Dev Update - 2024/04/12
Hey everyone,
Lots of work this week with kinda slow progress. At least number-wise.
The reason is simple: I need to set up all environments for the coming scenes.
While the first half of Chapter 5 used environments I already had set up (except for one), the second half is all new environments.
So I spent p...

Hey everyone,
Another week passed and Easter was the busy and chaotic time I expected. It's good that it's behind us now. ;-)
Thanks to the 4-day weekend (Friday and Monday were days off here), I expected to get lower numbers done this week (days off usually mean days spent with the family).
Well... I'd say the...

From time to time I come up with an idea or want to try some new assets, lighting, etc.
That usually results in some special renders.
Most of the time they feature characters from the game but are not related to the game other than that.
With that in mind, here you go. :-)
Dev Update - 2024/03/28
Hey everyone,
A day earlier this week because of the upcoming Easter Weekend.
And because of Easter this and next week will be pretty short work-wise because the next 4 days will be filled with family stuff.
Following last week's update, I've been still fighting the random restarts while rendering in queue.

Preview renders - 2024/03/22
Since last week was only 3 preview images, this week has one more :-)

Hey everyone,
This week has been somewhere between busy and annoying.
I'll start with the annoying part. My PC started to reboot randomly out of nowhere. Not reproducible.
Sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes after 8 hours. Sometimes when trying to render, sometimes while being idle.
But most of the time b...
Poll on image quality
Hey everyone,
This poll is for Mercenary and up tiers, I'll post a public version within the next few days.
I'll weigh the results of the polls accordingly, which means the result here will have a higher influence on my decision than the public one.
As of now, TNT is compressed to webp/webm 90% quality to red...
Preview renders - 2024/03/15
Not a lot of renders to choose from this week and it was kinda hard to find some that don't give away too much of the scene dynamic.

Hey everyone,
time for another update.
Here it is: I can't see the DAZ timeline tool anymore.
My goal for this week was to finish the scene I was working on and wrap up my next test build.
I somehow ended up with 11 more animations in the render queue and spent most of this week looking at the said DAZ tool....
Dev Update - 2024/03/08
Hey everyone,
another week has gone by and it's time for a new Dev Log.
It has been a pretty normal week with normal progress.
I'm posing and rendering my way through the animations and static renders needed for the current scene and will do so for most of next week.
When I'm done with that, it's finally ...

Hey everyone,
This week has been pretty busy with work as it's usually that way at the end/start of the month. Next week will be busy too with all the stuff that needs to be done at the start of the month.
At least, the private side of things is pretty chill at the moment so I still have enough time to work on the g...
Chapter 5 preview animation
Heya,
Dev Log comes later today, I'll start with an animation preview this week.
A second preview animation can be found on my Discord server in the art channel.
It's NSFW so I can't upload it to Youtube.
Elea special renders
Just like with Fiona a while back, I did a set of special renders for Elea.
4k versions attached below.
Dev Update - 2024/02/23
Hey everyone,
Nothing spectacular to announce today... which is probably a good thing these weeks.
I made some good progress this week and reached the animation-heavy parts of the current scenes I'm working on.
So the next week, and probably the week after, will be mostly animation work.
To avoid dragging ...
Dev Update - 2024/02/16
Hey everyone,
it's time for the usual Dev Log.
As I mentioned last week, this week has been pretty busy with family stuff and the numbers were expected to be lower than last week.
So let's just get to the depressing numbers for this week...
I finished 0 animations this week which is 100% less than last week ...
Dev Update - 2024/02/09
Hey everyone,
It's Friday. This time for real. Time for the new dev log...
This week was characterized by changed plans.
Last week I wrote, that I'd work on animations and that it would be the last scenes before the main part of the Chapter.
Both turned out to be bullshit...
I decided to change (ex...
Fiona special renders
Hey everyone,
it's Fri... oh wait... Dev Log is coming tomorrow, as usual :-)
I just did a short set of Fiona renders because I wanted to try a few things with lighting and some assets.
You're the first one to see the results.
Have a nice Thursday-not-Friday,
Ceolag
Steam Next Fest starts tomorrow
so I did a promo render for that. 4k attached below.
Dev Update - 2024/02/02
Hey everyone,
this Dev Log will be shorter than the last ones since this week has been pretty normal.
No stories of me getting ill, hard disks dying, and so on. Sorry, not sorry. ;-)
Although the week was pretty busy with work (end/start of the month usually is) and a bit of family stuf...
