Well I was expecting the update in April, but it seems like we'll get GTA VI before this update , 4000+ renders are great but it's just too much to wait
You got the game wrong, GTA6 will come out before SG! WiAB will come out in May or June to be more exact.

Do you think Miru is doing casting for the her possible partner for THE movie? Kinky :BootyTime:
Yes, that's exactly what I was implying. Maybe it's one of her gamer friends and she's seeing if he is worthy of being in one of her movies. I love the possibilities.

She's collating a list of hot Wollust women Gigachad wants to fuck Miru wants Gigachad to fuck...

Then she will organise them all into catagories, based on who she also wants to fuck. Not that it matters, Miru has already put Katie at the top automatically.

WiAB Chapter 4 - Dev Log #25

Hello,

So, I've finished setting up the story still renders, but they haven't fully rendered yet. The queue finishes ~20-25 renders in 8h and there's currently 200 renders in the queue.

Me waiting for them to finish.

It takes this long because it's that big scene with all the characters.

I noticed that if you want to add another character to a scene this big, it takes almost 20min for it to load in.

The bigger the scene, the longer it takes for a new character to load in... I have no idea why Daz is that way.

Still Renders created over the past 12 days: 331 (214 for WIAB). I'm currently working on the animations and I think I've done around 7 in the past few days.

Render count: 3871 -> ~ 4085 (I added the ones in the queue, too.) I can give you a final render count after I'm done with postwork.

The current focus is on the the lewd animations. I could technically do 4-5 a day... But I noticed that the quality suffered as a result.

I've taken yesterday to test the timings for different animations. I have a big whiteboard here and it's now full of animation timings and a few drawings of tiddies.

At first I tested how many frames it really needs to have a good boob jiggle, then I did the same with the ass, hair, thighs, nipple piercings, and ear-rings.

The boob tests gave me a good base to work with. With hair I'm kinda familiar with as OG SG players will know.

Anyways, I can probably do 2-3 lewd animations a day now. They take significantly longer to set up, but the detail speaks for itself.

Extras
With the new Chapter I will introduce collectibles and new viewpoints.

I still have to code it in, create a gallery for it, and render 47 collectible renders. (CH1 to CH4)

It would be weird if the first three Chapters didn't have any to collect, so I'll add them there too.

Collectibles
Collectibles are extra images that you can unlock.

Who and how many collectibles does X get:

Miru: 6 collectibles + 2 ntr collectible

Leia: 6 collectibles + 1 ntr collectible

Daphne: 2 collectibles

Katie 6 collectibles + 1 ntr collectible

Monica: 5 collectibles

Gina: 4 collectibles + 1 ntr collectible.

Kata: 4 collectibles

Dana: 4 collectibles + 1 ntr collectible

Helen: 5 collectibles

With Chapter 5 I'll introduced another sort of collectible. It's awesome.

Different viewpoints.
Sometimes the leaf won't unlock a render and instead it shows you a different point of view... and sometimes even behind closed curtains...

As soon as the update is live, I'd love some feedback on these two thingies.

I'm not sure if I have told you that before, but I counted the lines and just judging by the lines of dialogue and code, Chapter 4 has ~11.000.

Chapter 1 - 3 have 12.000.

Left to do:

  • Lewd animations (Currently worked on)
  • Main cinematic
  • Postwork (Currently worked on)
  • Insult Katie (Done)
  • Testing (Currently worked on)
Other stuff:
I've picked up a Python course again. While I never plan to become a first class coder, I'd like to have a base understanding of what's going on.

What led me to do it is that Blender is also based on Python, and while I never planned to create my own addons/scripts, it might be a way to cut down mundane work in the future.

Even something as "simple" as a random-dresser for background characters would go a long way.

I'm enjoying the course, and whatever I learn, I immediately try out in Ren'Py itself. It gave me a few neat ideas. (Hour-long freeroams... just kidding.)

I didn't want to show anymore previews, but I found this render and thought what a cutie she is...

My 49" monitor is getting old and grey... Literally, I have a weird grey-fog on it. (I tried Nvidia settings, reinstalling, etc.) I just hope nothing is off with the postwork.

It's happening on both PCs with just this monitor. The other one is totally fine.

I'll upgrade the monitor when I see a 49" on sale.

Back to work

how the hell can it be comfortable to sit in front of a 49' monitor for hours on a daily basis? rip eyes

I think WIAB is honestly better than Summer's Gone. Played them both and the characters in WIAB just seem to have more of an endearing quality to me. I'm more interested in where the story goes here than SG.
i agree i love both sg and wiab but sg is going in so many directions with so many characters that it has lost its original premise which where is summer.. wiab is staying true to story with very rich deep characters . problem is doing both games it is going to be an update every 2 years now for both and that is such a long wait lol making me go crazyyyyyyyyyyyyy

And it updates maybe once a year, then after the update the dev decides to rework it, then another year passes, maybe an update, then another rework, and the cycle continues. Same with the other game, both games will probably never finish.

The way things are going, you just might be (but are probably not) right on all counts.

But that begs the question, so what if the game never finishes? It's not like one can't "finish" because the game doesn't finish, right? Right? RIGHT? And if for god knows whatever reason one can't finish because the game doesn't finish (let's call it the Nika Syndrome), one has a much bigger problem (literally) on their hands than whining about this game.

At the end of the day, it's just a game. Play it. Enjoy it. Don't fret about it.
