Dev Update - 2023/07/07

Added 2023-07-07 14:43:46 +0000 UTC

Hello everyone,

Time for the first "real" Dev Update of Chapter 4.
As mentioned last week, I started working on Chapter 4 at the end of last week.
Took me a day to get back into the rhythm but the progress so far is pretty good.
Chapter 4 starts where Chapter 3 ended (surprise!), so the first scenes will be located in Neverwhere.
In general, Neverwhere will be a pretty big chunk of Chapter 4.
So expect a lot of neon lights and "fucking Bladerunner" for the next update.

One of the first scenes, the one I'm working on right now, is one I was looking forward to doing for quite a while now since it contains a reference to one of my favorite movies of all time. I'm smiling while setting up the renders and writing the dialog for it. I just love doing stuff like that.

The scene after will be challenging. It's a pretty important scene story-wise and probably really challenging to do in DAZ. If I don't pay attention, I fully expect it to run out of VRAM for the 4090.

Some numbers for this week:
79 static renders
2 animations
258 lines in the dialog file

The totals... are exactly the same :-P

One more thing before I end this update:
When starting the Patreon page my plan was to start doing polls when I hit 50 patrons. We're getting there. Slowly but steadily at the moment.
So expect some polls in the (not so far) future.
For now, they'll be open to all Patrons (although the tiers say otherwise) so we can have more votes on them.
If you pledged the 5$ tier just for the polls (I don't really think anyone did...) and feel cheated, contact me and we'll solve that.

That's it for now. Have a nice weekend, guys.

Cheers,
Ceolag
