Look 2 posts up....
The next log will be a simple post where I'll tell you guys that the game has been shipped to Steam and is being verified for release.Summer's Gone Dev Log - Season 1 All Changes
Hello,
So, the Dev Log is a day late, and there's a good reason for it. I just can't get into it at the moment. I will be able to do so in around two weeks.
I will finish all the postwork today and continue with the gallery next.
I will ship Chapter 2 to the proofreaders today, and testing will go hand in hand with the gallery work.
The testing process is a little more complicated this time, as I have to test for the ability to port saves.
It means I gotta test a ton of variables and see if they port correctly.
I did get sick of postwork a few times in the past two weeks and instead worked on Season 2.
Expect some nice previews after the release of the Full.
Today, I will show all the changes I made since the initial Chapter 5 Beta release.
One thing I can assure you is that this is the last rework SG will see until the entire game is finished. I don't care if earlier Chapters suddenly start looking like Old-School Runescape Characters; we'll only be moving forward.
And the momentum Steam, etc., gives us will be used for it.
There's A LOT of renders coming... Prepare. All images in full res are in the zip down below.
We'll start with Chapter 2. The actual target of the last part of the rework.
Chapter 2:
Old Heist
New heist
Old Cheeto route:

Nami vs Bella - Basketball Old
Nami vs Bella - Basketball New (The new version gets a little more physical.)
Old Nurse & Hill

Old casual college hallway
New casual college hallway with some ambiance.
Marla talks to the MC about VIc's accident.
Old Bellchen & Amber
New Bellchen and Amber
Old Maja (This model was only used in this one scene. The one in CH3 was already different.
New
Old Vic
New Vic
New scenes in Chapter 2.
The heist with Bella doesn't end in the Holgerson's front yard; instead, there's a new scene in Bella's kitchen. (My fav.)
Most of Chapter 2 will feel new, but the next scene is a result of changes made to the class.
How did they end up in a bathroom?
Finally, a small new scene, which also sets up the Sai confrontation in Chapter 3.
Now to Chapter 3.
Old Mila gym
New Mila gym
Old Mila lounge
New Mila lounge
New Clothing store with Bella
Chapter 3.5 now.
I only changed scenes where the old Mila model was present until the changing room.

That was pretty much it.
There are cases where I just changed 1-5 renders. For example, there was a scene with the very old Robin model. (Chapter 3).
Also, a little bus scene was added to Chapter 2, etc.
The CH5 Full is pretty much the size of a new update.
I know some scenes aren't up to date in terms of quality. For example, Chapter 3 has a bar scene with Ayua, etc.
I would only do it if the Steam verification takes longer than expected. Then, I would do 25-30 extra renders for the bar scene in Chapter 3.
But the moment Steam gives me the green light, the game will be released on Steam and a few days later on Patreon.
It's time to finally move on from Season 1.
The next log will be a simple post where I'll tell you guys that the game has been shipped to Steam and is being verified for release.

That's Layla, she works at the college tavern and leads the yoga class. Ocean did some special renders of her doing yoga a couple of dev logs back. And nah, no one can rival Ch1 Mila, it wasn't only hair that Ocean made defy gravity

More interesting is the girl with short hair who talks to Sasha. She can often be seen somewhere behind, in the shadows.

Yeah, she seemed super interested in Nika staring at the basket ball tryout poster in CH1. And Sasha's pretty comfortable lurking herself
I am more interested in the new orange haired girl from the ch.1 remake who is walking with Sasha.
Damn! For a second I thought you were showing Coach Hill & Stahl's new strengthening regime for the basketball team.

No because it's all the same render. Now, if someone wanted to the spend the time required to cut her out of the image so you have her alone to create a sig with, then sure it's possible.

It's pretty great resolution, just crop it and scale it down to a profile pic size
Edit, ah sorry, brain fart. Yeah, if you want to change the background for a sig, crop it, and try an AI thing if you're feeling saucy.

What are you talking about, it doesn't say anything about spam, you're making something up. We were sent a leaked devlog, and you're talking about what spams....

I won’t argue, as far as I remember he has 2 of them.
It's in Ocean's Logs. As you wrote, he spent 10/11 months developing chapter 5, he made 1600 pictures for SG and the same number for Wiab in 3 months. I have no information about what he did in the remaining 8 months. The only thing that is known is that during this time the number of pictures was increased by 600 for both games.
This is absolutely not true. Ocean tries to make beautiful and high-quality pictures. But he’s not the only one, many artists also make high-quality pictures, but they don’t have the money to buy an A6000 or 3090. How then do they make renderings if they don’t have enough VRAM? Of course, a large number of Vrams is good, but if there is none, it does not mean that you cannot make renders. You can find a bunch of ways to quickly render without losing quality and with a small VRAM.... here's one of them...

I don’t follow this either, Ocean’s patreons do it themselves. It’s strange, they started discussing one topic, but everything turned into a discussion of video cards.

Lmfao I almost confused her and this thread with another Game since they both start with summer and have a teacher with the same last name.
