Some Modeling Agency – Version 0.24.1 f0

Changes

• Models’ willingness to advance to the next modeling type now depends not only on their consent toward the manager/boss but also on their overall Modeling Exp.
• When a model is in the office, she will accept all interactions allowed by her current modeling type. During jobs, interactions will depend exclusively on the job contract.
• The main character can now gain Management Exp. Higher Management Exp increases the chances of successfully referring models to other agencies and allows the manager to negotiate better commissions and salaries for newly hired models. Existing models will keep their previously agreed salaries and commissions.
• The Models Info panel now displays each model’s current modeling type and Modeling Exp.
• The Characters Info panel now displays the player’s Management Exp, representing their experience managing the agency.
• Modeling Exp is now calculated based on the interactions that occur during a session rather than completed objectives. Job/Activity Exp will still be calculated based on completed objectives.
• Custom Pose Edit Mode now always starts with all high heels disabled, making custom poses compatible with both high heels and regular shoes. Custom poses previously saved with high heels may have overly rotated feet. Sorry about that!
• The Models Info panel now also displays the type of reputation a model is currently building. This will be used in a future game mechanic.
• Models will now automatically pose when the player asks them to practice, provided they are standing in front of a light or on the podium.
• The professional camera now generates interactions only for the center of the camera’s frame.
• All agencies now have less demanding requirements for accepting models.
• Models are now more willing to take risks when attempting to join another agency after being referred to it.
• Positive relationship buffs with other agencies now last longer.
• The pose transition system works much better now, even when wearing high heels!
• Poses, models, gestures, outfits, and most other files are now loaded asynchronously, preventing the game from freezing when loading large amounts of content, such as thousands of portraits.
• The number of available vacancies for hiring models has been doubled.
• Minor adjustments to desire gain and decay.
• Minor adjustments to pupil dilation.
• Spa Job: Default client payments, tips, and base income have all been doubled, significantly increasing the total income generated by the Spa Job.
• Spa Job: If a model’s favorability and desires become sufficiently high, she may now offer herself to clients.
• Hired models’ portraits can now be updated.
• Favorability changes from buffs, agreements, and contracts now have their own context, preventing them from feeding back into or conflicting with each other. This should improve most Favorability-based calculations, including bribes, auto-rating, and overall corruption.
• The Favorability corruption bonus has been increased, and an issue that caused the bonus to be applied three times to holes has been fixed.

Fixes

• Fixed a serious bug: Entering Custom Pose Edit Mode could modify the all renderers of the scene. If you accidentally clicked a bone and then selected empty space or a model’s body, this could break the GPU deformations used by both the models’ skin and internal holes, causing them to render incorrectly.
• Fixed missing objectives when interviewing models.
• Fixed an issue that made it extremely difficult to get other agencies to accept models.
• Fixed an issue where some models refused shoulder massages and other agreed-upon or contracted interactions.
• Fixed an issue where bone guides could appear far away when starting Custom Pose Edit Mode.
• Fixed incorrect exposure calculations for interactions involving pulling clothes. Models could believe they were more exposed than they actually were. For example, pulling down her pants could make her believe she was no longer wearing underwear, even if she still was. This could cause her to become angrier or more frightened when her clothes were removed.
• Fixed the “Bleached” agency searching for models with the wrong skin color.
• Fixed async-loaded panels resetting their scroll position.
• Fixed a dialogue bug that occurred when promoting a submissive model to a higher modeling type.
• Fixed conflicts between Favorability modifiers caused by corruption. Models will now accept interactions as long as their actual Favorability value is high enough, regardless of the corrupted/modified value shown by individual modifiers.
• Fixed an issue where most sensors continued updating even when disabled or unused, wasting CPU resources.
• Various other minor fixes.

Known Issues

• The “Allow your lens to capture her most intimate area while she poses for it” objective cannot currently be completed while the model is posing by herself. For now, you need to manually put her into the required pose, as before.
• When practicing modeling, models should not perform poses that emphasize their breasts or buttocks (whether clothed, in underwear, or completely naked) unless they have consented to those poses.
• When starting a practice session after a model has been sitting, the practice poses may load near the surface where she was sitting instead of on the podium or in front of the light.
• The localization toggle does not work correctly after returning to the main menu. The player must restart the game for the change to take effect.
• Changing the hand restraint direction from gravity-based to hand-palm orientation caused some issues. Models may appear to repeatedly grab and release surfaces. The restraint direction should remain primarily gravity-based, with only a slight influence from the orientation of the palms.
• Overseeing a model’s work should increase Management Exp even when the work is unrelated to modeling.
• The camera tool’s image appears too dark during the Photoshoot Job. This issue is particularly difficult to fix because it only occurs in builds.
• If a model is practicing and another secondary interaction executes simultaneously, she may attempt to fly away.
• When hiring a model, some inputs conflict while attempting to cancel the current portrait and immediately take a new photo. The phone’s mode can also be changed when it shouldn’t be. This may cause the portrait to be saved incorrectly.
• Spa Oral Service: There is no natural lubrication for the mouth, so some dicks are simply too big for a model to comfortably perform oral sex on a client. I’ll fix this.
• Player controls remain active when an input field is displayed. For example, pressing F while the pose name input field is open can still trigger player actions.
• Capturing a model’s “back door” can be difficult when she has very curvy proportions.
• Oral sex is still somewhat glitchy. I’ll tweak it again.
• The main light no longer follows the model when it is set to follow her.
• Some text in the End Session panel is still missing localization.
• Phone and camera images are still incompatible with X-rays.
• Disease treatment and recovery are currently too slow.
