Chapter 5 - Dev Log #5

Hello, 

So... I'm around 1100 renders in, I've also finished a few animations & work on the phone is also progressing. 

I also increased the weekly hours I put into Blender. I feel like I don't make enough progress there. 

Future Treats will mostly be done there. (At least for the characters I've already ported over.

Speaking about porting people over. 

I more or less successfully ported this bibi over.

There are still some issues that prevent me from really doing some work in Blender... For example, the clothing is a pain in the ass. It keeps clipping and deforming. (Which is why Sasha's nude.) 

I need to understand the issue itself first. 

As soon as the clothing issue is fixed, I should have most of it working for the short stories.  

The expressions are also obviously not working as precisely, but well, I'll find solutions as I go. There's a good chance I will make a Blender Sasha Treat in the near future.

I will also create a Blender cinematic for the new SG Intro. Since I had to remove the old music, the little intro with the raccoon is redundant.  

I already have the license for the new intro music and only need to get it done in Blender. 

It will probably be added with the Chapter 5 Full/Steam release.  

Now that I'm rendering a very big scene in Chapter 5, WiAB's A6000 saved my ass a couple of times. The scene has soooo many people in it.  

SG will get its own A6000 after the Steam release. (Or multiple.)

Sadly, I'm only rendering like 5-9 renders a night. It takes like an hour to open the scene for every single render in the queue. 

The previews today don't show much, but I need to be extremely careful with what I show.  

Maturity.

Deep-rooted resentment.

Zwei Himmelhunde auf dem Weg zur Hölle. (Two celestial dogs on their way to hell.)

I never hype up Chapters, but I have to admit that when it comes to the amount of information & story content, this Chapter tops every other Chapter that has been released yet. 

I'll see you in two weeks.
