It is on the other side so you can't see it :ROFLMAO:. Next time I will use a proper paper bag:BootyTime:. Cheers.
As an expert archer IRL, my first thought when I saw Cassandra's image was, "Hey, I could print that, paint a bullseye on her face and use it for an archery target!" Hahaha:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Happy Monday all!

Another week zips by! I'll start with some mild bad news. I have to push back the Steam release a bit further. I've been mostly focused on CH5 and have not done much work on the Steam build as a result. It's been a bit stressful juggling both while trying not to make the CH5 another 9 month cycle. Doing my absolute best to release sooner this cycle. Back to Steam, on top of the Steam build not being done, I also haven't done much marketing with it so the numbers aren't where they should be in terms of wishlist. But the good news is that I've managed to get the renders needed for the trailer done and I sent them over to someone who will piece this together for me. Once I have the trailer done, the storefront will be done and all that will remain is the build itself. So, I apologize to anyone waiting on Steam.

The trailer itself will be an alternate take on the camping trip from CH3. It'll play out like a very short scene and I look forward to seeing it complete. Here's one of the renders I made for the trailer.



As for CH5, things are going smoothly. Regarding my test renders and Artemis, the location itself seems to be impacting the render times when combined with the closeup shots. I've also tweaked the settings a bit. Still rendering at 4K but brought down the iterations from 8k to 6k. This is more of a bandaid, but I've only got one more scene to do in the workshop that includes Artemis. Fortunately, a change in location was already planned and decorated, ready to go. So, very good news there.

Shortly after this post, I'll put up the poll that will determine Artemis' new outfit for Book Two. She will sport various outfits throughout Book Two, but this is going to be her "at home" outfit. I personally like them all, but I'll leave this choice up to you.



That's all for this week!

Take care and be safe!

Here's how that outfit poll stands as of now:

Artemis - Book Two outfit
View attachment 2390889

A 39%
B 7%
C 53%

432 votes total 6 days left


Patrons seem to like that the red contrasts with the bionic arm. I voted for A.
Also voted for A, but I don't mind C either, there's only the B one I don't particularly like, there's just something off.

Interesting. I feel almost exactly the same, and comments on the post indicated people would have voted for A if it was red. But yea, just glad B is getting the attention it deserves (in comparison).

I, too, would go for A and part of the reason is one can't see the wrinkles in A (if there are any). In C, the wrinkles in the shorts don't cut it. They would not appear like that IRL. The wrinkles in B are a bit more realistic.

Why not going for both options? :WeSmart:
Artemis will have various outfits but the poll is for the "at home" outfit. I guess it will be easier for dev to render all the home scenes with just 1 outfit than 2 or more.

Honestly, the choices kinda biased towards C because the outfit is red but A and B are black, so red will stand out. If C is also black, then it is fairer. You can have another poll just for the color.

Eh. I think that´s kinda personal taste. My vote would have been A. B is just.... boring. And C is more like a sports outfit imho.
