Update about stuff and things and the such. Also, a69? (Patreon)

0.8's coming along nice, octane's working wonders and the render count already exceeds that of 0.7. Now I realize that's not saying too much, but it is still incredibly fast compared to my old Iray render setup. Other than that, I don't really got any news on the PL front.

As for a69 tho

It's been like 3 weeks since da release. I figure now's a good time to asses the reception to a69 and I gotta say, I'm positively surprised by peeps' reactions. The amount of shit a69 was getting before release was insane and I figured there'd be no way this would be well received as most people would be going in to it with a negative mindset.

But nah, turns out some of yall really liked it. Which is why it seems a bit dumm for those of you who did, to have to wait potentially years for another release of a69.

So I gotta proposal. 

{{{{POLLS}}}}

The dreaded polls.

A poll goes up somewhere near PL 0.8 release, options are: make PL 0.9 or make a69 0.02

I do an update to whichever game wins, let's say a69 0.02 wins, I make a69 0.02 and immediately after that, without a poll, the game that didn't win, PL, gets an update. Then, once both games have had an update, we have another poll to decide which game gets an update. Sound good?

Answer is no you big dum dum. That's not gud at all. Thing is, I still want to develop PL more than I do a69, I don't want to develop them side by side I guess. So what I was thinking is that, we give PL a sort of preference thingy. My idea is this:

If a69 wins the poll, I make an update for it. Once it's done, I make an update for PL without putting it up to a poll. After the PL update is done as well, we have another poll for which game to update 

HOWEEEVEER 

If PL wins the poll, I make an update for it. Once it's done, we have another poll for which game to update.

So basically a69 doesn't get poll free updates. Meaning it's really up to you all if you want more a69. And even if you do, it still won't stop PL's development. Sound good?

I hope so, if nah, and if yall have some more suggestions for how to do this, I'd love to hear 'em. But tbqh, patreon comments are a bit shit, so if you could possibly, I'd love it if you suggested the suggestifyers on my discord instead, link here plug plug 8::::::Discord.gg/63rBUKa 

Love ya bye
