Dev Diary, April 12th, 2024
🕑 Added 2024-04-12 12:19:42 +0000 UTCBack to full-time rendering this week, and after last week's extremely annoying scene, this is been much more enjoyable.
I noticed one of the animations rendered really quickly, so I decided to render it in 4k, as it's been on my to-do list to try that.
Of course, the leap in quality is noticeable, but I doubt I'll start doing it for all animations, as the only advantage is that more detail will be preserved when downscaling it to HD (which I do on all the still-renders).
Still, I'd prefer doing 4k rather than 60FPS. After all, if Pixar can render in 30FPS, I'm sure 30FPS is okay in a lewd game, too. But for now, it's just a thought for the future.
I also sorted out a lot of new music for this episode, so that part should be about 90% done.
I've completed 1,286 story renders and 5,622 animated frames. Slightly less than I would have wanted it to be, but having a birthday tends to interfere with work. :)
I'm just about to start working on this episode's main event. I saved it for last because I wanted a huge event where I could incorporate anything I might come up with along the way, which should result in a fairly crazy party.
For the preview, we should be about ready to talk to the girl in the street now. Are you ready for that path?
Have a nice weekend, and stay safe out there.

I wouldn't mind another redhead LI to be honest. That mean it will just another u4ia run I'd have to do to get on her path... lol

Surely you meant 30 faps? Sorry, I'll go back to my bad-puns-cave now 😜

Happy birthday, Drifty! Gimme that "cinematic" 30fps! :D

You had a birthday this past week? Happy birthday Drifty. May you find joy and satisfaction in life surrounded by loved ones.

She is one of the most intriguing and mysterious girls in the game and I'm all for it. Hope she's gonna be one of LI.

So far I've liked the work I've seen in 4K in other AVNs, so I am looking forward to seeing your take on it. The girl in the street always caught my eye and I wondered what her deal was and if she was connected to U4IA. I am really curious to see that now! Oh, and Happy Birthday! :)
