Status update Episode 6
Added 2020-09-25 14:01:18 +0000 UTC
This week I've mostly been writing, polishing the game and coding while letting the PCs render the queue. I've posed some animations and static renders as well, so it's moving forward in all areas.
I'm almost finished writing, I have some phone content left and material for two free roam events.
2879 renders and 116 animations are complete.
The queue has 125 renders and 37 animations; meaning we're currently at 3004 renders and 153 animations for this update when everything has rendered.
I will be focusing on posing art next week. I have roughly 10-15 animations left to pose along with 150-300 static renders.
After I have posed everything I'll try to estimate the remaining render time. When all art is posed and I have to wait for it to render, I will playtest and polish the game myself. After that beta testing and proofreading will start, a process that takes approximately two weeks. Given the size and content of the episode, two weeks will likely be needed.
I haven't checked the file size of the game for this episode until now, and the zip file of the full download is currently 10.4 GB. I don't think it will be more than 11 GB, but that's the approximate space you will need for the game upon release (plus space for extracting the files of course).
Have a nice weekend

2020-10-02 08:22:14 +0000 UTCThe bottlenecks are currently quite balanced and are rendering and manual labor. Render farms are a waste of money and I don't specify my gear due to several reasons, but I know what I'm doing and I've also said in comments before that I'm planning an upgrade. Jumping on the new technology just to get any card is never good. I need specific types of fans and custom builds to be able to do what I do.

2020-10-02 00:31:04 +0000 UTCyou should upgrade to the 3090 RTX with either a top end AMD or Intel chip for rendering.

2020-09-25 14:29:40 +0000 UTCCompletely hypothetical for fun.... we are in the middle of chapter 6 and 3 new rejects join B & R. Melissa, Megan and Rena. Question.... How many of you would stay loyal to the main 5 girls? (Heart this comment if this is you) OR How many of you would dump your love interest in a heartbeat and go for one of those 3? (Comment if this is you) again for fun, I'd dump them all for Melissa.. she captured my heart long before i played BaD lol..... so what would you do?
