Hi guys , I have been thinking for an scenerio for a long time but, I have no idea about how to do to be honest ,I'm going to use Ren'py but firstly, I need to create character and place image for my game . I noticed that the characters and places in many popular games are similar to each other (for example, a wife and mother , bad bobby saga , Echoes Of Lust ... ). I guess developers use same program. I need to know which programme they use. so I need to learn create image. by the way ı dont know how ı create animations. With which program do I add animation to the pictures I create? Can ı create naked character ( create dick , boobs) with CC3 ? İn addition I would appreciate it if you could tell me the details I need to know.

The Devs you are mentioning probably use DAZ3D. 90% of 3d game developers basically use DAZ Studio for rendering cause it is user friendly. You need to have a good pc buy the assets you need for project from Daz Store or you can find a lot here also and set it up then render. Certainly it's not as easy as it sounds. You have to practice to be good at lightning, posing etc. Many Devs also use Illusions games like Honey Select, Honey Select 2 and Koikatu for rendering. If your GPU isn't powerful enough to handle DAZ then you can check this or if you like the art better. All of the software mentioned above have tutorial videos on youtube and lastly there is also Blender for highly skilled people who can create assets themselves cause it is mainly a modeling, texturing, sculpting, animating, rendering plus a game engine so it's a powerful software. I've also heard about poser but never used it.
For animation you need to learn the rendering first. It's something like you need to set up the first scene and last scene and hit play and it will create an animation for whatever frames you've selected. For complex animations you need to set more frames(I don't know much about it). But for Illusion games the animations are already saved with limitation so in that limited lists you will run the animation and render it as a video. There are also ways to do custom animation but yeah I didn't look much into it.

All the softwares are free to download. Just search the name on google and you will see the official websites. Illusion games are already here so you can download it easily.

I might add that if you use old assets and keep your renders to a minimum (1-2 characters, simple lights, possibly using old models like Gen2, use simple backgrounds/scenes, avoid mirrored surfaces, etc) you don't need a powerful PC, just a lot of patience.
I've done most of my characters on a single processor with 1,5Gb RAM and onboard graphics card and rendering them took 10 minutes each. Of course with a serious computer now it would be like a handful of seconds (it's 30 sec/1 minute with my new characters using better lighting and more refined textures).

Daz Studio is free, it comes with some free assets to start learning and it can rely on lots of support, tutorials, articles and forums. Having a decent understanding of photography helps a lot, too.

Just start small: learn how to modify characters (don't use stock models out of the box, but make them unique: players really appreciate this), lean how textures/materials work, learn ligthing (start researching "3 points lighting", learn a basic of exposure (in Daz it's under a tab called "tone mapping"), learn how lenses work (when you are using a focal lenght of less than 100mm, keep the fuck away form a model face!) and things will slowly start falling in place.

Daz Studio's bigger brother is Poser, that's not free, and the real 3D pros use Blender or even more professional programs, but that's way beyond the scope of making simple adult VNs.

Options for graphics that most devs here use:
- Daz3D : This program can produce the most realistic looking characters.
- Pros: Lots of characters/clothing/environments to choose from. Amazing visual fidelity.
- Cons: Daz is free but content is extremely expensive. Very laggy when building large scenes. Rendering takes a long time even with good graphics cards. Hard to modify and add custom content to. You could easily spend hundreds and hardly have enough for a game if u don't pirate.

- Illusion Games (AI Shoujo, etc.): This program is more anime-style.
- Pros: Lots of mods and character/scene options, although mostly confined to a japanese-style environment. Runs in real-time so you can just screenshot your game in studio mode to instantly produce a render. Easy to mod.
- Cons: Not as detailed as Daz. Cannot produce realistic graphics.

Theoretically, it's also possible to download models and make a game using Source Film Maker (if you ever saw SFM porn u know what that looks like). Although that program's probably harder to use than the above options but I never tried it myself.
