"Version" sadly often used in a wrong way. All these games are not different versions of the same game. Maybe it would be better to say they are "iterations of the same story premisse that often share most characters and a good part of the story/plot" ... on the other hand "versions" is a bit shorter.

If you want to generate your own images, use unren to unpack the game resource files. This will generate webp images of all used character pics, clothing, background. Then use a photo software that supports layers and can read webp to combine the images.
An alternative is to actually play the game and unlock the options to remove clothing ingame.

Wait until CH1 is finished if you only want to play once.
This game is a disgrace. He restarted with the excuse of reworking the code for faster updates. But the reality of the game is just dreams scenes and milking subs.
That bugs me to. They could have just re-wrote the older code to optimize it, but no they had to do a total restart. Love the game, but this excuse it's stupid.

It was not so much about the code, but the source files (layers and so on). The new file structure is better organized and standardized.
But I think we all agree that he completely misjudged the future development speed. At least we already got some extra stuff, more to come. Why he didn't just recreate what he had done so far ... dunno.

Yeah IMO what he should have done with the initial rebuild version is reuse his existing images instead of redoing them. Add new stuff using whatever new methods he decided on, and if he wanted to replace the old images, do that slowly as kind of a bit of an add on to whatever new development happened. So the rebuild would have started off already having as much content as the previous version and he could slowly replace the original images if he wanted to while he added new stuff.
If development speed had actually improved with the rebuild like he predicted then a full redo without reusing anything would have been fine and I don't think many would have complained if we were consistently getting bigger updates at a faster pace than before. But we're not.
I do like the game, but at current dev cycle it's going to take years before we have anything resembling a playable game rather than a tech demo.
An example of a rebuild done right IMO is LOP's rebuild of LWT. It used to be a flash game and had several expansions. First version of the rebuild came out using Renpy awhile ago and was basically just a tech demo with only about a week or 2 of playable content. It was kind of buggy and there wasn't that much to do yet but you could see their new systems and get a feel for how it would play when they got farther along.
Second version had most of the content from the full original game plus some of the expansions including some entirely new scenes, but mostly rewritten original scenes with the original images. Next version is supposed to be almost entirely caught up to the full version plus all of the expansions, and then they plan on adding a decent amount of entirely new content going forward from there.
Regardless whether you like LWT or not, THAT's how you do a rebuild IMO.

There is one update left. It will probably be released at the end of August.
New generation models, clothes, and so on were indeed an important aspect, but the code was paramount. The last testing of version 0.09 took about 2 weeks. And all further testing would take even more time.
Now, technically, nothing has changed, but the trick is to divide it into Chapters. You just test 6 updates of one Chapter, and then you start all over again.
However, the most important nuance is that the old version was not what Alexey wanted to create.
Interestingly, PornGodNoob does not have such testing problems.
By the way, the approximate time frame for the development of the entire game of five Chapters has been announced. This is 10 years, not 7.5 years, as I thought earlier
This part at least I can understand. If you as the dev don't like what you're creating then it's doomed to failure. So continuing the previous version would likely have just lead to it being abandoned. So from that standpoint the rebuild is a good thing.
Not sure what lead to him creating content he didn't like in the first place, but from my modding experience I suspect maybe he let his fans lead him astray and develop in a direction he personally didn't like. I tried that as well and it just doesn't work.
