Hey, how are you doin', everyone?

2 months from the release of Ch2, and I'm currently at 600 images. As always, I run into some complications, but whatever, I'm trying to stay positive. One scene, which wasn't even that complicated, gave me a really big headache. The first day, everything in the render queue was set to 8K resolution (6 hours of rendering for one image). When I woke up, I found out that only two images were done (yeah, I'm dumb). I went back, redoed everything, and set up a new render queue. This time, I messed up something else (yeah, I'm dumb even more). Everything was fine the third time (thankfully), and the scene was completed.

However, besides the usual stuff, I've written a cinematic that should be at the beginning of Chapter 3. It's hard to say what outcome I'm going to have from this, but according to the written part, it's really beautiful. I think I never mentioned that to you, but when I was younger, I used to play piano for a few years, and it's like riding a bicycle - you can't forget that. That's why I decided that I could maybe get back to this stuff a little bit and do some music for a game. Of course, I'm not Beethoven, but I can do something, I guess, at least for some specific moments in the game.

Besides that, there is not much to say. The writing is going well; I fell in love with the visual for Chapter 3, and we will see what's going to happen after the release. However, I'm really looking forward to that; I'm excited.

At the end, some previews
