Best girls look amazing! you sir are an artist!
VERY nice, thanks again dude for your hard work in creating extra pics for us all.
Thanks.

These are always amazing!! I’m sure this has been asked before, but on average how long does each render take you to complete?
I cannot remember if it has been asked nor answered, my memory is not what it used to be anymore.
The time can vary from hours to days.

Most renders here are variants or copies of an original render, so they take in the up to a few hours range.

Said times could be reduced using the more common wet/plastic styles that dominate rendering in Daz (and Blender) or just accepting 3D outfit tend to look odd a lot, but it would not really be classic style anymore if that was done.

Some public previews of the new Lacey (0.3.6 preview)

Hello everybody,

as a patron, you have already seen a couple of preview images of the new Lacey.
Today I'm going to share some more images with all of you.
  • First image is from her beach walk scene, wearing her skimpy bikini.
  • Second image shows Lacey walking into the gym after changing into her workout outfit
  • Third image is Lacey complaining about too much weight when she's about to do pecs training
  • Image number four shows her starting with her yoga exercises
  • In the last one, she's leaving the gym shower
I hope you enjoy the previews,
Darkhound

Here is a belated complement for the updates to the new Lacey. I'm sure I will be inviting her to the island once the new updates are ready. But I will be asking her to pick up a case of Gelaxis beer on the way. I can't seem to get any here.

Funny, I've talked Jennifer and Yumiko into stocking Michelob Light Ultra, Budweiser Select 55 and some German dark beer. It must be who you know!!! (I kid, I kid, those options aren't available but I wish they were!)

I'm quite happy with the Asahi Super Dry Black, Yumiko's been stocking. Although the Bud would come in handy to clean the shower.

SCIENCE!!!

To quote Richard Dawkins: "It works, bitches." :geek:

Also, thank you for the breakdown.

Cheers,

More Holiday Island fun statistics

The regulars on this thread know that I like to post some Holiday Island fun statistics from time to time. Due to recent questions for the date of the next release, now is the perfect time for a new one regarding time between Holiday Island releases and Darkhound's work velocity.

This is the number of days between main Holiday Island releases:

View attachment 1860077

It is immediately apparent that the time between releases has increased and there have been (unfounded) complaints about that fact.
However, simply measuring the time between releases completely neglects to consider the amount of new and updated content that Darkhound created for each release. Though, this is partially reflected by the version numbers that have jumped from e.g. 0.2.3.0 to 0.3.0.0 and 0.3.1.0 to 0.3.5.0.

So if you plot the amount of new content against time between releases, you get a more complete picture:

View attachment 1860109

It is apparent that the data points more or less follow a straight line. This means that Darkound's work velocity is more or less constant! On average, per day, Darkhound completes four (!) new or updated features (see equation of the regression line).

Takeaways:
  • Darkhound's work velocity has not slowed down
  • The time between releases reflects the amount of new and updated content
  • If Darkhound reduced the time between releases to zero, there'd magically be 267 new or updated features ;)
  • We will get there when Darkhound gets there

1655984599636.png idk why or how, but I've updated the game from 0.3.1.1 to 0.3.5.1 (copied the "saves" folder into the new game) and this happened immediately after I tried to go to the restaurant. Apart from that just as I entered the game it was fine, though right before going to the restaurant I did edit my MC's values so all of them are maxed out.

Is editing the values caused this or is it something else?

EDIT: Nvm lads, problemo solved, loaded a slightly older save file and it now works (so far)
