Status Update #22 (Patreon)

Hello there, everyone!

This week we continued working on a lewd scene, figuring out which parts to animate and how far to take it. Too short is lame, but too long and the scene drags on. The build-up however is the important part, and the screenplay for that is coming along nicely.

We also worked on a couple of our sets, reworking some props for them and changing them to fit our current vision. The camera overlay we showed a couple status updates back is also going to be changed a bit.

Next up, some Ember planning and dialogue.

Spooky happening

There was a minor scare in the form of missing PC files. DazStudio.exe was suddenly gone and we got to learn about an error we've never seen before: "A device which does not exist was specified." Huh, weird. After a quick PC restart, the whole drive was now gone.

Great.

After an hour of panic, getting ready to sort backups and Googling everything about the issue, it suddenly worked fine after a cold boot. No action required... yet.

A stark reminder to keep backups ready and working. One day you might need them!

Weekly summary:

Other news

This month we added a couple of extra options to the Special Render poll for Influencers, Helen and Cassandra. And currently Cassandra is in the lead for February, closely followed by Ms.Hill and Sophie.

February might very well be the first win for Cassie, or a lady outside of the main cast in general!

Have a nice and comfy weekend, everyone.

Cheers,

Robison & Npx
