Shady Deals [Ongoing] - Version: 0.23.1

What's New in Shady Deals Version - 0.23.1?

That’s a rough one. I’m releasing it so at least something goes out, since i already missed a few deadlines. But hey, the groundwork for audio systems is done – now it’s mostly about sound… sound… and more sound. I’ll try to finish the most obvious gaps in a patch version. After that, i’ll keep working on sound alongside other content in future updates.

New implementations:

• Partially implemented sound. Sound is separated into three groups, each with its own volume control: Ambience/BGM, SFX, and NSFW sounds.

Ambience:

• Each district has its own ambience, plus two types of night ambience on top of that.
• Entering any location within a district will lower the ambiance volume, simulating a kind off muffling effect.
• Locations with their own BGM (e.g. night clubs, strip club) take priority over district ambience. Instead of simply lowering volume, they use a muffled (bass-boosted) version of their own BGM.
• Most events also have their own BGM, which takes priority over district ambience.

SFX:

• SFX have been added to some actions, mostly movement for now.
• Movement between districts has its own SFX depending on the type of transport (T1 car, T2+ car, or on foot).
• Movement inside districts has SFX depending on footwear (heels or everything else).
• Both movement SFX types can be toggled in the audio settings.
• Upon entering certain locations, specific SFX will play to characterize the place (e.g. yacht bell when entering a yacht, whip sound when entering a sex shop etc).
• SFX have also been added as feedback for various actions, minigames, and notifications, but this is still very WIP.

NSFW:

• Only two groups of NSFW SFX have been implemented so far: F/F and partially M/F (some actions are still missing). Everything group-related is not implemented yet.
• NSFW sound plays as a short generalized SFX, about 6-9 seconds after each revealed clip during events. Revealing the next clip before the previous SFX finishes will interrupt it, and leaving the passage will also stop it.

Only NSFW SFX have been normalized so far, though i’ve manually adjusted the most obviously off ones. Some issues may remain. I’ll handle SFX normalization in batches after i finish the planned work.

There is also a list of missing audio in the main menu.

Other changes:

• Added an adaptive icon for girls showing their rating as a number. Number can be hidden via a settings toggle.
• The Gizmo from Golddigger now shows price per unit for most NPC deals.
• Using NPC job abilities now significantly increases their depravity.
• Moonshine gift also sliiightly increases depravity if it is too low.
• Rescaled drug pricing for the “Den Problem” crew event – it now grants significantly more drugs per reputation scale.
• Nerfed drug prices in the PC Night Club deal event.
• Added a lot of linkreplaces to events that didn’t have any separation between clips, so multiple sound effects can now play properly.

Fix:

• Wrong notification when selling drugs on the beach.
