Weekly Update 25/2024
Good morning, dear wedding guests!
I hope you all slept well.
Unfortunately, I hit a roadblock this week, so I don't have a behind-the-scenes video to share today. Let me explain. I started working on the Charity Ball in PAM's large conference hall on Wednesday. I planned to work on the pictures on Friday and record part of the process on video. However, my mind kept drifting back to the first event in the game a couple of weeks ago, where the girls made a stunning appearance on the catwalk, showcasing their lingerie. I still consider that one of my best creations.
I wanted to, if not repeat, then at least approach that level of quality. So, I started experimenting with ideas, and now I have 32 catwalk animations. I'm unsure if I can render them all on time. I've already arranged with the marketing department to use his PC and GPU for some animations.
There is still much work ahead as the ballroom needs to be redecorated. This event will be a themed historical costume ball featuring celebrities, business representatives, and city administrators. Looking at my plan, I almost regret not opting for something more modest. But I'm almost excited about this ambitious idea and can't wait to see the results.
I've scheduled early access for July 12. Let's see if I can make it. Keep your fingers crossed!
Here are the links to the promised v2.2 version of my updated Renpy engine. If you are brave enough, please check if your save files work (I recommend you back up your old save files):
That's all for today. The summer solstice is here, so Nemiegs is off to make cheese, drink beer, jump over the fire, and search for the fern flower. I'll be back to my virtual girls on Tuesday.
Have a great weekend, and thank you for your support!
Regards,
Nemiegs
