Is 50 credits how much you spent to play, or is the the net amount after losses?

Sirena Milano
Cherry Blossom Time_f1305
added via Pleasure Chest Game
plus 2 Gift Cards for 50 credits on balance.
Pretty Fair Lucky Play ! 😀 👌

@Bitwrangler,
Bummer that I am not at all attracted to this model. So I am not buying her cards.

One File, for all the different needs. Just change the name.

Not if it can mean issues for typical users.

Selva Lapiedra's upcoming card Ipanema's Sunlight apparently has a glass clip, so there's hope!

Seems like a command-line option would be more appropriate.

if you vist a partner web site and download the app,
how then would you know to use a command line switch to install their versions.

A single Installation file, just by using the file name, can install multiple client versions and multiple affiliate versions.

versions with filenames like this one
setup-istripper_rgD9HID5M70GtKqfKlo6SACB

have a specific purpose.
It's coded like that for a reason.

Maybe to give 25 credits along with the installation, or to include the 1st card with the installation.

So by Using the filename, it makes the installer very powerful.

One File, for all the different needs.
Just change the name.

I deleted all my cards and have been downloading them and deleteing the clips I dont want lately. I downloaded the beta and continued to do what I have been doing. I downloaded all sonya blazes cards and disabled the clips I did not want on the first card and Istripper crashes (not surprized at all it crashed...) anyways now all her cards show as not downloaded when I know they are. So here is a bug report for you. youre welcome 😆.

I wpould like to mention youre update with the crash reporter also. you know that update around a year ago... Is it working?

@WyldanimalDoes the file renaming problem for the set up file only occur if you puy a hyphen (-) in the name?.

I think I answered my own question. I checked the WhiteLabel registry key and it is blank.😊

I have always named the installation file like this:

setup-istripper 12376

The current version wants (defaults) to be saved as this:

setup-istripper_5M70GqfKlo6SACBrgD9HIDtK

This came from the website just a minute ago.

I have never had a problem with the installation.
I checked the registry hours ago and found the registry value to be blank (nothing there).

edit:
I always save the installation file with the version number minus the periods/dots added to the name but never a hyphen/dash.

@Wyldanimal

Does the file renaming problem for the set up file only occur if you puy a hyphen (-) in the name?

I always save the files with the the beta or full version name and install them from the renamed file. I tend to only use underscores for the file name.

For example for the the current beta release I saved it as "setup-istripper_Beta_1_2_510.exe".

I have always done this so I can easily keep track of versions in case I ever need to revert to an older version.

I've previously not noticed any problems using this method of renamimng and installing.

Good work!!!!

Just sounds like poor software practice to have a different installation based on setup file naming differences. Seems like a command-line option would be more appropriate.

I deleted all my cards and have been downloading them and deleteing the clips I dont want lately. I downloaded the beta and continued to do what I have been doing. I downloaded all sonya blazes cards and disabled the clips I did not want on the first card and Istripper crashes (not surprized at all it crashed...) anyways now all her cards show as not downloaded when I know they are. So here is a bug report for you. youre welcome 😆.

I mentioned about this at discord about four hours ago (general channel).
I was a little late getting up, and only bought the new card of today just minutes before that.

I am surprised for there to be two cards of one girl on consecutive days.

(two cards here; the other one will show when it again becomes available)

And if you update your software within Settings page (as most surely do with finished software versions), you don't have to worry about such a thing.

well yes you would still keep the issue.
Updates from within the setting page, would apply that same registry value to the update.

Let's say you had a legitimate Partner copy of the app.
when you update using the settings, it will keep that Partners graphics.

Freeones is an example:
https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2021-02-26/B2yUnJlr.png

so you would want the partner graphics to still be there after an update.

From having QA'd this show, I agree. A lovely girl with a ponytail (a weakness of mine 😍) and a kimono that resolutely refuses to stay closed and covering her 😛

You will enjoy

Thanks Pickle1.. this is a very nice new model and this SEC will be a fine addition to my collection...
this post can or may be deleted...

No - the card is scheduled to be an SEC and has simply moved to a status that is interpreted as "no longer available".

By tomorrow it will have a release date on it.

@mkst

I don't think there's really any need for an update in software itself. The whole issue was that I had changed the installation file name from the original to something else (although I can't remember when or why :) ) Apparently if you don't do that, you won't end up in the same trouble that I was in. And if you update your software within Settings page (as most surely do with finished software versions), you don't have to worry about such a thing.

But of course it wouldn't ***** to share Wyldanimal's information to anyone downloading beta version installation file (= "do not change the file name" or something similar).

@pickle1

Indeed I admit :)

Hi there, I just noticed when I looked at the coming soon tab Sirena Milano..
when I looked at the details tab and what other shows of her are coming I noticed a SEC with the title Cherry Blossom Time .. It looks very Nice but next to the picture of this show it read : No longer available !!
Did I missed something somewhere or is this just another Bug ??

@Dfner I'll cancel my ticket with the support now.

But shouldn't the software be updated in some way so that your issue isn't repeated?

@Dfner - you have got to admit - @Wyldanimal 's knowledge is impressive 😲

Sadly we cannot move individual posts from one thread to another but I am happy we leave these here.

Wow... That really was the issue - I blanked the value "12510" from registry as you instructed and now everything looks as it should: the stars are there on SEC (current style, not old) and also the other watermarks are updated as they should.

Thank you very much for your patience and for finding out where the issue was! 👌👍

And as I mentioned a while ago, it ended up having nothing to do with this beta version itself. That's good to know.

I'll cancel my ticket with the support now.

@Dfner

I know what your issue is.
When you downloaded the software, You must have added a Hyphen followed by a name or a number
to the file you saved.

Then you used this Hyphenated Setup file to Install it.
For example: I often save them like this.
setup-iStripper-12510.exe

But I make a copy of this and rename it just to
setup-iStripper.exe
and I install from that copy.

WHY?
the Hyphenated part on the End is Used to Create a Partner version using a different set of Graphics
Including the Tags used on the card.

If the Partner Folder that Matches the Hyphenated Name, can't be Found
it uses a different set of Stickers ( grabbed from the server ).

How to Check:

Go Look at this registry Branch.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Totem\vghd\DLM

Look at the Key

whiteLabel

https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2023-05-18/OOphu4uC.png

is it Blank, or does it have a value?
It SHOULD be blank if you installed using
setup-iStripper.exe

but it will have a value 12510
if you installed using
setup-iStripper-12510.exe

how to fix it:

install using a copy without the hyphenated name
setup-iStripper.exe

or

Quit iStripper
and Clear out the value in the Key

whiteLabel

then restart iStripper.

Issue Solved.

About my posts regarding wrong or missing stars on SEC and wrong / old-style watermarks on even the latest released cards: this doesn't seem to be related to this new beta version 1.2.510 since I have the same problem also with at least 1.2.360 and 1.2.378. And I might be the only one ***** from all this.

So, if mods think those posts should be moved to some other thread, that's fine by me.

I also just opened a ticket with support trying to describe the issue.

@peterbanker
Sorry, but we can only pin a thread, not a post.

Currently I am very busy and cannot run my main laptop on which istripper is installed.

Is there any way that the post by @Wyldanimal containing the how to videos can be kept at the top of a thread so that it can easily be found in a few days when I will have time to view them?

Thanks

@Alkasyn

See if this works for you:
https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/43070/1?post=641768
I have same issue of you, not only onbeta but even on ordinary version of app; I always manage to solve it, though, by using such workaround by @Wyldanimal .

@Dfner

I made this video with you in mind, but it is for anyone who is having a similar issue.

1) check your registry setting to find out where the app thinks your Data folder is.it might be different than the one you are looking at.https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2023-05-18/ceTTWTG6.png

2) there are 6 .png images used to put the star sticker on the cards.so you need to check all 6 images are the correct ones.https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2023-05-18/MeqrWFb6.png

in the basic folder
the images should only be the orig. ones.

in a skin folder
you can place custom images to use.
if you change the basic images
then it changes them for Every Skin that doesn't include custom images.

https://wyldanimal.com/videos/SEC-watermarks.zip

@Wyldanimal

Thank you for your help in this. My registry is pointing to the correct data-folder, so that checks out. Also I do have all the six image files and their file dates are same as yours (November 8, 2022). Just in case, however, I replaced my same six files with the ones you had zipped, but it didn't change things.

One funny thing I noticed is that after I had reverted back to 1.2.360, I couldn't select basic skin at all. In Settings/Change Skin the basic-skin wasn't selectable (same thing with some other skins as well) even though the folder was present as before (...vghd\data\skins\iStripper\basic). When I changed back to this new beta, basic-skin was selectable again. I will have to check again, whether both software versions have the same paths...

My star tags (those 9 that are left) are all on the top right corner whereas they apparently should be on the left as in your video. For example, on the card of Niemira's only SEC the star is covering the card number in my collection.

I noticed that you have a file called "watermarks.txt" in your "...skins\iStripper\basic\cards\watermarks"-folder. I don't have such a file. Is that possibly a file that software is reading from or is it something unrelated to this issue?

And then I have those vertical "iStripper" and "iStripperXXX" stickers on every card (seems to be from "deskbabes_2016.png" and "virtuagirl_2016.png"). Every single e-series card in my collection, including the very latest releases, show that vertical iStripper-logo on top-left (red "i", black "Stripper"). except those few early ones that have Marc Dorcel-logo there. For f-series, cards f0001-f0127 have "iStripperXXX" horizontally on bottom-left. All the rest have the vertical "iStripperXXX" on top-left.

Thanks so much, this is very helpfull for me !

A very very ***** thing.

The text on the initial splash screen that says "the girls are fitting into their skirts" is a very odd way of expressing it.

More normal would be a phrase like "the girls are getting into their skirts" or "the girls are putting on their skirts",

Aha, I see that too. It looks like everything on the feature page is loaded from scratch whenever you access it or anything FROM it.

I think it may be a matter of things not being cached until you have first looked at them, I have only used to Featured page to go to some other page but although the first time I followed a link in the News section it was slow if I went back to the featured page and followed the same link it was very quick.

Aha, I see that too. It looks like everything on the feature page is loaded from scratch whenever you access it or anything FROM it. And there is a lot of stuff on that page to load. It is not like the old app where it was all loaded and retained and updated if needed.

That might not be the optimum way to handle this.

When I click on any of the news items in the Beta version it takes 5 seconds or more to load and show the related page. When I do this in the current version it is almost instant.

I hope they do more glass clips

The entire UI in the new version is blurry for me.

Probably because I use a high resolution natively and upscale to have bigger fonts via the Windows slider.

Is there any way to get rid of that problem?

@EverthangForever, @ComteDracula

Thanks guys. I love swing clips. I have 338 swing shows and 176 still to collect. As well as going around in a Carousel together, each girl has her own unique motion to make it look more random/windy. I tried to make the clip name look like it is curved around the balloon but it's not quite right. If I ever have time, I would extract the background balloons from their shader and use a more detailed landscape shader for the background instead. The motions of the girls in their clips are quite different - the swings are sometimes different heights and sometimes they swing side to side so getting the swing top end to stay behind the balloon but not wanting the models head to go behind the balloon is a playoff. The longest swing I've found so far is



If you play that one you'll see she's very low on the screen.

Although I normally run with the GUI at its maximum size but sometimes, depending on what I am doing with the GUI, I run it with a smaller window (e.g. to compare what I see in My Collection with something in another window).

Currently the program's minimum window size is larger than I would prefer as it is wider than half my laptop's screen width. Could you please consider allowing us to use a smaller GUI window - even if this was at the expense of overlapping texts in the header line.

Gonna check this one out for sure... she is amazing

Well even with the Beta Version my Problems still exist, the Tabs "Featured, Events, VR and Forum are empty and do not load.
Also do the Credit and Profile Tabs not work.
And dont tell me my ISP is blocking this Stuff, all this works fine over the Browser, without a VPN.

I just checked my collection again. Still the same, as in my last post.
I just checked the store. Using filters

• 2022
• 2023
• glass

I found the last (most recently released) glass card not in my collection is Vanessa Alessia's last card, a SEC released late July 2022.


It does look as if this is the end of the glass clips. (maybe not?)

Thanks a lot @Calgon

Very pretty your balloon scenes, with our lovely ladies in the sky. 😊


Merci beaucoup @Calgon

Très jolies vos scènes de ballons, avec nos jolies femmes dans le ciel. 😊

I whole-heartedly agree,

I had always hoped that some day we would be able to define our own carousels - perhaps as a way of displaying the contents of a short playlist (or even a long one with girls getting on and off the carousel at its furthest point).

At times I used to use them as a kind of roulette game by holding down a left or right arrow key to make the carousel spin rapidly, releasing the key and then playing the card that came to the front.

Yes, it was something dynamic in the program, which could have been better exploited and improved.

There are some useful and pleasant program options that disappear in the updates, and I find this deplorable.

I would be surprised if a large number of people in the survey about changes to the program asked for the disappearance of the carousels.

Even the appearance of the giants by mistake was comical.


Oui c'était quelquechose de dynamique dans le programme, et qui aurait pu être mieux exploité et amélioré.

Il y a des options du programme utlies et agréables qui disparaissent dans les mises à jour, et je trouve cela déplorable.

Je serait surpris qu'un grand nombre de personnes dans le sondage sur les changements au programme, aient demandé la disparition des caroussels.

Même l'apparition des géantes par erreur, était comique.

I hope users will get a warning when all older versions will be discontinued and no longer usable. I do not want to continue paying for a website (subscription and/or new cards) when I can no longer see (download, play) the cards.

Thanks for this, helpful to see the new stuff 👍

I did notice that this new UI has a lot in common with vixen networks. Might just the way websites are organized today but I hope there is more collab between the more popular porn sites and istripper to get more diversity of models.

@JonC001

Thanks for that information! I have also a folder "...vghd\data\skins\basic\cards\watermarks" for the basic skin, and also 20 folders + 20 files in it. All the subfolders in "...vghd\data\skins\basic\cards\watermarks" have last edit date in Windows Explorer as May 17th 2023 (probably because I just switched to that) and all the 20 image files in that folder have last edit date as November 8th 2022.

Some of the 20 image files are named as *exclu.png, *star.png and *etoile.png. Those are the ones containing the star with iS or iS xxx -logos. Why the software doesn't use them for all SEC, I don't know...

EDIT: for what it's worth, I reverted back to 1.2.360 and the same issue remains (regardless of the skin I select, as I tested with a few). I don't know / remember if that issue was there before updating to the new beta. Maybe I had just missed that OR maybe it appeared because of the update... but why it only affects some of the SEC (and curiously just the first ones of the e- and f-series) and not all, is interesting.
