I know I'm not the greatest on making these changes to the game. I tried to follow your example but I keep spinning my wheels. I downloaded the new update and the save you added to the forum. I opened the game and played, then saved after day two. Went back into the game to look for above line using both search then manually going thru line by line. Was like watching paint dry. Could not find AppData. What the hell am I doing wrong???
Paste this into explorer address bar and hit enter:
Code:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\KsTgames\The Twist\
Or google "show hidden folders"

I don't wan't to be "that guy" and start criying "this game is diying!!" but after 4 months (more or less) I saw no real progress to the main history. New characters, new scenes, but It's like no clear direction. Janice history is stucked it seems like kst does not know What to do whith her, the more characters the more history blurs.

And at last but at least, the goal...I mean...8k per month only for music? I read ppl asking for a graphic upgrade, hiring one more graphic designer would improve the game, and ppl would be Happy whith more natural characters.

World building takes time. Also, this update does more work toward Jason finding information about his birth parents.
That relates to Janice's (and by extension John's) past.
We've had some information about Janice's past with the added Danielle content previously, and no doubt will get more of both together.

Paying to have music made is, I imagine, expensive. Particularly when added to all other costs that the funding it covering.

There's a difference between a graphical upgrade and hiring a graphical designer.
A graphical upgrade relates to image quality, and other pretty effects, which includes things that have already been improved/added more than once. I don't doubt that there will probably be more.
At the same time, it will also cause more issues when it comes to hardware limitations. IIRC, one of the improvements implemented was directly related to an update with the Unity engine itself, and locked out some older operating systems due to them not having DirectX11 because they were too old i.e. Windows 7.

Hiring someone to try to improve the appearance of the character models is a different thing, and is purely subjective.
What would be improved, and why?
What's wrong with the models used?
The only criticism I have as far as the models in the game is with Jason. Personally, he's too short. It's also purely subjective.

You're going to have to explain a bit more by what you mean by "natural characters" though, and why "people would be happy".

Thanks for answering the question. I did what you said and it does pull up the line as well as the other two saves in the drop down. Went to open it and I get a quick flash and its gone. Must not have the right compatibility.

Make characters bodies and faces more " human/natural/non-robotic" ?? Sometimes are like mannequins.
This is matter of taste, first of all your taste cant generalize whole ''The Twist'' community there for this whole statement about graphic style stands as your opinion.
Character bodies are fine btw.
You cant just do perfect real time rendering with extremely detailed drawings, dev is just one guy and unity is an limited engine

I always thought KsT was westernazing ''shota/milf'' hentais so that's what i thought about Jason's height.

He literally said that the character bodies are fine. That means he doesn't think they need improvement.

Just because you think they need to be improved, does not mean they need to be improved.
The only graphical improvements that are likely to come, is in lighting/reflection/shadows etc. Things that don't have anything to do with the models.
With what KST has available, what we've got is as good as I've seen in any Unity game when it comes to human models.

We won't be getting "natural" skin like we see in high quality DAZ renders that get used in a lot of porn comics and visual novels now. Not for this game, not for a long time.
Not until the Unity engine is vastly more capable, and I mean in terms of matching up to at least current Frostbite or Unreal 4 engines. Not to mention the fact that the majority of players would need much, much better rigs (computer hardware).

I always thought KsT was westernazing ''shota/milf'' hentais so that's what i thought about Jason's height.
I think it was more for the age difference, since Jason and Julia are about the same (if not identical) height, than for the younger man/boy fetish.
Kendra (Emma's niece) is shorter than Emma, or at least appeared so in her introduction scene.

As I said though, it's purely a subjective issue on my part. Annoying, but it's far from a "deal breaker" for me.
