Exclusive Rewards in NS2!

Sup peeps,

It's time to stick some naughty exclusive content into the NS2 Prototype builds, as a thank you to supporters dropping a few extra dollars in the budget each month.

I've been working with some pros to implement Patreon & SubscribeStar authentication in-game, which will open a browser window to ask for your Patreon / SubscribeStar deets, and will then give you your unlocks.

Players will only have to auth once per month, or at most once per build, so it should be a very streamlined process that doesn't get in the way. And to give some peace of mind, since everyone is rightfully mad at the constant data mining that goes on in tech - no gameplay activity is collected or shared by Naughty Sandbox. Privacy, especially when it comes to lewdness, is very fucking important to me as a creator and a consumer of this kinda content, so this auth process is and will only ever be used to give the correct reward tier, and after that, the game doesn't know who you are.

So with dat out the way, exclusives are gonna be rolled out each month, with the first coming next week - paddling / spanking & a slow motion slider, exclusive to the $4 Thirsty tier & above!

Character Creator Additions - Coming This Week

Hey peeps,

Few additions to the CC coming in a build this week. There are numerous lip controls for changing the shape of the lips, on top of the general size sliders.

There's also now cheek, jaw, chin & brow sliders, overall face shape sliders, and an epicanthic fold slider for asian & eastern european eyes, + 5 types of eyelash (eyebrow variations to come). This build will make it possible to create a larger range of proportional differences.

And - Hair Colors! Currently the root & tip color can be controled separately, it may get more indepth in the future but this is a good starting point for now. Only the physical / cinematic hairstyles can have their color changed right now, If anyone is running with the solid stylized hairstyles, I'll be adding support for those to change color a little later.

It should be possible to get closer to the desired target look with these new additions, but more improvements are still to come!

NS2 Character Creator Update - Part 1

Yoo,

Sorry for the wait! As I think I mentioned, builds would usually be out more frequently than they have been this month, but I've had some major internet trouble with uploading so it's all packed into this one bitching update.

Anyway - Part 1 of what will be a hugely extensive character customization suite is ready to download, features outlined below.

Skin Color

An obvious addition to any CC, can now change color of the skin tone. Color isn't limited to realistic tones, can have fantasy skin colors too.

Eyes

Continuing on from the previous post, I've built a pretty insane Eye Creator. I have some fun stuff planned to add here, such as the ability to have contact lenses spin, and obviously way more contact lens options. This set of customization options only affect the eyeball itself, more atual eye shapes will be added to the new Face Tab soon.

Face Tab

This is a more experimental feature and it may change over time based on feedback. Instead of having a huge list of sliders, face proportions are set by plots on a graph. Each graph contains up to 3 plots, which are positioned with Right, Left & Middle click of your mouse within the box.

The amount of customization available in the Face Tab admittedly isn't as much as I'd like, as there's no Jaw, Cheekbones, Ears, etc, sections. But they will be coming in the next update and hopefully allow for a wider range of faces to be created.

Currently it may be frustrating if you're trying to achieve a certain look, with the limited amount of controls available. But I'll be working with playtesters and experimenting more to make this way nicer and more extensive.

FYI - My UI skills suck and it is possible to expand too many sections that the list cuts out at the bottom. The Heart Icon can be clicked to minimize the "Health and Wellbeing" section to make more room for the rest of the UI.

New Hair

Like, a ridiculous amount of new, fully physics simulating Cinematic Quality hair. I think there are 9 new styles, and more will continue to be added. This addition was a direct result of a Discord member request for pigtails / twintails, so another reason to jump into the Discord server, since bugging me for stuff might get your request in the game.

Discord Share

The Character Cards (your character's save file) can now be uploaded directly to Discord from in-game. This is opt-in, of course, and uploads your Character Card anonymously to the Naughty Sandbox Discord Server. This doesn't require a Discord account, and it's posted by a bot in the server, with some automatically assigned emojis depending on your character design.

Hopefully as the Creation features and support for the project increases, the Character Share channel will act as a very nice archive of people's creations, to pick and chose from.

The Character Card screen also has a new Pause Snapshot button, to give you more control over the snapshot and so you don't accidentally save out characters as they're blinking.

And some small things:

Feature - Hair options and other UI bits which let you choose options, now highlight the option you've chosen. Obviously it was trash before and you didn't really know what was selected.

Bug - Adding Paint to a character locks the skin tone color. This is not really "by design", but there is a reason for it which I can't tackle right now. A workaround is simply to remove the paint, set your desired skin color, and apply the paint again.

Bug - Adding Paint to characters with a non default skin tone can look bizarre, this is a color blending issue that I'm gonna look into fixing. Most things look absolutely fine, but subtle things like makeup may look too bright on darker skinned characters.

Wew I think that's it, Build link will be posted in a sec in a private post, THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!! <3
