[Episode Gacrux] Progress Update XX (Patreon)

Greetings,

I didn't managed to get everything done until today because I had a busy week. But it will be ready in a few days. A few last review comments have to be included and the secrets are, embarrassingly, still missing. I just didn't had the time this week.

However, the new episode will likely have less bugs than previous versions as I didn't really overhauled any underlying frameworks or systems. So it should be quite stable from the beginning.

Poll Winner for 4K Render Reward

The winner is "Distance" with Stella. I'll start working on it, once the pre-release version is out.

"Preivew" images in this post

Well, I don't want to post any more in-game screenshots as they might spoiler. But I don't want to leave it empty either. So, a while ago I did a few short tests with stable diffusion with some older renders. I wanted to test if it is something that I wanted to include in my workflow maybe. However, with all the prompt handling and the lag of consistency between images it is of no use for me. I like the more realistic look, but I don't want the characters to look different in each shot. However, I take this opportunity to share some of those tests.
