Delizia looks out for me. Seems she has some agreement with Miriam, Mercedes, Ivy, Amy and the other girls with above average strength, that they threaten anyone considering 'facepalming' my posts. Don't know if it's true, but that's what she told me.
I facepalmed this partially out of fun (I'm a little drunk), and I want to see if Amy comes after me. I might enjoy that!

Seeing we are a bit off topic anyway, this weekend's fan art will replaced with something else.
Holiday Island inspired Hybrids.

Faye posing at the pool (0.2.2 preview)

Hello everyone,

I just can't say "No" to her when she's looking at me like she does in the preview.
Not that this is a bad thing.

I've redone Faye's pool pose scene which got one of the worst animations of the game. Since I was at it, I re-rendered the whole scene as well. All images have been upgraded to double resolution webp format, there are some additional images and the dialogue has been improved as well.

In addition, The scene can be seen with Faye wearing her bikini or her sling swimsuit.
Image hue and brightness is adjusted based on the time of day in the whole scene now as well. I've attached some example images. The normal pool times are the second to fifth image.

Take care and enjoy the preview,

#fanart

So, Alice, its the last part of your job interview to the Holiday Island.

That's why we took you for a car ride instead of office. You have excellent recommendation from the Escort Agency, we know your sister, we have seen your naked body right here, it looks also excellent, now we only have to make sure that you will be able to handle the lottery winner. So, I think I dont have to explain you, what to do now.

Okay, I misunderstood your question. What you're asking is, how to find Yvette in the sauna on a regular basis. I'm guessing (hoping) you have completed all the hacking for Yvette's sub-dermal. Now, anchor her as one of the girls in the upper left of your screen. If the hacking is complete you will be able to see her location. Go somewhere, like the beach, where you won't be interrupted and advance the time by 30 minutes and check Yvette's location. Repeat until it says 'Sauna' and then go there and you will find Yvette.

Sometimes she doesnt come to the sauna all afternoon. Her stats are high... maybe she better feels to cool down at the pool :D

Yes BNTRY, tHANKS THIS cl;arifies precisely what i need to do to get her into the sauna, to make things clear, Yes i hack and change her sub-dermal and place her in the corner, so i precisely know when she is in the spa region for the sauna, ans i have done this repeatly biut missed your clarified steps. I now lnow to repeat this and wait until it says sauna and not when she is in the spa region for the saunam becuase i have tried to get her to see if she is in the sauna but nothing happens, You have clearly answered my querym so thank you bantry for clearling this up

The problem with location activities is that they are horrible expensive investments due to having 3 (or more) outfits.
The normal location activity has 3 renders and each is repeated pr. outfit.

15 Normal girls x 3 outfits x 3 renders = 135 renders needed for the most basic location activity.
The "clones" are on average cheaper to (re)make, so lets say 90-100 full renders effective cost in time and effort.

Which is around 3-4 weeks of work.

And of course there is the nice touch that it has a future cost too.
Add a new girl? Create all location renders for her and then repeat all for each outfit she has.
Add a new outfit? Repeat all location renders for that outfit.

It is a primary or the key factor why the last normal girl added was Natasha in 2018 and why outfits for the day hours have been largely static over the years. The cost is simply insane.

It is no secret that it is the only part of HI's design which would be changed or outright scrapped if time travel was a thing.

But since we are short on time travel and have a huge to-do list already, it'd have to be a very good suggestion for what to do at the Spa.

There is one flaw in this logic. It assumes that whatever happens at the Spa would have to happen for all girls. Maybe in the distant future if Dark's appetite lasts that long. For now just one or two girls would do. It's like that in the gym too. Not all girls have the weight lifting or the pull-ups or the yoga.
