Progress 30.01.2023

 

Good morning, world! Well, I guess you can call it a morning at this hour somewhere. Although, I need to reinstall Daz Studio at some point, annoying. Luckily, I have stored all the content packets I use, so there is no need to download those again. Well, at least it gives me the reason to install the bigger hard drive, finally.

So, where to begin? Rendering? Yeah, that's a good place to start, as always. It's going well. I had to do a scene with a variant over the weekend, but that's sometimes unavoidable. About two and half scenes technically left. Well, two but one of the scenes is in two parts, sort of.

Writing. It's going nicely as well. I got the update 28 plotted out. I just need to type the remaining bits. I have to say that 27 and 28 are interesting. Probably something is going to spill to 29 as well.

So what is this? A bit of an unusual setup... I wonder who they are meeting with.

The fantasy render on Friday irritated me to no end because I know I can do better. So I did. I changed the environment and then just improved the bits that irritated me. And yes, it's Alexander. I'm not that far into it that I have all secondary characters made.

This is titled "graduation day." I probably won't show the student era of the MC that much in the VN, but it will be referenced at a few points, at least according to the story notes I've written down so far. Although now that I see it, I need to change the material for the wood in the arena. It looks a bit... plastic.

The worlds I do aren't necessarily the safest places to live. Danger lurks behind every corner. So "graduating" from certain training involves live combat trials, whether against monsters or fellow students. But why are they focusing on the MC? Perhaps too many dad jokes...
