We used to only work with a maximum of four characters, but we're now rendering up to 20 characters, which is proving to be quite challenging. It's like putting together a puzzle, as we have to piece together the visuals bit by bit.

To give you an idea of the difference in rendering times, our previous heaviest scene took 17 minutes and 34 seconds to render a single frame. The current nightclub scene takes 52 minutes and 1 second to render a single frame.
Gee, I don't know, maybe reduce the amount of characters?

They could just photoshop the background with static "characters" while the main one (Lauren) is rendered in a normal way.
But that's just my opinion.
Anyway, see ya in 6 months when it gets rendered.

Devlog #23.
Hello there! Welcome to new devlog. I hope everything is going well for you.
We've encountered some difficulties this week. Our GPUs are inadequate, which is causing problems with rendering. Specifically, our night club and beach scenes are quite crowded and difficult to render. However, we are exploring alternative solutions to address this issue. We used to only work with a maximum of four characters, but we're now rendering up to 20 characters, which is proving to be quite challenging. It's like putting together a puzzle, as we have to piece together the visuals bit by bit.

To give you an idea of the difference in rendering times, our previous heaviest scene took 17 minutes and 34 seconds to render a single frame. The current nightclub scene takes 52 minutes and 1 second to render a single frame.

We've completed the nightclub scenes, but we don't want to spoil anything about the other scenes just yet. We'll share more details in our next developer log. We have limited time, so we need to focus on our work and get things done.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on our Discord channel. We'd be happy to answer them.

That's about it for now. We'll be sharing new preview throughout the week, so stay tuned!
What GB size is your current graphic card?

it sounds to me like they are doing cpu based rendering, not a gpu based system.
Even with millions upon millions of polligons, lighting etc. a gpu based system would render it out in a fraction of the time a cpu based render system will, assuminng youre using somewhat uptodate card.
Im not sure what 3d tool(s) they are using. but maybe they should check out octane render.
as an example a 15min renderinng using the cpu takes 15min. using octane render it takes 1sec.

Does anyone have a PATCH for 0.7.2 or is it just generic?
And what about WT mod for 0.7.2? Any news on that?

wow thats odd... i mean... what method they are using to render, and what antique hardware to do so? This is not normal, not at all. Strange.

It only unlocks 2 because Episode 3 isn't out yet have a look and you should notice the coming soon in the bottom corner of it in the gallery screen.

1500+ Images.
28 animation
50 new sound effect

Several bugs fix.
That's not really a small update.

Release Date: 2023-02-06
in 6 days it will be 2 months. anyway i didnt mean to disrespect or being rude. its that this two part are been splitted but it was originally meant to be a ONE big update with december 2022 as release date. if you see the previous posts (some pages ago) everything is well explained. it makes me wonder a lot about the real state of that update since day one, if it takes as long as a normal update for a second part wich had to drop as one whole update in december 2022 and it never did. anyway, lets just wait. :)
