It seems that was fixed already. You can redownload the game, or do what I did, and move the game/images/quests/blossomb folder into the game/images/quests/jade folder. The download isn't exactly huge, so whichever you prefer, but if you're still getting that issue, then you're a couple bugfix versions behind, and may want to just redownload anyway to grab the other fix(es) you're missing.

[PROGRESS REPORT] A Blessing in Disguise​

Hoo boy. This has been a BUSY month, y'all.

What I THOUGHT was going to be a crisis in the house we're renting pushed me out of my comfort zone and got me job hunting for a second job, and this crisis has turned into an opportunity. I ended up landing a job, a VERY good job, which I'll only have to work for 3 days a week if that's all the time I want. I can shift my security job to the other two days, which will leave a day for streaming and a day off from everything. And that's if I don't quit security altogether.

What was this crisis, you ask? Well, we've had a problem with a roommate over the past year that they've been here, and they are moving out. Great person, great friend, just didn't work out as a roommate. The problem is, we haven't quite gotten anyone to fill their spot, and the lease renews on May 1st. So rent goes up for the rest of us for May at the very least since we're splitting it between less people. Does that sound scary? Yeah it was scary. But then I landed this job.

I was dreading the way this might end up making me neglect the game, but it did the opposite. Though yes, I'm taking a break from WCA's actual coding development for just a few weeks while I train and get settled into this new job, Necro and I haven't stopped brainstorming and planning and creating new models for future episodes and writing side character scene plans, etc. And the icing on the cake? I've already confirmed that this new job would like me to bring something like my laptop to these overnight shifts, as in their minds, anything to keep me awake during shift is a good thing.

And that means at least 3 nights a week I can work on WCA in a comfy ass chair getting paid $5 an hour more than my security job working one 8 hour shift and two 12 hour shifts.

This is massive not only for my quality of life, but for WCA as well. Not only have we gotten WAY more done for the next build than is typical following a public release, if all goes well with this job, my money stresses will stop impacting my ability to write and we can settle into a nice, smooth update schedule. Up until now, I've been forced to rely on the income from WCA to pay things like rent and groceries, which as made writing stressful because of the perceived "need to get something good out." Y'all have been wonderfully patient with me and all the shit that's happened over the past few years and into the present.

THAT BEING SAID... Necro and I are currently the only remaining members of Team EmberWings at this point. Boogle's life, unfortunately, got a bit busy, and his priorities are elsewhere. We wish him luck in his future endeavors.

This means we are looking for a poser. Lemme pull up the job posting in the Discord:

If that sounds like you, do send me a message.
That's all for now! Fingers crossed the good luck continues and trickles down to WCA!

If you're referring to Nemlyn here, no, no she is not. She's quite a bit heavier in the front than our night shift officer.
Sadly, the skin shader I need for her is deprecated and I can't seem to find another one. Development on her story may be delayed until the modpack reintroduces this shader or I can find a replacement.

[PROGRESS REPORT] End of Hell + New Promo Pack​

Hoo. April was one hell of a month, and it ended with a week of 9-5 training sessions. So I was back and forth between daytime training and overnight security shifts. Heck, just this Friday, I worked a total of 16 hours in one day. And thankfully, that is all over.

Starting tomorrow, my work schedule changes and solidifies a bit, and work on WCA resumes. I've been missing it something fierce. I've been getting the assets together to do what I want to do with these next two story episodes, and it's all coming together nicely.

I also have something else for the public! SubscribeStar and Patreon supporters already have this, but for everyone else, here's a new pinup pack! It features a ton of shots by Necro with the game's logo on it that you can post wherever you like if you want to support the game by word of mouth!

I have more exciting news for you, but it pertains to Season 2, so I'll make a separate post there. Still looking for a poser, by the way, so if you have experience with HS2 or Ai Shoujo, lemme know.

Just caught up on this and boy do I appreciate the variety of body types. I'd forgotten how many deliciously large bosomed women with varying body styles there were in this game. And as a preferer of large boobs, who doesn't care too much aesthetically about the body shape those large boobs are attached to it's nice to not be trapped in the land of hilariously small waisted women that all somehow tower over MC (not that that's bad either, just often overplayed).

how long till s2 is done?

how long till s2 is done?

Done? Like as in the game is finished with no more updates? I have no idea. Could be another year or so for the main story, and that's not counting all the characters' side stories, OR the DLC character stories.

Tha feckin' Irish blather is shite.

All this stuff about respecting goblins and lesbians and stuff but you manage to mock Irish people.
May the divil take you away an hour before the dear Lord finds out what happened.

 

[tmu500]

I think it would a while for us to get season 1 rewrite. I rather wait for season 1 rewrite completion then continue with season 2.

So we've tried a few times to have people who are actually FROM Ireland rewrite Aoibheann's dialogue to be more natural and accurate and it's fallen flat on its face every time because for some reason every Irish person I've asked for help doesn't actually rewrite any sentences, just gives vague commentary. Unfortunately, that doesn't help me. I need examples I can replicate. Rather than cut her from the game, I took a vote in the Discord server about whether or not to keep trying with Irish vernacular or alter Aoibheann's history and have her be Irish but grown up in Scotland, as we've quite a few Scottish people in the Discord who straight up type in brogue just naturally. Scottish dialogue won in a landslide, so unless I get someone from Ireland that I can work with on every single line of her dialogue, she'll likely sound more Scottish in the rewrite.

This is like my 4th apology to the Irish people at this point. I did fuggin weeks of research hoping to get that dialogue right but well... here we are again.

I gave you very detailed help on Discord, you stopped messaging me ages ago

Yours was one of the attempts I was talking about. What I needed was someone to actually rewrite her dialogue so it would sound natural for anyone from Ireland to read so I could see what proper Irish would look like, and then work with me on a line-by-line basis as I rewrote all of her dialogue under their direction and approval. You left most of her dialogue untouched and instead left paragraphs and paragraphs of explanation, which really doesn't help because I learn far better from example than explanation. Better from showing than telling. And everyone who has offered to help thus far has done a ton of telling, but not a lot of showing. Here's what I'm talking about:

I needed a full, honest-to-goodness rewrite of somewhere around 20 of her lines, from scratch, the way a real Irish person would talk if they had a thicker accent and grew up speaking Gaeilge. When I got your file and found most of her lines untouched or with one/two word edits rather than a nice, fully-rewritten section to give me a good sense of how she SHOULD be talking, I kinda gave up. I didn't know how to go about expressing that this was not what I asked for without feeling like I was being ungrateful for the time, and I also didn't want to go about being all demanding with someone who was really just here to enjoy the game. So I dropped the issue and started thinking of other solutions. There WERE good suggestions in there, such as the use of the term Gaeilge and having Aoibheann correct him when he says Irish Gaelic. But I was hoping for a good, solid example of how she should be speaking in conversation and didn't get that from ya.

And again, I don't wanna sound ungrateful. There's stuff in there that's absolutely useful and I value the time you put in. My brain just does not handle exposition the way it handles examples.

I'm thinking these people just like to complain. I may be wrong but this is just a bunch of crap in my opinion. It's a game not a fucking documentary. If they want perfectly spoken Irish when it's not your native language I think they are expecting too much. I mean look at how many people butcher english in games. I happens so often we gave it a name and that broken english is now called engrish. I think they are grossly overreacting and just making noise for the sake of making noise. As you said this is your 4th damn apology. They need to get over themselves and just enjoy your great game or play something else.

I think it's fine. People who complain just like to do so. I actually enjoy the way she talks.
