Hello there, KaiserST here to bring you all some more bad news!


TLDR

We are fucked, too many animations to render (at fucking 60fps no less), no update before the end of january.
thank you for this!
There were some that said somehow dpc was operating at 12 animations per week, how does that alter the dates?
i still hope for a end of dec release, but fear it is slipping away

Too many files. Can someone suggest which files to download to play the game from beginning?
Start with Season 1-2 file, you'll need to click spoiler under 'Season 1-2' to see them. After you finish that you can transfer your saves into season 3. Have fun. :)

True, there are no rules, the problem is that we can't fight dirty either. I guess DPC didn't think of that, maybe that's why the only three characters that fight dirty are dawe, tommy and vinny. :HideThePain:
DPC thought that it would make more sense plot-wise that the MC doesn't fight dirty because of what he was taught by his father and also that it doesn't matter that much, because the fights that happen in the game are a romanticized version of fighting like it is in most games where it's not so much about the MC's life actually being threatened and they're not "fights to the death" or anything like that but more so about fighting for something else other than survival such as pride. A black eye is the most of an injury we've seen the MC get from fighting. Vinny's gun was something of a wake-up call in that (and in my opinion a much needed one) because soon the MC will realize that he can't just be kickboxing against anybody and everybody in a street fight that ever talked shit to him and he has to be more careful about it, a lesson that he hasn't learned yet thanks to Tommy lying to him about the gun not being real. But it seems that DPC is also leaning to the side of upcoming fights in the game happening in the gym as "competitive fighting" instead of any more street fights since the ring is actually the only place that the MC shouldn't be fighting dirty because neither can his opponents anymore. If the fights in this game were realistic at all the MC would've broken his knuckles a long time ago and the jocks wouldn't be standing in a hallway as stationary targets waiting to be kneed in the face.

DPC has said that EP 11 will have more animations than EP 10, so over 335.

Currently there should be around 235 rendered animations, plus the 37 in the queue plus the 100 he still needs to pose/render.

Sure, some of them are very short & will be merged, but doesn't change the fact that it still a lot of work.
I don’t think you understood what I was saying. Namely while DPC has said there’ll be more animations this episode I don’t believe it was made clear that referred to the post-merge number. So we don’t actually know how many animations they had before going down to 235. So the point is comparing the 100 to go to the merged number isn’t like for like.

Is there anyone posting progress stats for this episode like mpa71 used to. I haven't been paying attention to the progress of this episode and wanted to know if it's been as slow as past episodes; especially with all the "new super fast tech" DPC was raving about toward the end of last episode's development.

12 per week is very far from reality, if that were the case he would be done with all the animations in the episode by the end of june (considering he started rendering at 17/11 and the total of animations this episode is around 372)

At this point I just expect it by january to avoid any more dissapointment.


Is that from the Nora date? Dont remember this scene.


Ah fair enough, its true we can't know for certain since DPC absolutely sucks at giving us some accurate information, remember when he said back in abril he was 65% done with posed animations?

To be fair, he did add some more lewd scenes, but still, he could be better.

However, regardless of animation merging, the final amount of animations will be higher than the previous amount by a fair bit, so I'm pretty confidant in my 372 animations guess.



mpa71 isn't doing those anymore as far as I know, but here is my shamless plug about my post

Also, I maintan a abridged version of all status reports with all the relevant info, here is the updated version.

Not exactly, every once in a while he gives some pretty great reports with plently of data.


Good to see you here my friend, don't mind Darkwen, he is...

Special.
No, he is on his date with Sage. It should be a lover's look, but it looks like a predator at a playground

Oh it could be that it's around 375 when completed, but that 65% done figure may be correct given the whole lack of information around the merge business. And we'd want to hope that it was 65%complete and then merged down to 275 as that'd suggest the last 100 will get done rather fast.
