Ren'Py Big Brother: Another Story Rebuild [v0.08.02] [Aleksey90]
- Thread starter Crazygamer43
- Start date
Hello, do you know how match content is going to be added in the June's update (e.g. content since legacy version 5)?
Considering how much content there was with the re-release I'm not holding out much hope for a good chunk or content.

The plan was to be on pair with the legacy version by the end of summer. I don't believe he will be able to keep that up, but I also don't think he will be far from it. Of course we don't know how the new paths will look and of course he changed the story flow as well.
The day one demo is nothing but a day one demo. It was planed as day one demo and that's why it only has day one in it. By the time it was released he had already done more. In the source files you can see several random event scenes that are not visible on day one.

In terms of days it's hard to say, maybe 5-6 days(in game) needed to see new content, not real sure. Of course one can keep playing as long as they want. When testing starts I'll know more and will keep you informed.

Lol can you be a bit more vague just to add to the suspense?In terms of days it's hard to say, maybe 5-6 days(in game) needed to see new content, not real sure. Of course one can keep playing as long as they want. When testing starts I'll know more and will keep you informed.
I realise it's hard to estimate especially when it's a sandbox game where the orders may varyI don't know what his plans are, but to me it would make a lot of sense to focus on fleshing out some repeatable content with the girls you can get the farthest with the fastest for the next release. So for instance put the photo shoot with Kira in there and let us start fucking Kira.
Put a fleshed out version of Alice's girls night out on Friday night with Kira. Alice and Kira both have reason to be not just a little drunk that night, but absolutely hammered. So it's completely believable for us to be able to do pretty much anything with either of them on Friday nights. Alice could legitimately not remember what happened or she could pretend not to. For Kira it doesn't really matter IMO, but I think it makes more sense for her to remember everything. I also think it would be interesting if there was a version where Max stays on the couch and watches TV and both Alice and Kira head to the bathroom and lez out on each other with Max obviously having an option to catch the show.
With the girls going shopping on Saturday I think it would also be nice to have a repeatable daytime scene with Kira which can escalate to pretty much anything while she's alone with Max.
Progress with Lisa and Ann are presumable going to be a slow burn so it doesn't really matter if there's much if any progress with them in the next update unless he plans on waiting for the next release until he's actually caught up with where the previous version was. I would agree that catching up by summer seems unlikely given his track record, but I'd love to be proven wrong on that.
Personally, I would also love to see a scene along this line with Ann being the one watching and Kira being the one on the couch on Wednesday and Sunday nights:

I see you describe here lewd scenes and not relationship development and story progress(except "faster!") and that's what Alexey kept focusing on so far and most likely will do in the future. He is not like Dark Silver putting every kink in the games the fans can think of. If X goes to bed with Y while Z watches fits the progress in the story, it will happen, not the other way around.

The only "kink" I'd like to see could fit in with a big theme of the game (voyeurism/hidden cams/etc) but it's not a deal breaker or anything.
I can't and won't demand anything, really no one can "demand" anything.

I was just throwing out ideas for things that I thought would fit well with what he's done so far and lead to a satisfying amount of advancement with at least a couple of the girls while still being plausible to happen in 1 update due to the alcohol component. Progress that is more story dependent and does not involve alcohol will presumably take longer to develop and thus might not make it into the next release unless the rebuild did something that made development progress easier to make for him than in the past.
I have other things to play including my own game that is under development. So I don't really care if it takes a month or a year for the next update. I agree that he should do whatever he wants as far as the story but there's no harm in making suggestions.

Huh? Ann sunbathing naked? The most uptight of all the girls is doing this already?
Not complaining at all
, just finding it very surprising for her to be doing this so soon narrative wise. Could it be Olivia's influence?
You sure this isn't just like in the demo?, you can turn Nudity on so that the girls are always naked, but they dont ever acknowledge it, so Ann might not have actually gotten that far in corruption.

Wouldn't it increase rendering time of all images? Lets hope he'll add outfits so the feature wouldn't be just for nudity toggle. I mean it'd be a waste of rendering time if it was only for that.
Last time I looked he renders all of the female characters naked for all scenes and then renders the clothing separately. So the render time on the clothing is miniscule since it's just the clothing and literally nothing else. So you're talking maybe 30 minutes or something to render the girl naked in some pose and then like 10 seconds per outfit to render however many outfits she could be wearing in that particular scene in that pose. It does still require set up time, posing, coding, etc though. It's not just render time.
I found the code particularly annoying when I tried that in my mod. I didn't use layers. I rendered the full scene using different outfits. Personally I didn't consider it worth the trouble. I just did it because the dev did that in the original game so I thought I'd play around with it as well in my mod.
One change he said he did make in the rebuild was to prioritize clothing that has built in morphs for lewd scenes like undressing, sex scenes while still wearing clothing, etc. Clothing without premade morphs is a massive headache to manually manipulate when you're trying to do scenes like that since it's meant to form to the character wearing it. For a scene that takes maybe 30 minutes to put the character herself into a pose you want, if you want to have a scene where she slides her skirt down half way, just managing to get her skirt into that position while still looking like she's wearing it might take you several hours if you can do it at all, especially if her legs are bent at all. So using clothing with built in morphs should save him a huge amount of time for any kind of lewd scene that includes clothing being removed or manipulated.

Think that comes from Glamour, even BBAS hadn't gone that far yet as even the girls aren't sunbathing naked.Huh? Ann sunbathing naked? The most uptight of all the girls is doing this already?
