Hello.
Now I would like to write what happened last month and why there were no updates.
But first, I'll explain how the game develops, specifically rendering. I already wrote once, but I repeat for the newcomers.
Now, I have a very old computer.
Intel I5 4670, 16 Gb Ram (was 8), NVidia GTX 770 2 Gb.
Render of one picture usually takes from 8 to 24 hours. Sometimes I take the GTX 1070 from my friend and the render goes several times faster.
How does process. I come home in the evening, prepare several scenes for rendering, and start render for the night. Then wake up I turn on one more, go to work, on work connecting with "team viewer" and start another one. Not perfect, but works.
I returned in mid-August from a business trip, as usual I started rendering and went to work. Closer to the evening I am connected by the team viewer, the computer does not respond, I come home and saw the error "Not enough memory"
And after this time I was able to render only two or three images. All the time this error. At the DAZ forum, I was advised to rearrange Windows 7 to 10, which I did. But the DAZ base is 200Gb and I had to downloaded it out again. And of course the permutation did not help. All became even worse. Now even without rendering, during the construction of the scene the program crashed with this an error.
I again returned Windows 7, downloaded the base again, took $ 70 from the patreon and ordered 8Gb of memory.
Now everything works a little better, the error pops up every few days, but I'm happy. Works well.
And now why all this bacchanalia lasted a whole month.
If anyone did not know, now a very weak ruble is 66 rubles per dollar, and last month it fell sharply. The head of the firm where I work had a genius idea that soon the dollar will cost 100 and need to quickly fill out the warehouses with foreign goods. We worked overtime for a month (naturally for free), I twice went on a business trip and came home at 8-9 o'clock in the evening. Naturally time was very little to do something.
That's how I lived the last month. But now everything is fine, I have some preparations for the future. I hope at least for the first time I will be able to release updates every week.
I wanted to apologize for not writing anything, because I did not know what to write and when I will return to work on the game.
And I would also like to apologize to patrons for I having withdrawn some of the money that was collected for translation and spent for the memory, but without that I could not work further.
