Honestly I don't know - they might be legitimate vignettes - the way you suggest would be great. I doubt they'll be tacky like christmas specials in other AVNs in any case.

I guess we'll be waiting to see what the next chapter brings, I suspect the short stories will be things where Ocean is trying out new ideas to discover new ways to work. I'm currently thinking of them like Ocean's treats.

None of this negates them revealing deeper info about the main story, I'm just guessing they're non canon, because they will be optional.
I have a similar way of think, just that being canonical brings more weight to the main story and the short one, and also forces the later to be more contained. My fear is the short stories are a "what if" with out no real implication to the main story, I am not much interest in that, but am happy to try.

Since the main story is only told explicitly through Nika's eyes and we are unable to see almost anything (I guess the exchange between Emilio and Stephanie (? was that her name) after Nika and Bella leave is a small exception and maybe some other small scenes that I've forgot about) that goes on when he's not around, so I don't see any reason why the side stories wouldn't be canonical, with implications to the main story. They would just be stories through the eyes of the other characters.
I think it would be awesome to take a look at the back story of the main one through the eyes of the characters involved. Know what they think and /or feel.

It's simple. He is already learning Blender, devoting some time to it. It’s just that now, instead of unrelated renders, he will make short non-canonical stories. At least that's how I understood it.
(y) (y)

Totally how I see the side 'story' aspect playing out.

If Ocean gives us 10 good Blender images of Maja with a particular focus, we can write our own stories inspired by those images.

Ocean gets his Blender practice, and we get some great Maja moments!!

He said he does, I believe, an hour or more of Blender practice every day so why not leverage it giving us non-canon women side story LI 'status' for a short burst of imagery.

We're not expecting perfect images - really just hors d'oeuvres to help tide us over until S2 has its first release.

Win! Win!

Cheers!! :coffee:

Robin is a sweetheart. She deserves more screentime in the upcoming season :giggle:
I mean, look at her. She's gorgeous :love: :whistle::ROFLMAO:
Nuh huh! Nope. I love Vic but you can have her. I'm skipping any future scenes in which she isn't fully clothed. Fuck that. The one topless render of her on the couch after the sleepover will haunt my sleep for years. That shit is nightmare fuel. Silent Hill nurses will give me a boner before Vic :ROFLMAO:

Guys, guys...GUYS!

Long as there a kinky one for Katie...who cares if they canonical or not? :sneaky: :ROFLMAO: :WeSmart::devilish:
Which Katie though?

Mind you, it was a joke aimed at Victoria to show how great Robin is compared to her :WeSmart: I dislike everything about Vic big time, from her appearance to her personality.
Robin on the other hand is in my top 5 ;)

If possible, it's better from before the reworked version :love:

I like WIAB but these are best posted in that thread.

It will also lead to less confusion for those not as familiar with the SG thread.

Crossing the streams won't cause the end of the world like it would in Ghostbusters ... but

Cheers!! :coffee:

Oh wait...I'm mixing people up then. Who is the Vic lover here? Is it yossa? I'm confused now :confused:
I love Vic's personality. Same as Mila. I'm a sucker for nice, wholesome, vanilla girls. They are both cute but when it comes to body...that's just not my thing AT ALL.

Since Katie now features in SG as well I think the mods may show a little leeway. But you're right.

Summer's Gone - Season 2 - Chapter 1 - Dev Log #9
Hello,



The log is a few hours late. I apologize!

Apparently, when I say, "Sure, I'll come by the Biergarten, but I gotta go earlier to do some work." it doesn't always work out.



Productivity is still going strong.



What worries me, though, is that when I look at the number of renders I've finished compared to the number of scenes that are done...

I fear the update might end up with 5000-8000 still renders. Yesterday, I checked, and this update has at least one scene for every relevant girl. (Yes, including Maja.)

I'd say 5000 renders is a safe bet. That would be double Chapter 5's render count.



I think it will be a great opening to the new season.



There's not much else to say; at least, I can't say much without spoiling a few new elements I will add to the game. I think they will greatly enhance the game's cinematic and high-quality feel.

After the update, I will do a poll to see if you guys liked them.



Previews: (4K attached for download.)
A squishy Zara




A firm Zara




Signature look of superiority




I'm kinda bummed by the fact that I can't really show anything of the Cheeto and Mila intro scenes... Especially Mila's scene has two big reasons why I can't/don't want to show them.



These are the most innocent renders I could find.







I'll show some Cheeto intro renders in the next Dev Log. I haven't finished the Cheeto scene yet, so my selection is limited.



Mila is also a prime candidate for my Blender experiments. After this update, I'll port that Bibi over to create some test animations & renders with her.

At the moment, I'm still using Sasha for most of my tests, but I can't show her nude yet, so I've got to switch my test models. (I'm currently prepping Miru.)



One word describes S2-CH1: Progress


That's what it feels like.



I'll see you in two weeks!

Always Katie from Wiab, right?

I think... I think we have won guys! More renders=More gampeplay time and Maja... :love:
Said that we are going to need a lot of tiiime for watch the release of this chapter i think, I foresee beginning of 2025 and not 2024 end, i hope i´m wrong :)

The dev log makes it both harder to wait and easier to understand why the first rev of S2 will take so long...

Render count = 5K + (and that does not include any of the cinematography transitions)

We get a scene with every relevant lady including the lovely Maja

And finally - Vanessa:

zVanessa1.png

She handed off the torch to the first runner in Olympia Greece, in the torch relay that will see the torch delivered to Paris - all part of the pomp and circumstance of the Paris Olympics.

She'd warned the runners that if they do not run fast enough, they are going to get a 'Mario' - little do they know...:oops:

As for the spectators - they thought that Vanessa was wearing a costume...

Cheers!! :coffee:
