Hi guys,
How is everybody doing?
PROGRESS STATUS
This past week I've mainly worked on animations. There were some animations that really took me time to pose, but I'm really happy with the result. Hopefully next week I'll be able to finish all the remaining animations, since I have only 2 or 3 complex animations left. Everything else is pretty basic.
Once I finish the animations, the remaining renders should not take me more than 3-5 days. So once that is done, it will be a matter of days until my machines finish render the animations.
Some of you remember that I had some problems with the machine that was rendering the animations. Since I don't have the time to set a new computer, I decided to try and fix this one. So for the time being, the second computer is working and since Tuesday, it's been rendering non-stop, however I expect it to just stop working one day, so sooner or later I will have to buy another one, but right now I'm doing my best to keep it working so that I can finish this episode as fast as possible. We'll see what happens after the relase.
ABOUT EPISODE 3
As you know, the episode 3 is split in two parts, but to avoid confusion after the release with the second part, I decided to name this part episode 3 and the next part episode 4, this way nobody gets confused when second part will be released. It will be just like a normal episode, but it will take less to develop since the text is already done and I also have a few renders made.
That being said, I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
Bests,
Jason

After reading the above, I'd guesstimate 2 weeks before initial release maybe?

A wise decision, we have already seen examples how it was done differently and some very confused people just kept complaining.

Almost 4 months since the last release, can he go back to his regular job and not do this full time cuz it doesn't seem to work for the better...:HideThePain:
Yeah, and you don't seem to understand how much more he is putting into this.

Basicly every animation has to be rendered 4 times, each with acute differences depending on the options/route you chose.

From what I have been told there are more animations in this update than in any before and the game will be more player centric, in that your choices/actions have a larger impact on the individual scenes.

Just because the time frame is the same doesn't mean that the content is. Or are you one of those people who would rather play a game with crappy content as long as it releases a new update every month?

Your comment is similar to telling the guy who invented the Reeses Penutbutter Cup to go back to doing whatever he did before because licking penutbutter off of a spoon is fine for you.

Go suck on your spoon, the rest of us will wait and enjoy our penutbutter surounded in decadent milk chocolate!

The question is, does it need to be this detailed? If instead of less time between updates with consistent content we get the same amount of higher quality content with more time between updates, at some point those updates are just too small and too rare for what they offer. That's how you end up with a single 25 minutes update a year - sure, it would look awesome and have 20 paths, and no one will care because no one is going to wait a year for it.

Time between releases, amount of content and quality of content must be balanced, and pushing too much into pure quality is just as bad as pushing into quantity. 4 months per update is already pushing it. The next step, 2 updates a year require a BDIK level of content.

If the dev keeps to the new "1 update every 4 months" schedule, that's 3 episodes a year. We won't get to the end of the season in a year and a half, and by then most people here will probably forget the game even exists.

Another option is when Charlotte undresses - I don’t really like it either, until I want Charlotte to undress, even in front of her children, but still it’s “public light”, that is, in public.
You can do that? Or do you just mean the bottoms?

Come on bro.
I know we have seen endeless dev who been bad and who have burnt trust of many patrons and fans in this AVN genre but Royal Candy is definitely not like norm.
Art is something that has always been abstract, you cant define a time to create it. You can define amount time need to render but you cant just expect posing and expression and lighting and all other stuff that comes before you preas render a set time.
Hence there will always be variation in time for every update.
What makes royal candy different is he communicates constantly, he always provides progress reports.

I ain't no white knight for him, there have been time i been angry on him but never i thought he a was being lenient.
Just saying i know why the snarking comment(cause 90% devs are milking it) but i dont think this thread deserves it.

Personally, I prefer quality over quantity, and Royal Candy does a great job with this game, I would rather wait a bit longer for the quality he puts in to it, than rush it and look like garbage, just for the sake of impatient people :)
Forgetting the game ? Nah, not a chance.
If anyone else is as in to the girls in this game as I am, they won't forget either, lol, especially Charlotte and Tris.
There are a plethora of other games to play in the meantime while waiting, or even better, learn a new skill etc, I'm learning Daz in between working on games, it passes a lot of time and you learn something too :)
