We need a pissed off award....

Maybe a rant and rave award...

(it can show two dancers fighting over a 420 badge)

@SetFuego that sounds like a very slow *****, and also that really has not achieved anything more but small tweaks to the gaming system and not a total collapse.

And that is exactly what I want to achieve. A constant, small indisposition on the part of those responsible for it. In this profit-oriented business, the big all-round blow is not (no longer) possible anyway, but to show small limits.

This is just my tiny, insignificant opinion (maybe 2ct 😉) that I live by.

SE/gambling is easy money for totem... it is like giving a teacher smart students, a police officer a safe community, a soldier a peaceful enlistment...human nature is to soften or become lazy when things are easy especially if working hard doesn't necessarily make you more money. That is the ultimate worry with any easy money. The company will continue to invest in ways to make easy money while drifting away from providing a service. And the teacher becomes lazy, the police officer fat, and the solider untrained. Or it may be that SE/gambling just makes enough to take some pressure off and gives totem some room to take chances and make the product better. I hope the latter.

Those that think these sorts of games are just innocent side project haven't paid attention to the gaming industry. The entire industy has been completely changed by loot boxes and games of chance. Entire games are built around the mechanic, meaning they aren't games anymore but mechanisms to get people to gamble. That is my biggest worry with istripper, it slowly becomes an overlay for a gambling program.

@DANO70

From what E.T. said in his posts @Z22 's were not working for him in any version includeing ours.

Thats correct. I have not been able to compile properly the Hue 2+3 ones in any iStripper version . It just comes up as noise with a faint diagonal band of noise bottom left to upper right of the screen. The only scene that works is the one containing the original Hue.fsh
Screencap is from Z22_Hue3
Might be something corrupted in download. All the Metaglass, motion feedback & others work fine
I'll delete all the Hues from /scenes, redownload and extract again. See what eventuates then..

Under Categories click on the "Sport " . Shes a maniac ,... Maniac! , iM SURE TOO KNOW " ,....

@SetFuego that sounds like a very slow *****, and also that really has not achieved anything more but small tweaks to the gaming system and not a total collapse.

@Orclover, @SetFuego good valid points so what's the next step... how does one change the mindset of the masses?

Not at all @Ironman79, not necessary and not possible. Just keep appealing to the conscience of the exploiters of weaknesses by repeatedly pointing out the *****.

@Orclover, @SetFuego good valid points so what's the next step... how does one change the mindset of the masses?

@Z22

The first Hue one is my favorite. Thank you very much. Reminds of the older glass scene you did I like so well.👍

...and this is prime example of master *****. Oh well, if the manipulated are happy, whose to judge.

Always the one who takes advantage of someone else's weaknesses.

@Z22

I can edit the sizes myself. So you don't have to plaster a page of the forum...lol

Edit Again: The fire hue works too.

I have just seen the details of Melody Clark's first release (isWorkshop) and I am excited.

An XXX card - she looks smoking hot especially with that hair cut and the sweetly trimmed pussy.

It can't be released soon enough.❤️😛😍

That's up to you @Z22 The last 3 Hue ones were kind of cool if you want to do that your call.

@DANO70 If there are any you want in 1080p let me know as they should work better on your machine. I will post the adjusted code in here for you to copy.

@TheEmu

From what E.T. said in his posts @Z22 's were not working for him in any version includeing ours.

@Z22

Your's have all worked for me lately. Just a bit sluggish that's all.

Yeh, mine do have a tendancy not to work on other peoples machines :/


The reason why i include

version 120

is because atom, which i use for editing, throws up an error if it's not present. I usually forget to remove it.

@DANO70

I am pretty sure that @EverthangForever was saying that the scenes all worked with the stable released version of iStripper (the one you and myself are using), that neither FractalGarden074 nor @Z22 's Hue scenes worked with the previous beta version and that FractalGarden074 but not @Z22 's scenes worked with the newest beta.

This is consistant with the betas using a newer version of the Qt toolkit, that that toolkit or the way in which iStripper uses it effectively changed the default behaviour for the version directive allowing FractalGarden074 to be fixed by doing the equivalent of automatically inserting a a version directive but that Z22's scenes are relying on some other, possibly undefined, behaviour, which has changed with the new Qt library. If this is so then there may be nothing that Totem can do to get Z22's shaders to work again - which would be a great loss.

What they may be able to do is to provide a way to indicate in the .scn fle that a shader takes one of its sources the output generated by itself (or some other shader) in the previous frame. This is what Z22's shaders (when I looked at them a long time ago) seemed to be doing "by accident" rather than via some explicit construct used in the .scn file.

@E.T.

Just to clarify @Z22 's Hue 1-2-3 scenes DO render/work for me. Just a tad studdery. Which is fairly normal most times in my case.

Your FractalGarden074 is the ones that doesn't display the effect on the girl and the log errors comes in.

It's usualy the otherway around with @Z22 's giving errors and such. But his have been fine mostly. That's what shocked me yours not to work .😀

@EverthangForever

I have never been able to understand why some of Z22's shaders work. I am not at all sure that they do not rely on some undefined behaviour of the graphics pipeline (i.e. they may be relying on a bug), in particular with how various buffers between stages are initialised or re-allocated. If so this is pity because the feedback from shader output to shader input that these shaders rely on can be used for some very interresting effects (as Z22's shaders show).

Thanks @theEmu and thanks @Dano for your specs. & comments. I did not realise you were not using a higher type of graphics adapter than what you have. I doubt iStripper beta 1.2.260 as it is, will solve your problem with FractalGarden074 which uses glass4.fsh etc.

@TheEmu

The version directive says that the shader will use some of these "newer" features and if they are not available then the shader will not compile. From a recent posting by one of the developers it seems that the latest iStripper beta will automatically enable these features.

I upgraded to beta 1.2.260 and although I am now able to run @Number6"s shader sample scene ok, it appears to be a specific fix. I am still having no joy with any of the above Z22_Hue* shaders.

looks like we just have to wait and see if the Team will modify their fullscreen compatibility some more.
When I post Z22_Hue* & FG074 archive links up into the Share List thread, I will warn that there might be limited functionality with these. Thanks a lot ;-)

@TheEmu

so they would have been in danger of buying them again !

Astute observation!

@DrDoom9

1. Activate the Card again through the Eyeball Symbol.
2. Delete the Card (click on the Garbage can), so that you are no longer be able to play her Show.
3. Access the following Directory, where you can find the Card/Model Information.
https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/37892/3#post653424
4. Delete! not move in your Garbage can! all the Content in this Folder.
5. Go one Step back, right click on that specific Folder f0644 in this case.
6. Right Click on the Folder and, set the Folder to READ ONLY!

https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/windows-server-cookbook/0596006330/ch04s14.html
or use the Command Line in Windows.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QralfKAFr0

7. Restart! iStripper
8. You should now have an empty Card in your Collection (see my example on the Screenshot)
9. Hide the Card again through the Eyeball Symbol!

The Read only Option avoids that the Card appears again after an Update or Synchronize with the Server.
Hope this Helps.

Yeah I read that in the beta threads earlier @Number6 discussed. I just posted it for @E.T. 's benefit.

@DrDoom9

but it seems rather perverse to deny one's history to oneself.

That is what I thought as well - but a few people insisted that just disabling and deleting the cards was not enough and that they wanted no references to them in their collections. What they often asked for (the ability to return cards they didn't like) would have resulted in the cards reappearing in their girl's store, preview pushes and in special offers with random card selections - so they would have been in danger of buying them again !

Well it finally cost me 120 credits ... after winning 580 and spending 700. Anastasiia is definitely worth it but iStripper is becoming a very expensive site. 😕
It's worth ten times a normal card? For real? 😲

I live in a state where the highest paid public employee makes 5 million a year and is a FOOTBALL COACH...this same state has been cutting education spending and social services for 25 years. Humans are certainly not logical when it comes to spending their resources, the only thing that makes me disappointed is we know humans aren't logical but we do know how to ***** them...and this is prime example of master *****. Oh well, if the manipulated are happy, whose to judge.

@DANO70

Yes, that will be down to not having a version directive, By default GLSL assumes that a shader does not use some "newer" features of the language. Though the features used in this shader have been part of GLSL at least as long as I have been using them in VGHD/iStripper scenes so they are not exactly new. Unfortunately the default behaviour of at least some G:SL compilers is to assume that a very old compiler is wanted even though the actual compiler is much more capable than that.

The version directive says that the shader will use some of these "newer" features and if they are not available then the shader will not compile. From a recent posting by one of the developers it seems that the latest iStripper beta will automatically enable these features.

The version directive is not present in many or most of the originals of the shaders that I obtained from shadertoy.com. In passing, in the past I did experiment with adding a version directive but doing so quite often caused problems in the form of false warnings flooding the vghd log without affecting the behaviour of the shader.

I suspect the reverse, that the laws allowing lotteries in the US included this as a requirement.

If the laws allowing lotteries had not included such a provision do you think that the lotteries would have chosen to do so ? I very much doubt it.

@E.T.

I don't mess with the real complex shaders scenes much anymore. They are too much for my semi ''potato'' most of the time as you know or ones with shader effects applied to the model herself doesn't work as you guys say (normal model displays). And alot of times the entire shader info fills the VG log. So I just leave them alone now, they're just not worth the trouble for me to tinker with sorry.

Example pics: likely the shader version number thing again with a few other errors the log says. Please don't ask for more info/testing than this. Like I say I don't want to mess with them. The pics are from your 2 last FractualGarden074 scenes recently.

anything new on the VR front we can expect?

Karissa & Debora A

@gkar45
I have taken a screenshot of it before and after clicking on the icon.

@TheEmu
Thanks. There are one or two cards I wish I had not bought, but I just deactivate them. One could delete them, but it seems rather perverse to deny one's history to oneself.

It's worth ten times a normal card? For real? 😲

A gentleman does not put a price on feminine beauty, especially when we're discussing Anastasiia.

They say in the comments she's wearing shorts under a skirt? 😶
@Ironman79 - it was a one piece skirt-with-shorts combined. I suspect it is a genuine sports skirt as part of a school uniform. Unfortunately of course that ruled out any panty-less upskirts.

Can confirm this........in other words, this card of Anastasiia is just like her 5 other cards. For her fans, I can see them trying to get the card, for everybody else, that's your decision to make............

I suspect that is not by choice but because there is a legal requirement to do so. (I also suspect that the lottery providers resisted this as long as they could).

I suspect the reverse, that the laws allowing lotteries in the US included this as a requirement.

Much as I wish that iStripper would provide the odds i suspect that until they are required to by some law that they will not provide this information.

You may be right, but for a computer game failure to publish the odds is at the least underhanded. In all casinos the odds can be easily calculated and anything done to alter those odds is criminal.

Well it finally cost me 120 credits ... after winning 580 and spending 700. Anastasiia is definitely worth it but iStripper is becoming a very expensive site. 😕

@notathome12

The tabs on the Featured page always have been slightly variable. This week three of them are taken up by the TGIF (normaly there is only one), and one of those has a long name which means that the space available for the other tabs is very restricted - so much so that if you do not have the window at full screen size there is not enough room for any more of them. I assume that the regular selection will be back next week - but we can never be sure.

what happend to blonds,redhair . etc ?

i just hit 4035 shows not bad.👍😀

Average of 110 scratch cards to fill the thermometer=2200 credits= receive maybe 30% of cards, credits or SEC= A HELLA LOT CREDITS TO GET 1 CARD!

@StrangeWays - I'm not sure why you seem to have used 110 scratch cards to fill the thermometer? Other people, myself included, filled it with 35 scratch cards - obviously what that actually cost in terms of credits would depend on how many credit wins or cards you got in playing the game.

Hi all

I've updated the Neon club with 2 more backgrounds and some other mods.
The same link has these updated files.

Enjoy 👍

Every state lottery I've seen including scratch cards posts the odds.

I suspect that is not by choice but because there is a legal requirement to do so. (I also suspect that the lottery providers resisted this as long as they could).

Much as I wish that iStripper would provide the odds i suspect that until they are required to by some law that they will not provide this information.

Those who want the odds posted. Please post the other site that has strippers and gambling with the credits posted. Then, we will compare the similar products.

Strippers are irrelevant to this issue. Every state lottery I've seen including scratch cards posts the odds.

Can something be done to stop this from happening in future?

Don't play the game. That's advise I don't always follow, myself. I played this "game" 35 times and spend more than was sane for an SEC card. I also got 14 cards I didn't want.

@gkar Today is Daddy's Day: that's a kind of "special event". Was it accident that this "Daddy" card was scheduled for today?

Nici's 'A Hard Workout' is one of the sexiest cards I've ever watched. Seeing her do workout moves (squats, jogging, jumping jacks, stretches) naked is amazing. I'd love for this to be a whole subcategory. Are there any other workout themes cards?
