Isit right that cpt. 16 stops right after having sex with the hobbit girl? I'm pretty sure thats where the last update ended.
no, in chp.16 you leave that city so something is wrong whit your instalment
could be a mod or lack there off, corrupted file or human error when using update only

Hello!

Rendering, it's alright, despite needing to build sets for almost every scene. Irritating, but not the end of the world.

As for writing, it's in decent shape overall, just need to write more but the current heat wave isn't making it any easier to do. But I'm not that worried. More about the set building but it is what it is.

And our heroes are somewhere warm for a change. Amusingly I messed up, I forgot to use Tomas' winter gear, and by the time I noticed it, it was too late to re-render. But luckily for me, I've already established that that clothes can be altered easily via magic so it isn't a that big of a deal. He just changed clothes between the scenes. That and I hate doing the lightning. Ah well...

Yeah. The anniversary of me starting doing this stuff is approaching. Well, not entirely accurate, but close enough. So I did a thing, probably do another for Monday. What spurred this on? Well outside the coming anniversary talk about the main menu images. Comparing TRS1, Sorcerer, and partially TRS2 with ToaM's TRS2 was fine already, I liked it, but ToaM's? Now that is entirely different level. And only time will tell can I pull something better...

Yup ..this scraping the very pit end of the barrel: a wooden cabin left to the elements, with a big open fire smack in the middle lowered to hinder Tomas sight by being right in his face and also in bumping distance for the girls to hit with their forheads and have all those hot embers spill all over Mal - guess no smoke sensors to signal everyone to get outta dodge when it spreads like wildfire to their hair, clothes, the pillar and the roof.

This is good for the story - MC and his merry companions are headded where nobody ever was heard of before, let alone return or give any sign of life - going where nobody returned from is a sign this has been abbandoned for some time and they did not finish the build - there is a huge dark triangle missing from the top of the wooden wall on the right - there it is, the gap where the snow and the rain and the cold frosty winds will sweep through, setting the cabin ablaze and all those furs on the shoulders of hotties will do them no favors.

Funny how a supposedly warm place has heavily clothed individuals not breaking a sweat or even hinting at disrobing or leaving their dusty footwears at the door - clearly this is a barn, suitable to dry hey into, store some cold food and only keep the rain or snow out, with a rook over the heads - and that is it.

Nisha cannot even look at him .. she be painfully eyes wide shut ...
while Tomas chose to look dead into the flames as a last resort.

Has Mal always looked like he had a bad toupee?
This is Mal at the beginning in the summer. This is like, his own familiar - it gets thicker and
hulks out in the winter, judging by the look of things.

Hello everyone!

So... rendering. Outside couple mandatory breaks due thunderstorms it is in okay shape. I have one scene left, relatively large though so will take a day or two to render, but that's still on schedule.

Writing is also in good shape. There are moments when there is this... I don't like using the word block since it isn't writers block, but let's say an obstacle that makes you to rewrite the scene over and over again because you just aren't happy with it as is. I'm past that so writing is flowing again nice and smoothly.

And now as for renders, I've used all non spoiler renders. So, three games, three renders. 8th of July is the day Sorcerer was released, which I personally mark as the anniversary day. Although if we count the TRS1's writing time it would be start of May. And rendering start for both TRS1 and Sorcerer was June 8th but July is good day to have it. But regardless... Also reminds me that I should convert some of the Sorcerer characters to 8.1. Mostly Alexander, better expressions for males.

I have a new favorite game, and a favorite game designer! I don't review games until they are complete but I hope this one is not complete for a long time, so I am going to take a moment to rant (in a good way) about how much I LOVE ToaM! Having enjoyed TRS1/2 and Sorcerer, I can now say that ToaM is a quantum leap even above those. I waited until 16 to start to enjoy it as I prefer to have a large chunk to get lost within, and I am lost within it!

In keeping with the whole Eternal Champion motif that I detected after finishing TRS and starting Sorceror and now this, I love how Chiel is reflected in Shani!

Beautiful images above, BTW! I just saw them and they warm my heart, despite two being in some very cold places.
