hello

have the princess in the cell but can't find a way to convince her

so no way to get her that way (and the elf girl) or is there just one right combination of answers?

You do require to pass some stat checks, if you have them very low it might not be possible to persuade her. Otherwise it's about right combination of answers.

ah ok - there were no messages about failer/success so I didnt thought of that

that whole questline is still buggy too like some parts dont go away and can be repeatedly selected
iirc the first time when the barrier appeared in the city and you ahd to leave - you could still restart the fight/dialogue sequence and the even when I managed to persuade the elf girl in the cell through talking the option at the mage guild doesn't dissapear
first time talking to the mage leader she refused but then the option "I broought the diadem..." was still there and after trying to reload whatever I try it still keeps beeing stuck there and don't go away - even when I'm now at the damsel part there is still that option to select besides the mind break part
in the elven capital I think it was possible too to restart that talk to the queen over and over again...

so basically have to train the mc attributes some more and try again later when I have the time - thanks

You should update to the latest version, some of those bugs have been fixed.

always update immediately if there is an update
though when i downloaded it a few days ago for the first time it said immediately - update available - and after the update - it showed still update available instead of the play button (using the itch.io launcher) and after that for the last 2-3 days it detected no new update

[edit: ah ok just seen that there is a new update]

ah yes new update fixed most of it but in the elven capital I still have the [talk to...] option to start that quest part all over

at least now the stat check worked somehow (60+10str 80+40int 60+40charm, 85training) didnt work first but two more items to raise charm +25 and it worked somehow

let her meet her elf friend and gave her the bracelet but now tried just for fun the bed warmer option with the sex factor check - didn't work first - then raised it several times to excellet and still not working óO

P.S.: maybe just my imagination but the amount of bugs like DUNGEON_LOCATIOn and ENEMY_ASSASSIN etc seems to have increased very much...

>P.S.: maybe just my imagination but the amount of bugs like DUNGEON_LOCATIOn and ENEMY_ASSASSIN etc seems to have increased very much...
Please report me those, I've fixed assassin one but not sure of the others.

sorry were just to many to keep up with - a lot of towns where you go to select workers, often when you start this single fights for quests
necromancy-non fight skill in the manor, description for alchemy3 upgrade

if I have later some more time to try and find out why the sex factor check with the princess is not working even though it is upgraded to max maybe I start making a list

ok it start to drive me crazy a bit - from what I have seen in another recent thread it is not so much different for some others...

after raising some stats like charm etc got her to agree to think about supporting the guilds / becoming a slave

then took the chance to let her speak with aire which told her that I treated her ok and that it would be the better option
and gave her her bracelet back

now I'm stuck at
1) eventually come to an agreement
2) shower with love / dignity / needs met
3) manager / servant / worker / bed warmer
4) sex factor / charm factor / sooner or later / no interest in you

it doesn't matter what you pick at each step the next step is always the same - so you have no idea what effects your choices have
and in the end it seems to fail anyway regardles what combinations I pick

tried different combinations for 1) and 2) and then went mostly with bedwarmer and some other options but no option at 4) seems to work
despite [sex fator excellent / sexual proficiency 100+20 of 100] and [charm factor great / 86+40 of 100]

*****

and the other stuff you asked about

1) Greenwod the screen where you select worker / send them back - down in the middle field
[SETTLEMENT_FOREST:1 Greenwood]

2) same for [SETTLEMENT_FOREST:2 Ashenmeadow]

3) when you are in these screens the numbers at the ressources always stay at 2/2, 3/3, etc...
only on the travel destination list it seems to change

4) character skill in mansion [SKILLMAKE_UNDEADSKILLMAKE_UNDEADSCRIPT]

5) geisha job gives the mansion job [reward with sex] but to unlock geisha the character must have the harlo job already and that one gives already that skill and so unlocking the geisha option gives you nothing skill wise

6) even when the princess is already in jail the [meet priestess] option is still available in the elven capital

7) some visit the [shop] and [meet priestess] buttons are moved upwards on the screen for the elven capital for no visible reason

8) when buying silk or work outfits the colour of the item symbol changes in the window with the slider bar for the amount - the silk turns white and the outfit blue (both aliron and elven capital)

9) house upgrades:
Alchemy:3 => Upgrade Bonus: UPGRADEALCHEMYBONUS3
Luxury Room:3 => Previous Bonus: UPGRADELUXURYROOMSBONUS2
Luxury Room:3 => Upgrade Bonus: UPGRADELUXURYROOMSBONUS3

10) the non dungeons / one battle only quests from the guilds
like trouble solving fighters guild Fight Ogre
are missing punctuation
[It has companions] dot "." at the sentence end is missing?

11) a lot of monster/enemy names have these problems to MONSTER THIS/THAT_SOMETHING
kill them to automatically to look at them all

12) fullfilling a kill x of certain monster/enemy quest
[QUESTREQUESTCOMPLETE] monster hunt / fighters guild / undead / medium

13) weird entries in the task list left
since sometime I have for slave xyz a progress bar for farming even though that slave never farmed and does other tasks
seems to have no effect on game so far
tried to change that slaves job to farmer and back but no change
and now I have another progress bar for the same slave for fishing
so she is farming, fishing and what she actually does...

14) and the weirdest thing so far used 1000xp to unlock the maid skill for a slave - clicked somewhere on the screen during the animation
and suddenly the little pop-up field which shows the job-aquired symbol changed from maid job to barbarion job
the symbol vanished afterwards but the brown pop-up field was stuck on screen (like some other tool tip windows like to do too)
and no new job in the slaves aquired job list and the maid job dissapeared from the list
had to switch locations back and forth to get the pop-up window removed and the maid job list appeared again in the available job list to
but the 1000exp stay lost ;/

Can you pass me the save file on the persuasion?

sure can do but where to send?

Anywhere you could upload, or you can join discord

ah ok - and here I thought something simple like sending an email^^
have to look for an upload spot then...

dat-file
https://file.io/43UOdUPe2EIz
sav-file
https://file.io/bEZqeRAT7dM6
for each save there were 2 file in the save folder (damn hidden roaming folder...) so I uploaded both to be safe

Okay, so basically 2 things. 1. You might need charm 6 to persuade her, as enslavement route requires charm instead of sex factor. 2. There's actually a bug in a way that you can try to persuade ana more than once. If you do not do so, then you lose bonuses from Aire and bracelet, hence why it's nearly impossible after that at your current state. Originally you weren't expected to try it after that.

what a bad way do do a quest/dialogue - this is just a weird guesing game with her lackof responses and collecting the materials for upgrades too... - now I have to do that whole process again to collect/craft materials to upgrade charm factor too

at least when the other factor is high enough / at max too there should be a chance for it to work too (with different reactions...)

well at least my save is directly after the aire/bracelet part

so much wasted time trying to test around etc... - well thanks anyway for your time / the clarification

yeah noticed that bug part too - but I made a safe at the right spot so I can always reload the first attempt after the aire/bracelet part

have now both factors at max(excellent) and the charm attribute at 120+40/120 and the other one at 100+20/100
extra put on some animal and maid stuff too :P

but still everything fails - after that I tried the bug to try all 16+16+16=48 combinations withouth reloading but ALL of them ended in failure

this is so annoying...

*****

one new for the collection:

Earth Shard description: [MATERIALEARTH_SHARDDESCRIPT] noticed that in the inventory pop-up at altar offerings

As I said, currently the bug happens if you allow to meet aire and pass bracelet, then start the dialogue over. You miss those bonuses and the counter is reset. From what I'm seeing, it's impossible right now to complete enslave route without those, because you can only get 9 points while you need 11. I'll be fixing it in next update. 

yeah I get that but I think there is a misunderstanding here

"if you allow to meet aire and pass bracelet, then start the dialogue over"

I didn't start any dialogue over - I think

saved and visit her first time in the cell - always faild
raised the charm attribute some - here response changed and the guild leaded suggested bringing aire over
did that - they talked - gave her the bracelet
saved and then tried the 2nd dialogue part for the first time (which is different from the first half)
and when she rejects there I reload the save and not using the bug to start over

so I'm not sure if we mean/think of the same in terms of starting the dialogue over - or do you lose the boni even when you reload a save from before the start?!

oh nice update worked to solve it - thanks
could convince her to join now (sadly now with up to 3 WIP scenes ingame)
though little note: after convincing her and the note of madame guild leader to wait 3 days - I was out on the town screen again with the option to enter the jail cell still open on the list (bottom left)
when I go back in she repeats a few text lines and I have only one option to choose to leave the cell again
entering the mansion to save and going back makes the enter jail entry dissapear
the talk to the priestess option though is still available in the elven capital
have to give that and the location of the mage guild leader's sister later on a test visit...

Could somebody leave a pipeline on how to obtain both the elf and the princess? Because it is hard enough to follow roots and triggers in the game files while the roots mostly have only numeric modifier

I think someone did already in another thread/post about this topic here

It didn't help, but a character with maxed out charm+sex factor worked on the enslavement route. Yes, it is a bit less efficient, because the writ of exemption can't be used on persistent characters, but I originally wanted to use this route 

What's this bracelet newer found it as i plaid
