Update will be tomorrow (And a peak at new character sheets)
🕑 Added 2023-05-12 17:29:26 +0000 UTCSadly I won't be able to finish the release for this week in time for today, I didn't intend for these character sheets to take up so much of my time and it's only been 4 days since the last release so I didn't have a ton of time to start with. Poor planning on my part.
Thought once I had a format for the sheets I could just fly through the renders but there's been a ton of tweaking and a ton of little issues.
I was close though, if the 2 animations I set to render overnight didn't have a flying off light that I didn't notice then I likely would have been able to finish by tonight. But, update will be ready to go tomorrow, hopefully around 12-2 EDT though may be a bit later in the day if there are any issues. Not going to hint at release dates after this.
This release will have a sped up tier release as well, same as last time since I'll be a little late and patreon is still being fucky with some annual pledges.
It will start with MVP/HoF and work its way down 1 tier every 12 hours and this will include the fan tier as well.
So this delay actually makes lower tiers get the update faster than they would have before lol
But about the sheets, these are examples and not final images. Things will likely be tweaked a bit more.
I do plan on having a character viewer in the rework and these sheets will be a part of that.
I've shared Alanah's and Bailey's sheets in the discord and I got some good feedback.
The information included for these sheets in these patreon posts will be what is available for the girl in-game. So Anna and Alexis both have hooked up / girlfriend even though that is optional.
And all girls that have been nude in game will have nude variants like the ones shown here.
All girls will have the same pose in these and that's to make it easier on me and to show their differences more clearly.
(All measurements were found by using a daz plug-in and I have no clue how accurate they are tbh.)
Most things on the sheets are pretty self explanatory. And these sheets are up to date with the rework so some of the info may be a little off to the current game.
The "Tier" is what level of main or side character the girls are. (THIS IS AN ESTIMATE AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN TOO LITERALLY. It's ballpark stuff and hasn't been thought about that deeply, it's mainly just to give an idea.)(Also Bailey's sheet in the discord had her as tier 2 but I changed the scale and now she's tier 1. I originally only had Jamie and Shauna in tier 1 but I decided to make them tier 0.)
The scale goes from 0-5 (also an f for family since they're separate)
Jamie and Shauna being tier 0
main girls are tiers 1-3, the level mainly says how much focus they'll have.
Side girls are tiers 4-5.
43's children is mainly for fun and won't make it past 1 for a long time (besides for the occasional twin) but I figured I'd go ahead and include it to hint at some future possibilities.
If you have any questions about other things about the sheets, feel free to ask.
Sorry if this post seems rushed... it is. I'm eager to get back to work on finishing this weekly. I've hit very few dates I've set but I haven't missed by much. Thank you for your patience.
Character Sheets will hopefully be out soon after the update.

I’m grateful to see the Alexis sheet. Some of us really like the slender girls and aren’t into the ginormous badoncks that are so prevalent in this game. Don’t get me wrong. I love the game! I’m just saying it’s nice to see the more slender girls getting more time in the spotlight. Keep up the good work all the way around man!

Like the new look of the sheets, nice work
Nic
I'm looking forward to going back to meet Alexis again again! ;)

Don’t worry Victor we were all noobs once, unfortunately some people forget this

I think the Sims 4 is free to play on steam, just in case I’ve now got you laying awake at night thinking about it 😊and if you ever get an urge to make me love you and your work even more than I already do, stick someone in a skintight red dress and have someone else comment that she looks like Bella Goth

https://www.patreon.com/posts/wvm-s2-c1-e8-b2-82718308 Go to that link and download one of the first set of links there next to the "Windows" by clicking on the "Mega, Google Drive, GoFile" these are all hosting sites for the download, just pick your favorite. Once it is download, you'll need to extract it since it is in a zip. I'll recommend to look up on youtube "How to extract a zip file" It's very easy but it's more complicated to explain through text, Once it is extracted, all you need to do is open the extracted version and double click WVM.exe and the game should be ready for you to play. Sadly you won't have your saves from the web version as I'm not involved in that and they take my game and make it web based. To make replaying easier, you can go into the preferences menu and make sure under the "Skip" menu you select "Unseen Text" Now you can hold control and the game will run through itself quicker. Hope this helps!
😅 I’m new to Ren’py games so I’ve been using a website and I came to Patreon because I couldn’t wait for updates. Is there somewhere I can download the full game? Sorry for being a noob.
Braindrop
Are you trying to install the update only version or trying to download the full game?
Windows, thanks for the reply. I read the usual how to install updates in the posts but PC isn’t my forte.
Braindrop
Lol, I'm not sure. I've personally never played the sims crazily enough. Daz in many ways is just another character creator though so I'm sure there are similarities.
Braindrop
To make it easier to explain. What platform are you playing on? Windows, Mac, or Android?
Is there a walkthrough on how to update for dummies? I’m lost 😅

i have a question, why do some of these girls faces look like they were made in The Sims 4 character creation, is it to do with how Daz works? in some games it's more noticeable than others, sorry this isn't a complaint or a criticism, i just noticed it it one and now i can't stop
DeadMan
Release when you think it's ready.
Labmunky

Joshua Entrekin

Snedden
Keep up the great but BD just don't wear yourself down again. I'm ready for the scene at the end of the last update 😉
Jason Irwin
Now I'm missing Alexis and waiting for her return
Robrth Tapia
ok thanks for the clarification, it's good to see alexis again since the first day until now she hadn't been seen that I remember, hopefully she can join the MC's group
Austin
Thanks for the update
Braindrop
You do not need to install the previous beta to play this next one. You should be good to go. 👍
Robrth Tapia
I have a question I haven't downloaded this latest update waiting for the next one to be released tomorrow if I download that one it doesn't open problems with playing the story of the update from 4 days ago or do I have to have that previously installed before installing tomorrow's update?
Braindrop
I agree and I'm not against putting out something that needs minor tweaks, this particular instance was a bit too egregious as it's a fast paced animation and the light was the main light source in the room so it had a strobe-like effect. 😆 I ran a viewport test before rendering which is how I usually do it but sadly that doesn't pick up lights that don't pass by the camera. Random ass issue but a random goof that happens.

In regards to the animation issues, remember this is a beta: it doesn't have to be perfect. You can release images/animations with errors in them and fix them later.

Take your time
