I'm not a Patreon so I don't really have any right to speak. However, I can only imagine how frustrating the wait must be for ICSTOR's Patreons. I mean, the last update was around, what, 260 days ago? That's a ridiculous amount of time to work on an update when you have people backing you up.

I'm actually impressed he has so many GPUs. I admire the work that he has already done. I myself have no idea how to even begin creating those scenes and renders (would love to learn it). I'll just play the update whenever it comes out, as I really have no right to complain. But I just feel bad for his Patreons. ICSTOR is one of the bigger names on the website too, so the expectations are high.

I'm dreading the day the update actually is done and the couple of hours between being made available and uploaded here there will be 1000 comments on this thread all wondering where it is.
I almost hope that there is some secret agreement to hold off uploading it here for 24 - 48 hours, just to see the begging / demanding shitstorm...

Bonus points for claiming that the release statement is a lie to keep stringing along patrons for another month...
Of course it's a lie. If it really had been released, it would be here!!

:devilish: :devilish: :devilish: :whistle:

That would be hilarious... but also not entirely impossible. There have been a few times where a dev has asked his patrons not to share to f95 and other sites for at least a couple of days, and the patrons actually do. Timestamps was a recent example IIRC and so was Long Live The Princess, amongst others.

Highly doubt we'll have a situation like that. If by some chance it looks like we might, then I'll put that to an end myself.

It's been a long wait for this episode. People are getting impatient and very anxious to finally get a new update for one of the best games on this site, and I'm not gonna have people here potentially gloating that they have the episode while others don't, or anyone getting enjoyment off of other people getting upset. I would also feel bad for the staff and moderators here who'd have to deal with that shit.

This is gonna be the biggest, and in my opinion the best update this game will ever have, and everyone deserves to play it ASAP after this LONG wait. There will be no significant delay on this episode releasing, and I can promise you that right now.

Now if everyone could just chill the fuck out in here, and patiently wait for this shit to release. We got Being A DIK releasing next Friday! Along with some other great stuff coming out this month. Hopefully ICSTOR can get this out in August also, but if it's got a small delay it's no big deal. There's gonna be a lot of good stuff to play!

For the record, I've never asked my patrons anything like that, as far as I can recall. You're probably getting me mixed up with someone else. :)

Probably! I just remember one of your releases where people here were demanding the new version but none of the patrons 'donated' it for a couple of days.

Just offer someone $100 a week to do it. Hell, I would do it. ICSTOR, hit me up, I need the money.

Model set up can take 16 hours for the first time. If you are trying to customize your models. After that, you never need to touch it again. Using an animation system to do minor adjustments for 1 frame for every frame in a single frame doesn't take that long. I've been using daz for awhile now and know where to cut corners and know where to put time in. the dick pushing into the back of a characters brain doesn't matter since you never see it. the mouth and lips are 100% of the focus at that point. You start with that bought asset, and it does maybe 90% of the work. Angling a camera to hide collision issues becomes a super useful trick. It doesn't matter if your hand clips through the character if you can use a convincing angle. Using the altered focal points is also a great trick to use. If you set the focal point down, it will blur collision with objects. As for lighting, a simple method to use is reduce the Lumens amount and alter the colour to a light orange/yellow. reduce the intensity, looks like a dusk or dawn setting. Most of the scenes he uses are pre-bought assets that come with built in lights that are simple to alter. I don't support him, or anyone because I am poorer than poor, but, if I was going to, I would need more than the same 50 assets I have seen in every trending game in the trending section. I would much rather give to someone making something like Summertime saga just because the guys draws everything. And even then, I would like to know the details of how he does it so I can voice an opinion how he can do it better since I would be Paying him.

On an aside, try disabling 2 gpus and offloading your rendering to GPU cuda rendering. I don't remember 100%, but the thing I heard was that if you have multiple GPU, it will only use the lowest one settings to do anything. I am probably off on that, but worth a try.

Oh stop that ''I don't have right to speak because im not patreon'' stuff.. You can say whatever the shit you want.

We are on the PIRATE forum, those that tell us that we don't have right to comment on specific parts of the game because we're not paying are fooling themselves and are just the biggest hypocrites. :rolleyes:

It will be full of nonsense comments like the one i quoted below. :p
This game sure is hot garbage in the current form. Not surprised Patron money is running out.

I'm glad we have to wait some additional development time for an undercooked story about the irrelevant neighbour girls, people barely give a shit about. This truly is the content all of us have been craving for all these months.
