Finally a Wonderful Shot from the Apartment
Here is a nice little present for you guys. I've had boatloads of issues with the scenes at the apartment and have never been very happy with the shots done there. They always took well over 4 hours and never had the impact as say a shot of Carli at the office would, or Stella at the Awakenings Club Bedroom.
Now though, this one counts as a beautiful render! I have been playing with a few new tools for lighting, texturing, and memory performance. Even with the much higher quality of this shot it only took about 2 hours to render, I was able to leave the majority the scene intact, which helps with the lighting. I'm super happy with this and hope to use the techniques here on the rest of the game going forward, it may not always come out quite as good as this, but with time I hope it will.
On a different note, want to thank you guys for helping get the word out there for the last couple months. It's great seeing so many people enjoying the game and helping to support it.
Again, thank you guys!
