7 months Dev time? Holy shit this is a huge fuckin update. Really thought it would be quicker this time

 

[DrSoong]

Yeah, you could just go to N7 profile and see the last post, no need of reading 15 pages of stupidities (let´s face it, this forum is 99% stupidities from people with no life and bored to death)

No need to inferring from yourself to others.

I told you guys it was gonna be a carnival time masking

What happen to Jill'face ,OMG,I can't look into it

what do you mean what happened, it's always been like that

 

[ffive]

Maybe Josy will become MC personal stripper along with Lily just imagine the diks works out a deal so they get the pink rose to themself's for the night so on MC night 4some with Josy, Lily, and Nicole

Josy will take Lily up on her offer to work as a stripper, so she can raise money for Maya's tuition after the meeting with Sage's parents doesn't work out.

Cue the NTReeeeeeeeeee outrage.

 

[Geralt From Rivia]

2weeks ago: My current estimation is that 70-100 animations remain to be posed.
50-80 now
I don't remember his computers rendering more than 12 per/w. Depends on the length of the animations of course.
Animations: 6-10w
Beta test: 2w
That's the best case scenario. No chance for november.

I remember records of 20 animations per week during the development of episodes 7-8

Wow, thanks. N7 didn't post status updates so I thought there is no status updates anymore

There's been two different renders with stripper Josy posted in this thread in last weeks. Check some (dozens of) pages back for the other one.

This week I started off making animations and renders for a lewd scene. After that, I felt like playtesting Sage's branch while polishing everything I found along the way.

I created Pack quest for the episode, added all lewd scenes to the gallery, tested special renders, and fixed some code for it. I fixed a big chunk of the final free-roam event code and wrote a bit more dialogue. I added some more choices and a couple of new scenes and polished what I could spot.

I enjoyed playing Sage's branch, and I'm sure you will too. What struck me the most were the differences between Isabella's and Sage's branches, playing them back-to-back. All hard work is feeling worthwhile, and this episode is starting to come together.

Here are some stats on the current progress and what I have left to do:

Episode 9 current total:

• 4564 static renders (0 in the render queue)
• 260 animations (231 animations produced, 29 in the render queue)
• 25 new songs
• 8 new sound effects
• 18 2D-art pieces
• 5 2D-art animations

Work that remains:

• 2 scenes left to write
• 6 scenes left to make art for
• 3 lewd scenes to make animations for (50-80 animations)
• Make some missing GUI for the new mini-game.
• Add music (95% done)
• Add SFX (95% done)
• Special renders/2D art - Some testing remains
• Scenes gallery - Testing and a couple of thumbnails for the missing lewd scenes remain
• Playtest and polish (20%)
• "Previously on Being a DIK" section
• Ending screens for all branches
• Verify bug fixes from the Interlude.

Phone content:

• Rooster (90% done)
• Phone chats (90% done)
• Bios (0% done)
• Stats (Testing remains)
• Vault (Testing remains)

Overall completion:
Static renders: 95% (Based on a 4800 render target)

Animations: 76%-84% (Final animation count is still hard to estimate)

Writing/Coding: 95%

Further insight:
I am currently alternating between writing the final scenes, posing animations, and playtesting/polishing everything. As always, I aim to keep a 24/7 uptime on my render stations while multitasking the remaining areas.

Have a nice weekend

Well here are some tables. Still renders passed episode 8 a couple of weeks ago. Nice progress probably still a few hundred left to pose and render, depending on how big the remaining scenes are. Average for the episode is up to 142.6 a week so getting close to the 148 average of episode 8. This should be a fairly straight forward, as we've known for the last few months the animations are what is drawing things out.



Animations are a little harder to judge anyway, but progress this episode has been closer to the dev cycles of episode 5 and 6 while totals have now surpassed the one time high of episode 7 and and could reach above episode 8, presuming there are, as he forecasts, between 79 and 109 to render (not to mention posing 50-80).



The average for this epsodes animations has been 8.1 per week. This has included some long animations and so it's a litte hard to compare with previous releases. That said the last few weeks when DPC said he'd be working on shorter animations have seen an average of 11.8 completed per week. (59 between week 27 and 32). If the later average holds he has between 6.7 and 9.2 weeks of rendering time left for animations. This would mean animations completed between November 18th and December 9th. With two weeks of beta testing a December release is now almost certain with a release around Christmas very possible.

 

[Darkwen]

Ahh gotcha, it just said preview #2 and #3 respectively to the 2 stripper ones, i assume #1 is an unrelated preview?

one I believe is the normal preview for Josy in EP9 well as normal as the best girl can be

 

[dalli_x]

I'm reckoning the pregnancy test is Ashley and it's Derek's

Quite possible. During a Rooster Cluck in EP4 by Derek Branch, the MC can reply that the two should finally get a room. It even says so in the official walkthrough.

And one time at the HOTs house (don't know the Ep, but it was the one Maya visiting Josy after she got a HOT), Ashley and Derek both entered a room (i'll think, it was empty before and no one went in with them), so this also could be the source of the later pregnancy test.

I enjoyed playing Sage's branch, and I'm sure you will too.

Oh, you bet your ass I will enjoy Sage's play through. But you gotta finish the chapter first mate
