Seems likely the testers will get to work this month.
- How to estimate current releases
Boobs * Sidetracking / Old man + No Cthulhu

- How to estimate releases after Cthulhu arrives
Big Boobs / Invigorated Man + They are real

(The invigorated man is still old but he won't feel it while under the influence of real big boobs :p )

You can maybe say it when there are no more "still working on it" lines. It's far from that.
Fair point, but the truth of it is we just don't know.

It is conceivable that, given today is November 2nd, the beta of v0.4.0 *might be* turned over to the testers by the end of November. OTOH, *if* there is a bit of content that isn't on the content list yet that Darkhound is just starting on now (not likely to be much if any at this point), or if it takes longer than expected to complete the "still working on it" bits, or if life gets in the way of Darkhound working his HI magic, then the beta wouldn't go to the testers until sometime after that.

Zapallbugs may be right, or Norb may be right (or they both might be mostly right), or maybe I don't know what the hell I'm talking about . . .

I got this reply from Darkhound on Patreon:

' The scope of the release 0.4.0 is more or less set and done. I don't want to drag the release out forever. It's even possible that I will postpone some of Brenda's not finished scene upgrades and put them in a 0.4.1.'

To me that indicates he has some date in mind by when he wants to get 0.4.0 finished. He is even prepared to skip stuff that is not done by then.

You just reinforced my main point; namely, that I don't know what the hell I'm talking about (and also reinforced one of my supporting points, that late(ish) November beta testing is conceivable, and perhaps probable, based on your inside information).

Dun't know i mean the game is eating 6gb of ram an then it freeze, and the lag in transitions it remains almost the same
win 10 XD
Looks like you are running out of memory. I had the same issue (although with a 4GB machine). Put in some more memory and problem gone. So easy solution, put in more memory. If that is not possible look to save memory somewhere else, eg close some other apps that use a lot.

Don't think so i've 12G ram i'm running games like DMC 5, naruto Storm 4, DB Fighterz, i mean even DMC 5 does no consume 6gb of ram XD even though i play with HSR farming in auto :'v so i pretty sure that my ram is no the problem, the same happened 1 year ago, I hoped that by now it would be better optimized.

The fact you have 12GB does not mean that HI gets it. Somebody else may be eating it. I can run HI fine on 8GB (W10 22H2) machine when I kick out the worst memory hog (MS Teams).

Mine got better after getting FC3, my brother hate it cause he always wanted to play and i started to take a look into assembler (but he loved it when i removed the copy protection of the games).

Let's get it trending:
