but it also does not take effect.

    I hope you are able to understand my problem and probably help me solving it.

    Thanks in advance.

    1. It cut out the lines I paste in here. (-> " 80" to e.g. " 1000")
      The lines were about the slave maker customisation points. =)

    2. The node you change for 3.4 is different, and is explicitly included in the xml, see lower down, it is just
      CustomPoints
      now (I think, sorry at work no access to game at the moment)

      Delete
    3. Sure I meant this line "CustomPoints>Value</CustomPoints", but it does not change the point in the game. =/

      Delete
    4. Are you sure? It does perfectly fine for me when I start a new game. I just edited to be 700, started a new game and i had 700 points.
      Note: it has no effect at all on a game already started, just on a new game.

      Double check your edit, and make sure you have not broken the xml accidentally some where. Try opening the xml using your browser of choice and see that no errors are reported

  48. Ah, I see... Also, I know what you mean regarding Skyla since Elesa is mentioned and can even participate in her training.

    Speaking of Sophitia, shouldn't she be locked behind Princess Peach's training due to the storyline? I mean, according to her intro you have to smash her and her gang which results in her capture, which can only be done with Princess Peach.

  50. Been running into a problem with potions in 3.4.0.

    Behavior as follows:

    Initial state: Buying delayed-use potions (Soothing Draft, Energy Drink) from the Shop works, and they show up available for use from the Potions screen, under the Morning/Evening Take Potions button.

    First glitch stage: The Potions screen starts showing Dorei, Zodai, Gaman, Biyaku, Ishinai, Lust Draft, and Odd Pill, with 'Dose: undefined', in addition to whatever other potions you actually have. Taking potions still works.

    Second glitch stage: Reverts to showing only the potions you actually have, but Dose shows as 'NaN', and you cannot actually take any of them.

    My best guess is that this is caused by receiving Nymph's Tears from a random encounter at the Lake. On prior occasions when I've hit Stage 2, I remember receiving several Nymph's Tears; after I started trying to actively reproduce the bug, I've not been able to deliberately reach Stage 2, but I did hit Stage 1 right after receiving the first Nymph's Tears - and Nymph's Tears is the only one showing up with Dose: NaN.

    Anyone else seeing this?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I have had this reported by another person, but I have been unable to reproduce so far. I will check around the Nymph's tears, you may have a possible cause there

      I did change the game to prevent the NaN cases, but there the potions will disappear as their does will reset to 0, but better than corrupt data in the game.

      Still thanks, for the research and idea for a possible cause

      Delete
    2. No problem! Hope this helps with a fix.

      I've had it happen eventually to just about every game I've started with 3.4.0, even when I threw away all my save files and started from scratch; I will note it happened faster when I was still using the save files carried over from 3.3.x, if that helps.

      In the latest attempts to deliberately reproduce, I've been checking the Potions screen after each Nymph's Tears event, and it doesn't happen after all of them; however, when it does happen, reloading from the last Autosave seems to get me a clean Potions screen again.

      Delete
    3. Almost certainly the issue is from getting the Nymph's Tears at the Lake when you do not have some other potions at the time

      Delete
    4. Excellent! If that's the main cause, I'll try to make sure and have at least one potion in inventory at all times, so getting a Nymph's Tears won't mess things up.

      A couple of other things I've experienced when training Ranma:

      * Contests. In several of the contests (Housework/Advanced, Beauty, Court, XXX), I'm seeing new contest results text, with Ranma protesting about 'girl' contests; presumably part of the new 3.4 content. However: a) Whenever this message shows up, Ranma seems to automatically win regardless of the state of her stats. (i.e., winning Housework with cooking/cleaning in the 30's). b) Sometimes I get the standard 'won' message (Ranma gets x points and wins 1st place) and the cash award, but the 'contests won' tally sheet doesn't record it as a win. c) The point total always, as far as I can tell, shows up as 'NaN'.

      * Endings. I'm using the workaround mentioned earlier in the thread to make sure I get the special endings - Open the Options screen in the last day before training ends. And I can get the Lesbian Lovers ending. However, after getting that ending, Ranma doesn't appear to stay - she doesn't show in the list of slaves, or be available as an assistant. Is this a deliberate change in the ending (she would stay in 3.3), or part of the endings bug?

      Many thanks again.

  51. Cassandra has not had an official release, she was allocated a number but she is not included in any release.

    You will see in the Slave List she is noted as "unreleased"

    ReplyDelete
  52. Oh, I see... Speaking of Cassandra, how exactly do I defeat her in the arena job? I mean, I have Sophitia's constitution maxed out at 200, and even have her wearing the Valkyrie dress however no matter what I do when I have Sophitia enter the tournament for the first time then Cassandra will go into heavens Fury mode or whatever after 4 - 5 turns, and then Sophitia will take 40 damage each attack phase. I mean, can Cassandra even.be defeated in the first match?

    I mean, it would just be a bad look to have Sophitia lose her very first match in the arena. Isn't she supposed to be a badass or something? I'm just saying she would kinda look like a worthless, pathetic punk to lose her very first match. So is there a way to win her first match against Cassandra, or is the match unwinnable?

  56. Sorry if it's been asked before, but after playing this game and spinoffs like SimBrothel and Whoremaster, I would like to try making my own.
    Question: What program/tool/whatever is used to write and function scripts and such.
    I want to make one entierly text based. Like Slave Maker without pictures and more detailed text.
    Someone got some advice?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Slave Maker uses Adobe Flash using actionscript. So does for instance Corruptions of Champions that is purely text (well some images were added 'recently')

      There are some pure text scripting languages like Inform as used by Flexible Survival and other games, but I find them a restrictive language, but it depends on exactly what you want to do and how much training as a programmer you have.

      There is also the RAGS engine I have played with a bit. Also html languages like Twine,

      Maybe try Twine or similar, as limited programming skills are needed
