Big News (At least I think it is...)
🕑 Added 2018-02-07 20:06:50 +0000 UTC Hey all,So for those of you who use the Patreon app, they recently released a new update that allows for somewhat of a Snaptchat story on the app. Basically, I can take pictures or post behind-the-scenes stuff. While I won't do this regularly (for personal privacy reasons) some of you may have saw the pic from last night showing off my shiny new video card. Yesterday I was able to use a chunk of the Patreon cash to upgrade my video card to a 1050TI. While not top-of-the line, this reduced my render times from 12+ hours per picture to around 1.5 hours per picture. This is a massive change! In short, this allows for me to try a few new things out.
1) You'll see more layered clothing like the picture above. Notice Braden has undies and shorts on and they're stacked. This will be more realistic for undressing scenes. While I could do this before, the testing of the collision interactions would literally take days to figure out. So expect more of that.
2) I can now pump out pictures faster. While I am unsure how this will impact the speed of updates, it will certainly allow me to be more efficient which could translate into bigger updates or less time actually writing the game so that I can relax a bit and come back well-rested to write it better.
3)Overall quality will improve. Even though, in the past, it had taken over 12 hours for a picture, many of these pics still were not completed after that period. The new hardware will allow all the game pictures to render to a full 100% now, improving the overall image quality moving forward.
While I mentioned this on the app picture last night, not many people saw it so I want to take time to say "thanks" for the support and hopefully some of you will be pleased to see some of the cash going back into the game.
