For this week I've been mostly posing static renders and redoing scene setup. It seems the scenes I've used earlier also suffered the same texture glitch I mentioned last week with the characters. In addition to that, I've been working on the sneak peek video, though it turned out really good and I might use it later on for the release date instead.

I've also scrapped and rewrote the Holly route completely. When looking through the first renders and dialogue I got the impression Holly was a relationship-breaker, and that was not how I wanted her to be, so a much needed rewrite had to be done.

Render count is currently at 273 static/3,010 animated frames. Slightly behind where I would have wanted to be, but it's steady progress, and still way to early to predict any release date. March would be a good guess, but it's still just a guess. I'm currently deciding on what will be in chapter 5 and what will be in chapter 6 to stitch it together in the best possible way storywise. Chapter 5 will be bigger than the earlier chapters, but most likely slightly smaller or equal to Chapter 4 in size.

I've had a look at the newly released Genesis 8.1 figure and will rebuild the characters, though this is not a priority right now. Holly and Lexi will have a nice scene in this chapter, and they both already have beautiful bodys... I mean textures. :)

That should be it for now. There will be a cosmetic poll in a week or two, because someone desperately needs a haircut!

Have a nice weekend, and stay safe.
