This week I added the new hair system, which, took some time to figure out. I needed to introduce a third layer into it so I could deal with more complex layering and hairstyles.
I also disconnected hair color from the styling, which was technically a bit of a challenge (since not all hair styles have all colors) but I got it working.
I got to my second challenge and added the system to deal with breasts when they are in a bra. Until now she was nude, so her breasts were hanging loose. In order to dress her, I needed to make sure I had a set of breast graphics which would fit in bras. It took some setting up and figuring out, but that is in as well.
Finally I spent some time doing minor polishing of graphics and also adding right click functionality to go through the options in reverse, which wasnt as easy as I hoped because of how many exceptions I have within my buttons.
Next week I will be looking into figuring out a solution for the ever growing UI. Possibly splitting it up so there are less options on screen at a time. Other than that I will be working on graphics more now since most of my big technical hurdles have been taken care of.
Thank you very much for the support. See you next week!
