VN Ren'Py Abandoned Lexi [v0.052] [Chatterbox]

[gamersglory]

you hopes are well placed friend, like chatt said himself he is close with the project to guide it back to fans hands
im sure "soon" some new info will pop up

I always hate when people say it's coming soon. As soon to me is never a valid answer. So I will say more to where we are at currently without giving things away like story and such. As most of you know by now the situation with monster set us back quite a bit as we have had to reconstruct some of the assets used in Lexi from the G drive deletion. That, for the most part, is done. The other big thing has been getting our new writer prepped with the outline of the story Chatterbox had in mind and him and the new writer and myself sharing ideas and adding more to the story. I can not express how having chatter more involved has been this time as his passion for Lexi has rubbed off on us even more so now and is an invaluable resource to us both. currently, we are in the process of getting a good rough idea of how updates will go and a more definitive outline of the story ahead. So that's where we are at right now.

So, just catching up to events here and sorry to hear of the odd setbacks, but encouraged to hear of the recreation of assets, etc.

Given the current status are you looking for volunteer help at all to maybe quickstart any efforts? Not in a monetary way, just to help with various aspects from scene or prop development, rendering, proofreading, etc.

Yes I have most of the assets recreated, luckily I was able to find some older versions of some of the assets on my mega account, including Lexi. So she is exactly as you remember her. Kaylee and Sarah were easy after I re-identified the materials I used. The worst that we're gonna have as far as recreation is that Kiko will have a different hair.

Now working on getting the new poser/writer setup with all the files he will need. I also have to recreate and maybe improve some lighting in the environments and teach the new guy how to light scenes. He's eager to learn and I should even be able to teach him some of what I've learned since the last update of Lexi, so you might even see a quality improvement.

Thank you guys for being patient, and I apologize for the drama and delays of the last few months. If I was able to continue more intense work on Lexi myself, this never would have happened, so regardless of what anyone did, it's still falls on my shoulders.

Don't be too hard on yourself buddy. Look at it the other way, without you there wouldn't have been a 'Lexi' to begin with.
I honestly haven't kept up with all the happenings in this thread, so I'll just settle with saying that I hope you're doing better from whatever caused you to have to step back in the first place.
Stay afloat.

i totally agree!

Chatterbox you can't blame yourself for stuff no one could forseen. i know as a creator you can feel responsible at some degree but im here to tell you that's a good thing, it really is because it shows that you are a good person. "he" was a dick and whatever you think or feel just don't, it's done and i for damn sure not blaming you. im certain some good things will come from that. i got you buddy as one of your biggest fans and im sure everyone else think the same.

 

[Chatterbox]

Sorry I'm a little late in announcing this, and I'm sure most of you have figured it out. Endrju will be taking over as the new writer and will be posing the scenes. GamersGlory will be an editor as well as doing most of the rendering. I will consulting for the story, assets, clothing, etc, as well as consulting for the technical side of things.

I also wanted to thank Envixer for his work on Lexi in the last 4 months. Unfortunately with the turn of events, I ended up going a different direction. I wish I could make up to you somehow, so if you ever need anything, let me know.

 

[gamersglory]

Yes, Endrju will be handling the Writing and posing side chatter giving him a course in how to use Daz the Chatterbox way. So the Renders will have the same or better quality that you are use to seeing in Lexi.

 

[Idkanythingsmarter]

Endrju Congrats bro! I'm really glad that it is you who are taking over a writing part. Now, don't mess it up, lol.

 

[Walg]

Endrju Congrats on taking over the writing role! Remember, it's slightly different to your signature work ok? There's words and all that

 

[Idkanythingsmarter]

gamersglory Hahha, I saw your reaction on my post man, lol. It was just a joke, hehhe. Endrju is definitely right guy for a job, don't doubt it. Besides, he knows that it was just a joke.

Don't worry you'll do good...otherwhise the lynch mob will come after you with their pitchforks.

i will try to keep that in mind

 

[Carpe Stultus]

i will try to keep that in mind

You are here since 2017...you should know that i'm right.

 

[Endrju]

yeah i kind of have a rough idea

 

[Ragnar]

Can you tell us what are your plans storywise? Like changing some character personality and the such.

hi its a very good question,
short answer is no. we are staying true to the original plans that Chatterbox had for those characters, we work very close to find the best way for how to flesh them all out in satisfying way. we pushing hard for story driven experience so you wont be disappointed. there is much that will be added and we just cant wait to share it with you all

I'm looking forward to what you have to share because after that start i was kinda sad that this game almost died. If you guys are done with Lexi there are some other games that could use someone to finish them.

there is no reason anymore for you being sad, we are working very hard on this project to bring you all best possible experience, and the story line is just mind blowing (eh me and my mouth)

If you guys are done with Lexi there are some other games that could use someone to finish them.

yes there is a lot of projects that deserve the same treatment Lexi is getting but remember never to stop hoping..
i never did
