Hi everyone,
I apologize to my Patrons as some of this will be old news, but I like to update the public every so often and it feels like a good time given what happened and where I am right now.
For those that don't know, I recently suffered a massive SSD crash which caused me to lose my Daz Library (like the assets for characters, poses, environments, etc.) and about 80-90 renders and some other work as well. So I have spent about the last two weeks scrambling hard to kind of get back to a normal state so to speak.
I am happy to report that I have almost rebuilt my entire library and now have about 75 characters back saved and ready to use. I lost about 300+ GB of Daz data and am now rebuilt to over 210GB back. (I probably don't need every single thing I lost as some scene locations I will not use again.) It's been tedious -- just imagine redownloading tons of simple things like expressions, sitting poses, rooms, character models -- so it took a while of painstaking tracking and relocating files, etc. I had to do this because let's say I just wanted Olivia to smile a certain way, and I realized I didn't even have the right sliders to work quickly to move her mouth a certain way, etc.
But as I said I am happy to report that I'm kind of back in the swing of "normal" work as of basically today.
I am now at 1,201 renders which I will definitely take given I was worried two weeks ago that I was in deep trouble with the update.
I am basically 90 percent done with the dom path and have veered strong to the sub path. Keep in mind for this path, there will be more variance than the prior episode meaning different scenes based more on decisions by Kane and/or females involved versus pure rank. So I am trying to tweak the choices sometimes to allow people to avoid the absolute worst stuff if it's not their cup of tea.
I can't show like 95 percent of my images for public Patreon previews, so just trying to throw together some "safe" shots here. I'll try and throw some adult previews on Discord if I can for a few stronger previews.
I am also happy to say that the big game I was working on with a very strict NDA has released recently. I am pretty much all done there, and it's a big relief. I am still waiting for some kind of formal allowance to speak on certain things, but it was a very enjoyable process. I would not have had that chance without KG, so that alone was a really nice benefit from all this hard work.
As always, I promise to keep working hard and doing my best. I may have little setbacks like my dumb computer (I have replaced the drive on my RTX 3090 system but now also getting a second new RTX 4090 PC next month) but I'll always try to give players a fun experience.
For Patrons, I will be trying to give a detailed roadmap in 1-2 weeks for everything. It depends where I get by the end of this month, but I am trying to make sure the update is both dense but not super long like Episode 7, which was 4,400 renders I think. I am hope for less than half of that this time around. I'm not super far away even though it feels a bit far in my mind.
Ok, I desperately need to rest so I will do that now, thank you all for the support and I appreciate everything!
), but at least I'm hoping for an ending where we can fight tyranny with the rebellion, even if it is doomed to fail, and us to be killed, hopefully fighting
