It's been quite some time since I've been this frustrated. Those last renders (With 4-5 characters) are such a pain. It took me 12 hours for 1 picture, which is ridiculous. I knew I had to render that image a few times with the different characters, which is fine, but creating the scene was almost impossible. Every time I changed a pose on a character, I had to wait 2 minutes before the changes took effect. So every time I moved a finger on a character, I had to wait for another 2 minutes. My PC gets so slow and "laggy", just no...

What frustrates me even more, is that it's such an important scene and I won't be able to have the quality I want. I'll have to make some cuts again but this time, I don't have a choice.

I'll put it on my redo list for later (That list is getting way too big though.)

So if some of those images have some weird poses, this is why.

Maybe some better news:

ETA: first week of May.

Anyone knows what render-setup and/or hardware she is using? This is, as she wrote, "ridiculous"...

Hmm, the ladies are asking me:
"do they have anyone around whom can install a different GPU for them?"
(Note, Passing the message along as i have been asked to).

Hmm, think we all can help;
When I reach 1000 patreons I will buy a second computer. Solely for rendering.
I will produce a high-resolution wallpaper of a character (community poll) for free to all Patreons.
Currently at 881/1000.

Problem for me is that there are some very good games out there and it makes it difficult to support all of those I really like..
I can support a few but not all

Uff, if this is true that means a pretty outdated and bad setup. End of march there was already more than 1.000 Patreons but the number collapsed to around 800 start of April.

Ah, I thought this was automatically updated on her patreon site, does she has to do this manually?
I mean adjust the nr of patreons?

To bad she didn't buy that 2nd pc then, maybe something went wrong

At the current prices a new rig will cost around 4-5k € depending on the grafic card (assuming a RTX 3090 here). I guess it would need at least one ful month of 1k Patreons to have this amount ready.

For the updates at Patreon I think that's some kind of automatic update some developers even include the amount of money they get from that number of Patrerons.

GTX 950 was released back in 2015... How is she able to render with this 2 GB VRAM (card) and 8 GB (onboard) and still maintaining sanity? She needed an hardware upgrade YEARS AGO!

Just to note, folks.

Nyx does not use this site anymore, best place to tell her about her hardware will probs be discord.

Ah yes, I'm aware of that decision and I think it was the wrong move, but who I'm to judge on this.
I know I know it's a pirate site and there are a lot of people who don't care if they seems rude and such.
But there are also a lot of people who love games like this and are able to give proper feedback. There are other developers, moders, grafic designers who could be a great source of knowledge and even help.
If you are looking for support you have to practice self-marketing being at sites like this, reddit or itch.io, but you have to do it or least find someone who is willing to do it.

Thing is, she isn't the only dev to do it.

This past couple of years has seen quite a few devs drop this site. They still have people post updates but they refuse to deal with certain groups on here so don't bother at all.

Just started playing the recent update and I have to ask, is Val a romanceable LI? I'm on Erryn's path atm, but Val is super cute and was wondering if she's just a side character or if we can switch over to her at some point? At this point I have a Lexi save and an Erryn save, not sure if I'm gonna have to make another one now, lol. Given how complex this story is getting, it would be helpful to get an actual idea of all the different paths available in the game.

 

[ImSenjou]

Is it already certain that Layla, Lexi and the MC have the same father?
The MC's life is so fucked up that I'm already saving myself for Val, I hope the DEV doesn't invent that she's some lost cousin of the MC, I'm already on my fourth route...

Not sure yet, but possible. I don't think the game is going in that direction though.

 

[Avaron1974]

No.

As far as i'm aware there is no incest and none intended. It was just for story drama.

General theory is the MC's father is Gabi's husband.

I liked this theory! I had forgotten about Patreon rules about incest.
Thank you!

 

[Crimsonfiend76]

Dammit, I was on the Erryn path, but just can't ignore Val. I just dreading trying to date them both...if possible.
