Ren'Py A House in the Rift [v0.7.9 EA] [Zanith]

[Arassei]

MFF can be romantic but MMF can't? I don't want MMF and even to me that doesn't make any sense at all.

I edited my post in " classic romance situation" (one girl and one man)
The purpose of a " harem " tag is many girls, and one man.
AND it's not just a question of words or situation, but also a question of player's psychology.
You see what I mean ?

Dude you're pushing it now. We get it you don't want to see a virtual cock that you didn't identified as yours but you're just projecting insecurities at this point.
You're keeping this conversation up only to have reinsurance that your feelings won't be hurt if the story deviate even a bit from your standard of relationships but you are not entitled to it. If you want to have a voice in this, back the patreon and participate in the poll, that's all.
Also I want to point that there is nothing "classic" or "vanilla" in a harem, don't get me wrong I enjoy the setting a lot but if I were to search for classic relationships I would look for a story about a couple or a guy with one or more friends with benefits.

Bref respire un coup et va t'hydrater, ça ira mieux après.

Heh heh heh...
I am not feeling " insecure " or whatever. I try to explain something (and I try to limit the catastroph that the Dev will face when his patreons will see some scenes that they absolutely don't want to see...)
A game, with tags, create a first " atmosphere " for the player and said him what he can expect in the game.
Some tags are became " usual " for the player :
Harem, vanilla, MFF ... are usually in the same group, and say to the player : " you are the only lucky one who is getting all the girls "
And " A house in the rift " has that atmosphere from the begining !
That's all.

Bref, lâche-moi la grappe et viens pas me casser les noix avec ta pseudo analyse de psychiatre raté.
En te remerciant...

No problem, and yeah, couldn't be much of a help, to be honest. But while I have very limited experience with not-realtime 3D, 6 hours of render time for one frame sound a little too much. And you have to save each frame as a scene? That's just ouch.

Saving each frame as a scene (scene subset to be specific) is so I can go back and reuse (better render, changes something, etc) without having to make the whole frame again. As it is being used in an animation, I can probably use low render quality for animated frames to cut down some of that render time (also, if I remember to make sure the hair resolution is set to base instead of high).

Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly, since you are using Unity, the animations are rendered in realtime by the user's machine, like a "normal" video game (eg Call of Duty, Metro, Tomb Raider, etc)? Or are they already rendered before the game release is compiled?

That new teaser animation looks great. I seriously need to look at doing animations your way.

The thing is that " vanilla " invole some kind of " classic romance situation ". This is what vanilla really means.

Vanilla sex does not require romance just as non-vanilla or even super extreme kinky sex doesn't preclude romantic situations, typically when someone refers to sex or whatever as vanilla they are saying it is standard, ordinary, regular etc.

Sorry that's the standard definition.

I appreciate your concern, but I sincerely think that it won't come to that. I try to be as open as I can about the direction of the game and I try to listen to any and all feedback. I just don't want to say that "this won't be in the game" about most thing. I can safely say that there won't be super extreme things, though, because I just don't want to make this stuff.

That's all.

I agree with that and as I said, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Saving each frame as a scene (scene subset to be specific) is so I can go back and reuse (better render, changes something, etc) without having to make the whole frame again. As it is being used in an animation, I can probably use low render quality for animated frames to cut down some of that render time (also, if I remember to make sure the hair resolution is set to base instead of high).

Makes sense. I've only launched Daz a couple of times, cannot stand its UI, but I kinda assumed that it would have some sort of timeline with keyframes and all that, so you can easily make animations by changing only things that need to be changed between frames.

Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly, since you are using Unity, the animations are rendered in realtime by the user's machine, like a "normal" video game (eg Call of Duty, Metro, Tomb Raider, etc)? Or are they already rendered before the game release is compiled?

Rendered in realtime, yup. That why there are certain issues with transparent objects, clipping issues (can't really run softbody physics in realtime, and the engine isn't suited for that anyway). Adjusting materials on scene-by-scene basis and applying bone modifiers is one of the biggest time sinks with this setup.

That new teaser animation looks great. I seriously need to look at doing animations your way.

Thanks! Although this particular animation is 90% premade, only had to adjust some parts.

Thanks to dream walking you have a lot of options to add various kinks. I could easily see a scenario down the line where Azraesha, or Caitlin (The most reserved is bound to be the most kinky) having a dream with MCx2. Or just a reminiscence of a past event like Naomi's second dream.

Stepping into their imagination gives you lots of wiggle room without impacting their relationship with the MC. Not all players would see it that way, but *some* dreams could be simple what if scenarios that have no relevance to the main story.

I try to limit the catastroph that the Dev will face when his patreons will see some scenes that they absolutely don't want to see...

Yeah, because patrons are going to vote for scenes they don't want to see. Makes sense.
Also, I absolutely don't want to see FemDom, so I don't play Naomi's FemDom route. Simple.

That's an amazing idea. I like MMF well enough in porn, but don't want to share any of 'my' girls with another dude in games. But yeah, the dreamworld would let you fill them with cocks from every angle without any other dudes involved.

In my mind I see a mock NTR scene with MC duplicate
"Whose dick makes you cum harder?" [MC Dupe]
"Umm...It's about the same really...sorry...I mean yours is so much better..." [Your Waifu]

There is an unofficial (I think) android port I tried but it has script errors with Caitlin after the arrival scenes, errors are in the library and her room so far. Was wondering if there's a fix, or I was going to try to fix the files in it on my pc.

The official android version is coming, not this week as I'm running late with scenes for 0.3.5 alpha (again), but I'll probably drop everything and get it done next week.

Thinking about the dreams, one thing I've been thinking about for a while would be that the dreams would be a good place to put a scene gallery, where you can repeat old non-repeatable scenes. Maybe with a little extra bit with Rae after each one, as she revealed after the dream with Jenny that she can peek?

I like the idea itself, but given that I can't even put a simple one in the game yet, that's something for the very back of my backlog. And thanks for reminding me, totally forgot to post the poll notification here.

Poll notification: VoTES into Dreams

There are quite a few mentions of dreamwalk and all that good stuff in the game, but the dreams themselves are few and far between, and this kinda sucks, doesn't it? So I'll be adding more of them, and there are a couple of CG sets that are practically begging to be made into scenes, and this poll will decide which one will be first. It is open for all Neighbour ($5) and higher level Patrons at

Well, I already said all I wanted to said so...
Just one more thing : maybe it would be better to let " everyone" participate to the poll. They will be able to see where the game goes, and maybe you will have more patreon after.
Good luck to you.

Idk if this one was already reported, but oh well. Get this one while talk with Cait around the moment with the erotic book.

[itsfickfuckthings]

I read somewhere that there is a thigh job with caitlin. Is this true? If so, how can i trigger it? And is it a repeatable scene? Caitlin is at 20/10 btw.
