You need to pose your DAZ models, i.e. do they sit? Do they stand? What are they doing? Are they sad, happy, smiling or crying? It's basically the same a photographer would ask his model to do.... to do various poses and the photographer gives his model directions. Only here you directly manipulate the digital models.Just curious: what the "posing" stands for?
Thanks. I figured out creating a game like this requires plenty of movie director skills. It is very important and also very tricky to give a steamy and exciting visual presentation of a sexual intercourse, but even more tricky and important is to give a realistic build up of a sexual tension. It is what separates good games from lousy ones - an eye for details.You need to pose your DAZ models, i.e. do they sit? Do they stand? What are they doing? Are they sad, happy, smiling or crying?

I am by no means a DAZ expert... but yes, you need quite a few skills. You need to know about composition, you need to know about lighting. You need to know about how and where to set up your virtual cameras, focal length, aperture etc. In many ways a VN is like writing and directing a tv show, only that you make still photos with some animations.I figured out creating a game like this requires plenty of movie director skills.
Lighting is at least 50% of the equation. The best pose in the world will look horrible if the lighting is bad.Not sure why I never considered how important lightning in scenes are.
The hardest thing that I have had to deal with while making renders is the lighting and it took me a long time to get this rightI am by no means a DAZ expert... but yes, you need quite a few skills.

But you need to know how to pose characters, how they interact, what they should do in any given render like a director. And on top of that you need to know the quirks of DAZ or things like Blender. You need to rig internal skeletons, conform clothing (so it fits the body), apply textures, know a thing or two about shaders, make sure the materials look right (skin often tends to look like plastic in some games), then there's physics when you do animations etc. This is no easy task! And you can usually tell when someone knows a few things about composition and how to set up (virtual) cameras.
The renders in No More Money are really good. But a lot of work is put into that.
Well, it depends on your definition of cheating... he definitely cheated on Emma emotionally. If my girlfriend kissed another man... I would certainly consider that cheating! Likewise if I kissed a different woman... I would consider it cheating. Fidelity is not just about not having sex... it involves emotions, feelings and in a good and happy relationship there should be no need to kiss different people. If the relationship is built on love, not open and the significant other (or you) is absolutely not ok with sharing. And Emma is in love, not ok with sharing and thus it's absolutely cheating.Dev needs to tone down some of the writing early game, MC "cheating" by getting a kiss on the lips is is exaggerated out of proportions with Tris and also by the girls (Lauren, Lisa) if you tell them that you have a girl.
MC said a kiss on the check and the girls decided that it was necessary to initiate a kiss on the lips without knowing MCs status. Its "cheating" by the law, but I dont like how the sister portray the MC as a fucking asshole when it was forced..Well, it depends on your definition of cheating... he definitely cheated on Emma emotionally.

Also, most girls wouldn't like it that a man in a relationship is pursuing them. Some will, sure. But most wouldn't be ok with that. So Lisa's/Lauren's reaction makes sense. Of course you can argue that a VN should not be real and just be silly fun... but you get plenty of games like that already, I enjoy and prefer the somewhat more realistic approach here and the fact the MC is not a sleazeball like in so many other games. I hope that won't change in upcoming episodes!
Sure, he's not a complete asshole because of that... but yet, it's cheating. But he's no casanova or sleazeball yet just because of that. I feel the sister was maybe just disappointed in him, maybe she wants her future boyfriend to be a man of principle who won't get tempted by other girls when she's his one true love (eventually)but I dont like how the sister portray the MC as a fucking asshole when it was forced.
Another great realistic thing as well is MC is caught cheating by Emma. If you don't tell them the truth hell you have all three girls until Emma sees you with one of them.Well, it depends on your definition of cheating... he definitely cheated on Emma emotionally.

The game Audio (Music), from what I saw, all the files have the music name and artist.The music in this VN is fucking fire, should be a way to see what song is playing.
