Hello all!

I’m... let’s say I’m mostly happy with how things are going, but I am annoyed at how long it is taking. I had hoped that I would be done by now. And it isn’t like there are issues. I’ve sorted out most of my posing issues since I’ve figured out what works and what doesn’t work, for the most part anyway. Some random mesh deformation happens occasionally that needs to be fixed, but that is usually easy to fix. I’m around 2050 renders at the moment. And unfortunately I’m beyond the point where things would be easy to "split in two". Eh, I suppose it is a consequence of requiring to write and render interactions with thirty-plus characters. I just hope my brain doesn’t enter into crunch mode again.

Writing is going alright, page here and there, constantly progressing. Adding choices is a bit annoying since you are mostly dealing with people who you already know and potentially are in a relationship right from the start, so there is no need to add choices for them. There are choices related to the plot, but it is slightly too early for them to be that meaningful.

Anor and Sanya. It’s mostly the side characters now as most of the "main cast" is already done, except for one. Well, might give an idea how to do the epilogue in Sorcerer 2.

Hobbies. I’ve been meaning to do "what the characters do as a hobby"-renders ever since I did that one with Susan boxing. Just never got around to it, really. And was reminded of it since there were some talks about it. Among other things, Alexander plays the piano, and Mei likes to sing... And speaking of Mei...

I’ll post a zip file of the renders I’ve done thus far on Monday and attach it to Monday’s progress post for those of you who aren’t on Discord. Anyway, I hope you all have a great weekend! I’ll take a break soon (after I finish this portion of the renders) and continue rendering...

Start from the beginning, right click on "skip" and you'll go through it in minutes.

Hello all!

And then there were 2200 renders... Starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hypothetically, there are around 600 renders left. Not that bad, right? Right? Well, maybe. Luckily, outside of a few annoying issues with JCM and MCM... those being "Joint Correction Morphs" and "Morph Correction Morphs" playing havoc with posing and things has got more fluid as there has been a lot of practice, more than usual.

Writing? It’s going. There isn’t much to say about it in all honesty, just shuffling things around, trying to find the right spot for the couple hundred things that have been written on the side.

Quick preview that... says absolutely nothing. Unlike other epilogues that seem to happen on a single day, this is built so that it follows more or less "natural" order, so it spreads over multiple days, so to speak.

I spend a lot of time finding environments that I need. I get the idea that I need a basement maintenance corridor for a story segment. Luckily for me, those are environments that are easy to kitbash. Concrete walls, some pipes, fluorescent lights and so on. Or occasionally you get lucky and get a pre-made environment. But those have downsides as well. Corridors like in this case? No problem. A room in a similar style? That might be a bit more difficult.

And yay... Susan’s turn. Right, as I promised, the renders I did (including the ones in here) are up to Sunday. Next Monday I’ll put this weeks renders and so on. I’ve been meaning to put together a compilation of the things I do, but I just keep forgetting. It’s one of those things. Anyway, the link:



And I’ll take a short break and continue rendering and writing!
