Still working on both animations in this scene, in the background. Got slowed down a bit this week - a number of renders back I noticed that Olivia's nipples started looking "off": pale and partially "submerged" into her breast. At the time I looked at all the typical things that could have gone wrong, but everything was right. Finally, the other day I tried deleting and re-loading something called a geoshell for her nipples, to see what would happen. Lo and behold, that fixed it. Surprising, since the geoshell was there in all the Daz image files just as it should be. Occasionally though, files get corrupted when you work with them a lot under many different conditions and PC states. So that meant I could correct the problem, but also meant I had to fix and re-render 13 images. So that's all done now, but it slowed production for this week. I've updated the affected files on Google Drive if you want new, corrected versions (TAG-C-173, 174, 179, 181 and 184).
This scene is winding to a close: just a few more images and a decision-branch. I realized the other day that I'll have to split this latest scene I've been working on into two scenes, since it doesn't make sense for them to be one big scene, but that only affects gameplay a tiny bit. I've scripted ahead a ways, because the trajectory and ending of this scene seemed quite clear to me, so I have a roadmap for the final images needed to close out this scene.
Once this scene is complete we head into a very interesting final series of scenes that involve the MC returning home after his short separation from Nina. Tensions and suspicions will run high, and the potential for bad shit to happen is there, including a very physical confrontation between the MC and Nina! I doubt I have to telegraph who the likely victor in that struggle might be!
This Upcoming Week:
I'm going out of state to a tradeshow in my vanilla-world industry (yes, I have a real life outside of this VN believe it or not). I'm leaving very early Tuesday and won't be back home until next Saturday night. Since I won't have access to my desktop PC all that time, I don't know what I might have to show you guys for next weekend's update, but I'll do my best to generate some images before I leave. Cheers!
