Waaait does the duck in the bathtub has a scar just like Sasha's?

I noticed that too. It's weird, is it like a voodoo duck AYua keeps to ensure Sasha always loses their fighty fights? Is it a weird render issue?

...or is the duck actually Summer reincarnated as a float toy? At this point, it's just weirdly horror movie creepy, needs some ominous music.

Lewdpatcher hasn't been updated to the current game, it's unlikely to be updated as the game's been updated. If you use lewdpatcher, it's only work for the version it is listed for, not the full season 1. You'll end up with errors everywhere.

I think the infamous patch is someone else's version of the lewdpatcher, just the script changes they think make sense, like lewdpatch was, and the uncut version is a fan made one restoring cinematics that were cut because of licensing, scenes that were changed or shortened etc.

If you want to see the historical versions, the uncut mod is the only thing you need. If you just want something equivalent to lewdpatcher (ie keep all the official renders the same), the infamous mod is all you need. If you want to carry your save from season 1 to season 2, mods might cause that to fail. Season 1 unpatched is the only supported save that will import into season 2... Ocean won't guarantee the game works with any third party mod.



That is what I'd thought but my understanding was the third game idea with the female protagonist will be set inbetween WiaB and SG. Ayua would have to be in a fourth game then, which is far too distant for me to even register as a thought process. I'm far mor interested in the Ayua in that render to wait for the planned fourth game.

There is no problem with siblings being LI's, as long as they are solo paths ie. you can choose one of them, and only one, no throuple possible, door a or door b, choice swings shut behind you.

Edit: just noticed - does Ayua call that duck Sasha?

I hope he doesnt make a female protagonist game with her, i dont play femprot games o/
And i agree with you, because doesnt matter what are his intentions on a possible 3rd (or 4th) game, it will take AGES to be released or completed...SG and WiAB are far ...far away of being completed and i doubt he could menage 3 or 4 games at once without taking 15 years to finish them all. 2 games are more than enough, and like you im more interested in Ayua now. If he reaches the point of a 3rd or 4th game, then theres plenty of choices for it considering how many kids his previous protagonists can have.

And yes, you right, even in SG Vanessa and Zara are LI...happy to be wrong :LOL:

Understandable but it could be an interesting game... Summer story could be interesting and even a way to explain what happened to her with more details. Her character could be even something like Nika, she is a funny and "active" girl but if a trauma gets her she could become an introvert and have social problems like Nika.

Anyway if is going to exist a female protagonist game i need a femdom/submissive tag, it would be a crime don´t be able to control a female character and can´t dominate or be dominated...:rolleyes:

Do you really think that I follow Ocean all day long? I just read the most popular and discussed topics that create his patreons. By the way, about drinking..... some people think that Ocean started drinking heavily because he talks nonsense in his logs. For example..... Some people are angry that Ocean started to deceive them again and drag out the game, referring to post-work. To be honest, this whole situation with post-work seems strange to me too. Everyone already knows that Ocean does not do it. Post-work is done to improve the image so that it becomes more photorealistic. Ocean does not make photorealistic renders, on the contrary, his entire background is blurred.

Post-work is defined as literally any work done afterwards. The work could be making it more photorealistic, but it absolutely doesn't mean only that. In fact, often post-work is not done to make it more photorealistic but to make it more cinematic.

Can that be possible or it was just Ocean making a joke? I don´t see Bella accepting it, at least if you are in her route.

But could be cool if at some point she accepts or if Ayua opens her phone and see it.

I don't really count any of these random looking shots as having any cononical signifigance until I see it in the release. I think it's for funnies until I see otherwise.

You're a little confused. Cinematik is working with video, not with static renders, no one discussed video here.

Blender is not such a complicated program that it takes a long time to learn it. It will take no more than half a year for beginners to learn it with a teacher. Several years ago I saw a video of a guy who moved from a village to a big city. He missed his friends and relatives so much that he started learning Blender to create a virtual model of his village from memory. He watched free lessons and learned to work in Blender from them. In 9 months, he learned to work in Blender and created his own village.

All this only concerned beginners who do not know anything about rendering. And people with experience in other programs spend 1-3 months learning Blender. Ocean wrote in his logs about 3 years ago that he began to learn Blender. And he is still learning it. People often made fun of him for this. Do not take Ocean's words seriously, there is little truth in them.

I was actually quite rude to Ocean. If he just wants to make adult games and nothing else, he doesn't need any special knowledge. If he wants to just transfer models into Blender and use that 3d program only for rendering and lighting, no problem. It is quite enough for his tasks. If he wants to completely switch to Blender, create environments in it, create simulations, visual effects, animations, do motion design - that's a different issue.
But before Ocean can fully switch to Blender, he needs to learn how to optimize scenes and resources. You can just render a 10 million polygon scene and think it's going to work. Not Blender.

If Ocean wants to switch completely to Blender, he may have some problems. Transferring models and rendering them is not difficult and Ocean has already done it, and the most difficult part will start when creating a video. There are many problems with clothes and their physics when moving, you need to study a lot to set it up correctly. But if he learns to do this, these will be stunningly beautiful animations. Ocean himself should choose which program is convenient for him to work in, but to be honest, I do not think that Ocean will switch to Blender. He has been studying it for more than 3 years, and Blender is not so difficult to study it for so long, if Ocean wanted, he would have switched completely to it long ago.
