287k units soldHmm, it could mean $2900. Technically, thousand is "m" and million is "mm" in accounting-speak.

In the study room, on the desk...i know ocean is waiting me to ask here first wheres the dev log for him to post right after and i look bad so here it is
WHERES THE DEV LOG
You must be registered to see the links
Hello,
So... I'm around 1100 renders in, I've also finished a few animations & work on the phone is also progressing.
I also increased the weekly hours I put into Blender. I feel like I don't make enough progress there.
Future Treats will mostly be done there. (At least for the characters I've already ported over.
Speaking about porting people over.
I more or less successfully ported this bibi over.

There are still some issues that prevent me from really doing some work in Blender... For example, the clothing is a pain in the ass. It keeps clipping and deforming. (Which is why Sasha's nude.)
I need to understand the issue itself first.
As soon as the clothing issue is fixed, I should have most of it working for the short stories.
The expressions are also obviously not working as precisely, but well, I'll find solutions as I go. There's a good chance I will make a Blender Sasha Treat in the near future.
I will also create a Blender cinematic for the new SG Intro. Since I had to remove the old music, the little intro with the raccoon is redundant.
I already have the license for the new intro music and only need to get it done in Blender.
It will probably be added with the Chapter 5 Full/Steam release.
Now that I'm rendering a very big scene in Chapter 5, WiAB's A6000 saved my ass a couple of times. The scene has soooo many people in it.
SG will get its own A6000 after the Steam release. (Or multiple.)
Sadly, I'm only rendering like 5-9 renders a night. It takes like an hour to open the scene for every single render in the queue.
The previews today don't show much, but I need to be extremely careful with what I show.
Maturity.

I never hype up Chapters, but I have to admit that when it comes to the amount of information & story content, this Chapter tops every other Chapter that has been released yet.
I'll see you in two weeks.

It's same girl from pic above Nojiko one, she's in the back. At least I think it's herI deeply hope that the gray-haired woman we see Nojiko looking down on is someone connected to Wiab.
Got Bella on my side. Hell should be afraid of us.Zwei Himmelhunde auf dem Weg zur Hölle. (Two celestial dogs on their way to hell.)

This is definitely a possibility. Unless the woman went grey before her age, she should be old enough to be around in WIAB´s events.I deeply hope that the gray-haired woman we see Nojiko looking down on is someone connected to Wiab.
Smiling Sasha is one of the creepiest, scariest, maniacal and most horrifying sh*t I've seen in a while wtf dude??? Welcome to the fifth installment of the "Psycho" franchise I guess...
Yea me too i dont think i was ever looking for a update like i am to this one and it is tough the wait but i know it will be worth itReally looking forward to Ch5. Nice update, thx.
Scarlett maybe. Nojiko mentioned her previously in the game.I deeply hope that the gray-haired woman we see Nojiko looking down on is someone connected to Wiab.
A couple years give or take not much really have patienceWhen can we expect the update?
I think so too! Here are some thoughts who this woman could be if she is from WIAB.It's same girl from pic above Nojiko one, she's in the back. At least I think it's her![]()
Damn, You mentioned almost everyone from WIAB . XDI think so too! Here are some thoughts who this woman could be if she is from WIAB.
She has a mega-Dutt hairstyle and there is still some rest of blueish-white colour tone in her hair. Her erpression seems to be earnest, stern and has some necklace or band around her neck.
Leia is a possibility, but her dutt (when she wears one) is a lot smaller than the one of this person, also she does not colour her hair and the unknown girl does NOT wear Leia´s trademark snake necklace. So Leia is not very probable going by the few things we can say, esp. since she is the most likely person to have given Nami her special earring.
Miru is also a possibility, she can put on a very earnest posture like Leia does. In addition the band thing the unknown wears has some similarity to the band necklace Miru wears sometimes. But like Leia, Miru does neither colour her hair in WIAB nor is she a Dutt style person. And more, while Miru can be ruthless, in WIAB she is much more a mediator in the early chapters. doubtful, that she would become such an enemy of Nojiko, unless there is something we do not know currently.
Kati could also be an option since there is some similarity to her "I am stern now" posture in WIAB and Kati colours her hair whiteish. Additionally she takes feuds very earnest and far. Still I do not see the connection with what we know currently.
Zoey is also in the race of possibly being the person Nojiko has problems with. Zoey is a Holgerson and she colours her hair whiteish-blue in WIAB, just like the unknown here. But Zoey is a free spirit in WIAB, new and old, being on friendly terms with nearly anyone. This would be a major change.
Willi´s cousin Kat is also an option because from the few despriptions we have of Nick´s former wife, she could be the one, esp. Zara´s competitive streak is very similar to Kat´s own im WIAB. But I think it more likely that Kat is the Mom of Nadia.
I saw Scarlett mentioned in some posts as a possibility and yes it is possible. But unlikely since Scarlett would be quite a bit older in SG than the unknown person seems to be despite the white hair.
Hi Ocean! This might be a stupid question, but as someone having just newbie knowledge of the various render programs (and maybe I have forgotten if you wrote about it in a former Dev post), why are you going towards a DAZ+Blender solution instead of a DAZ+Unreal 5? Even for my novice experimentation with the various 3D programs, Blender feels rather overcomplicated and going against some standards. Unreal has it´s own pitfalls without doubt once you get deeper in, but it does not feel as fiddly and finicky as Blender does to me. And their licence is definitely ok-ish to the naked eye.There are still some issues that prevent me from really doing some work in Blender... For example, the clothing is a pain in the ass.

Unreal is a lot tougher to learn. Artists can get away easily with DAZ, casus that's what it's targeted towards, Blender has learning curve but you still can learn it, but Unreal is something else. It is mostly used by people who has atleast basic understanding of programming and some other stuff. Unreal is really tough.Hi Ocean!
