They're going to have to re-pose virtually the entire game to account for the added screen space, which I imagine is why they brought on two new posers to replace the one that left. That's characters, mini-games, dialogue boxes, the works. They also need to convert every character to the rig system so that they get rid of all the awkward moments where characters change appearance between conversations. That includes like 80-90% of the MC's art and at least half of the total cast. I haven't done any programming in years, but I'd bet that the coding team is going to find it easier to rewrite the game from scratch rather than leave the Frankenstein-like construction that SS has turned into.For those of you following closer than I have been:
I get that the art will need to be adjusted for the tech update, but is there a bunch of other stuff that also needs to be done? I imagine re-posing a lot of things, but will they have to do a bunch of code work for it?
yeah it should only have an effect on your penis if you're into that sort of thing. seeing nude preggo grace in the bathroom is honestly one of the best sights in the game and it's entirely missableSo how does pregnancy effect the game? after the progress is done, everything is gonna be allright with that pregnant character? So only problem is that her route stops for some time?
I'm almost sure that's not planned for the tech update. The art, which is still not on the rig will remain as it is, until the remaining stories get their rework - that basically includes Debbie, Erik, Mia, the teachers, Roxxy and Aqua.They also need to convert every character to the rig system so that they get rid of all the awkward moments where characters change appearance between conversations.

"This" update is Liu the bankgirl and the mafia boss's daughter Nad(i)ya. Both preg. Maybe a random scene from a random girl thrown in for the lulzI'm looking forward to this update, if they finally deliver it as I hope they do, I will return to fund the dev (stopped a long while ago).
A cow/girl hybrid and you think the lack of arms is the creepy part?View attachment 1092866 oh man,this is creepy,her arms are gone
Rinse and repeatPretty much so.
Character getting pregnant.
Can't have sex for a while. Except some characters like Maria that include preg-sex.
Labor.
Can't have sex for a while. (Mom and Baby interaction).
Baby sent to Lucy's daycare.
Can have sex again.
Do that 100 times and you are in for a surprise...Pretty much so.

You're right, I re-read the poll and he didn't explicitly mention the rig system. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to implement it as much as possible, though; Debbie, Roxxy, and the teacher stories need additions rather than reworks so it'd be remiss of them not to re-do the existing art while they're redoing the posing. I think they also have yet to slot the new MC art into the Jenny, Eve, and Diane stories, too.I'm almost sure that's not planned for the tech update.

Else DC already hinted that they may keep the old sex scenes of these stories in 4:3, too, until they get replaced.
DC mentioned cutting some corners such as keeping minigames in the current screen size and just having black bars on the sides, so that's at least some time saved.They're going to have to re-pose virtually the entire game to account for the added screen space, which I imagine is why they brought on two new posers to replace the one that left.

did they assume that we can get the update next month ?DC, Sploosh, and Stray said on the recent stream that everything that they wanted to do for tech update would be to much for one update, so they will work on the backgrounds and save compatibility for now.
might not be a bad thing if we are still getting the 6 new h-scenes from the poll.DC, Sploosh, and Stray said on the recent stream that everything that they wanted to do for tech update would be to much for one update, so they will work on the backgrounds and save compatibility for now.
I'm not sure if we'd actually get a dedicated 2nd tech upgrade in that case. In the end they only do it because it takes DC quite a bit of time to extend the existing backgrounds. I'd guess that everything else, that doesn't require new art, could simply happen in Ronda's or Annie's update.might not be a bad thing if we are still getting the 6 new h-scenes from the poll.
so is the new plan to make it like this: tech update 1 ---> rhonda ---> tech update 2 ---> annie?
I always had the impression that they'll simply leave the old posing as it is for these stories until they get their actual rework. At least that's my expectation for now, we'll get a widescreen resolution, but a lot of the action will still happen in the same old 4:3 window until they manage to change to change it.I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to implement it as much as possible, though; Debbie, Roxxy, and the teacher stories need additions rather than reworks so it'd be remiss of them not to re-do the existing art while they're redoing the posing.
