Hi all,
A few days ago patrons suddenly started arriving at my Patreon page and jerricho13 kindly directed me to this Hive of Scum and Villainy™. Just read through the thread and thank you all for the compliments, feedback and for finding that nasty coffeeshop bug!
As for the Sims 4 quality of the renders, I'm painfully aware of that. The problem is that I currently render everything on a Macbook Pro and don't have access to an Iray compatible NVIDIA card, which is how people achieve those gorgeous renders in other VNs. I did create Iray versions of my characters and they look quite nice after half a day of rendering on the CPU, but that makes for a very slow, impractical workflow. I've got my eye on a setup with an external GPU and an NVIDA Titan, but they're awfully expensive. Any money I currently make from Patreon will go straight into investing in the eGPU setup. I guess you've heard that one before ("Give me lots of money for this terribly expensive gaming PC and I will promise you the world, the galaxy and beyond!"), but I aim to be an exception to that rule.
That said, I'm still stuck with rendering on my CPU in 3Delight, but I think I've gotten a bit better at lighting scenes which hopefully makes them look less like screenshots from Maxis game...
Again, thanks for the feedback!

Argh! I'll push a new release and instructions for people who don't want to replay from that particular point (basically the instructions posted by WBWB). That said you indeed don't miss out on much content, except for some flavor text, and you'll have another opportunity to engage in a relationship with Liza in a near future release.There seems to be a bug with the liza relationship. There are some text blocks(very minor you miss nothing) that are only displayed if you started a relationship with her. But there is no code that ever sets l_relationship true.
