if I may ask, which program do you use for scene setup and rendering? daz, blender, unreal?

also you may need to make normals, diffusion and glosy textures as well to have a more detailed skin. havent used SP before so I am not familiar if you can have them created ther or not, my guess would be that it is possible though since it is industry standard afaik


I'm using Blender.
I already have roughness and a normal map, but it must be the SSS that visually softens them. But if I use less SSS, the skin looks plasticky.

there are a few tutorials I have seen with a workflow of SP and blender but also straight up Principled BSDF, with only a few iirc other nodes used. and thre skin looks rather realistic. is it cycles your renderer or eevee? cause eeve indeed has a plasticity that you may have to play around a bit.

there are many similar to tutorials that could help. and look around on how to fix the eyes as well. since you know your way around blender it wont be very difficult for you. me on the other hand, I am stragling :ROFLMAO:

best of luck!

I think the problem with the somewhat feminine face came mainly from the hairiness. The eyelashes were too thick and few in number, like false eyelashes. The beard was too neat, and the eyebrows weren't thick and masculine enough. I've improved that, thanks for the feedback, I'm still learning.
The image on the left is the original one, the one on the right is with the improvements.

So far, I like it.
A few comments:
Even though I've selected the French version, when I load a save it's always in English.
A lot of images, a lot of text, I didn't get very far (he's found the chick and stops, supposedly to take a piss). It reminded me more of a novel than a porn game... I like novels, I really appreciate the French used... I just wasn't really expecting this, I wasn't really in the mood to read a novel.
But that's not a negative review, I'll try it back later.
Perhaps you should warn that the prologue is long and requires patience. Like long run and not quick fap material. ;)
Otherwise, yes, congratulations on the images, the text and the humour, it's a good job. And hats off to you too for your mastery of Blender. Have you used MakeHuman?

La version française : il y a des nuances que j'ai du mal à faire en anglais... L'anglais est ma ma langue maternelle en un sens, mais ça fait 60 ans que je ne la pratique plus
Pour l'instant, j'aime bien ce truc.
Quelques remarques :
J'ai beau avoir sélectionné la version française, quand je charge une sauvegarde, elle est toujours en anglais.
Beaucoup d'images, beaucoup de texte, je ne suis pas allé très loin (il a trouvé la nana et arrête soi-disant pour aller pisser). Ça me fait penser plus à un roman qu'à un jeu porno… J'aime bien les romans, j'apprécie beaucoup le français utilisé… Juste, je ne m'attendais pas vraiment à ça, je n'étais pas vraiment d'humeur à lire un roman, j'y reviendrai plus tard.
Mais ce n'est pas une critique négative.
Il faudrait peut-être que vous préveniez que le prologue est long et qu'il faut de la patience.
Sinon, oui, bravo pour les images, le texte, et les pointes d'humour, c'est du bon travail.
Et chapeau aussi pour la maîtrise de Blender. Est-ce que vous avez utilisé MakeHuman ?

Your impression is probably spot-on, given that I’ve written several novels in the past. That said, another player found the prologue too short.

My vision might differ from most VNs I’ve played. I truly want to prioritize the story; the adult content is a bonus I’ll include as often as possible, but only when it feels organic.

I’ve noted your remark about the language switching—I’ll fix that, sorry about that. Ren’Py is simple yet tricky; I’m still getting familiar with the code and learning as I go.

I create all my renders in Blender. That’s where I’ve modeled the entire environment. I use a few other (free) software tools to help with character modeling, then finalize details in Blender—but I don’t use MakeHuman. I handle clothing and textures entirely myself.

Thank you for your encouraging feedback—it genuinely means a lot! I hope you’ll stick around; I believe it’ll be worth your time, and it’s not overly long.

thanks !
What's wrong with eyes ?
I'm using Cycles.
eyelids, eyebrows and the eyes themselves.

hopefully I dont seem judgmental or anything, its not my intention.

the eyes themselves seem to lack, "life" for lack of a beter word. perhaps the lighting, I cant be sure. also I am not sure if the model itself is custom you created in blender or someother figure from softwares like daz for example.

daz usually, with the official bridge or the diffeomorphic addon, offers all the texture maps you will need and you can achieve pretty good results with, again, a bit of tweecking.

for example, this is your render compared to my attempt with a transfered daz character.

I've finished the prologue.
Yes, it's really well written. It's just that ‘intéressante comme vision’ seems a bit odd, I'd have put ‘c'est une vision des choses intéressante’ or something along those lines, seems more French to me... But, ofc, you're the writer! ;)
As for languages, according to the rules here, you can write in any language you like, you just have to provide the English translation. But it depends on the Mod, I've already been banned some years ago, because I put French before English (the picth must have been too long and English too far away, I suppose).
Yes, the language problem needs to be corrected ASAP, because it leads to a lot of error messages afterwards, such as

I’m carefully considering all the feedback. I’m exploring the idea of introducing a new character—his brother—who could naturally replace the current protagonist. You’d play as him later in the story, and he’d bring a fresh dynamic with his more cheerful and responsible personality. I actually finished modeling him this morning.

I’ve noticed several people are put off by the current protagonist’s design, even though I’ve seen plenty of popular games with unconventional-looking main characters. Still, I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
now i feel bad for poking fun :rolleyes:

since the game is so early in development, why not just replace current MC model? consider his design a prototype.

To me, he is not so ugly. ;)
But I deliberately created a character that deviates from the norm, because in most games they are too perfect, almost unreal. That said, since several people made fun of him even though he was born like that :cry:, I plan to replace him later with his brother, whom I just finished modeling, with a more conventional look. I'm not sure at this point.

Mc model is fine, for me it's just the lips and skin that are too smooth i guess ? That applied to the girl too. Maybe just more texture to give it relief ?
As french myself i like the tone and humor of the game, keep up the good work.

Alright, review time. Finnished the prologue and it seems exciting. I was quite annoyed with the long whistling, but so was she. Definately want to see this finnished :)
