Hi hi!
So progress continues which is good - albeit on a somewhat mixed path. I didn't get as many renders done this weekend as I was hoping largely due to being unhappy with my vaginas. Well not mine, obvs! But the girl's.

I said a while ago I'd been experimenting with file size. So far I tend to render as PNG and then compress to JPEG. This does save a whole heap of space on each file and, so far, hasn't been really noticeable in terms of quality loss.

2019-08-12 09:27:31 +0000 UTC View PostSo where are we? Well the script and plot blocks are done; the higher tier specials are done and the two most complex pieces of the game (Chris and Sarah's VR) are done subject to some more tweaks.
Chris - I just need a little pause from and then to play again to make sure I'm happ...

2019-07-26 07:24:45 +0000 UTC View PostSo I asked the top tier to vote on the next Scarlet Pirate and it seems a continuation of where we left off is in order.
I'm sure the dear old SP will be in safe hands tho. After all her rescuer seems so nice!

Sorry for being a bit quiet the past few days but this absolutely charming fan dropped by. She was -so- interested in the lore!
