Final rendering has finished.

Hello,

So... After a while, I managed to get that nightmare of a scene under control and did finish it.

This is just a quick update letting you guys know that the rendering has finished for Chapter 3.5.

We are looking at:

~ 1400 still renders.
~ 6000 - 7000 animation frames. (I didn't bother counting them all this time.)

Which took me around 4 months and 2 weeks. (The last scene alone took me 1 1/2 months lol.)
I did take a break after the crunch disaster of Chapter 3.

This is the first half chapter update- which turned out a little bit bigger than expected in terms of the render count.

Could have been done earlier- but who would've thought that the 3090 would already be maxed out.
The third 2080Ti I had on the SG PC hasn't had work in like a month due to the heavy scenes.
But Chapter 4 will be a little easier to render and I can count on the 2080Ti speed boost again.

But more info about Chapter 4 after the main release of Chapter 3.5.

Anyway, I will now have to do postwork on 1200 of the 1400 renders. Implement the new three galleries and the music player.

And I will polish the game a little. I really did go for a beta release this month- but I doubt I can do this.

I also haven't received the proofread version yet.

This also brings me to the point to announce that my current proofreader will not be doing Chapter 4 anymore due to him being busy with his own game and books.

I will need a new editor soon. (Not just a proofreader) who will ofc be paid.

Here is a random preview. You can find 3 more in this POST.

We're so close and I feel soooo much better than at the end of Chapter 3.
I did take Chapter 3.5 really slow and things are great.

I will put in a higher gear for Chapter 4- but I will still go with a comfortable pace.

June Wallpapers will come out in the next two days. Both for WiAB and SG.
