I have one pretty big issue though. When my PC starts, iStripper prominently launches on my PC in a non-minimized mode.

If you add -fromSilent to the target command in the properties of the shortcut used to start Stripper then it will start minimised. This was discussed in a few posts in the older thread devoted to this Beta release. For more details see, for example

https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/52963/7?post=764105

I like most everything about the new version after using it for some time now. Some UI issues I had before are fixed, and the performance is much improved. It also is a more immersive program.

I have one pretty big issue though. When my PC starts, iStripper prominently launches on my PC in a non-minimized mode. I minimize it, and then once again it pops up on my screen, showing everyone that I have this on my PC.

I can disable start on system start, but I don't remember having to do this before. But maybe my memory is just bad. I have the setting checked that says "start disabled", but that doesn't help with this issue.

No problem. 👍 😎

Thank you very much for your answer @Socialhazard 👍

Les habillages fonctionnent dans cette version et j'ai essayé certains des habillages sombres fournis par les membres. Bien que certains textes puissent être difficiles à lire ou invisibles dans certaines situations avec les skins foncés, comme avec les versions précédentes. Si vous utilisez actuellement une apparence foncée, le résultat devrait être le même. Je vous conseille d'essayer la version bêta. Vous pouvez toujours revenir en arrière.

Skins do work in this version and I tried some of the dark skins provided by members. Although some text may be hard to read or invisible in certain situations with dark skins as with previous versions. If you are currently using a dark skin it should look much the same. I would try out the beta. You can always switch back.

Sera t'il possible dans cette nouvelle version d'utiliser un skin (pour ma part j'utilise un mode sombre) ou y aura t'il un mode sombre ?
Dans le cas contraire, je ne passerai pas sur cette nouvelle version sauf si j'y suis obligé.
Ayant été opéré de la cataracte, je ne supporte plus les couleurs vives tel que le blanc.

@mkst, thank you for your reply.

I checked with hwinfo and the fan speed of my GPU goes up and down depending on the scene.

For example, in scene ET-FG061A, the fan spun up to a peak of 2139 rpm.

My graphics card is up to date. There must be a bug that causes performance overlay not to detect the fan speed.


@mkst, merci pour votre réponse.

J'ai vérifié avec hwinfo et la vitesse du ventilateur de mon GPU augmente et diminue selon les scènes.

Ainsi pour la scène ET-FG061A, celui-ci a tourné jusqu'à un pic de 2139 rpm

Ma carte graphique est à jour. Il doit y avoir un bogue, qui fait que performance overlay ne détecte pas la vitesse du ventilateur.

Cute

GPU is my Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card, 3GB, on my desktop PC.

It does have a fan, so yeah, weird the overlay reports fan speed N/A. Maybe double-check GeForce Experience software and drivers are up-to-date.

Could also check fan speed with other software, like hwinfo.com, as a check that the issue is with NVIDIA software/drivers.
I'd personally visually verify the GPU fan is spinning.

94C is GTX 1060 max temp spec.

So, while 84C is below the max temp spec, that's pretty toasty. I suppose it's normal while running demanding graphics relative to your GPU capability.

GTX 1060 was released August 18th, 2016 - 7 years is pretty old in technology time.

@mkst GPU is my Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card, 3GB, on my desktop PC.

@ComteDracula What GPU? Is it a notebook PC?

@HansSachs

Once again, as many times before, we actually agree about this (especialy the card re-sizing issue where I have posted a quite long exposition as to why the new system is far worse than the slider). I regret some of the changes but there was no ***** involved. If you re-read my posts they were all about the use of the word "*****", a word which grossly overstates the matter.

That "*****" would last for just about the 10 minutes or less it takes to get used to the new version.

Sorry, no.
While it's true one needs not much time to get used to graphical and logistic changes, anyway - even if maybe I would not have used word "*****" - personally I am going to miss and regret the disappeared possibility to resize my cards on Store and collection everytime I'll open the new version - which at the moment I did uninstall - for quite a long time, probably years.
Moreover, this is not the only function which I regularly used, and which I was very happy about, to have been removed for unclear (if any) reasons on the new version.

As it is now the official release version you should be able to get it via the normal update option on the app's own settings page or via the web site. (I have not tested those routes as I was running the beta anyway)

This is, quite strangely, not true. I can tell that i am using 1.2.378 and today, as a few days ago, clicking on the Update option I still am answered that "my version is up-to-date".

Please, follow this thread https://www.istripper.com/fr/forum/thread/53016/1?post=764411

Duplicated thread closed.

...The ***** of having to change your comfort level to sometimes you do not want...

That "*****" would last for just about the 10 minutes or less it takes to get used to the new version. The changes, other than the abandonment the carousels, are very *****. The program's GUI has changed in much more significant ways before now. I regret the loss of the carousels, but that loss was in no way *****.

💖
Even before you got the title you were number 1 for me. thank god he made you.😘💖💖💖

There is no longer a "don't stop music at the end of clips" option in "advanced settings". Why???

Sounds like too much of a ***** for me. I'll just stick with what I have until I have no option and get thrown into the vat you guys have jumped into. :-D LOL

Exactly this !!!

I will stick with my 3.60 version until I see 2 things done, or kept (or redesigned ok):
1- 64b version
2- Carousel(s) showing models full size (the all figure, their beautiful legs, the way outfits play on their bodies, the type of outfit, ...

Edit (because I see now TheEmu's answer) :
...The ***** of having to change your comfort level to sometimes you do not want... I (we?) are here for the models, not necessarily for the fancy software and the flashy things.
If something fits your needs, having the latest "It's a Revolution! I offer you the latest Apple I582blablabla" thing can ***** your comfort level if your goal is simply to have fun, and keep it simple.
***** is probably too strong a word, and uncomfort is probably better. English is not my language and I am sure you can find a better word.
But it is not an option in an environment where pleasure is a must. And it can start with a little thing, you know, like the little stone in your shoe or the sand left between your toes after walking on a beach...
As we are all different, comfort and desires are felt differently. If you feel ok with a change, fine, If you don't feel it is really needed, fine either.

Thanks @TheEmu for the clarifications in link to my questioning. 😊

Merci @TheEmu pour les clarifications en lien à mon questionnement. 😊

Is it also normal that the latency rate is high and the FPS lower with these scenes that use 100% of my GPU, which can sometimes cause slight jerks in the movement of the girls?

If you have 100% GPU (orCPU) usage then you should certainly expect some degree of jerkiness. That 100% figure will be the average over some period (rounded to the nearest displayed digit so maybe it's as low as 99.5%). During that period the usage will vary having peaks and troughs. If on a slightly faster system those peaks would exceed 100% of the capabilities of your GPU this will cause your GPU to lag. If the delay caused by this lag can not be eliminated before the next end of frame then there will be some stuttering or jerkiness. Being so heavily loaded will also make it sensitive to other things that are happening on your system due to competition for resources. (In reality, of course, things will be more complicated than that).

You can get, and I have seen, the same effect in any hard real time system and in many soft real time systems if the processor loading is low near the start of frame but has a high peak near the end of frame. I have seen it even when the average processor loading was low, less than 50%, and can in theory occur when the loading is very low.

OK thanks @Wyldanimal. And for the speed of my fan, I do not understand that it is always written N/A?

Is it also normal that the latency rate is high and the FPS lower with these scenes that use 100% of my GPU, which can sometimes cause slight jerks in the movement of the girls?


OK merci @Wyldanimal. Et pour la vitesse de mon ventilateur, je ne comprend pas qu'il soit toujours écrit N/A ?

Est-ce normal aussi que le taux de latence soit élevé et les FPS plus basse avec ces scènes qui utilise 100 % de mon GPU, ce qui peut parfois causé de légères saccades dans le mouvement des filles. ?

84c ahh, your GPU is just warming up. That's about a Normal Temp for a GPU..
Pushed to the limits, Modern GPU can reach 110c and still run fine.
Below 90c is a normal range.

Thanks @EverthangForever and @Wyldanimal.

Is it dangerous for my GPU that the temperature goes up to 84°c with certain scenes, and stays at that level? Obviously in these situations the GPU is used at 100%. In these situations, I don't let the scene run for long. This also happens with lower-resolution cards, as for example with Asley Robbins - Hard Rock (720p), for scene ET-FG061A and also for scene ET-FGA048. As I usually notice with this kind of scene, the FPS is around 32-36 and the render latency for these two scenes is 88 ms, and depending on the girl, can be 100ms and more.

Another thing: according to NVIDIA's Performance Overlay, it's always written N/A for fan speed. Is this "normal"?


Merci @EverthangForever et @Wyldanimal.

Est-ce dangereux pour mon GPU que la température monte jusqu'à 84°c avec certaines scènes, et se maintienne à ce niveau ? Évidemment dans ces situations le GPU est utilisé à 100%. Dans ces situations je ne laisse pas la scène fonctionner longtemps. Cela arrive aussi avec des cartes à plus basse résolution, comme par exemple avec Asley Robbins - Hard Rock (720p), pour la scène ET-FG061A et aussi pour la scène ET-FGA048. Comme je le remarque habituellement avec ce genre de scènes les FPS sont autour de 32-36 et le render Latency passe pour ces deux scènes de 88 ms et peut aller selon les filles autour de 100ms et plus.

Autre chose il est toujors écrit N/A pour la vitesse du ventilateur, selon Performance Overlay de NVIDIA. Est-ce "normal" ?

Edit: This is a bit Off topic in the share thread.
But I had to share it.. For SIF Memory is the limit..
So I though if I reduced the raw image size to 1/4 I should be able to get almost 4 times the number of frames.
Here is a 2500 frame SIF scene. 2500 images with 2500 timers !!

Intended for Scene Creators.
if you dabble with editing scenes using a text editor, this is for you too.
This is not Plug and Play
you need to understand a little bit about scene editing.

Feel Free to try it, and play with it if you dare...

SIF - SceneImageFliping
We can't use Video clips as backgrounds in our Scenes.
But we can use a sequence of Images, and Timers, to have the images Fade to invisible, exposing the Image hidden
under it.
So if we create a Stack of Images, and fade them away one by one, we get an Image ***** Animation.

To Build these manually, takes a lot of time and effort.
So I wrote an App to Automate the process.

Give it a bit of information
Click a button, and It Builds the Scene for you,
Copy and Paste it to your Text editor
Save it to Your Scenes folder.

and that's all there is to it.


Here is a Special Scene Folder with my SIF app in it
Along with a subfolder of 789 captured images to try it out with.
There are also 2 HOWTO video clips 001 and 002

You can run the SIF app from with in this scene folder.
It Builds the Scene and Displays it, in it's own Text Box.
A button will copy all of the scene Text to the clipboard
so you can then Paste it in to your favorite Scene Editor.

This Version does not yet have the save file code in it.
a Future update will let you save the Text directly from the app.

https://virtuastripper.net/WA-SIF.zip

Depending on your system Specs, you might not be able to run a scene with 789 images in it.
So I would Start with 120 image, then increase to 250, then to 500, and then try the 789 images.

I tried one with 800 images, and iStripper ran out of memory on my system.

The Wheel of Bargains
Every Spin is a Winner, if you Choose to Buy what you Won.
You Always Win a Discount towards the 4 cards Shown. You MUST purchase ALL 4 of the Cards from the Wheel Results.
You DO NOT go to the Store to Purchase them.

Some Spins will Award the 4 cards for FREE.
Most Spins only Allow you to Purchase the 4 Cards for the Discounted Price shown on the Wheel.

So Yes, every Spin is a winner, but you have to Choose to purchase the prize.

To Be able to Play.
you Must have 4 or more cards available in the Store Older than 45 days old.

Full or almost Full Collections, will not have enough available cards
and won't be able to Spin the Wheel.

More specifically, it's a gambling game.

The description of the Golden Ticket says that "You can win...", not that you will win.

However, the wording for the Wheel Of Bargains says "Spin for 1 credit and get one of ..." which taken literally does indicate that you will win something, though almost certainly that is not the case (not having tried I don't know, so maybe it is).

It's a game, so if you're not ready to lose, just don't play

I am a new user and I wanted to get more cards for 100 credits and in the end just 0

why is there no warning that nothing may fall out in The golden ticket.

Sounds like too much of a ***** for me.

What ***** ?

If it's the ***** of having to make the extra effort to install it then that has gone away as it is now available via the regular update mechanisms. Just go to the settings page and have it install from there.

If it's ***** arising from the one, rather ***** bug, then that has gone away as it has been fixed already (though I see an even more ***** variation of it).

Otherwise there is little more than a ***** rearrangement of things in the GUI.

Sure, there have been quite a few comments about relatively ***** points, some of which Totem have already said will be changed to meet the users' expressed wishes (and at least two of which were either fixed immediately or "just went away").

Sounds like too much of a ***** for me. I'll just stick with what I have until I have no option and get thrown into the vat you guys have jumped into. :-D LOL

I have a p[c, but get a 404 error when I click the link for the beta. Did it move or is it still available to try?

@Kuraihoshi

Also, when buying shows, any chance of rounding off costs to the nearest whole credit

That, almost inevitably, would result in the prices being rounded up - and complaints about it even if it only happened half of the time. I have seen a few complaints here about the rounding that is currently done at the hundreth's of a credit level.

It's kind of annoying to me to have 0.46 credits instead of an even 0cr, or have a show cost 17.75cr instead of 18 or 14.25 instead of just 14cr.

Are you equally annoyed with real money ? Think of the credits just as you would about Dollars and Cents, Euros and Cents or Pounds and Pence,

I should of learned from past betas with this company. and I will leave it for others as the software is rushed out with bugs every timeto all that simply criticize beta software issues... it seems you have no experience of software testing/debugging.Totem may have 6 or so people available to test software .. so it could take many months to find and resolve any bugs. Instead, they offer a beta test version to those members that want to help (it is not 'rushed out with bugs'). Now with hundreds of people testing and reporting bugs, the product will mature faster for release.Please don't just criticize beta software... help if you can ... avoid if you can't

I still test from other developers with no problem and have beta tested for many others over the years. I just think its rushed without more of an attempt to fish out the bugs before realeasing it. I myself have crashing problems with the software and its worse with this beta and that comes after them adding a crash reporter to the software and my problem still is not fixed. I mean come on I can play gta 5 or any game I want for hours but running this for an hour I risk a chance any time it will crash lol. I get though get a better computer that should work.

Indeed, this new UI is the very very start of what iStripper V2 will be :-P🤗;

The biggest problem I have with the new interface is that it all but overflows my screen at 1920x1080, and if I try to reduce the iStripper window, it cuts off the pic of the model on the side. Any chance you could change this so that the entire window re-scales if resized so that we can still see the model instead of having her cut off, or even being able to select window size in settings, please?

Also, when buying shows, any chance of rounding off costs to the nearest whole credit rather than fractional credits? It's kind of annoying to me to have 0.46 credits instead of an even 0cr, or have a show cost 17.75cr instead of 18 or 14.25 instead of just 14cr.

We would need back a slider in order to resize cards on Store and Collection page according to our needs/preferences. It was an useful and appreciated function, and had no reason to be removed.

It would also be good to get back the X (close) button on the right of some pages which unexpectedly don't feature it anymore. Thanks in advance

well deserved <3
my only wish is that you would tell the girls to dance a little more, so it fit with music

@Calgon The "Now playing / Playlist" tab will be back on the FullScreen page in the next Beta, that should be released next week :) AND it will not slide back anymore when you change of page : it will remain like you left it :)

Thanks, that has been a major annoyance for me in the beta. 👍

New version coming that fixes the old Windows issue on Tuesday according to Guillaume in Discord. Also, if you are running older windows right now it is detected and you are offered .378 on istriper.com, not .512

I am looking forward to the new version very much, it will fix one of my specific issues!

Guys - I cannot comment on what you are saying (and it is another holiday weekend in France so it will be Tuesday before you get a response) but if anyone has issues with 1.2.512, then the previous version is here

https://www.istripper.com/binary/beta/1_2_378/setup-istripper.exe

The version 1.2.512 / 513 is now the Official Release version, It is no Longer Beta.

In which case either @Celine should not have called it a Beta when she said

Still hesitate to upgrade to our Beta version ?

or there should have been an announcement of there being a new official release.

Referring to an official release as a beta (or vice versa) is only going to exacerbate the problem with naive users not knowing what something being a beta version means.
