Dev Log #7
Hello, This is going to be the last Dev Log before the actual release. I am going to show off some new previews, the new main menu, and say a few words about the current GPU situation.1. GPU situation2. New main menu + other stuff3. Previews + new Nojiko/Mila1. GPU situationAs you all know a few days after I announced that I would release in October, one of my GPUs broke down and I lost 60% of my production assets. It was the worst time to actual...
Dev log 6.5
Hello, Today an unplanned update. In the last update, I told you guys about the strange behavior of one of my GPUs. (The 1080Ti.) It's officially a vegetable now. I don't exactly know what happened because I was at the other PC at that point (Both PC's are on the same monitor) and I was rendering on PC#1 while working on PC #2. It did happen before that the fans of my 1080Ti did suddenly stop and re-start after 4-8 seconds. (The GPU p...
Chapter 3: Dev log #6
Hello, In Dev log 5 I mentioned that this will be the last dev log before the actual release. And in some way this is true, this is will be the last Dev log with actual in-game previews.There will be one more shortly before the release in which I will showcase the new Gallery and its functions. (Those who played my other game might have seen it's gallery. SG's will be similar but with a different design. The overall development is going g...
Chapter 3: Dev log #5
Hello, This post puts the update on 70% finished. This time a smaller Dev Log because I spent the last weeks only rendering and learning Blender.In the last 3 weeks I rendered around 2150 renders for animations and yesterday I finished two "smaller" cinematics.Which puts the render count on around 3200 in total now.I now have to do one smaller cinematic and the slightly more challenging end cinematic.And the rest of the stills, which is e...
Blender diary #2
HelloI did post one of these progress/diary updates before about my progress in Blender.From now on I will call it "Blender diary"Learning a 3D software is lonely and quite stressful. (Thank god I have a blender buddy.)By doing these diaries I am kinda sharing my thoughts, problems, and achievements with you guys to relieve stress and also give you an insight into my work. (And if you can explain something, you understood it.)For those wh...
Chapter 3: Dev log #4
Hello,Dev log #3 also puts the progress bar at 50%.With the new update schedule, this would mean an update but as most of you know, this is the last big 5000 line update with around 30k words.All updates after this one are going to be capped at 2000-2500 lines. (Still big)A lot happened since the last Dev log.. Let's go through it step for step.Chapter 3 marks the last update that is categorized as an Introduction-Update. (Yes, we're stil...
Chapter 3: Dev log #3
Hello,1. General stuff2. Blender progress3. Public preview1. General stuffWiAB Chapter 6 has finally been finished 2 weeks ago with over 6000 renders in total. (Including animation renders)Summer's Gone now has 100% of the resources on it and the 2nd PC does show a significant productivity boost.But I have to be honest and I have to say that the last week was horrible in terms of productivity due to my personal health. I am not sick or so but...
Chapter 3: Dev log #2
Hello,I am making good progress with Chapter 3, even though the WiAB update isn't finished yet.Today's update is about Nami.Due to my strive for quality. I have to get rid of her old hair.It's like a thorn in my eye.Also, I am animating more and more scenes. The new hairs are also a lot better to animate.I want 2 hairstyles for almost every female.One open hair.One ponytail/updo hair.It was no problem finding a suitable ponytail for N...
Chapter 3: Dev log #1
Hello,1. Octane is dead.2. Hand-sculpted character + preview1. Octane is dead.As I told you guys, I was transitioning from Iray to Octane.But, Octane broke my heart.I did spend 90% of my time fixing bugs in Octane. Trying to find workarounds, etc.I then saw that many bugs were already there in 2017 and earlier versions.So, I asked myself the question.. "Do they even plan on fixing it? I am paying Full-price subscription." and I came acros...
Development start for Chapter 3.
Hello,It's time.After 3000+ renders, my old PC is finishing up the update for "Where it all began".This is probably the right time to announce that my new PC arrived. 2 days ago to be exact but I had to set it up first. I did lose some data like some Premiere Pro projects but nothing too major.Everything seems to work fine now.I already mentioned it in the Patreon post for WiAB, I will just copy it here.. It's a rather big but imp...
A small investment was made.
Good day!Corona is currently abusing the world and this leads to Nvidia, delaying their new GPU release. My planned investment of 4x 3080Ti's + Threadripper 3970x will be delayed.Most likely to next year because I have to wait for the custom 3080Ti's. I need the best cooling I can get and we all saw what happened to the founder 2080Ti editions.And I am going to have 4 of them in a box.I certainly won't go a full year without an invest...
Dev update Chapter 3
Good morning!Sorry for being so silent on this Patreon. I was very busy working 13-14h a day on WiAB (My first game). Whos update is now ~ 95% ready.(WiAB and SG are in the same universe. You can acquire a lot of background knowledge from playing WiAB. But a part of WiAB will be reworked in the future, so you might want to wait for that.)I am currently driving a bad rig (1x 1080Ti.) and the new update for WiAB has 2000+ renders.So it took me long...

Dev update #2
Hello!Remember when I said "Ocean won't change anything and will just render what I send him?"Yeah, about that.. he refused to render the stuff I sent him.As we looked over the renders I'd done before, we came to the conclusion that we need to re-do some of them. Quite a lot actually.I'm still not really familiar with Daz and I'm still trying to find my style. So Ocean gave me some good advice and I've put it to use.As...

Thank you very much!The initial release was planned for mid July.Chapter 2 is around 87% done.Due to the low priority I had to give the game, I wasn't able to finish it yet."Then why the hell did you give it a low priority?!"I have some pretty big am...
