Hello everyone!
As you might have noticed, these updates haven't been weekly lately. The last few have had a week's gap, and this one is no exception. The thing is, progress has been slow, and I didn't have much to report. But that doesn't mean work has stopped! It's just moving at a slower pace than usual.
I've finally finished the updated guide that everyone's been asking for. It now covers the entire game, including the latest version. I've also added sections on bonus renders and lewd scenes, detailing how to unlock any content you might be missing. It's available to patrons on the $10 tier or as a separate paid file. You can get it here.
Work on updating the old code for translations hasn't stopped either. It's slow but steady. I think I'll wrap it up by the end of the year, and then we can prepare translations for the major languages.
I've also started prepping for the Steam launch. I hope to get the page up by month's end, but there's still a lot to do. At minimum, creating promo materials.
On the art side, I've spent a ton of time preparing characters, crowds\extras, and environments for upcoming scenes. In terms of numbers, I haven't advanced much since the last update, maybe 30 renders. I'm expecting to focus heavily on art next week, as I just finished a major environment for the next scene today. Unfortunately, I'm running into VRAM shortages again. So, I'm eyeing 5090 deals more often, maybe a holiday gift to myself, we'll see. New Daz version and drivers seems to fix all previous issues with it.
For dialogues and code, there's been only minor progress while planning the scene I'm currently working on. I haven't touched future scenes yet.
I'm not entirely satisfied with my pace, but I'm pleased with the stability and steady progress. Tasks are getting done slowly but surely, that's what matters most. In my current situation, it's the best I can manage.
Next week, I'll try to post the first preview of this update, the cosmetic poll for Riley, and polls for wallpapers and special renders. Links to september wallpapers and special renders, if you missed them. I especially like how Octavia's specials turned out this month, super hot! Here's a small teaser:
Thank you for your support, have a great week, and take care!
