Hey Boo,
It's a weird week for me because work switched my schedule around for taking the inventory. I usually have Wednesday's off and I take stock of the project and write my public report.
I made slow cooker ribs (That's a crock pot, to my real ones.) today and how that works is I put the ribs in the slow cooker in the morning and let them cook on slow all day. It's a lot of nice build up to some soft tender ribs. Unless, you are an idiot, like Raymond. I spend all day occasionally walking around the house and wonder "What smells good?"
I'm sitting at the day job, photo editor open for the last 13 hours according to discord, writing too much about the philosophy of game assets and trying to purchase productivity, which I don't think anyone will care about, and I'm tired. In between the heavy rain and kicking out children, I don't know why we're open today and why I'm here today.
Work is okay.
The backers will tell you that there was a really solid week that I made me super proud. I thought I could lean into that progress. Feed off that momentum but no, never again. bye-bye.
My render queue caught up.
Every image from the game needs to be posed and renders. THere is the useful thing called a render queue, which is a list of saved scenes that my pc will render while I'm away. It's very convenient and works with animations. So, there is always
something being made for the game and while the queue is going I feel safe and productive even if I'm not actively posing for the game.
The last thing in my queue is animations. I'll normally get through what I made on my days off and at nights and then the queue starts churning away on an animation.
When my render queue last ran out, I opted to make a new animation. I have an estimated less than four hundred renders to go. So, maybe it's a good thing that they are all done. It seems animations are the last things some people finish and what makes their time in between updates drag. This is the first time that I have focused this much on animations, so I'm learning and taking not of this data point. I reserve the right to go nuts and animation nuts.
Contest
From the home of reddit there's the AVN Times. It's a digital only, free only magazine that reports on adult visual novels mainly from the perspective of r/avnlovers.
The size thing is a little ridiculous. It's bigger than 8k with an odd width and length ratio. My scene with the main four was cool and looked okay on my monitor but with closer inspection, I saw rendering defects that I don't usually get and don't normally effect me.
Here's the contest reject.
