Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies.You must be registered to see the links
I've been busy working on art this week. I completed the art for one normal scene and one lewd scene and have started working on the final big scene of the episode, which has lewd and story aspects.
This scene will take me 1-2 weeks of writing and posing. I have reserved a maximum of 50 animations for the scene, but it might be slightly lower than that.
After completing that scene, I can start working on the remaining tasks. Here is an updated checklist for the remaining part of the development.
Checklist Episode 10
This is the current checklist of what's left to do before beta testing and proofreading can begin. I have left bullet points from the previous checklist in it for clarity.
Scenes
One lewd scene with story aspects surrounding it remains. It's partly written, and I have started making art for it.
Art
I estimate I must pose an additional ~200 static renders and up to 50 animations.
Current static render count: 5539 produced. 62 posed renders in the render queue. 5601 renders in total.
Current animation count: 257 produced. 41 posed animations in the render queue. 298 animations in total.
Code
Pack Quest - Completed but not tested.
Vault - Completed but not tested.
Rewards/2D art - Almost completed; only one special render must be added to the story. Testing and possibly correction of code are needed.
Gallery - The lewd gallery has been coded but can't be tested until all lewd scenes have been made. Some art remains for miniature images.
Phone content - There's some work left with the Rooster and Chat apps. The new phone gallery has gotten more content since last time and will get even more. The music app may need updated code to include new songs added after today; it's synchronized with the current state of the episode.
Bios - I always leave bios for the last part of the development.
Episode end screen and report - The end screen is added and tested. The reports are written but need more work, trimming, and testing.
Credits - Completed and tested.
Sound
Some SFX work remains; I will get to it when I polish the episode.
26 new songs have been added so far. Some work remains in this area for a few scenes.
Testing
I have played the episode from start to finish once, but art was missing during some scenes as they were in the render queue.
My personal tests and polishing remain.
My thoughts on the checklist
Lots of progress has been made since I wrote the checklist last time. The predicted render count has increased slightly but should be accurate for what remains.
Posing the remaining animations will take some time, but rendering them will be the bottleneck. Looking at the current render queue and the predicted animations, we're talking about roughly 90 animations that need time to render.
As I've said earlier, I will work on polishing the episode during the time these animations render. And polishing the episode will require plenty of time, too, to ensure that the quality is high regardless of branch and playstyle. I will post more information about this process when I start it.
My general feeling about the episode development right now is that I'm beginning to see the end of it for the first time since it started. The remaining tasks are finally tangible, and I can feel how that motivates me tremendously.
My plan going forward
I want to complete the remaining art as fast as possible, without rushing it, because I appreciate its importance. I want to reach the polishing state within the next 3-4 weeks.
Once I've reached that state of development, I will get a better feel of how much work it entails and hopefully get an estimate on the remaining render time.
Have a nice weekend.

A couple weeks ago, I thought he would stop at the 5500-5600 render count and he ended up adding another 200 renders.You must be registered to see the links

Ok, a week more or a week less is not that big of a deal in the context of a 9 month wait.
For me the problem lies also in his saying that only now he sees the end. I don't even want to imagine the chaos in his flowchart if only now he realized that the game is completely finished in terms of structure and scenario. Now imagine what will happen during the development of episode 11 and 12. The variables will continue to branch and at some point everything will go wrong. I am sure that in episode 10 everything will not be perfect in terms of branching and there will be a lot of problems.
What's a bit stressful is his extremely vague and florid explanations about "polishing". What is that anyway? I know what polishing is in 3D design: it's removing unnecessary polygons, optimizing the scene, preparing the scene for UW unwrapping and baking. I just can't imagine what he'll be doing for a month. The only reasonable explanation is that he will be building the game, in fact he doesn't have it built, he just renders it and that's it.
As for the animation. I certainly hope the animations were worth it, but I think back to the animations in episode 9 and at least hope they won't be as awful as they were then. I'm willing to tolerate the animations if they were all lewd.
The game will of course come out this year. I'll be very surprised that the update will come out at the end of December, but judging by his words we need to wait at least a month and a half to get an approximate completion date. And that's early November.
All in all, of course, these are all pessimistic thoughts. For him Being a Dik is a hobby, not a job and we have to put up with it whether you like it or not. He is not a milker in the way we see him. He just doesn't have his workflow organized. With proper organization we could save about a month or more.
P.S.
This is the second update in a row he's talked about an lewd plot scene. At first I thought it was Lynette, since it's a pretty important plot point and it's tightly connected to Jill. But spending a huge amount of animation on sex with Jill seems weird to me. It should be Zoe because they have unresolved romantic issues and Zoe deserves a big scene, but she's not the main girl.
I generally have a hard time envisioning the situation of a plotline lewd scene.
People forget, or weren't around to know, but American Pie was indeed a cultural phenomenon when it came out. It was everywhere. Everyone talked about it. You knew famous lines and scenes even if you hadn't seen the film.as orgitas already said, it is 1 of the films that inspired the game. granted, its low brow dick and fart jokes. but the imapct it had at the time was pretty big. there are multiple terms it either created or at least put into common use. "milf", or "one time at band camp" just start the list. it also gave us our first look at joshy (before maya made him a lesbian)

"just american pie" ........how dare you sir!
That was a unique time. The Matrix and Fight Club came out in 1999. So did The Sixth Sense and Blair Witch. Very significant films for various reasons, all released within a year.

I can't be sure that this obligatory plot scene with lewd elements is Zoey. As much as I like her, it would be stupid to make a scene with her that can't be avoided. It is unacceptable to force a route with her for the players; first of all, not everyone likes Zoey. Secondly, many players have already chosen LI, a scene with her would be an imposed cheating that can't be avoided. It's stupid.
I have a suspicion that this big plot scene is another flashback from the diary, it will be Neil/Lynette. But lewd content? I imagine a weirded MC's face.

It could be a scene like the one in the finale of the last chapter, 'same scene' with the different LIs, all with consequences. Also it is not necessarily a common scene in every run, I don't recall DPC ever saying anything about it

Btw, that's also possible. That's why such a huge number of animations are needed for one scene. Damn, I hope they won't be as long as the "special animations" from the Ep. 9.
Hello, Based Department? Girls with luscious lips are the best girls.

I think it was in episode 8 when she turns up at Neil's and the camera pans up and it reveals her face. I saw the lips and was like "Wow. I love her already.". She's one of the hottest girls in the game. But, you know, won't start a cult or anything. I still have some dignity left, after all!Btw, that's also possible.

I just hope shit like this is not the reason we will have to wait 10+ months for an update. What do you all think, how long this took ?

Of course, you shouldn't do that. This requires something worthwhile.

Oh we haved here a church of the Saint Zoey earlier with several users. Around the beginning of the year.
This picture was origignally made by Ached Croissant, biggest Zoey fan (now in exile), we picked it up and made the Church of St. Zoey for the memes and laughter.
This joke quickly got out of control and many began to ask to make saints for them and putted them on their profile pictures. We had Saints Sage, Camila, Riona, Quinn and...Tybalt.
We even have Jill the Jesus that times...
It was a lot of fun and we were just blowing up the place with memes since there wasn't much to discuss after Ep.9, it didn't bring much new to the story. But all the jokes get boring if you repeat them endlessly, and the saints are soon over. And only KARAMBA remains faithful to Divine Quinn.
Regarding your tastes, it's good to see that Zoey is attracting new people to the game, for many people I spoke with she gave a second wind when some people began to get tired about the game.
