Yo! Apologies I'm a bit late here, quick one today though. Kana is our title lady this week, with some new accessories.
Minor script work update. Things mostly solid, but I'm looking at one specific scene and trying to decide if it needs to get cut, it really just depends on how many renders/animations it's going to take up. But considering the star of the scene my proofreader might actually hit me round the head and neck if I remove it. Truly a struggle.
Animation prelim took more time than expected so I kept plugging away at renders while I did that. We're sitting at a cool 1250 renders knocked out. Finished up the final bit of prelim work today though so I'll be switching my focus.
Hoping the first group of animations go well. They'll probably be the hardest batch to tackle which is why I want to hit them first. Wish me luck.
Anywho, back to chipping away. I appreciate the support and I hope you have a lovely December!
Sláinte!

I did not skip everything. I skipped a good amount of unending relationship-establishing dialogue, after a short gleaning that this is what is happening, which is what I do when I get bored if the plot is not moving. From what I can tell it is all just character exposition, relationship development and a few flashbacks but no overarching plot, no antagonist, no problem to be solved. When skipping I wait for changes in scenary and characters but that just does not happen. The overview in the OP asks a couple of questions at the end. So far I see none of them being relevant. I suppose that phone call at the end and the relating conversation with Els just made them relevant but even that is kind of whatever because MC was not shown to have any issues whatsover, it is only told so I do not care. Instead he humps everything that moves without any repercussions thus far. I can't even lose the fight in part 6 when I try to while having neglected training whenever I could. If this game was supposed to be slice of life I would not say anything but apparently it strives to be more or maybe I am just not vibing with the story or maybe it is merely incredibly slow and picks up in part 7.

So I will ask again: Is this all there is so far? Establishment of a little harem and maybe two hints of actual problems?

This game deals a lot with grief and PTSD and the cause and effect of it on the MC and other people around him. Relationship-establishing dialogues are a big part of it. I guess it's not everyone's cup of tea, it is certainly mine due to being an active reserve soldier in the IDF now, I got plenty of grief and PTSD of my own and I can relate to lots of the games topics.

Two small moments for your viewing pleasure this week. One is one of the lewdest, filthiest things I've ever seen. And one is just a regular amount of lewd. You can decide which is which.

Thanks as always for the support and I hope you have a lovely upcoming week.

Hugging? Hugging??? I must admit, sometimes the depravity on this site shocks even me. Seriously, what are the depths of debauchery we will descend to next? Are wholesome handholding and head pats going to be shown in this story? Such unspeakable acts surely cannot be allowed.

Love the writing and story so far, minus some of the Army tidbits. One passing line was like "Yeah, I met Alistair while I was in Regiment. Gelled together when I ended up getting bumped into 5th SF Group." Homie, Rangers and SF have two entirely different mission sets. Our boy would have to pass an entirely different selection process to be a Green Beret. It's not something you just get "bumped into." Two different SOF units with different skill sets. SF has a lot more schooling.

Not sure if I misread something or the author just didn't bother adding that he went through the SFAS pipeline, but just a heads up.

No title screen this week, being very brief.
Script is in the same place, no update here.
Did a little scene of renders because it was quick enough. So the finished number on those jumped up to 1317 finished renders.
As I previously mentioned the next few weeks are pretty much entirely animation focused. This past week I've managed to get the base blocking out on the entire first scene/batch whatever the heck I'm calling it. That comes out to 13 animations. Now I just need to work on getting them tightened and refined, add details ect. Once this batch is mostly well in hand I'll be switching back to still renders for a bit. I'll be switching off between them at good stopping points throughout the rest of the update cycle, see if I see an improvement in speed and efficiency.
On the note of animations I'll be having my last Blue Belt stream of the year Sunday the 10th, AKA tomorrow at 12pm Pacific/ 3pm Eastern I'll be working on the previously mentioned refinements so you can catch a little glimpse of what I mean. Fair warning because of the nature of the animation, and who and what it contains this stream will have super spoilers. So be absolutely sure you're down with that sickness.
That's it for tonight. I hope you all have a lovely weekend. Thank you for the support.
Sláinte!

I can confirm that "scrappy" saves work with the "koga3" mod.

ofc they do.

 

[ThorinKing]

ofc they do.

It wasn't a question, and not all saves using one mod work with saves using other mods - just confirming for the guy that they do work, since that would be a natural question.

Redheads with flamethrowers...(dated one and can confirm this is standard issue equipment). Guess they can do smores for dessert after I have my appetizer of Ines and a meal of Kana - I'll make sure she has plenty of stuffing.
