Do 4k-Premium Clips bring better Quality to lower Resolutions?
I use a 2560x1440 Screen without Premium, so using the 3k-Shows with round about 80 % Size in mini-Modus.

Now i am thinking about getting Premium and dont know, if there well be a quality-Boost with no 4k-Screen. Any experiences with Quality-Changes on my Resolution?
Unfortunately there is still no possibility to get maybe 1 4K-Demo to check out the Diference, right?

It is still a price reduction on the package of 4 cards - you can defer choosing whether to buy the package until after you have bought the third but you can never simply buy the fourth card for nothing without it being part of the package.

Now, psychologically it may feel that you are getting something at zero cost rather than a a price reduction averaged over a bigger package - but that is one of the reasons why such offers can be more effective when they are phrased as "buy three get another one free" rather than "buy four at a discount" even though they are equivalent offers.

except as part of a package of 4.

But, as part of a package of 4 ones, the 4th one was indeed technically offered for 0 credits.

You said

they are [...] not a reduction of the price of a card to zero.

which I did find not correct.

I also disagreed when you said

there is a price reduction averaged over 4 cards.

since
If you buy only 3 cards, and then you stop, there is no price reduction at all - so, no offer until you buy the 4th card; that meaning: offer is on the 4th card only, not on other ones.
It's a cashback on the last card (setting to zero the price of last card), not a 25% discount smeared on 4 cards.

@HansSachs

Is that not exactly equivalent to what I said - there is a price reduction averaged over 4 cards. There is no way of just buying whatever the fourth card is by itself for 0 credits - that fourth card was never offered for sale for 0 credits except as part of a package of 4.

The promos where a card is "given away" always require that the user has bought something first - they are a price reduction averaged over several cards not a reduction of the price of a card to zero.

I fiind this subtly incorrect.
On cashback offer, for exemple, if an user acquires only 3 (more recently, 4) cards, he has no benefit at all - while only 4th's (5th's recently) card's credit price is given back to him (provided, btw, that he really has sufficient credits in order to acquire it); - so, all that is technically far more similar to a card substantially given for 0 credits than to a 25% (or 20% more recently) discount on the whole bunch of cards.

No argument about that, but that in turn implies that cards do have a value for Totem even though selling them incurs no cost. I think you are ***** value and cost.

The promos where a card is "given away" always require that the user has bought something first - they are a price reduction averaged over several cards not a reduction of the price of a card to zero.

My assertion 1 was about cards, assertion 2 about credits.

Anyway, what you say can not change fact that

only moment when Totem earns something from us it's when we make a credit purchase

By the way, in some promos as cashbacks and others, Totem indeed does something very close to this

Totem could set the cost of buying a card at 0 credits and ***** no ill effects

@Carstrip....Bingo!!!!...does not completely solve the problem, but it is very close to what I want.

The scene goes well through 3 phases:
Intro, Background 01, Background 02

@HansSachs


Yes you said

there is no monetary value associated to a card.

but you also said

Credits have just the value you give to them - for you
No value at all - for Totem

all of which are, in my opinion, subtly incorrect. Indeed if the last were true then Totem could set the cost of buying a card at 0 credits and ***** no ill effects - which is obviously not true.

There is no direct monetary value associated to a card. But Totem do get an indirect benefit from each sale of a card - and could express this in as an equivalent monetary value if they wished to (at its crudest it would be total income from credit sales over some interval divided by number of cards sold during that interval).

but they get a benefit when we spend them because spending them brings us nearer to having to send more "real money" if we want to continue to buy cards.

Indirect benefit, not monetary neither immediate benefit - as I did earlier say

there is no monetary value associated to a card.

@HansSachs - That is true for any any token currency, technically fiat currency - including dollar bills and the like.

Credits cost Totem nothing to issue (at least no direct costs) - but they get a benefit when we spend them because spending them brings us nearer to having to send more "real money" if we want to continue to buy cards.

When I say that credits cost nothing to issue that is true, but that does not mean that they can freely "give away" credits as that would affect future sales of credits (not of cards).

@TheEmu
I totally disagree:
Credits have just the value you give to them - for you
No value at all - for Totem

Indeed, only moment when Totem earns something from us it's when we make a credit purchase, not - at all - when we acquire cards in the store nor when we do gamble games.

@HansSachs

Yes there is a value assocciated with the cards. iStripper credits are themseves a currency even though they can not be converted back into regular cash and this would be would true be even if it was not possible to buy them with "real world" currency. The wording of the licence is such that we can not claim that credits have a real world cash value, but that does not mean that they have no value

"Value" is not the same as "monetary value".

There is value associated to the cards.

No, Istripper credit is not a currency and it can not - never - be converted back into real money; neither can a card be sold or traded in any way - so there is no monetary value associated to a card.

After almost a week,
I got the new badges on the achievement page yesterday, but clicking on them I still could not make them bigger until this morning.
I think only think to do is just waiting (it's a very small issue after all).

@Wyldanimal,

I closed and restarted the router. No change.

The image is located where in the cache5, can we introduce the news manually in this one?


@Wyldanimal,

J'ai fermé et redémarré le routeur. Pas de changement.

L'image se situe où dans la cache5, peut-on introduire la nouvelle manuellement dans celle-ci ?

The topic of this being gambling has been brought up before.

The gambling aspect is null and void.

No monetary value of credits or cards means no consequences.

If you have a full collection play until your hearts content you will or "should" have better odds to get joker cards compared to others.

You are not exactly correct. There is value associated to the cards. This has been brought up multiple times and each time I can tell who has and has not looked in to the topic or had discussions on it previously in regards to the greater aspect of loot boxes and MTX in software.

This is actively being looked in to in multiple countries within the software realm and likely will ultimately be ruled as gambling with requirements put in place for complaince. Right now there is a hole in laws/tax codes and like normal law is behind technology (which is normally the case).

The UK as an example has a call of evidence in place until November 22nd.

With Beligum they restricted it to under 18 for a ban so that does not apply at least for now.

In order I have the Badges images as they came out

Maybe from that we can tell, which one of the Images is Cached on your System..

I believe it was the 2nd image that Introduced the 1000 and 3000 collection Badge.
Since your page stops with them, maybe that is the one stuck in your cache.

Also, your Router could also have a cache
so power down and restart your router.
Since the Name of the resource has not changed, it could be cached external to the iStripper app.

Melisa has a very beautiful one, maybe the best one for me.

All of them!!😊

@ComteDracula,
i mean the ddisplay of the small images.
But also when i click on them the correct ones are displayed.

I have the new cache5, and so far all I have after 3 program restarts and a few syncs is this, for the last 4 badges.

I do not understand. because this is the first time that I have this problem with the badge images.



J'ai la nouvelle cache5, et pour l'instant, tout ce que j'ai après 3 redémarrages de programme et quelques synchronisations est ceci, pour les 4 dernières badges.

Je ne comprend pas. car c'est la première fois que j'ai ce problème avec les images des badges.

A Resource Image, is a Large Image that Contains Many Small Images.
it could be a Single Row of images
or
Multiple Rows and Columns.

Every single smaller image has the Same dimensions.
So you Can Reference a Single Resource image by using it's Grid location.

The App is Programmed to use the Grid location to fetch one of the single images from the
larger Resource Image.

If that Larger Resource image is Not the Correct one
Then what is Displayed will Not be Correct,
because the Small image at the Grid Location Requested, will be the Wrong Image returned.

Example
https://www.istripper.com/img/badge/badges.png

That is the Large Resource made up of
a grid of 7 columns and 8 rows
of Smaller Images 250 x 300 pixels in size.

That is the Most Current Achievement Badge Resource.

if your system has the Older Resource Cached.
Then you will not see the Correct Badges Displayed on your Achievements page.

The Badge for the 1 year Anniversary is Row 1, Column 1
The Badge for the 12 year Anniversary is Row 2, Column 5

because the Images are all the same size 250 x 300
Just having the Row and Column location, the correct Single Image can be Displayed from the Much larger resource Image.

Note: A resource File, Might contain Many images, But that Resource File may Not Actually be a Displayable Image.
It's Just a File that Contains many Smaller Files that can be Accessed from Within It's Contents in an Organized way.

Not All Resource Image Files can be Displayed as an Image itself.
The badges resource, Just Happens to be in a Format that it can be displayed as an Image.

Hi I'm new.

What's your favorite 2 girl card?

@SpaveInvader,

Are you talking about the small images at the end in the program interface, and not those of these same badges (achievements), which are displayed when clicked?

Because I see these when I click on them, but not the ones at the end of the program badges page.

I tried @Wyldanimal solution again and will see it in the next few days.

I will come back here to say if these eventually appeared.


@SpaveInvader,

Vous parlez bien des petites images à la fin dans l'interface du programme, et non de celles de ces mêmes badges (achievements), qui s'affichent lorsqu'on clique dessus ?

Car je vois ces dernières lorsque je clique dessus, mais non celles à la fin de la page des badges du programme.

J'ai réessayé la solution de @Wyldanimal et vais voir dans les prochains jours.

Je vais revenir ici pour dire si celles-ci ont fini par apparaître.

@Cartrisp: Please...don't stop sharing things...I'm your number 1 fan and of @stanston...and all of us who do things. Between all of us we have more netretenido this.
Reviewing scenes again...I understand...it gives allergy...one gets a little saturated.
I leave the scene in future projects and having time, I give it a few touches maintaining your original style. 👍

I started to sketch a little in photoshop and would do something like this:
The girl in the room, she opens the door slowly and then changes the whole environment.
Doing this is feasible, I already saw that I can load 2 and more scenes with animation and alternate them, but I can't control the challenge time.

Thanks alot for this beauty

Hi @7171al71 😉
Yes its a great image, has heaps of potential for an 7171al touch, it was a great find that one. No I dont have photoshop or any editing program whatsoever.
That scene took me about 2 hours to make (which was not a lot of effort compared to other ones I've made lol, Lush Motel took 10hrs!!)
Feel free to add to it if you like 😎
Unfortunately Standard answer from me again about scenes, when I'm finished with them I dont like "re-visiting" it. I'm slowly losing interest in Istripper and moving on to other projects that are out there that are taking up my time, And I think I've added quite a few new additions to everones scene collections during my short time on here since April.
So you are totally free (as is everyone) to add your touches to this scene and make it awesome, thats what Sharing fullscreens is all about, and I look forward to seeing your creative contributions 😊

@MikeyDream
Chrome on mobile is the best imo. I strongly suggest saving the page to homescreen as a web app. That way you have all the benefits of an installed app with no storage space used. The web app version strips away the adress bar and formats it to look just like an android app with it's own unique app Icon. Just tap on chrome setting and tap save to home screen.

Every Chromium based mobile browser is great - I'd suggest using Brave, it's basically Chrome without the spying and tracking. Has the exact same features and speed as the normal Chrome app since, well it's based on Chromium.

And nearly every mobile browser has this add to startscreen feature so choose whatever you like.

We're here to answer your questions :)

What are the chances of getting a SEC vs getting 1 to 5 cards?

If you offer to "answer questions" but you dont "answer a question", then that is fake propaganda

In this game people with full collections can't participate and there are no joker cards to win, only SECs.

I stand corrected. It's worst than I thought.

@Carstrip: The photo is very good!!!!...it gives to do many things. Opening doors and other crazy things that come into my head. I'm going to retouch it a bit and I'll send it to you when I can. There is a trick to soften the shadow of the wall and reflections from the floor.
Do you use Photoshop?

@Jununger,
i did also the suggestion from Wyld with deleting the cache5 folder, but it didn't worked instantly.

On the next day as i started the GUI all 4 new Achievements were displayed correctly.

good

Too much gambling here... I'm not a guy with much luck. maybe better promotions will come in the future...

What would happen in the ***** case that Totem did go out of business. Would we be able to continue to play the cards that we have purchased over the years on the last client released by Totem?

That question has been asked a number of times In the Past,
The CEO's of Totem, REX and HERVE, have always said,
that if it ever came to that, they would release a non protected version,
so that your cards were still your cards..

@MrHouse you're right, the only concert would be if Totem closes. If it ever happen, it won't be an overnight thing and we'll be able to release a version with no protections (there is no garanty that we would do that, but if you look at our ethics and what we did the past 12 years, odds are good). If such a version would not be released by us, someone esle would either create a player (see what happen to DVD on Linux) or hack the latest version and remove that protection. The only reason hacked versions like that don't surface today is because we keep inovating (software, quality etc), if we ever stop, then it won't be hard to find the lastest version with no protection.

I hope this answers your concerns, the last thing I want is for you to worry about keeping your collection. Let's talk about it again in another 12 years and see at how many girls we have then ;)

@boone209 - I am on .266 same as yourself and when I tick or untick the one-click purchase, it activates or de-activates immediately.

@boone209

It certainly was not a "no turning back" choice in the past - I did once enable it (only in order to qualify for the associated accomplishment badge) and disabled it a couple of days later with no problems.

Try resynching or quiting and restarting the software to see if that makes a difference.

Oh - you get the "Rocket Man" badge if you have ever used one click click purchasing, but you keep the badge even if you then disable the option.

My one-click purchase is active despite my settings having the box unchecked.

I've submitted a ticket to have this fixed. If it's a "no turning back" choice (why that would be the case is open to speculation), it needs to be VERY clearly stated up front with additional confirmation.

What are the chances of getting a SEC vs getting 1 to 5 cards?
Don't expect Totem to answer this question.

You have to be willing to accept cards you do not want in an effort to obtain cards you might want. For me, that's a hard pass.

Genshin Impact does a nice job showing the rates on characters you can get when rolling for them. So people know also what they can expect to get.
https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Wishes
This is from the website but ingame you also see the percentages of what you can get...

Here they don't.
