Quick update:
OK, so today I spent the afternoon chatting with another modder (thanks
Way2CoOl!) working through the storyline addition I have in mind.
Also, a huge thanks to
TechCarmin for helping me identify some art assets. The help is much appreciated!
As some of you may have noticed, I like to re-purpose the art assets when I can, so that I'm not breaking visual continuity whenever possible. And I wanted to do something more creative with that end scene in 0.0.7. Plus, as I've mentioned before, I like to keep Steamy light and fluffy whenever possible, because that appeals to me more as a modder. Finally, I like my additions and changes to 'enhance' the story, not change it significantly.
So, short form, the intro of the story is going to change a bit. Nothing drastic, but enough that I'll want you to read through the intro again.
FEAR NOT, I'm NOT going to break any 'end of 0.0.6' saves, instead, where 0.0.6 ends I'm adding a 'check' to see if you've seen the new version of the intro conversation with Monica, and if not, you'll get the opportunity to flash back and play through JUST that part again (up to when you hang up), and then will return to where things left off at 0.0.6.
The conversation has changed enough that this is warranted, as I'm introducing a new 'sub-plot' so to speak. I don't want to get any more detailed than that, but I will say that Monica will play a small role in the story in this edition of the Steamier Mod, incorporating her a bit into the new 0.0.7 story update elements.
Finally, while I'm not trying to write a 'Gone With The Wind' level subplot, I did want to make sure that my addition passed some elementary 'porn logic' so to speak, and as I mentioned Way2CoOl was very helpful in helping me develop a cohesive backstory for the additions I have planned. I'm sure it's not perfect, but I think what I have planned is workable, and won't interfere with the other story elements (so far) very much/will fit within the Steamier Mod setting quite nicely.
I suppose I could develop it into another full blown 'fork', but I want to keep things simple as much as I can, plus at some point T4boo will have advanced the story to the point where there will be quite a bit of action with the gals within the existing story.
Not sure if I'm going to use this as the new splash screen for my mod, or just as a promo pic in the OP, but it looks cool...
(Thanks to T4boo for his assistance with Christine)
Back to work!
