We already have one of these in existence, the loli pack. The general idea is a pack to overlay the base imagery of the game. Based on a discussion over on F95, I've had the idea to try to assemble a "real life" image back. Basically a pack that would fit in with the various real-girl packs.
So this post's purpose is 2-fold.
First, does anyone have any ideas for other themes that could produce a brothel overlay pack?
Second, if anyone wants to contribute images to the "real life" pack, feel free to do so in here. My next step will be to go collect a summary of what images such an overlay pack would entail. The obvious thing is room images for the four types of job rooms and the various levels of sleeping rooms. If you want to contribute, please put the images themselves over on Imgur and link them into this thread.
Ok. There are a lot of images.

I think that about covers the ones most easily replaced. Whew, that's a lot.
I do have an idea for a different game theme, but at that point I would try and completely re-make the entire game, if Goldo allows it.
I always had an idea for a fantasy / lewd / survival game, and with AI art being copyright free, it's becoming a possibility now. It can even create user interfaces. The only thing I lack is the programming skills to create the foundations for a game, and BK has so much to build upon.
Theme examples: https://imgur.com/a/Wru1oat (I've got 100+ images like that in less than 3 days)
The 4 basic jobs would be replaced with Foraging, Mining, Woodcutting and Hunting, the combat would be overhauled entirely with a turn based/QTE system, and the story would have a more serious tone set in a shifting world that exists as a sort of hell for men (full of temptation and naked girls, but men die if touched by a woman). This would also account for the current limitations of AI gen, which is the fact that it sucks at creating sex images.

My first thought was also of AI generated art, with the idea that you could completely rid Base-BK of all copyrighted material. But the only tricky part (for now) would be replacing the NPC characters that have multiple own CG-scenes.
As a different theme, a modern-day or a futuristic setting could work. It's hard to tell how noticable the disconnect between the dialogue and the visuals would be.

Yeah that's also why I thought making a spin-off game from a brothel focused setting to a survival one would be beneficial. AI can make stunning nude pictures, but can't do anatomically correct sex. The adult content of the game could consist of different outfits, nudes, and story pictures until AI technology has advanced enough.
It would be a lot of work, but many things under the hood could be perfect with small changes. Like the 4 professions giving materials instead of gold (stone/iron/gems for Mining, leather/bone/meat for Hunting, hemp/berries/random loot for Foraging, wood/branches/sap for Woodcutting, etc...)
The survival mod idea is something different. As Goldo has said, writing the story for the game is a lot more work than writing the code for the game. And that survival idea is basically rewriting the story from the ground up.
Modern and futuristic are good for possible art overlay themes.

Here's some samples of some non-location images I've gathered. This is a first pass, non-curated. Assassins, thieves, knights, adventurers, etc. Most, but not all, of these originate from a site called Bare Maidens, which specializes in fantasy themed soft-porn sets. So lots of see-through chain-mail bikinis and such.
The imgur link doesn't work for me, but Bare Maidens looks like a great resource. In my opinion such an artstyle overhaul wouldn't be complete without also replacing all the NPC's, but ofcourse that'd make the task even bigger than it already is.
edit: Also, I would be slightly concerned about the copyright holders finding out & not playing nice. I get the feeling that this would be slightly more risky compared to BK's vanilla imagery.

I would be up to the task of writing the story and large part of the world-building, its the code part that stops me in my tracks. Intro example:

A novel-style narrative like this, paired with fantasy AI art and generated user interface could be so good.

Of course this is just an idealistic vision that would take time and effort for a group to realize, but with such high quality art being available to use on the public domain, there is so much potential. F95 also doesn't have too many games with both an immersive story and fun gameplay, so there is definitely a niche to capitalize on.
Buuuuut I'm happy to help the development (and eventual independence from copyrighted material) in any way I can. It's just that, unless commissioned, there is no way to get hentai/sex material without stepping on the toes of copyright holders. Not right now at least, and probably not for a few more years.

If you were to go that route, I think starting a whole new game from scratch would actually take less time than adapting BK. There's literally nothing that survives from BK, except the idea of having 4 jobs. ;D
But for the record, I am fine with anyone wanting to mod/fork BK (as long as minimal credit is given and outside of commercial use).

Yeah the more I delve into it, the more I realize how complex BK is. I think I'm just gonna start from scratch with my own game, though I'll try to study your code as I go.

There are definitely things to canibalize from BK, though it's likely more a piece here, a piece there, and so on.
If you are wanting to use the BK girl packs, for instance, you likely want to grab a good amount of the code that BK uses to support them. We've had people talk before about making a second game to use the existing packs, but nothing has actually been done. But the community in general has been supportive of the idea. A lot of the expanded tag set are tags that the main game does not, and likely never will, use. They were put into place to tag additional things that a future second game might want to use.
