VN Ren'Py STWA: Unbroken [Book 1 Steam] [STWAdev]

[MagicMan753]

I took a quick look at gallery for last update,and am just curious, is the animations getting worse.

It is just such a mood killer, the lighting is plain and dull, the characters models look off slightly, even some of environment looks like its missing at times like where did the room go, it looks like things were removed.

I honestly wished the dev stuck to the more stiff animations, then change to this, cause when we reach the sex scenes, I can't even look forward to it, cause it just looks off and ruins the scenes.

If I remember right, they started learning to use Blender for animations instead of using Daz. Some of the texture mapping and stuff like that is definitely a learning process to import, I hear. Personally I thought they were improved, but honestly I'm pretty indifferent about sex scene animations unless they're truly spectacular (and very few AVNs do that).

Yeah, I get that. I usually don't care too much, but when the still renders look so much better and different compared to the animations its not great imo.

Like in the latest update, Els animations did look pretty solid, had problems but not bad. But I think Ines and Vi scenes look not great. Go look at the latest Vi scene, then look at the animations, hair looks atrocious on her, lighting and environment looks bad, so on.

The motion itself is smooth, but at the cost of everything else sometimes. It just looks horrifying, where, I would love a slight rework of these when he gets a better handle on it. Cause once again its just so much worse then the renders themselves that it takes me out of the scenes.

Hey folks, was testing something out with Vi here, figured might as well share it for a bit of visual stimuli. Anyway gonna try and be brief here.

My big ole batch of Amrit related fixes is nearing completion, essentially one more big batch that I'm working to get knocked out by end of weekend, assuming everything cooperates.

Testers have their cheat sheets so they should be prepped up and ready to go.

Pleased with most of my UI changes, a few more small ones to tweak and that'll all be done.

Since this will be the first official release with an ost/audio been listening to more things than I'd like. But found a nice little cadre of artists making exactly what I was looking for.

That's all the technical stuff of note at the moment. A quick personal note a family member is having surgery this afternoon (nothing major but still a fairly large surgery) so I'll be assisting them at home for the next few days until they're back on their feet. Just a heads up if you try to reach me in the next few days that I might be a bit tardy on responses.

Final note, that big in depth post about the Amrit issue went from a fairly in depth post to a much larger vaguely concerning post. It sort of took on a life of it's own as I got angrier. What was once just a talk about a very specific program went off course and turned into a whole rant about technical limitations and artistic visions. Still going to release it, but I have to clean up some of the language, and also organise it a bit better so it doesn't read like a blog some lunatic wrote on a 2005 conspiracy board.

Time for our very tedious, but needed warning that Part 8 starts with an entire new file and you need to have a save file transfer ready to import. Either the Steam editions or the current pinned editions here on the page will allow the transfer, if you don't have a transfer ready you will NOT be able to just start at Part 8.

This was my attempt at brief and clearly I'm lacking both brevity and wit, The Bard weeps.

Thank you as always for the support and I hope you have a lovely and safe rest of your week.

Sláinte.

So Armpit is behind the delayed update, figures

Yep, the dev should cut her from the game and be done with it.

I like how it lets you potentially tie all these various universes of characters together. You've got her popping up here, Vi dangling from the rearview mirror in Chasing Sunsets, which itself has Amanda talking with Artemis (and that game also interacts with Lexi). It's a nice big setup.

And Amrit as Stephanie's roommate or gym buddy (I don't remember exactly)

lexi is everywhere (i listed games where same asset appears (those i have seen) elsewhere where she's mature 40-something), seen some amrit's but with longer hair.

you can always do solo saves if you don't want to "hurt" the others. Quite a bit more effort as you need several pts but then you aren't fucking everything that moves.

That's what I do with all of these. I have a solo save for every path so as far as that file is concerned I have already "committed".

I think they met working out, connected, and then moved in together.
