How do we trigger dialogue on a Mac keyboard (that does not have a Tilde key)?

sadamboberDeveloper5 years ago

For me it works when I press the " [ ] ~ ' " key next to the left shift. If you don't have it then I'm not sure, I'll add some other key in the next update.

GGAA213 years ago

is there a new updated now right now?

Hmmm triggering a dialogue doesnt work for me with the Tilde Key.

habbit445 years ago

U : unlock all genres for producing singles

Hello everybody! i don't know if the dev will aprove or not but you can change some value inside your save files!

For example you can change your Idols Name, spec, stamina, you can even change her apparence! (i think it's a start for apparence mods)

You can even change single title, revenue for a contract and many more! i'll gladly help if someone is interested!

Rawkstar5 years ago(+1)

I would definitely be interested in how to change the appearance of the idols! The ones I get with the good stats are always the ones that don't look that great

sadamboberDeveloper5 years ago(+4)

Okay, first you need to open your save file with a text editor. Save files are here:
Win: C:\Users\*username*\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Glitch Pitch/Idol Manager/data/

Find your idol in data_girls__Girls and find her "textureAssets". You can change her appearance by editing "asset_id" parameters. You can get IDs from this folder: *game_folder*\IM_Data\StreamingAssets\Textures\IdolPortraits

"textureAssets": [
{
"type": 0, <- Body
"asset_id": "0 5 0"
},
{
"type": 1, <- Hair
"asset_id": "1 5 1" <- First number = same as "type". Second number = Body ID. Third number = Asset ID.
},
{
"type": 2, <- Face
"asset_id": "2 5 1"
},
{
"type": 3, <- Accessory
"asset_id": "3 5 0"
}
],

Thank you so much for the quick response, Sadambober!

yukiriiiin4 years ago

Can I do this on the fly? Or I have to kill the game before editing save files?

sadamboberDeveloper4 years ago

Yep, you can (except for auto_save.json)

mademan25 years ago

Any way to heal the idols? I dont know if its a bug, but they are suddenly all mentaly at 0 even tho things are going well. Cant survive for half a year like that :D

sadamboberDeveloper5 years ago(+2)

You can try editing your save file

Open it with a text editor and find "data_girls__Girls". In "parameters" of each girl find "type":"8" (phys stamina) and "type":"9" (mental stamina) and set their "_val" to "100".

Save files are here:
Win: C:\Users\*username*\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Glitch Pitch/Idol Manager/data/

Is it Permeant?

DerpTime4 years ago

I'm super Dyslexic. I spent 3 mins staring at you comment trying figure out....
"What does he mean is it Pregnant?"
If you don't know what Dyslexia is. google it. Its a reading/writing thing.

Demotivated Madman4 years ago (1 edit)

Nono DerpTime, he means Permanent.

I don't think it's permanent but I sure will try, ~~gonna edit my message then.~~

Edit: Answer is no, it's not Permanent

DerekL4 years ago(+2)

Hopefully these will survive into the finished game... I just now have my first profitable agency, in a large part because I played several "cheaty" games and learned how the game works. (Not that you can cheat in a single player game anyhow.)

Is there any new cheats?

ecs10103 years ago

Is there a cheat that gives you more than 1m? I need a lot more money and pressing y over and over again gets annoying 😭

sadamboberDeveloper3 years ago

You can just edit your save file. Save files are the .json files here:

Windows: C:\Users\*username*\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data\
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Glitch Pitch/Idol Manager/data/

Open the file with a text editor (notepad or whatever), in the beginning of the file there should be something like "resources__Resources":[ {"Type":"0", "Val":"5000000"}

You can change the value here and save the file.

bdzmru3 years ago

Hi sadambober,

I am currently unable to find the save files in this address as you instructed:

Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Glitch Pitch/Idol Manager/data/

I would like to edit my save file but can't seem to find it anywhere.

P.S. btw I think that there should also be a shortcut button for stamina increase and a way to skip a few weeks ahead ahaha

sadamboberDeveloper3 years ago

Do you not have this folder at all or are there no files inside? You should at least have auto_save.json

>a way to skip a few weeks

You can press E to speed up the game, you can press it multiple times to make it really fast, there's no limit

bdzmru3 years ago

I do not have this folder in library at all...

I checked the contents of the icon itself but no files there remotely appear like a save file. Strange because I actually have two saves available as we speak while I play. I just don't know where the game put it

GGAA213 years ago

I’ve changed it but it’s not working for me

vuluun3 years ago(+2)

I just found new keyboards:

S : increase idol fame.

B : randomly increase or decrease your relationship ( friendship, love, influence) with a random girl

GGAA213 years ago

anymore?

Wjaii3 years ago(+1)

is there a cheat so I can level up my staff?

yoona64873 years ago

GGAA213 years ago

what about for mac?

Bicky Desu!3 years ago

Try using Fn+F7 5x to activate the cheats.

GGAA213 years ago

I tried it, it doesn’t work for me 😭

Bicky Desu!3 years ago

Do you hear a sound effect when you press those keys 5 times in a row? Do you have the latest build of the game installed? (Beta 20, Version 48)

GGAA213 years ago

yes I have the latest update

Helpmepl3 years ago

The dev probably won't approve this but is there a way to increase your chances of getting a platinum idol via game files?

justtry123_TL3 years ago(+1)

I am trying to compile a comprehensive list of debug/ cheat keys, but I seem to be missing a few, hope someone can answer my question.

Press F7 five times to unlock cheats

~ (Tilde key) : trigger a dialog (some dialogues require a certain number of idols or staffers)
Z : trigger an audition (local)
X : trigger an audition (regional)
C : trigger an audition (worldwide)
Y: add ¥1M
F : add 100 fans
P : add 1000 research points of each type
U : unlock all genres for producing singles
S: Increase all idols' fame level
B: Random relationship buff and debuff for random idol (Careful not to lose all your affinity levels with the idols when using this)
F1: ?
F2: ?
F3: Resetting the idols' stamina
F4: ?
F9: Not exactly a cheat, but the assets on the game seem to refresh, not sure what else does it do to impact the game in anyway

sadamboberDeveloper3 years ago

F1 - It used to trigger elections, but probably doesn't work right now
F2 - Reset special events cooldowns
F4 - Remove all scandal points
F5/F9 - Quick save/load

GGAA213 years ago

will it work for mac?

sadamboberDeveloper3 years ago

Yeah, for mac it should be press Fn+F7 five times, then Fn+F2 etc instead of just F2

chantolove3 years ago

F9 could be used if you're testing texture mods and don't want to restart the game? :O

Need a cheat to cancel graduation

LikeableKiwi3 years ago

can anyone post a list of traits available in the game... also the sexy and cool stats seems to max out depending on age and averages out along your other stats

Bicky Desu!3 years ago

Here's a pastebin with the content of traits.json, including all 39 traits' names and descriptions.

Yeahnoo2 years ago

Is there a cheat code for increasing influence?

Bicky Desu!2 years ago(+1)

Not really. I'm positive you could increase/decrease influence levels for specific idols by manually editing your sve files, though.

Yeahnoo2 years ago

Thank you for responding but how do i do that? I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to coding.

Bicky Desu!2 years ago(+1)

Basically, head to the folder where the game's save files are stored (should be C:\Users\[username]\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data), and open the save file you wish to edit with a text editor.

Then, look up "Rel_Influence_Points". There will be multiple of those (one for each idol). Find the one corresponding to the idol you wish to gain/lose influence on and just manually change the value on the string.

Yeahnoo2 years ago

Thank you

I'm play female character and that very difficult to flirt with idol girl more than male producer .Do you have cheat for increase romantic level or detele Extra "Only interested in dating guys" trait .I can't dating idol girl TT Need this cheat for end cocona route.

sadamboberDeveloper2 years ago

Press F7 five times, then click "Debug romance" (and press F7 again to hide this menu)

Drag the idol into your office and flirt with her. You should get romance points, even if the text says something different.

After this, return to the main menu and click Continue (this disables the cheat, but you should have enough romance points now to invite the girl on a date)

princesskaimuk@gmail.com2 years ago

Thanks !!!

raki_can2 years ago (1 edit)

The F7 x5 command seems to work in the demo version of the Steam version as well.

Also, using the U key multiple times improves the level of all concepts.

Z / X / C is usually a shortcut key for reserving or running an activity, but when debug commands are enabled, the activity loses its functionality and appears to be reassigned to an immediate audition.

Are there any hidden debug mode features that haven't been mentioned yet but are already implemented?

~~In particular, improving staff capacity is important.~~

I found it much easier to improve staff skills by editing save files.

Staff skill exp seems to have a maximum value of 500000.

Staff salaries are calculated automatically from skill level, so it seems that you can't hire the best staff cheaply.

By the way, somewhere in the game's main file there should be an audition card rank ratio setting, but does anyone know where it is?

raffym2 years ago

Hey, sorry this is so late, but where in the save file did you find the staff skill? I've been looking and can't seem to find it, so idk if I just can't interpret the strings, or if I'm bling.

raki_can2 years ago

First, make sure you are referring to the correct file location.

"C: \ Users \ [UserName] \ Appdata \ LocalLow \ Glitch Picth \ Idol Manager \ data \ manual_saves \ [saveID] \ save.json"

Then open the file in a text editor and search for the string "skill".

You will find data consisting of four rows: "skill_type", "primary", "exp", "lastFrameWorking".

Of these, "exp" is the experience value of staff skills. You can change this value.

Skill MAX requires 500,000 points, but since the judgment flag of whether it is possible to level up may not work properly,

I change the exp of the two skills to 499999, then load that data in the game and try to give it some task to get experience points.

Thanks for telling us! And thank you for your hard work!

Gorudo2 years ago

can you increase the value of f = fans?

amyyynn2 years ago

How do you get a million fans? It's really annoying to spam f a million times to get a bunch of fans, is there a way to do this?

vuluun2 years ago

you have to modify your save file and give every idols a certain numbers of fans unless it won't work.
