Ren'Py Sexbot Recalibrated [v2.00 techdemo] [LlamaMann Games]

[ViperGts151]

Well gave this a try it's not bad so far not really bothered about the dev using ai for certain things only thing I wasn't too keen on was the new lexxx model prefer the original though that's just my take will have to see how this goes going forward

 

[xskwerl]

Having played through it now, the only little thing I noticed that I didn't like was that Mai's face looked a little weird in a couple of shots right around the eyes. Not a game breaker. The only glitch I got was the duplicate Meiko in the phone screen. I like the new "engine" and the prospect of free roam. AI posters? Don't give a fuck. It's a decoration. Eye candy. IMO, for a tech demo (and the opening of the game), it's pretty sweet. Can't wait for the first chapter to drop.

ok, call me Captain Fucking-Obvious, but am i the only one who suspects SOMETHING is "off" with Mai in this "new" timeline?? she went from short, flat-chested, carrot-bodied, uggo yandere to tall, buxom, school-girl-crush-on-the-MC having, nice girl.....BUT

I know, not surprised, just perpetually disappointed. Again, any non-tards can join the discord. It's nice there

Bro, I'm in your discord and some even mentioned it there. I'm also not a freeloader, so I really hope you weren't aiming your last insults at me. I love your work, but there really feels like a quality change between the very end of the first game and the beginning of this one. I really think the models are the same but the shaders and number of quality passes when rendering have been lowered. (Who ever said the models have changed are def wrong.)

It's easy to see that you had more quality passes on your portrait sprites than you did on the scenes. You are a good dev, but you really need to stop taking stuff personal. It'll drive you crazy. Even your biggest fans will have opinions.

I'm attaching two pictures. One is the portrait sprite. One is the scene it's framed on. It's a very noticeable difference.

Once again, I'm not saying this to cause a fight. I'm simply suggesting that you render the scenes with the same shaders and passes as you did with the sprites.

You are a good dev and most of us here are cheering you on. Try to see this a helpful comment instead of an insult.

Honestly, I hope LlamaMan Games explore using AI I2I to apply certain aethtestics to the images.
Using realistic pony merges for example can generate some reasonably photoreaslitic images at low denoising strength values without lossing much detail, since pony understands most of sexual concepts already.
But honestly, more power to using AI in your workflow in general.

if the dev is on here i don't mean this as presure to rush or anything like that, but do we have any idea when the next update might be? the first game was great and this one looks like it will be no different in that regard

I really don't see what all the criticism is about, unless you guys are game dev's and have put out a product thats superior, you have no real gripe over a free game. It's not like you guys paid for the game. So put up or shut up.

I loved version 1.0 and I like the improvements so far, keep up the great work Llama, as always more Meiko is always good for me.

Cool cool, I'll send you a message when I'm back near my computer.

Still, I love your work bro. I'm def not trying to put you down.

I see this sort of concept all the time--"You haven't paid for the game; therefore, you have no right to criticize"--and I generally disagree with it. And I am referring to criticism--not complaining. Criticism and complaining are two separate things.

Why? Because devs of these games signed up to make porn games in a world overflowing with free porn; then they hope people will like their games enough to become patrons. In essence, they are hoping you will give them your money for an incomplete product, with no assurances that it will be finished, and no refunds. So if a dev is asking for money for an incomplete game, people have the right to criticize. In short, if anyone wants your money for anything, you have a right to criticize the product or service being offered.

It's a horrible system and has risks for both parties, the devs and the supporters, but it's what we got.

Moreover, whether a person is paying for a game or not doesn't determine the validity of their criticism (assuming that criticism is at least coherent). You can be paying for these games and provide horribly inaccurate criticism, or someone not paying for the game can still say something insightful.

Case in point, if you go back and look at the beginning of the original Sexbot thread, Llama was there happily interacting with F95zoners and responding to their comments, even though most weren't likely paying for the game. He seemed to welcome the comments, taking their criticism more seriously then, likely because they were the main population from which he was hoping to recruit patrons. Criticism from freeloaders was fine then, because he was trying to turn them into patrons. Same should hold true now.

All that being said, I do think criticizing a game you play for free should be done so intelligibly and responsibly. Don't just spew nonsense, in other words. Make sure you have a good grasp of what you're trying to say, etc. Punctuation . . . grammar, all that sort of jazz.

THIS is what i've been trying to do all day! yeah, side-by-side i can see the differences, but unlike many of the complainers, i can tell that they are the exact same renders, as Llamamann pointed out, just that the static image on the right looks like it was softened and worked on where the left one looks more "raw" and "crisp" if that makes sense....

 

[blabbo]

Llamamann
Any hope to get a "leaked" uncensored version of the loading image, like it happened with the previous game?

hard agree with this

 

[Basmu]

Look into JoiPlay, then you never have to ask for an android version again, you can just use the windows version.

This is what i usually do but i don't know why this version don't work on joiplay

This is what i usually do but i don't know why this version don't work on joiplay

Try updating the app and downloading the updated plugins, I also play on joiplay and had no problems

Mr Llama, first: thank you for your work, i am very much looking forward to the new game and finally being able to buy the steam version in a few weeks. <3

My opinion about tech demo: I think it was fine, the direction is interesting and allows for more creative possibilities, so great job there. Phone being a quick and easy access to scenes and other goodies is an excellent idea for convenience of the player. Well done!

This section can be disregarded completely. I don't have issues with AI art, but if you compare Steve's room and MC's room you'll notice that in Steve's room there is a 'color scheme' and tone for the art that fits it perfectly(major green/teal fantasy stylised). Meanwhile in MC's some of it clashes, and doesn't looks harmonious (look at posters near the bed - they fit perfectly, then consider posters at the window - not so much and the one next to the door featuring desert). Plus the tiny wall strip near the window is cramped with 2 posters when it's not wide enough to aesthetically support them. Please don't get me wrong, i like the room redesign but its not 'perfected' as to what it could potentially be (the room is fine, but since it will be heavily used in game, before you commit to a thousand+ renders it would be prudent to consider some alterations). Its more lived in then compared to before regardless, so its an improvement already. No changes are necessary, its not a big deal, im sure it will grow on people regardless or they could just learn to ignore those details. Its not like during some hot scene people will be sitting there staring at wall decorations in contempt and righteous anger. "How could he do this?! My day is ruined!" XD
Also pretty happy about our pal Steve finally getting a bot. Go him!

Technical issues:
The only issue i had with models was Mai - there is something wrong with the eyes or makeup, or eyelashes its hard to tell. There is something off near the eye area i can't quite put my finger on it. She is fine on the small portrait, but in renders something is off with her eyes. Maybe its lightsource issues or eyelashes. (Scene in lift, i think its probably eyelashes or lightsource. I looked at her in phone menu and she is fine there. )
There was also a tiny bug with the phone, i remember seeing Meiko having double portrait and list after her was a bit off.

Personaly looking forward to more dom Alexa(prom 2 form is still peak), Lexx mentioned something about 'taking charge' that also sounded promising. I guess futa Alexa could be cool aswell. So far you've done outstanding job so i fully believe in your creative vision.

Oh yeh would it be possible to add recalibrated to steam while its in development some time in the future? Automatic updates are very convenient. Again, - thank you for your hard work! <3

I've tried this and tried to download the old version with the renpy update but still not work the game crash when i start it :/ (on galaxy s23 ultra)

Why? Because it's true. If you want your opinion to matter, put your money where your mouth is. Otherwise you're just throwing tantrums in forums and ruining the fun for the rest of us. Also btw, complainers and bitchers on F95 always consider their bitching and complaining to be "constructive criticism". Spoiler alert... It NEVER is. The last people devs care to hear from are F95ers who contribute nothing but insults and complaints without ever supporting any devs.

The tech demo was awesome btw, and the girls looked exactly like they did in the first one.

It's mostly the plugin that needs to be the latest version you can get, and sometimes extracting the game files can go wrong due to download corruption on android I've noticed, so might have to download the game again.
