Most naive thing I've read in a while.
You think people will not abuse the system? Skip sales? You'd think people will line up to buy screenshots made from this?

People have already been using WL to create VNs and porn clips. I don't see Steve being a millionare.
Marketing the game as a VN creation tool, oh yeah that's definitely where the money is at :LOL: You could get tens of sales that way, tens!

Yo AdeptusSteve my boy. I'm here to annoy you again. You know I've been pestering you since 2022 about ditching the story mode. Did you catch that Illusion went bankrupt? Yeah, that's right. Here's a step by step guide on how to get rich:

1. Ditch the story mode
2. No, really - ditch it.
3. With 100% focus on the sandbox, you're now able to refine the UI, controls and features, make all of that easier to use and put out a ton more content
4. Create more content
5. Create even more content, so much that people can create vastly different looking characters and assets
6. Launch a marketplace where people can sell models and assets, like UE, DAZ & others do
7. Collect provision on every sale
8. Now people will start to make VN's with Wildlife as creation engine, because Illusion is dead and there's no other easy-to-use competitor
9. This will boost Wild Life even more, your modding community also became huge asf
10. Congratulations you are rich now
11. Now you can develop your dream story game with 100x times the resources, without constantly being held back by attempting to be a jack of all trades

Here's the alternative plan:
1. Don't do the above, wait until someone else takes Illusion's position and live a life of regret

Thank me later.
Illusion pretty much gave up on gameplay leading up to the bankruptcy. Their last few games were mostly boring rehashed sandboxes and scene viewers with almost none of the simulation stuff they were known for back in the day.

Hello everyone, how are you?

Not sure if it's the right place to ask. Why my characters skin don't render? I mean look the nipples. I'm on sandbox mode, all the graphics are at maximum. Not sure what I am missing to change this. Thanks in advance for the answer!

Here is an example:

Mine does this occasionally, too. It helps to save the scene and then hit restart in the esc menu. Fixes it every time, for me.

That's usually happening due to hardware limitations if that helps btw, I think Dx11 is an option in the settings now? Or something else that can fix that.
Also if it's on turn global illumination off or down or whatever, it's one of the most heavy performance hitting features in UE5. (it is pretty tho)

Nope. The sandboxe is what made them stand out and so freaking popular and kept their games alive. It's the community creatings tons of assets and mods for it and creating content with it, not the story mode nobody played after 5 hours.

Illusion went bankrupt because they stopped to put effort into their new games. They once were next-gen state of the art and delivered quality nobody else had. But then they just repacked the same assets 3-4 times under different names over the next half decade, which of course, went to an extreme decline in sales.

The only new thing in these games were the stories, but nobody was interested in that.

Ok, thanks I will try that :)

But what do you mean by hardware limitations? Is it related to my hardware you mean? Because the game runs smoothly, no lag at all.
